Report 1

To report 2024 operating results

Asia Polymer Corporation
2024 Business Report

The Company's 2024 net sales were NTD 5,817 million, a decrease of NTD 725 million from the previous year, with a budget achievement rate of 92%. The net loss before income tax was NTD 924 million, a decrease of NTD 1,070 million from the net profit before income tax of the previous year. The net loss after income tax was NTD 751 million.

Looking back on the 2024 operation, the oil price rose to the peak in the first quarter and then fell back. However, the price basically remained higher than US$70/barrel. The price of naphtha increased due to the expanded production capacity of naphtha crackers in China, which pushed up naphtha prices, resulting in an increase in the cost of ethylene procurement by the Company compared to the previous year. The EVA market was also affected by the expansion of production capacity in China. Not only the self-sufficiency rate continued to increase and cut-throat competition, but the severe exclusion impact on imports. On the demand side, due to the US-China trade war, the slowdown of the Chinese economy, the growth of the photovoltaic demand was lower than expected, and the export of footwear was also slow, the supply and demand in the Asian region has gradually changed. The EVA market rebounded from a decline in Q1 but fell again since early Q2. The market not only hit a five-year low, but

  • 4 -

some prices of the general-purpose grades even went down to below the cost of production. Fortunately, in response to the significant expansion of EVA capacity in China in recent years, the Company has continued to develop differentiated products. Among them, coating grade EVA had a high technological bottleneck in production. So far the Chinese local producers can only supply in small quantities for low-end applications. The Company continued to expand its markets, and the sales volume of coating grade EVA increased by 26% compared to the previous year. In addition, the market development in Southeast Asia was also enhanced to reduce the cut-throat competition in the general-purpose grade market in China, and we timely grasp the market dynamics. In the case of poor EVA market conditions, the Company flexibly adjusted the production, increased the production of LDPE, and maintained the full production and sales throughout the year.

The total annual sales volume of LDPE/EVA was 132,000 tons, an increase of 1% from the previous year. The average selling price decreased by 3% and 18%, respectively. In terms of production, the total output of LDP/EVA for the year was approximately 131,000 tons, a 1% decline compared to the previous year. The improvement of the process of hot melt adhesive product development has reached the quantitative commercial production stage, and the application market is gradually promoted. In doing this, we are able to order to stay aligned with the Group's sales strategy and improve the flexibility of the future production portfolio.

Based on the annual operating results, the price declined and the cost of raw materials increased, resulting in narrower product margins. Operating loss for the year was NTD 121 million, a decrease of NTD

  • 5 -

1,029 million from operating profit of the previous year. Non-operating expenses were NTD 803 million, mainly caused by the investment loss recognized under the equity method.

The Company has been actively promoting ESG strategies based on USI’s core philosophy of "Creating Sustainable Value and Sharing a Sustainable Society" to respond to environmental and social challenges. The Company has been recognized by many parties for its efforts in sustainable development. In terms of social responsibility, in 2024, the Company was awarded the three-year “Occupational Safety and Health Performance Recognition” and "Top 10% of Enterprises in the Voluntary Evaluation of Occupational Health and Safety Indicators", demonstrating the Company's high level of concern for the health and safety of its employees. In terms of corporate governance, the Company ranked in the top 6% - 20% of all listed companies in the 10th Corporate Governance Appraisal, which indicates the Company's sound governance mechanism. In addition, the Company won the "Top 100 Sustainability Exemplary Awards" and the "Sustainable Report Platinum Award" in the 17th Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards (TCSA) in 2024. The Company will continue to strengthen its sustainable governance and information transparency to enhance its resilience. In terms of the environment, the Company takes into account the increasing global awareness of net zero and resource recycling. We are committed to finding a solution for a plastic recycling program from production to disposal, aiming to reduce production costs, mitigate environmental impacts, and promote a circular economy. The Company has actively invested in the development and certification of renewable plastic products, and has begun to reduce the shipment of small quantities since the end of 2024.

Moreover, the Company passed the SGS international verification in February 2025, successfully obtaining the ISO 14021 ESG material certification and green mark.

Looking ahead to 2025, Q1 2025, due to previous bearishness in the photovoltaic industry, the overall supply chain inventory remained too low. After the Spring Festival, inventories were replenished, boosting the EVA market to rebound slightly. However, there will be a lot of new EVA capacity in China that will be put into production, and the threat must not be underestimated. Fortunately, the long-term outlook of the photovoltaic industry is still optimistic, as the economic policies in China are expected to increase consumption demand or ease the pressure of petrochemical products oversupply. At the same time, the Company will continue to develop differentiated and high-value products and expand the market outside of China to reduce the dependence on the market in China. In addition, the Company will strengthen the management of inventory, supply chain and maintain the stability of production to achieve company business objectives. The Company will continue to deepen its ESG strategy, promote co-existence and co-prosperity between the enterprise and the environment through innovation, collaboration and strategic adjustments, and create long-term value for society and the environment.

Resolution:


INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To Asia Polymer Corporation:

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only financial statements of Asia Polymer Corporation (the "Company"), which comprise the parent company only balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the parent company only statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with The 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 parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matters related to the Company's parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 are stated as follows:

Recognition of Sales Revenue from Specific Customers

The amount of sales revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 was NT$5,816,814 thousand, which was approximately 11.08% lower than the sales revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023 of NT$6,541,670 thousand. Nevertheless, the sales revenue from specific customers deviates significantly from the trend of total sales revenue. Therefore, recognition of sales revenue from these specific customers has been identified as a key audit matter.

The audit procedures that we performed in response to the risk were as follows:

  1. We obtained an understanding of the design and implementation of internal controls about these specific customers and tested if these controls were performed effectively. Such controls include credit assessments of customers, revenue recognition and receivables collection.
  2. We sampled and inspected purchase orders from these specific customers, shipping confirmations and receivables collection receipts in order to verify the accuracy of sales revenue.
  3. We reviewed sales returns and discounts recognized along with the amounts received in subsequent periods to assess for any abnormalities.

12

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

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

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

Those charged with governance (including the audit committee) are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

  6. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial


statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the 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 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 financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors' report are

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To Asia Polymer Corporation:

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Asia Polymer Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Group"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to 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 of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and 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 (FSC) of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the 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, 2024. 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 identified in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 are stated as follows:

Recognition of Sales Revenue from Specific Customers

The amount of sales revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 was NT$6,031,266 thousand, which was approximately 10.21% lower than the sales revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023 of NT$6,717,128 thousand. Nevertheless, the sales revenue from specific customers deviates significantly from the trend of total sales revenue. Therefore, recognition of sales revenue from these specific customers has been identified as a key audit matter.

The audit procedures that we performed in response to the risk were as follows:

  1. We obtained an understanding of the design and implementation of internal controls about these specific customers and tested if these controls were performed effectively. Such controls include credit assessments of customers, revenue recognition and receivables collection.
  2. We sampled and inspected purchase orders from these specific customers, shipping confirmations and receivables collection receipts in order to verify the accuracy of sales revenue.
  3. We reviewed sales returns and discounts recognized along with the amounts received in subsequent periods to assess for any abnormalities.

Other Matter

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Asia Polymer Corporation as of and for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 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 IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC 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.

Those charged with governance (including the audit committee) are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

  • 21 -

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

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

As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and 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 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.
  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.

  • 22 -

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, 2024 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors' report are
Chiu, Cheng-Chun (Financial Supervisory Commission, Jin Guan Zheng Liu Zi No. 0930160267)
and Chuang, Pi-Yu (Financial Supervisory Commission, Jin Guan Zheng Shen Zi No. 1070323246)
