After years of development, our depth image processing and chip technology have been recognized by world-class mobile phone companies and semiconductor manufacturers. Nonetheless, due to the fast change in wearable image product market, and the late shipment of chips and dual camera modules, the consolidated revenue amounted to NT$10.6 billion in 2017, representing a decrease of approximately 9% from the previous year while the consolidated gross profit rate was 14%, the net income was NT$13.402 million, and the earnings per share was NT$0.05.

Altek has been dedicated in depth computing and algorithm technology for years and has held plenty of patents in Taiwan, China and the United States. Altek’s 3D-Depth Sensing Chip, together with active IR (infrared) light will further enhance the real-time depth quality and computing to support a wide range of applications. In 2018, most mainstream models of smart phones will be equipped with dual camera functions that will substantially boost the penetration rate of dual-camera mobile phone. In addition, surveillance, autonomous vehicle, smart home assistant, drone, sweeping robot.., etc, will all feature 3D sensing and even AI function soon. The application of imaging technology in relevant fields will become increasingly thriving and play key roles. We will continue to invest more R&D resources to develop more products meeting market demand and grasp the opportunity of growth.

This year, we’re still facing the rapid changes in new technologies, new materials and business environments. Therefore, Altek colleagues need to overcome those challenges, deepen the core technology of digital image, enhance product added value, and strengthen system, procedure so that we can expand the market share and strengthen

Attachment 3

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

PWCR 17000244 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars) To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Altek Corporation

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Altek Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as at December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of 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 Group as at December 31, 2017 and 2016, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the 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 for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, 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 as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matters for the Group’s consolidated financial statements of the current period are stated as follows:

Allowance for inventory valuation losses

Description

Please refer to Note 4(12) for description of accounting policy on inventory valuation. Please refer to Note 5(2) for accounting estimates and assumption uncertainty in relation to inventory valuation. Please refer to Note 6(4) for description of allowance for inventory

10

valuation losses.

The Group is primarily engaged in manufacturing and sales of digital image application products. As the Group is in a rapidly changing industry and the short life cycle of electronic products and the highly competitive nature of the market, there is a higher risk of incurring inventory valuation losses or having obsolete inventory. The Group measures inventories sold at the lower of cost and net realisable value. For inventory that is over a certain age and individually identified obsolete or damaged inventory, the company recognises losses at net realisable value. Aforementioned allowance for inventory valuation losses mainly arises from individually identified obsolete or damaged inventory. Since the value of inventories is significant, involves various types of inventory, and the individual identification of inventory usually involves management judgement which is an area that also needs to be assessed using our judgement during the audit process. Thus, we identified valuation of allowance for inventory losses as one of the key audit matters.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:

  • A. Obtained an understanding and assessed the provision policy on inventory valuation losses.

  • B. Obtained the statement of individually identified obsolete inventory prepared by management and checked the accuracy of stock age analysis report and relevant information.

  • C. Checked the accuracy of net realizable value of inventory, assessed the consistency between valuation of market value decline and its provision policy, and assessed the reasonableness of allowance for valuation losses determined by the Group.

11

Timing of sales revenue recognition

Description

Please refer to Note 4(27) for accounting policies of revenue recognition. The Company and its subsidiaries’ revenue mainly arises from export sales and the cash amounts are material. As the sales terms vary from customers who are located in Mainland China, Europe and America, the terms in customer orders and contracts needs to be properly assessed. Since this involves judgement in the determination of timing of ownership transfer, we consider the timing of revenue recognition as a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:

  • A. Assessed the appropriation of policies on sales revenue recognition.

  • B. Assessed and tested the design of internal controls that are relevant to sales revenue recognition and the effectiveness of execution.

  • C. Performed cutoff test on sales revenue in specific period around balance sheet date.

  • D. Performed confirmation and substantive test on the balance of accounts receivable at the end of period to confirm accounts receivable and that relevant sales revenue have been recorded in the proper period.

Other matter – Parent company only financial reports

We have audited and expressed an unqualified opinion on the parent company only financial statements of Altek Corporation as at and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

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 Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, 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.

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

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated

12

financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s 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 ROC GAAS 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 ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgement 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 Group’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 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 auditor’s 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 auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group 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 appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the 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.

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.

13

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 auditor’s 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.
