Independent Auditors’ Report (translated from Chinese)

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of AVer Information Inc.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only financial statements of Aver Information Inc. (the Company), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 , and related statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity, cash flows, and notes to parent company only financial statements (including summary of significant accounting policies) from January 1 to December 31, 2020 and 2019. The independent auditors have completed the audits of these statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AVer Information Inc. as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and its financial performance and its cash flows from January 1 to December 31, 2020 and 2019 in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. 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 AVer Information Inc. in accordance with the Norm of the 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 of AVer Information Inc. for the fiscal year of 2020. 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 AVer Information Inc.’s parent company only financial statements for the fiscal year of 2020 as stated as follows:

Subsidiary by investment using the equity method - Assessment on sales allowances of AVer Information Inc. (USA)

AVer Information Inc. (USA), a subsidiary of AVer Information Inc. invested by the Company using the equity method, has distributors in the Americas as its main customers. In order to promote sales and expand the market, Aver Information Inc. (USA) and its main distributors have entered multiple contracts on sales discounts (allowances). Since calculation methods applied to respective contracts vary by product or sales achievement; bases of the calculations also involve the risks of estimation uncertainty of expected sales amount, therefore, the assessment of the sales discounts (allowances) has been identified as a key auditor matter.

We obtained an understanding of the methods applied to sales discounts (allowances) by AVer Information Inc. (USA), a subsidiary of AVer Information Inc. invested by the Company using the equity method, inquired the basis of management’s estimation on expected sales amount, and obtained documents to assess the reasonableness thereof. Furthermore, we inspected AVer Information Inc. (USA)’s contracts of sales discounts (allowances), checked whether the sales discount (allowance) calculations were implemented in accordance with AVer Group’s established policies, verified the actual payment requests by the distributors in order to assess the reasonableness of the sales discount (allowance) estimations.

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

  • 3 -

Financial Reports by Securities Issuers to maintain the internal control as management determines 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 AVer Information Inc.’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 members of the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing AVer Information Inc.’s financial reporting process.

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

The objectives of our audit are to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the parent company only financial statements are free from material misstatement as a whole, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinions. 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 in the parent company only financial statements. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also conduct the following tasks:

  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 in response to those risks; and obtain audit evidences that are sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinions. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional

  2. 4 -

omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  1. 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 AVer Information Inc.’s internal control.

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

  3. 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 of conditions that may cast significant doubt on AVer Information Inc.’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 AVer Information Inc. to cease to continue as a going concern.

  4. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements (including relevant notes), and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  5. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within AVer Information Inc. to express an opinion on the parent company only 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).

  • 5 -

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 (including related safeguards where applicable).

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements of AVer Information Inc. for the fiscal year of 2020. 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 Janice Wang and Jamie Lee.

  1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (1) Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC.

  • (2) Basis of preparation

The parent company only financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments which are mentioned at fair value.

The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the relevant inputs are observable and based on the significance thereof, are described as follows:

  1. Level 1 inputs: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are available on measurement date;

  2. Level 2 inputs: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

  3. Level 3 inputs: unobservable inputs for an asset or liability. The Company processes inputs of investment in subsidiaries using the equity method in preparation the financial statements. In order to maintain the profit and loss, other comprehensive income and equity, to be the same as the contributed profit and loss of the Company’s owner, other comprehensive income, and equity of the current year in the consolidated financial statements, certain accounting treatment differences between the individual basis and the consolidated basis are adjustments to “investments

using the equity method,” “fraction of profit or loss of the equity method subsidiaries,” and relevant equity items.

  • (3) Classification of current and noncurrent assets and liabilities

    • Current assets include:
  • Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting period; and

  • Cash and cash equivalents (excluding those restricted by exchange of settlement of liabilities occurred beyond 12 months after the end of the reporting period)

Current liabilities include:

  1. Liability held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  2. Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; and

  3. Liabilities for which the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current assets or current liabilities are classified as noncurrent assets or noncurrent liabilities respectively.

  • (4) Foreign currencies

In preparing the individual financial statements of the Company, transactions in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency (i.e., foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.

At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from the settlement of translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arouse.

Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when their fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising from the

  • 20 -

retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from the retranslated of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are classified as other comprehensive income; in which cases, the exchange differences are also recognized in other comprehensive income.

Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction, not retranslated.

For the purpose of presenting the parent company only financial statements, the functional currencies of assets and liabilities of its foreign operations (including subsidiaries that operate in countries or use currencies different from the Company) are translated into the New Taiwan dollars (presentation currency), at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting currency translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

If the Company disposes of all equity of the foreign operations, all accumulated exchange differences related to the foreign operations will be reclassified to profit or loss.

  • (5) Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials, finished goods, and work in progress. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar to related items. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at the weighted-average cost.

  • (6) Investment in subsidiaries

The Company processes investments in subsidiaries using the equity method.

A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the Company.

  • 21 -

Under the equity method, an investment in a subsidiary is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter in the carrying amount to recognize the Company’s share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the subsidiary as well as the distribution received. The Company also recognized its share in the changes in the equity of subsidiaries.

Changes in the Company’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Company losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the carrying amount of the subsidiary and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.

When the Company’s fraction of loss in subsidiaries is equal or more than its equity in subsidiaries (including the carrying amount of the subsidiary and other long-term equity that is essentially part of the Company’s net investment in the subsidiary), the loss is recognized based on the shareholding ratio.

When the Company assesses impairment, the cash-generating unit is taken into account and, the recoverable amount and carrying amount are compared as a whole in the financial report. If the recoverable amount of the asset increase subsequently, a reversal of an impairment loss is recognized as gains, except the carrying amount of the asset after the reversal of an impairment loss, shall not exceed the carrying amount of the asset less designated amortization, when the impairment loss of such asset is not recognized.

When the Company loses control of a subsidiary, any retained investment of the former subsidiary is measured at the fair value at that date, the fair value of the retain investment, differences between any disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investments at that date shall be recognized in the profit or loss of the current period. The Company shall account for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary on the same basis required if the Company had directly disposed of the related assets and liabilities.

  • 22 -

When the Company transacts with its subsidiaries, unrealized profits and losses resulting from the downstream transactions with the subsidiaries are eliminated in the Company’s parent company only financial statements. When the Company transacts with its subsidiaries, profits and losses resulting from the upstream and side stream transactions with the subsidiaries are recognized in the Company’s parent company only financial statements only to the extent of the items unrelated to the Company’s equity in the subsidiaries.

(7)

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost after accumulated depreciation.

Except for freehold land which is not depreciated, the depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recognized using the straight-line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately within its useful life. The Company will review the estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods for at least once at the end of each reporting period, with the effects of any changes in the estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.

On derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

(8)

Investment properties

Investment properties are properties held to earn rental and/or for capital appreciation. Investment properties also include land held for a currently undetermined future use.

Investment properties are initially measured at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairments.

Investment properties are recognized using the straight-line method for depreciation.

  • 23 -

On derecognition of an investment property, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is included in profit or loss.

(9) Intangible assets

Computer software costs are initially measured at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, computer software costs are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairments. Intangible assets are recognized using the straight-line method for depreciation within the useful life. The Company reviews the estimated useful lives, residual values and amortization methods at least once at the end of each reporting period, with the effects of any changes in the accounting estimates on a prospective basis.

Useful lives of intangible assets are calculated using the following values:

Computer software 2 years

On derecognition of an intangible asset, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is included in profit or loss of the current period.

(10) Impairment of property, plant and equipment, right-of-use asset and intangible assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews its property, plant and equipment, right-of-use asset and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset of cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the

  • 24 -

asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss.

When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the corresponding asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimation of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount that have been determined having no impairment loss (less amortization or depreciation) recognized on the asset of cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss. (11) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the parent company only financial statements when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

  1. Financial assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.

  • (1) Measurement categories

Financial assets of the Company are classified into the following categories: financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at amortized cost.

  • A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value enforced through profit or loss. Financial assets measured at

  • 25 -

fair value enforced through profit or loss include investments in equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) and investments in debt instruments at amortized cost or through FVTOCI that do not meet the category criteria.

Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Dividends and interests generated from the financial assets are recognized in other income and interest income respectively. Further measurements on interests or losses are recognized in other gains and losses. Please refer to Note 23 for the method of determining the fair value.

B. Financial assets at amortized cost

If investment assets of the Company meet the following two conditions, the investment assets are categorized as financial assets at amortized cost:

  • a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and

  • b. The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets (including cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable at amortized cost, and other receivables and refundable deposits) are measured at amortized cost, which equals the gross carrying amount determined using the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.

Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of such a financial asset.

  • 26 -

A financial asset is credit impaired when the significant financial difficulty, breach of contract, possible bankruptcy filings, or other financial restructuring, or disappearance of an active market of the financial asset due to financial difficulty, of the issuer or the borrower has occurred.

Cash equivalents include time deposits with original maturities within 3 months from the date of acquisition, which are highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.

  • (2) Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost (including accounts receivable) at the end of each reporting period.

The Company always recognizes lifetime expected credit losses (ECL) for accounts receivable.

Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. The 12-month ECLs represent the portion of ECLs that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. In contrast, lifetime ECLs represent the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

For internal credit risk management purposes, without taking into account any collateral held by the Company, the Company determines the following conditions indicate that a financial asset is in default:

  • A. Internal or external information shows that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors

  • 27 -

B. Payments from the debtor are overdue for more than 180 days, unless there is reasonable and corroborating information to indicate that the deferred default basis is more appropriate.

The impairment loss of all financial assets is recognized in profit or loss by a reduction in their carrying amounts through a loss allowance account.

  • (3) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.

On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss.

2. Financial liabilities

  • (1) Subsequent measurement

All financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except the following conditions:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are mainly held for trading. Financial liabilities held for trading are measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from remeasurement are recognized in other gains and losses. Please refer to Note 23 for the method of determining the fair value.

  • (2) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability derecognized consideration paid is recognized in profit or loss.

  1. Derivative financial instruments

  2. 28 -

Derivative instruments that the Company enters into are foreign exchange forward contracts in order to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks.

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into, and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss directly. When the fair value of derivative financial instruments is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; when the fair value of derivative financial instruments is negative, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.

(12) Provision of liability

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event. It is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the discounted cash flows of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. A provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation.

Warranty

Warranty obligations guarantee that the product complies with agreed-upon specifications, are measured at the best estimate of expenses by the management to settle the Company’s obligation, and recognized when relevant products are recognized.

(13) Revenue recognition

The Company identifies contracts with customers, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognizes revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.

  • 29 -

  • Revenue from the sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods comes from sales of computer system equipment, presentation and video conferencing systems. When the goods are delivered to the customer, because it is the time when the customer has full discretion over the price to sell the goods, right-of-use, and the primary responsibility for sales to future customers and bears the risks of obsolescence, the Company recognizes the income and trade receivables concurrently.

The Company does not recognize revenue on materials delivered to subcontractors because this delivery does not involve a transfer of control.

  1. Revenue from the rendering of services

Revenue from the rendering of services comes from the warranty service extension.

As the Company provides the warranty service extension, customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefits provided by the Company’s performance. Consequently, the related revenue is recognized when services are rendered monthly during the term of the warranty service provided.

(14) Leases

At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is (or contains) a lease.

  1. The Company as lessor

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of a lase transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Lease payments from operating leases, less any lease incentives, are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the relevant leases.

  • 30 -

2. The Company as lessee

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of a lease, except for the low-value asset leases and short-term leases accounted for which applies to a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the parent company only balance sheets.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease term.

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments (mainly the fixed payments). If the interest rate implicit in a lease can be readily determined, the lease payments are discounted using such interest rate. If the interest rate implicit in a lease cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate.

Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease terms. When there is a change in a lease term resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Company remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use assets. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero, any remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the parent company only balance sheets.

  • 31 -

(15) Employee benefits

  1. Short-term employee benefits

Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related services.

  1. Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as expenses when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.

  • (16) Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and the deferred tax.

  1. Current income tax

Income tax payable (recoverable) of the Company is based on taxable profit (loss) for the year determined according to the applicable tax laws of Republic of China.

According to the Income Tax Law in the Republic of China, an additional tax on unappropriated earnings is provided for in the year the shareholders approve to retain earnings.

Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.

  1. Deferred income tax

Deferred income tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit in the financial statements of each entity.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences, or purchases of machinery and equipment, and expenses of research and development, to the extent

  • 32 -

that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are recognized only to the extent, that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the assets to be recovered. A previous unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized as an increase of adjustment to the carrying amount, to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liabilities are settled or the assets are realized, based on the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

  1. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

  2. 33 -

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimation, and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The management will review the estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the current period in which the estimates are revised if the revisions affect only that period, or in the period of revisions and future periods if the revisions affect both current and future periods.

Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

Valuation of Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realized value, and the Company uses judgment and estimation to determine the net realizable value of inventory at the end of each reporting period. Due to the rapid technological changes, the Company estimates the net realizable value of inventory for fair wear and tear, obsolescence and unmarketable items at the end of the reporting period and then writes down the cost of inventories to net realizable value.

The net realizable value of inventory is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and disposal. The estimation of net realizable value was based on current market conditions, historical experience, and product demands in the specific future periods with product sales of a similar nature. Changes in market conditions may have a material impact on the estimation of the net realizable value.

The Company provides 30~90 days for the average credit period of sales of goods within which interests on the accounts receivable are waived. In order to minimize credit risks, the management of the Company has delegated a team responsible for determining credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that the follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate allowance is made for possible irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the management believes the Company’s credit risk was significantly reduced.

The Company measures the loss allowance for accounts receivable at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. The expected credit losses on accounts receivable are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to the past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor’s current financial position, adjusted for general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate. As the Company’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision for loss allowance based on the past due status is not further distinguished according to the Company’s different customer base. The Company estimates expected credit losses based on the number of days for which receivables are past due.

The Company has purchased credit insurance for the accounts receivable of major customers. The insurance-to-value ratio is 85% 90% of the approved limit of the buyer’s insured amount. When the expected credit loss rate is set based on the number of overdue days of the accounts receivable, the recoverable amount of the insurance has been considered.

The Company writes off accounts receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is experiencing severe financial difficulty, for example, that the counterpart is undergoing liquidation, and there is no realistic prospect of recovery of the receivable. For accounts receivables that have been written off, the Company will continue to engage in enforcement activity in attempt to

  • 37 -

recover the receivables which are due. When recoveries are made, they are recognized in profit or loss.

Loss allowances of accounts receivables of the Company based on the provision matrix are as follows:

If the Company offered to settle the employees’ compensation in cash or shares, the Company assumed that the entire amount of the compensation will be settled in shares, and the resulting potential shares were included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as the effect is dilutive. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the number of shares to be distributed to employees is resolved in the following year.

22. CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company manages its capital to ensure that all entities of the Company will be able to operate under the premises of going concerns and growth while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance.

The Company’s capital structure is composed of the net debt (i.e., total liabilities less cash and cash equivalents) and equity (i.e., capital, capital surplus, retained earnings, and other equity items) of the Company.

The Company has no other external capital requirements that need to be complied with.

23. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

  • (4) Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company manages its exposure to risks relating to the operations through market risk (including exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and other price risk), credit risk, and liquidity risk as the objective of its financial risk management. To reduce relevant financial risk, the Company identifies, assesses, and avoids the market uncertainties, in order to reduce the potentially adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance.

Before entering into significant transactions, approval process by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors must be carried out based on related standards and internal control procedures.

  1. Market risk

The primary financial risks of the Company’s activities exposed to are changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (1) below), interest rates (see (2) below), and the Company utilizes some derivative financial instruments (mainly forward foreign exchange contracts) to manage the related risks.

There has been no change to the Company’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which these risks are managed and measured.

  • (1) Foreign currency risk

The Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts to manage the foreign currency risk of accounts receivable that are

  • 54 -

not denominated in functional currency created from export sales. The carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of reporting period are set out in Note 28.

Sensitivity analysis

The Company is mainly influenced by the USD, EUR and JPY. The following table details the Company’s sensitivity to a 5% increase or decrease in the New Taiwan dollars (i.e., functional currency) against relevant foreign currencies. The positive number below indicates an increase in pre-tax profit associated with the functional currency depreciating 5% against the relevant currency; the aforementioned number but of negative value indicates a decrease in pre-tax profit associated with the functional currency strengthening 5% against the relevant currency.

December 31,

The Company is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk because of having bank deposits at floating interest rates.

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk for non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period.

If interest rates had been increased/decreased by 25 basis points and all other variables were held constant, the Company’s pre-tax profit for the fiscal years of 2020 and 2019 would increase/decrease by NT$3,412 thousand and NT$2,100 thousand, respectively.

(3) Other price risk

The Company is exposed to price risk due to having domestic fund beneficiary certificates.

Price sensitivity analysis

A sensitivity analysis is performed based on the equity price risk at the end of the reporting period.

  • 56 -

If equity prices had been increased/decrease by 0.5%, the Company’s pre-tax profit for the fiscal years of 2020 and 2019 would increase/decrease by NT$256 thousand and NT$255 thousand, respectively, as a result of the increase/decrease in fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

  1. Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company’s exposure to credit risk mainly arises from cash, bank deposits, receivables of the operating activities and other financial instruments created by investment activities.

Financial credit risk

The Company controls and manages its exposure to credit risk which pertained in every financial institute. Since the Company’s bank deposits are from creditworthy financial institutes, therefore, no significant credit risk was identified.

Business related credit risk

In order to reduce credit risk, the Company continuously assesses the financial position and historical transaction records of each customer through payment policies, except without requiring the counterparty to provide collateral or security. In order to reduce credit risk, the Company purchased the credit insurance for major customers on receivables. The insurance-to-value ratio is 85% 90% of the approved limit of buyer’s insured amount. In addition, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate allowance is made for possible irrecoverable amounts. Therefore, the management of the Company concluded that the Company does not have significant credit risk.

  • 57 -

The credit risk of the Company in 2020 by region mainly gathered in America, and accounted for 44% of total receivables as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 respectively.

3. Liquidity risk

The Company finances its operations and mitigates the effects of fluctuations in cash flows through controlling and maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents. The management of the Company monitors the utilization of bank financing amounts and ensures compliance with loan covenants, in order to manage liquidity risk. The Company has sufficient circulating capital to finance the due liabilities and the risk that the Company is unable to provide cash or other financial assets to settle financial liabilities, or to fulfill relevant obligations is not identified. Therefore, bank borrowing is not a significant source of liquidity to the Company.

As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had available un-utilized financing amount set out as following descriptions of the financing amounts in (2).

(1) Liquidity and interest rate risk tables

The following table details the Company’s remaining contractual maturities for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed upon repayment periods. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities from the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay.

Konze System Technology Co., Ltd. (KONZESYS) and the Company entered into a commissioning agreement for design and manufacture in 2016. KONZESYS did not fulfill the number quantity specified in the agreement within a year and the Company filed a lawsuit (hereinafter referred to as the “Dispute Case”) to demand the refund in accordance with the agreement in 2017. However, KONZESYS filed a countersuit. The Taiwan New Taipei District Court ruled to appoint the Taiwan Development & Research Academia of Economic & Technology (TEDR) to perform assessments on the disputed product function.

TEDR issued the assessment report in 2020 and the Taiwan New Taipei District Court dismissed the Company’s lawsuit and the provisional execution filing in December 2020, and adopted part of the counterclaim submitted by KONZESYS in ruling that the Company shall return KONZESYS the one-time engineering fee of NT$1,365 thousand. The Company has filed an appeal due to a disinterested judgment. The case is currently heard by the Taiwan High Court. If a favorable judgment is obtained by the Company in the second instance, the Company at most can demand KONZESYS for payments of goods, compensation for damage, and interest for the total of NT$5,094 thousand through compulsory enforcement; if a favorable judgment is obtained by KONZESYS in the second instance, KONZESYS at most can demand the Company for payments of goods, compensation for damage, and interest for the total of NT$4,526 thousand through compulsory enforcement. If the original judgment is upheld in the second instance, it shall be explained in the same way as the first instance judgment. At present, the case is pending on appeal and the outcome of the lawsuit cannot be predicted. Therefore, contingent liabilities cannot be estimated and there is no significant effect on the Company’s finance and business.
