==> picture [141 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

industries are major sales contribution in 2023.

==> picture [11 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Year 2024 Business Outlook:

• ✓ 2024 growth momentum largely contributes from semiconductor / Photonics sector.

✓ The accelerating development and optimizing chip performance of HPC/AI will continue drive

the demand for SLT testers.

✓ A big turnaround of mature nodes (28nm) market increase the sales contribution to ATE

systems.

✓ The Test Instruments & ATS for power testing solutions sustained a steady growth.
