1. Overview

 

  A. Industry

 

  (1) Industry characteristics and growth potential

 

  - TFT-LCD technology is one of the most widely used technologies in the manufacture of flat panel displays and the demand for flat panel displays is growing rapidly. The flat panel display industry is characterized by high entry barriers due to rapidly evolving technology, capital-intensive characteristics, and the significant investments required to achieve economies of scale, among other factors. There is strong competition between a limited number of players within the industry and production capacity in the industry, including ours, is being continually increased.

 

  - The demand for LCD panels for Notebook Computers & Monitors has been closely related to the IT industry cycle. The demand for LCD panels for TVs is growing with the start of HDTV broadcasting and as LCD TV is anticipated to play a key role in the digital display area. We expect competition between TFT-LCD and PDP technologies to intensify in the area of large flat TV products. In addition, LCD panel markets for applications, such as mobile phones, PDAs, medical applications and automobile navigation systems, among others, are growing steadily.

 

  - The average selling prices of our display panels have declined in general and are expected to continually decline with time irrespective of industry-wide fluctuations as a result of, among other factors, technology advances and cost reductions.

 

  (2) Cyclicality

 

  - The TFT-LCD business has high cyclicality as well as being a capital intensive business. In spite of the increase in demand for products, this industry has experienced periodic volatility caused by imbalances between demand and supply due to capacity expansion within the industry.

 

  - Intense competition and expectations of demand growth may lead panel manufacturers to invest in manufacturing capacity on similar schedules, resulting in a surge in capacity when production is ramped up at new fabrication facilities.

 

  - During such surges in capacity growth, our customers can exert and have exerted strong downward pricing pressure, resulting in sharp declines in average selling prices and significant fluctuations in our gross margins. Conversely, demand surges and fluctuations in the supply chain can lead to price increases.

 

  (3) Competitiveness

 

  - Our ability to compete successfully depends on factors both within and outside our control, including product pricing, performance and reliability, successful and timely investment and product development, success of our end-brand customers in marketing their brands and products, component and raw material supply costs, foreign exchange rate and general economic and industry conditions.

 

1


Table of Contents
  - Core competitiveness includes technology leadership, capability to design new products and premium products, timely investment in advanced fabs, cost leadership through application of large production lines, innovation of process and productivity, and collaborative customer relationships.

 

  - Most importantly, cost leadership and stable and long-term relationships with customers are critical to secure profit even in a buyer’s market.

 

  - A substantial portion of our sales is attributable to a limited group of end-brand customers and their designated system integrators. The loss of these end-brand customers, as a result of customers entering into strategic supplier arrangements with our competitors or otherwise, would thus result in reduced sales.

 

  - Developing new products and technologies that can be differentiated from those of our competitors is critical to the success of our business. We take active measures to protect our intellectual property internationally by obtaining patents and undertaking monitoring activities in our major markets. It is also necessary to recruit and retain the experienced key staffs and highly skilled line operators.

 

  (4) Sourcing material

 

  - Materials are sourced in-house (color filters) as well as from domestic and overseas vendors. However, recently, the domestic portion is growing due to the active participation of domestic vendors.

 

  - The shortage of raw materials may arise temporarily due to the rapid increase in demand for raw materials resulting from capacity expansion in the TFT-LCD industry.

 

  - We have purchased, and expect to purchase, a substantial portion of our equipment from a limited number of qualified foreign and local suppliers. From time to time, increased demand for new equipment may cause lead times to extend beyond those normally required by the equipment vendors.

 

  (5) Others

 

  - Most TFT-LCD panel makers are located in Asia.

a. Korea: LG.Philips LCD, Samsung Electronics (including Joint Venture between Samsung Electronics and Sony Corporation), BOE-Hydis

b. Taiwan: AU Optronics, Chi Mei Optoelectronics, CPT, QDI, etc.

c. Japan: Sharp, Hitachi, etc.

d. China: SVA-NEC, BOE-OT, etc.

  B. Company

 

  (1) Business overview

 

  - We started the TFT-LCD business in 1998. We currently operate seven fabrication facilities located in Gumi and Paju, Korea and four module facilities located in Gumi & Paju, Korea and Nanjing, China.

 

  - We became the first LCD maker in the world which commenced commercial production at a 4th generation fab (P3) in July 2000 and at a 5th generation fab (P4) in March 2002, and we started mass production at our 6th generation fab (P6) in August 2004, which allows us to produce LCD panels for large TVs and monitors. Following mass production at our 7th generation fab (P7) in January 2006, we became a panel maker who operates both 6th and 7th generation lines, which we believe will strengthen our position as a leader in the LCD TV market.

 

  - Non-consolidated sales revenue in the first quarter of 2006 decreased by 10% to KRW 2,418 billion from KRW 2,675 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005 and increased by 37% compared to KRW 1,770 billion in the first quarter of 2005. The sequential decline in sales in the first quarter of 2006 was mainly the result of strong Korean Won and declines in both demand and average selling price of Notebook Computers and Monitor panel segments.

 

  - Non-consolidated operating profit in the first quarter of 2006 decreased by 90% to KRW 35 billion from KRW 339 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005, and non-consolidated net income in the first quarter of 2006 decreased by 86% to KRW 48 billion from KRW 328 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005.

 

  - Business area of the company for disclosure is limited to LCD business.

  (3) Market characteristics

 

  - Due to the recent high growth in the display appliance market for the flat display format, the scale of the LCD market is growing at a rapid rate, resulting in expansion of the market centered mainly in America, Japan, Europe and China.

 

  (4) New business

 

  - P7, the 7th generation fab, located in our Paju display cluster in Korea, started mass production in January 2006. P7 is scheduled to reach a production capacity of 45,000 input glass sheets per month by the second quarter of 2006 and is expected to reach its initial design capacity of 90,000 input glass sheets per month by the end of 2006.

 

  - We have commenced building construction of P8 at our Paju display cluster in Korea in anticipation of growth of TFT-LCD market.

 

  - In September 2005, we entered into an agreement to build a ‘back-end” module production plant in Wroclaw, Poland, becoming the first global LCD industry player to commence such production in Europe. We plan to break ground on the plant in 2006 and expect to begin production during the first half of 2007. The Polish plant is expected to have an initial capacity of 3 million modules per year. We are going to invest a total of EUR 429 million in the plant by 2011, at which time it is scheduled to reach its design capacity of 11 million units per year.

Report of Independent Accountants

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

LG.Philips LCD Co., Ltd.

We have reviewed the accompanying non-consolidated balance sheet of LG.Philips LCD Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2006 and the related non-consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, expressed in Korean won. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on these interim financial statements based on our reviews.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the quarterly review standards established by the Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. These standards require that we plan and perform our review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Based on our reviews, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the non-consolidated interim financial statements referred to above are not presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of Korea.

We have audited the non-consolidated balance sheet of LG.Philips LCD Co., Ltd. as of December 31, 2005 and the related non-consolidated statements of operations, appropriations of retained earnings and cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of Korea. We expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements in our audit report dated January 20, 2006. These financial statements are not included in this review report. The non-consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2005, presented herein for comparative purposes, is consistent, in all material respects, with the above audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2005.

Table of Contents

Accounting principles and review standards and their application in practice vary among countries. The accompanying financial statements are not intended to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of Korea. In addition, the procedures and practices used in the Republic of Korea to review such financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries. Accordingly, this report and the accompanying financial statements are for use by those who are informed about Korean accounting principles or review standards and their application in practice.

1.     The Company

LG.Philips LCD Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated in 1985 under the Commercial Code of the Republic of Korea and commenced the manufacturing and sale of Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display (“TFT LCD”) from 1999. On July 26, 1999, LG Electronics Inc., Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. (“Philips”) and the Company entered into a joint venture agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company changed its name from LG LCD CO., Ltd. to LG.Philips LCD Co., Ltd. effective August 27, 1999 and on August 31, 1999, the Company issued new shares of common stock to Philips for proceeds of (Won)725,000 million.

In July 2004, pursuant to Securities Registration Statement filed on July 16, 2004, with the Korea Stock Exchange, the Company sold 8,640,000 shares of common stock for proceeds of (Won)298,080 million. Concurrently, pursuant to a Form F-1 registration statement filed on July 15, 2004 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company sold 24,960,000 shares of common stock in the form of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) for proceeds of US$748,800 thousand.

2.     Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of its interim non-consolidated financial statements are same as those followed by the company in its preparation of annual non-consolidated financial statements and are summarized below:

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The Company maintains its accounting records in Korean won and prepares statutory financial statements in the Korean language(Hangul) in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of Korea. Certain accounting principles applied by the Company that conform with financial accounting standards and accounting principles in the Republic of Korea may not conform with generally accepted accounting principles in other countries. Accordingly, these financial statements are intended for use by those who are informed about Korean accounting principles and practices. The accompanying financial statements have been condensed, restructured and translated into English from the Korean language non-consolidated financial statements. Certain information attached to the Korean language financial statements, but not required for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, is not presented in the accompanying non-consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported therein. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from those estimates.

¹On April 19, 2005, the Company issued US dollar-denominated convertible bonds totaling US$475 million, with a zero coupon rate. On or after June 27, 2005 through April 4, 2010, the bonds are convertible into common shares at a conversion price of (Won)58,251 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment based on certain events. The bonds will mature in five years from the issue date and will be repaid at 117.49 % of their principal amount at maturity. The bondholders have a put option to be repaid at 108.39 % of their principal amount on October 19, 2007. As of March 31, 2006, the number of non-converted common shares is 8,276,681.

As of March 31, 2006, foreign currency debentures denominated in U.S. dollars amount to US$ 383 million (December 31, 2005 : US$ 383 million) and foreign currency loans denominated in U.S. dollars amount to US$ 215 million (December 31, 2005 : US$ 215 million).

7.     Stock Appreciation Plan

On April 7, 2005, the Company granted 450,000 shares of stock appreciations rights (“SARs”) for certain executives. Under the terms of this plan, executives, upon exercising their SARs, are entitled to receive cash equal to the excess of the market price of the Company’s common stock over the exercise price of (Won) 44,050 per share. The exercise price decreased from (Won) 44,260 to (Won) 44,050 due to the additional issuance of common stock in 2005. These SARs are exercisable on or after April 8, 2008, through April 7, 2012. Additionally, when the increase rate of the Company’s share price is the same or less than the increase rate of the Korea Composite Stock Price Index (“KOSPI”) over the three-year period following the grant date, only 50% of the initially granted shares can be exercised.

The options activity under the SARs since April 7, 2005 is as follows:

The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to manage the exposure to changes in currency exchange rates in accordance with its foreign currency risk management policy. The use of foreign currency forward contracts allows the Company to reduce its exposure to the risk that the eventual Korean won cash outflows resulting from operating expenses, capital expenditures, purchasing of materials and debt service will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates.

As of March 31, 2006, the Company recorded unrealized gains and losses on outstanding foreign currency forward contracts of (Won)100,323 million and (Won)28,907 million, respectively. Total unrealized gains and losses of (Won)9,207 million and (Won)5,688 million, respectively, were charged to operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006, as these contracts did not meet the requirements for a cash flow hedge. Net unrealized gains and losses, net of related taxes, incurred relating to cash flow hedges from forecasted exports, were recorded as capital adjustments.

The forecasted hedged transactions are expected to occur on March 28, 2007. The aggregate amount of all deferred gains and losses of (Won)91,116 million and (Won)23,219 million, respectively, recorded net of tax under capital adjustments, are expected to be included in the determination of gain and loss within a year from March 31, 2006.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2006, the Company recorded realized gains of (Won)64,842 million (2005: (Won)27,311 million) on foreign currency forward contracts upon settlement, and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006, realized losses amounted to (Won)15,872 million (2005: (Won)2,563 million).

The Company entered into cross-currency swap contracts to manage the exposure to changes in currency exchange rates in accordance with its foreign currency risk management policy and to manage the exposure to changes in interest rates related to floating rate notes. These transactions do not meet the requirements for hedge accounting for financial statement purposes. Therefore, the resulting realized and unrealized gains or losses, measured by quoted market prices, are recognized in current operations as gains or losses as the exchange rates change.

In August 2002, the Company filed a complaint against Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Tatung Company and Tatung Co. of America, alleging patent infringement relating to liquid crystal displays and the manufacturing process for TFT-LCDs. Subsequently the Company filed a complaint against customers of Chunghwa Picture Tubes, including ViewSonic Corp., Jeans Co, Lite-On Technology Corp., Lite-On Technology International, Inc., TpV Technology and Invision Peripheral Inc. In June 2004, Chunghwa Picture Tubes filed a counter-claim against the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California for alleged infringement of certain patents and violation of U.S. antitrust laws. The Company also filed a complaint against Chunghwa Picture Tubes with the American Arbitration Association in connection with the ownership of certain patents. In May 2004, the Company filed a complaint against Tatung Co., the parent company of Chunghwa Picture Tubes and ViewSonic Corp. and others, claiming patent infringement of rear mountable liquid crystal display devices in the United States District of Delaware and the Patent Country Court in the United Kingdom. On November 28, 2005, the Company lost its patent infringement case against Tatung Company and ViewSonic Corp. at first instance in Patent Country Court in United Kingdom.

Viewsonic Corporation, alleging patent infringement related to liquid crystal display and the manufacturing process for TFT-LCDs in the United States District of Delaware. On September 20, 2005, the United States District Court for the Central District of California dismissed the patent case against Tatung Company and other defendants regarding the patent infringement by Chunghwa Picture Tubes relating to side mounting patent. Thereafter, the Company has revised its claim and has refiled the above complaint including the side mounting patent. The Company’s management does not expect that the outcome in any of these legal proceedings, individually or collectively, will have any material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

9. Earnings Per Share

Earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Ordinary income (loss) per share is computed by dividing ordinary income (loss) allocated to common stock, which is net income (loss) allocated to common stock as adjusted by extraordinary gains or losses, net of related income taxes, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Earnings (loss) per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, is calculated as follows:

(in millions, except per share amounts)

      2006    2005  

Net income (loss) as reported on the statements of operations

   (Won) 47,518    (Won) (78,830 )

Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding

     357,815,700      325,315,700  
               

Earnings (loss) per share

   (Won) 133    (Won) (242 )
               

The Company has issued no diluted securities until the Company issued convertible bonds on April 19, 2005. Diluted earnings per share is identical to basic earnings per share and diluted ordinary income per share to basic ordinary income per share as convertibles bonds have no dilutive effect for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

March 31, 2005 and 2006

Employees purchased the shares through the ESOA with loans provided by the Company at the initial public offering price ((Won)34,500) and put under each individual employee’s account. 20% of the 20% of shares (345,600 shares) purchased by employees with loans from the Company is accounted for as a restricted stock award which vests over four years. Unearned compensation, shown as a deduction of Capital Surplus, will be amortized over the 4 year vesting period. During the three month period ended March 31, 2006, the Company recorded compensation expense of (Won)1,049 million.

 

6. Stock Appreciation Plan

Effective January 1, 2005, the company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. SFAS No. 123(R) requires that an award that is classified as a liability to be initially measured at its grant date fair value and remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period until the award is settled or expires. The measurement is based on the current stock price and other relevant factors. The difference between the fair value amounts is recognized as compensation expense during the requisite service period, based on the percentage of the requisite service that the employee has rendered as of that date. In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), compensation expense is remeasured at each reporting date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee requisite service period.

On April 7, 2005, the Company granted 450,000 shares of stock appreciations rights (“SARs”) for selected management employees. Under the terms of this plan, management, on exercise, receive cash equal to the amount that the market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the strike price ((Won)44,050) of the SARs. The vesting period is two years starting from the grant date, and exercisable period is April 08, 2008 through April 07, 2012.

The following table shows total stock-based compensation expense included in the consolidated statement of operations:

(in millions of Korean won)

In connection with the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the company assessed its valuation technique and related assumptions. The company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes valuation model, consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123(R) and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. Key input assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options include the grant price of the award, the expected option term, volatility of the company’s stock, the risk-free rate and the company’s dividend yield. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by selected managements who receive SARs, and subsequent events are not indicative of the reasonableness of the original estimates of fair value made by the company under SFAS 123(R).

The fair value of SARs was estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:

 

     March 31, 2006

Option term (years) 1

   5

Volatility 2

   39.92%

Risk-free interest rate (Korean government bond)

   5.13%

Dividend yield

   0%

Weighted average fair value per option granted

   (Won)18,779

1 The option term is the number of years that the company estimates that options will be outstanding prior to settlement.
2 Measured using historical weekly price changes of the Company’s stock over the respective term of the option.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to several legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In August 2002, the Company filed a complaint against Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Tatung Company and Tatung Co. of America, alleging patent infringement relating to liquid crystal displays and the manufacturing process for TFT-LCDs. Subsequently the Company filed a complaint against customers of Chunghwa Picture Tubes, including ViewSonic Corp., Jeans Co, Lite-On Technology Corp., Lite-On Technology International, Inc., TpV Technology and Invision Peripheral Inc. In June 2004, Chunghwa Picture Tubes filed a counter-claim against the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California for alleged infringement of certain patents and violation of U.S. antitrust laws. In May 2004, the Company filed a complaint against Tatung Co., the parent company of Chunghwa Picture Tubes and ViewSonic Corp. and others, claiming patent infringement of rear mountable liquid crystal display devices in the United States District of Delaware and the Patent Country Court in the United Kingdom. The Company also filed a complaint against Chunghwa Picture Tubes with the American Arbitration Association in connection with the ownership of certain patents. On November 28, 2005, the Company lost its patent infringement case against Tatung Company and ViewSonic Corp. at first instance in Patent Country Court in United Kingdom, and the Company is preparing the appeal against the decision of U.K. Court. In January 2005, Chunghwa Picture Tubes filed a complaint for patent infringement against the Company.

On May 13, 2005, the Company also filed a complaint against Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Tatung Company and Viewsonic Corporation, alleging patent infringement related to liquid crystal display and the manufacturing process for TFT-LCDs in the United States District of Delaware. On September 20, 2005 the United States District Court for the Central District of California dismissed the patent case against Tatung Company and other defendants regarding the patent infringement by Chunghwa Picture Tubes relating to side mounting patent. Thereafter, the Company has revised its claim and has refiled the above complaint including the side mounting patent. The Company’s management does not expect that the outcome in any of these legal proceedings, individually or collectively, will have any material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company sells a significant portion of products based on non-binding long-term supply agreements to LGE and Philips, who are currently the largest shareholders of the Company. These agreements are for three-year terms, with automatic renewals. These agreements expired in 2004. The Company has reentered into a formal master agreement with Philips.

As of December 31, 2004, the Company has a trademark license agreement with LG Corporation and Philips Electronics. Under this agreement, the Company has to pay some portion of revenue as a license fee. This agreement is for three-year terms and shall expire at the end of year 2007.
