I. 2024 Business Report

Aurora Corporation

2024 Business Report

Looking back at 2024, the global economy was affected by geopolitical issues such as the Russo-Ukrainian War, the Israel–Palestine conflict, political instability in Europe, the USA, and Japan, as well as the impact of high inflation and rising prices. The economic recovery remained slow. In addition, although Taiwan’s economy recovered slowly, Mainland China faced unfavorable economic factors such as difficulties in the real estate market and sluggish domestic demand and investment, which caused its economy to continue to decline. These impacted the Company’s business and the overall operating performance in Mainland China. Nevertheless, the Company grasped the business opportunities in the digital and sustainable transformation, strengthened the operations, improved the processes, reduced the costs, and mitigated the impact of external factors. The 2024 business results and the 2025 business plan overview are as follows:

I. 2024 business results

(I) Actual operating results

The consolidated operating revenue in 2024 was NTD 11,292,746 thousand, the net profit after tax attributable to the parent company was NTD 958,645 thousand, and the post-tax earnings per share was NTD 4.26. The comparison of income between the most recent two years is as follows:

Unit: NTD 1,000

Item/year Item/year 2024 2023 Increase

Post-tax earnings per share

In terms of consolidated financial structure, both current ratio of 193% and the debt (to asset) ratio of 51% are sound.

(II) Review of business performance

  • The Company’s main business performance in 2024 includes the following:

  • ⚫ The overall profit of the business in Taiwan remained steady and growing.

  • ⚫ The ESG Report was prepared and implemented to strengthen the ESG sustainability.

  • ⚫ The OA business in Mainland China officially launched the self-owned brand “Aurora Secured Printing” to solve the problem of office document printing. This includes printing and document management solutions, creates competitive differentiation with the strategy of “Soft with Hard” to help customers improve their office efficiency, enhance their stickiness and create long-term stable revenue.

  • ⚫ The direct sales performance of the Aurora Furniture in Mainland China was stabilized basically with an expanding and growing distribution performance. Aurora Furniture will continue to develop new products and accumulate effective patents, and pass the reevaluation under the Chinese High-tech Enterprise Certification, Shanghai Technology Enterprise Center, and Shanghai Design Innovation Center.

II. 2025 business plan overview and future development strategy

  • (I) Estimation of the impact of external competition and overall economic environment and countermeasures

  • According to the Directorate General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics and

  • other major institutions, the overall domestic economy is expected to grow steadily in 2025. However, global and domestic economic growth will be challenging due to negative factors such as the intensification of protectionism and trade barriers, ongoing geopolitical conflicts, and uncertainties regarding economic and trade policies in Europe and the USA. It is expected that the economic expansion will be fraught with uncertainties.

Despite the uncertainties in the economy, the Company will continue to streamline the organization and optimize business operations to reduce costs and increase efficiency in coping with external challenges. In recent years, the demand for digital transformation and low-carbon ESG transformation across various industries continues to grow. We will continue to focus on the market of our core business, incorporate ESG sustainability into the management process and business model, improve service capabilities, strengthen the application of digital technologies such as big data, AI, and IoT, assist customers with digital transformation, build an environmentally friendly, healthy, intelligent, and highly efficient office environment, and continue to enhance our overall competitiveness.

(II) Main business development strategy

  1. OA business: The Company is committed to becoming a leader in the “Office for the Future” and providing customers with intelligent, highly efficient, energysaving, carbon-reducing, environmentally friendly and sustainable office

  • (2) Use IoT and cloud platforms and intelligent customer service centers to create innovative service capabilities.

  • Furniture business: The Company is committed to creating a healthy, dynamic and sustainable way of office life for customers, and is dedicated to becoming a leading brand that is trustworthy in furniture and space planning.

  • (1) Cover three major fields of office, education, and healthcare, integrate marketing, services, R&D, production, logistics, and supply chains to maximize the benefits of resources, implement ESG, and create a green ecological chain for the industry.

  • (3) Strengthen R&D and design capabilities, optimize process quality, and provide innovative logistics, and improve the overall enterprise service capabilities.

III. Conclusion

Despite the difficulties in the overall market environment in 2024, with the support of the shareholders and the endeavors of the employees, we will minimize the impact on profitability and establish a solid foundation for transformation and development in the future. Looking ahead to 2025, the Company will adhere to the corporate philosophy of “customer satisfaction, associate contentment, giving back to society, and pursuing sustainable business” to build a new ESG business model through innovative and practical actions, create differentiation, bring higher value to shareholders, customers, employees, and society, fulfill corporate social responsibility, exert a positive influence, and strive to achieve the ESG objectives.

Independent Auditors' Report

To Aurora Corporation:

Opinions

Aurora Corporation's Parent Company Only Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, in addition to the Parent Company Only Statements of Comprehensive Income, Parent Company Only Statements of Changes in Equity, Parent Company Only Statements of Cash Flows, and Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (including a summary of significant accounting policies) from January 1 to December 31, 2024 and 2023, have been audited by the CPAs.

In our opinion, the Parent Company Only Financial Statements mentioned above have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers in all material aspects, and are considered to have fairly expressed the parent company only financial conditions of Aurora Corporation as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, as well as the parent company only financial performance and parent company only cash flows from January 1 to December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Basis for Opinions

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of Aurora Corporation in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China ("The Norm"), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Norm. 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 Aurora Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2024. 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.

Key audit matters for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements of Aurora Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2024 are stated as follows:

Sales revenue and sales revenue of key subsidiaries accounted for using the equity method.

The main businesses of Aurora Corporation and its key subsidiaries accounted for using the equity method include the trade and lease of Multi-Functional Photocopiers (MFPs) and sales of system furniture. Printers and revenue from sales of system furniture in Taiwan, in particular, are material in nature for the overall financial statements. The main risk lies in whether revenue actually occurs. Accordingly, we identify the risk of revenue recognition arising from fraud as a key audit matter in accordance with the Statements on Auditing Standards in relation to significant risk.

For the accounting policies related to revenue recognition, please refer to Note IV (XIV).

10

We understood and tested the effectiveness of the design and implementation of internal controls in the recognition of sales revenue. We have also selected appropriate samples from the sales details, reviewed the original contracts, documents and customs declaration forms from external forwarders or signed by customers to check whether the recipients are the trading parties, and reviewed whether there is a significant amount of return and allowance subsequent to the balance sheet date to confirm whether there is any material misstatement of sales revenue.

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

To ensure that the Parent Company Only Financial Statements do not contain material misstatements caused by fraud or errors, the management is responsible for preparing prudent Parent Company Only Financial Statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and for preparing and maintaining necessary internal control procedures pertaining to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements.

In preparing the Parent Company Only Financial Statements, the management is responsible for assessing Aurora Corporation's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to the going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the management either intends to liquidate Aurora Corporation 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 Aurora Corporation'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 misstatements, 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 financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the accounting principles in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism. We also perform the following tasks:

  1. Identify and evaluate the risk of material misstatements due to fraud or error in the Parent Company Only Financial Statements; design and carry out appropriate countermeasures for the evaluated risk; and obtain sufficient and appropriate evidence as the basis for our audit 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 controls 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 internal controls of Aurora Corporation.

  3. Assess the appropriateness of the accounting policies adopted by the management, as well as the reasonableness of their accounting estimates and relevant disclosures.

11

  1. Conclude on the appropriateness of the 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 Aurora Corporation's ability to operate 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 Aurora Corporation to cease to continue as a going concern.

  2. Evaluate the overall expression, structure and contents of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (including relevant Notes), and whether the Parent Company Only Financial Statements fairly present relevant transactions and items.

  3. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within Aurora Corporation to express an opinion on the Parent Company Only Financial Statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the audit and for expressing an opinion on the Parent Company Only Financial Statements of Aurora Corporation.

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.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine the key audit matters of Aurora Corporation's Parent Company Only Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. 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.

Independent Auditors' Report

To Aurora Corporation:

Opinions

Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries' Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, in addition to the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (including a summary of significant accounting policies) from January 1 to December 31, 2024 and 2023, have been audited by the CPAs.

In our opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements mentioned above have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, as well as the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), International Accounting Standards (IAS), law and regulation reviews and their announcements recognized and announced by the Financial Supervisory Commission in all material aspects, and are considered to have fairly expressed the consolidated financial conditions of Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, as well as the consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flows from January 1 to December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Basis for Opinions

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards. 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 Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China ("The Norm"), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Norm. 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 Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries 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.

Key audit matters for the Consolidated Financial Statements of Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2024 are stated as follows:

Sales revenue

The main businesses of Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries include the trade and lease of MultiFunctional Photocopiers (MFPs) and sales of system furniture. Electronic devices and income from sales of system furniture in Taiwan, in particular, are material in nature for the overall financial statements.

The main risk lies in whether revenue actually occurs. Accordingly, we identify the risk of revenue recognition arising from fraud as a key audit matter in accordance with the Statements on Auditing Standards in relation to significant risk.

19

For the accounting policies related to revenue recognition, please refer to Note IV (XIV). We understood and tested the effectiveness of the design and implementation of internal controls in the recognition of sales revenue. We have also selected appropriate samples from the sales details, reviewed the original contracts, documents and customs declaration forms from external forwarders or signed by customers to check whether the recipients are the trading parties, and reviewed whether there is a significant amount of return and allowance subsequent to the balance sheet date to confirm whether there is any material misstatement of sales revenue.

Other Matters

We have also audited the Parent Company Only Financial Statements of Aurora Corporation for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, on which we have issued an unqualified opinion.

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

To ensure that the Consolidated Financial Statements do not contain material misstatements caused by fraud or errors, the management is responsible for preparing prudent Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, as well as the IFRS, IAS, law and regulation reviews and their announcements recognized and announced by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for preparing and maintaining necessary internal control procedures pertaining to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, the management is responsible for assessing Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries' ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to the going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the management either intends to liquidate Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries 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 Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries' 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 misstatements, 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 and audit conducted in accordance with the accounting principles 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 financial statements.

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

  1. Identify and evaluate the risk of material misstatements due to fraud or error in the Consolidated Financial Statements; design and carry out appropriate countermeasures for the evaluated risk; and obtain sufficient and appropriate evidence as the basis for thour audit 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.

20

  1. Obtain an understanding of internal controls 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 internal controls of Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries.

  2. Assess the appropriateness of the accounting policies adopted by the management, as well as the reasonableness of their accounting estimates and relevant disclosures.

  3. Conclude on the appropriateness of the 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 Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries' ability to operate as a going concern.

  4. 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 Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall expression, structure and contents of the Consolidated Financial Statements (including relevant Notes), and whether the Consolidated Financial Statements fairly present relevant transactions and items.

  6. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries to express an opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the audit and for expressing an opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements of Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries.

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.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine the key audit matters of Aurora Corporation and its subsidiaries' Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. 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.
