Independent Auditors' Report
To AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd.:
Audit Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of AWEA Mechantronic Co., Ltd. and its Subsidiaries (the "Group") as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors (refer to the Other Matter paragraph), the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers of the Republic of China, the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. Based on our audit results and the audit reports of other accountants, 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 Group’s 2025 consolidated financial statements. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters for the Group’s 2025 consolidated financial statements are stated as follows:
Revenue recognition
The main source of revenue for the Group is the sales of machining centers. In 2025, the recognized revenue was NTD 1,814,818 thousand, which accounted for about 94% 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 4 to the consolidated 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 the Group. 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
The Group mainly engages in the design, manufacture and sales of special machines, automation equipment and computer-controlled tool machines. As of December 31, 2025, the total inventories, allowance for market value decline and loss on obsolete and slow-moving inventories were NTD 1,778,936 thousand and NTD 542,780 thousand, respectively. Inventories of the Group 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 4 to the consolidated financial statements; for significant accounting estimates and assumptions used in the evaluation of inventories, please refer to Note 5 to the consolidated 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
In the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of YAMA SEIKI USA, INC., an investment accounted for using equity method have not been audited by us, but by other CPAs. Investment amount of such associates recognized by equity method for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were NTD 129,817 thousand and NTD 126,784 thousand, respectively, both accounted for 2% of total assets; for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's share of the profit or loss of associates, and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method was NTD 12,126 thousand and NTD 7,214 thousand, respectively, accounting for (5%) and 1% of total comprehensive income for the respective periods.
The Company has prepared the parent company only financial statements for 2025 and 2024, and we have issued an audit report containing our unqualified opinion plus the audit report issued by other CPAs as in the section of "Other matters" for reference.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance (including members of the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

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.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management level.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including relevant notes, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
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 consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2025, 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.

- 14 -
(2) Application of the IFRS Accounting Standards endorsed by FSC in 2026

(3) IFRS Accounting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) but not yet endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC:
| New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations | Effective Date Announced by IASB (Note 1) |
|---|---|

Note 2: The FSC announced on September 25, 2025, that enterprises in Taiwan should apply IFRS 18 starting from January 1, 2028, and may also elect to apply IFRS 18 in advance after the FSC endorses the standard.
IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” and relevant consequential amendments
IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”. The main changes in this standard include:
-
The Consolidated Company shall assess whether it has specific main operating activities, such as investing in particular types of assets or providing financing to customers, and based on this assessment, divide income and expense items in the income statement into categories including operating, investing, financing, income tax and discontinued operations types.
-
The income statement should present operating profit and loss, profit and loss before financing and tax, and the subtotal and total of profit and loss.
-
Guide to strengthen aggregation and segmentation requirements: The Consolidated Company must identify assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses, losses and cash flows generated from individual transactions or other events, and classify and summarize them on the basis of common characteristics so that each line item reported in the main financial statements has at least one similar characteristic. Items with different characteristics should be subdivided into the main financial statements and notes. The Consolidated Company will label these items as “others” only if it cannot find an informative indication.
-
Increase the disclosure of performance measures defined by management: When the Consolidated Company conducts public communications outside of financial statements and communicates the views of the management on a certain aspect of the Consolidated Company’s overall financial performance to users of financial statements, it should disclose the information related to performance measurement defined by management in a single note to the financial statements. The information includes the description of the measurement, how it is calculated, its reconciliation with the subtotal or total specified in IFRS Accounting Standards, and the impact of income tax and non-controlling interests on related reconciliation items.
-
16 -
In addition, IAS 7 “Statements of Cash Flows” shall be subject to the following consequential amendments:
- When the Consolidated Company prepares cash flows from operating activities using the indirect method, it shall take operating profit/loss as the starting point for adjustments.
- Interest and dividends received by the Consolidated Company shall be classified as investing activities, while interest and dividends paid shall be classified as financing activities. If the Consolidated Company assesses that it has specific main operating activities, it shall consider the types of dividend income, interest income, and interest expense presented in the income statement to determine the classification of dividends received, interest received, and interest paid in the statements of cash flows. However, each of the aforementioned cash flows may only be classified under a single activity in the statements of cash flows.
In addition to the above effects, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized, the Consolidated Company is continuously assessing the possible impact that the application of various standards and interpretations will have on the financial position and financial performance and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed.
4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The summary of significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. The following accounting policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise specified.
(1) Statement of compliance
These consolidated 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.
(2) Basis of preparation
Except for the following significant items of balance sheet, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared at historical cost:
- 17 -
A. Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss;
B. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income;
C. Defined benefit liability recognized at the net value of pension fund assets less the present value of defined benefit obligations.
(3) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets:
A. Assets held mainly for trading purposes;
B. Assets that are expected to be realized within twelve months from the balance sheet date;
C. Cash and cash equivalent (unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the balance sheet date).
Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities; otherwise, they are classified as non-current liabilities:
A. Liabilities held mainly for trading activities.
B. Liabilities due for settlement within twelve months after the balance sheet date; or
C. Liabilities for which the repayment date has no substantial rights on the balance sheet date to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.
(4) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of AWEA and the entities it controls (i.e., subsidiaries).
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control of the subsidiaries is obtained until the date on which such control ceases. The gains and losses attributable to the non-controlling interest in the subsidiaries are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if the non-controlling interest becomes a deficit balance as a result.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries have been appropriately adjusted so that the accounting policies are consistent with those used by AWEA.
Significant transactions among consolidated companies, balances and unrealized gains and expenses have been eliminated when preparing the consolidated financial statements.
- 18 -
Changes in the ownership interest of a subsidiary that do not result in the Company losing control over the subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. To reflect changes in the relative interests of the Company and its non-controlling interests in the subsidiary, its carrying amount has been adjusted. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interest is adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Company.
Subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements:
| Name of investor | Name of subsidiaries | Main business activities | Ownership (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| December 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |||

| AXTRON INT'L INVESTMENT LIMITED | Extron Machinery Co., Ltd. | Machinery manufacturing, sales and installation and international trade | 100% | 100% |
(5) Business merger
Business mergers are accounted for using acquisition method, and acquisition-related costs are recognized as expenses in the year in which they are incurred or the services are rendered.
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration transferred, the amount of non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree as of the acquisition date, over the net of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date.
Business mergers achieved in stages are measured using the fair value of the Consolidated Company’s previously held interest in the acquiree as of the acquisition date; any resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. Amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income prior to the acquisition date due to the previously held interest in the acquiree are recognized on the same basis as if the Consolidated Company had directly disposed of its previously held interest.
(6) Foreign currency transactions
When preparing the financial statements of each consolidated entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currency) are translated to the functional currency based on the exchange rate on the transaction day.
Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies at the end of the reporting period are translated into the functional currency based on the exchange rate on that day.
Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate on that day; however, if the change in fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income, the resulting exchange differences are included in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items measured at historical cost that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates on the transaction date. The exchange differences arising from translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
For purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations of the Consolidated Company shall be translated to NTD by the 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.
(7) 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.
- 20 -
(8) Financial instruments
Accounts receivable are initially recognized when they are incurred. All other financial assets and liabilities shall be recognized initially when the Consolidated 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.
A. 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 Consolidated 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.
(A) 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.
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
(B) Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets not classified as financial assets at amortized cost or at fair value
- 21 -
through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value through profit or loss, including derivative financial assets. The Consolidated 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.
(C) Financial assets at FVTOCI
At initial recognition, the Consolidated 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.
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 Consolidated Company has the right to receive the dividend (usually the ex-dividend date).
(D) Impairment of financial assets
The Consolidated 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,
- 22 -
other receivables, refundable deposits and other financial assets).
The loss allowance is measured at twelve months 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 Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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 twelve months expected credit losses are expected credit losses that result from possible default events within twelve months after the reporting date (or for shorter periods, if the expected life of the financial instrument is less than twelve months).
The maximum period for which expected credit losses are measured is the maximum contract period over which the Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company could receive under the contract and the cash flows that the Consolidated Company expects to receive. Expected credit
- 23 -
losses are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.
On each reporting date, the Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company has made concessions to the borrower that the Consolidated 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.
When the Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company’s procedures for recovering overdue amounts.
- 24 -
(E) Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset will be derecognized only when the Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company does not retain control over that financial asset.
If the Consolidated 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.
(9) Financial liabilities and equity instruments
A. Classification of liabilities and equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Consolidated 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.
B. Equity instruments
Equity instrument refers to any contract that recognizes the remaining interest of the Consolidated Company after reducing all its liabilities from its assets. Equity instruments issued by the Consolidated Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of the cost of direct issue.
C. 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 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.
- 25 -
D. 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.
E. 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.
(10) Inventories
Inventory is measured at the lower of cost or net realized value, and the comparison of cost and net realized value, excluding inventory of the same class, is based on individual items. Net realized value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are stated at standard cost at ordinary times, and are adjusted to approximate weighted average cost at the closing date.
(11) Investments accounted for using equity method
Investments accounted for using equity method include associates and joint ventures.
Associates are companies over which the Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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 which each of the joint venture controllers has an interest, that entity is a jointly controlled entity.
- 26 -
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 Consolidated Company's share of the investee's net assets. When the Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
The excess of the acquisition cost over the Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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, which is accounted for on the same basis as that used for the disposal of assets or liabilities by the associate directly.
- 27 -
When a consolidated entity enters into transactions with associates and joint ventures, unrealized gains and losses are eliminated in proportion to its share on consolidation.
(12) 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 Consolidated 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
- 28 -
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 | 2 - 6 years |
| Office equipment | 5 - 6 years |
| Business equipment | 2 - 7 years |
| Tooling equipment | 4 - 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.
(13) Leases
A. Lease judgment
At the inception of a contract, the Consolidated Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
B. The Consolidated Company as lessee
The Consolidated 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.
- 29 -
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 Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company's incremental borrowing rate is used. Generally, the Consolidated Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
Lease payments included in the measurement of lease liabilities consist of:
(A) Fixed payments, including substantial fixed payments;
(B) 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:
(A) A change in the index or rate used to determine lease payments results in a change in future lease payments;
(B) 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;
(C) Changes in the amount of residual value guarantee expected to be paid;
(D) Changes in the evaluation of purchase options for the underlying assets;
(E) 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.
- 30 -
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 Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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.
C. The Consolidated Company as lessor
Lease agreements in which the Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company considers relevant specific indicators, including whether the lease term covers a significant portion of the economic life of the underlying asset.
If the Consolidated Company is a sub-lessor, the Consolidated 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.
- 31 -
(14) Intangible assets
A. Goodwill
Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
B. Other intangible assets
The Consolidated 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
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.
(15) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Consolidated 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
- 32 -
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 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.
(16) 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.
(17) Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the consideration expected to be received for the goods or services transferred. The Consolidated Company recognizes the revenue when control over goods or services is transferred to the customer to satisfy performance obligations.
A. Sales of goods
The Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company has objective evidence showing that all conditions of acceptance have been met.
The Consolidated Company recognizes accounts receivable upon delivery of goods because the Consolidated Company has an unconditional right to receive consideration at that time.
- 33 -
B. Financial components
The Consolidated 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 one year for all customer contracts.
(18) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs requires that borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset, that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale, are included in the cost of the asset.
For specific borrowings, if the investment income earned by making a temporary investment before the capital expenditure that meets the requirements is incurred, it is deducted from the borrowing costs that meet the capitalization conditions.
Except for the above, all other borrowing costs are recognized as profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
(19) Government grants
A government grant is recognized only when there is reasonable assurance that the Consolidated Company will comply with any conditions attached to the grant and the grant will be received.
Government grants related to income are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the period in which the related costs for which they are intended to compensate are recognized as expenses by the Consolidated Company. Government grants that are contingent upon the Consolidated Company purchasing, constructing or otherwise acquiring non-current assets are recognized as deferred revenue and are transferred to profit or loss on a reasonable and systematic basis over the useful lives of the related assets. The grant receivable as compensation for costs already incurred or for immediate financial support, with no future related costs, shall be recognized as profit or loss in the period in which it is receivable.
For loan obtained by the Consolidated Company at an interest rate below the market interest rate, the difference between the loan amount received and the fair value of the loan calculated at the prevailing market interest rate is recognized as a government grant.
- 34 -
(20) Employee benefits
A. 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.
B. Defined benefit plan
The Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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 loss. The Consolidated Company recognizes gains or losses on settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.
- 35 -
C. Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are recognized as expenses when services are rendered. If the Consolidated 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.
(21) 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:
A. There is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
B. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are related to one of the following taxpayers that are subject to the income tax levied by the same taxation authority:
(A) The same taxpayer; or
(B) 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.
- 36 -
(22) 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.
(23) Segment Information
Operating segments are components of the Consolidated Company that engage in operating activities that may generate revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses related to transactions with other components of the Consolidated Company). The operating results of all operating segments are reviewed periodically by the key operating decision maker of the Consolidated Company in order to make decisions on the allocation of assets to such segments and evaluate the performance. Each operating segment has its separate financial information.
- Significant Accounting Judgment, Estimates, and Assumptions and the Main Sources of Assumption Uncertainty
When the Consolidated Company 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.
When developing significant accounting estimates, the Consolidated Company takes into account the potential impact of U.S. reciprocal tariff measures, and management continuously reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions.
Significant accounting judgment
(1) Loss allowance for accounts receivable
The loss allowance for accounts receivable is estimated based on the assumptions of default risk and expected loss rate. The Consolidated 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 6(5).
- 37 -
(2) Evaluation of inventories
Since inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, the Consolidated 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.
(3) 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 Consolidated Company will evaluate such impairment immediately. The Consolidated 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.
(4) Impairment evaluation of tangible assets and intangible assets (excluding goodwill)
During the asset impairment evaluation process, the Consolidated 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.
(5) 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 Consolidated 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.
(6) 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
- 38 -
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.
(7) 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 6(17).

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 Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company will directly offset the relevant accounts receivable but keep track of the receivables. The recovered amount is recognized in profit or loss.
The Consolidated Company measures the loss allowance of note and accounts receivable according to the provision matrix as follows:
| December 31, 2025 | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Total carrying amount | Loss allowance (lifetime expected credit losses) | Amortized cost | |

Financial instruments
(1) Information on fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts of the Consolidated Company’s financial instruments not measured at fair value, including cash equivalents, notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, refundable deposits, short-term borrowings, short-term notes and bills payable, notes payable, accounts payable, other payables, bonds payable, long-term borrowings, and guarantee deposits received, are the reasonable approximates of their fair values. The interest rates of bonds payable (including those due within one year or under repurchase rights) and long-term loans (including those due within one year) approximate market interest rates; therefore, the carrying amounts should be a reasonable basis for approximation of fair values. For information on the fair value of financial instruments measured at fair value, please refer to Note 12 (6).
(2) Financial risk management objectives
The objectives of the Consolidated Company’s financial risk management are to manage the exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk associated with its operating activities. In order to reduce relevant financial risks, the Consolidated Company is committed to identifying, evaluating and avoiding market uncertainties, so as to reduce the potential adverse impact of market changes on the Company’s financial performance. Significant financial activities of the Consolidated Company are reviewed by the Board of Directors in accordance with relevant norms and internal control systems. During the execution period of the financial plan, the Consolidated Company must comply with the relevant financial operating procedures regarding the overall financial risk management and the division of rights and responsibilities.
(3) Market risks
The Consolidated Company is primarily exposed to market risks arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, and uses certain derivative financial instruments to manage the related risks.
A. Foreign currency exchange rate risk
Some of the Consolidated Company’s cash inflows and outflows are in foreign currencies, which has a partially natural hedging effect; the Consolidated Company’s exchange rate risk management is for hedging purpose, other than for profit purpose.
The exchange rate risk management strategy is to periodically review net parts of the assets and liabilities in various currencies, and make risk management of such parts. The carrying amounts of the Consolidated Company's foreign-currency-denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the reporting period are summarized below:

(Note) Based on the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period.
B. 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 Consolidated 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 NTD 14,842 thousand and NTD 16,940 thousand in 2025 and 2024, respectively.
C. Other price risk
The price risk of the Consolidated Company’s equity instrument investments mainly arises from investments in 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.
If the price of equity instruments at the end of the reporting period decreases by 10%, the Consolidated Company’s income would decrease by NTD 21,669 thousand and NTD 97,691 thousand in 2025 and 2024, respectively.
(4) Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial losses to the Consolidated Company. The Consolidated 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.
A. Operation-related credit risks
In order to maintain quality of accounts receivable, the Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company’s internal credit rating,
- 79 -
historical transaction records and current economic conditions, etc. The Consolidated 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, 2025 and 2024, the balance of accounts receivable of the top ten customers accounted for 67% and 52% of the Consolidated Company’s balance of accounted receivable respectively, and the credit concentration risk of the remaining accounts receivable was relatively insignificant.
B. Financial credit risk
The credit risk of bank deposits is measured and monitored by the financial departments of the Consolidated Company. As the Consolidated 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.
(5) Liquidity risk
The Consolidated 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 Consolidated Company.
The following table summarizes the financial liabilities of the Consolidated Company during the agreed repayment period by maturity date and undiscounted maturity amount:

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.
Level 3: The input values of this level are not inputs for assets or liabilities that are based on observable market data.
C. The methods and assumptions the Consolidated Company used to measure fair value are as follows:
(A) 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.
(B) The fair values of other financial liabilities are determined using generally accepted valuation models based on discounted cash flow analysis.
D. Fair value hierarchy
