Subject (translated): 'Announcement of Information Related to the Company's Acquisition of Intangible Assets.' UMC (聯華電子, 2303) has disclosed that it has obtained intangible assets, triggering a mandatory material-information filing under the Taiwan Stock Exchange / MOPS disclosure framework (pursuant to the Regulations Governing the Acquisition and Disposal of Assets by Public Companies). Intangible assets in this context typically refer to patents, intellectual property rights, technology licenses, or software licenses. The filing obligation arises when the acquisition amount meets or exceeds regulatory thresholds relative to the company's net worth. Investors should review the full MOPS filing for the nature of the assets acquired, consideration paid, counterparty, and strategic rationale. [Body not available — subject line only.
