Business Report

Dear Shareholders

Our gratitude goes to all shareholders, customers and the general public for their longtime support. Thanks to the hard work of everyone at E.SUN, we scored handsomely in 2013 and created another memorable year. Since its inception, E.SUN has committed itself to making the best bank. Confronted with both opportunities and challenges posed to the financial services industry, we are ready to push the bar of excellence even higher as our third decade unfolds. In 2014, we will build on the unity of all subsidiaries that are no different from brothers in a big family as we join our strengths to move up another rung in creating customer value.

In 2013, E.SUN FHC recorded total assets in excess of NT$1.38 trillion, net profit of NT$8.42 billion and EPS of NT$1.53. The year’s ROA and ROE came in at 0.64% and 10.65% respectively. All key gauges conformed to Basel requirements. The net profit numbers of E.SUN FHC subsidiaries are as follows: E.SUN Bank, NT$8.848 billion; E.SUN Securities, NT$124 million; E.SUN Venture Capital, NT$181 million; and E.SUN Insurance Broker, NT$317 million. E.SUN Bank, the Company’s core subsidiary, was able to keep up its premium asset quality; its NPL ratio of 0.20% was supplemented by a 532.81% loan loss coverage ratio and a 1.01% loan loss provisions ratio for Category One loans. Credit rating agencies took due notice of E.SUN’s steady growth against still sound asset quality in 2013. Moody’s Investors Service continued to assign E.SUN FHC its long/short-term foreign-currency deposit ratings of Baa2/P-2. In turn, E.SUN Bank was assigned Baa1/P-2. Both the parent company and banking subsidiary were given a stable outlook. For its part, Fitch Taiwan retained its long/short-term ratings of A+(twn)/F1+(twn) for E.SUN Securities.

By giving priority to service, professionalism and technology, E.SUN has made a difference. Service sets E.SUN apart from peers. Starting with a smile, E.SUN serves customers with warmth and expertise. E.SUN has won many VIP clients by touching their hearts, thus affirming our being recognized as the No. 1 brand name for quality banking. Our professionalism begins with “know your customer” (KYC). We can thus focus on segmented management and consolidate marketing resources. We have won customer trust by making a difference. In today’s knowledge-based economy, the Internet is home to electronic and mobile commerce. We draw on technology as our tool to move across boundaries between the virtual and the real, as well as across lines of industry and national borders. Technological integration gives us infinitely more access points for reaching out to customers.

E.SUN’s blue ocean strategy is to set itself apart from peers by giving priority to service, professionalism and technology. Service runs in the blood of every member of the E.SUN family. A sincere smile is no less than

  • 29 -

a token of E.SUN’s heart-warming service. Professionalism holds the key to winning customer trust. We strive for professionalism on all fronts: growing talent, identifying customer needs, devising solutions, innovating businesses and consolidating market resources. Technology drives business development. The power of technology plays a decisive part in undertaking consolidation across boundaries between industries and nations as well as between real and virtual. We have taken the lead to introduce a number of innovations, including third party payment, Ticket Presale Pro and E.SUN Trade .

A keen believer in the power of retail channels, E.SUN focuses on serving VIP clients and creating value therein. By integrating virtual and real outlets—E.SUN Bank’s branches and electronic banking platform—and having them bolster each other, we provide customers with consumer banking, corporate banking, wealth management, credit card and financial market services. We cement partnerships with VIP clients by helping with their cash flow management and investment and offering consultation. In terms of overseas expansion, we set up a representative office in Myanmar and completed our acquisition of a 70% stake in Cambodia’s Union Commercial Bank last year. Given our greater overseas presence, we are now better-positioned to promote our customer service, risk management and other quality experiences in more parts of Asia. As we grow our business, we place equal emphasis on enforcing internal control and strengthening risk management, thereby bolstering our capacity for attaining sustainable development over the long term.

By engaging in systematic, purposeful and methodic learning, E.SUN is committed to building up its capacity for innovation. Always striving for a better self, E.SUN is keen to draw on creative thinking and collective wisdom as the fruits of innovation is applied to what we do. We believe we can “act different, think different and make a difference.” In 2013, E.SUN invited Harvard Business School Professor Clayton Christensen to give a lecture in Taiwan. He spoke on market-creating innovation, sustaining innovation and efficiency innovation in the hope that innovation would emerge as the driving force for both Taiwan and E.SUN.

Honoring corporate social responsibility is a pledge E.SUN makes to this land. On top of running our business in a responsible manner, E.SUN is committed to playing an exemplary part in economic, social and environmental spheres by repaying the community with love and care. Once again, E.SUN won a good number of honors for its commitment to corporate social responsibility in 2013. It was the local financial services industry’s No. 1 recipient of Commonwealth magazine’s Commonwealth Corporate Citizen Award for the fifth consecutive year; it won certification for ISO 14001, the world's most popular standard for environmental management, that attests to its dedication to environmental protection and energy conservation; and it was rated by the Environmental Protection Administration as an excellent private entity worthy of a National Environmental Education Award. With holders of the Bank’s World MasterCard invited to join the cause, the E.SUN Golden Seed Project has to date helped establish 70 libraries for Taiwan’s elementary school pupils in remote areas. In a similar vein, E.SUN volunteers have solicited

donations from colleagues and launched the “Care for Schoolchildren Project.” Joining forces with school teachers, the project is designed specifically for schoolchildren in need of help. Meanwhile, E.SUN is an avid sponsor of high school baseball, blood drives and the local cultural and creative industry at large. By pooling many a positive force, we are going to make Taiwan a better place for everyone.

Speeding up our progress and charting our future with innovation, we will accommodate and adapt to whatever the future may hold. Through long-term hard work and continuous innovation, we’ve readied ourselves for a journey from good to excellent. We would like to express our appreciation to various quarters in society for their encouragement and to shareholders for their longtime support. Our best wishes go to all of you!

Chairman President
