II. The Company’s Development Strategies and Future Prospects

1. The Company’s Development Strategies

In terms of Job Bank, we will continue to add new users and deepen service to enhance user loyalty in order to increase job seeking and recruitment market share and expand the external network. The Company will leverage our advantages in active user scale to develop product applications based on user’s profile, behavior and interaction data. The Company will continue to enhance the job/talent seeking bilateral recommendation, smart sorting and suitability matching service in professional and personality. By establishing a competitive and quantitative competition and implementing the usercentric design concept, we will continue to enhance product usability and bring our users better experience.

Due to China-US trade war, Taiwanese entrepreneurs are expected to accelerate the global presence. The head hunting team will be more focused on the recruitment of expatriate executives, extending business in the mainland China. The Company will recruit head hunters in Shanghai to provide head hunting service to Taiwanese and local entrepreneurs, and duplicate successful experiences to the China market. Head hunters’ efficiency and performance will be enhanced by updating head hunter platform, providing more accurate and convenient hunting function and case management system. The Company will also develop consulting robots to gain competitive advantages in head hunting area.

There are two HR managing development strategies in 2019. First, multiple modules data connection increase the convenience of employee management. For example, HR module integrates employee evaluations; salary module integrates employees’ salary survey, etc. Secondly, data integration. Due to data distributed in different modules, there’s a difficulty to analyze and integrate them. The Company will develop decision center module, help administrators contain a whole picture of HR statement, and provide administration advices through HR big data analysis.

In 2019, the development of the Senior Care Bank industry will be focused on six major aspects: The Company will complete diversified market demand tests for the Coach Caregivers’ services, enhance the consumer loyalty to professional help center, and increase brand awareness of Senior Care Bank.

Attachment 3: Independent Auditors’ Report and Financial Statements

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of 104 Corporation:

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of 104 Corporation ("the Company"), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the "Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants" and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China ("the Code"), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements taken as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Based on our judgement, the key audit matters that should be communicated in this audit report are as follows:

Revenue recognition

Please refer to note 4(12) for accounting policy related to revenue recognition, and note 6(13) for the disclosure related to revenue from contracts with customers of the financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The Company’s operating revenues is the main indicator for investors and management to assess their financial or business performance. Since the Company is a listed company, it has a high risk of false representation. Furthermore, in 2018, the Company is required to adopt the International Financial Reporting Standard No. 15 for the first time, wherein its recognition of revenue and its judgment of the timing of the transfer of commodity control rights are extremely important for the expression of its financial statements. The Company’s operating revenues mainly derive from providing online advertising and consulting services, wherein they are recognized in the following different ways. Additionally, the Company often received its payments in advance after the contracts are signed; therefore, the amount is deferred according to the Company’s policy and recognized as revenue once the service is performed. The aforementioned matter is the basis for the Company’s management to determine the amount of revenue that can be recognized, therefore, revenue recognition was considered to be one of the key audit matters in our audit.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our audit procedures included:

  • ‧ Assessing and testing the design, as well as the effectiveness of the operating on the control over sales and collection cycle. Selecting appropriate samples and comparing them to relevant documents such as customer order and confirmation of completion order signed by customer to assess whether revenue and deferred revenue have been appropriately recognized.

  • ‧ Performing comparison analysis on operating revenue of the current period to last period and the latest quarter to assess the existence of any significant exceptions, and further identify and analyze the reasons, if there is any significant exception.

  • ‧ Performing test-of-detail on operating revenue to assess the assertions of existence and accuracy, as well as the appropriateness of recognition.

  • ‧ Examining relevant documents of a period before and after the balance sheets date, such as customer order, information reported back from business department, or confirmation of completion of duty executed by customer, and verify the accuracy of the amount recognized as revenue in accordance with the timing of service provided or quantity provided to determine whether the deferred revenue should not be recognized as revenue and whether operating revenue has been appropriately recognized.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investments in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on the financial statements.

Independent Auditors' Report

To the Board of Directors of 104 Corporation:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of 104 Corporation and Subsidiaries ("the Consolidated Company"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Consolidated Company as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs"), International Accounting Standards ("IASs"), interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the "Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants" and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Consolidated Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China ("the Code"), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Based on our judgement, the key audit matters that should be communicated in this audit report are as follows:

Revenue recognition

Please refer to note 4(12) for accounting policy related to revenue recognition, and note 6(13) for the disclosure related to revenue from contracts with customers of the consolidated financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The Consolidated Company's operating revenues is the main indicator for investors and management to assess their financial or business performance. Since 104 Corporation is a listed company, it has a high risk of false representation. Furthermore, in 2018, the Consolidated Company is required to adopt the International Financial Reporting Standard No. 15 for the first time, wherein its recognition of revenue and its judgment of the timing of the transfer of commodity control rights are extremely important for the expression of its financial statements. The Consolidated Company's operating revenues mainly derive from providing online advertising and consulting services, wherein they are recognized in the following different ways. Additionally, the Consolidated Company often received its payments in advance after the contracts are signed; therefore, the amount is deferred according to the Consolidated Company's policy and recognized as revenue once the service is performed. The aforementioned matter is the basis for the Consolidated Company's management to determine the amount of revenue that can be recognized, therefore, revenue recognition was considered to be one of the key audit matters in our audit.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our audit procedures included:

  • ‧ Assessing and testing the design, as well as the effectiveness of the operating on the control over sales and collection cycle. Selecting appropriate samples and comparing them to relevant documents such as customer order and confirmation of completion order signed by customer to assess whether revenue and deferred revenue have been appropriately recognized.

  • ‧ Performing comparison analysis on operating revenue of the current period to last period and the latest quarter to assess the existence of any significant exceptions, and further identify and analyze the reasons, if there is any significant exception.

  • ‧ Performing test-of-detail on operating revenue to assess the assertions of existence and accuracy, as well as the appropriateness of recognition.

  • ‧ Examining relevant documents of a period before and after the balance sheets date, such as customer order, information reported back from business department, or confirmation of completion of duty executed by customer, and verify the accuracy of the amount recognized as revenue in accordance with the timing of service provided or quantity provided to determine whether the deferred revenue should not be recognized as revenue and whether operating revenue has been appropriately recognized.

Other Matter

104 Corporation has prepared parent-company-only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and, on which we have expressed an unqualified opinion.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs, IASs, interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Consolidated Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Consolidated Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Consolidated Company's financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Consolidated Company's internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Consolidated Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Consolidated Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Consolidated Company to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Consolidated Company audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors' report are Min-Ju Chao and Lily Lu.
