ASE Technology Holding Co., Ltd. Reports Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year of 2018

 

Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C., January 30, 2019 – ASE Technology Holding Co., Ltd. (TAIEX: 3711, NYSE: ASX) (“We”, “ASEH”, or the “Company”) was established following the completion of the merger between Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc. (“ASE”) and Siliconware Precision Industries Co., Ltd. on April 30, 2018. ASE is the Company’s predecessor entity; therefore, the financial results of the Company for periods before merger are prepared under the assumption that the Company owned 100% shareholdings of ASE at the very beginning. The financial results after April 30, 2018, including both 4Q18 and 3Q18, reflect full quarters of combined operations following the completion of the merger. The financial results before April 30, 2018 reflect the operations of ASE and its subsidiaries prior to the establishment of the Company. As a result, the Company’s financial results for 4Q18 and 3Q18 may not be comparable to that for 4Q17. In addition, the Company’s financial results for the year ended December 31, 2018 may not be comparable to that for the year ended December 31, 2017. ASEH, the leading provider of semiconductor manufacturing services in assembly and test, today reported unaudited net revenues1 of NT$114,028 million for 4Q18, up by 36% year-over-year and up by 6% sequentially. Net income attributable to shareholders of the parent for the quarter totaled NT$5,446 million, down from a net income attributable to shareholders of the parent of NT$6,246 million in 4Q17 and down from a net income attributable to shareholders of the parent of NT$6,257 million in 3Q18. Basic earnings per share for the quarter were NT$1.28 (or US$0.083 per ADS), compared to adjusted basic earnings per share of NT$1.48 for 4Q17 and basic earnings per share of NT$1.47 for 3Q18. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter were NT$1.24 (or US$0.081 per ADS), compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of NT$1.42 for 4Q17 and diluted earnings per share of NT$1.43 for 3Q18.

 

For the full year of 2018, the Company reported net revenues of NT$371,092 million and net income attributable to shareholders of the parent of NT$25,262 million. Basic earnings per share for the full year of 2018 were NT$5.95 (or US$0.396 per ADS). Diluted earnings per share for the full year of 2018 were NT$5.84 (or US$0.389 per ADS).
