  a. Operating segments

The Company’s only reportable segment is the foundry segment. The foundry segment engages mainly in the manufacturing, selling, packaging, testing and computer-aided design of integrated circuits and other semiconductor devices and the manufacturing of masks. The Company also had other operating segment that did not exceed the quantitative threshold for separate reporting. The segment mainly engaged in the researching, developing, designing, manufacturing and selling of renewable energy and efficiency related technologies and products.

From 2016, the Company has only one single operating segment, the segment revenue and operating results were the same as those stated in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for both years ended December 31, 2016, and 2017, respectively.

The Company uses the income from operations as the measurement for the basis of performance assessment. The basis for such measurement is the same as that for the preparation of financial statements.
