(6). To transfer shares to employees at less than the average actual share repurchase price
(Proposed by Board of Directors)
-
Explanation: (1). Since expensing employee bonus leads to the decrease in the Company’s distribution of bonus, to reduce the impact of expensing employee bonus on the Company and to achieve the goal of motivating employees and retaining talents, the Company has proposed to transfer shares to employees at less than the average actual share repurchase price.
-
(2). In accordance with Article 10-1 of “Regulations Governing Share Repurchase by Exchange-Listed and OTC-Listed Companies”, when the Company intends to transfer shares to employees at less than the average actual share repurchase price, relevant matters shall be explained as follows:
-
A. The exercise price, the valuation percentage, the bases of calculations, and the reasonableness:
- The exercise price is 60% of the simple average closing price of the common shares for either the 1, 3, or 5 business days (temporary reference price) before the price determination date. The current exercise price of transferring treasury shares to employees is NT$ 20 dollars per share (calculated based on
-
7
the simple average closing price NT$ 33.66 per share of the common shares for 5 business days before March 14, 2019 multiplied by 60%). The valuation percentage is determined according to present economic conditions and the Company’s future business circumstance, which is deemed to be reasonable.
-
B. The number of shares to be transferred, the purpose, and the reasonableness:
-
(a). The number of shares to be transferred: 1,000,000 shares
-
(b). The purpose: To motivate employees and retain talents for the purpose of enhancing cohesion
-
(c). The reasonableness: The Company adequately gives incentive to employees by offering the exercise price of 60% of the simple average closing price of the common shares for either the 1, 3, or 5 business days (temporary reference price) before the price determination date (March 14, 2019). Also the cumulative number of shares planned to transfer to employees has not exceed 5% of the total issued shares of the Company regulated by Article 10-1 of “Regulations Governing Share Repurchase by Exchange-Listed and OTC-Listed Companies”. Therefore, it is deemed to be reasonable.
-
C. Qualification requirements for employees subscribing to shares, and the number of shares they are allowed to subscribe for:
-
(a). Qualification requirements for employees subscribing to shares: Perform in compliance with Article 4 of the Company’s “Rules for the First Repurchase and Transfer of Shares to Employees”
-
(b). The number of shares allowed to be subscribed for: Perform in compliance with Article 5 of the Company’s “Rules for the First Repurchase and Transfer of Shares to Employees”
-
D. Factors affecting shareholders' equity:
-
(a). The expensable amount and dilution of the Company's earnings per share:
- (i). The expensable amount: Temporarily calculated based on the closing price per share on March 14, 2019, the
8
amount will be adjusted on the basis of the actual record date of transfer.
(Market price per share (Closing price per share on share subscription record date) – Actual exercise price)
-
Actual number of shares exercise = NT$ 14,550 thousand
- (ii). Dilution of the Company's earnings per share: Dilution of earnings per share = Expensable amount / Current number of outstanding shares = NT$ 0.10
-
(b). Explain what financial burden will be imposed on the Company by transferring shares to employees at less than the average actual share repurchase price:
- For the Company to transfer shares to employees at less than the average actual share repurchase price, the estimated gap between the exercise price and the repurchase price is NT$ 14,960 thousand. Since there is no capital surplus generated from transaction of treasury shares, after deducted the expensable amount of NT$ 14,550, the unappropriated retained earnings will be offset by NT$ 410 thousand. The unappropriated retained earnings on the account is NT$ 150,337 thousand after distribution of 2018 earnings, which is still higher than the aforesaid gap. Considering the Company’s working capital will increase by NT$ 20,000 thousand after transferring of treasury shares to employees and the Company is now remain profitable, it will cause no critical financial burden.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of CHC Healthcare Group
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of CHC Healthcare Group (the “Company”) as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other independent accountants, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, 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 generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with this Code. We believe the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the parent company only financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
20
Key audit matters on the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 were as follows:
Assessment of investments accounted for using equity method
Refer to Note 4(11) for accounting policy on investments accounted for using equity method, Note 5(2) for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions in relation to impairment assessment of investments accounted for using equity method, and Note 6(4) for details of investments accounted for using equity method.
As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s subsidiary, Chiu Ho Medical System Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (“Chiu Ho Medical System Group”), recognised investments accounted for using equity method and investment income amounting to NT$3,395,576 thousand and NT$109,233 thousand, respectively. Because Chiu Ho Medical System Group’s investments accounted for using equity method constituted 44% of the Company’s total assets as of December 31, 2018, and investment income constituted 40% of the Company’s profit before tax for the year ended December 31, 2018, which are significant to the Company’s financial statements, we identified assessment of investments accounted for using equity method as a key audit matter as well as the key audit matters, impairment assessment of goodwill and property, plant and equipment included in Chiu Ho Medical System Group’s financial statements. The key audit matters in relation to Chiu Ho Medical System Group’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 are stated as follows:
Impairment assessment of goodwill
Description
As of December 31, 2018, Chiu Ho Medical System Group’s goodwill arising from business combination amounted to NT$150,617 thousand. After identifying the smallest cash generating unit which can generate independent cash flows, Chiu Ho Medical System Group used the recoverable amount of each cash generating unit to assess whether goodwill may be impaired. Since the assumptions that management used to assess whether goodwill is impaired involve subjective judgement and have high uncertainty, we considered the impairment assessment of goodwill as a key audit matter.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:
A. Obtained an understanding of whether the management identifies the objective evidence of
21
goodwill impairment by following the procedure and taking into account certain factors in a consistent manner and confirmed whether the management uses reliable information.
-
B. Obtained the report on the valuation of the subsidiary issued by an expert as per the management’s request and performed the following:
-
(1) Assessed the independence, objectiveness and competence by reviewing the expert’s qualification.
-
(2) Assessed whether the valuation model is reasonable based on our knowledge of the Chiu Ho Medical System Group’s businesses and industry.
-
(3) Confirmed whether the expert uses the same future cash flows relative to the budget for the next five years provided by the management.
-
(4) Checked whether the comparable assets adopted in appraisal report are consistent with the actual operation.
-
(5) Assessed whether the significant assumptions applied by the expert are relevant and reasonable and tested the mathematical accuracy.
Impairment assessment of property, plant and equipment
Description
Some of Chiu Ho Medical System Group’s leasing businesses were not as profitable as expected due to fierce competition in healthcare industry. The Chiu Ho Medical System Group assesses the impairment based on the estimated recoverable amounts of leasing assets (shown as property, plant and equipment) where there is an indication that they are impaired. Given that the calculation of recoverable amounts requires significant accounting estimates relying upon subjective judgement and uncertainty, we consider the impairment assessment of leasehold assets using the cash-generating units as a key audit matter.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:
-
A. Obtained an understanding of whether the management identifies the objective evidence of impairment by following the procedure and taking into account certain factors in a consistent manner and confirmed whether the management uses reliable information.
-
B. Acquired the asset appraisal report issued by an expert as per the management’s request and
22
performed the following:
-
(1) Assessed the expert’s independence, objectiveness and competence by reviewing the expert’s qualification.
-
(2) Assessed whether the valuation method is widely adopted and appropriate based on our knowledge of the Chiu Ho Medical System Group’s businesses and industry.
-
(3) Confirmed whether the replacement cost, comparative objects and the assets’ use indicated on the appraisal report truthfully reflect the actual operation.
-
(4) Assessed whether the significant assumptions applied by the expert is relevant and reasonable and tested the mathematical accuracy.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the parent company only financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers”, and for such internal controls 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 audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s 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 auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ROC GAAS 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
23
of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
A. 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 controls.
-
B. Obtain an understanding of internal controls 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 controls.
-
C. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
D. 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 auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the parent company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
E. 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.
-
F. 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 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 controls that we identify during our audit.
24
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 current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our report unless the 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.
For and on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers, Taiwan March 22, 2019
The accompanying parent company only financial statements are not intended to present the financial position and results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China.

Accordingly, the accompanying parent company only financial statements and report of independent accountants are not intended for use by those who are not informed about the accounting principles or auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, and their applications in practice.
As the financial statements are the responsibility of the management, PricewaterhouseCoopers cannot accept any liability for the use of, or reliance on, the English translation or for any errors or misunderstandings that may derive from the translation.

REPRESENTATION LETTER
The entities that are required to be included in the combined financial statements of CHC Healthcare Group as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, under the Criteria Governing the Preparation of Affiliation Reports, Consolidated Business Reports and Consolidated Financial Statements of Affiliated Enterprises are the same as those included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with the International Financial Reporting Standard 10, “Consolidated Financial Statements.” In addition, the information required to be disclosed in the combined financial statements is included in the consolidated financial statements. Consequently, CHC Healthcare Group and Subsidiaries do not prepare a separate set of combined financial statements.
Very truly yours,
CHC HEALTHCARE GROUP

Pei-Lin Lee Chairman

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of CHC Healthcare Group
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CHC Healthcare Group and subsidiaries (the “Group”) as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, 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, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, 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” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (“ROC GAAS”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 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 of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and, in forming our
33
opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 were as follows:
Impairment assessment of goodwill
Description
As of December 31, 2018, the Group generated goodwill of NT$150,617 thousand as the result of a merger with Shih-Lu Co., Ltd.
After identifying the smallest cash generating unit which can generate independent cash flows, the Group used the recoverable amount of each cash generating unit to assess whether goodwill may be impaired. Since the assumptions that management used to assess whether goodwill is impaired involve subjective judgement and have high uncertainty, we considered the impairment assessment of goodwill a key audit matter.
Refer to Note 4(19) for the accounting policy on goodwill impairment and Note 5(2) for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions in relation to goodwill impairment.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:
-
A. Obtained an understanding of whether the management identifies the objective evidence of goodwill impairment by following the procedure and taking into account certain factors in a consistent manner and confirmed whether the management uses reliable information.
-
B. Obtained the report on the valuation of the subsidiary issued by an expert as per the management’s request and performed the following:
-
(1) Assessed the expert’s independence, objectiveness and competence by reviewing the expert’s qualification.
-
(2) Assessed whether the valuation model is reasonable based on our knowledge of the Group’s businesses and industry.
-
(3) Confirmed whether the expert uses the same future cash flows relative to the budget for the next five years provided by the management.
34
-
(4) Checked whether the comparable assets adopted in appraisal report are consistent with the actual operation.
-
(5) Assessed whether the significant assumptions applied by the expert are relevant and reasonable and tested the mathematical accuracy.
Impairment assessment of property, plant and equipment
Description
Some of the Group’s leasing businesses were not as profitable as expected due to fierce competition in healthcare industry. The Group assesses the impairment based on the estimated recoverable amounts of leasing assets (shown as property, plant and equipment) where there is an indication that they are impaired. Given that the calculation of recoverable amounts requires significant accounting estimates relying upon subjective judgement and uncertainty, we consider the impairment assessment of leasehold assets using the cash-generating units as a key audit matter.
Refer to Note 4(19) for the accounting policy on asset impairment and Note 5(2) for accounting estimates and assumption uncertainty of asset impairment.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:
-
A. Obtained an understanding of whether the management identifies the objective evidence of impairment by following the procedure and taking into account certain factors in a consistent manner and confirmed whether the management uses reliable information.
-
B. Acquired the asset appraisal report issued by an expert as per the management’s request and performed the following:
-
(1) Assessed the independence, objectiveness and competence by reviewing the expert’s qualification.
-
(2) Assessed whether the valuation method is widely adopted and appropriate based on our knowledge of the Group’s businesses and industry.
-
(3) Confirmed whether the replacement cost, comparative objects and the assets’ use indicated on the appraisal report truthfully reflect the actual operation.
-
(4) Assessed whether the significant assumptions applied by the expert is relevant and reasonable and tested the mathematical accuracy.
35
Other matter – Parent company only financial reports
We have audited and expressed an unqualified opinion on the parent company only financial statements of CHC Healthcare Group as at and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
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 the audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s 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 auditor’s 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 ROC GAAS 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 ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
36
-
A. 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 controls.
-
B. 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 controls.
-
C. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
D. 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 auditor’s 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 auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
E. 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.
-
F. 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.
37
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 current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our 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.
