authority in China on 1 April 2011. The business license required<br />

for commencement of operations was obtained on 8 April 2011.<br />

The extension of the HDI plant in Chongqing will be carried out<br />

gradually, and the respective stage of expansion will be based<br />

Establishment of a business-unit structure<br />

In April 2011 the Management Board, with the approval of the<br />

Supervisory Board, decided to develop the organisational structure<br />

in order to enhance flexibility in the Group and to better<br />

align operating processes with customer needs. For the purpose<br />

of strengthening market orientation, three business units – Mobile<br />

Devices, Industrial & Automotive Solutions and Embedded<br />

Component Packaging – shall be established. The new organisational<br />

structure is designed to allocate as many operating<br />

group functions as possible to the business units in order to<br />

align business processes with the specific needs of the individual<br />

business segments. Furthermore, by doing so, optimisations and<br />

efficiency increases are to be achieved in order to implement an<br />

organisational form in line with the growth strategy of the Group.<br />

From today’s perspective, no restructuring expenses or other<br />

non-recurring expenses are expected to be incurred in connection<br />

with this organisational alignment. In the course of establishing<br />

the business unit structure it is planned, among other things,<br />

to adjust the internal reporting system, which will have a corresponding<br />

impact on external segment reporting.<br />
