Risk Factors

We may from time to time make written or oral forward-looking statements. Written forward-looking statements may appear in this document and other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, in press releases, in reports to shareholders, on our website, and other documents. The Private Securities Reform Act of 1995 contains a safe harbor for forward-looking statements on which we rely in making such disclosures. In
connection with this safe harbor, we are hereby identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. Any such statement is
qualified by reference to the following cautionary statements:

Historically we have been dependent on a few major customers that accounted
for a substantial percentage of our sales. The significant decrease in orders from major customers materially and adversely affected our results of operations in our year ended March 31, 2011. Our sales will continue to decline and our
financial results will suffer further if our major customer during fiscal 2011 ceases, or substantially reduces, its orders unless we can increase sales to new or existing customers.

Historically, and particularly before fiscal 2011, a substantial percentage of our sales were to a small number of major customers that
each accounted for more than 10% of our net sales. During the years ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, our major customers together accounted for 41.3% and 42.0% of our total net sales, respectively. In the year ended March 31, 2011, however,
our sales to 10% or greater customers were limited to VTech Telecommunications Limited, which accounted for 14.6% of net sales.

Our sales are based on purchase orders and we have no long-term contracts with any of our customers and the percentage of sales to any of
our customers has fluctuated in the past and may fluctuate in future. Substantial decreases in sales to, or the loss of major customers, have adversely impacted our sales and financial performance. For example, N&J Company Ltd., our largest
customer in both fiscal 2009 and 2010, accounting for 19.2% and 28.6% of our total sales during the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, reduced the volume of its orders during the year ended March 31, 2011 to less than 10%
of our total sales. Similarly, Digidesign, Inc., our largest customer in fiscal 2008, and one of our major customers in both fiscal 2009 and 2010, accounting for 12.0% and 12.7% of our total sales during the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively, reduced the volume of its orders during the year ended March 31, 2011 to less than 10% of our total sales. These reductions in sales to our major customers were a principal contributing factor to the decreases in our total sales
over the last three fiscal years and our operating and net losses during the year ended March 31, 2011  the only year we have suffered such losses since becoming a public company in 1995.

We cannot assure you that present or future customers will not cease using us as the source of the injection-molded plastic parts and
components we manufacture, for electronic manufacturing services of electrical products and subassemblies or for metallic molds and accessories or significantly change, reduce or delay the amount of products and services ordered from us. Our sales
will continue to decline and our financial results will suffer further if VTech ceases, or substantially reduces, its orders unless we can increase sales to new or existing customers.

Because of the impact on our injection molded plastics business of the world-wide economic slowdown, we recorded non-cash impairment charges to property, plant and equipment used in that segment of
$4.5 million during the year ended March 31, 2011, more than doubling the total operating loss we would have otherwise reported for the year. Unless our operating results improve substantially in future periods, we may be required to write down
our long-lived assets further and thereby incur significant additional impairment charges.

At March 31, 2011, we had
approximately $51.0 million of long-lived assets on our balance sheet after recording a provision for impairment of $4.5 million to property, plant and equipment we use in our injection molded plastics business. The valuation of our long-lived
assets requires us to make assumptions about future sales prices and sales volumes for our products. Our assumptions are used to forecast future undiscounted cash flows. Given the effect economic climate we faced during fiscal 2011 and the
uncertainties regarding the duration and severity of these conditions, forecasting future business is difficult and subject to modification. If actual market conditions differ or our forecasts change, we may be required to reassess long-lived assets
and could record additional impairment charges. Any impairment charge relating to long-lived assets would have the effect of decreasing our earnings or, as was the case in fiscal 2011, increasing our losses. If we are required to take substantial
additional impairment charges, our operating results would be materially adversely affected in the periods and year in which the charge is incurred.

Continuing unstable worldwide economic conditions may adversely affect our earnings, liquidity and
financial position.

Global financial and credit markets have been, and continue to be, extremely unstable and
unpredictable. Even though there are signs of an overall global economic recovery, there are still concerns over price instability, geopolitical issues, availability and cost of credit, stability of financial markets and sovereign nations. A return
of the conditions that rendered financial markets unstable or adversely affected worldwide economic conditions could again negatively impact one or more of the following:



| |  |  | the demand for our customers products,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



| |  |  | the amount, timing and stability of their orders to us,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the financial strength of our customers and suppliers,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our customers and suppliers ability or willingness to do business with us,

| |  |  | the ability of our customers, our suppliers or us to obtain credit, secure funds or raise capital, or
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the prices at which we can sell our products and services,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------

which, in turn, could adversely affect



| |  |  | our ability to manage inventory levels effectively or collect receivables,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increase our need for cash,
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | decrease our net sales and profitability; or

Our gross margins fluctuate from year to year and may be adversely affected by a number of factors.

The following chart shows, for the years indicated, our gross margins from our two principal operating segments and for our company as a
whole:

Gross Margins Percentage

We expect gross margins generally and for specific products to continue to fluctuate from year to
year. Fluctuations in our margins have been affected, often adversely, and may continue to be affected, by numerous factors, including:



| |  |  | increasing competition in our market segments, which has forced us to maintain or reduce unit prices or attempt to pass on our costs of materials and
components on to customers;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

directed at labor practices and policies;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in the prices or the availability of components needed to manufacture our electronic products;

In the years prior to our year ended March 31, 2010, the appreciation of the exchange rate of the RMB,
in which we pay our labor and manufacturing costs, against the U.S. dollar, in which we present our financial statements was a factor that contributed to decreases in our gross margins. In fiscal 2010, however, the RMB to US dollar exchange rate was
relatively stable. Because of that stability, together with our implementation of vigorous cost controls, we were able to maintain our aggregate gross margins at the same level as in fiscal 2009 despite continuing adverse global economic conditions
that caused our fiscal 2010 sales to decrease substantially from sales during fiscal 2009. However, the decline in our gross margins resumed in our year ended March 31, 2011 as a result of increases in our operating expenses, which occurred
from rising labor costs and the resumption during fiscal 2011 of the appreciation of the exchange rate of the RMB. The risks to, and effects on, our business from increasing labor costs and the appreciation in the exchange rate of RMB to the US
dollar are discussed in the two risk factors which immediately follow.

If we cannot stem the decline in our gross margins,
our operating results would suffer, dividend payments to shareholders may be decreased or eliminated, our financial position may be harmed and our stock price may fall.

If the United States Internal Revenue Service does not agree with our determination regarding our PFIC status under US income tax laws and seeks to treat us as a PFIC, US holders of our shares could be
subject to potentially adverse tax consequences.

We believe that it unlikely that we were a passive foreign
investment company, or PFIC No assurance can be given, however, that the IRS may not disagree with us and seek to treat us as a PFIC. If we were or are a PFIC U.S. holders of our shares would be subject to potentially adverse tax consequences,
as described under United States Federal Income Tax  Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) in ITEM 10 Additional Information beginning on page 53 of this Report.

The economy of China has been experiencing significant growth, leading to inflation and increased labor costs. Increases in labor costs of workers in the PRC generally, and in the Province where our
manufacturing facilities are located particularly, have had and can be expected to continue to have a material and adverse effect on our operating results.

We generate all revenues from sales of products that we manufacture at our facilities located in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, in the PRC. The economy in China has grown significantly over the past 20
years, which has resulted in an increased inflation and the average cost of labor.

The consumer price index (CPI), a major
gauge of Chinas inflation, rose 4.9 % in January 2011 from a year earlier as food prices increased 10.3% due to rising demand and a drought in key grain-growing regions. The central government of China has been encouraging wage hikes in
the hope of boosting consumer spending and reducing the economys reliance on exports.

There is no fixed minimum wage
which is applicable to all of China; local governments in China adopt different amounts based on the situation in their area. Effective May 1, 2010, Chinas Guangdong Province, where our manufacturing facilities are located, raised minimum
wages by approximately 20% and effective March 1, 2011 again increased the minimum wage by another approximately 20%. The 2010 increase in minimum wages directly affected our cost of labor, increasing our overall operating expenses and
adversely affecting our financial results for our year ended March 31, 2011. The 2011 minimum wage increase can be expected to increase our operating

expenses during our year ending March 31, 2012 from the amount reported for fiscal 2011 and similarly adversely impact our operating results during the coming year.

Continuing material increases in our cost of labor will continue to increase our operating costs and will adversely affect our financial
results unless we pass on such increases to our customers by increasing the prices of our products and services. The effect of increases in the prices of our products and services would make our products more expensive in global markets, such as the
United States and the European Union. This could result in the loss of customers, who may seek, and be able to obtain, products and services comparable to those we offer in lower-cost regions of the world. If we do not increase our prices to pass on
the effect of increases in our labor costs, our margins and profitability would suffer.

Because most of our labor costs are
incurred in China and therefore paid in RMB, the adverse effect on our business and financial results from increasing labor costs is exacerbated by the appreciation in the exchange rate to the US dollar, as is discussed in the next risk factor.

Changes in currency exchange rates have and could continue to influence our financial results significantly.

Our sales are mainly in United States dollars and Hong Kong dollars and our expenses are mainly in United States dollars, Hong Kong
dollars and Chinese RMB.

The Hong Kong dollar has been pegged to the U.S. dollar at approximately 7.80 and relatively stable.
The exchange rates between the Hong Kong dollars and the U.S. dollar were approximately 7.750, 7.764 and 7.789 at March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. The Hong Kong government may not continue to maintain the present currency exchange
mechanism, which fixes the Hong Kong dollar at approximately 7.80 to each United States dollar and has not in the past presented a material currency exchange risk. Although announcements by Hong Kongs central bank indicate its intention to
maintain the currency peg between the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar, if Hong Kong does change and follows China to a floating currency system or otherwise changes the exchange rate system of Hong Kong dollars to the U.S. dollars, our margins
and financial results could be adversely affected.

Between 1994 and July 2005, the market and official RMB rates were unified
and the value of the RMB was essentially pegged to the U.S. dollar and was relatively stable. On July 21, 2005, the Peoples Bank of China adjusted the exchange rate of RMB to the U.S. dollar by linking the RMB to a basket of currencies
and simultaneously setting the exchange rate of RMB to U.S. dollars, from 1:8.27, to a narrow band of around 1:8.11. The chart on the next page illustrates the fluctuations since the July 31, 2005 adjustment of the RMB to the US dollar by
showing the exchange ratio at the end of each Deswells fiscal years from March 31, 2006 to March 31, 2011.

The appreciation and depreciation in the exchange ratio of the RMB to the US dollar increases and decreases, respectively, our costs and
expenses to the extent paid in RMB. Approximately 35.1%, 51.0% and 47.0% of our total costs and expenses were in RMB during the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively

In mid-2008, the Chinese government halted allowing the RMB to appreciate against the dollar as it did during earlier periods since July 25, 2005 because of concerns that the stronger RMB was hurting
Chinese exports at a time of global recession. Accordingly, as shown in the above table, there was virtually no change in the exchange ratio of the RMB to the US dollar during our year ended March 31, 2010. However, on June 19, 2010
Chinas central bank announced that it planned to introduce more flexibility in the management of its currency and since then the RMB has again begun to appreciate against the US dollar, increasing 3.9% at March 31, 2011 from the midpoint
level at March 31, 2010, and increasing to 1:6.4358 , or 1.9%, at July 29, 2011, from the midpoint level at March 31, 2011, as reported by Historical Exchange Rates at http://www.oanda.com/currency/historical-rates/.

There remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt an even more flexible currency policy, which,
if adopted, could result in appreciation of the exchange rate of the RMB to the U.S. dollar beyond the appreciation experienced under Chinas current system.

If the RMB continues its appreciation to the U.S. dollar under Chinas currency exchange system, our operating costs will continue to increase, and if China adopts a different system of currency
exchange resulting in greater appreciation of the RMB to the US dollar, our operating costs could increase even more. In either event, such appreciation would adversely affect our financial results in a manner similar to the effects we have
suffered, and may in the future suffer, as consequence of our increasing labor costs.

For a discussion of the risks to our
business from increases in our costs of labor, please see the risk factor immediately above entitled The economy of China has been experiencing significant growth, leading to inflation and increased labor costs. Increases in labor costs of
workers in the PRC generally, and in the Province where our manufacturing facilities are located particularly, have had and can be expected to continue to have a material and adverse effect on our operating results.

If OEMs stop or reduce their manufacturing outsourcing, our business could suffer.

Our revenues depend on outsourcing by OEMs to us and to other contract manufactures for which we manufacture end-products or parts and
components. Current and prospective customers continuously evaluate our capabilities against other providers as well as against the merits of manufacturing products themselves. Our business would be adversely affected if OEMs decide to perform these
functions internally. Similarly, we depend on new outsourcing opportunities to militate against lost revenues arising from the decline in demand for our customers products as a consequence of the current global economic slowdown, and our
business would be adversely affected if we are not successful in gaining additional business from these opportunities or if OEMs do not outsource additional manufacturing business.

We could experience credit problems with our customers or suffer the effects of financial difficulties
with our suppliers, which would reduce our future revenues and net income.

We manufacture and sell injection-molded
plastic parts and components and provide manufacturing services for electrical products and subassemblies to companies and industries that have in the past, and may in the future, experience financial difficulty, particularly in light of recent
conditions in the credit markets and the overall worldwide economy. Our suppliers may also experience financial difficulty in this environment. If our customers experience financial difficulty, we could have difficulty recovering amounts owed to us
from these customers, or demand for our products and services from these customers could decline. Additionally, if our suppliers experience financial difficulty we could have difficulty sourcing supply necessary to fulfill production requirements
and meet scheduled shipments. The recent global financial crisis adversely affected our customers and suppliers access to capital and liquidity and prevailing uncertainties in world markets may continue to limit such access. If one or
more of our customers were to become insolvent or otherwise were unable to pay for the products or services provided by us on a timely basis, or at all, our operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. Such adverse effects
could include one or more of the following: a provision or increased provision for doubtful accounts, a charge for inventory write-offs, a reduction in revenue, and increases in working capital requirements because of increases in days in inventory
and increases in days in accounts receivable. Financial difficulties affecting our suppliers, which result in an interruption in the supply a materials and components we use to manufacture our products and perform our services could have a
significant impact on our operations and on our customers if we are unable to deliver finished products timely.

Because material amounts
of our funds are held in banks where only limited protection on deposit accounts is required, the failure of any bank in which we deposit our funds could result in a loss of those funds to the extent exceeding the amounts protected and could,
depending on the amount involved, affect our ability to continue in business.

At March 31, 2011,
we had cash on hand of $35.6 million, which was invested in short-term interest bearing investments at banks or other financial institutions. Of that cash, approximately $7.36 million were held in banks and other financial institutions in Hong Kong,
$15.45 million in Macao and $12.83 million in the PRC. The Hong Kong government provides deposit protection up to a maximum amount of HK$500,000 (approximately US$64,200 based on the midpoint exchange rate for March 31, 2011 reported by
Historical Exchange Rates at http:// www.oanda.com/currency/ historical-rates/) for each depositor in any individual bank in Hong Kong, and the Macao government provides deposit protection up to a maximum amount of MOP$500,000
(approximately US$63,200 based on the midpoint exchange rate for March 31, 2011 reported by Historical Exchange Rates at http:// www.oanda.com/currency/ historical-rates/) for each depositor with any individual bank in Macao. We
understand that in the event of a bank failure of a bank in the PRC, a PRC-government agency is to provide some, unspecified, protections of deposit accounts to individual depositors. However, we are not aware of the amount or limit of deposit
protection that may be provided by the PRC government. Depending upon the amounts of funds we have on deposit in a Hong Kong, Macao or PRC financial institution that fails, our inability to have immediate access to our cash, and the lack of deposit
protection in excess of applicable protection limits, could impair our operations, and, if we are not able to access needed funds to pay our suppliers, employees and other creditors, we may be unable to continue in business.

Our industry is extremely competitive, with aggressive pricing dynamics, and; if we are not able to continue to provide competitive products and
services, we may lose business.

We compete with a number of different companies in producing of injection-molded plastic
parts and components, electrical products and subassemblies and metallic molds and accessories. For example, we compete with Asian-based suppliers of injection-molded plastic parts and components, major global electronic manufacturing services, or
EMS, providers, other smaller EMS companies that have a regional or product-specific focus, and original design manufacturers with respect to some of the services that we provide. We also compete with our current and prospective customers, who
evaluate our capabilities in light of their own capabilities and cost structures. Our market segments are extremely competitive, many of our competitors have achieved substantial market share and many have lower cost structures and greater
manufacturing, financial or other resources than we do. We face particular competition from Asian-based competitors, including Taiwanese EMS providers which compete in our end markets. If we are unable to provide comparable manufacturing services
and improved products at lower cost than the other companies in our market, our net sales could decline.

##### Table of Contents

The current global economic crisis may also increase the competitive environment in our
market segments which could also impact our operating results. In addition, the EMS industry is currently experiencing excess manufacturing capacity and has seen increased competition. These factors have exerted and will continue to exert additional
pressures on pricing for injection-molded plastic parts and components and for our electronic manufacturing services, thereby increasing the competitive pressures in our market segments generally. We may not be able to compete successfully against
our current and future competitors, and the competitive pressures we face may have a material adverse effect on us.

We have no long-term
contracts to obtain plastic resins and our profit margins and net income could suffer from an increase in resin prices.

The primary materials used by us in the manufacture of our plastic injection molded products are various plastic resins. The following
table shows our cost of plastic resins as a percentage of our cost of plastic products sold and as a percentage of our total costs of goods sold for the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011:

LOGO

We have no long-term contracts with our resin suppliers. Accordingly, our financial performance is
dependent to a significant extent on resin markets and the ability to pass through price increases to our customers. The capacity, supply and demand for plastic resins and the petrochemical intermediates from which they are produced are subject to
cyclical price fluctuations, including those arising from supply shortages. Consequently, resin prices may fluctuate as a result of changes in natural gas and crude oil prices and the capacity, supply and demand for resin and petrochemical
intermediates from which they are produced. Over the past several years, oil prices have experienced significant volatility, remain extremely uncertain and have been increasing in recent months. Sustained increases in oil prices could result in
higher costs for plastic resins. We have found that increases in resin prices are difficult to pass on to our customers. In the past, increases in resin prices have increased our costs of goods sold and adversely affected our operating margins. A
significant increase in resin prices in the future could likewise adversely affect our operating margins and results of operations.

Shortages of components and materials used in our production of electronics products may delay or reduce our sales and increase our costs.

From time to time, we have experienced shortages of some of the electronic components that we need and use in our
electronics manufacturing market segment. These shortages can result from strong demand for those components or from problems experienced by suppliers. These unanticipated component shortages could result in curtailed production or delays in
production, which may prevent us from making scheduled shipments to customers. Our inability to make scheduled shipments could cause us to experience a reduction in sales, increase in inventory levels and costs, and could adversely affect
relationships with existing and prospective customers. Component shortages may also increase our cost of goods sold because we may be required to pay higher prices for components

in short supply and redesign or reconfigure products to accommodate substitute components. As a result, component shortages could adversely affect our operating results. Our performance depends,
in part, on our ability to incorporate changes in component costs into the selling prices for our products.

Certain of the
electronic products we manufacture, particularly those for customers whose orders are widely spaced at irregular intervals for small lots of customized products, require components from single-source or customer-designated suppliers. Shortages of
specific components often result in the suppliers allocating available quantities among their customers based on volume and purchasing history. Generally, we lack sufficient bargaining power with these suppliers to assure a stable supply of needed
components. Delays in our obtaining, or our inability to obtain, these materials could slow production, delay shipments to our customers, increase our costs and reduce operating income.

We face inventory risks from by providing turnkey manufacturing of electronic products.

We conduct most of the manufacturing of electronic products for our customers on a turnkey basis, where we purchase some or all of the components and other materials required for production.
Turnkey manufacturing involves greater resource investment and inventory risk management than consignment manufacturing, where the customer provides the components and materials needed to manufacture the products it orders. If we fail to manage our
inventory effectively, we may bear the risk of fluctuations in materials costs, scrap and excess inventory, all of which can have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, delays, cancellations or
reductions of orders by our customers could result in an excess of materials. An excess of components and materials would increase our costs of maintaining inventory and may increase the risk of inventory obsolescence and impairment charges, which
may increase expenses and decrease operating margins and income.

Periods in which we receive rapid increases in orders with
the lengthening of lead times by suppliers could cause a shortage of materials needed for us to fulfill orders received from customers expecting normal or accelerated delivery. A shortage of materials could lengthen production schedules and costs
substantially, particularly for orders from our customers placed for short-term or rapid delivery and could force us to seek and purchase needed components at premium prices, which would increase our costs of goods sold and reduce our operating
margins.

The Chinese government could change its policies toward or even nationalize private enterprise, which could result in the total
loss of our investment in that country.

Our manufacturing facilities are located in China. As a result, our operations
and assets are subject to significant political, economic, legal and other uncertainties associated with doing business in China. Over the past several years, the Chinese government has pursued economic reform policies including the encouragement of
private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. The Chinese government may not continue to pursue these policies or may significantly alter them to our detriment from time to time without notice. Changes in policies by the Chinese
government resulting in changes in laws, regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion or imports and sources of supply could materially and adversely affect us. The
nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises by the Chinese government could result in the total loss of our investment in that country.

There may be a lack of remedies and impartiality under the Chinese legal system that prevents us from enforcing the agreements under which we operate our factories.

We do not own the land on which our factories in China are located. We occupy our manufacturing facilities under land use agreements or
under tenancy agreements with the local Chinese government. These agreements may be difficult to enforce in China, which could force us to accept terms that may not be as favorable as those provided in our agreements. Unlike the U.S., China has a
civil law system based on written statutes in which judicial decisions have little precedential value. The Chinese government has enacted some laws and regulations dealing with matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign
investment, commerce, taxation and trade. However, their experience in implementing, interpreting and enforcing these laws and regulations is limited, and our ability to enforce commercial claims or to resolve commercial disputes is unpredictable.
These matters may be subject to the exercise of considerable discretion by agencies of the Chinese government, and forces unrelated to the legal merits of a particular matter or dispute may influence their determination.

If our business licenses in China were not renewed, we would be required to move our operations out of
China, which would impair our profitability, competitiveness and market position and jeopardize our ability to continue operations.

Our activities in China require business licenses, the scope of which is limited to our present activities, and require review and approval of our activities by various national and local agencies of
Chinese government. The Chinese government may not continue to approve our activities, grant or renew our licenses or grant or renew licenses to expand our existing activities. Our inability to obtain needed approvals or licenses could prevent us
from continuing to conduct operations in China. If for any reason we were required to move our manufacturing operations outside of China, our profitability would be substantially impaired, our competitiveness and market position would be materially
jeopardized and we may not be able to continue operations.

Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover losses related to major
accidents, forces of nature or product liability risks.

Firefighting and disaster relief or assistance in China are
primitive by Western standards. At March 31, 2011, we maintained fire, casualty and theft insurance aggregating approximately $100.4 million covering certain of our stock in trade, goods and merchandise, furniture and equipment and factory
buildings in China. The proceeds of this insurance may not be sufficient to cover material damage to, or the loss of, any of our factories due to fire, severe weather, flood, forces of nature or other causes, such as the 2010 earthquake that killed
and injured over 14,000 people and damaged many buildings in Yushu County in Chinas Southern Qinghai province. The epicenter of that earthquake was about 1,450 miles from our factories in Dongguan, China. We do not maintain any business
interruption insurance or earthquake insurance.

Despite quality assurance measures, there remains a risk that defects may
occur in our products. The occurrence of any defects in our products could give rise to liability for damages caused by such defects. They could, moreover, impair the markets acceptance of our products. At March 31, 2011, we had only
limited product liability insurance. Although we have not experienced any product quality claims from our major customers, if future claims do arise, costs to defend, adverse judgments or amounts we may be forced to pay in settlement would increase
our expenses. Damages to our reputation resulting from such claim(s) could cause our customers to use other vendors which would hurt our revenues.

Payment of dividends by our subsidiaries in the PRC to us is subject to restrictions under PRC law. The new PRC tax law could force us to reduce the amount of dividends we have historically paid to our
shareholders or possibly eliminate them or we may decide not pay dividends in the future.

Under PRC law, dividends may be
paid only out of distributable profits. Distributable profits with respect to our subsidiaries in the PRC refers to after-tax profits as determined in accordance with accounting principles and financial regulations applicable to PRC enterprises
(China GAAP) less any recovery of accumulated losses and allocations to statutory funds that it is required to make. Any distributable profits that are not distributed in a given year are retained and available for distribution in
subsequent years. The calculation of distributable profits under China GAAP differs in many respects from the calculation under U.S. GAAP. As a result, our subsidiaries in PRC may not be able to pay any dividend in a given year as determined under
U.S. GAAP. The Chinas tax authorities may require changes in determining income of the Company that would limit its ability to pay dividends and make other distributions. PRC law requires companies, including our PRC subsidiaries, to reserve
about 10% of their profits for future development and staff welfare, which amounts are not distributable as dividends. These rules and possible changes to them could restrict our PRC subsidiaries from repatriating funds ultimately to us and our
stockholders as dividends.

Prior to the new unified enterprise income tax (EIT) law which became effective in
China on January 1, 2008, PRC-organized companies were exempt from withholding taxes with respect to earnings distributions, or dividends, paid to shareholders of PRC companies outside the PRC, such as was the case when our PRC subsidiaries
distributed portions of their earnings to our offshore subsidiaries. However, under the new EIT Law, dividends payable to foreign investors which are derived from sources within the PRC are subject to income tax at the rate of 10% by way of
withholding unless the foreign investors are companies incorporated in countries which have a tax treaty agreement with PRC and rate agreed by both parties will be applied. As a result of this new PRC withholding tax, amounts available to us in
earnings distributions from our PRC enterprises have been reduced. Since we derive most of our profits from our subsidiaries in the PRC, the reduction in amounts available for distribution from our PRC enterprises could, depending on the income
generated by our PRC subsidiaries, force us to reduce, or possibly

eliminate, the dividends we have paid to our shareholders historically. For this reason, or other factors, we may decide not to declare dividends in the future. If we do pay dividends, we will
determine the amounts when they are declared and even if we do declare dividends in the future, we may not continue them in any future period.

Under Chinas EIT Law, we may be classified as a resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes, which may subject us to PRC enterprise
income tax for any dividends we receive from our Chinese subsidiaries and to PRC income tax withholding for any dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders.

Under the PRCs new EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China whose de facto management bodies are located in China is considered a resident enterprise and is
subject to the 25% enterprise income tax rate on its worldwide income. The new EIT Law and its implementing rules are relatively new, and currently, no official interpretation or application of this new resident enterprise classification
is available. Therefore, it is unclear how tax authorities will determine the tax residency of enterprises established outside of China.

All of our manufacturing operations are conducted and managed in the PRC. Our corporate structure, illustrating our incorporation in British Virgin Islands and our ownership of companies inside and
outside of China, is set forth on page 21 of this Report. If the PRC tax authorities determine that our holding company structure utilizing companies outside of China is a resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, we
may be subject to an enterprise income tax rate of 25% on our worldwide taxable income. The resident enterprise classification also could subject us to a 10% withholding tax on any dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders if the
relevant PRC authorities determine that such income is PRC-sourced income. In addition to the uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of the new resident enterprise classification, the new EIT Law may change in the
future, possibly with retroactive effect. If we are classified as a resident enterprise and we incur these tax liabilities, our net income would decrease accordingly.

Controversies affecting Chinas trade with the United States could harm our operations or depress our stock price.

While China has been granted permanent most favored nation trade status in the United States, controversies between the United States and China may arise that threaten the status quo involving trade
between the United States and China. These controversies could adversely affect our business by, among other things, causing our products in the United States to become more expensive, which could result in a reduction in the demand for our products
by customers in the United States. Political or trade friction between the United States and China, whether or not actually affecting our business, could also adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common shares. This risk has increased
in recent years as our sales into the United States have accounted for significant amounts of our global sales.

Restrictions on the
convertibility of RMB into foreign currency may limit our ability to transfer excess funds or dividends to the companys subsidiaries outside China.

Our manufacturing operations are conducted by our subsidiaries located in China and funds are frequently transferred into our subsidiaries in China. Thus, any future restrictions on currency exchanges may
limit our ability to transfer excess funds or dividends outside China. Although the PRC government introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain,
including primarily the restriction that foreign-invested enterprises may only buy, sell and/or remit foreign currencies at those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business after providing valid commercial documents. The Chinese
regulatory authorities may impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of RMB, especially with respect to foreign exchange transactions.

Political and economic instability of Hong Kong and Macao could harm our operations.

Our administration and accounting office are located in Macao, formerly a Portuguese Colony and some of our customers and suppliers are located in Hong Kong, formerly a British Crown Colony. Sovereignty
over Macao and Hong Kong was transferred to China effective on December 20, 1999 and July 1, 1997, respectively. Since their transfers, Macao and Hong Kong have become Special Administrative Regions of China, enjoying a high degree of
autonomy except for foreign and defense affairs. Moreover, Chinas political system and policies are not practiced in Macao or Hong Kong. Under the principle of one country, two systems, Macao and Hong Kong maintain legal systems
that are different from that of China. Macaos legal system is based on the Basic Law of the Macao Special Administrative Region and, similarly, Hong Kongs legal system is based on the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative
Region. It is generally acknowledged as an open question whether Hong Kongs future

##### Table of Contents

prosperity in its role as a hub and gateway to China after Chinas accession to the World Trade Organization (introducing market liberalization in China) will be diminished. The continued
stability of political, economic or commercial conditions in Macao and Hong Kong remain uncertain, and any instability could have an adverse impact on our business.

The PRCs national labor law restricts our ability to reduce our workforce if we conclude that we need to make future reductions.

In June 2007, the National Peoples Congress of the PRC enacted labor legislation, called the Labor Contract Law, and that law
became effective on January 1, 2008. The law formalized workers rights concerning overtime hours, pensions, layoffs, employment contracts and the role of trade unions. Considered one of the strictest labor laws in the world, among other
things, this law requires an employer to conclude an open-ended employment contract with any employee who either has worked for the employer for 10 years or more or has had two consecutive fixed-term contracts. An open-ended
employment contract is in effect a lifetime, permanent contract, which is terminable only in specified circumstances, such as a material breach of the employers rules and regulations, or for a serious dereliction of duty. Such employment
contracts with qualifying workers would not be terminable if, for example, we determined to downsize our workforce in the event of an economic downturn. Under the 2007 law, downsizing by 20% or more may occur only under specified circumstances, such
as a restructuring undertaken pursuant to Chinas Enterprise Bankruptcy Law, or where a company suffers serious difficulties in production and/or business operations. Also, if we lay off more than 20 employees or 10% at one time, we have to
communicate with the labor union of our Company and report to the District Labor Bureau. Deswells entire staff, who are employed to work exclusively within the PRC, is covered by the new law. In response to prevailing economic conditions, we
reduced our workforce by 2000, 150 and 930 during the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively.

We may
need to downsize our workforce further in challenging economic environments and may incur substantial termination costs under Chinas Labor Contract Law if we determine to do so. Accordingly, this law can be expected to exacerbate the adverse
effect of the unfavorable economic conditions on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our customers are dependent on
shipping companies for delivery of our products and interruptions to shipping could materially and adversely affect our business and operating results.

Generally, we sell our products F.O.B. Hong Kong or F.O.B. China and our customers are responsible for the transportation of products from Hong Kong or China to their final destinations. Our customers
rely on a variety of carriers for product transportation through various world ports. A work stoppage, strike or shutdown of one or more major ports or airports could result in shipping delays materially and adversely affecting our customers, which
in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. Similarly, an increase in freight surcharges due to rising fuel costs or general price increases could materially and adversely affect our business and operating
results.

Protecting, seeking licenses for, or asserting claims over, intellectual property could be costly.

We usually rely on trade secrets, industry expertise and the sharing with us by our customers of their intellectual property. However,
there can be no assurance that intellectual property that we use in our business does not violate rights in such property belonging to others. We may be notified that we are infringing patents, copyright or other intellectual property rights owned
by other parties. In the event of an infringement claim, we may be required to spend a significant amount of money to develop a non-infringing alternative or to obtain licenses. We may not be successful in developing alternatives or in obtaining
licenses on reasonable terms, if at all. Any litigation, even without merit, could result in substantial costs and could adversely affect our business and operating results.

Our strategy has been to evaluate trade names and trademarks, and to consider seeking patents, where we believe that such trade names, trademarks or patents would be available and adequate to protect our
rights to products or processes that we consider material to our business. To the extent we do seek to obtain trade names, trademarks or patents, we may be required to institute litigation in order to enforce them or other intellectual property
rights to protect our business interests. Such litigation could result in substantial costs and could adversely affect sales, profitability and growth.

We are dependent on customers operating in highly competitive markets and the inability of our customers
to succeed in their markets can adversely impact our business, operating results and financial condition.

The end markets
we serve can experience major swings in demand which, in turn, can significantly impact our operations. Our financial performance depends on our customers ability to compete and succeed in their markets, which, apparently has been, and could
continue to be, affected directly by the current global economic conditions. The majority of our customers products are characterized by rapid changes in technologies, increased standardization of technologies and shortening of product
lifecycles. In many instances, our customers have experienced severe revenue erosion, pricing and margin pressures, and excess inventories during the past few years.

We could suffer losses from corrupt or fraudulent business practices. Conducting business in China is inherently risky.

Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft, and other fraudulent practices are common in China. For example, in fiscal 2006, we recorded a provision of approximately $1 million for doubtful sales
transactions, consisting of orders primarily from three customers for products of the metallic parts division of our electronic & metallic parts business segment that had been shown as shipped to, and received by, the customers but in fact
had been surreptitiously cancelled without shipment. Documentation reflecting the cancellation of the orders was uncovered following the departure of the General Manager of the Companys metallic parts division who, with the assistance of a
former Production and Materials Control Supervisor in that division had concealed such documentation. We could suffer additional losses from similar or other fraudulent practices if we are not successful in implementing and maintaining preventative
measures.

Because our operations are international, we are subject to significant worldwide political, economic, legal and other
uncertainties.

We are incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and have subsidiaries incorporated in the British Virgin
Islands, Hong Kong, Macao, Samoa and China. Our administrative and accounting office is located in Macao. We manufacture all of our products in China. As of March 31, 2011, approximately 67.5% of the net book value of our total identifiable
assets was located in China. We sell our products to customers principally in the United States, China, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Europe and Southeast Asia. Our international operations may be subject to significant political and economic risks and
legal uncertainties, including:



| |  |  | changes in economic and political conditions and in governmental policies,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in international and domestic customs regulations,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | wars, civil unrest, acts of terrorism and other conflicts,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in tariffs, trade restrictions, trade agreements and taxation,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties in managing or overseeing foreign operations, and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | limitations on the repatriation of funds because of foreign exchange controls.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The occurrence or consequences of any of these factors may restrict our ability to operate in the affected region and decrease the
profitability of our operations in that region.

We depend on our executive officers, senior managers and skilled personnel.

Our success depends largely upon the continued services of our executive officers as well as upon our ability to attract
and retain qualified technical, manufacturing and marketing personnel. Generally, our executive officers and senior managers are not bound by employment or non-competition agreements and we cannot assure you that we will be able retain them. The
loss of service of any of our officers or key management personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. We do not have key person insurance on our executive officers. We believe that our future success will
depend, in part, on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled executive, technical and management personnel and if we are not able to do so, our business and operating results could be harmed.

Compliance with current and future environmental regulations may be costly which could impact our future
earnings. Our results could be adversely affected if we have to comply with new environmental regulations.

Our operations
create some environmentally sensitive waste that may increase in the future depending on the nature of our manufacturing operations. The general issue of the disposal of hazardous waste has received increasing attention from Chinese national and
local governments and foreign governments and agencies and has been subject to increasing regulation. Currently, relevant Chinese environmental protection laws and regulations impose fines on discharge of waste materials and empower certain
environmental authorities to close any facility which causes serious environmental problems. Although it has not been alleged that we have violated any current environmental regulations by China government officials, the Chinese government could
amend its current environmental protection laws and regulations. Our business and operating results could be materially and adversely affected if we were to increase expenditures to comply with environmental regulations affecting our operations.

In addition, we could face significant costs and liabilities in connection with product take-back legislation, which enables
customers to return a product at the end of its useful life and charge us with financial and other responsibility for environmentally safe collection, recycling, treatment and disposal. We also face increasing complexity in our product design and
procurement operations as we adjust to new and upcoming requirements relating to the materials composition of our electronic products, including the restrictions on lead and certain other substances in electronics that apply to specified electronics
products put on the market in the European Union as of July 1, 2006 (Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (RoHS). The labeling provisions of similar legislation in China went into effect on
March 1, 2007. Consequently, many suppliers of products sold into the EU countries have required their suppliers to be compliant with the new directive. Many of these customers in our electronic division have adopted this approach and have
required our full compliance. Though we have devoted a significant amount of resources and effort planning and executing our RoHS program, it is possible that some of our products might be incompatible with such regulations. In such event, we could
experience the loss of revenue, damages to our reputation, diversion of resources, monetary penalties, and legal action. Other environmental regulations may require us to reengineer our products to utilize components that are more environmentally
compatible. Such reengineering and component substitution may result in additional costs to us. Although we currently do not anticipate any material adverse effects based on the nature of our operations and the effect of such laws, there is no
assurance that such existing laws or future laws will not have a material adverse effect on us.

Power shortages in China could affect our
business.

We consume substantial amounts of electricity in our manufacturing processes at our production facilities in
China. Certain parts of China, including areas where our manufacturing facilities are located, have been subject to power shortages in recent years. We have experienced a number of power shortages at our production facilities in China to date. We
are sometimes given advance notice of power shortages and in relation to this we currently have a backup power system. However, there can be no assurance that in the future our backup power system will be completely effective in the event of a power
shortage, particularly if that power shortage is over a sustained period of time and/or we are not given advance notice of it. Any power shortage, brownout or blackout for a significant period of time may disrupt our manufacturing, and as a result,
may have an adverse impact on our business.

A material failure of internal control over financial reporting could materially impact the
Companys financial results.

In designing and evaluating its internal control over financial reporting, management
recognizes that any internal control or procedure, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the
cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Management believes that the Companys internal control over financial reporting currently provides reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. However, no system of
internal controls can be designed to provide absolute assurance of effectiveness. See ITEM15 Controls and Procedures later in this Report. A material failure of internal control over financial reporting could materially impact
the Companys reported financial results and the market price of its stock could significantly decline. Additionally, adverse publicity related to a material failure of internal control over financial reporting could have a negative effect on
the Companys reputation and business.

Potential new accounting pronouncements are likely to impact our future financial position and results of
operations and in the case of FASBs pronouncement regarding the expensing of stock options have adversely impacted, and will in the future, adversely impact our financial results.

Deswell prepares its financial statements in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America
US GAAP. A change in these accounting principles and policies, especially as interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and The NASDAQ Stock Market, may have an impact on our future financial position and results of
operations. Historically, regulatory changes, such as the requirement of the Financial Accounting Standards Board to expense stock options grants, and other legislative initiatives have increased our general and administrative costs and future
changes could have a similar adverse impact on our financial results.

The concentration of share ownership in our senior management allows
them to control or substantially influence the outcome of matters requiring shareholder approval.

On June 30, 2011,
members of our senior management and Board of Directors as a group beneficially owned approximately 20.3% of our outstanding common shares. As a result, acting together, they may be able to control or at least substantially influence the outcome of
all matters requiring approval by our shareholders, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This ability may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of Deswell, or causing a
change in control of Deswell that may not be favored by our other shareholders.

Our boards ability to amend our charter without
shareholder approval could have anti-takeover effects that could prevent a change in control.

As permitted by the law of
the British Virgin Islands, our Memorandum and Articles of Association, which are the terms used in the British Virgin Islands for a corporations charter and bylaws, may be amended by our board of directors without shareholder approval
provided that a majority of our independent directors do not vote against the amendment. This includes amendments to increase or reduce our authorized capital stock or to create from time to time and issue one or more classes of preference shares
(which are analogous to preferred stock of corporations organized in the United States). Our boards ability to amend our charter documents without shareholder approval, including its ability to create and issue preference shares, could have
the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of Deswell, including a tender offer to purchase our common shares at a premium over the then current market price.

Our exemptions from certain of the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act limits the protections and information afforded to investors.

We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a foreign private
issuer, we are exempt or excluded from certain provisions applicable to United States public companies including:



| |  |  | the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the Commission of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect to a security registered under the
Exchange Act;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership and trading activities and establishing insider
liability for profits realized from any short-swing trading transaction (i.e., a purchase and sale, or sale and purchase, of the issuers equity securities within less than six months); and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Regulation FD, the SECs rules regulating disclosure of information by publicly traded companies and other issuers and requiring that when an
issuer discloses material nonpublic information to certain individuals or entities such as stock analysts, or holders of the issuers securities who may trade on the basis of the information, the issuer must make public disclosure of that
information.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, because we are a foreign private issuer, certain of the corporate governance
standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market that are applied to domestic companies having securities included on The NASDAQ Stock Market are not applicable to us. For example, as a foreign private issuer organized under the law of the British

Virgin Islands, we may follow our home company practice in lieu of some of the corporate governance provisions of sections 5600 et. seq. of NASDAQs Marketplace Rules. Accordingly, as
the law of the British Virgin Islands does not prohibit us from doing so and since our practices are in compliance with our Memorandum and Articles of Association, we follow our home company practices with respect to the following NASDAQ Market
Place rules:



| |  |  | Rule 5605(b)(2): Our independent directors do not meet in executive session;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Rule 5605(d): Our board does not have a compensation committee and compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers is
neither determined nor recommended to the board by a majority of our independent directors; and

Although we may also follow our home company
practice in lieu of NASDAQs Marketplace Rule 5605(b)(1) requiring the independence of a majority of our directors, during the year ended March 31, 2011 to date, the composition of our Board of Director has consisted of a majority of
directors deemed independent under that Rule.

Because of these exemptions or exclusions, investors are not
afforded the same protections or information generally available to investors in public companies organized in the United States and having securities included on The Nasdaq Stock Market.

ITEM4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

Corporate Information

Deswell Industries Inc. was founded in 1987 in Hong Kong and moved its manufacturing operations to China in 1990 to take advantage of
lower overhead cost, competitive labor rate and tax concessions available in Shenzhen, China as compared with Hong Kong. We were reincorporated in December 1993 as a limited liability International Business Company under the laws of the British
Virgin Islands. The Companys registered agent in the British Virgin Islands is Harneys Corporate Services Limited, P.O. Box 71, Craigmuir Chambers, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands. The Companys principal administrative office
is located in 17B, Edificio Comercial Rodrigues, 599 Avenida da Praia Grande, Macao, and its telephone number is (853) 2832-2096 and its facsimile number is (853) 2832-3265. Our principal manufacturing facilities and operations are
currently based in Dongguan, Guangdong, China.

Important Events in Deswells Development that Have Occurred since April 1, 2010

During the second quarter ended September 30, 2010, Deswell completed the sale of real property in Shekou, Shenzhen,
China that was formerly used for its plastic injection molding operations. The contract of sale of this property was entered into by parties in August 2009. Deswell recorded a gain on the sale, net of transaction costs, of $4.2 million for its year
ended March 31, 2010.

The Company recorded non-cash impairment charges to property, plant and equipment used in its
plastics segment of $4,474,000 during the year ended March 31, 2011, more than doubling the operating loss Deswell would have otherwise reported for the year. The year ended March 31, 2011 was the first time in its history as a public
company dating to the year ended March 31, 1996 that Deswell incurred a loss from operations and a net loss, reporting an operating loss of $8.8 million and a net loss of $8.1 million for the year. For a discussion of the impairment charge and
Deswells financial performance during fiscal 2011, please see ITEM5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and  Operating Results  Year ended
March 31, 2011 (Fiscal 2011) Compared to Year Ended March 31, 2010 (Fiscal 2010).

All of the foregoing capital expenditures were financed principally from internally generated funds and our current plan is to continue to use internally generated funds principally to finance future
capital expenditures.

As of March 31, 2009, the Company had completed the first three phases to construct its own
manufacturing plant and dormitory buildings in Houjie, Dongguan China with an aggregate of approximately 1.3 million square feet of land acquired from the local government in January 2000. Through March 31, 2009, we had spent an aggregate
of $58 million to equip and furnish the plant and buildings for operations.

Phase IV of construction, to consist of planned
additional two dormitory units and two other buildings, is planned for the long-term. We intend to commence construction with internally generated funds when we believe that additional production capacity may be required in the future. However, we
may choose to obtain debt or equity financing if we believe it appropriate to accelerate the last phase of the construction of our facilities or for future expansion.

Metal products manufactured by the Company include metallic molds and accessory parts used in audio equipment, telephones, copying
machines, pay telephones, multimedia stations, automatic teller machines, vending machines, etc.

As part of its manufacturing
operations, the Company consults with its customers in the design of plastic parts and the design and production of the molds used to manufacture plastic parts, which are made by Deswell at its customers expense, and provides advice and
assistance in the design and manufacturing of printed circuit boards. The Company believes that its ability to manufacture high-end plastic and metal parts of the quality required by OEMs and contract manufacturers which furnish products and
services internationally, Deswells expertise in designing and manufacturing molds for its customers and the Companys low production costs distinguish Deswell from most other manufacturers of plastic products and provide it with a
competitive advantage. However, this advantage has been difficult to maintain as a result of increased competition and increased production overheads during the last three fiscal years.

Industry Overview

Management believes that the injection molding and
metal molds and parts manufacturing industries have each benefited in recent years from a trend among major users of injection molded and metal products to outsource an increasing portion of the parts requirements and to select a small number of
suppliers or a sole supplier to provide those products. The Company is not aware of any empirical data defining the manufacturing industry in China, however, management believes that injection molding and metal manufacturing firms which are much
smaller than the Company make up the largest segment of the industry in China. The Companys experience indicates that such smaller firms are often unable to react quickly and responsively to the diverse demands of many customers and are not
capable of furnishing the level of quality that high-end plastic and metal products require. Management believes that this inability on the part of these smaller manufacturers has created opportunities for the Company to increase sales by catering
to the outsourcing requirements of OEMs and contract manufacturers that manufacture such high-end products.

Similarly, as a
result of the recognition by OEMs in the electronics industry of the rising costs of operating a manufacturing site and the need to add more sophisticated and expensive manufacturing processes and equipment, OEMs have turned increasingly to outside
contract manufacturers. By doing so, OEMs are able to focus on research, product conception, design and development, marketing and distribution, and to rely on the production expertise of contract manufacturers. Other benefits to OEMs of using
contract manufacturing include: access to manufacturers in regions with low labor and overhead costs, reduced time to market, reduced capital investment, improved inventory management, improved purchasing power and improved product quality. In
addition, the use of contract manufacturers has helped OEMs manage production in view of increasingly shorter product life cycles.

Operations

Plastic Injection
Molding

Plastic injection molding manufacturing accounted for 55.7%, 57.6% and 50.9% of the Companys total sales
during the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. At March 31, 2011, the Company

##### Table of Contents

conducted its plastic manufacturing operations in approximately 1,070,000 square feet of factory space in its factory located in Dongguan, Guangzhou, China.

The Companys plastic injection molding process consists of three phases: (1) mold design and production; (2) plastic
injection; and (3) finishing.

Mold design and production

The plastic injection-molding process begins when a customer provides the Company with specifications for a product or part, which
specifications are often created in consultation with the Companys technical staff. Next the Company designs and produces the mold, using great care in the design process and in the selection of materials to produce the mold in an effort to
create a high quality appearance of the completed product by reducing or eliminating potential flaws such as the sinkage of materials and irregularities in the knit line of joints. The mold-making process ranges from 30 to 110 days, depending on the
size and complexity of the mold. Mold making requires specialized machines and is capital intensive. At March 31, 2011, the Company used 30 EDMs (electrical discharge machines), 32 CNC (computer numerical control) milling machines and 83
NC (numerical control) milling machines in the mold-making process.

Molds produced by the Company generally weigh from 110 to
17,600 pounds and generally cost between $2,000 and $200,000.

The customer generally bears the cost of producing the molds
and, as is customary in the industry, the customer owns them. However, the Company maintains and stores the molds at its factory for use in production and it is Deswells policy generally not to make molds for customers unless the customer
undertakes to store its molds at the Companys factory and uses Deswell to manufacture the related parts. In that way, the Company seeks to use its mold-making expertise to create dependence on it for the customers parts requirements.
Beginning in 2005, however, through its then newly created Export Tooling Department, Deswells began producing molds for export to customers and thus does not use those molds to manufacture related parts.

During the year ended March 31, 2011, the Company made on average about 5 to 50 different molds every month. Management believes
that the Companys skills and expertise in mold-making, coupled with having its facilities and operations in China, allow the Company to produce molds at costs substantially less than molds of comparable quality made in Japan, Korea and Taiwan.

Plastic Injection

During the mold-making process, suitable plastic resin for the particular product is selected and purchased. See Raw Materials, Component Parts and Suppliers, below. The completed mold is
mounted onto injection machines, which are classified according to the clamping force (the pressure per square inch required to hold a mold in place during the injection molding process). At March 31, 2011, the Company had approximately 400
injection molding machines, ranging from 22 to 2,000 tons of clamping force, with most machines in the range of from 55 to 380 tons. Each of the Companys machines is capable of servicing a variety of applications and product configurations and
the Company has machines, which permit the Company to fabricate plastic parts as small as a button and as large as a 3 ft. x 2 ft. case for a copy machine.

Using separate shifts, injection molding can be conducted 24 hours a day, five to seven days per week, other than during normal down time for maintenance and changing of product molds. Molding of products
requiring extra concerns for appearance, such as cases for calculators, personal organizers and telephones are conducted in an isolated and dust free section of the factory. In a continuous effort to assure quality, the Companys quality
control personnel inspect the products produced from each machine generally at hourly intervals during production. When defects are discovered, the Companys maintenance personnel inspect the mold and the machine to determine which is
responsible. If the mold is the cause of the defect, it will be immediately removed from the machine and serviced or repaired by one of a team of technicians employed to maintain molds. The mold will then be remounted on the machine and production
will continue. If the machine is the source of the defect, the Companys technicians and engineers service the machine immediately. Through this continuous vigilance to molds and machines, the Company has experienced what it believes to be a
relatively low scrap rate and has been able to maintain a high level of productivity of its injection molding machines.

In
fiscal 2009, the Company purchased 53 new plastic injection molding machines for approximately $1.7 million, replacing 25 old injection molding machines.

In the year ended March 31, 2010, the Company did not acquire any new plastic injection molding machines.

During the year ended March 31, 2011, the Company acquired one new plastic injection molding machine for approximately $100,000 and disposed of 19 old injection molding machines. See Impairment

equipment used in its plastics injection molding business. Of the total write-down and impairment charge, $3,885,000 was associated with plant and machinery. .

Finishing

After injection molding, products are finished. Finishing
consists of smoothing and polishing, imprinting letters, numbers and signs through silk screening process, pad printing or epoxy ultra violet cutting, and treating the product with an anti-fog coating for a lasting and attractive appearance. Most of
these functions are conducted by hand.

Electronic Products and Assemblies

In an aggregate of approximately 223,000 square feet of factory space at March 31, 2011 located at facilities in Dongguan, China,
the Company manufactures and assembles electronic products and electronic assemblies for OEMs. Finished products include consumer and sophisticated studio-quality audio equipment, IPBX and commercial telephone units, network education platforms, IP
switches, routers etc. Assemblies consist of PCBs with passive (e.g., resistors, capacitors, transformers, switches and wire) and active (e.g., semiconductors and memory chips) components mounted on them. During the years ended March 31, 2009,
2010 and 2011, manufacturing of electronic products accounted for approximately 43.4%, 42.4% and 49.1%, respectively, of the Companys total sales.

In assembling printed circuit boards the Company purchases printed circuit boards, surface mounted components and chips and uses automatic insertion and pin-through-hole interconnection technologies to
assemble various components onto the PCBs. Before delivery, completed PCBs are checked by in-circuit-testers and outgoing quality assurance inspections are performed.

PTH is a method of assembling printed circuit boards in which component leads are inserted and soldered into plated holes in the board. While this technology is several decades old and is labor intensive,
it still has a significant market, particularly for consumer product applications.

BGA is a method of mounting an integrated
circuit or other component to a PCB. Rather than using pins that consume a large area of the PCB, the component is attached to the circuit board with small balls of solder at each contact. This method allows for greater component density and is used
in more complex PCBs.

SMT is the automatic process of printed circuit board assembly in which components are mounted directly
to the surface of the board, rather than being inserted into holes. With this process, solder is accurately stenciled in paste form on pads located on the printed circuit board and the components are then placed onto the solder paste and fused to
the melting point of the paste to establish a strong solder joint between components and the printed circuit board. The SMT process allows miniaturization of PCBs, cost savings and shorten lead paths between components (which results in faster
signal speed and improved reliability). Additionally, it allows components to be placed on both sides of the printed circuit board, a major factor for the purpose of miniaturization.

Manufacturing operations include PCB assembly, wiring and testing. The process is completed by assembling the PCBs into a plastic or
metal housing that comprises the finished product. Quality assurance is then conducted in accordance with the customers requirements before the shipment.

Metal Parts Manufacturing

In an aggregate of approximately 111,000 square
feet of factory space at March 31, 2011 located at facilities in Dongguan, China in the same complex and next to the Companys electronic products assembly facilities, Deswells metal forming division manufactures metallic molds and
accessory parts for use in audio equipment, routers, payphones, multimedia stations and ATMs. The Companys metal molds and metal parts (products) manufacturing accounted for less than one percent of Deswells total sales during each of
the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011.

Quality Control

The Company maintains strict quality control procedures for its products. At hourly intervals, the Companys quality control
personnel monitor machines and molds to assure that plastic parts are free from defects.

For electronic operations, the
Companys quality control personnel check all incoming components. Moreover, during the production stage, the Companys quality control personnel check all work in process at several points in the production process. Finally, after the
final assembly and before shipment, the Company conducts quality assurance inspections in accordance with the customers Acceptable Quality Level, or AQL, requirements.

Plastic, electronic and metal products manufactured and assembled at the Companys
facilities have a low level of product defects, and aggregate returns represented less than 3% of total net sales during each of the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011.

In 1995, the Company earned ISO 9001 certifications for both its plastic and electronic products manufacturing operations. In April 2000,
the Company also received ISO 9002 for its metal manufacturing operation. The ISO or International Organization for Standardization is a Geneva-based organization dedicated to the development of worldwide standards for quality management
guidelines and quality assurance. ISO 9000, which is the first quality system standard to gain worldwide recognition, requires a company to gather, analyze, document and monitor and to make improvements where needed. ISO 9001 is the ISO level
appropriate for manufacturers like the Company. The Companys receipt of ISO 9001 certification demonstrates that the Companys manufacturing operations meet the established world standards.

In August 2004, the Companys plastic injection manufacturing plant in Dongguan also obtained ISO 14001 certification, which
evidences that the Companys environmental management standards or EMS meet established international standards. ISO 14000 is a series of international standards on environmental management, ISO 14001 is the most well-known of these standards
and is often seen as the corner stone standard of the ISO 14000 series. In January 2006, the Companys electronic and metallic manufacturing plant also obtained ISO 14001 certification.

The Company was working toward having its plastic injection manufacturing plant to obtain QS 9000 Certification but before completing
that process elected to seek ISO/TS 16949 Certification. ISO/TS 16949 is an ISO Technical Specification. This specification aligns existing American (QS-9000), German (VDA6.1), French (EAQF) and Italian (AVSQ) automotive quality systems standards
within the global automotive industry. Together with ISO 9001:2000, ISO/TS 16949 specifies the quality system requirements for the design/development, production, installation and servicing of automotive related products. ISO/TS 16949 has been
accepted as an equivalent to QS-9000, VDA6.1, AVSQ, and EAQF. ISO/TS 16949 does not replace QS-9000; but is optional and eliminates the need for multiple certifications. Deswell obtained ISO/TS 16949 Certification in July 2006.

Raw Materials, Component Parts and Suppliers

Plastic Resins.

The primary raw materials used by the Company in the
manufacture of its plastic parts are various plastic resins, primarily ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene). The chart shows Deswells average cost of ABS as a percentage of the total cost of plastic products sold and as a percentage of total
cost of goods sold during its last three fiscal years.

LOGO

Because plastic resins are commodity products, the Company selects its suppliers primarily based on
price. The Company has no long-term supply agreements for plastic resins. The Company currently obtains majority of its plastic resins from suppliers in the United States, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Japan and Hong Kong and the remaining from
suppliers in Mainland China and normally maintains a two to three month inventory supply.

##### Table of Contents

The Company used in excess of 10,458,000 pounds of plastic resins during the year ended
March 31, 2011. Management believes that the Companys large volume purchases of plastic resin have generally resulted in lower unit raw material costs and generally has enabled the Company to obtain adequate shipments of raw materials.
While the Company is not generally bound by fixed price contracts with its customers, the Company has found that increases in resin prices can be difficult to pass on to its customers and, as a consequence, a significant increase in resin prices
could have, and in the past has had, a material adverse effect on the Companys operations.

The primary plastic resins
used by the Company are produced from petrochemical intermediates derived from products of the natural gas and crude oil refining processes. Natural gas and crude oil markets have in the past experienced substantially cyclical price fluctuations as
well as other market disturbances including shortages of supply and crises in the oil producing regions of the world. The capacity, supply and demand for plastic resins and the petrochemical intermediates from which they are produced are also
subject to cyclical and other market factors. Consequently, plastic resin prices may fluctuate as a result of natural gas and crude oil prices and the capacity, supply and demand for resin and petrochemical intermediates from which they are
produced. Over the past several years, oil prices have experienced significant volatility, remain extremely uncertain and have been increasing in recent months. Sustained increases in oil prices could result in higher costs for plastic resins.

Although the plastics industry has from time to time experienced shortages of plastic resins, the Company has not experienced
to date any such shortages. Management believes that there are adequate sources available to meet the Companys raw material needs.

Component Parts and Supplies for Electrical Products Manufacturing

The Company purchases a wide variety of component parts from numerous suppliers and is not dependent upon any single supplier for any essential component. The Company purchases from suppliers in China,
Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, United Kingdom, the United States and elsewhere. At various times there have been shortages of parts in the electronics industry, and certain components, including integrated circuits, diodes, transistors and
other semiconductors; have been subject to allocations by their suppliers because of limited available production capacity. Although shortages of parts and allocations have not had a material adverse effect on the Companys results of
operations, there can be no assurance that any future shortages or allocations would not have such an effect.

For a
discussion of various risks we face associated with obtaining needed components used in our manufacture of electronic products, please see Shortages of components and materials used in our production of electronics products may delay or reduce
our sales and increase our costs and We face inventory risks from by providing turnkey manufacturing of electronic products beginning on page 12 of the Risk Factor section of this Report.

Raw Metal

The primary
materials used by the Company in metal molds and parts manufacturing are various metals, but purchases of raw metal were immaterial to the Companys total operations during the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011. Typically, the
Company buys metals from a variety of suppliers in Hong Kong and China and has no long-term contracts with metal suppliers.

Transportation

Transportation of components and finished products to customers in Shenzhen and to and from Hong Kong and Shenzhen and
Dongguan is by truck. Generally, the Company sells its products F.O.B. China or F.O.B. Hong Kong. To date, the Company has not been materially affected by any transportation problems and has found that the transition of Hong Kong to Chinese control
in July 1997 has not had an adverse impact on the Companys ability to transport goods to and from Hong Kong and China.

Customers and
Marketing

The Companys customers are OEMs and contract manufacturers. The Company sells its products in the United
States, Asia (China and Hong Kong) and Europe (United Kingdom, Holland and Norway). Net sales to customers by geographic area are determined by reference to shipping destinations as directed by the Companys customers. For example, if the
products are delivered to the customer in Hong Kong, the sales are recorded as generated in Hong Kong; if the customer directs the Company to ship its products to Europe, the sales are recorded as sold to Europe. See Note 14 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for the dollar amounts of export sales by geographic area for each of the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011. Net sales as a percentage of total sales to customers by geographic area consisted of the following for
the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011:

We believe that our reported sales by geographic area in the above table do not necessarily reflect the
final destinations of our products or the actual nationalities of our customers. For example, we have reported product sales in China amounting to 42.7% of our total net sales for the year ended March 31, 2011 because China is where our
customers directed us to deliver the products. However, we believe that these sales were to offshore customers using local China shipping destinations, which in turn, transshipped our products offshore.

The Company markets its products and services to existing customers through direct contact with the Companys management and direct
sales personnel. The Companys sales personnel attend trade shows and the Company advertises in trade publications such as Modern Plastics International and Injection Molding. Collecting information from trade-show, as well as
websites, Deswells marketing staffs contacts existing and potential customers directly by telephone, mail, fax, e-mail via the Internet and in person, stressing Deswells capability as a complete solution provider for plastic injection
mold design, tooling and molding as well as an electronics manufacturing services, or EMS, provider of advanced technology manufacturing processes and flexible logistic services.

The Companys sales transactions with all of its customers are based on purchase orders received by the Company from time to time.
Except for these purchase orders, the Company has no written agreements with its customers. Sales of plastic parts, electronic products and metallic products are primarily made on credit terms, with payment in United States dollars or Hong Kong
dollars expected within 30 to 90 days of shipment. In certain cases, primarily new customers of electronic products, sales are supported by letters of credit and are payable in United States dollars. To date, the Company has not experienced any
significant difficulty in collecting accounts receivable on credit sales. Management communicates regularly with credit sale customers and closely monitors the status of payment and in this way believes it has kept the default rate low.
Additionally, plastic parts deliveries are made in several installments over a lengthy period of time, which permits the Company to withhold delivery in the event of any delinquency in payment for past shipments. While the Company has not
experienced any material difficulty in being paid by its customers, there can be no assurance that the Companys favorable collection experience will continue.

Customers

The Companys success depends to a significant extent on
the success achieved by its customers in developing and marketing their products, some of which may be new. Many of the industry segments served by the Companys customers are subject to technological change, which can result in short product
life cycles. The Company could be materially adversely affected if advances in technology or other factors reduce the marketability of essential products of its customers or if new products being developed by its customers do not attain desired
levels of acceptance.

Historically, and particularly before fiscal 2011, a substantial percentage of Deswells sales
were to a small number of major customers that each accounted for more than 10% of our net sales. During the years ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, the Companys major customers together accounted for 41.3% and 42.0% of its total net sales,
respectively. In the year ended March 31, 2011, however, Deswells sales to 10% or greater customers were limited to VTech Telecommunications Limited, which accounted for 14.6% of net sales.

The Companys sales are based on purchase orders and there are no long-term contracts with any of Deswells customers. The
percentage of sales to the Companys customers has fluctuated in the past and may fluctuate in future. Substantial decreases in sales to, or the loss of major customers, have adversely impacted Deswells sales and financial performance.
For example, N&J Company Ltd., the Companys largest customer in both fiscal 2009 and 2010, accounting for 19.2% and 28.6% of total sales during the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, reduced the volume of its orders
during the year ended March 31, 2011 to less than 10% of the Companys total sales. Similarly, Digidesign, Inc., Deswells largest customer in fiscal 2008, and one of its major customers in both fiscal 2009 and 2010, accounting for
12.0% and 12.7% of total sales during the years ended

March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, reduced the volume of its orders during the year ended March 31, 2011 to less than 10% of total sales. These reductions in sales to Deswells
major customers were a principal contributing factor to the decreases in total sales by the Company over the last three fiscal years and the operating and net losses suffered by Deswell during the year ended March 31, 2011.

Present or future customers could cease to use Deswell as the source of the injection-molded plastic parts and components it
manufactures, for electronic manufacturing services of electrical products and subassemblies or for metallic molds and accessories or significantly change, reduce or delay the amount of products and services ordered. The Companys sales will
continue to decline and its financial results will suffer further if VTech ceases, or substantially reduces, its orders unless Deswell can increase sales to new or existing customers.

Competition

We compete with a number of different companies in producing
of injection-molded plastic parts and components, electrical products and subassemblies and metallic molds and accessories. For example, we compete with major global EMS providers, other smaller EMS companies that have a regional or product-specific
focus, and original design manufacturers with respect to some of the services that we provide. We also compete with our current and prospective customers, who evaluate our capabilities in light of their own capabilities and cost structures. Our
market segments are extremely competitive, many of our competitors have achieved substantial market share and many have lower cost structures and greater manufacturing, financial or other resources than we do. We face particular competition from
Asian-based competitors, including Taiwanese EMS providers who compete in our end markets.

The Company believes that
competition for plastic injection molding, contract electronic manufacturing and metal molds and parts manufacturing businesses are based on price, quality, service and the ability to deliver products in a timely and reliable basis.

Patents, Licenses and Trademarks

The Company has no patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises, concessions or royalty agreements that are material to its business.

Seasonality

For information concerning the seasonality of the
Companys business, see Seasonality included under ITEM5 Operating and Financial Review and Prospects.

Property, Plants and Equipment

Macao

The Company leases Units 17B and 17E, Edificio Comercial Rodrigues, 599 Avenida da Praia Grande, Macao from an unaffiliated party, each
being for a term of two years to July 2012. The premises are used as trading, administrative and accounting office for the Companys plastic injection business and electronic & metallic business, respectively. The monthly rent is
approximately $2,350.

Southern China

In January 2000, the Company acquired under a land-lease agreement with the local government an aggregate of approximately 1.3 million square feet of land to construct its own manufacturing plant and
dormitory buildings in Houjie, Dongguan, China. Under the land-lease agreement, the Company has the right to use the land for 50 years. On this land, Deswell has through March 31, 2011 constructed approximately 1,070,000 square feet of factory
space,



| |  |  | 91,000 square feet of amenity space,

| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | 470,000 square feet of dormitory space.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------

Deswell now uses this facility for its plastic manufacturing operations.

The
Company owns 12 apartment units located near its plastic manufacturing factories that are used for housing senior management. At March 31, 2011, the Company leased one dormitory for factory staff near its plastics manufacturing factories in
Dongguan. The dormitory is leased for a period of one year expiring in August 2011. The aggregate monthly rental is approximately $400.

In July 2003, the Company acquired under a land-lease agreement with a third party an aggregate of approximately 244,000 square feet of land and approximately 420,000 square feet of buildings, including
six blocks

of dormitory buildings, a canteen, a factory building, a car park and a guard room, at Chang An, Dongguan, China, which was previously named Kwan Hong Building. The land use period is for 50
years from February 1, 2003 to January 31, 2053. The Company uses the facilities for its electronic products manufacturing operations.

At March 31, 2011, the Company leased approximately 69,400 square feet of manufacturing space in Chang An, Dongguan, China for its contract metal manufacturing operations. These premises are leased
from a third party and the lease expires in May 2013. The aggregate monthly rental is approximately $9,600.

Management
believes that Deswell will be able to renew each of the leases described above as it expires for periods comparable to the current term or find alternative space as needed.

The Company believes that its existing offices and manufacturing space, and manufacturing space in close proximity to its existing facilities, which management believes will be available as needed for
limited expansion, will be adequate for the operation of its business for at least the next two years.

ITEM5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

Except for statements of historical facts, this section contains forward-looking statements involving risks and
uncertainties. You can identify these statements by forward looking words including expect, anticipate, believe seek, estimate. Forward looking statements are not guarantees of
Deswells future performance or results and the Companys actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under the section of this
Report entitled Item 3. Key Information  Risk Factors.

Operating Results

The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included
following ITEM18 of this Report. The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

General

The Companys revenues are derived from the manufacture and sale of injection-molded plastic parts and components,
electrical products and subassemblies and metallic molds and accessories. Historically, the Companys plastics operations have been the mainstay of its business and have accounted for the majority of its sales. In fiscal 2011, however, sales
decreases in the plastic segment and sales increases in the electronic & metallic segment resulted in the Companys electronic and & metallic segment contributing to nearly half of Deswells total sales.

The Company carries out all of its manufacturing operations in Southern China, where it is able to take advantage of the lower overhead
costs and inexpensive labor rates as compared to Hong Kong. At the same time, the proximity of the Companys factories in Southern China to Hong Kong permits the Company to manage easily its manufacturing operations from Macao, facilitates
transportation of its products through Hong Kong and provides the Companys plastic manufacturing operations with access to electricity from Hong Kong and to nearby water, both of which resources are needed in abundance to manufacture plastic
parts and are often inadequate elsewhere in China.

PRC Income Taxes

Under PRC tax law in effect before January 1, 2008, we were afforded a number of tax concessions by, and tax refunds from,
Chinas tax authorities on a substantial portion of our operations in China by reinvesting all or part of the profits attributable to our PRC manufacturing operations. However, on March 16, 2007, the Chinese government enacted a new
unified enterprise income tax law which became effective on January 1, 2008. Under the new income tax law most domestic enterprises and foreign invested enterprises, like Deswell, would be subject to a single PRC enterprise income tax rate and
gradually transfer to the new tax rate of 25% within five years of the effective date. Following the implementation of the Enterprise Income Tax Law the State Council announced the transition rules for preferential tax policies (Guofa [2007] No.39)
of January 2, 2008, for eligible enterprises previously subject to a 15% tax rate or 24% tax rate. As so announced, the new enterprise income tax rates for tax year 2010 was, and such rates for tax years 2011 and 2012 (and thereafter) are:

|2010                |  | 22%                                                               |  | 25%                         
|2011                |  | 24%                                                               |  | 25%                         
|2012 and thereafter |  | 25%                                                               |  | 25%                         

Accordingly, with the enactment of new PRC Enterprise Tax effective January 1, 2008, the Company
expects the benefits it previously enjoyed, such as receiving tax refunds as a result of its reinvestment of profits in certain of its subsidiaries in China and favorable concession rates, will no longer be available.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360, Deswell reviews long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an
asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of property, plants and equipment by first grouping its long-lived assets with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash
flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities (the asset group) and, secondly, estimating the undiscounted future cash flows that are directly associated with and expected to arise from the use of and eventual
disposition of such asset group. The Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows over the remaining useful life of the primary asset within the asset group. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows,
the Company records an impairment charge to the extent the carrying value of



31

##### Table of Contents

the property, plants and equipment exceeds its fair value. The Company determines fair value through quoted market prices in active markets or, if quotations of market prices are unavailable,
through the performance of internal analysis using a discounted cash flow methodology. The undiscounted and discounted cash flow analyses all based on a number of estimates and assumptions, including the expected period over which the asset will be
utilized, projected future operating results of the asset group, discount rate and long-term growth rate. The recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted
future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge would be recognized by the amount that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds
the fair value of the asset.

Because of the decrease of the utilization rate of machines and equipment used in our plastic
injection molding business and the uncertain prospects for sales of certain products in that segment, the Company determined the impairment of its property, plants and equipment by comparing the undiscounted cash flows with the carrying amounts of
the assets at March 31, 2011. Accordingly, the Company recorded a write-down to the associated property, plant and equipments fair value on its balance sheet at, and an impairment charge of $4,474,000 on its statement of operations for
the year ended, March 31, 2011. See Note 6 of notes to consolidated financial statements included later in this report.

Business
Segment Information

Deswells operations are generally organized in three segments: plastic injection molding, which
we sometimes refer to as the plastics segment, and electronic products assembling and metallic parts manufacturing. The Companys reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. See Note
14 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Results from the Companys metallic parts manufacturing operations have not been material to the Companys operations as a whole and have therefore been combined with the electronic and
metallic segment for the table presentation and discussion below and elsewhere in this Report. As so combined, we refer to them as the electronic and & metallic segment. The following table sets forth selected consolidated
financial information presented as a percentage of net sales by segment for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2011.

Year ended March 31, 2011 (Fiscal 2011) Compared to Year Ended March 31, 2010 (Fiscal 2010)

Net Sales -The Companys net sales for the year ended March 31, 2011 were $84,022,000, an increase of $2,408,000 or
3.0% as compared to fiscal 2010. The increase was related to an increase in sales revenue of $6,644,000, or 19.2%, from our electronic & metallic segment, offsetting the decrease in sales revenue at our plastic segment of $4,236,000, or
9.0%, as compared with respective net sales from these segments in fiscal 2010.

The decrease in sales from the plastic
segment was mainly due to a change in product and customer mix stemming from a reduction of $9,976,000 in orders for plastic components used for electronic entertainment products from N&J Company Limited, the Companys largest customer in
fiscal 2010, both in the plastic segments and as a whole, accounting for 33.3% of plastic segment sales and 19.2% of total sales during the year ended March 31, 2010. This reduction in the plastics segment, which reduced sales to N&J to
less than 10% of total sales during

##### Table of Contents

fiscal 2011, was partially offset by an increase of $5,894,000 in sales to other customers of plastic components used for telephone and automotive products.

The increase in sales in the electronic & metallic segment was primarily attributable to an increase of $12,776,000 in orders
for professional audio instrument products from existing and new customers, offsetting a decrease of $6,132,000 in orders for professional audio and telecommunication products from Digidesign, Inc. the Companys largest customer in the
electronic & metallic segment and second largest customer as a whole during fiscal 2010, accounting for 25.7% of sales in the electronic & metallic segment sales and 10.8% of total sales during the year ended March 31, 2010.
The increase in sales in the electronic & metallic segment resulted from the combined effect of orders from new customers and increased orders for new product models from existing customers.

The adverse effect on our operating results from decreases in sales during fiscal 2011 to our two largest customers during fiscal 2010
illustrates our historical dependence on a few major customers and that a substantial decrease in sales from any of our larger customers adversely impacts our financial performance. See the discussion Historically we have been dependent on a
few major customers that accounted for a substantial percentage of our sales. The significant decrease in orders from major customers materially and adversely affected our results of operations in our year ended March 31, 2011. Our sales will
continue to decline and our financial results will suffer further if our major customer during fiscal 2011 ceases, or substantially reduces, its orders unless we can increase sales to new or existing customers under ITEM 3 Key
Information  Risk Factors.

Gross Profit -Gross profit for the year ended March 31, 2011 was $9,548,000,
representing a gross profit margin of 11.4%. This compared with the overall gross profit and gross profit margin of $12,656,000 or 15.5% for the year ended March 31, 2010.

Gross profit in the plastic segment decreased by $4,013,000, to $5,831,000, or 13.6% of net sales for the year ended March 31, 2011,
as compared to $9,844,000, or 20.9% of net sales, for fiscal 2010. The decrease in gross margin for the plastic segment was principally associated with increased labor cost related to regulatory increases in the minimum wage rates of factory workers
and higher overtime allowances, offsetting a decrease in material costs as a percentage of net sales, when compared with fiscal 2010.

Gross profit in the electronic & metallic segment was $3,717,000, or 9.0% of net sales, for the year ended March 31, 2011, as compared to $2,813,000, or 8.1% of net sales, for fiscal 2010.
The increase in gross margin was mainly attributed to an increase in sales volume of higher margin items and decrease in factory overhead expenses, offsetting the increase in labor costs as a result of regulatory increases in the minimum wage rates
of factory workers and increases in overtime allowances and average number of workers, as compared with fiscal 2010.

Selling, general and administrative expenses -SG&A expenses for the year ended March 31, 2011 were $13,941,000, or 16.6%
of total net sales, as compared to $15,505,000, or 19.0% of total net sales for the year ended March 31, 2010. SG&A expenses decreased by $1,564,000, or 10.1% in fiscal 2011, as compared to those expenses in fiscal 2010.

SG&A expenses in the plastic segment decreased by $1,604,000, to $8,980,000, or 21.0% of net sales, for the year ended March 31,
2011, compared to $10,584,000, or 22.5% of net sales, for fiscal 2010. The decrease was primarily related to decreases of $833,000 in staff housing and other costs associated with the headcount reduction in fiscal 2011, $352,000 in government
license and registration fees, $87,000 in stock compensation expenses and $424,000 in depreciation, offsetting an increase of $246,000 in compensation to executives in this segment and $115,000 in selling expenses, as compared to fiscal 2010.

SG&A expenses in the electronic and metallic segment increased by $40,000, to $4,961,000, or 12.1% of net sales, for the
year ended March 31, 2011, compared to $4,921,000, or 14.2% of net sales, for the fiscal 2010. The increase was primarily related to increases of $79,000 in selling expense and $99,000 in staff costs, offsetting decreases of $64,000 in
compensation to executives in this segment, $38,000 in stock compensation expenses and $104,000 in government license and registration fees, as compared with the fiscal 2010.

Other operating expense -Other operating expense was $4,435,000 for the year ended March 31, 2011, as compared to other operating income of $4,594,000 in the prior fiscal year.

On a segment basis, other operating expense attributable to the plastic segment for the year ended March 31, 2011 was $4,498,000, as
compared to other operating income of $4,250,000 for fiscal 2010. The other operating loss was mainly due to an exchange loss of $263,000, provisions of $229,000 for doubtful receivables and $4, 474,000 of charges for impairment of property, plant
and equipment fixed assets during the year ended March 31, 2011, as compared to a net gain of $4,198,000, included in other operating income for fiscal 2010, realized from the sale of the former plastic injection manufacturing plant in Shekou,
Shenzhen, China, offset by a provision for doubtful receivables of $71,000 and an exchange loss of $87,000 during fiscal 2010.

Other operating income attributable to the electronic & metallic segment for the
year ended March 31, 2011 was $63,000, as compared with other operating income of $344,000 for fiscal 2010. The decrease in other operating income was principally because of increases of $152,000 in exchange loss and $147,000 in provision for
doubtful receivables, as compared with fiscal 2010.

Operating Loss -Operating loss was $8,828,000 for the year ended
March 31, 2011, which compares to operating income of $1,745,000 for fiscal 2010.

On a segment basis, the operating loss
of the plastic segment was $7,647,000, or a negative 17.9% of net sales, in the year ended March 31, 2011, as compared to operating income of $3,509,000, or 7.4% of net sales in fiscal 2010. The decrease in operating income in the plastic
segment primarily resulted from the decrease in gross margin caused by higher labor costs and decrease in other operating income as described above.

The electronic and metallic segment reported an operating loss of $1,182,000, or a negative 2.9% of net sales, in the year ended March 31, 2011, compared to an operating loss of $1,764,000, or a
negative 5.1% of net sales in fiscal 2010. The decrease in operating loss was because of the net effect of the increase in gross margin and the decrease in SG&A expenses as described above.

Non-operating income Non-operating income for the year ended March 31, 2011 increased by $652,000 to $1,096,000 as
compared with the prior fiscal year. This is mainly accounted for by an increase of $652,000 in the realized gain on the sale of marketable securities as compared with fiscal 2010.

Income Taxes Income tax for the year ended March 31, 2011 was comprised of income tax expense of $596,000 and a
deferred tax benefit of $214,000, as compared to the income tax expense of $380,000 and a deferred tax provision of $310,000 in fiscal 2010.

the year ended March 31, 2010. The fiscal 2011 net loss was primarily attributable to decreased sales to the Companys largest customers in the plastics and electronic & metallic segments during fiscal 2010, $4,474,000 in
impairment charges of fixed assets and decreases in gross profit margin, as described above.

Net loss for the plastic segment
for the year ended March 31, 2011 totaled $6,955,000, as compared to net income of $3,446,000 for fiscal 2010. The net loss in the plastic segment was mainly the result of decreased sales to the Companys largest customer in the
plastics segment during fiscal 2010, $4,474,000 in impairment charges of fixed assets and decreases in gross margin as described above.

Net loss for the electronic & metallic segment for the year ended March 31, 2011 was $1,159,000, compared to a net loss of $1,947,000 for the prior fiscal year. The decrease in net loss
of the electronic and metallic segment was mainly from the increase in sales revenues despite decreased sales to the Companys largest customer during fiscal 2010, improvement in gross margin and the deferred tax benefit resulting from fiscal
2011, as described above.

Year ended March 31, 2010 Compared to Year Ended March 31, 2009

Net Sales - The Company's net sales for the year ended March 31, 2010 were $81,614,000, a decrease of $50,124,000 or 38.0% as
compared to fiscal year 2009. The decrease was related to a decrease in sales revenue at our plastic segment of $26,391,000 as well as $23,733,000 at our electronic & metallic segment. This represented decreases of 36.0% and 40.7%,
respectively, as compared with the respective net sales from these segments in the prior fiscal year. The revenue decrease at the plastic segment was mainly due to the decrease in orders from existing customers of $30,648,000 offsetting the increase
in net sales from other existing and new customers of $3,002,000 and $1,255,000, respectively, as a result of the generally weak economy. About 83% of the decrease in net sales for the year ended March 31, 2010 was accounted for by one of the
segments major customers related to plastic component sales of electronic entertainment products. Net sales from this major customer for the year ended March 31, 2010 had dropped by about 59% due to a decrease in orders for one of their
main products, as compared with the prior fiscal year.

The revenue decrease in the electronic and metallic segment was mainly
due to the decrease in orders of professional audio and electronics products from existing customers of $24,470,000 and $5,292,000, respectively, and a decrease in distributions sales of $692,000, offsetting the increase in orders from existing and
new customers for professional audio instrument products of $6,721,000. The decrease in orders was due to the combined effect of the global economic downturn, persistent pressure of losing orders to lower-priced competitors, as well as change of
customer mix.

Deswells largest customer in both fiscal 2009 and 2010, N&J Company Ltd., reduced the volume of its
orders during the year ended March 31, 2010 to 19.2% of Deswells total sales from 28.6% of our total sales in fiscal 2009. Similarly, Digidesign, Inc. Deswells largest customer in fiscal 2008 reduced the volume of its orders during
the year ended March 31, 2009 to 12.7% of Deswells total sales from 17.0% of its total sales in fiscal 2008. These reductions in sales of the Companys major customers contributed to the decreases in Deswells total sales in
fiscal 2009 from fiscal 2008 and in fiscal 2010 from fiscal 2009.

Gross Profit - The gross profit for the year ended
March 31, 2010 was $12,656,000, representing a gross profit margin of 15.5%. This compared with the overall gross profit and gross profit margin of $20,168,000 or 15.3% for the year ended March 31, 2009.

Gross profit in the plastic segment decreased $3,108,000 to $9,844,000 or 20.9% of net sales for the year ended March 31, 2010, as
compared to $12,952,000 or 17.6% of net sales, for the same period in the prior year. Despite the reduction of gross profits, which resulted from a 36% decrease in sales during the year ended March 31, 2010, Deswells gross profit margin
percentage in the plastic segment increased by 3.3%. The improvement in gross profit margin as a percentage of sales in the plastic segment during the year ended March 31, 2010 primarily resulted from lower material costs as a percentage of
sales stemming from a reduction of sales of lower profit margin items and from a 14% drop in the average costs of resin used in the manufacture of plastic products. These improvements were partially offset by higher factory overhead as a percentage
of sales for the year ended March 31, 2010, when compared with fiscal 2009.

Gross profit in the electronic &
metallic segment decreased by $4,403,000 to $2,813,000 or 8.1% of net sales, for the year ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $7,216,000 or 12.4% of net sales, for last year. Decrease in the gross profit as a percentage of sales was mainly
attributed to higher raw materials cost and factory overhead as a percentage of sales for the year ended March 31, 2010, when compared with fiscal 2009.

Selling, general and administrative expenses - SG&A expenses for the year ended March 31, 2010 were $15,505,000, amounting to 19.0% of total net sales, as compared to $19,290,000 or 14.6%
of total net sales for the year ended March 31, 2009. There was a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses of $3,785,000 or 19.6% over the corresponding period of last year.

The SG&A expenses for the year ended March 31, 2010 in the plastic segment decreased by $1,381,000 to $10,584,000 or 22.5% of
net sales, as compared to $11,965,000 or 16.3% of net sales for fiscal 2009. The decrease was primarily related to the decrease of $442,000 in selling expenses, $295,000 in director remuneration due to resignation of a co-founder during fiscal 2009,
$422,000 in traveling expenses and $149,000 in equipment maintenance, offsetting an increase of $175,000 in sundry expenses as compared with last fiscal year.

The SG&A expenses in the electronic & metallic segment decreased by $2,405,000 to $4,921,000 or 14.2% of net sales, for the year ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $7,326,000 or 12.6%
of net sales for fiscal 2009. The decrease was primarily related to the decreases of $423,000 in selling expense, $1,352,000 in staff costs related to a 30% reduction in headcount, $322,000 in officers remuneration due to the resignation of a
co-founder of the electronic & metallic segment, $108,000 in travelling expense and $82,000 in office operating expense, as compared with the prior year.

Other operating income - Other operating income was $4,594,000 for the year ended
March 31, 2010, as compared to other operating expense of $132,000 in fiscal 2009.

On a segment basis, other operating
income attributable to the plastic segment for the year ended March 31, 2010 was $4,250,000, as compared to an operating income of $348,000 for the prior fiscal year. The increase in other operating income for the year ended March 31, 2010
was mainly attributable to a net gain of $4,198,000 that Deswell recognized from the sale of its former manufacturing plant in Shekou, Shenzhen, China, as compared to an exchange gain of $901,000, a provision for doubtful receivables of $275,000 and
a loss incurred on a sale of fixed assets of $236,000 in the prior year.

Other operating income attributable to the
electronic and metallic segment for the year ended March 31, 2010 was $344,000, as compared to other operating expense of $480,000 in prior year. Fiscal 2010 other operating income was attributable to an exchange gain of $44,000, a gain of
$156,000 on sales of scrap materials and $113,000 in other income for the year ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $196,000 in exchange loss and a provision of other receivables of $437,000 for fiscal 2009.

net sales in the year ended March 31, 2010 compared to operating income of $1,335,000 or 1.8% of net sales in fiscal 2009. The increase in operating income in the plastic segment was mainly the result of an increase in other operating income
offsetting the decrease in sales revenue and an increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales, as discussed above.

The operating loss of the electronic and metallic segment was $1,764,000, or a negative 5.1% of net sales in that segment in the year
ended March 31, 2010 compared to operating loss of $590,000 or a negative of 1.0% of net sales in fiscal 2009. The increase in operating loss for the electronic and metallic segment primarily resulted from a decrease in sales revenue and
correspondingly lower gross profit amount, as discussed above.

Non-operating income  Non-operating income for
the year ended March 31, 2010 increased by $276,000, to $444,000, as compared with fiscal 2009. This increase was mainly attributable to interest income of $166,000, an unrealized gain on the revaluation of marketable securities of $39,000 in
the plastic segment, and as a realized gain of $160,000 from the sale of marketable securities in the electronic and metallic segment.

plastic segments year-to-date income tax expense of $379,000 was incurred and payable by one of the Companys subsidiaries. Such income tax was charged on the subsidiarys current taxable profit, after recognizing the gain on the
sale of its former manufacturing plant in the second fiscal quarter of 2010 net of the subsidiarys accumulated tax loss carryforward from fiscal 2009.

The income tax expense and deferred tax provision for the electronic and metallic segment was $1,000 and $401,000, respectively for year ended March 31, 2010, as compared to the income tax expense of
$27,000 and a deferred tax benefit of $241,000 for fiscal 2009.

The first calendar quarter (the fourth fiscal quarter ending March 31 of our fiscal year) is
typically the Companys slowest sales period because, as is customary in China, the Companys manufacturing facilities in China are closed for two weeks for the Chinese New Year holidays. Through March 31, 2011, the Company has not
experience any other significant seasonal fluctuations.

Impact of Inflation

Historically, the Company focused upon increasing transaction volume in order to compensate for inflation in China, where virtually all
of the Companys assets and employees are located and inflation in China had little impact on Deswell. However, in addition to the appreciation of the RMB to the US dollar, inflation in China has recently affected the Company significantly.

The consumer price index (CPI), a major gauge of Chinas inflation, rose 4.9 % in January 2011 from a year earlier
as food prices increased 10.3% due to rising demand and a drought in key grain-growing regions. The central government of China has been encouraging wage hikes in the hope of boosting consumer spending and reducing the economys reliance on
exports.

There is no fixed minimum wage which is applicable to all of China; local governments in China adopt different
minimum wage amounts based on the situation in their area. Effective March 1, 2010, Chinas Guangdong Province, where Deswells manufacturing facilities are located, raised minimum wages by approximately 20% and effective
March 1, 2011 again increased the minimum wage by another approximately 20%. The 2010 increase in minimum wages directly affected the Companys cost of labor, increasing our overall operating expenses and adversely affecting our financial
results for its year ended March 31, 2011. The 2011 minimum wage increase can be expected to increase Deswells operating expenses during its year ending March 31, 2012 from the amount reported for fiscal 2011 and similarly adversely
impact operating results during the coming year.

Continuing material increases in our cost of labor will continue to increase
the Companys operating costs and will adversely affect Deswells financial results unless it passes on such increases to customers by increasing the prices of products and services. The effect of increases in the prices of products and
services would make the Companys products more expensive in global markets, such as the United States and the European Union. This could result in the loss of customers, who may seek, and be able to obtain, products and services comparable to
those Deswell offers in lower-cost regions of the world. If the Company does not increase prices to pass on the effect of increases in labor costs, Deswells margins and profitability would suffer.

Because most of the Companys labor costs are incurred in China and therefore paid in RMB, the adverse effect on Deswells
business and financial results from increasing labor costs is exacerbated by the appreciation in the exchange rate to the US dollar, as is discussed in Exchange Rates immediately below.

##### Table of Contents

Exchange Rates

The Companys sales are mainly in United States dollars and Hong Kong dollars and its expenses are mainly in United States dollars, Hong Kong dollars and Chinese RMB.

The Hong Kong dollar has been pegged to the U.S. dollar at approximately 7.80 and relatively stable. The exchange rates between the Hong
Kong dollars and the U.S. dollar were approximately 7.750, 7.764 and 7.789 at March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. The Hong Kong government may not continue to maintain the present currency exchange mechanism, which fixes the Hong Kong
dollar at approximately 7.80 to each United States dollar and has not in the past presented a material currency exchange risk. Although announcements by Hong Kongs central bank indicate its intention to maintain the currency peg between the
Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar, if Hong Kong does change and follows China to a floating currency system or otherwise changes the exchange rate system of Hong Kong dollars to the U.S. dollars, our margins and financial results could be
adversely affected.

Between 1994 and July 2005, the market and official RMB rates were unified and the value of the RMB was
essentially pegged to the U.S. dollar and was relatively stable. On July 21, 2005, the Peoples Bank of China adjusted the exchange rate of RMB to the U.S. dollar by linking the RMB to a basket of currencies and simultaneously setting the
exchange rate of RMB to U.S. dollars, from 1:8.27, to a narrow band of around 1:8.11. The following chart illustrates the fluctuations since the July 31, 2005 adjustment of the RMB to the US dollar by showing the exchange ratio at the end of
each Deswells fiscal years from March 31, 2006 to March 31, 2011.

The appreciation and depreciation in the exchange ratio of the RMB to the US dollar increases and decreases, respectively, our costs and
expenses to the extent paid in RMB. Approximately 35.1%, 51.0% and 47.0% of our total costs and expenses were in RMB during the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively.

In mid-2008, the Chinese government halted allowing the RMB to appreciate against the dollar
as it did during earlier periods since July 25, 2005 because of concerns that the stronger RMB was hurting Chinese exports at a time of global recession. Accordingly, as shown in the above table, there was virtually no change in the exchange
ratio of the RMB to the US dollar during our year ended March 31, 2010. However, on June 19, 2010 Chinas central bank announced that it planned to introduce more flexibility in the management of its currency and since then the RMB
has again begun to appreciate against the US dollar, However, on June 19, 2010 Chinas central bank announced that it planned to introduce more flexibility in the management of its currency and since then the RMB has again begun to
appreciate against the US dollar, increasing 3.9% at March 31, 2011 from the midpoint level at March 31, 2010, and increasing to 1:6.4358 , or 1.9%, at July 29, 2011 from the midpoint level at March 31, 2011, as reported by
Historical Exchange Rates at http://www.oanda.com/currency/historical-rates/.

We did not hedge our currency risk
during the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011 and at March 31, 2011, we had no open forward currency contracts. We continually review our hedging strategy and there can be no assurance that hedging techniques we may implement will
be successful or will not result in charges to our results of operations.

2009 Change in Functional Currency

Prior to January 1, 2009, the functional currencies of our subsidiaries were Hong Kong dollars and Chinese renminbi, or RMB.
Effective January 1, 2009, the functional currencies of all our subsidiaries were changed to U.S. dollars. The U.S. dollar is considered by management to be the most appropriate functional currency of Deswells subsidiaries because over
the years, and especially in our year ended March 31, 2009 and continuing in our years ended March 31, 2010 and 2011, most of our customers contracted with our subsidiaries in U.S. dollars. The following table shows the percent of our
sales that were denominated in US dollars for the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011:

Primarily because of the stability of the exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar,
which has existed since the Hong Kong government pegged the exchange rate at HK$7.80 to US$1.00 in 1983, and, to a lesser degree, because of the relative stability in the exchange rate of the RMB to the U.S. dollar since mid-2008 when the Chinese
government halted allowing the RMB to appreciate against the dollar, the actual effect of the change in our functional currency to the U.S. dollar was immaterial to our results of operations, liquidity and cash flows for our years ended
March 31, 2009 or March 31, 2010. Similarly, and although the exchange rate of the RMB to the US dollar resumed appreciating to the US dollar during our year ended March 31, 2011, the fiscal 2009 change in our functional currency to
the U.S. dollar was not material to our results of operations, liquidity and cash flows for our years ended March 31, 2011. Irrespective of our functional currency, however, the volatility of the exchange rate of the RMB to US impacts our
results of operations, positively or negatively, depending on the amounts of expenses our subsidiaries pay in RMB and whether the RMB depreciates or appreciates to the US dollar. As discussed under Exchange Rates above, the exchange rate
of the RMB resumed significant appreciation to the US dollar beginning in June, 2010 when Chinas central bank announced that it planned to introduce more flexibility in the management of Chinas currency and appreciated approximately 4.1%
at March 31, 2011 from the exchange rate at March 31, 2010. Accordingly, our operating expenses increased, and our results of operations were negatively impacted, by the appreciation of the RMB to US dollar during the year ended
March 31, 2011. If the RMB continues appreciating to the U.S. dollar, our operating costs would continue to increase and our financial results would be adversely affected. See the Risk Factor entitled Changes in currency exchange rates
have and could continue to significantly affect our financial results on page 8 of this Report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the year ended March 31, 2011, net cash used in operations totaled $3,194,000, including the net loss of
$8,114,000, depreciation and amortization expenses of $6,197,000 and impairment of property, plant and equipment charges of $4,474,000. Accounts receivable increased by $3,189,000 over levels at March 31, 2010, primarily as a result of changes
in customer mix with different credit terms. Inventories increased by $5,117,000 over levels at March 31, 2010, primarily resulting from the increased purchases of raw materials related to orders from certain customers that consisted of
work-in-progress of plastic and electronics products at March 31, 2011. Accounts

payable decreased by $434,000 over levels at March 31, 2010, primarily because of the decrease in materials purchases. For the year ended March 31, 2010, net cash generated from
operations totaled $14,351,000, including net income of $1,499,000 and depreciation and amortization expenses of $7,011,000.

Net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $4,513,000 for the year ended March 31, 2011, while net cash used in investing
activities in fiscal 2010 amounted to $1,449,000. Capital expenditures during these periods totaled $1,034,000 and $1,606,000, respectively. Our capital expenditures were primarily related to the acquisition of property, plant and equipment for our
two manufacturing plants in Dongguan, China. In fiscal 2011, we acquired marketable securities for $8,049,000 and received cash proceeds from sale of the marketable securities for $13,509,000. In fiscal 2010, we acquired marketable securities for
$5,631,000 and received proceeds of $5,185,000, net of transaction costs, from the sale of our former manufacturing plant in Shekou, Shenzhen, China.

Net cash used in financing activities for the years ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were $804,000 and $916,000, respectively. Net cash we used in financing activities during the year ended
March 31, 2011 was mainly to fund dividend payments to shareholders of $810,000. Net cash we used in financing activities during the year ended March 31, 2010 was primarily to fund dividend payments to shareholders of $1,619,000 and net of
the proceeds of $703,000 from the exercise of stock options from directors and employees.

As a consequence of the fixed
exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar, interest rates on Hong Kong dollar borrowings are similar to U.S. interest rates. The Hong Kong Prime Rate at March 31, 2011 remained at 5.0% from March 31, 2010.

At March 31, 2011, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $35,635,000. At that date, Deswell had no committed credit
facilities and no restricted cash. Deswell expects that working capital requirements and capital additions will continue to be funded through cash on hand and internally generated funds. However, Deswell may choose to seek to obtain additional debt
or equity financing if it believes it to be appropriate and available on reasonable terms. The Companys working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth in the Companys business.

At March 31, 2011, the Company had capital commitments totaling $83,000 for a new enterprise resource planning software system
upgrade project and other capital commitments aggregating approximately $9,000 to purchase furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements, all of which it expects to disburse during the year ending March 31, 2012.

A summary of our contractual obligations and commercial commitments as of March 31, 2011 is as follows:

Company or any of its subsidiaries $2,000 per month for services as a director, and to reimburse directors for all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with their services as a director and member of Board committees.

The Board has determined that Messrs. Hung-Hum Leung, Allen Yau-Nam Cham and Wing-Ki Hui are each independent within the
meaning of Rule 5605(a) (2) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.

Board Practices

The directors of the Company are elected at its annual meeting of shareholders and serve until their successors take office or until
their death, resignation or removal. The executive officers serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors of the Company.

Audit
Committee

The Audit Committee meets from time to time to review the financial statements and matters relating to the
audit and has full access to management and the Companys auditors in this regard. The Audit Committee recommends the engagement or discharge of the Companys independent accountants, consults on the adequacy of the Companys internal
controls and accounting procedures and reviews and approves financial statements and reports. Deswells audit committee consists of Messrs. Hung-Hum Leung, Allen Yau-Nam Cham and Wing-Ki Hui, each of whom is an independent director within the
meaning of that term under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. Mr. Allen Yau-Nam Cham currently acts as the Chairman of the Audit Committee.

Other Committees; NASDAQ Compliance

In August 2005, Deswell determined to
disband and no longer have either a compensation committee or a nominating committee as the law of the British Virgin Islands, Deswells place of organization, and Deswells Memorandum and Articles of Association do not require it to have
such committees. Moreover, the law of the British Virgin Islands does not require that the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers to be determined or recommended to the board by a majority of our independent
directors or require that nominees for appointment as our directors be selected or recommended by a majority of our independent directors. Although such board practices or committees, consisting of independent directors as defined by NASDAQs
Marketplace Rules, are required of U.S. domestic public companies with securities listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market, they are not required of foreign private issuers such as Deswell if such issuers follow their home country practice. In addition to
not having a compensation committee or a nominating committee consisting of independent directors, Deswell also follows home country practice of not having nominees to its board selected or recommended by a majority of its independent directors; not
having the compensation of its Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers determined or recommended to the board by a majority of our independent directors; and Deswells independent directors do not meet in executive session.

Until the retirement of Chi Wai Leung effective January 1, 2009, who, in addition to serving as our Executive Director
of Engineering for Plastic Operations, also served on our board of directors, a majority of our Board of Directors were not independent directors within the definition of independent director in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule
4200(a)(15) (which was in effect at the time of such resignation and has since been replaced without material change by NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2)) and accordingly we did not theretofore comply

with then applicable NASDAQ Market place Rule 4350(c)(1). Although our Board now consists of a majority of independent directors, if we choose to fill Mr. Leungs former position on our
Board with a member of our management team or a person not otherwise deemed independent under NASDAQs Marketplace Rules, we would not then comply with NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(b)(1) (which replaced NASDAQ Market place Rule
4350(c)(1) effective April 13, 2009) and our corporate governance standards would again differ in this regard from those applied to US domestic issuers under NASDAQs Marketplace Rules. See also Our exemptions from certain of the
reporting requirements under the Exchange Act limits the protections and information afforded to investors on page 18 in the Risk Factors section of this Report for a further discussion of how our SEC reporting and corporate governance
practices differ from those applicable to US domestic issuers and US NASDAQ-listed companies.

Related Party Transactions

Deswell had no transactions of the kind
specified in ITEM7.B. of Form 20-F from April 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011, the latest practical date prior to filing of this Report.

Since Deswell completed its initial public offering in the United States, it has been Deswells policy that all transactions between Deswell and any interested director or executive officer be
approved by a majority of the disinterested directors and be on terms that are no more favorable than would be available from an independent third party.

Dividend Policy

Commencing with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, the Company announced it would pay cash dividends on a quarterly basis based upon the Companys quarterly results. Under this dividend
policy, the Company declared and paid dividends during the year ended March 31,



| |  |  | 2009 aggregating $3,790,000, $1,895,000 of which was based on results for the last quarter of the year ended March 31, 2008 and $1,895,000 of

| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company currently plans to continue its quarterly dividend policy as announced, but such plans and policy for future dividends
consist of forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Whether future dividends will be declared will depend upon the Companys
future growth and earnings, of which there can be no assurance, and the Companys cash flow needs for future development, which growth, earning or cash flow needs may be adversely affected by one or more of the factors discussed in
ITEM3. Key Information  Risk Factors. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that future cash dividends on the Companys common shares will be declared, what the amounts of such dividends will be or whether such
dividends, once declared for a specific period will continue for any future period or at all.

any part thereof, to issue debentures, debenture stock and other securities whenever money is borrowed or as security for any debt, liability or obligation of Deswell or of any third party.

British Virgin Islands law and our Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association do not contain an age limit requirement for our
directors. Under our Articles of Association, no shares are required for directors qualification.

Rights, Preferences and
Restrictions of Authorized and Outstanding Shares and Changes to Rights of Shareholders

Deswell has one class and series
of shares authorized or outstanding: common shares, no par value per share. Our authorized capital consists of 30,000,000 common shares, no par value per share, of which 16,196,810 common shares were outstanding on June 30, 2011.

Holders of our common shares are entitled to one vote for each whole share on all matters to be voted upon by shareholders, including the
election of directors. Holders of our common shares do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. All of our common shares are equal to each other with respect to liquidation and dividend rights. Holders of our common shares are
entitled to receive dividends if and when declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available under British Virgin Islands law. In the event of our liquidation, all assets available for distribution to the holders of our common shares
are distributable among them according to their respective holdings. Holders of our common shares have no preemptive rights to purchase any additional, unissued common shares.

Calling Annual General Meetings and Extraordinary General Meetings of Shareholders

British Virgin Islands law does not require a company, such as Deswell, to have an annual meeting. Our Articles of Association do, however, require an annual meeting of shareholders for the election of
directors and for such other business as may come before the meeting (Regulation 6.3).

Under British Virgin Islands law,
unless otherwise provided by a company's Memorandum of Association or Articles of Association, the directors may call meetings of shareholders at any time (Regulation 6.1) and upon the written request of shareholders entitled to exercise ten percent
or more of the voting rights in respect of the matter for which the meeting is requested, the directors shall convene a meeting of Shareholders (Regulation 6.2).

British Virgin Islands law and our Articles of Association state that the directors may fix the date that notice is given of a meeting of shareholders, whether extraordinary or annual, as the record date
for determining those shares that are entitled to vote at the meeting. (Regulation 6.6)

British Virgin Islands law and our
Articles of Association provide that notice of all meetings of shareholders, stating the time, place and purposes thereof, shall be given not fewer than seven days before the date of the proposed meeting to those persons whose names appear as
shareholders in our share register on the date of the notice and are entitled to vote at the meeting. (Regulation 6.7)

Limitations on
Share Ownership

British Virgin Islands law and our Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association do not impose
any limitations on the right of anyone to own, hold or exercising voting rights to our common shares.

Potential Anti-Takeover Deterrence

Neither our Articles of Association nor Memorandum of Association contain provisions that would have an effect of delaying, deferring or
preventing a change in control of Deswell and that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring involving Deswell or any of its subsidiaries. However, pursuant to our Memorandum and Articles of Association and
pursuant to the laws of the British Virgin Islands, our board of directors without shareholder approval may amend our Memorandum and Articles of Association (provided that a majority of our independent directors do not vote against the amendment and
provided further that our directors may not make an amendment that

(a) to restrict the rights or powers of the shareholders
to amend the Memorandum or the Articles;

(b) to change the percentage of shareholders required to pass a Resolution of
Shareholders to amend the Memorandum or the Articles;

(c) in circumstances where the Memorandum or the Articles cannot be
amended by the Shareholders;

(d) change Clause 7 of our Articles of Association conferring the rights of our shareholders to
one vote per share, the right to equal share in dividend paid by the company or to surplus assets on liquidation; or

(e)
change Clause 9 of our Articles of Association which sets forth rights of our shareholders and directors to amend our Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Our directors ability to amend our Memorandum and Articles of Association without shareholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of Deswell,
including a tender offer to purchase our common shares at a premium over the then current market price.

Ownership Information

Neither our Articles of Association nor Memorandum of Association provide that information about our shareholders, even
those owning significant percentages of our shares, must be disclosed.

Differences from United States Law

The laws of the British Virgin Islands governing the provisions of our Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association discussed
above are not significantly different than the laws governing similar provisions in the charter documents of Delaware companies, other than with respect to amending our Memorandum of Association without shareholder approval and with respect to
potential anti-takeover deterrence. Delaware law requires shareholders to approve any amendments to a corporations Certificate of Incorporation and contains provisions restricting a Delaware corporations rights to engage in a business
combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder unless the business combination is approved in the manner prescribed under Delaware law.

Material Contracts

The following summarizes each material contract, other than contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business, to which Deswell or any subsidiary of Deswell is a party for the two years
immediately preceding the filing of this report.

On August 5, 2009, Deswell entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement
with a third party to sell real property Deswell owns in Shekou, Shenzhen, China that it formerly used for its plastic injection molding operations for RMB 50,000,000 (approximately $7.3 million, based on an exchange rate of 1:6.8309 on
August 5, 2009 as reported on http://forex-history.net). The sale closed on September 30, 2009 after required local government transfer and other approvals have been obtained. An English summary of the Sale and Purchase Agreement is
incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.4 to this Report.

Taxation

##### Table of Contents

General

This section is a general summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders, as defined below, of the ownership and disposition of our common shares as of the date of
this report. This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, the applicable Treasury regulations promulgated and proposed thereunder, judicial decisions and current administrative rulings and
practice, all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. The summary applies to you only if you hold our common shares as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. In addition, this summary generally
addresses certain U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders if we were to be classified as a PFIC. The United States Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, may challenge the tax consequences described below, and we have not requested, nor
will we request, a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of counsel with respect to the United States federal income tax consequences of acquiring, holding or disposing of our common shares. This summary does not purport to be a comprehensive
description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant to the ownership of our common shares. In particular, the discussion below does not cover tax consequences that depend upon your particular tax circumstances nor does it cover any state,
local or foreign law, or the possible application of the United States federal estate or gift tax. You are urged to consult your own tax advisors regarding the application of the United States federal income tax laws to your particular situation as
well as any state, local, foreign and United States federal estate and gift tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the common shares. In addition, this summary does not take into account any special United States federal income tax
rules that apply to a particular U.S. or Non-U.S. holder of our common shares, including, without limitation, the following:



| |  |  | a dealer in securities or currencies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | a trader in securities that elects to use a market-to-market method of accounting for its securities holdings;

U.S. Holders

For
purposes of the discussion below, you are a U.S. Holder if you are a beneficial owner of our common shares who or which is:



| |  |  | an individual United States citizen or resident alien of the United States (as specifically defined for United States federal income tax purposes);
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a corporation, or other entity treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the

to be treated as a United States person.
| | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If a partnership holds our common shares, the tax treatment of a
partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding our common shares, you should consult your tax advisor.

Distributions

Subject to the passive foreign investment company (PFIC) rules discussed below, for cash dividends, the gross amount of any such distribution (other than in liquidation) that you
receive with respect to our common shares generally will be taxed to you as dividend income to the extent such distribution does not exceed our current or accumulated earnings and profits (E&P), as calculated for U.S. federal income
tax purposes. Such income will be includable in your gross income as ordinary income on the date of receipt. Dividends received by individuals and certain other non-corporate taxpayers from qualified foreign corporations before 2013
generally are taxed at reduced rates as compared to ordinary income, provided that the recipient-shareholder has held his or her shares as a beneficial owner for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning on the date which is 60 days
before the shares ex-dividend date and certain other conditions are met. Under current law, dividends received in tax years beginning after December 31, 2012 will be taxed at higher ordinary income tax rates. In addition, recent
legislation will impose, beginning in 2013, a new 3.8% Medicare contribution tax on net investment income, including interest, dividends and capital gains, of U.S. individuals with income exceeding $200,000 (or $250,000 if married filing jointly),
estates and trusts. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of such tax on their ownership and disposition of our shares.

A foreign corporation is a qualified foreign corporation if the stock with respect to which it pays dividends is traded on an established securities market in the United States, provided that
the foreign corporation is not a PFIC. Our stock is traded on an established securities market in the United States, although we cannot guarantee that our stock will be so traded in the future. We believe that we were not a PFIC for U.S. federal
income purposes for our fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, and that it is unlikely that we were a PFIC for our fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. No assurance can be given, however, that the IRS may not disagree and seek to treat us as a
PFIC. See Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) below. If we are a PFIC with respect to a particular U.S. Holder, dividends received from us will be taxed at regular ordinary income tax rates. Holders of our shares should consult
their own tax advisers regarding the availability of the reduced dividend tax rate in light of their own particular circumstances.

To the extent any distribution exceeds our E&P, the distribution will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of your adjusted tax basis in our common shares and will be applied
against and reduce such basis on a dollar-for-dollar basis (thereby increasing the amount of gain and decreasing the amount of loss recognized on a subsequent disposition of such shares). To the extent that such distribution exceeds your adjusted
tax basis, the distribution will be taxed as gain recognized on a sale or exchange of our common shares. See Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Our Common Shares, below. Because we are not a U.S. corporation, no dividends-received
deduction will be allowed to corporations with respect to dividends paid by us.

For United States foreign tax credit
limitation purposes, dividends received on our common shares will be treated as foreign source income and will generally be passive category income, or in the case of certain holders, general category income. You may be
eligible, subject to a number of complex limitations, to claim a foreign tax credit in respect of foreign withholding taxes, if any, imposed on dividends paid on our common shares. The rules governing United States foreign tax credits are complex,
and we recommend that you consult your tax advisor regarding the applicability of such rules to you.

Sale, Exchange or
Other Disposition of Our Common Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, generally, in connection with the sale,
exchange or other taxable disposition of our common shares:



| |  |  | you will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference (if any) between:
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the amount realized on such sale, exchange or other taxable disposition and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | your adjusted tax basis in such common shares (your adjusted tax basis in the shares you hold generally will equal your U.S. dollar cost of such
shares);
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | such gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if your holding period for our common shares is more than one year at the time of such sale or
other disposition;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | such gain or loss will generally be treated as United States source for United States foreign tax credit purposes; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | your ability to deduct capital losses is subject to limitations.

Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC)

A U.S. Holder generally would be subject to a special tax regime (that differs in certain material respects from that described above) if we were a PFIC at any time during which such Holder held our
shares.

A foreign corporation will be treated as a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes if, after applying
relevant look-through rules with respect to the income and assets of subsidiaries, 75% or more of its gross income consists of certain types of passive income (the income test) or 50% or more of the gross value of its assets is
attributable to assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income (the asset test). For this purpose, passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents (other than rents and
royalties derived in the active conduct of a trade or business), annuities and gains from assets that produce passive income.

An actual determination of PFIC status is factual in nature and cannot be made until the close of the applicable tax year. If we based
our PFIC determination on the average ratio of our passive assets to our market cap plus our current liabilities (Market Cap Value) at the end of each quarter (Testing Quarter) of our fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, we
would be a PFIC. However, because the fair market value of only the land rights used in our active business, inventory and receivables ( Partial Active Asset Value) together with our passive assets, exceeds our Market Cap Value on each
Testing Quarter, we do not believe that our Market Cap Value accurately reflects the value of our active assets. We believe that our Partial Active Asset Value is a better indication of the value of those assets and, since such value exceeds the
value of our passive assets, we believe that we are not a PFIC for our fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 based on the asset test. We have not conducted an appraisal of the actual fair market value of all of our assets to support our
conclusion regarding our PFIC status based on the asset test, however, we did engage a qualified third party to conduct an appraisal of our land rights. Nonetheless, since a taxpayers appraisal does not bind the IRS, and the latter
may disagree with our approach in general, no assurances can be given that the IRS will not successfully challenge our determination as to the PFIC status based on the asset test and will not seek to treat us as a PFIC. With regard to
the income test, as a foreign private issuer with no U.S. source income, we do not prepare or file income tax returns with the United States Internal Revenue Service. Accordingly we do not make, or engage advisers to advise us regarding,
adjustments to our gross income, expenses and other results of operations, which we prepare under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for financial reporting purposes, that would be necessary to prepare and file income tax
returns reflecting our gross income, expenses and other results of operations under tax principles of the United States. However, we believe that if we made such adjustments to our operating results for the year ended March 31, 2011, it is
highly likely that our gross income determined under United States tax principles would be sufficient to satisfy the PFIC income test, and on that basis we believe it is unlikely that we were a PFIC under that test. However, no assurance can be
given that our gross income determined under US tax principles would in fact be sufficient to satisfy the PFIC income test or that, in any event, the IRS might not disagree and seek to treat us as a PFIC.

As a result of the classification as a PFIC, a special tax regime would apply to both (a) any excess distribution by us
(generally, the U.S. Holders ratable share of distributions in any year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such U.S. Holder in the three preceding years or its holding period, if shorter) and
(b) any gain recognized on the sale or other disposition of your ordinary shares. Under the PFIC regime, any excess distribution and recognized gain would be treated as ordinary income. The U.S. federal income tax on such ordinary income is
determined under the following steps: (i) the amount of the excess distribution or gain is allocated ratably over the US Holders holding period for our ordinary shares; (ii) tax is determined for amounts allocated to the first year
in the holding period in which we were classified as a PFIC and all subsequent years (except the year in which the excess distribution was received or the sale occurred) by applying the highest applicable tax rate in effect in the year to which the
income was allocated; (iii) an interest charge is added to this tax calculated by applying the underpayment interest rate to the tax for each year determined under the preceding sentence from the due date of the income tax return for such year
to the due date of the return for the year in which the excess distribution or sale occurs; and (iv) amounts allocated to a year prior to the first year in the U.S. Holders holding period in which we were classified as a PFIC or to the
year in which the excess distribution or the



53



---

##### Table of Contents

disposition occurred are taxed as ordinary income and no interest charge applies. The interest charge is non-deductible by individuals but is generally deductible by corporations

If we were treated as a PFIC, a U.S. Holder of our shares would generally be subject to the PFIC rules described above with respect to
distributions by us, and dispositions by us of the stock of, any direct or indirect subsidiaries of ours that are classified as PFICS under either the asset test or the income test, as if such holder received directly its
pro-rata share of the proceeds from such disposition.

A U.S. Holder may generally avoid the PFIC regime by making a
qualified electing fund election which generally provides that, in lieu of the foregoing treatment, our earnings, on a pro rata basis, would be currently included in their gross income. However, we may be unable or unwilling to provide
information to our U.S. Holders that would enable them to make a qualified electing fund election; thus, such election may not be available.

In addition, U.S. Holders may generally avoid the PFIC regime by making the mark-to-market election with respect to our common shares as long as we are a PFIC and our common shares are
considered to be readily tradable on an established securities market within the United States. Marking-to-market, in this context, means including in ordinary income each taxable year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of our
common shares over your tax adjusted basis in such common shares as of the end of each year. This mark-to-market election generally enables a U.S. Holder to avoid the deferred interest charge that would otherwise be imposed on them if we
were to be classified as a PFIC. However, if we were a PFIC, such election would not be available for any of our subsidiaries that also may be classified as PFICs, and those subsidiaries would continue to be subject to the PFIC rules described
above.

If we are treated as a PFIC at any time that you hold our shares but cease to be classified as a PFIC in a later year,
we will continue to be classified as a PFIC with respect to you unless you make a deemed sale election in a timely manner to be taxed as if you sold your shares on the last day of our last year during which we were treated as a PFIC. In this case,
you would pay tax on the gain on the deemed sale treated as ordinary income and an interest charge, and no loss will be allowed to you. A timely deemed sale election can also be made with respect to our subsidiaries that are treated as PFICs, in
which case you will be taxed on the amount of gain treated as ordinary income and pay an interest charge as if the stock of such subsidiaries had been actually sold or disposed of by us while we were a PFIC and you held our shares. If we
subsequently become a PFIC, you will again be subject to the general PFIC rules discussed herein. We do not expect to monitor our status (or the status of any of our subsidiaries) as a PFIC for the current taxable year or in any future taxable year
and, therefore, we may not be able to inform you as whether we have become a PFIC in any given year or whether we have subsequently ceased to be a PFIC.

If we were treated as a PFIC, each U.S. Holder would be required to make an annual return on IRS Form 8621 or its successor, reporting, among other things, distributions received and gain realized with
respect to each PFIC in which such holder holds a direct or indirect interest, and may be required to provide other information as specified by the IRS. In this regard, we note, in particular, that under recently enacted legislation U.S. Holders may
be subject to further reporting requirements (on IRS Form 8938 or its successor) in connection with the annual filing of their respective U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to shareholdings in foreign corporations, which may include
affirming whether or not a foreign corporation in which such U.S. Holder has invested is (or is not) a PFIC irrespective of whether any distributions have been received, the U.S. Holder has disposed of any stock of the foreign corporation, or the
foreign corporation has disposed of any stock of its foreign subsidiaries in the relevant taxable year.

An actual
determination of PFIC status is highly factual in nature. Given the complexity of the issues that may result if we are classified as or become a PFIC, you are urged to consult your own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences to you,
including any reporting obligations that may be imposed on you, in the event that this should occur, in view of your particular circumstances.

Non-U.S. Holders

If
you are not a U.S. Holder, you are a Non-U.S. Holder.

Distributions on Our Common Shares

You generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, including withholding tax, on distributions made on our common shares
unless:



| |  |  | you conduct a trade or business in the United States and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



54



---

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | the distributions are effectively connected with the conduct of that trade or business (and, if an applicable income tax treaty so requires as a
condition for you to be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis in respect of income from our common shares, such distributions are attributable to a permanent establishment that you maintain in the United States).
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you meet the two tests above, you generally will be subject to tax in respect of such dividends in the
same manner as a U.S. Holder, as described above. In addition, any effectively connected dividends received by a non-U.S. corporation may also, under certain circumstances, be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a 30 percent
rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Our
Common Shares

Generally, you will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, including withholding tax, in respect of
gain recognized on a sale or other taxable disposition of our common shares unless:



| |  |  | your gain is effectively connected with a trade or business that you conduct in the United States (and, if an applicable income tax treaty so requires
as a condition for you to be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis in respect of gain from the sale or other disposition of our common shares, such gain is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by you in the United
States), or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | you are an individual Non-U.S. Holder and are present in the United States for at least 183 days in the taxable year of the sale or other disposition,
and certain other conditions exist.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You will be subject to tax in respect of any gain effectively connected
with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States generally in the same manner as a U.S. Holder, as described above. Effectively connected gains realized by a non-U.S. corporation may also, under certain circumstances, be subject to an
additional branch profits tax at a rate of 30 percent or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Payments, including
dividends and proceeds of sales, in respect of our common shares that are made in the United States or by a United States related financial intermediary will be subject to United States information reporting rules. In addition, such payments may be
subject to United States federal backup withholding tax. You will not be subject to backup withholding provided that:



| |  |  | you are a corporation or other exempt recipient, or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | you provide your correct United States federal taxpayer identification number and certify, under penalties of perjury, that you are not subject to
backup withholding.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be credited against your United
States federal income tax, and you may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by filing the appropriate claim for refund with the IRS in a timely manner.

British Virgin Islands Tax Consequences

Under the International Business Companies Act of the British Virgin Islands as currently in effect, a holder of common equity, such as our common shares, who is not a resident of the British Virgin
Islands is exempt from British Virgin Islands income tax on dividends paid with respect to the common equity and all holders of common equity are not liable to the British Virgin Islands for income tax on gains realized on sale or disposal of such
shares: The British Virgin Islands does not impose a withholding tax on dividends paid by a company incorporated under the International Business Companies Act.

There are no capital gains, gift or inheritance taxes levied by the British Virgin Islands on companies incorporated under the International Business Companies Act. In addition, our common shares are not
subject to transfer taxes, stamp duties or similar charges. There is no income tax treaty or convention currently in effect between the United States and the British Virgin Islands.

ITEM11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE
DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Exchange Controls

There are no exchange control restrictions on payments of dividends on the Companys common shares or on the conduct of the Companys operations either in Macao, where the Companys
principal executive offices are located, or the British Virgin Islands, where the Company is incorporated. Other jurisdictions in which the Company conducts operations may have various exchange controls. There are no material British Virgin
Islands laws which impose foreign exchange controls on the Company or that affect the payment of dividends, interest or other payments to nonresident holders of the Companys common shares. British Virgin Islands law and the
Companys Memorandum and Articles of Association impose no limitations on the right of nonresident or foreign owners to hold the Companys Securities or vote the Companys common shares.

To the extent that the Company may decide to pay cash dividends in the future, such dividends will be declared from the retained
earnings, i.e., surplus, as determined by resolution of the directors of the Company. As the Company is a holding company, the amount of its retained earnings will be limited by the amount of dividends that can be declared by its subsidiaries.
Dividends declared by subsidiaries will be based on the profits reported in their statutory accounts prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the relevant countries, primarily Macao and China, which differ from U.S.
GAAP. See Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Chinas laws and regulations regulate dividend distribution and repatriation by the Companys China subsidiaries. To date these controls, with the exception of a requirement
that 10% of profits to be reserved for future developments and staff welfare, have not had and are not expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial results.

Foreign Currency Risk

ITEM15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Companys management, with
the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2011.

Based on this evaluation, the Companys management,
including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2011 such disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the
Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and include controls and procedures
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Deswells management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide
only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative
to their costs. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential
future conditions; over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system,
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

##### Table of Contents

A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists, as defined under Standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigns functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A
significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the
companys financial reporting.

Deswells management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2011. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (COSO) in Internal Control Integrated Framework.

Based on the assessment, Deswells management,
including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of March 31, 2011, the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective based on above described criteria.

Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm

The effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2011 has been audited by BDO Limited, an independent registered public accounting firm with a report
to the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Deswell Industries, Inc., which is set forth on the following page.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

Deswell Industries, Inc.

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of
Deswell Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (the COSO criteria). The Companys management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in
the accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial
reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered
necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A companys internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the
inherent limitation, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Deswell
Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2011, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Deswell Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries as
of March 31, 2010 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), shareholders equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2011 and our report dated
August 2, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

Deswell Industries, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Deswell Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 31, 2010 and 2011, and the related consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), shareholders equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our
audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of Deswell Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2010 and 2011, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2011, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance
with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Deswell Industries, Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control 

DESWELL INDUSTRIES, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(U.S. dollars in thousands, except per share data)





1.
Organization and Basis of Financial Statements

Deswell Industries, Inc. was incorporated in the British
Virgin Islands on December 2, 1993.

The principal activities of the Company comprise the manufacture and
sale of injection-molded plastic parts and components, electronic products assembling and metallic parts manufacturing. The manufacturing activities are subcontracted to subsidiaries operating in Mainland China. The selling and administrative
activities were originally performed in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (Hong Kong) of the Peoples Republic of China (China). From August 2003, these activities were moved to the Macao Special Administrative
Region (Macao) of China.

As the Company is a holding company, the amount of any dividends to be
declared by the Company will be dependent upon the amount which can be distributed from its subsidiaries. Dividends from subsidiaries are declared based on profits as reported in their statutory accounts. Such profits differ from the amounts
reported under U.S. GAAP. At March 31, 2011, the retained earnings available for distribution as reflected in the statutory books of the subsidiaries were $56,325.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of consolidation - The consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America, include the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of all subsidiaries. Intercompany balances, transactions and cash flows are eliminated on consolidation.

Goodwill - The excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired is recorded on the balance sheet
as goodwill. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, which requires the carrying value of goodwill to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or more
frequently if impairment indicators arise. The Company regularly conducted annual impairment evaluation. The impairment test requires to estimate the fair value of our reporting units. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair
value, the goodwill of that reporting unit is potentially impaired and the Company proceeds to step two of the impairment analysis. In step two of the analysis, The Company measures and records an impairment loss equal to the excess of the carrying
value of the reporting units goodwill over its implied fair value should such a circumstance arise.

Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash accounts, interest bearing
savings accounts and time certificates of deposit with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.

Marketable securities -All marketable securities are classified as trading securities and are stated at fair
market value. Market value is determined by the most recently traded price of the security at the balance sheet date. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are included in non-operating income. The cost of investments
sold is based on the average cost method and interest earned is included in non-operating income.

Inventories  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined on the weighted
average basis. Work-in-progress and finished goods inventories consist of raw materials, direct labour and overhead associated with the manufacturing process. The Company periodically performs an analysis of inventory to determine obsolete or
slow-moving inventory and determine if its cost exceeds market value. Write down of potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory are recorded based on managements analysis of inventory levels.

Property, plant and equipment - Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost including the cost of
improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

|Leasehold improvements            |  | 2 - 5years    |  |  |  | 

Leases - Leases are classified at the inception date as either a capital lease or
an operating lease. For the lessee, a lease is a capital lease if any of the following conditions exist: a) ownership is transferred to the lessee by the end of the lease term, b) there is a bargain purchase option, c) the lease term is at least 75%
of the propertys estimated remaining economic life or d) the present value of the minimum lease payments at the beginning of the lease term is 90% or more of the fair value of the leased property to the lessor at the inception date. A capital
lease is accounted for as if there was an acquisition of an asset and an incurrence of an obligation at the inception of the lease. All other leases are accounted for as operating leases. The Company has no capital leases for any of the periods
presented.

Impairment of long-lived assets-Long-lived assets are included in impairment
evaluations when events and circumstances exist that indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. In accordance with FASB ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment, the Company assesses the recoverability of the
carrying value of long-lived assets by first grouping its long-lived assets with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities (the asset
group) and, secondly, estimating the undiscounted future cash flows that are directly associated with and expected to arise from the use of and eventual disposition of such asset group. The Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows over the
remaining useful life of the primary asset within the asset group. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge to the extent the carrying value of the long-lived
asset exceeds its fair value. The Company determines fair value through quoted market prices in active markets or, if quotations of market prices are unavailable, through the performance of internal analysis using a discounted cash flow methodology.
The undiscounted and discounted cash flow analyses based on a number of estimates and assumptions, including the expected period over which the asset will be utilized, projected future operating results of the asset group, discount rate and
long-term growth rate.

In evaluation of undiscounted projected cash-flows associated with those assets, the
Company assessed that long-lived assets at March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011 to be less than the fair value and the sum of undiscounted cash flows. Accordingly, the Company impaired that the carrying values of long-lived assets of $176, $8 and
$4,474, respectively.

Revenue recognition - Sales of goods are recognized when goods are shipped,
title of goods sold has passed to the purchaser, the price is fixed or determinable as stated on the sales contract, and its collectability is reasonably assured. Customers do not have a general right of return on products shipped. The Company
permits the return of damaged or defective products and accounts for these actual returns as deduction from sales. Products returns to the Company were insignificant during past years.

Comprehensive income - Other comprehensive income for the years ended March 31, 2009 represented foreign
currency translation adjustments and were included in the consolidated statement of operations.

Allowance
for doubtful account - The Company regularly monitors and assesses the risk of not collecting amounts owed to the Company by customers. This evaluation is based upon a variety of factors including: ongoing credit evaluations of its
customers financial condition, an analysis of amounts current and past due along with relevant history and facts particular to the customer. Based upon the results of this analysis, the Company records an allowance for uncollectible accounts
for this risk. This analysis requires the Company to make significant estimates, and changes in facts and circumstances could result in material changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts. Unanticipated changes in the liquidity or financial
position of the Companys customers may require additional provisions for doubtful accounts.

Shipping
and handling cost- Shipping and handling costs related to the delivery of finished goods are included in selling expenses. During the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, shipping and handling costs expensed to selling expenses were
$1,714, $985 and $863, respectively.

Income taxes - Income taxes are provided on an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting
of income taxes. Any China tax paid by subsidiaries during the year is recorded. Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences at enacted rates and classified as current or non-current based upon the classification
of the related asset or liability in the financial statements. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all, the deferred tax asset will not be
realized. The Company classifies interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as a component of income tax provisions.

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC No. 740 Income Taxes (ASC 740), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized by prescribing a
recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides accounting guidance on de-recognition, classification,
interest and penalties, disclosure and transition.

Foreign currency translation - The consolidated
financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars as the Company is incorporated in the British Virgin Islands where the currency is the U.S. dollar. The Companys subsidiaries conduct substantially all of their business in Hong
Kong dollars, Chinese renminbi or U.S. dollars. The exchange rates between the Hong Kong dollars and the U.S. dollar were approximately 7.7597, 7.7597 and 7.7965 as of March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. The exchange rates between the
Chinese renminbi and the U.S. dollar were approximately 6.8417, 6.8417 and 6.583 as of March 31, 2009, 2010, and 2011, respectively.

All transactions in currencies other than functional currencies during the year are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary items existing at the balance sheet date
denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies are translated at period end rates. Gains and losses resulting from the translation of foreign currency transactions and balances are included in the consolidated statement of
operations.

Aggregate net foreign currency transaction gain (loss) included in other income were $704, $(43) and $(372) for
the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively.

Prior to January 1, 2009, the
functional currencies of our subsidiaries were Hong Kong dollars and Chinese renminbi. Effective January 1, 2009, the functional currencies of all our subsidiaries were changed to U.S. dollars. The U.S. dollar is considered by management to be
the most appropriate functional currency of Deswells subsidiaries because over the years, and especially in our year ended March 31, 2009, most of our customers contracted with our subsidiaries in U.S. dollars.

During the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, 72.4%, 62.7% and 55.1% of our sales of plastic products were
denominated in U.S. dollars, respectively. During the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, 95%, 95% and 99.8%, respectively, of sales of products in our electronics segment were denominated in U.S. dollars.

Primarily because of the stability of the exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar, which has
existed since the Hong Kong government pegged the exchange rate at HK$7.80 to US$1.00 in 1983, and, to a lesser degree, because steady appreciation of the Chinese Renminbi to the U.S. dollar, beginning around July 1, 2008, and the relative
stability in the exchange rate of the Chinese Renminbi to the U.S. dollar since then, the actual effect of the change in the functional currency to the U.S. dollar was immaterial to the Companys results of operations, liquidity and cash flows
for the years ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010.

Irrespective of our functional currency,
however, if the exchange rate of the Chinese Renminbi to U.S. dollar again becomes volatile, our results of operations would be affected, positively or negatively, depending on the amounts of expenses our subsidiaries pay in Chinese Renminbi and
whether the Chinese Renminbi depreciates or appreciates to the U.S. dollar. The exchange rate of the RMB resumed significant appreciation to the US dollar beginning in June 2010 when Chinas central bank announced that it planned to introduce
more flexibility in the management of Chinas currency and appreciated approximately 4.1% at March 31, 2011 from the exchange rate at March 31, 2010. Accordingly, the Companys operating expenses increased, and the Companys
results of operations were negatively impacted, by the appreciation of the RMB to US dollar during the year ended March 31, 2011. If the RMB continues appreciating to the U.S. dollar, our operating costs would continue to increase and our
financial results would be adversely affected.

Post-retirement and post-employment benefits - The Company and its subsidiaries contribute to a state pension
scheme in respect of its Chinese employees.

Stock-based compensation - The Company adopts ASC
No. 718, Compensation  Stock Compensation, which requires that share-based payment transactions with employees, such as share options, be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instrument issued and
recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period, with a corresponding addition to equity. Under this method, compensation cost related to employee share options or similar equity instruments is measured at the grant date based
on the fair value of the award and is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period.

For the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, the Company records stock-based compensation expenses amounted to
$62, $125 and $nil in the statement of operations respectively. There is no tax benefit recognized in relation to the stock-based compensation expenses incurred for the three years.

The fair value of options granted in the years ended March 31, 2009 and 2010 were estimated using the Binomial
option pricing model with the following assumptions:



|                                            |  |      |          |  |      |  |          | 
|------------------------------------------- |  | ---- | -------- |  | ---- |  | -------- | 
|                                            |  | 2009 |          |  | 2010 | 
|                                            |  |     
|Risk-free interest rate  weighted average  |  |      | 2.90%    |  |      |  | 2.88%    | 
|Expected life of options  weighted average |  |      | 10 years |  |      |  | 10 years | 
|Stock volatility                            |  |      | 40.49%   |  |      |  | 47.08%   | 
|Expected dividend yield                     |  |      | 7.35%    |  |      |  | 6.61%    | 

The Company applied judgment in estimating key assumptions in determining the fair value
of the stock options on the date of grant. The Company used historical data to estimate the expected life of options, stock volatility and expected dividend yield. The risk-free interest rate of the option was based on the 10 years U.S. Treasury
yield at time of grant.

Net income per share - Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net
income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted
average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. In computing the dilutive effect of potential common
shares, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of treasury shares assumed to be purchased with the proceeds from the exercise of options.

Basic net income per share and diluted net income per share calculated in accordance with ASC No. 260,
Earnings Per Share, are reconciled as follows (shares in thousands):

19,000 shares related to stock options are excluded from the calculations of diluted net income per share for the year
ended March 31, 2011 because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Use of estimates -The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair
value of financial instruments The fair value of a financial instrument is defined as the exchange price that would be received from an asset or paid to transfer a liability (as exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for
the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets,
accounts payable, and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments and market rates of interest.

Fair Value Measurements - The Company has adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information.

Its establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy of valuation techniques based on observable and
unobservable inputs, which may be used to measure fair value and include the following:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or
indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or
liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the
fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the
lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Recent changes in accounting
standards In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures and clarifies existing
disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Codification Subtopic 820-10. ASU 2010-06 amends Codification Subtopic 820-10 to now require that (1) a reporting entity must disclose separately the amounts of significant
transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; (2) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present
separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements and (3) a reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value
measurements. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair
value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-06 on the Companys
financial position, results of operations and cash flows, but does not expect it to have a material impact.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment
Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades. It addresses the classification of a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying equity
security trades. FASB ASC Topic 718, CompensationStock Compensation, was amended to clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the
entitys equity securities trade shall not be considered to contain a market, performance or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies for equity classification. The amendments
will be effective for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with early application permitted. The Company evaluated the effect of ASU 2010-13 on its financial statements
and has concluded that it would have no impact on its financial positions, results of operation and cash flows.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, When to Perform
Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. This ASU amends guidance for Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those
reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15,
2010, with early adoption not permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2010-28 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value
Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This pronouncement is an authoritative guidance to amend certain measurement and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements to improve consistency with
international reporting standards. This guidance is effective prospectively for public entities for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption by public entities prohibited, and is applicable to
the Companys fiscal quarter beginning April 1, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance, but does not expect its adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05 Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) Presentation of Comprehensive
Income. This pronouncement is an authoritative guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income that will require a company to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate,
but consecutive statements. There are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current GAAP. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. It is applicable to the Companys fiscal year beginning October 1, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance, but does not expect its adoption will have a
material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Under the current BVI law, the Companys income is not subject to taxation.
Subsidiaries operating in Hong Kong and China are subject to income taxes as described below, and the subsidiaries operating in Macao are exempted from income taxes. Under the current Samoa Law, subsidiaries incorporated in Samoa are not subject to
profit tax as they have no business operations in Samoa.

The provision for current income taxes of the
subsidiaries operating in Hong Kong has been calculated by applying the current rate of taxation of 16.5% (2009:16.5%, 2010:16.5%) to the estimated taxable income arising in or derived from Hong Kong, if applicable.

Prior to January 1, 2008, enterprise income tax in China was generally charged at 33%, in which 30% is for national
tax and 3% is for local tax, of the assessable profit. For foreign investment enterprises established in a Special Economic Zone or Coastal Open Economic Zone, where the subsidiaries of the Company are located, and which are engaged in
production-oriented activities, the national tax rate could be reduced to 15% and 24% respectively. The Companys subsidiaries incorporated in China are subject to China income taxes at the applicable tax rates on the taxable income as reported
in their Chinese statutory accounts in accordance with the relevant income tax laws applicable to foreign enterprises. Pursuant to the PRC income tax laws, the subsidiaries are fully exempted from China income tax for two years starting from the
first profit-making year, followed by a 50% tax exemption for the next three years.

From January 1,
2008, with the effect of the new PRC Income Tax Law, the standard income tax rate for all companies has been reduced from the rate of 33% to 25%.

Jetcrown Industrial Shenzhen Limited (JISL), a fully owned subsidiary deregistered on March 24, 2010, had fully enjoyed the above tax holiday and concessions by December 31, 1995.
Under the new Income Tax Law, the tax rate applicable to JISL is 18% and 20% for the calendar years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009, respectively.

Dongguan Kwan Hong Electronics Company Limited (DKHE) (a subsidiary of the Company) had fully enjoyed the tax holiday and concessions by December 31, 2004. The applicable tax rate of DKHE
for the calendar years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010 is 25%.

9. Income Taxes  continued



In September 2007, Jetcrown Industrial (Dongguan) Limited
(JIDL) (a subsidiary of the Company) had revised its first and second tax exemption year from the calendar year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 respectively, to the calendar years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003 respectively.
The revision was upon a tax reassessment by the PRC tax authorities during the year ended March 31, 2007 regarding the commencement year of exemption and inter-company sales pricing issues. The tax rate applicable for JIDL for calendar years
2002 to 2006 was 24%. JIDL was entitled to a full tax exemption for each of the calendar years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003 and a 50% exemption for each of the calendar years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006. An aggregate amount
of $450 additional income tax provision, which comprised approximately $154, $92, $166 and $38 for taxable calendar years 2004, 2005 and 2006 and the quarter ended March 31, 2007 respectively had been charged to the consolidation income
statement for the year ended March 31, 2007. The assessment and payment for income taxes for calendar years 2004 and 2005 were settled and concluded in September 2007 at the amount as provided. The assessment and payment for calendar year 2006
were settled at $101 in January 2008. However, there can be no assurance that the PRC tax authorities will not, in the future, further challenge (i) the reported revenue of JIDL for periods starting from the calendar year ended 31 December
2006; and (ii) revenues reported by JIDL for value-added tax filing purpose. There can also be no assurance that similar reassessments will not be extended to other PRC subsidiaries of the Company. The above reassessments, if conducted in the
future, may cause an adverse impact to the net operating results of the Company.

For the calendar year ended
December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, the tax rate for JIDL is 25%.

Under applicable PRC tax laws and
regulations, arrangements and transactions among related parties may be subject to audit or scrutiny by the PRC tax authorities within ten years after the taxable year when the arrangements or transactions are conducted. The Company is subject to
the applicable transfer pricing rules in PRC in connection to the transactions between its subsidiaries located inside and outside PRC. In accordance to Guo Shui Fa [2009] No.2 Implementation Regulations of Special Tax Adjustments
(Provisional)(Guo Shui Fa [2009] No.2), which took effect beginning in calendar year 2008 and set out the regulations in relation to transfer pricing, contemporaneous documentation, disclosure and compliance of intercompany
transactions, the Company and external consultants have prepared transfer pricing contemporaneous documentations (the Contemporaneous Documentations) of DKHE and JIDL for the calendar years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009.

In accordance with Guo Shui Fa [2009] No.2, the PRC tax authorities have the right to deem the Company for a
tax amount based on the Contemporaneous Documentations or a basis that they considered reasonable.

The amount
of current tax represents the estimated deemed profit tax imposed on the Company by the PRC tax authorities for the calendar years ended December 31, 2008, 2009, 2010 and three months period ended March 31, 2011. The amounts have been
estimated based on the Contemporaneous Documentations.

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 740 on
April 1, 2007. The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with ASC 740 begins with a determination as to whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the
position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is then measured at the largest amount of benefit that if greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement for recognition in the financial
statements. There is no material impact on the adoption of ASC 740. The Company classifies interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax provisions; however, as of March 31, 2011, there is no
interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

The provision for income taxes consists of the
following:

Country risk - The Company has significant investments
in China. The operating results of the Company may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in China, and by changes in Chinese government policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures,
currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods taxation, among other things. There can be no assurance, however, those changes in political and other conditions will not result in any adverse impact.

14. Segment Information

The Company has three reportable segments: plastic injection molding, electronic products assembling and metallic parts manufacturing. The Companys reportable segments are strategic business units
that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each business requires different technology and marketing strategies. Most of the businesses were acquired as a unit, and the management at the time of the acquisition
was retained.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of
significant accounting policies. The Company accounts for intersegment sales and transfers as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, that is, at current market prices.
