Business Report

In 2024, the global market remained sluggish, with manufacturers continuing to adjust and digest inventory while expanding production capacity at a slow pace. However, the rapid rise of the AI industry drove strong demand for high-end semiconductors. Our company successfully captured this emerging demand, achieving excellent business results. Last year, the parent company’s revenue reached NT$15,652 million, with group revenue at NT$21,604 million, reflecting a yearon-year growth of 16%. Net profit after tax was NT$5,264 million, marking an annual growth of 32% with basic earnings per share of NT$12.49.

Looking back at last year, our semiconductor-related testing system products not only met China’s demand for mature process IC testing, but also successfully addressed the need for systemlevel functional testing of AI semiconductors, driving a remarkable 135% revenue growth. However, our power electronics testing instruments faced declining demand due to the weak market, leading to a 16% revenue decline. Meanwhile, within the group, MAS Automation achieved a revenue growth of 33%, and the overall group revenue grew by 16%, delivering an impressive performance. Additional consolidated financial figures are listed in the table below.

Looking ahead to 2025, geopolitical conflicts and the shift from global free trade to protectionism have introduced uncertainties in industry roadmaps and market demand. Nevertheless, the booming AI industry continues to drive demand for high-end semiconductors and advanced packaging. In response to these trends, our company will implement the following measures to seize business opportunities and sustain revenue and profit growth:

  1. Accelerate the development of metrology solutions for high-end semiconductor and advanced packaging processes.

  2. Continue to expand our customer base by securing first-tier global clients.

  4. Closely monitor new industry roadmaps, allocate resources strategically, and promptly meet customer needs.

Finally, we would like to express our sincere gratitude for the long-term support and encouragement of our shareholders. We wish you all good health and great success in the year ahead!

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

Chroma ATE Inc.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Chroma ATE Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively as the “Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, 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 material accounting policy information (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report 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, 2024 and 2023, 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 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 Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of 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. 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 report 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 consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. 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.

  • 9 -

Key audit matter of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 is stated as follows:

Occurrence of Sales Revenue from Specific Customers

The Group mainly sells test instruments and other products. In 2024, the revenue from specific customers had changed significantly as compared with last year. Considering that there may be greater risks of fraud in revenue recognition and that the management could be under pressure to meet expected financial goals, we identified the occurrence of sales revenue from specific customers as a key audit matter.

The main audit procedures we performed for the aforementioned matter are as follows:

  1. We obtained an understanding of and tested the processes of internal controls related to the sales cycle and evaluated the effectiveness of design and implementation.

  2. We obtained sales details, selected samples and performed test of details, and we verified the documents such as sales order, delivery orders and invoices and confirmed the occurrence of sales revenue.

  3. We obtained samples of sales details and tested for any significant difference in customers and the amount of the receivables, or whether they are still within the credit period, to confirm the occurrence of sales revenue.

Other Matter

The financial statements of some investees included in the financial statements were audited by other auditors. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the accompanying financial statement for investees, is based solely on the reports of other auditors. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the carrying amounts of investments accounted for using the equity method were NT$4,385,973 thousand and NT$3,795,310 thousand, respectively, representing 12% and 11%, respectively, of the total assets. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related shares of profit or loss of associates were NT$607,618 thousand and NT$376,649 thousand, respectively, representing 9% and 7%, respectively, of the profit before income tax.

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Chroma ATE Inc. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 on which we have issued an unmodified opinion with the other matter section.

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 IFRS, IAS, IFRIC and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC 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 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.

  • 10 -

Those charged with governance, including 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 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 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:

  1. 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.

  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 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.

  5. 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.

  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 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.

  • 11 -

We also provide those charged with governance with statements 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, 2024 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 Wen-Chin Lin and Chien-Liang Liu.

We are independent of the Corporation 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 report 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 parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. 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, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

  • 21 -

Key audit matter of the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 is described as follows:

Occurrence of Sales Revenue from Specific Customers

The Corporation and its subsidiaries mainly sell test instruments and other products. In 2024, the revenue from specific customers had changed significantly as compared with last year. Considering that there may be greater risks of fraud in revenue recognition and the management could be under pressure to meet expected financial goals, we identified the occurrence of sales revenue from specific customers as a key audit matter.

The main audit procedures we performed for the aforementioned matter are as follows:

  1. We obtained an understanding of and tested the processes of internal controls related to the sales cycle and evaluated the effectiveness of design and implementation.

  2. We obtained sales details, selected samples and performed test of details, and we verified the documents such as sales order, delivery orders and invoices and confirmed the occurrence of sales revenue.

  3. We obtained samples of sales details and tested for any significant difference in customers and the amount of the receivables, or whether they are still within the credit period, to confirm the occurrence of sales revenue.

Other Matter

The parent company only financial statements of some investees included in the parent company only financial statements were audited by other auditors. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the accompanying parent company only financial statement for investees, is based solely on the reports of other auditors. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the carrying amounts of investments accounted for using the equity method were NT$4,385,973 thousand and NT$3,795,310 thousand, respectively, both representing 13% of the total assets. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related shares of profit or loss of associates were NT$607,618 thousand and NT$376,649 thousand, respectively, representing 10% and 8%, respectively, of the profit before income tax.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is 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 Corporation’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 Corporation 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 Corporation’s financial reporting process.

  • 22 -

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 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 parent company only 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 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.

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

  5. 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.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or business activities within the Corporation 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 control that we identify during our audit.

  • 23 -

We also provide those charged with governance with statements 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, 2024 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 Wen-Chin Lin and Chien-Liang Liu.
