Note: (a) See GAAP To Non-GAAP Reconciliation on page 2.
In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP) above, management utilizes a measure of
operating income, net income and earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis that excludes certain
income/expenses as above to better assess operating performance. Those non-GAAP financial measures
exclude certain items, such as share-based
compensation expenses, losses arising from the judgment to reinstate redeemed shares (see
discussion under Tele-Art Litigation below), restructuring costs, realized gain or loss on the
disposal of marketable securities, investments or interests in subsidiaries, impairment loss on
marketable securities or goodwill, or other infrequent or unusual items. Please see page 2 for the
reconciliation of GAAP operating to non-GAAP operating income and GAAP net income and earnings per
share to non-GAAP net income and earnings per share, and page 8 for a detailed discussion of
managements use of non-GAAP financial information.

Losses arising from the judgment to reinstate redeemed shares were determined for the three
and twelve months ended December 31, 2006 after taking into account the total issue price of
the 1,017,149 redeemed shares at the market price of Nam Tai shares on November 20, 2006 (the
date of the Privy Council judgment); the estimated costs and expenses of BOC and former
Tele-Arts liquidator that Nam Tai expects will be claimed in connection with the Privy
Council litigation proceedings; and a reversal of amounts Nam Tai previously reserved in its
financial statements for potential losses to be incurred as result of the share redemptions
(see discussion under Tele-Art Litigation below). |
FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR END REVIEW
The electronic manufacturing services industry in which the Company operates experienced a
challenging year in 2006 and Nam Tai was not immune. Nam Tais fourth quarter 2006 net sales
declined as a result of decrease in sales from telecommunication components assembly. Fourth
quarter operating income declined as a consequence of competitive pricing pressures requiring us to
lower unit prices. Although for the full year of 2006 Nam Tai experienced growth in business
volume from existing customers, this growth was insufficient to offset the adverse effects of
pressure to reduce unit prices, resulting in lower operating income and net profit on both a GAAP
and non-GAAP basis for 2006 compared to 2005.
Nam Tais net sales in the fourth quarter of 2006 were $229.6 million, a decrease of 7.1% as
compared to $247.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. Operating loss in the fourth quarter of
2006, which took into account $14.5 million of non-cash losses arising from the judgment to
reinstate the Redeemed Shares (as discussed under Tele-Art litigation below) was $2.6 million, or
$0.06 per share (diluted), a decrease of 117.9% as compared to operating income of $14.5 million,
or $0.33 per share (diluted) for the same period last year. Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2006
was $2.3 million, a decrease of 118.3% as compared to $12.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2005.
Non-GAAP operating income in the fourth quarter of 2006 was $12.0 million, or $0.27 per share
(diluted), a decrease of 17.2% as compared to Non-GAAP operating income of $14.5 million, or $0.33
per share (diluted) for the same period last year. Non-GAAP net income in the fourth quarter of
2006 was $12.3 million, or $0.28 per share (diluted), a decrease of 18.0% as compared to $15.0
million, or $0.34 per share (diluted), in the fourth quarter of 2005.
For the year ended December 31, 2006, Nam Tais net sales were $870.2 million, representing its
eighth consecutive year of top-line growth, and an increase of 9.1% as compared to $797.2 million
in the same period last year. Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $42.5
million, or $0.97 per share (diluted), a decrease of 19.3.% as compared with $52.7 million, or
$1.22 per share (diluted), in 2005. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $40.8
million, or $0.93 per share (diluted), a decrease of 20.6% as compared to $51.3 million or $1.19
per share (diluted) in 2005.
Non-GAAP operating income for the full year of 2006 was $48.6 million, or $1.11 per share
(diluted), a decrease of 9.5% as compared to Non-GAAP operating income of $53.7 million, or $1.24
per share (diluted) for the full year of 2005. Non-GAAP net income for the full year of 2006 was
$48.2 million, or $1.10 per share (diluted), a decrease of 3.8% as compared to $50.1 million, or
$1.16 per share (diluted), for the full year of 2005.
The Companys financial position remains strong and net cash provided by operating activities in
the fourth quarter of 2006 was $19.8 million. The Company ended the quarter with $221.1 million
cash on hand after capital expenditures of $6.4 million and third quarter dividends of $16.6
million paid to shareholders on October 21, 2006.

COMPANY OUTLOOK
Nam Tais management team remains focused on growing both sales and profitability. The Company
plans to continue our strategy of customer base expansion and products diversification. In
particular, management expects that sophisticated products requiring high technology manufacturing
capabilities will drive our growth. Although continuing competition and resulting pricing
pressures from customers is expected to remain a significant challenge for the electronics
manufacturing services industry in the coming years, expansion plans are in progress to further the
vertical integration capabilities of our component sub-assembly business, with the goal of
continuing to improve our production technology, and to increase capacity to satisfy expected
growth in business volume.
Nam Tais expansion plans to increase capacity include the construction of additional manufacturing
facilities in Wuxi and Shenzhen, the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). In December 2006, the
Company paid $1.3 million to acquire the land in Wuxi upon which its new facilities are to be
built. We are working with our building consultants in the design of the facilities. We currently
expect that construction of our Wuxi manufacturing facilities and production of flexible printed
circuit (FPC) in them to commence in mid- 2007 and at the end of 2008, respectively.
Nam Tai is in progressing on schedule with its plans to implement FPC production in our existing
facilities in Shenzhen. Management expects that this new capability in Shenzhen will enhance Nam
Tais competitiveness by enabling it to offer customers more diversified services. Our products
have obtained the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standards for Safety. Our goal is to begin mass
production of FPCs at our Shenzhen facilities in the second quarter of 2007.
Despite a challenging 2006, which we expect to continue in 2007, our target of 12% sales growth
for 2007 remains unchanged. With our aggressive expansion plans and strong customer relationships,
I am optimistic about the long-term prospects of the Company, said Mr. Warren Lee, Nam Tais Chief
Executive Officer.

4. Tele-Art Litigation
As previously announced, judgment was rendered on November 20, 2006 by the Lords of the Judicial
Committee of the Privy Council of the United Kingdom (the Privy Council) declaring that the
redemptions by Nam Tai of its common shares beneficially owned by Tele-Art Inc. (Tele-Art) on
January 22, 1999 and August 12, 2002 were nullities and that the register of members of Nam Tai
(i.e., Nam Tais shareholders register) should be rectified to reinstate the redeemed shares
together with any other shares which have since accrued by way of exchange or dividend. Nam Tai
received the Order from the Privy Council on January 9, 2007 to rectify the share register of Nam
Tai by registering such 1,017,149 Nam Tai shares (the Redeemed Shares) in the name of Bank of
China (Hong Kong) Limited (BOC). Since the court judgment was determined in 2006, Nam Tai
accounted for the obligation to reinstate the Redeemed Shares at their fair value (i.e. market
closing price) on November 20, 2006, the date of the judgment. Based on the proceedings with
respect to the liquidation of Tele-Art, any proceeds from sales of the Redeemed Shares by BOC after
the deduction of valid claims of BOC and other costs and expenses of the liquidation of Tele-Art,
together with any Redeemed Shares remaining after BOCs sales, are to be shared among Nam Tai and
two other unsecured creditors on a pro-rata basis up to the amount of their valid claims against
Tele-Art. Nam Tai has been advised that of the unsecured claims against Tele-Art in the
liquidation, approximately 95 percent consist of Nam Tais judgment against Tele-Art that the High
Court of Justice in the British Virgin Islands awarded to Nam Tai in the amount of $34 million,
plus interest, that resulted from damages Nam Tai suffered from a 1993 injunction obtained by
Tele-Art. The remainder of the unsecured claims against Tele-Art in the liquidation consist of Nam
Tais claims for other amounts owed to it by Tele-Art, which aggregate to approximately 4 percent
of the total
Page 5 of 15
unsecured claims in the liquidation, with the remainder of the aggregate unsecured
claims consisting of those of the two other unsecured creditors. The amount actually recoverable, if any, by Nam Tai will depend
on the price realized by the liquidator when Nam Tais Redeemed Shares are sold to satisfy
creditors claims against Tele-Art and thus is dependent on the market price at the time of sale as
well as the actual amounts of the claims of BOC and the other creditors against Tele-Art and
ultimate expenses of the liquidator. Because of uncertainties relating the timing of BOCs actions
with respect to the disposition of the Redeemed Shares, including the timing of any sales and the
amount of proceeds to be realized, the actual amount of BOCs claims, including interest, costs and
expenses, whether BOC actually remits any excess proceeds or Redeemed Shares to the liquidator for
the benefit of Tele-Arts unsecured creditors, the uncertain effect of any claims that Nam Tai may
assert against BOC, the possibility that Nam Tai will be forced to seek further recourse from the
courts in an effort to protect its position and the timing, cost and uncertain success of such
recourse, Nam Tai has determined not to record any value to a potential recovery on its unsecured
claims against Tele-Arts estate in liquidation in its financial statements until the prospects of
recovery, if any, becomes reasonably certain to Nam Tai. Although there can be no assurances, if
future events do occur that make the prospects of Nam Tais recovery of its claims against
Tele-Arts liquidation estate reasonably certain, Nam Tai will record the appropriate amount as
income in its financial statements in accordance with US GAAP.
Losses of $14.5 million arising from Nam Tais reinstatement of the Redeemed Shares were determined
for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2006 after taking into account the market price
of Nam Tai shares on November 20, 2006 (the date of the Privy Council judgment); the estimated
costs and expenses of BOC and former Tele-Arts liquidator that Nam Tai expects will be claimed in
connection with the Privy Council litigation proceedings ; and a reversal of amounts Nam Tai
previously reserved in its financial statements for potential losses to be incurred as result of
the share redemptions. Nam Tai may incur additional losses in the future as a result of its
reinstatement of the Redeemed Shares to the extent that the costs and expenses of BOC and/or former
Tele-Arts liquidator increase beyond the amounts estimated for purposes of determining the $14.5
million loss provision.
5. Developments in Class Action Litigation
As previously announced and reported, Nam Tai and certain of its directors are defendants in two
consolidated class actions wherein the named plaintiffs purport to represent a putative class of
persons who purchased the common stock of Nam Tai from July 29, 2002 through February 18, 2003, and
have made claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and alleged
that misrepresentations and/or omissions were made during the alleged class period concerning the
partial reversal of an inventory provision and a charge to goodwill related to Nam Tais LCD
Products segment. Oral argument on the plaintiffs motion for class certification was held on
February 1, 2007 but the court took the matter under advisement and had not ruled on the motion as
of the close of business on February 9, 2007.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE OUR SHARE PRICE TO DECLINE
Statements concerning the Companys outlook and rate of sales growth for 2007, expected growth in
business volume, the sufficiency of Nam Tais managements optimism regarding Nam Tais long-term
prospects, managements estimates of when its expansion projects to increase capacity will begin
construction or will be available for production among other statements in this press release, are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements may be identified by
the use of words like believes, intends, expects, plans or planned, may, will,
should or anticipates, or the negative equivalents of those words or comparable terminology,
and involve risks and uncertainties. Such statements are based on current expectations and
assumptions and reflect our views with respect to future events and may not actually occur during
the periods indicated or at all and are not a guarantee of our future performance. These
forward-looking statements are, by their nature, subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors
that could cause the actual results to differ materially from future results expressed or implied
by the forward-looking statements in this press release.
Whether the Companys outlook and sales growth rate it expects in 2007 will be met, fall short or
be exceeded, whether managements optimism regarding Nam Tais long-term prospects will realized,
whether the Company can or will be able to meet the stages of its planned expansion by the dates
currently expected, whether expectations of increased sales volumes will be realized or whether
increased orders, if received, can be handled by the planned increases in capacity, whether Nam Tai
capital expenditures to achieve expanded capacity will result in material increases in revenues or
result in increased or any profit, will depend upon future sales orders, Nam Tais ability to
contain manufacturing costs and the actual level of capital expenditures required for each of the
planned expansion projects. Nam Tais growth, operating income, available cash, cash flows and
levels of capital expenditures may be adversely affected by numerous factors including Nam Tais
dependence on a few large customers; intense competition in the electronics industry in which the
Company participates; Nam Tai being subject to continuing pressure on its margins; its operating
results fluctuating and lacking predictability; risks relating to its doing business in the PRC
such as arising from changes in governmental policies, taxation, trade regulation, and currency
exchange rates; the timing and amount of significant orders from customers; delays in product
development and related product release schedules; obsolete inventory or product returns; warranty
and other claims on products; technological shifts; the availability of competitive products of
comparable quality at prices below Nam Tais prices; maturing product life cycles; concessions Nam
Tai may make on product sale terms and conditions; implementation of operating cost structures that
align with revenue growth, if any; the financial condition of Nam Tais customers and vendors and
those companies in which Nam Tai holds marketable securities or other investments; the availability
and increasing costs of materials and other components needed to manufacture its products; adverse
results in litigation, including its on-going securities class action litigation; potential
shortages of materials or skilled labor needed for its planned expansion projects or for its
existing facilities; unforeseen engineering problems, work stoppages, weather interference, flood,
earthquake or other acts of God, delays in obtaining or failure to obtain necessary permits from
regulatory authorities needed to permit expansion or continue existing operations, other unexpected
project delays or unanticipated costs increases; risks of
Page 7 of 15
expanding into new areas of the PRC where Nam Tais has not yet conducted business, diversion of
managements attention to expansion and its management to new locations and to other business
concerns; the impact of legislative actions, higher insurance costs and potential new accounting
pronouncements; a worsening of relations between the PRC and the United States or Taiwan; the
effects of terrorist activity and armed conflict such as disruptions in general economic activity
and changes in Nam Tais operations and security arrangements; the effects of travel restrictions
and quarantines associated with major health problems, such as the Severe Acute Respiratory
Syndrome or Bird Flu, on general economic activity; or other changes in general economic conditions
that affect demand for Nam Tais products. In addition, factors, among others, that could cause the
market price of our shares to decline in the future could include the failure of our growth, if
any, or operating results or those of our competitors or customers to meet the expectations of
public market analysts and investors who follow the electronics manufacturing services, or EMS,
industry, the sale or availability for sale, of the Redeemed Shares by BOC or Tele-Arts liquidator
to satisfy the claims of Tele-Arts creditors or one or more of the factors discussed in Item 3.
Key Information Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31,
2005 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
For further information regarding risks and uncertainties associated with Nam Tais business,

Condition and Risk Factors sections of Nam Tais SEC filings, including, but not limited to, its
annual reports on Form 20-F, copies of which may be obtained by contacting Pan Pacific I. R.

Tais expectations.

NON-GAAP INFORMATION
In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally

performance. Those non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items, such as share-based
compensation expenses, losses arising from the judgment to reinstate the Redeemed Shares,
restructuring costs, realized gain or loss on the disposal of marketable securities, investments or
interests in subsidiaries, impairment loss on marketable securities or goodwill, or other
infrequent or unusual items. By disclosing the non-GAAP information, management intends to provide

necessarily comparable to other companies and should not be used to compare the Companys
performance over different periods. Non-GAAP information should not be viewed as a substitute for,
or superior to, net income or other data prepared in accordance with US GAAP as measures of our
profitability or liquidity. Users of this financial information should consider the types of events
and transactions for which adjustments have been made. See the table in the press release on page
2 for a reconciliation of non-GAAP amounts to amounts reported under US GAAP.
