INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
ADLINK Technology Inc.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of ADLINK Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and the Standards on Auditing of 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 Group in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for 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 for the year ended December 31, 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
The key audit matters of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 are stated as follows:
Revenue Recognition
The operating revenue of ADLINK Technology Inc. mainly arises from selling industrial computers. Based on our assessment, there is a risk that revenue are recognized for certain customers with specific indicators showing abnormal fluctuations that may not reflect actual transactions. Thus, we identified the occurrence of operating revenue from customers that met the abovementioned criteria as a key audit matter.
Refer to Notes 4 and 22 to the consolidated financial statements for details on accounting policies and relevant disclosures on revenue recognition.
The key audit procedures that we performed in respect of the recognition of operating revenue were as follows:
- We obtained an understanding of the internal controls related to the aforementioned sales transactions, assessed the design and tested the operating effectiveness of these controls.
- We performed substantive procedure testing of the aforementioned sales transactions, examined the external supporting documents and the subsequent collection of receivables, and verified that such transactions did occur. We also verified that payments of major customers was consistent with the payment terms.
- We checked for any significant sales return of the aforementioned sales after December 31, 2025, and we confirmed that no significant misstatements of revenue were found from the aforementioned customers.
Other Matter
We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of ADLINK Technology Inc. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, on which we have issued an unmodified 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 the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect 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 Group'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 Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
- 2 -
Those charged with governance, including the audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Group’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 Standards on Auditing of 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 the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
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.
-
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 Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
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 Group’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 Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
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.
-
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the group 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.
- 3 -
We also provide those charged with governance with statements 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 for the year ended December 31, 2025, 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 audits resulting in this independent auditors' report are Chien-Liang Liu and Yi-Wen Wang.

IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” and consequential amendments
IFRS 18 will supersede IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”. The main changes comprise:
- To classify items of income and expenses presented in the statement of profit or loss into the operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations categories, the Group shall assess whether it has specified main business activities of investing in particular types of assets and providing financing to customers.
- The statement of profit or loss shall present totals and subtotals for operating profit or loss, profit or loss before financing and income taxes and profit or loss.
- Provides guidance to enhance the requirements of aggregation and disaggregation: The Group shall identify the assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows that arise from individual transactions or other events and shall classify and aggregate them into groups based on shared characteristics, so as to result in the presentation in the primary financial statements of line items that have at least one similar characteristic. The Group shall disaggregate items with dissimilar characteristics in the primary financial statements and in the notes. The Group labels items as “other” only if it cannot find a more informative label.
-
Disclosures on Management-defined Performance Measures (MPMs): When in public communications outside financial statements and communicating to users of financial statements management's view of an aspect of the financial performance of the Group as a whole, the Group shall disclose related information about its MPMs in a single note to the financial statements, including the description of such measures, calculations, reconciliations to the subtotal or total specified by IFRS Accounting Standards and the income tax and non-controlling interests effects of related reconciliation items.
-
12 -
In addition, the following consequential amendments have been made to IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”:
- The Group shall use operating profit or loss as the starting point when presenting cash flows from operating activities under the indirect method.
- Interest and dividends received by the Group shall be classified as investing activities, while interest and dividends paid shall be classified as financing activities. However, if, after assessment, the Group has a specific main operating activity, it shall determine how to classify dividends received, interest received and interest paid in the statement of cash flows by referring to how it classifies dividend income, interest income and interest expense in the statement of profit or loss. The total of each of these cash flows shall be classified in a single category in the statement of cash flows.
Except for the above impact, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Group is continuously assessing the other impacts of the above amended standards and interpretations on the Group’s financial position and financial performance and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed.
4. SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION
a. Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRS Accounting Standards as endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC.
b. Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments measured at fair value and net defined benefit liabilities which are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets.
The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, are described as follows:
1) Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
2) Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
3) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for an asset or liability.
c. Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
Current assets include:
1) Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
2) Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting period; and
3) Cash and cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
- 13 -
Current liabilities include:
1) Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
2) Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; and
3) Liabilities for which the Group does not have the substantial right at the end of the reporting period to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.
d. Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the effective dates of acquisitions up to the effective dates of disposals, as appropriate.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
Changes in the Group's ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group's interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Company.
See Note 11 and Tables 7 and 8 for the detailed information on subsidiaries (including percentages of ownership and main businesses).
e. Foreign currencies
In preparing the financial statements of each individual entity in the Group, transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency (i.e., foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are not translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
- 14 -
For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the functional currencies of the Company and the entities in the Group (including subsidiaries and associates in other countries that use currencies different from the currency of the Company) are translated into the presentation currency - the New Taiwan dollar as follows: Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period; income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting currency translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income (attributed to the owners of the Company and non-controlling interests as appropriate).
On the disposal of a foreign operation (i.e., a disposal of the Company's entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving the loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, or a partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or an associate that includes a foreign operation of which the retained interest becomes a financial asset), all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation attributable to the owners of the Company are reclassified to profit or loss.
f. Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials and supplies, work-in-process, finished goods and merchandise, which are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at the weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date.
g. Investments in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and which is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture.
The Group uses the equity method to account for its investments in associates. Under the equity method, investment in an associate is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate. The Group also recognizes the changes in the Group's share of the equity of associates.
When the Group subscribes for additional new shares of an associate at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment differs from the amount of the Group's proportionate interest in the associate. The Group records such a difference as an adjustment to investments with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus - changes in capital surplus from investments in associates accounted for using the equity method. If the Group's ownership interest is reduced due to its additional subscription of the new shares of the associate, the proportionate amount of the gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate is reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required had the investee directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus recognized from investments accounted for using the equity method is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings.
The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date on which its investment ceases to be an associate. Any retained investment is measured at fair value at that date, and the fair value is regarded as the investment's fair value on initial recognition as a financial assets. The difference between the previous carrying amount of the associate attributable to the retained interest and its fair value is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal of the associate. The Group accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate on the same basis as would be required had that associate directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.
- 15 -
When an entity in the Group transacts with its associate, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate are recognized in the Group’s consolidated financial statements only to the extent that interests in the associate are not related to the Group.
h. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.
Property, plant and equipment in the course of construction are measured at cost. Cost includes professional fees. Such assets are depreciated and classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for their intended use.
Except for freehold land which is not depreciated, the depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recognized using the straight-line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effects of any changes in the estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.
On derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.
i. Investment properties
Investment properties are properties held to earn rental and/or for capital appreciation. Investment properties also include land held for a currently undetermined future use.
Investment properties are initially measured at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method.
For a transfer of classification from property, plant and equipment to investment properties, the deemed cost of an item of property for subsequent accounting is its carrying amount at the end of owner-occupation.
For a transfer of classification from the investment properties to property, plant and equipment, the deemed cost of the property, plant and equipment for subsequent accounting is its carrying amount at the commencement of owner-occupation.
On derecognition of an investment property, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is included in profit or loss.
j. Goodwill
Goodwill arising from the acquisition of a business is measured at cost as established at the date of acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment loss.
For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units (referred to as “cash-generating units”) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. If goodwill has been allocated to a cash-generating unit and the Group disposes of an operation within that unit, the goodwill associated with the operation which is disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal and is measured on the basis of the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.
- 16 -
k. Intangible assets
Intangible assets (computer software) with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful lives, residual values, and amortization methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effects of any changes in the estimates accounted for on a prospective basis. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are measured at cost less accumulated impairment loss.
Intangible assets (including trademarks, customer relationship and technological expertise) acquired in a business combination and recognized separately from goodwill are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost). Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately.
On derecognition of an intangible asset, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.
l. Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when an entity in the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
For those financial assets which are measured at fair value, its fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 28.
1) Financial assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. The Group derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.
The Group’s financial assets are classified into the following categories:
a) Financial assets at FVTPL
The Group’s financial assets mandatorily classified as at FVTPL are investments in equity instruments which are not designated as at FVTOCI, it was measured at fair value, and any dividends or interest earned on such financial assets are recognized in other income and interest income, respectively; any remeasurement gains or losses on such financial assets are recognized in other gains or losses.
b) Financial assets at amortized cost
If the financial assets, which are invested by the Group, are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, are subsequently measured at amortized cost.
- 17 -
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets are measured at amortized cost, which equals the gross carrying amount determined using the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss.
Except for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, for which interest income is calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets; and financial assets that are not credit impaired on purchase or origination but have subsequently become credit impaired, which interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets in subsequent reporting periods, interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of such a financial asset.
A financial asset is credit impaired when one or more of the following events have occurred:
i. Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower;
ii. Breach of contract, such as a default;
iii. It is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or undergo a financial reorganization; or
iv. The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.
The Group’s financial assets at amortized cost include cash and cash equivalents, pledge deposits, trade receivables and project deposits at amortized cost, other receivables and refundable deposits. Cash equivalents include time deposits with original maturities within 3 months from the date of acquisition and third-party paying accounts, which are highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.
c) Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI
On initial recognition, the Group may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation as at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.
Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the equity investments, instead, it will be transferred to retained earnings.
Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Group’s right to receive the dividends is established, unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
2) Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
- 18 -
The repurchase of the Group’s own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issuance or cancellation of the Group’s own equity instruments.
3) Financial liabilities
Except the financial liabilities at FVTPL, all financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Financial liabilities held for trading are stated at fair value, and any gains or losses on such financial liabilities are recognized in other gains or losses.
On derecognition of financial liabilities, the difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.
4) Derivative financial instruments
The Group enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks.
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date on which the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately. When the fair value of a derivative financial instrument is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; when the fair value of a derivative financial instrument is negative, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.
m. Assessment of assets impairment
1) Property, plant and equipment, right-of-use asset, investment properties and intangible assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of the above assets, to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually and whenever there is an indication that the assets may be impaired.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss.
When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the corresponding asset, cash-generating unit or assets related to contract costs is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized on the asset, cash-generating unit or assets related to contract costs in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
- 19 -
2) Investments accounted for using the equity method
The entire carrying amount of investments in associates is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized is not allocated to any asset, including goodwill, that forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.
3) Goodwill
A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually or more frequently whenever there is an indication that the unit may be impaired, by comparing its carrying amount, including the attributed goodwill, with its recoverable amount. However, if the goodwill allocated to a cash-generating unit was acquired in a business combination during the current annual period, that unit shall be tested for impairment before the end of the current annual period. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then pro rata to the other assets of the unit based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss is recognized directly in profit or loss. Any impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
4) Financial assets
The Group assesses the impairment loss of financial assets at amortized cost (including trade receivables) by lifetime expected credit losses on each balance sheet date.
The Group always recognizes lifetime expected credit losses for trade receivables. For all other financial instruments, the Group recognizes lifetime ECLs when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly, the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs. If the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly, the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at lifetime expected credit losses.
Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Lifetime ECLs represent the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECLs represent the portion of lifetime ECLs that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
For internal credit risk management purposes, the Group determines that situations such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, or internal or external information show that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors, indicates that a financial asset is in default (without taking into account any collateral held by the Group).
The impairment loss of all financial assets is recognized in profit or loss by a reduction in their carrying amounts through a loss allowance account.
n. Provisions
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the discounted cash flows of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
- 20 -
Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations to assure that products comply with agreed-upon specifications are recognized on the date of sale of the relevant products at the best estimate by the management of the Group of the expenditures required to settle the Group’s obligations.
o. Revenue recognition
The Group identifies contracts with customers, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognizes revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.
1) Revenue from the sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods comes from sales of hardware, software and peripheral devices of industrial computers. Sales of the above goods are recognized as revenue when the goods are delivered to the customer’s specific location or the goods are shipped, because it is the time when the customer has full discretion over the manner of distribution and price to sell the goods, has the primary responsibility for sales to future customers and bears the risks of obsolescence. Trade receivables are recognized concurrently. The transaction price received prior to delivery of the goods is recognized as a contract liability until the goods have been transferred to the customer.
The Group does not recognize revenue on materials delivered to subcontractors because this delivery does not involve a transfer of control.
2) Revenue from the rendering of services
Revenue from the rendering of services comes from the provision of self-developed software authorization, software and hardware installation services and extended warranty services.
Revenue from self-developed software authorization is recognized as the right of receiving royalty at the time of signing.
As the Group provides hardware and software installation services and extended warranty services, customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefits provided by the Group’s performance. Consequently, the related revenue is recognized when services are rendered.
p. Leases
At the inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
1) The Group as lessor
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of a lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Lease payments (less any lease incentives payable) from operating leases are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the relevant leases.
When a lease includes both land and building elements, the Group assesses the classification of each element separately as a finance or an operating lease based on the assessment as to whether substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of each element have been transferred to the lessee. The lease payments are allocated to the land and the building elements in proportion to the relative fair values of the leasehold interests in the land element and building element of the lease at the inception of the contract. If the allocation of the lease payments can be made reliably, each element is accounted for separately in accordance with its lease classification. When the lease payments cannot be allocated reliably to the land and building elements, the entire lease is generally classified as a finance lease unless it is clear that both elements are operating leases; in which case, the entire lease is classified as an operating lease.
- 21 -
2) The Group as lessee
The Group recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of a lease, except for short-term leases and low-value asset leases accounted for applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets, respectively.
Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease terms. However, if leases transfer ownership of the underlying assets to the Group by the end of the lease terms or if the costs of right-of-use assets reflect that the Group will exercise a purchase option, the Group depreciates the right-of-use assets from the commencement dates to the end of the useful lives of the underlying assets.
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, which comprise fixed payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in a lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate will be used.
Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease terms. When there is a change in a lease term, a change in the assessment of an option to purchase an underlying asset, or a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use-assets. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero, any remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Group accounts for the remeasurement of the lease liability by (a) decreasing the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset of lease modifications that decreased the scope of the lease, and recognizing in profit or loss any gain or loss on the partial or full termination of the lease; (b) making a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset of all other lease modifications.
Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
q. Employee benefits
1) Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related services.
2) Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as expenses when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.
- 22 -
Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) under defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service cost (including current service cost and past service cost) and net interest on the net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are recognized as employee benefits expense in the period in which they occur or when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which it occurs. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.
Net defined benefit liabilities represent the actual deficit in the Group’s defined benefit plans.
3) Termination benefits
A liability for a termination benefit is recognized at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of the termination benefits and when the Group recognizes any related restructuring costs.
r. Share-based payment arrangements
The fair value at the grant date of the employee share options is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s best estimates of the number of shares or options that are expected to ultimately vest, with a corresponding increase in capital surplus - employee share options. The expense is recognized in full at the grant date if the grants are vested immediately.
At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of employee share options that are expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates is recognized in profit or loss such that the cumulative expenses reflect the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to capital surplus - employee share options.
s. Taxation
Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss as income tax expense, except when they are related to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity; in which case, the current and deferred taxes are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
1) Current tax
Income tax payable (recoverable) is based on taxable profit (loss) for the year determined according to the applicable tax laws of tax jurisdiction.
According to the Income Tax Act in the ROC, an additional tax of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the shareholders approve to retain earnings.
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.
2) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax credits for research and development expenditures to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
- 23 -
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profit against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the assets to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liabilities are settled or the assets are realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
5. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimations and assumptions on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
When developing material accounting estimates, the Group considers the possible impact on the cash flow projection, growth rates, discount rates, profitabilities and other relevant material estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
Based on the assessment of the Group’s management, the accounting policies, estimates, and assumptions adopted by the Group have not been subject to material accounting judgement, estimates and assumptions uncertainty.

Investments in foreign equity instruments, including ordinary shares and convertible preference shares, are not held for trading. Instead, they are held for medium to long-term strategic purposes. Accordingly, the management elected to designate these investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI as they believe that recognizing short-term fluctuations in these investments' fair value in profit or loss would not be consistent with the Group's strategy of holding these investments for long-term purposes.
Refer to Table 3 for information relating to the foreign equity instruments held by the Group were classified as financial assets at FVTOCI on December 31, 2025.

| Less: Allowance for impairment loss | (19,751) | (19,284) |
| $ 2,166,503 | $ 2,248,555 |
The average credit period of sales of goods is 30 to 90 days. In order to minimize credit risk, the management of the Group has delegated a team responsible for determining credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate allowance is made for possible irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the management believes the Group's credit risk was significantly reduced.
The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables. The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix approach considering the past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor's current financial position, adjusted for general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate and an assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of economic conditions at the reporting date. As the Group's historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision for loss allowance based on past due status is not further distinguished according to the Group's different customer base.
The Group writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery, e.g., when the debtor has been placed under liquidation, or when the trade receivables are over certain days past due, whichever occurs earlier. For trade receivables that have been written off, the Group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in profit or loss.
The following table details the loss allowance of trade receivables based on the Group's provision matrix.

| $ 23,041 | $ 82,517 |
Refer to Tables 7 and 8 for the nature of activities, principal place of business and country of incorporation of the associate.
In July 2024, JY Technology (Shanghai) repurchased the original ordinary shares it held from IDG and declared to reduce its ordinary shares simultaneously. The Group did not participate in the reduced shares of JY Technology (Shanghai); the Group recorded the change in its equity in the associate’s net assets as an adjustment to investments, with a corresponding amount credited to the capital surplus of NT$(19,205) thousand. This transaction did not affect the Group’s significant influence over JY Technology (Shanghai). Since there was a change in the abovementioned investment, the Group’s ownership percentage in JY Technology (Shanghai) increased from 20.56% to 22.34%.
In December 2024, The Group sold a partial equity interest in JY Technology (Shanghai) to Shanghai Cehai and Shanghai Armillary for a total sale price of NT$44,537 thousand (or CNY9,818 thousand); thus, a disposal gain of NT$41,852 thousand (or CNY9,226 thousand) was recognized for the years ended December 31, 2024. The Group recorded the change as an adjustment to investments based on selling percentage from this transaction, with a corresponding amount credited to the capital surplus of NT$(5,334) thousand. This transaction did not affect the Group’s significant influence over JY Technology (Shanghai). Since there was a change in the abovementioned investment, the Group’s ownership percentage in JY Technology (Shanghai) decreased from 22.34% to 18.15%.
In March 2025, JY Technology (Shanghai) declared to reduce its ordinary shares and its shareholders resolved the re-election of directors and supervisors simultaneously. The Group did not elect as directors and consequently ceased to have significant influence over JY Technology (Shanghai). Since there was a change in the abovementioned investment, the Group’s ownership percentage in JY Technology (Shanghai) increased from 18.15% to 18.91%. The Group retained the remaining 18.91% interest as financial assets at FVTOCI whose fair value at the date of loss of significant influence. This transaction resulted in the recognition of a gain (loss) in profit or loss, calculated as follows:
| Carrying amount of investment on the date of loss of significant influence | $ 32,843 |
|---|---|
| Less: Fair value of retained investment | (16,544) |
| Less: Adjustment in the related capital surplus | (14,427) |
| Foreign exchange gains and losses | (1,249) |
| Loss recognized | $ 623 |
In May 2025, May 2024, and December 2024, the Group subscribed for total 1,173 thousand shares of FAROBOT Technology Ltd. with the same amount of payment of US$391 thousand (approximately $11,879 thousand, $12,688 thousand and $12,710 thousand, respectively) at the same percentage as its existing ownership percentage. This transaction did not affect the Group’s significant influence over FAROBOT Technology Ltd.
In December 2025, the Group sold all of its equity interest in JY Technology (Korea) back to JY Technology (Korea) for a total consideration of NT$966 thousand (or US$30 thousand). After taking into account the foreign exchange gains and losses to be derecognized of NT$1,020 thousand, the Group recognized a net gain on disposal of investments accounted for using the equity method of NT$1,986 thousand.

20. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
a. Defined contribution plans
The Company of the Group adopted a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (the LPA), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, an entity makes monthly contributions to employees' individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.
Overseas subsidiaries have to contribute amounts at certain percentage of salaries to the local governments. Employees of these subsidiaries will receive retirement pension from the local governments after retirement.
b. Defined benefit plans
The defined benefit plan adopted by the Company of the Group in accordance with the Labor Standards Act is operated by the government of the ROC. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the six months before retirement. The Company contributes amounts equal to 2% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee's name. Before the end of each year, the Company assesses the balance in the pension fund. If the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Company is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor ("the Bureau"); the Company has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.
The amounts included in the consolidated balance sheets in respect of the Group's defined benefit plans are as follows:
| December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Present value of defined benefit obligation | $ 75,383 | $ 90,104 |

Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Act, the Company is exposed to the following risks:
1) Investment risk: The plan assets are invested in domestic and foreign equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets shall not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
2) Interest risk: A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plans' debt investments.
3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated using the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salaries of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.
The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The significant assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations are as follows:
| December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Discount rate(s) | 1.40% | 1.65% |
| Expected rate(s) of salary increase | 3.80% | 3.80% |
If possible reasonable change in each of the significant actuarial assumptions occur and all other assumptions remain constant, the present value of the defined benefit obligation would increase (decrease) as follows:
| December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Discount rate(s) | ||
| 0.25% increase | $ (1,686) | $ (1,901) |
| 0.25% decrease | $ 1,756 | $ 1,971 |
| Expected rate(s) of salary increase | ||
| 0.25% increase | $ 1,710 | $ 1,925 |
| 0.25% decrease | $ (1,651) | $ (1,867) |
The above sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that changes in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.
| December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Expected contributions to the plan for the next year | $ 1,359 | $ 1,907 |
| Average duration of the defined benefit obligation | 9.2 years | 8.7 years |

c. Retained earnings and dividends policy
Under the dividends policy as set forth in the Company's Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles"), where the Company made post-tax profit for the period and other profit or loss items adjusted to the current year's undistributed earnings other than post-tax profit for the period in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for offsetting losses of previous years, setting aside as legal reserve 10% of the remaining profit unless the total legal reserve accumulated has already reached the amount of the Company's authorized capital. When a special reserve is appropriated from the prior unappropriated earnings for cumulative net debit balance reserves from prior period, the sum of net profit for the current period and items other than net profit that are included directly in the unappropriated earnings for the current period shall be used if the prior unappropriated earnings is not sufficient, setting aside or reversing special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings, which should be resolved in the shareholders' meeting for distribution of dividends and bonuses to shareholders. The distributable dividends and bonuses, capital surplus or legal reserve in whole or in part may be paid in cash after a resolution has been adopted by a majority vote at a meeting of the board of directors attended by two-thirds of the total number of directors; in addition, a report of such distribution shall be submitted to the shareholders' meeting, and then resolutions adopted by the shareholders' meeting of the above dividends policy are not required. For the Company's policies on distribution of employees' compensation and remuneration of directors, refer to "Employees' compensation and remuneration of directors" in Note 23-f.
The Articles stipulate that the Company adopts a residual dividend policy. After setting aside amounts based on the Company's capital budget plan, the residual profits shall be distributed as cash dividends. The Articles also prescribe that distribution of cash dividends shall not be less than 10% of total dividends.
An appropriation of earnings to a legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Company's paid-in capital. The legal reserve may be used to offset deficit. If the Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Company's paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.
Items referred to under Rule No. 1090150022, issued by the FSC and the directive titled "Questions and Answers for Special Reserves Appropriated Following Adoption of IFRS Accounting Standards" should be appropriated to or reversed from a special reserve by the Company.

Net Profit for the Year
| For the Year Ended December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Earnings used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share | $ 511,507 | $ 50,900 |

Such dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the number of shares to be distributed to employees is resolved in the following year.
26. EMPLOYEE SHARE OPTION PLAN
As of December 31, 2025, qualified employees of the Company were granted 5,000 options. Each option entitles the holder to subscribe for one thousand ordinary shares of the Company.

27. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as going concerns while maximizing the return to stakeholders through the optimization of the debt and total assets balance. The Group’s overall strategy is expected to remain unchanged for the year ahead.
Key management personnel of the Group review the capital structure on a quarterly basis. As part of this review, the key management personnel consider the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. Based on recommendations of the key management personnel, in order to balance the overall capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, the number of new shares, and the amount of new debt issued.
28. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
a. Fair value of financial instruments not measured at fair value
Management considers that the carrying amounts of the financial instruments recognized in the consolidated financial statements approximate their fair values.
b. Fair value of financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis
1) Fair value hierarchy
The Group measured foreign exchange forward contracts at fair value under Level 2, respectively. The financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income were measured by the Group at fair value under Levels 3.
There were no transfers between Levels 1 and 2 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
2) Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 2 fair value measurement
Foreign exchange forward contracts measured at discounted cash flows basis, which are estimated based on observable forward exchange rates at the end of the reporting period and contract forward rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of various counterparties.
3) Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 3 fair value measurement
The fair values of foreign unlisted securities, which are emerging market equity securities, are determined by using the asset approach. In the asset approach, the total market value of individual asset and liability of the evaluated target is evaluated by taking into account the risk factors (e.g., lack of marketability) to estimate the fair value.
c. Categories of financial instruments
| December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Financial assets | ||
| Financial assets at FVTPL | $ 98 | $ - |
| Financial assets at amortized cost (1) | 4,849,338 | 4,574,067 |
| Financial assets at FVTOCI | 101,607 | 89,958 |
| Financial liabilities | ||
| Financial liabilities at FVTPL | 13,221 | 1,518 |
| Financial liabilities at amortized cost (2) | 6,520,050 | 6,605,943 |
1) The balances include financial assets at amortized cost, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, time deposits and project deposits, notes receivable, trade and other receivables (including related parties) and refundable deposits.
2) The balances include financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, which comprise short-term borrowings, trade and other payable (including related parties), long-term borrowings (including current portion) and guarantee deposits received (classified as other current liabilities).
d. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s major financial instruments include trade receivables, trade payables and borrowings. The Group’s Corporate Treasury function provides services to the business, coordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal risk reports which analyze exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
1) Market risk
The Group’s activities exposed it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To manage operating funds effectively and create short-term capital gains, the Group used the partial of operating funds to invest in foreign equity instruments. The Group considered price risk arising from investment in foreign equity instruments is not significant based on nature and amount of the investment.
There has been no change to the Group’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which these risks were managed and measured.
- 47 -
- 48 -
a) Foreign currency risk
The Group had sales and purchases denominated in foreign currency, which exposed the Group to foreign currency risk. Based on the approval range of policy, the Group managed the partial of foreign currency risk through foreign exchange forward contracts.
The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities (including those eliminated on consolidation) are set out in Note 32.
Sensitivity analysis
The Group was mainly exposed to the USD, CNY and EUR.
The Group’s sensitivity of 1% is used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the end of the reporting period for a 1% change in foreign currency rates.
A positive number below indicates an increase in pre-tax profit that would result if the New Taiwan dollar (the functional currency) weakened 1% against the relevant currency. For a 1% strengthening of the New Taiwan dollar against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on pre-tax profit and the balances below would be negative.
| For the Year Ended December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| USD impact | $ 14,234 | $ 7,963 |
| CNY impact | 1,742 | 3,381 |
| EUR impact | 7,003 | 3,329 |
The impact listed above was mainly attributable to the exposure on outstanding USD, CNY and EUR deposits, receivables, payables and borrowings.
b) Interest rate risk
The Group was exposed to interest rate risk because entities in the Group borrowed funds at both fixed and floating interest rates.
The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows:
| December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Fair value interest rate risk | ||
| Financial assets | $ 26,342 | $ 147,044 |
| Financial liabilities | 911,185 | 1,028,309 |
| Cash flow interest rate risk | ||
| Financial assets | 1,983,554 | 1,641,927 |
| Financial liabilities | 3,385,865 | 3,240,626 |
- 49 -
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the Group’s exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate assets and liabilities, the analysis was prepared assuming the amount of each asset and liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 50 basis point increase or decrease was used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s pre-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 would have decreased/increased by $7,012 thousand and $9,699 thousand, respectively.
2) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. As at the end of the reporting period, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk, which would cause a financial loss to the Group due to failure of counterparties to discharge an obligation, could arise from the carrying amount of the respective recognized financial assets as stated in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Group adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties. Before accepting new customers, the Group evaluated the potential customer’s credit quality through internal credit reporting and sales management department to determine credit limits. Credit limits and rating will be re-evaluated regularly every year.
In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at the end of the year to ensure that adequate allowance is made for possible irrecoverable amounts.
The Group’s concentration of credit risk by geographical locations was mainly in the U.S.A., mainland China and Europe. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the proportion of trade receivables from those mentioned above to total trade receivables were as follows:
| December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| U.S.A. | 36% | 31% |
| Mainland China | 19% | 27% |
| Europe | 15% | 16% |
3) Liquidity risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash deemed adequate to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.
The Group relies on bank borrowings as a significant source of liquidity. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Group had available unutilized bank facilities as set out in (b) below.
a) Liquidity and interest rate risk table for non-derivative financial liabilities
The following table details the Group's remaining contractual maturities for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities from the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. Specifically, bank loans with a repayment on demand clause were included in the earliest time band regardless of the probability of the banks choosing to exercise their rights. The maturity dates for other non-derivative financial liabilities were based on the agreed repayment dates.
