Independent Auditors’ Report
To AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd.:
Audit Opinion
We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd., as at December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, 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 parent company only financial position of AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for the years then ended, and its individual financial performance and its individual cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers based on our audit results and the audit reports of other certified public accountants (CPAs) (refer to the section of “Other matters”).
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 the Company in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We are convinced that we have acquired enough and appropriate audit evidence to serve as the basis of audit opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 of AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the individual 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 Company’s individual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 are stated as follows:
Revenue recognition
The main source of revenue for AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. is the sales of machining centers. In 2023, the recognized revenue was NT$1,301,851 thousand, which accounted for about 83% of the total operating revenue. Since the sales locations include Taiwan, Mainland China, Italy and the United States, the sales terms vary by customers, the risks of ownership and the time of compensation transfer shall be determined in accordance with the terms of the customer’s orders or contracts, and the time and amount of revenue recognition can have a significant impact on the financial statements. Therefore, we have identified revenue recognition as one of the key audit matters.
For the accounting policies related to revenue recognition, please refer to Note IV to the parent company only financial statements.
We evaluated the reasonableness of the sales revenue recognition, performed the cut-off point test, and performed internal control tests to understand the design and implementation of the sales revenue recognition process and the related control system of AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. In addition, we conducted related control tests on the sales and collection cycles, sampled and checked the sales contracts to confirm the correctness of the information in the accounting system, performed reconciliations between the general ledger system and the sales system, and assessed whether the time of revenue recognition was in accordance with the relevant reporting regulations.
Evaluation of inventories
AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. mainly engages in the design, manufacture and sales of special machines, automation equipment and computer-controlled tool machines. As of December 31, 2023, the total inventories, allowance for market value decline and loss on obsolete and slow-moving inventories were NT$1,365,995 thousand and NT$356,980 thousand, respectively. Inventories of AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. are measured at cost and net realizable value. Allowance for market value decline and loss on obsolete and slow-moving inventories are allocated for inventories aged over a certain period of time or individually identified as obsolete. Due to the intense competition in the spare parts market and the varying speeds of obsolescence of different products, the risks of loss on decline in the market value or obsolete inventories are

relatively high. The net realizable values used for obsolete inventories and their evaluation usually involve subjective judgment and are therefore highly uncertain. Considering the significant impact of inventories and their allowance for market value decline and loss on obsolete and slow-moving inventories on financial statements, we have identified allowance for market value decline and loss on obsolete and slow-moving inventories as one of the key audit matters.
For the accounting policies related to inventories, please refer to Note IV to the parent company only financial statements; for significant accounting estimates and assumptions used in the evaluation of inventories, please refer to Note V to the parent company only financial statements.
We understood, evaluated, and tested the design and implementation of the internal control system related to inventory management, obtained the evaluation data on the lower of cost or net realizable value of inventories compiled by management authority, sampled and estimated the selling price information to the most recent sales records, and assessed the basis of management authority’s estimate of net realizable value and its reasonableness; obtained an inventory aging statement, and assessed the appropriateness of the policy on provision for allowance for market value decline and loss on obsolete and slow-moving inventories.
Other Matters - References to the Audits of Other CPAs
In the above parent company only financial statements, the financial statements of YAMA SEIKI USA, INC. and Huahan Leasing Co., Ltd., which are investments accounted for using equity method, were not audited by us, but were audited by other CPAs entrusted by the Company. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the balances of investments accounted for using equity method were NT$116,713 thousand and NT$109,850 thousand, respectively, which both accounted for 2% of the Company’s total assets. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the share of profit or loss of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using equity method were NT$7,178 thousand and NT$7,782 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 3% and 2% of the Company's net profit before tax, respectively.
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 the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is

==> picture [67 x 51] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [90 x 61] intentionally omitted <==
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 AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd.’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 AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. 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 the AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd.’s financial reporting process.
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatement may arise from fraud or error. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
I. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Therefore, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than the one resulting from error.
-
II. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd.’s internal control.

==> picture [90 x 61] intentionally omitted <==
-
III. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management level.
-
IV. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd.’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 AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
V. 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.
-
VI. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investee company accounted for using equity method to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of such investee company. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion on the parent company only financial statements.
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 those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements of AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. for the year ended December 31, 2023 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.

IV. Summary of Significant Accounting Polices
The summary of significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the parent company only financial statements are set out below. The following accounting policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented in the parent company only financial statements, except as described in Notes III and IV regarding accounting changes.
- 15 -
(I) Statement of compliance
The parent company only financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers”, International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations that came into effect as endorsed by the FSC.
(II) Basis of preparation
Except for the following significant items of balance sheet, this parent company only financial statement has been prepared at historical cost:
-
Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss;
-
Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income;
-
The net defined benefit liability is the fair value of pension fund assets less the present value of defined benefit obligations.
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, the equity method is adopted to the investments in subsidiaries and associates. For the purpose of making the current profit and loss, other comprehensive income and equity in this parent company only financial statement identical to those in the Company’s owner in the consolidated financial statements, several accounting treatment differences under individual and consolidated basis are adjusted into “Investments Accounted for Using Equity Method”, “Share of the Profit or Loss of Subsidiaries and Associates Accounted for Using the Equity Method”, and “Share of Other Comprehensive Income of Subsidiaries and Associates Accounted for Using Equity Method”.
(III) Functional currency and presentation currency
The Company uses the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates as the functional currency. The parent company only financial statements are presented in New Taiwan dollars, the Company’s functional currency. All financial information presented in New Taiwan dollars are in thousands of New Taiwan dollars.
(IV) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
-
Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets. All assets that are not classified as current assets are classified as non-current assets:
-
(1) Assets that are expected to be realized, or are intended to be sold or consumed within the normal business cycle;
-
16 -
-
(2) Assets held mainly for trading purposes;
-
(3) Assets that are expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or
-
(4) The asset is cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted assets and those that are to be exchanged or used to settle liabilities more than twelve months after the reporting period.
-
-
Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities. All liabilities that are not classified as current liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities:
-
(1) Liabilities that are expected to be settled within the normal business cycle;
-
(2) Liabilities held mainly for trading activities.
-
(3) Liabilities that are expected to be due for settlement within twelve months after the reporting period; or
-
(4) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
-
-
(V) Foreign currency transactions
When preparing the parent company only financial statements, traders in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency (foreign currency) are recognized by translation to the functional currency based on the exchange rate of the transaction day. At the end of the reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency based on the exchange rate of the transaction day; non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies and measured at fair value are translated into the functional currency based on the exchange rate on the day of the fair value measurement; non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies and measured at historical cost are translated into the functional currency based on the exchange rate of the transaction day. The exchange differences arising from translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
For purpose of preparing the parent company only financial statements, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations of the Company shall be translated to NTD by the
- 17 -
exchange rate on ending date of the reporting period; the income and expense items shall be translated to NTD at the average exchange rate of the current period, and the resulting exchange difference shall be recognized as other comprehensive profit or loss and accumulated as the translation difference in the financial statements of foreign operations under equity.
(VI) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash includes cash on hand and current deposits. Cash equivalents refer to short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Time deposits that meet the definition above and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes are classified as cash equivalents.
(VII) Financial instruments
Accounts receivable are initially recognized when they are incurred. All other financial assets and liabilities shall be recognized initially when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instruments. Financial assets (other than accounts receivable that do not contain significant financial components) or financial liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss shall be initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance. Accounts receivable that do not contain significant financial components shall be initially measured at transaction price.
1. Financial assets
At initial recognition, financial assets shall be classified as financial assets at amortized cost, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. The Company reclassifies all affected financial assets from the first day of the next reporting period only when there is a change in the business model for financial assets management.
- (1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost
Financial assets are measured at amortized cost when they meet all of the following criteria and are not designated as at fair value through profit or loss:
-
A. The financial assets are held under the business model with the purpose of collecting contractual cash flows.
-
18 -
-
B. The contract terms of the financial assets generate cash flow on a specific date, and such cash flow is solely for the payment of the principle and the interest on outstanding principle amount.
Such assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost based on the initially recognized amount plus or minus accumulated amortization calculated using the effective interest method, adjusted for any loss allowance. Interest income, foreign currency exchange gains and losses, and impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss at derecognition.
-
(2) Financial assets at FVTPL
-
Financial assets not classified as financial assets at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value through profit or loss, including derivative financial assets. The Company may irrevocably designate financial assets that qualify as financial assets at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss at the time of initial recognition in order to eliminate or materially reduce accounting mismatch. Such assets shall be measured at fair value subsequently, and their net gains or losses shall be recognized in profit or loss.
-
(3) Financial assets at FVTOCI
At initial recognition, the Company has made an irrevocable election to recognize subsequent changes in the fair value of equity instruments not held for trading in other comprehensive income. The above election is made on an instrument-by-instrument basis.
Investments in debt instruments are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income, foreign currency exchange gains and losses, and impairment losses calculated using the effective interest method are recognized in profit or loss, and the remaining net gains or losses are recognized in other comprehensive income. Upon derecognition, the cumulative amount in other comprehensive income shall be reclassified to profit or loss.
- 19 -
Investments in equity instruments are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividend income (unless it obviously represents the recovery of a portion of cost of investment) is recognized in profit or loss. The remaining net gains or losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss.
Dividend income from equity investments is recognized on the date when the Company has the right to receive the dividend (usually the ex-dividend date).
- (4) Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes loss allowance for expected credit losses on the financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, financial assets at amortized cost, notes and accounts receivable, other receivables, refundable deposits and other financial assets).
The loss allowance is measured at 12-month expected credit losses for the following financial assets, and at the lifetime expected credit losses of the other financial assets:
-
A. The credit risk of debt securities is determined to be low at the reporting date; and
-
B. The credit risks of other debt securities and bank deposits (i.e., the risk of default on financial instruments over the expected life) have not increased significantly since the initial recognition.
The loss allowances for accounts receivable and contract assets are measured at the amount of lifetime expected credit losses.
When determining whether the credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition, the Company has considered reasonable and provable information (which can be obtained without undue costs or inputs), including qualitative and quantitative information, and analyses based on the Company’s historical experience, credit assessment and forward-looking information. Lifetime expected credit losses result from all possible default events over the expected life of the financial instruments.
The 12-month expected credit losses are expected credit losses that result from possible default events within 12 months after the reporting date (or for shorter
- 20 -
periods, if the expected life of the financial instrument is less than 12 months). The maximum period for which expected credit losses are measured is the maximum contract period over which the Company is exposed to credit risk. Expected credit losses are weighted estimates of the probability of credit losses over the expected life of the financial instruments. Credit losses are measured at the present value of all cash shortfalls, which is the difference between the cash flows that the Company could receive under the contract and the cash flows that the Company expects to receive. Expected credit losses are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.
On each reporting date, the Company evaluates whether credit impairment occurs to the financial assets measured at amortized cost and debt securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Credit impairment occurs to a financial asset when one or more events that have an adverse effect on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset. Evidence proving that credit impairment occurs to a financial asset includes observable information about the following events:
-
A. Significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;
-
B. Defaults, such as delay or overdue for more than 90 days;
-
C. The Company has made concessions to the borrower that the Company would not consider otherwise for economic or contractual reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties;
-
D. The borrower is very likely to apply for bankruptcy or carry out other financial reorganization; or
-
E. The active market for the financial assets has disappeared due to financial difficulties.
The loss allowance for financial assets at amortized cost is deducted from the carrying amount of the assets. The loss allowance for investments in debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognized in other comprehensive income (without reducing the carrying amount of the asset), and the provision or reversal amount of loss allowance is recognized in profit or loss.
- 21 -
When the Company does not have a reasonable expectation of recovering all or part of a financial asset, the total carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced directly. The Company analyzes the timing and amount of offset on a case-by-case basis to determine whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Company expects that the offset amount will not be reversed significantly. However, the offset financial assets are still enforceable in order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovering overdue amounts.
- (5) Derecognition of financial assets
A financial assets will be derecognized only when the Company’s contractual rights to the cash flows from that asset are terminated, or when the financial asset is transferred and substantially all the risks and returns of ownership to that asset have been transferred to another entity, or when substantially all the risks and returns of ownership are neither transferred nor retained, and the Company does not retain control over that financial asset.
If the Company enters into a transaction to transfer a financial asset and retains all or substantially all of the risks and returns of ownership to the transferred asset, the financial asset will continue to be recognized on the balance sheet.
(VIII) Financial liabilities and equity instruments
-
Classification of liabilities and equity
-
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of financial liabilities and equity instruments.
-
Equity instruments
Equity instrument refers to any contract that recognizes the remaining interest of the Company after reducing all its liabilities from its assets. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of the cost of direct issue.
- Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities that are not held for trading and are not designated as at fair value through profit or loss (including notes payable, accounts payable and other payables) are measured at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs at
- 22 -
initial recognition; subsequently, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, and interest expenses not capitalized in the asset cost are included in non-operating income and expenses.
- Derecognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognized by the Consolidated Company when the contractual obligation is either discharged or canceled or expires.
The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the total consideration paid and payable (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss, and included in non-operating income and expenses.
- Mutual offset of financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and recognized in the balance sheet on a net basis only when the Consolidated Company has the legal right to do so and has the intention to settle on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
(IX) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories are stated at standard cost at ordinary times, and are adjusted to approximate weighted average cost at the end of the reporting period. Net realizable value is calculated as the estimated selling price less the costs to be incurred until completion and the selling expenses.
(X) Investments accounted for using equity method
Investments accounted for using equity method include subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures.
Associates are companies over which the Company exercises significant influence, but not subsidiaries or joint ventures. Significant influence refers to the power to participate in the investee’s financial and operating policy decisions, but not the power to control or jointly control such policy decisions.
In joint ventures, the Company and another entity engage in economic activities under joint control through a contractual agreement, meaning that strategic financial and operating decisions related to the joint venture must be made with the consensus of those sharing control. If another entity is created under a joint venture agreement in
- 23 -
which each of the joint venture controllers has an interest, that entity is a jointly controlled entity.
The business results and assets and liabilities of associates and joint ventures are included in the financial statements under the equity method, except for the assets classified as held for sale. Under the equity method, investments in associates and joint ventures are initially recognized at cost on the balance sheet and subsequently adjusted for changes in the Company’s share of the investee’s net assets. When the Company’s share of losses in an associate or joint venture exceeds its interest in that associate, an additional loss is recognized only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
The excess of the acquisition cost over the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the associate and the joint venture at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill and is included in the carrying amount of the investment. The excess of the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of its associates and joint ventures over the acquisition cost at the date of acquisition is recognized as a gain immediately upon reassessment.
In assessing impairment, the Company considers the entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) as a single asset and compares the recoverable amount (higher of value in use or fair value less selling cost) with the carrying amount to test for impairment, and the impairment loss recognized is included in the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of the impairment loss is recognized to the extent of the subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of the investment.
If the Company fails to subscribe for new shares issued by an associate or a joint venture in proportion to its shareholding ratio, resulting in a change in shareholding ratio and a consequent increase or decrease in the net equity value of an investment, the increase or decrease is adjusted to capital surplus and investments accounted for using the equity method. However, if the ownership interest in an associate decreases because the Company does not subscribe for or acquire new shares in proportion to its shareholding ratio, the amount recognized in other comprehensive income related to the associate is reclassified on a pro rata basis to reflect the decrease in ownership interest,
- 24 -
which is accounted for on the same basis as that used for the disposal of assets or liabilities by the associate directly.
- (XI) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recognized at acquisition cost and presented at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. The cost of property, plant and equipment consists of expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of the assets, any other directly attributable costs that are necessary to bring the asset to a useable condition for its intended purpose, and dismantling, relocation and site restoration costs. The foregoing costs include the cost for replacing part of the plant and equipment and the necessary interest expense incurred on construction contracts.
Real estate under construction is presented at cost less all recognized impairment losses. (Cost includes professional service expenses). Such real estate is classified to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment when completed and reaching the expected use state. Such assets are depreciated on the same basis as other real estate assets, which commences when the assets reach the expected use state. Self-owned land is not depreciated.
When a major item of property, plant and equipment is required to be replaced on a regular basis, the Company considers that item as an individual asset and recognizes depreciation according to specified useful life and depreciation method. Major maintenance costs are considered as replacement costs and recognized as part of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment if the conditions for recognition are met. Other maintenance expenses are recognized in profit or loss. The present value of the expected decommissioning cost of an asset after use is included in the cost of the related asset if it meets the recognition criteria for liability reserve.
Each part of property, plant and equipment is depreciated separately and considered as a separate item (significant component) of property, plant and equipment if its cost is material in relation to the total cost of that item.
After initial recognition, an item or a significant component of property, plant and equipment is derecognized and recognized in profit or loss if it is disposed of or if no future economic benefits are expected to flow from its use or disposal. Depreciation is calculated recognized in profit or loss over the estimated useful lives of individual
- 25 -
components of property, plant and equipment on a straight-line basis because it best reflects the expected consumption pattern of future economic effects of the assets.
Depreciation is calculated according to the following estimated useful lives:
| Property and building | 5 - 51 years |
|---|---|
| Machinery equipment | 2 - 16 years |
| Molding equipment | 2 - 3 years |
| Transportation equipment | 2 - 6 years |
| Computer and telecommunication equipment | 4 years |
| Business equipment | 2 - 7 years |
| Leasehold improvements | 5 years |
| Other equipment | 2 - 11 years |
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives. Estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, and the impact of any changes in estimates is recognized on a deferred basis.
Items of property, plant and equipment are derecognized when they are disposed of or when no future economic benefits are expected from the continued use of the asset. Gains or losses arising from the disposal or scrapping of property, plant and equipment are recognized in profit or loss as the difference between the disposal price and the carrying amount of the asset.
(XII) Leases
- Lease judgment
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
- The Company as lessee
The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at the inception date of the lease. Right-of-use assets are measured initially at cost, which consists of the initially measured amount of the lease liability, adjusted for any lease payments made on or before the inception date of the lease, plus original direct costs incurred and the estimated costs to dismantle or remove the underlying asset and reinstate the underlying asset or its original location, less any lease incentives received.
- 26 -
The right-of-use assets are subsequently depreciated on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of the asset’s useful life or the end of the lease term. In addition, the Company periodically evaluates right-of-use assets for impairment and handles any incurred impairment losses, and adjusts right-of-use assets in case of remeasurement of lease liabilities.
Lease liabilities are measured initially at the present value of outstanding lease payments at the inception date of the lease. The implicit interest rate of the lease is easy to determine, the discount rate is that interest rate, otherwise the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used. Generally, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
Lease payments included in the measurement of lease liabilities consist of:
-
(1) Fixed payments, including substantial fixed payments;
-
(2) Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are initially measured using the index or rate at the inception date of the lease.
Subsequently, the interests on lease liabilities are calculated using the effective interest method, and the lease liabilities are remeasured when the following circumstances occur:
-
(1) A change in the index or rate used to determine lease payments results in a change in future lease payments;
-
(2) A change in the estimate of whether to exercise the option to extend or terminate the lease, which changes the assessment of the lease term;
-
(3) Changes in the amount of residual value guarantee expected to be paid;
-
(4) Changes in the evaluation of purchase options for the underlying assets;
-
(5) Changes in the subject matter, scope or other terms of the lease.
When a lease liability is remeasured as a result of changes in the index or rate used to determine the lease payments, changes in the amount of residual value guarantee, and changes in the evaluation of purchase, extension or termination options, the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is adjusted accordingly, and the remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss when the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero.
- 27 -
For lease modifications that reduce the scope of the lease, the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease, and its difference from the remeasurement amount of the lease liability is recognized in profit or loss.
The Company presents right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that do not meet the definition of investment property as separate line items on the balance sheet.
For short-term leases of business equipment and other equipment and leases of low-value assets, the Company chooses not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, and but recognizes the related lease payments as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
For sale and leaseback transactions, whether the transfer of an asset to a buyer-lessor satisfies the requirements for sale is evaluated in accordance with IFRS 15. If it is determined that the asset is sold, such asset is derecognized and the portion of the right transferred to the buyer-lessor is recognized in profit or loss. Leaseback transactions are accounted for as lessee transactions, and the right-of-use asset is measured at the original amount of the portion of the asset leased back. If the requirements for sale are not met, the transferred asset is further recognized and the consideration received is recognized as a financial liability. The Company as lessor
Lease agreements in which the Company is the lessor are classified as a finance lease if substantially all the risks and returns of ownership to the underlying asset have been transferred or an operating lease otherwise at the inception date of the lease. In the evaluation, the Company considers relevant specific indicators, including whether the lease term covers a significant portion of the economic life of the underlying asset.
If the Company is a sub-lessor, the Company shall handle the transactions of primary lease and sublease separately and evaluate the classification of the sublease transaction based on the right of use derived from the primary lease. If the primary lease is a short-term lease and a recognition exemption is applied, the sublease transaction shall be classified as an operating lease.
- 28 -
(XIII) Intangible assets
The Company acquired intangible assets with finite useful lives are shown at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
Amortization amount is calculated on a straight-line basis over the following useful lives:
Computer software Economic benefits or contract term Estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of the reporting period, and the impact of any changes in estimates is deferred.
(XIV) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Company evaluates at each reporting date whether there is any indication showing that the carrying amount of non-financial assets (other than inventories, contract assets, and deferred tax assets) may be impaired. If any indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset shall be estimated.
For the purpose of impairment test, a group of assets of which a significant portion of the cash inflows are independent of other individual assets or the cash inflow of an asset group is identified as the smallest identifiable asset group. Goodwill acquired from business merger is allocated to each cash generating unit or group of cash generating units that is expected to benefit from the merger synergies.
The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value of an asset or cash generating unit less the disposal cost and its value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or cash generating unit.
An impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit is less than its carrying amount.
An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss. The carrying amount of amortized goodwill of a cash generating unit is reduced first, and then the carrying amount of that asset is reduced in proportion to the carrying amount of other assets in the unit.
Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed. Non-financial asset other than goodwill is reversed only to the extent that the carrying amount (net of depreciation or
- 29 -
amortization) of the asset does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognized for the asset in previous years.
(XV) Provisions
The provision for liabilities is recognized when there is a present obligation arising from past events, it is likely that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated.
The amount recognized as a provision for liabilities is the best estimate of the expenses that will be required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties of the obligation. If the provision for liabilities is measured at the estimated cash flows to settle the present obligation, the carrying amount is the present value of such cash flows.
(XVI) Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the consideration expected to be received for the goods or services transferred. The Company recognizes the revenue when control over goods or services is transferred to the customer to satisfy performance obligations.
-
Sales of goods
-
The Company recognizes the revenue when control of the product is transferred to the customer. The control over a product is transferred when the product is delivered to the customer, the customer has complete control over the product’s distribution channels and price, and there are no outstanding obligations that would affect the customer’s acceptance of the product. Delivery occurs when the product is shipped to a specific location and the risks of obsolescence and loss are transferred to the customer. The customer has accepted the product under a sales contract, the terms of acceptance have expired, or the Company has objective evidence showing that all conditions of acceptance have been met.
-
The Company recognizes accounts receivable upon delivery of goods because the Company has an unconditional right to receive consideration at that time.
-
Financial components
The Company does not adjust the time value of money of the transaction price because it expects the time interval between the transfer of goods or services to the customer and the time the customer pays for those goods or services to be less than
- 30 -
one year for all customer contracts.
(XVII)Government grants
Government grants are recognized only when the conditions attached to the grant are met and the grant is expected to be received.
(XVIII) Employee benefits
- Defined contribution plans
Contribution obligations to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as expenses over the employees’ service provision period. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that they result in a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.
- Defined benefit plan
The Company’s net obligation for defined benefit plans is calculated by discounting the present value of future benefit amounts earned by employees for current or prior periods of service, less the fair value of plan assets.
The defined benefit obligation is actuarially calculated annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit benefit method. When the calculation results are probable to be favorable to the Company, the assets are recognized to the extent of the present value of any economic benefits that may be obtained in the form of refunds of contributions from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. The present value of economic benefits is calculated taking into account any minimum contribution requirements.
The remeasurement of the net defined benefit liabilities, including actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest), and any changes in the impact of the asset ceiling (excluding interest) are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income and accumulated in retained earnings. The Company determines that net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liability (asset) uses the net defined benefit liability (asset) and discount rate determined at the beginning of the annual reporting period. Net interest expense and other expenses of the defined benefit plan are recognized in profit or loss.
Changes in benefits related to prior service costs or reduced benefits or losses resulting from plan revisions or reductions are recognized immediately in profit or
- 31 -
loss. The Company recognizes gains or losses on settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.
- Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are recognized as expenses when services are rendered. If the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay as a result of past service rendered by employees, and the obligation can be estimated reliably, the amount is recognized as a liability.
(XIX) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition of an asset are included as part of the cost of that asset until substantially all activities necessary to bring the asset to its intended use or sale state have been completed.
Except for the above, all other borrowing costs are recognized as profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
- (XX) Income tax
The income tax for the period comprises current and deferred tax.
Current income taxes include income taxes payable or tax refunds receivable based on the taxable income (loss) in current year, and any adjustments to income taxes payable or tax refunds receivable in previous years. The amount is the best estimate of the amount expected to be paid or received, as measured by the statutory tax rate or the tax rate under substantive legislation at the reporting date.
Deferred income taxes are measured and recognized for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of financial reporting and their tax bases. Unused tax losses and unused tax credits in later periods of transfer, and deductible temporary differences are recognized as deferred tax assets to the extent that it is very likely that future taxable income will be available. They shall also be reassessed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that the relevant income tax benefit is not within the scope very likely to be realized; or the originally reduced amount shall be reversed to the extent that it is very likely to generate sufficient taxable income.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if the following conditions are met simultaneously:
-
32 -
-
There is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
-
The deferred tax assets and liabilities are relate to one of the following taxpayers that are subject to the income tax levied by the same taxation authority:
-
(1) The same taxpayer; or
-
(2) Different taxpayers, provided that each taxpayer intends to settle current income tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realize assets and settle liabilities simultaneously in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred income tax assets are expected to be recovered and deferred income tax liabilities are expected to be settled.
(XXI) Earnings per share
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to equity holders of the Company’s common shares. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to the equity holders of the Company’s common shares by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares in current period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to the equity holders of the Company’s common shares by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares, adjusted for the impact of all potential diluted common shares.
(XXII)Segment information
Information on segments has been disclosed by the Company in the consolidated financial statements, thus will not be disclosed in the parent company only financial statements.
- V. Significant Accounting Judgment, Estimates, and Assumptions and the Main Sources of Assumption Uncertainty
When the Comapny adopts accounting policies, the management must make relevant judgments, estimates and assumptions based on experience and other relevant factors for the information that is not easily obtained from other sources. Actual results may differ from estimates.
The Company includes the economic impacts of COVID-19, Ukraine-Russia conflict and inflation into considerations for significant accounting estimates. The Management will
- 33 -
continuously review estimates and underlying assumptions, and recognize changes in accounting estimates in the period when the changes occur and in the future periods affected. Management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions when preparing the parent company only financial statements. They will affect the adoption of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from estimates.
Information about uncertainties in assumptions and estimates that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment in the next year is summarized below. The uncertainties in the following assumptions and estimates have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year and have reflected the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The relevant information is summarized below:
-
(I) Lose allowance for accounts receivable
-
The loss allowance for accounts receivable is estimated based on the assumptions of default risk and expected loss rate. The Company considers historical experience, current market conditions and forward-looking estimates at each reporting date to determine the assumptions and inputs to be used in the impairment calculation. For details of the relevant assumptions and inputs, please refer to Note VI(IV).
-
(II) Evaluation of inventories
-
Since inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, the Company evaluates the amounts of normal inventory consumption, obsolete inventories or inventories without market selling value on reporting date, and writes down the cost of inventories to the net realizable value. Such an evaluation of inventories is principally based on the demand for the products within the specified period in the future. Therefore, there might be material changes due to rapid changes in the industry.
-
(III) Impairment evaluation of investments accounted for using equity method
-
When there is an indication that an investment by equity method has impaired and the carrying amount may not be recovered, the Company will evaluate such impairment immediately. The Company evaluates the impairment loss based on the investee’s future cash flow projections, including the sales growth rate and capacity utilization rate estimated by the investee’s internal management, and analyzes the reasonableness of the related assumptions.
-
34 -
-
(IV) Impairment evaluation of tangible assets and intangible assets (excluding goodwill) During the asset impairment evaluation process, the Company relies on its subjective judgment, use mode of assets and characteristics of the industry, to determine the independent cash flows of a particular asset group, useful life of the assets and the likely future income and loss, and any change in estimates due to changes in economic conditions or the Company’s strategy may cause significant impairment or reversal of a recognized impairment loss in the future.
-
(V) Recognition and measurement of provision for liabilities
-
Provisions for product warranty liabilities are estimated at the time of revenue recognition and are based on the number of products under warranty, the history of the products, the expected maintenance rate and the expected unit maintenance cost. The Company continuously reviews the basis of these estimates and revises them when appropriate. Any change in the above estimate basis could materially affect the estimation of the provision for product warranty liabilities.
-
(VI) Realizability of deferred tax assets
-
Deferred tax assets are recognized only when it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income for deductible temporary differences to be used in the future. Assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets must involve significant accounting judgments and estimates by the management, including assumptions about expected future sales revenue growth and profit margins, tax holiday periods, available income tax credits, and tax planning, etc. Any changes in the global economic environment, industrial environment and laws may cause significant adjustments to deferred tax assets.
-
(VII) Measurement of defined benefit obligation
-
The defined benefit cost and net defined benefit liabilities (assets) to be recognized for the defined benefit pension plan are actuarially valued using the projected unit benefit method. The actuarial assumptions adopted include discount rate, employee turnover rate, and increment rate of future salary. Such assumptions could materially affect the amounts of expenses and liabilities recognized if they change as a result of changes in market and economic conditions. For the significant actuarial assumptions used in the actuarial calculations and the sensitivity analysis, please refer to Note VI(XVII).

The average credit period for merchandise sales ranges from 30 to 90 days for monthly statement, and accounts receivable are non-interest-bearing.
The loss allowance for accounts receivable of the Company is recognized by simplified method under IFRS 9 according to lifetime expected credit losses. The lifetime expected credit loss is calculated using provision matrix and takes past breach records of the customer, the current financial condition and industrial economic trend. Since the Company’s historical experience of credit losses shows that there is no significant difference in the pattern of losses among different customer groups, therefore, the reserve matrix does not further distinguish between the customer groups, but only determines the expected credit loss rate based on the number of days overdue on accounts receivable.
If any evidence shows the counterparty faces significant financial difficulty and the collectible amount cannot be reasonably expected, the Company will directly offset the relevant accounts receivable but keep track of the receivables. The recovered amount is recognized in profit or loss.
The Company measures the loss allowance of note and accounts receivable according to the provision matrix as follows:
- 38 -
| Not past due 1 - 30 days past due 31 - 180 days past due 181 - 365 days past due Over 366 days past due Total Not past due 1 - 30 days past due 31 - 180 days past due 181 - 365 days past due Over 366 days past due Total |

Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk of changes in fair value of financial instruments due to changes in market interest rates. The Company’s interest rate risk arises mainly from borrowings at variable interest rates.
If the borrowings at floating rate at the end of the reporting period are held for the entire reporting period, a 1% increase in interest rates would result in a decrease in net income of NT$15,450 thousand.
- Other price risk
The price risk of the Company’s equity instrument investments arises mainly from the financial assets classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss, and the financial assets classified as measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

(IV) Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial losses to the Company. The Company’s credit risk mainly comes from receivables arising from operating activities and bank deposits arising from investment activities. The operation-related credit risks and the financial credit risks are under separate management.
- Operation-related credit risks
In order to maintain quality of accounts receivable, the Company has established the procedure for management of operation-related credit risks. According to the Company’s credit policy, the Company is responsible for managing and analyzing the credit risk for each new customer. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.
The risk assessment of individual customers takes into account many factors that may affect the customers’ ability to pay, including the customers’ financial position, ratings of credit rating agency, the Company’s internal credit rating, historical
- 74 -
transaction records and current economic conditions, etc. The Company also utilizes certain credit enhancement tools, such as credit insurance, when appropriate, to minimize the credit risk of specific customers.
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the balance of accounts receivable of the top ten customers accounted for 84% and 80% of the Company’s balance of accounted receivable respectively, and the credit concentration risk of the remaining accounts receivable was relatively insignificant.
- Financial credit risk
The credit risk of bank deposits is measured and monitored by the financial departments of the Company. As the Company’s trading partners and performing parties are banks with good credit and financial institutions, corporate organizations and government agencies with investment grade or above, without significant concern about performance of the contract, therefore, there is no significant credit risk.
(V) Liquidity risk
The Company’s objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain cash and cash equivalents and sufficient bank facilities required for maintaining operations, so as to ensure sufficient financial resilience of the Company.
The following table summarizes the financial liabilities of the Company during the agreed repayment period by maturity date and undiscounted maturity amount:

(VI) Fair value
-
For information on the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments not measured at fair value, please refer to Note XII (I).
-
The different levels that the inputs to valuation techniques are used to measure fair value of financial and non-financial instruments have been defined as follows:
-
(1) Level 1: The inputs to this level are publicly quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Active market means a market that meets all of the following conditions: the products traded in the market are homogeneous; willing buyers and sellers are readily available in the market, and the price information is readily available to the public.
-
(2) Level 2: the input values of this level are observable prices other than publicly quoted prices in Level 1, including direct (such as prices) or indirect (such as derived from prices) observable input values obtained from the active market.
-
(3) Level 3: the input values of this level are not inputs for assets or liabilities that are based on observable market data.
-
For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2.
-
For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no transfer into or out from Level 3.
-
-
The methods and assumptions the Company used to measure fair value are as follows:
-
(1) The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded in active markets are determined by reference to quoted market prices.
-
(2) The fair values of other financial liabilities are determined using generally accepted valuation models based on discounted cash flow analysis.
-
Fair value hierarchy:
The fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value is as follows:
