INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REVIEW REPORT TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of AMTRAN TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of AMTRAN TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES (the “Group”) as at September 30, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months and nine months then ended, as well as the consolidated statements of changes in equity and of cash flows for the nine months then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these consolidated financial statements based on our reviews.

Scope of Review

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the Statement of Auditing Standards No. 65 “Review of Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity” in the Republic of China. A review of consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our reviews and the reports of other independent auditors, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position

~4~

of the Group as at September 30, 2024 and 2023, and of its consolidated financial performance for the three months and nine months then ended and its consolidated cash flows for the nine months then ended in accordance with “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Other matter

We did not review the financial statements of certain consolidated subsidiaries. Those financial statements were reviewed by other independent auditors, whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our conclusion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the financial statements was based solely on the review reports of other independent auditors. Total assets of these subsidiaries amounted to NT$481,604 thousand and NT$437,142 thousand, both constituting 2% of the consolidated total assets as at September 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively, and total operating revenues amounted to NT$8,311 thousand, (NT$3,981) thousand, NT$62,660 thousand and NT$33,344 thousand, constituting 4.2%, (2.5%), 5.1% and 5.5% of the consolidated total operating revenues for the three months and nine months then ended, respectively.

For and on Behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers, Taiwan November 7, 2024

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The accompanying consolidated financial statements are not intended to present the financial position and results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China. The standards, procedures and practices in the Republic of China governing the audit of such financial statements may differ from those generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and independent auditors’ report are not intended for use by those who are not informed about the accounting principles or auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, and their applications in practice.

As the financial statements are the responsibility of the management, PricewaterhouseCoopers cannot accept any liability for the use of, or reliance on, the English translation or for any errors or misunderstandings that may derive from the translation.

(4) Employee benefits

A. Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in respect of service rendered by employees in a period and should be recognised as expense in that period when the employees render service.

B. Pensions

(a) Defined contribution plans

For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognised as pension expense when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.

~20~

  - (b) Defined benefit plans

     - i. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Group in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. Every year, the actuary calculated defined benefit obligation by using projected unit credit method, and the discount rate was based on the market yield rate of government bond on the balance sheet date.

     - ii. Remeasurements arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings.

     - iii. Past service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

     - iv. Pension cost for the interim period is calculated on a year-to-date basis by using the pension cost rate derived from the actuarial valuation at the end of the prior financial year, adjusted for significant market fluctuations since that time and for significant curtailments, settlements, or other significant one-off events. Also, the related information is disclosed accordingly.
  • C. Termination benefits

    • Termination benefits are employee benefits provided in exchange for the termination of employment as a result from either the Group’s decision to terminate an employee’s employment before the normal retirement date, or an employee’s decision to accept an offer of redundancy benefits in exchange for the termination of employment. The Group recognises expense as it can no longer withdraw an offer of termination benefits or it recognises relating restructuring costs, whichever is earlier. Benefits that are expected to be due more than 12 months after balance sheet date shall be discounted to their present value.
  • D. Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration

    • Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognised as expense and liability, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates.
  • (5) Income tax

  • A. The interim period income tax expense is recognised based on the estimated average annual effective income tax rate expected for the full financial year applied to the pretax income of the interim period, and the related information is disclosed accordingly.

  • B. If a change in tax rate is enacted or substantively enacted in an interim period, the Group recognises the effect of the change immediately in the interim period in which the change occurs. The effect of the change on items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity while the effect of the change on items recognised in profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss.

~21~

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies and make critical assumptions and estimates concerning future events. Assumptions and estimates may differ from the actual results and are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors. Such assumptions and estimates have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year; and the related information is addressed below:

  • (1) Critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies

There have been no significant changes during the period. For the detailed information, refer to Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

  • (2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

  • A. Revenue recognition

    • The Group estimates sales discounts and returns provisions based on historical results and other known factors. Provisions for such liabilities are recognised as a deduction item to sales revenues when the sales are recognised. The Group reassesses the reasonableness of estimates of discounts and returns periodically.

As of September 30, 2024, the provision for sales discounts and returns recognised by the Group was $246,332.

  • B. Evaluation of inventories

  • As inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, the Group must determine the net realisable value of inventories on balance sheet date using judgements and estimates. Due to the rapid technology innovation, the Group evaluates the amounts of normal inventory consumption, obsolete inventories or inventories without market selling value on balance sheet date, and writes down the cost of inventories to the net realisable value. Such an evaluation of inventories is principally based on the demand for the products within the specified period in the future. Therefore, there might be material changes to the evaluation.

As of September 30, 2024, information on the carrying amount of inventories as of September 30, 2024 is provided in Note 6(5).

  • C. Financial assets—fair value measurement of unlisted stocks without active market The fair value of unlisted stocks (including beneficiary certificate) held by the Group that are not traded in an active market is determined considering those companies’ recent fund raising activities and technical development status, fair value assessment of other companies of the same type, market conditions and other economic indicators existing at balance sheet date. Any changes in these judgements and estimates will impact the fair value measurement of these unlisted stocks. Refer to Note 12(2) for the financial instruments fair value information.

  • As of September 30, 2024, the carrying amount of unlisted stocks without active market was $442,221.

(18) Retained earnings

  • A. Where the Company accrues profit in the half year, it should first be reserved to pay tax and offset against accumulated deficit, and appropriate 10% of which as legal reserve unless legal reserve amounts to the total authorised capital. In addition, special reserve that has been appropriated or reversed in accordance with related regulations along with the unappropriated retained earnings of the first half of the year can be proposed by Board of Directors for earnings appropriation of dividends. The proposal of appropriation should be approved by the shareholders if dividends would be distributed by issuing new shares; it should be resolved by the Board of Directors if dividends would be distributed in the form of cash. The dividends must not be less than 20% of distributable retained earnings of current year. The dividend can be appropriated in cash or shares and cash dividends must not be less than 20% of total dividends.

  • B. To accompany the growth and overall environment of the high-tech sector, the Company’s dividend policy is based on the earnings, financial structure and the future development. In addition, the dividend is distributed according to the appropriation of the earnings. Stock dividend shall be based on the proportion to the reserves.

  • C. Except for covering accumulated deficit or issuing new stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership, the legal reserve shall not be used for any other purpose. The use of legal reserve for the issuance of stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership is permitted, provided that the distribution of the reserve is limited to the portion in excess of 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital.

  • D. In accordance with the regulations, the Company shall set aside special reserve from the debit balance on other equity items at the balance sheet date before distributing earnings. When debit balance on other equity items is reversed subsequently, the reversed amount could be included in the distributable earnings.

COMMITMENTS

(a) Contingencies

The supplier, Suzhou Hanraysun Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd., of the Group’s subsidiary, Suzhou Raken Technology Ltd. (‘Suzhou Raken’), filed a civil lawsuit against Suzhou Raken with the Suzhou People’s Court in July 2019. Suzhou Hanraysun Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. has requested that Suzhou Raken shall pay the disputed amount under the purchase contract from 2020 to 2021 amounting to approximately $41,973.

  • B. Financial risk management policies

  • The Group adopts an overall risk management and control system to identify and evaluate risk. The Group has a Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to manage all the risk management policies and risk controls. The main duty of the CFO is to oversee implementation of the Group's risk control strategies as follows:

  • (a) The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge the price, interest rate and exchange rate fluctuations, etc. of the Company’s assets and liabilities, when these affect profit or loss.

  • (b) The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge the exchange rate fluctuation arising from the foreign currency price of export or import transactions.

  • (c) Depending on the risk of the variation of derivative financial instruments, to set up stop-loss point to limit possible losses.

  • (d) To transact with international financial institutions with good credit standing.

  • (e) To maintain working capital sufficient to support the cash flows resulting from the above contracts and reduce funding risk.

The Group believes that the above financial risk control strategies can effectively lower each kind of risks that the Group encounters.

  • C. Significant financial risks and degrees of financial risks

  • (a) Market risk

Foreign exchange risk

  • i. The Group operates internationally and is exposed to exchange rate risk arising from the transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries used in various functional currency, primarily with respect to the USD and RMB. Exchange rate risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities.

  • ii. Management has set up a policy to require group companies to manage their foreign exchange risk against their functional currency. The companies are required to hedge their entire foreign exchange risk exposure with the Group treasury. Exchange rate risk is measured through a forecast of highly probable USD and RMB expenditures. Forward foreign exchange contracts are adopted to minimise the volatility of the exchange rate affecting cost of forecast inventory purchases.

  • iii. The Group’s businesses involve some non-functional currency operations (the Company’s and certain subsidiaries’ functional currency: NTD; other subsidiaries’ functional currency: RMB).

Price risk

  • i. The Group’s equity securities, which are exposed to price risk, are the held financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Group diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the Group.

  • ii. The Group’s investments in equity securities comprise shares and open-end funds issued by the domestic/overseas companies. The prices of equity securities would change due to the change of the future value of investee companies. If the prices of these equity securities increased/decreased by 1% or floating discount rate changes by 1% with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 would have increased/decreased by $8,572 and $18,064, respectively, as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Other components of equity would have increased/decreased by $1,932 and $19, respectively, as a result of other comprehensive income on equity investments classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income.

Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

  • i. The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable rates, which expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. As of September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Group’s borrowings at variable rate were mainly denominated in RMB dollars and NT dollars.

~61~

  • ii. At September 30, 2024 and 2023, if interest rates on borrowings had been 0.1% higher/lower with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 would have been $656 and $399 lower/higher, respectively, mainly as a result of changes in interest expense on floating rate borrowings.

  • (b) Credit risk

  • i. Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. The main factor is that counterparties could not repay in full the accounts receivable based on the agreed terms. Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. The main factor is that counterparties could not repay in full the accounts receivable based on the agreed terms, and the contract cash flows of financial instruments stated at amortised cost. The main factor is that counterparties could not repay in full the accounts receivable based on the agreed terms.

  • ii. The Group manages its credit risk taking into consideration the entire group’s concern. For banks and financial institutions, only independently rated parties with a minimum rating of 'A' are accepted. According to the Group’s credit policy, each local entity in the Group is responsible for managing and analysing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.

  • iii. The Group adopts the assumption under IFRS 9, that is, the default occurs when the contract payments are past due over 90 days.

  • iv. The ageing analysis of accounts receivable and notes receivable that were past due but not impaired is as follows:

(3) Fair value information

  • A. The different levels that the inputs to valuation techniques are used to measure fair value of financial and non-financial instruments have been defined as follows:

  • Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. A market is regarded as active where a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of the Group’s investment in listed stocks, beneficiary certificates and etc. is included in Level 1.

  • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The fair value of the Group’s investment in convertible bonds and most derivative instruments is included in Level 2.

  • Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value of the Group’s investment in equity investment without active market is included in Level 3.

  • B. Financial instruments not measured at fair value

  • The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, accounts receivable (including related parties), other receivables, notes payable, accounts payable and other payables (including related parties) are approximate to their fair values.

  • C. The related information on financial and non-financial instruments measured at fair value by level on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the assets and liabilities is as follows: (a) The related information on the nature of the assets and liabilities is as follows:

  • (b) The methods and assumptions the Group used to measure fair value are as follows:

  • i. The instruments the Group used market quoted prices as their fair values (that is, Level

    • 1) are listed below by characteristics:

Listed shares Open-end fund Convertible bond Market quoted price Closing price Net asset value Closing

  • ii. Except for financial instruments with active markets, the fair value of other financial instruments is measured by using valuation techniques. The fair value of financial instruments measured by using valuation techniques can be referred to current fair value of instruments with similar terms and characteristics in substance, other valuation methods, including calculated by applying model using market information available at the consolidated balance sheet date.

~66~

  • iii. When assessing non-standard and low-complexity financial instruments, for example, foreign exchange swap contracts, the Group adopts valuation technique that is widely used by market participants. The inputs used in the valuation method to measure these financial instruments are normally observable in the market.

  • iv. The valuation of derivative financial instruments is based on valuation model widely accepted by market participants, such as present value techniques and option pricing models. Forward exchange contracts are usually valued based on the current forward exchange rate.

  • v. The Group takes into account adjustments for credit risks to measure the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments to reflect credit risk of the counterparty and the Group’s credit quality.

  • D. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, there was no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2.

  • E. The following chart is the movement of Level 3 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

  • F. In the valuation process of categorising the fair value into Level 3, the Group’s investment segment or the appointed third party conducts independent verification for the fair value of financial instruments by matching the valuation result with market status through independent resource, verifying its independence, reliability, consistency with other resource and representation of viable price. Besides, the segment regularly calibrates the valuation model, conducts retrospective tests, updates the values of input, data, and makes any other necessary adjustment to the fair value to ensure the valuation result is reasonable.

  • G. The details about quantified information in relation to significant unobservable inputs for measuring the fair value of Level 3 and sensitivity analysis of significant unobservable inputs is listed below and Note 12(3)8:
