Report Items

1. 2022 Business Report

Due to the global pandemic and the global inflation caused by the Russo-Ukrainian War, consumer malaise occurred, which led to a decline in the overall desktop PC market. The number of motherboards shipped by Biostar Microtech Int’l Corp. (hereinafter referred to as “the Company”) was 940 thousand in 2022 with a decrease of 6% compared to the year 2021. The consolidated operating income in 2022 was NT$ 2.2 billion with a decrease of 19% compared to the year 2021. The consolidated gross profit margin was reduced from 19% in 2021 to 12%. The net profit after tax in 2022 was NT$ 12.85 million.

Currently the desktop PC market is weakening and unavoidably it will result in some minor recession in 2023. Especially in the recent years, the cost of labor, materials, electricity, and others continue to increase, as well as the costs of excess inventory of PC components continue to rise. These facts delay the consumers’ demands. Moreover, under the turbulence of global geopolitical situations and economic inflation, the consumer market is still declining.

Fortunately the pandemic has slowed down as well as commercial activities resume and the policies for domestic demand are introduced by the governments of different countries in order to boost the economy. Furthermore, Biostar has been devoted to energy-related industry for the past 3 years and it is hoped for increasing Biostar’s revenue and profit by joining in the trend of electric cars. This goal will be achieved with Biostar teaming up with a well known partner to complete the Charging Station project

The Company would like to thank all the shareholders. We wish everyone good health and all the best.

Chairman, Ming-Yi Wang

Appendix 1

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPOR

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Biostar Microtech Int’L Corp.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Biostar Microtech Int’L Corp. (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors (please refer to the other matter paragraph), the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and 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 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 the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion based on our audits and the reports of other auditors.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

12

Key audit matters of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 are stated as follows:

Estimation Uncertainty on Write-Down of Inventories

The Company is primanry engaged in sales of computer motherboards, Industrial computer and other computer peripheral products. Due to the industrial characteristic, as well as requent releases of products resulting in the product slow-mocing (unmarketable) and obsolescence. The estimation of inventories net realisable value involved with management uncertainty. The actual result might differ from the estimates. The estimation uncertainty on write-down of inventories are critical to financial statements as of December 31, 2022. Therefore, it was identified as a key audit matter. Please refer to Note 4, 5 and 11 for the estimation uncertainty on write-down of inventories’s accounting policies, estimation uncertainty and disclosing information.

Our main audit procedures we performed to address the above key audit matter were as follows:

  1. We obtained an understanding of the company’s inventories evaluation policies and the design of internal controls related to inventories evaluation and we tested the operating effectiveness ofsuch control.

  2. We selected the sales and purchase documentation and we tested the book value of inventories to check weather the lower of cost and net realisable value.

  3. We tested and recalculated the data used by the management to calculate the allowance for inventory impairment losses and we compared the amount of the the allowance for inventory impairment losses recognized by Biostar Microtech Int'L Corp. Afterwards, We confirmed the inventory will be scrapped whether it is listed in accordance with the inventory policy and adequacy of the Company.

  4. We observed the annual inventory count, and we observed whether there are sluggish or obsolete inventories.

Other Matter

As disclosed in first paragraph to financial statements, we did not audit the financial statements of Biostar Microtech (U.S.A.) Corp. and Biostar Microtech Europe Holding B.V. accounted for using the equity method included in the financial statements of the Company, but such statements were audited by other auditors. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the investments and the share of profit (loss) of the investees accounted for using the equity method audited by other auditors, was based solely on the reports of the other auditors. The total investments in investees accounted for using the equity method were NT$49,252 thousand and NT$56,022 thousand, which constituted 1.60% and 1.59%of total assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively; and the share of the other comprehensive income of the subsidiaries and associates accounted for using the equity method was NT$(15,698) thousand and NT$22,198 thousand, which constituted (52.78%) and 6.28% of the total comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the 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 necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

13

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

14

Those charged with governance, including members of the audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. 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 Company’s internal control.

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

  4. 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 Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

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

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

15

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 financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audits resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Ching-Cheng Yang and Han-Ni Fang.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Biostar Microtech Int’L Corp. and Subsidiaries

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Biostar Microtech Int’L Corp. and Subsidiaries (the “Group”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors (please refer to the other matter paragraph), the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and 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 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. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion based on our audits and the reports of other auditors.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

- 24 -

Key audit matters of the Group’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 are stated as follows:

Estimation Uncertainty on Write-Down of Inventories

The Group is primanry engaged in sales of computer motherboards, Industrial computer and other computer peripheral products. Due to the industrial characteristic, as well as requent releases of products resulting in the product slow-mocing (unmarketable) and obsolescence. The estimation of inventories net realisable value involved with management uncertainty. The actual result might differ from the estimates. The estimation uncertainty on write-down of inventories are critical to financial statements as of December 31, 2022. Therefore, it was identified as a key audit matter. Please refer to Note 4, 5 and 11 for the estimation uncertainty on write-down of inventories’s accounting policies, estimation uncertainty and disclosing information.

Our main audit procedures we performed to address the above key audit matter were as follows:

  1. We obtained an understanding of the group’s inventories evaluation policies and the design of internal controls related to inventories evaluation and we tested the operating effectiveness ofsuch control.

  2. We selected the sales and purchase documentation and we tested the book value of inventories to check weather the lower of cost and net realisable value.

  3. We tested and recalculated the data used by the management to calculate the allowance for inventory impairment losses and we compared the amount of the the allowance for inventory impairment losses recognized by Biostar Microtech Int'L Corp. Afterwards, We confirmed the inventory will be scrapped whether it is listed in accordance with the inventory policy and adequacy of the group.

  4. We observed the annual inventory count, and we observed whether there are sluggish or obsolete inventories.

Other Matter

As disclosed in first paragraph to the financial statements, we did not audit the financial statements of Biostar Microtech (U.S.A.) Corp. and Biostar Microtech Europe Holding B.V. accounted for using the equity method included in the financial statements of the Group, but such statements were audited by other auditors. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the investments and the share of profit (loss) of the investees accounted for using the equity method audited by other auditors, was based solely on the reports of the other auditors. The total investments in investees accounted for using the equity method were NT$280,229 thousand and NT$239,658 thousand, which constituted 9.97% and 7.27% of total assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and the share of the other comprehensive income of the subsidiaries and associates accounted for using the equity method was NT$598,245 thousand and NT$702,452 thousand, which constituted 26.75% and 25.32% of the total comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the 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 necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

- 25 -

In preparing the 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 Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. 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.

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

  4. 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 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.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

- 26 -

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.

- 27 -

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 financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audits resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Ching-Cheng Yang and Han-Ni Fang.
