Full Translation
Announcement regarding the Company's acquisition of plant facility equipment (related information disclosed). Under Taiwan Stock Exchange material information rules, listed companies must disclose acquisitions or disposals of fixed assets — such as fab equipment — when the transaction value crosses prescribed thresholds. For a pure-play foundry like UMC, fab equipment purchases are part of ongoing capacity maintenance and technology node investment, though materiality depends on the disclosed transaction amount and whether it relates to a specific capacity expansion or upgrade program.
