Full Translation
Acting on behalf of subsidiary Siliconware Precision Industries Co., Ltd. (矽品精密工業), announcement of the acquisition of operating machinery and equipment reaching NT$1 billion. — Under Taiwan securities rules, any single acquisition of productive assets at or above NT$1 billion by a listed company or its subsidiaries requires an immediate material-information disclosure. The filing indicates SPIL has committed at least NT$1 billion to equipment purchases, most likely tooling for advanced IC packaging or back-end testing processes, consistent with the capital-intensive nature of OSAT (outsourced semiconductor assembly and test) operations. The parent entity, ASE Technology Holding (3711), files this notice on SPIL's behalf as the directly listed consolidating entity. [Body not available — subject line only.
