Business Report
Compared with 2019, under the influence of COVID-19, severe and special infectious pneumonia, the overall LED industry was impacted a lot in 2020. Moreover, due to exchange rate fluctuations, sales profits also declined slightly. In order to fight against unfavorable situations related to these impacts, Bright LED electronics corp., which has actively adjusted the company's fundamentals and operated under lean management over the past few years, remained profitable this year. Due to the company policies of ongoing cost reduction and sales increase in proportion of high value-added products and intelligence manufacturing plan, we are hoping that in the future, we can remain profitable in this fickle, unpredictable situation. In year of 2020, the company's overall profitability was fair with stable gross profit margin. In the future, the company will continuously work hard on developing various products applicable in various industries, increasing product’s added values, expanding markets or business opportunities with cross-industry alliance, and providing customers with more one-stop services and customized products.
2020 Result
In 2020, our consolidated revenue totaled NT$1,375,687 thousand dollars, a decrease of 22 percent over NT$1,763,659 thousand dollars in 2019. Consolidated net income totaled NT$133,115 thousand dollars, a decrease of 43 percent over NT$233,879 thousand dollars in 2019. Net income attributed to the parent company totaled NT$128,125 thousand dollars, an increase of 45 percent over NT$234,486 thousand dollars in 2019.

Technological Developments
In 2020, we continued to work on LED projects with special specifications, multiple chips and multiple wavelengths, which are mainly used in medical, automotive and aerospace fields. In ad-
6
dition, the previous development’s phased results of photo relay have achieved in good performance, and it is currently in the sample delivery stage and continues to be carried out on schedule. Compared with mechanical relays, photo relays have longer life span, low current drive and fast response. They are one of the indispensable components in the field of intelligence manufacturing and mechanical manufacturing.
The relevant specifications and samples of UVC LED components used in the fields of environmental sterilization and health care have been launched. We continue to optimize product quality and manufacturing process to meet the customization and differentiation. The miniaturization of UVC LED components brings many applications advantages and can be used in conjunction with multiple types of application products. In addition, UVC LED also has many advantages itself such as fast start-up, more switching frequency, and battery-powered availability. In view of the severe and special infectious pneumonia raging due to COVID-19 in early 2020, the company expects to accelerate the schedule this year to promote the popularization of UVC products in the future.
Finally, with regard to smart city concept, due to the popularity of street lamps in Taiwan, besides lighting, there are many additional applications can be attached. Smart street lighting are mainly designed and installed with controllers, sensors and other components so that the street lighting can have more functions services attached, at the same time reducing the original costs of building a base for these functions. For example, with wireless transmission attached, when the lamp fails, the controller can directly detect and report to the control center and call for maintenance. Various types of environmental monitoring can be attached using multiple sensors, which to detect harmful gases, noise, PM2.5, wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, and etc., to report back to the control center and to alert the public. The lamp itself can also use the lighting sensors to detect ambient lights periodically and automatically adjust lamp’s brightness to meet comfort for vision without wasting power. In addition to the above intelligent functions, street lighting may support connections between 4G/5G transmitters as miniature base stations in the future or can possibly support and cooperate with other fields like vehicle charging, and etc. There are unlimited possibilities could be accomplished in the future.
Summary, corporate development, and outlook affected by external competition, regulatory environment and overall operation strategy
Looking forward to business plan of 2021, in addition to the existing mass-produced application products’ qualities and functions, including smart home applications, security and surveillance control, aviation and transportation electronic applications, computer-related applications, sensing applications, lighting applications, and etc., which will continue to be improved, Bright LED Electronics also urges to provide customers with new solutions to meet the needs of customization and differentiation, and to increase the added value of products and to continuously accelerate the progress of cases with special specifications in order to expand more special application markets, such as environmental sterilization and health care and medical markets. With the injection of new
7
products, the company will obtain new business opportunities and ultimately lead to increase company’s revenues and profits. Since January, 2021, the severe and special infectious pneumonia of COVID-19 has slowed down. If there is no other new issues emerge, it is expected that the overall world economy will slowly rebound after. The company's performance at the beginning of 2021 has already rebounded slightly compared to last year. The company will continue to strengthen risk control, improve internal management and strengthen the company's response ability. In view of external factors such as health environment and unpredictable risks of international policies, the company's business model continues to move towards lean management, while implementing intelligent manufacturing and accelerating the improvement of production processes and operating models to diversify risks and accelerate the company's response and adaptation capability which we believe will lead Bright LED Electronics corp. to sustainably develop and survive in this turbulent and uncertain generation.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing 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.
Those charged with governance (including the Supervisors) are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 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.
-
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.
1
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
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 parent company only financial statements; if such disclosures are inadequate, we are responsible 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.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only 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 Company to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
1
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Ms. Hsin-I Kuo and Ms. Tzu-Hui Li.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
(Consolidated Financial Statements)
The Board of Directors and Shareholders Bright LED Electronics Corp.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Bright LED Electronics Corp and subsidiaries. (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, 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.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the consolidated 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.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. 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 Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 are stated as follows:
Inventory valuation
2
For details of accounting policies, accounting estimations and assumptions, and related disclosures of inventory valuation, please refer to Notes 4 (8), 5 (2) and 6 (4) of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The description of key audit matter:
The Company’s amount of inventories is shown as the lower of cost and net realizable value. Because determining the slow moving inventory loss involves subjective judgment on individual assessment of each category of inventory and its idle days, inventory valuation is one of the key audit matters that we conducted.
Corresponding audit procedure included the following:
-
Obtained year-end inventory falling price losses and inventory aging report
-
Compared the difference between the actual selling prices and its book values
-
Evaluated managers’ judgment on allowance percentage of inventory aging report whether is reasonable or not, which included the following procedures as well:
-
Executed audit sampling procedure
-
Tested the accuracy of the inventory aging report
-
Compared the difference between last year’s allowance and actual write-off
-
Evaluated the appropriateness of the policy of allowance to reduce inventory and loss from idle inventories.
Revenue Recognition
For details of accounting policies and related disclosures of revenue recognition, please refer to Notes 4 (13) and 6 (18) of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The description of key audit matter:
The sources of the major operating revenue of the Company are research and development, productions, and sales of light-emitting diodes indicators and display…etc and contracts of LED display, LED lighting and related operating applications/systems’ constructions. Where the Company’s revenues generated from is the concerned factor for this report users or recipients. Hence, revenue recognition is considered as one of the key audit matters.
2
Corresponding audit procedure included the following:
-
Evaluated appropriateness of accounting policies according to the understanding of the Company’s operation and the characteristics of the industry both acquired by the new IFRS.
-
Tested the design of internal control system and effectiveness of execution.
-
Analyzed and evaluated if there is any major irregularity by inspecting revenues generated from main customers and new customers.
-
Evaluated accuracy during the period of revenue recognition by inspecting new major contract added in this period and tested sales samples in accordance with its contract terms during a period of time, which is before and after the year end.
-
Checked whether the proportion of project revenue recognized according to the degree of completion of contract obligations is reasonable or not.
Account Receivables Valuation
For details of accounting policies of account receivables valuation, please refer to Notes 4 (7) financial instruments of the Company’s consolidated financial statements; for details of accounting estimates and accounting assumption of uncertainty of account receivables valuation, please refer to Notes 5 (1) of the Company’s consolidated financial statements; for details of explanation on account receivables valuation, please refer to 6 (3) of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The description of key audit matter:
Account receivables of Bright LED Electronics Corp. are distributed among customers. The account receivables valuation allowance is calculated according to the expected percentage of credit losses which takes each time interval of overdues of account receivables and adjustments on prospective factors into consideration when estimating expected credit losses of account receivables. The management will, according to the report date, re-update new expected losses within each time interval of overdues and perform individual assessments on major overdues and payment disputes; hence, it involves subjective judgment from the managers and it is considered as one of the key audit matters. Corresponding audit procedure included the following:
-
Evaluated reasonableness of the percentage of expected credit losses
-
Determined whether there is a major irregularity by comparing the turnover rate and turnover days of accounts receivables with the company’s credit policy and other related information.
-
Obtained the aging schedule.
-
Verified total amount from the aging schedule with general ledger
2
-
Confirmed integrity and accuracy of the aging schedule.
-
Ascertained whether the bills and accounts receivables in dispute or involved in litigation have been properly handled.
-
Checked whether the customers’ receivables dues more than three months have been properly evaluated and check whether there is a risk of transferring other receivables.
Other Matter
We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Bright LED Electronics Corp. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 on which we have issued an unmodified opinion.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the republic of China, 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 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.
Those charged with governance (including the Supervisors) are responsible for overseeing the Company’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 auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of
2
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. 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.
-
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.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
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 consolidated financial statements; if such disclosures are inadequate, we are responsible 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.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, 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 Company 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.
2
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 for the year ended December 31, 2019 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Ms. Hsin-I Kuo and Ms. Tzu-Hui Li.
