Attachment 1

2021 Business Report

Looking back on 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic repeatedly ravaged economic activity while producing market turmoil. In terms of supply chain, additional factors such as component shortages and port congestions brought forth many variables and challenges for AUO’s business. In the first half of the year, the pandemic generated sustained demand in the stay-at-home economy, leading in turn to strong demand for consumer products. With the pandemic gradually easing in the second half, demand shifted to commercial models and products centering on commercial applications. Confronting these rapid market changes, the Company fully leveraged our team spirit and adaptability in adjusting its business strategies. Furthermore, our Company-wide efforts created total annual revenues of NTD 370.7 billion, achieving a significant increase of nearly NTD 100 billion compared with the prior year. Meanwhile, net profit attributable to the parent company attained a record high of NTD 61.33 billion. These results have also fully demonstrated the outcome of the Company’s value transformation strategy, bringing forth a year of abundance for AUO.

On our path toward value transformation under the concept of AUO NEXT, we continue to strengthen our research and development of forward-looking display technology while launching high-end product applications ahead of the market. Furthermore, the Company is extending into selected fields and teaming up with ecosystem partners to actively create smart field applications and value-added innovations. Looking back on 2021, AUO's achievements include the following:

  • Grasping the trend of panels for gaming displays, AUO is taking the lead in extending gaming display technologies to gaming applications of different sizes, from monitors to TV panels, in order to meet the needs of customers in multiple entertainment scenarios.

  • AUO has launched the world’s highest refresh rate 360Hz gaming notebook panel and ultra-high refresh rate 240Hz gaming monitor panel to display clear and smooth moving images, and combined with Mini LED backlight technology, it clearly shows all the details of the dark scenes, allowing players to master speed, the crux skill for victory in racing and shooting games.

  • AUO was the first to launch an 85-inch 4K gaming TV panel with the highest 240Hz variable refresh rate in the world, using special processes and material for panel pixels combined with panel circuit design technology to create ultra-high screen refresh rates to effectively eliminate screen lag and image disruption. This makes animated images clearer and more realistic, presenting game visual effects in their entirety along with ultra-high image contrast to create a new game immersion experience.

  • AUO uses sophisticated and innovative technology in all aspects of the green cycle. In addition to being the first panel manufacturer in the world to receive the UL 3600 Circularity Certification, we have also launched environmentally friendly concept notebook panels with customers and have used more diversified material application methods to create differentiated brand value for customers.

  • AUO holds the leading position in LTPS notebook panels. Brands favor the advantages of LTPS including low power consumption and a narrow bezel, and it can be widely used in high-end notebook products. In order to meet market demand, AUO further expanded its production capacity of LTPS panels at the Kunshan plant in 2021. We shall continue to use existing technologies and fabs to increase overall notebook panel production capacity to meet the strong demand for IT panels in the post-pandemic era, consolidating AUO’s global market share in high-end notebook panels.

  • Given the accelerating digital transformation of global industries, there is an increasing reliance on human-machine interfaces. Long-distance, non-contact communication has given rise to a strong desire for high-end monitors. AUO continues to pursue the evolution of cutting-edge display technology, showing how displays can respond to changing demands and making them the best facilitator of smooth communications between humans and machines.

  • As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, a large portion of person-to-person communication has been transferred online. There are thus more opportunities for people to stare at their screens for long periods of time, which in turn further increases the burden on their eyes. For this reason, AUO has exclusively developed A.R.T. (Advanced Reflectionless Technology) eye protection technology with anti-glare and anti-reflection features. Focusing on the needs of content creators, graphic producers, and other types of workers, AUO launched the world's first 32-inch 8K professional editing monitor panel that allows users to see image details without being disturbed by ambient light reflections when drawing, making videos, or viewing photos. In addition, we have created different innovative values in different field applications in our A.R.T. eye protection technology. In the medical field, for example, AUO has also launched the world's first 21.3-inch A.R.T. panel for medical devices.

  • With the popularization of electric vehicles, cabin space is being freed up with the elimination of fuel engines and this in turn is accelerating the development of smart cockpits. As an integration expert and leading manufacturer of automotive display interfaces, AUO has insight into the trends of next-generation automotive applications. These include product specs calling for high brightness, high contrast, wide color gamut, fast response speed, and a high degree of reliability. At the same time, cutting-edge display technologies are being introduced into various automotive display devices, such as large-size lamination integrated with in-screen fingerprint recognition and Mini LED backlight, in order to comprehensively upgrade the driving experience.

  • Demand is flourishing for advanced medical imaging and highly integrated medical information in the smart healthcare field. AUO has cooperated with ecosystem partners to launch an operating room imaging integration solution and took the lead in launching high-end 3D surgical display solutions that allow surgeons to view stereoscopic images with in-depth information during surgery. Moreover, a 4K naked-eye 3D display panel used in the operating room that is equipped with an eye tracking system exclusively developed by AUO allows doctors to view clear 3D images from all angles without the need to wear glasses during surgery.

  • In the field of smart transportation, TARTAN products can be customized into various sizes without space constraints. In addition to being installed in long and narrow or leftover spaces in a train carriage, these displays also provide a variety of options for different train models and can be applied to flexible space configurations that are centered on passenger needs and are convenient for office work and carrying bicycles.

Looking forward to 2022, the structure of the industry will continue to change. From the supply side, the growth rate of production capacity has slowed down. In addition, there are still problems with supply chains and shortages in materials, hence effective production capacity is limited. From the demand side, demand for consumer products is weak and momentum has shifted to commercial and niche market products. Overall, demand is expected to return to the normal seasonality that was seen before the pandemic. Since the Russian-Ukrainian war began, however, rising component prices and rising inflation have impacted the global industrial economy as well as supply chains. The Company will carefully assess the corresponding impact on operations in 2022.

AUO has been promoting a biaxial transformation strategy over the past few years, and its results can now gradually be seen:

I. Go Premium:

  • The Company has continued to invest in premium and high-value production capacities in recent years, adjusting our product mix and increasing the proportion of high value-added products. At present, high value-added products contribute 50% of revenues.

  • Such products are relatively stable in terms of demand and profitability in comparison with commodity products. Because of this, the recent market volatility has had relatively minor impact on the Company's operations, and in turn has allowed AUO to hand in an outstanding report card for 2021.

  • II. Go Vertical:

  • The Company will continue to focus on display technology while devoting attention to diversified applications in five fields, namely: smart healthcare, smart manufacturing, smart education and entertainment, smart retail, and smart transportation. Starting from panels and combining hardware systems, software, and solutions, and by applying field management, this approach is expected to create several times the value as compared to the pure panel business.

  • Field operations of the non-pure panel business do not currently contribute substantially to revenues, but they should grow rapidly and become AUO's growth engine in the future. The associated mid- and long-term revenue contribution targets are more than 20%.

Becoming an outstanding sustainable enterprise has always been the Company’s core goal. In order to be in line with international trends, AUO has linked SDGs to 2025 CSR targets, thereby allowing ESG to develop in a balanced way. Taiwan faced severe drought conditions in 2021, and the Company optimized its water usage efficiency through continuous improvements in smart manufacturing. Our overall process water recovery rate increased to nearly 95%, and we obtained the first ISO 46001 water resource efficiency management system certification in Taiwan. In this way, we have balanced both our competitiveness and the environment. Addressing global trends toward carbon reduction, AUO has engaged in active deployment in this area and passed a review by the Science Based Targets (SBT) initiative. Furthermore, we have moved along the path of reducing total carbon emissions year by year. This year, we also officially became a member of RE100, a global renewable energy initiative, and pledged to use 100% renewable energy by 2050 and work towards the goal of net zero. At the same time, on the basis of experience accumulated along the way, AUO will continue to strengthen its operational resilience and seek new business opportunities in coordination with the value chain. Elsewhere, in regard to the promotion of corporate sustainability in 2021, AUO has been selected as a constituent company of the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index for the 12th consecutive year and has earned an MSCI ESG Rating of "A." Furthermore, the Company continues to place in the top 5% of corporate governance evaluations by the Taiwan Stock Exchange. In terms of ESG appraisal, AUO has also demonstrated many outstanding performances and won several honors including recognition among “The Most Prestigious Sustainability Awards-Top Ten Domestic Corporate” by the Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards; earning a National Enterprise Environmental Protection Award; and joining the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index.

The Company’s financial health has tended to be stronger as this strategy has gradually shown results. Moreover, the Company continues to focus on its operations to bring stable cash flows as it plans and promotes a stable shareholder return policy in the medium and long term. Total shareholder return to be distributed from 2022 to 2024 is expected to be approximately NT$55.77 billion (Note 1). The Company will enhance shareholder rights and corporate value in order to give back to the shareholders who have supported AUO for so long.

(Note 1) Methods of shareholder compensation are to include dividends, capital reductions, and returns of capital reserves with one or a combination of these methods being paid in cash. Actual amounts and methods of distribution will be submitted to the Board of Directors or Shareholders' Meeting for resolution in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. In 2022, a cash dividend of NT$9.58 billion will be issued as well as a cash capital reduction of NT$19.25 billion. A total of NT$28.82 billion will thus be distributed in 2022, with the remainder to be distributed in 2023 and 2024. Actual distribution amount per share is to be calculated according to the amount of each shareholder's compensation and the number of shares eligible to participate at the time of distribution.

Note:The collective shareholdings were shown as of April 19, 2022, the first date of local book-close period for the 2022 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting.

Reason of continuing to nominate Mr. Chin-Bing (Philip) Peng who has served consecutively as independent director for three consecutive terms as independent director of the Company:

In response to the panel industry cycle, the challenges of the rapidly changing of new applications and long-term development strategy, the members of the Board of Directors need to have both experience and appropriate rotation. The Company evaluates that under the Board structure with the independent directors exceeding one-half of the total director seats, the turnover of the independent directors of each term should not exceed half the seats.

Mr. Chin-Bing (Philip) Peng has rich experience in financial accounting, financial investment, business management and technology industry, which will fully contribute to the Company’s strategy, planning and post-investment management of two-axis transformational investments. In order to meet the Company’s strategic transformation, long-term development needs and the overall diversification of the members of the Board of Directors, it is proposed to nominate Mr. Peng as an independent director to continue to provide supervision and professional advice to the Board of Directors.

At the same time, the Company will review the independence of independent directors each year, regularly conduct internal and external director performance evaluation and plan director training to enhance the independence, professionalism and effectiveness of the overall Board of Directors.

Attachment 4

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of AU Optronics Corp.:

Opinion

We have audited the parent company only financial statements of AU Optronics Corp. (“the Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity, and statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and 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, 2021 and 2020, and its financial performance and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (“the Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 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 of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

  1. Impairment of long-term non-financial assets (including goodwill)

Refer to Note 4(16) “Impairment – non-financial assets”, Note 5(1) and Note 5(2) “Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation and assumption uncertainty”, Note 6(8) “Property, plant and equipment”, Note 6(9) “Lease arrangements” and Note 6(11) “Intangible assets” to the parent company only financial statements.

-19-

==> picture [91 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

Description of key audit matter:

The Company operates in an industry with high investment costs, has goodwill through the acquisition of subsidiaries, and may experience volatility in response to changes in the external market; hence, it is important to assess the impairment of its long-term non-financial assets (including goodwill). The impairment assessment includes identifying cash-generating units, determining a valuation model, determining significant assumptions, and computing recoverable amounts. With the complexity of the impairment assessment process and the involvement of significant management judgment regarding assumptions used, this is one of the key areas our audit focused on.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures included understanding and testing the Company’s controls surrounding the impairment assessment and testing process; assessing whether there are impairment indications for the identified cash-generating units of the Company and its related assets; understanding and assessing the appropriateness of the valuation model used by the management in the impairment assessment and the significant assumptions used to determine related assets’ future cash flows projection, useful lives, and weighted-average cost of capital; retrospectively reviewing the accuracy of assumptions used in prior-period estimates and performing a sensitivity analysis of key assumptions and results; in addition to the above audit procedures, appointing specialists to evaluate the appropriateness of the weighted-average cost of capital used and related assumptions; performing an inquiry of the management and identifying any event after the balance sheet date if able to affect the results of the impairment assessment; and assessing the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures of its policy on impairment of noncurrent non-financial assets and other related disclosures.

2. Revenue recognition

Refer to Note 4(19) “Revenue from contracts with customers” and Note 6(18) “Revenue from contracts with customers” to the parent company only financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

Revenue is recognized when the control over a product has been transferred to the customer as specified in each individual contract with customers. The Company recognizes revenue depending on the various sales terms in each individual contract with customers to ensure the performance obligation has been satisfied by transferring control over a product to a customer. In addition, the Company operates in an industry in which revenue is considered to be complex in determining the timing of revenue recognition. Consequently, this is one of the key areas our audit focused on.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures included understanding and testing the Company’s controls surrounding revenue recognition; assessing whether appropriate revenue recognition policies are applied through comparison with accounting standards and understanding the Company’s main revenue types, its related sales agreements, and sales terms; on a sample basis, inspecting contracts with customers or customers’ orders and assessing whether the accounting treatment of the related contracts (including sales terms) is applied appropriately; performing a test of details of sales revenue and understanding the rationale for any identified significant sales fluctuations and any significant reversals of revenue through sales discounts and sales returns which incurred within a certain period before or after the balance sheet date; and assessing the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures of its revenue recognition policy and other related disclosures.

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

In preparing the parent company only 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 (inclusive of 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 generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.

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

  1. Identified and assessed 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. Obtained 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. Evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Concluded 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 parent company only 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. Evaluated the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. 21 -

==> picture [91 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

  1. Obtained sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicated 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 identified during our audit.

We also provided those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicated 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 determined those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Yu, Chi Lung and Yu, Wan Yuan.

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of AU Optronics Corp.:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of AU Optronics Corp. and its subsidiaries (“the Company”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity, and consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, 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 Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for each of the years then ended, in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), International Accounting Standards (“IAS”), Interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) or the former Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (“the Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 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 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, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

1. Impairment of long-term non-financial assets (including goodwill)

Refer to Note 4(15) “Impairment – non-financial assets”, Note 5(1) and Note 5(2) “Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation and assumption uncertainty”, Note 6(10) “Property, plant and equipment”, Note 6(11) “Lease arrangements” and Note 6(13) “Intangible assets” to the consolidated financial statements.

  • 28 -

==> picture [91 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

Description of key audit matter:

The Company operates in an industry with high investment costs, has goodwill through the acquisition of subsidiaries, and may experience volatility in response to changes in the external market; hence, it is important to assess the impairment of its long-term non-financial assets (including goodwill). The impairment assessment includes identifying cash-generating units, determining a valuation model, determining significant assumptions, and computing recoverable amounts. With the complexity of the impairment assessment process and the involvement of significant management judgment regarding assumptions used, this is one of the key areas our audit focused on.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures included understanding and testing the Company’s controls surrounding the impairment assessment and testing process; assessing whether there are impairment indications for the identified cash-generating units of the Company and its related assets; understanding and assessing the appropriateness of the valuation model used by the management in the impairment assessment and the significant assumptions used to determine related assets’ future cash flows projection, useful lives, and weighted-average cost of capital; retrospectively reviewing the accuracy of assumptions used in prior-period estimates and performing a sensitivity analysis of key assumptions and results; in addition to the above audit procedures, appointing specialists to evaluate the appropriateness of the weighted-average cost of capital used and related assumptions; performing an inquiry of the management and identifying any event after the balance sheet date if able to affect the results of the impairment assessment; and assessing the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures of its policy on impairment of noncurrent non-financial assets and other related disclosures.

2. Revenue recognition

Refer to Note 4(18) “Revenue from contracts with customers” and Note 6(21) “Revenue from contracts with customers” to the consolidated financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

Revenue is recognized when the control over a product has been transferred to the customer as specified in each individual contract with customers. The Company recognizes revenue depending on the various sales terms in each individual contract with customers to ensure the performance obligation has been satisfied by transferring control over a product to a customer. In addition, the Company operates in an industry in which revenue is considered to be complex in determining the timing of revenue recognition. Consequently, this is one of the key areas our audit focused on.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures included understanding and testing the Company’s controls surrounding revenue recognition; assessing whether appropriate revenue recognition policies are applied through comparison with accounting standards and understanding the Company’s main revenue types, its related sales agreements, and sales terms; on a sample basis, inspecting contracts with customers or customers’ orders and assessing whether the accounting treatment of the related contracts (including sales terms) is applied appropriately; performing a test of details of sales revenue and understanding the rationale for any identified significant sales fluctuations and any significant reversals of revenue through sales discounts and sales returns which incurred within a certain period before or after the balance sheet date; and assessing the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures of its revenue recognition policy and other related disclosures.

Other Matters

AU Optronics Corp. has additionally prepared its parent-company-only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, on which we have issued an unmodified audit opinion and an unmodified audit opinion with the paragraph on emphasis of matter, respectively.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, 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 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 (inclusive of the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

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

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

  1. Identified and assessed 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. Obtained 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. Evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Concluded 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 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 Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. 30 -

==> picture [91 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

  1. Evaluated 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.

  2. Obtained sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company 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 communicated 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 identified during our audit.

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

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Yu, Chi-Lung and Yu, Wan-Yuan.
