INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

PWCR23000658

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of CSBC CORPORATION, TAIWAN

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of CSBC CORPORATION, TAIWAN (the “Company”) as at December 31, 2023 and 2022, 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 material accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the parent company only financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2023 and 2022, and its parent company only financial performance and its parent company only 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 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 parent company only 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 judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the Company’s 2023 parent company only financial statements. 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.

Key audit matters for the Company’s 2023 parent company only financial statements are stated as follows:

Accounting estimates and assumptions for total cost of construction contracts

Description

Please refer to Note 4(30) for a description of the accounting policy on construction contracts. Please refer to Note 5 for critical accounting estimates and assumptions for total cost of construction contracts.

The Company is engaged in the business of designing and building of various ships and cruisers. Assumptions for estimated construction cost include cost for equipment, material, labor and etc. Data used for assumptions involves subjective judgement and accounting estimates and are highly uncertain. As a result, assumptions used are material to the total construction cost and further affects the calculation of construction profit.

As the data used for assumptions involves subjective judgement and accounting estimates are highly uncertain, this may affect the completeness and relevant assertions. Considering that the estimated total cost of construction contracts is material to the financial statements, therefore, we assessed that these accounting estimates and assumptions as one of the key audit matters for this year.

~3~

How our audit addressed the matter

The scope of our audit responded to the risk as follows:

1. Assessing the effectiveness of CSBC Company’s internal control regarding the estimation process of total cost of construction contract. This includes:

2. (1) Whether the data used by management for estimates and assumptions is complete, relevant and accurate.

3. (2)Whether accounting estimates and assumptions have been reviewed and approved by proper management level.

4. (3)Whether the segregation of duties is appropriate.

5. Obtaining the Estimate at Completion Reports, selecting sample reports and verifying the accuracy, completeness and relevance of the data that was used for assumptions and estimations. Checking whether the use of estimates and assumptions in the Estimate at Completion Reports are appropriate.

6. Comparing cost at completion for the same or similar ships and then assessing the reasonableness of the Estimate at Completion Report.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the parent company only financial statements

Management of the Company 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.

~4~

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.

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 of Auditing on 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 judgement and 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.

~5~

1. 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.

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

3. 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 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.

4. 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.

5. 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 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.

~6~

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 of the current period 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.

• (1) On May 1, 1946, Taiwan Machinery and Shipbuilding Company was established by the government, and then was divided into two companies ‘Taiwan Machinery Corporation’ and ‘Taiwan Shipbuilding Corporation (TSBC)’ to split the machinery and shipbuilding business for the purpose of management. In the late 1960s, the government built large shipyards in Xiaogang Kaohsiung which is the current place of business for CSBC CORPORATION, TAIWAN (the “Company”).

• (2) In July 1973, China Shipbuilding Corporation was established by the government. In the early days, most of its labour and techniques were supported by TSBC and they were both reverted to become state - owned companies under the Ministry of Economic Affairs. In January 1978, China Shipbuilding Corporation merged with TSBC and China Shipbuilding Corporation became the surviving company. The Company is primarily engaged in the business of building, manufacturing and repairing of various ships and onshore equipment.

• (3) On March 1, 2007, China Shipbuilding Corporation changed its name to CSBC Corporation, Taiwan.

• (4) The Company became a listed company in December 22, 2008.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these parent company only financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

(1) Compliance statement

The parent company only financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

~15~

(2) Basis of preparation

• A. Except for the following items, these parent company only financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:

• (a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.

• (b) Defined benefit liabilities recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.

• B. The preparation of financial statements in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations that came into effect as endorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the “IFRSs”) requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the parent company only financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.

(3) Foreign currency translation

The parent company only financial statements are presented in New Taiwan Dollar, which is the Company’s functional currency.

• A. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

• B. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the period end are retranslated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising upon re-translation at the balance sheet date are recognised in profit or loss.

• C. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through profit or loss are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through other comprehensive income are retranslated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. However, non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are not measured at fair value are translated using the historical exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.

• D. All foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘other gains and losses’.

~16~

(4) Classification of current and non-current items

The Company is engaged in the business of shipbuilding, vessel building, major machinery building and ship repairing such that the contractual periods of these projects are usually over one year. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of these projects are classified as current assets or liabilities if the period of the project is shorter than the operating cycle; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets or liabilities. The classification criteria of assets and liabilities that are not project related are as follows: Current assets include cash, the assets held for trading or the assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be consumed or to be realized within twelve months from the balance sheet date; property, plant and equipment and other assets that are not classified as current assets are non-current assets. Current liabilities include the liabilities arising mainly from trading activities and are expected to be settled within twelve months from the balance sheet date. The liabilities that are not classified as current liabilities are non-current liabilities.

(5) Cash equivalents

Cash equivalents refer to short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Time deposits that meet the definition above and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments in operations are classified as cash equivalents.

(6) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

• A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets that are not measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income.

• B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.

• C. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets at fair value and recognises the transaction costs in profit or loss. The Group subsequently measures the financial assets at fair value, and recognises the gain or loss in profit or loss.

(7) Financial assets at amortised cost

• A. Financial assets at amortised cost are those that meet all of the following criteria:

• (a) The objective of the Group’s business model is achieved by collecting contractual cash flows.

• (b) The assets’ contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.

• B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at amortised cost are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.

• C. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets at fair value plus transaction costs. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest method. A gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired.

~17~

(8) Accounts and notes receivable

• A. Accounts and notes receivable entitle the Company a legal right to receive consideration in exchange for transferred goods or rendered services.

• B. The short-term accounts and notes receivable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.

(9) Impairment of financial assets

For debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets at amortised cost, at each reporting date, the Company recognises the impairment provision for 12 months expected credit losses if there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition or recognises the impairment provision for the lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) if such credit risk has increased since initial recognition after taking into consideration all reasonable and verifiable information that includes forecasts. On the other hand, for accounts receivable or contract assets that do not contain a significant financing component, the Company recognises the impairment provision for lifetime ECLs.

(10) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognises a financial asset when one of the following conditions is met:

• A. The contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset expire.

• B. The contractual rights to receive cash flows of the financial asset have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset.

• C. The contractual rights to receive cash flows of the financial asset have been transferred; however, the Company has not retained control of the financial asset.

- (11) Leasing arrangements (lessor) operating leases

Lease income from an operating lease (net of any incentives given to the lessee) is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(12) Inventories

The perpetual inventory system is adopted for inventory recognition. Inventories are stated at cost. The cost is determined using the weighted-average method. At the end of period, inventories are evaluated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, and the individual item approach is used in the comparison of cost and net realizable value. The calculation of net realizable value is based on the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, net of estimated costs of completion and estimated selling expenses.

(13) Investments accounted for under the equity method - subsidiaries and associates

• A. Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Company has the power to govern the financials and operating policies. In general, it is presumed that the parent has the power to govern the financials and operating policies, if a parent holds, directly or indirectly, more than half of the voting power of an entity. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using equity method in these parent company only financial statements.

~18~

• B. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between companies within the Company are eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company.

• C. The Company’s share of its subsidiaries’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Company’s share of losses in a subsidiary equals or exceeds its interest in the subsidiary, the Company continues to recognise the losses in proportion to the ownership.

• D. Associates are all entities over which the Company has significant influence but not control. In general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly or indirectly 20 percent or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognised at cost.

• E. The Company’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Company’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Company does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

• F. When changes in an associate’s equity are not recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income of the associate and such changes do not affect the Company’s ownership percentage of the associate, the Company recognises the Company’s share of change in equity of the associate in ‘capital surplus’ in proportion to its ownership.

• G. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Company and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company.

• H. Upon loss of significant influence over an associate, the Company remeasures any investment retained in the former associate at its fair value. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.

• I. When the Company disposes its investment in an associate, if it loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate, are reclassified to profit or loss, on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of. If it still retains significant influence over this associate, then the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately in accordance with the aforementioned approach.

~19~

• J. Pursuant to the “Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers,” profit (loss) of the current period and other comprehensive income in the parent company only financial statements shall equal to the amount attributable to owners of the parent in the consolidated financial statements. Owners’ equity in the parent company only financial statements shall equal to equity attributable to owners of the parent in the consolidated financial statements.

• (14) Investment accounted for using equity method joint ventures

Investment of joint arrangements are classified as joint ventures based on its contractual rights and obligations. Unrealised profits and losses arising from the transactions between the Company and its joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interest in the joint venture. However, when the transaction provides evidence of a reduction in the net realisable value of current assets or an impairment loss, all such losses shall be recognised immediately. When the Company’s share of losses in a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the joint venture together with any other unsecured receivables, the Company does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint venture.

(15) Property, plant and equipment

• A. Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Borrowing costs incurred during the construction period are capitalised.

• B. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

• C. Land is not depreciated. Other property, plant and equipment apply cost model and are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives. Each part of an item of property, plant, and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item must be depreciated separately.

• D. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. If expectations for the assets’ residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets’ future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, from the date of the change. The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Land improvements 5 ～ 50 years Buildings and structures 8 ～ 65 years Machinery and equipment 2 ～ 58 years Transportation equipment 3 ～ 40 years Leasehold improvements 14 years Other equipment 3 ～ 14 years

~20~

(16) Leasing arrangements (lessee) － right-of-use assets/ lease liabilities

• A. Leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Company. For short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

• B. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the remaining lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the incremental borrowing interest rate. Lease payments are comprised of the following:

• (a) Fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable;

• (b) Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate;

• (c) Amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;

• (d) The exercise price of a purchase option, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and

• (e) Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option.

The Company subsequently measures the lease liability at amortised cost using the interest method and recognises interest expense over the lease term. The lease liability is remeasured and the amount of remeasurement is recognised as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset when there are changes in the lease term or lease payments and such changes do not arise from contract modifications.

• C. At the commencement date, the right-of-use asset is stated at cost comprising the following:

• (a) The amount of the initial measurement of lease liability;

• (b) Any lease payments made at or before the commencement date;

• (c) Any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and

• (d) An estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.

The right-of-use asset is measured subsequently using the cost model and is depreciated from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the asset’s useful life or the end of the lease term. When the lease liability is remeasured, the amount of remeasurement is recognised as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset.

• D. For lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease, the lessee shall decrease the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset and remeasure the lease liability to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease, and recognise the difference in profit or loss.

~21~

(17) Investment property

An investment property is stated initially at its cost and measured subsequently using the cost model. Except for land, investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 40~60 years.

(18) Intangible assets

Computer software is stated at cost and amortised on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 5 years.

(19) Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company assesses at each balance sheet date the recoverable amounts of those assets where there is an indication that they are impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. Except for goodwill, when the circumstances or reasons for recognizing impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer exist or diminish, the impairment loss is reversed. The increased carrying amount due to reversal should not be more than what the depreciated or amortised historical cost would have been if the impairment had not been recognised.

(20) Borrowings

Borrowings comprise long-term and short-term bank borrowings. Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

(21) Accounts and notes payable

• A. Accounts payable are liabilities for purchases of raw materials, goods or services and notes payable are those resulting from operating and non-operating activities.

• B. The short-term notes and accounts payable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.

(22) Convertible bonds

Convertible bonds issued by the Company contain conversion options (that is, the bondholders have the right to convert the bonds into the Company’s common shares by exchanging a fixed amount of cash for a fixed number of common shares), call options and put options. The Company classifies the bonds payable upon issuance as a financial asset, a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the contract terms. They are accounted for as follows:

• A. The embedded call options and put options are recognised initially at net fair value as ‘financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss’. They are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value on each balance sheet date; the gain or loss is recognised as ‘gain or loss on valuation of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss’.

~22~

• B. The host contracts of bonds are initially recognised at fair value. Any difference between the initial recognition and the redemption value is accounted for as the premium or discount on bonds payable and subsequently is amortised in profit or loss as an adjustment to ‘finance costs’ over the period of circulation using the effective interest method.

• C. The embedded conversion options which meet the definition of an equity instrument are initially recognised in ‘capital surplus—share options’ at the residual amount of total issue price less the amount of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and bonds payable as stated above. Conversion options are not subsequently remeasured.

• D. Any transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance are allocated to each liability or equity component in proportion to the initial carrying amount of each abovementioned item.

• E. When bondholders exercise conversion options, the liability component of the bonds (including bonds payable and ‘financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss’) shall be remeasured on the conversion date. The issuance cost of converted common shares is the total book value of the abovementioned liability component and ‘capital surplus - share options’.

(23) Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

(24) Non-hedging derivatives

Non-hedging derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and recorded as financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. They are subsequently remeasured at fair value and the gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss.

(25) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date, which is discounted using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

(26) Employee benefits

A. Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in respect of service rendered by employees in a period and should be recognised as expenses in that period when the employees render service.

~23~

B. Pensions

• (a) Defined contribution plans

For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognised as pension expenses when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.

• (b) Defined benefit plans

• i. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Company in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit net obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount is determined by using interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) of a currency and term consistent with the currency and term of the employment benefit obligations.

• ii. Remeasurement arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings.

iii. Past service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

C. Termination benefits

Termination benefits are employee benefits provided in exchange for the termination of employment as a result from either the Company’s decision to terminate an employee’s employment before the normal retirement date, or an employee’s decision to accept an offer of redundancy benefits in exchange for the termination of employment. The Company recognises expense as it can no longer withdraw an offer of termination benefits or it recognises relating restructuring costs, whichever is earlier. Benefits that are expected to be due more than 12 months after balance sheet date shall be discounted to their present value.

• D. Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration

Employees’ remuneration and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognised as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal obligation or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates. If employee compensation is paid by shares, the Company calculates the number of shares based on the closing price at the previous day of the board meeting resolution.

~24~

- (27) Employee share based payment

For the equity-settled share-based payment arrangements, the employee services received are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the grant date, and are recognized as compensation cost over the vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to equity. The fair value of the equity instruments granted shall reflect the impact of market vesting conditions and nonvesting conditions. Compensation cost is subject to adjustment based on the service conditions that are expected to be satisfied and the estimates of the number of equity instruments that are expected to vest under the non-market vesting conditions at each balance sheet date. Ultimately, the amount of compensation cost recognised is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

(28) Income tax

• A. The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or items recognised directly in equity, in which cases the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity.

• B. The current income tax expense is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in accordance with applicable tax regulations. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. An additional tax is levied on the unappropriated retained earnings and is recorded as income tax expense in the year the stockholders resolve to retain the earnings.

• C. Deferred income tax is recognised, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the parent company only balance sheet. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

• D. Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. At each balance sheet date, unrecognised and recognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed.

• E. Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset on the balance sheet when the entity has the legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and they are levied by the same taxation authority on either the same entity or different entities that intend to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

~25~

• F. A deferred tax asset shall be recognised for the carryforward of unused tax credits resulting from acquisitions of equipment or technology, research and development expenditures, employees’ training costs and equity investments to the extent that it is possible that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilised.

(29) Dividends

Dividends are recorded in the Company’s financial statements in the period in which they are resolved by the Company’s shareholders. Cash dividends are recorded as liabilities; stock dividends are recorded as stock dividends to be distributed and are reclassified to ordinary shares on the effective date of new shares issuance.

(30) Revenue recognition

• A. The revenues from construction contracts in relation to shipbuilding, vessel construction and machinery manufacturing are identified to be one performance obligation satisfied over time and are recognised by the percentage-of-completion as of the financial reporting date. The percentage-of-completion is measured based on the percentage of the workload completed to the total expected workload of the contracts. The customer pays at the time specified in the payment schedule. If the services rendered exceed the payment, a contract asset is recognised. If the payments exceed the services rendered, a contract liability is recognised.

• B. The revenues from service contract in relation to ship/vessel repairs and anti-corrosion coating are identified to be one performance obligation satisfied over time and are recognised by the percentage-of-completion as of the financial reporting date. The percentage-of-completion is measured based on the percentage of the actual cost incurred to the total expected cost of the contracts. At the beginning of the contract period, as the Company may find it difficult to estimate the result of obligation performance, it estimates the actual cost incurred for performing obligations which could be recovered. The contract revenue should be recognised only to the extent of actual costs incurred until the result of obligation performance could by measured reasonably.

• C. The Company’s estimate about revenue, costs and percentage-of-completion is subject to a revision whenever there is a change in circumstances. Any increase or decrease in revenue or costs due to an estimate revision is reflected in profit or loss during the period when the management become aware of the changes in circumstances.

• D. As the time interval between the transfer of committed goods or service and the payment of customer does not exceed one year, according to the agreements, the Company does not adjust the transaction price to reflect the time value of money.

• E. The Company classifies its ship leasing business as an operating lease. Lease income from an operating lease (net of any incentives given to the lessee) is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

~26~

(31) Government grants

Government grants are recognised at their fair value only when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with any conditions attached to the grants and the grants will be received. Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognises expenses for the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY

The preparation of these parent company only financial statements requires management to make critical judgements in applying the Company’s accounting policies and make critical assumptions and estimates concerning future events. Assumptions and estimates may differ from the actual results and are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors. Such assumptions and estimates have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year; and the related information is addressed below:

(1) Critical judgements in applying the Company’s accounting policies

None.

(2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

Construction contracts

The Company recognises construction contract revenue and costs using the percentage-of-completion method, wherein the revenue to be recognised is equal to the percentage of completed work out of the total estimated work.

Assumptions for estimated construction cost include cost for equipment, material, labor and etc. Data used for assumptions involves subjective judgement and accounting estimates and are highly uncertain. As a result, assumptions used are material to the total construction cost and further affects the calculation of construction profit.

If the estimated total contract costs had increased / decreased by 1% with all other variables held constant, construction profit for the year ended December 31, 2023 would have decreased by $560,885 or increased by $543,614 (the construction profit for the year ended December 31, 2022 would have decreased by $546,928 or increased by $591,661).

Note 1: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company and a bank consortium signed a 5- year syndicated credit contract, and the final maturity date is in September 2027 (except for guarantee for bond issuance which matures 5 years and 3 months after proceeds from issuance of bonds are collected). The credit facilities are divided into Tranche A and Tranche B. For Tranche A long-term bank borrowings, the first installment is 30 months from the date of the first drawn and every six months is an instalments after that, in a total of 6 installment. 10% of the principal is repayable from the first to the fifth instalments, and the remaining principal is repayable in the sixth installment. Tranche B credit facilities are further divided into Tranche B1 - long-term bank borrowings, Tranche B2 - long-term commercial papers payable and Tranche B3 - guarantee for bond issuance. The Company can withdraw the facility at its discretion. For Tranches B1 and B2, when each drawdown expires, the Company can directly repay the loan principal that is originally expired with the new drawn loan, without actually remitting funds.

~43~

The syndicated credit contract stipulates several financial restrictions, and the Company did not violate those restrictions.

• Note 2: The Company entered into an agreement for recurring issuance (maturity of 60~180 days) of certificates and dealership of commercial papers with the bill finance companies. During the contract term of 2 ~ 3 years, the Company is only liable for the service fees and interest and thus the commercial papers payable is included in long-term borrowings. Both parties shall renegotiate the agreement when the agreement matures.

(19) Deferred revenue

• A. The Republic of China Government started to promote privatization starting from 2008. The Privatization Fund, Executive Yuan, would provide a loan in the amount of $1,500,000 to cover a portion of the shortfall to settle the pension and severance obligation as a result of the privatization. The Company was required to repay the loan to the Privatization Fund in a period of ten years, under the condition that the Company is profitable. As approved by the Executive Yuan in November 2022, the Company can make a yearly repayment starting from 2027. If the earnings after tax in the prior year is below $500 million, the repayment amount is 15% of earnings after tax. If the earnings after tax in the prior year is above $500 million, the repayment amount is the aforementioned ratio plus 20% of earnings after tax exceeding $500 million until the loan is fully repaid. The Company uses the average long-term loan interest rate on the loan for discounting. The discounted values are recorded under “long-term notes payable and payables”. The difference between the discounted value and the amount received is listed in “deferred revenue”. The amounts that are payable within one year are listed in “other financial liabilities-current”. The unamortised amounts are shown below:

Long-term notes and accounts receivable Long-term deferred revenue	December31,2023 675,585 $ 65,915 741,500 $	December31,2022

(20) Pension

• A. (a) The Company has a defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Labor Standards Law, covering all regular employees’ service years prior to the enforcement of the Labor Pension Act on July 1, 2005 and service years thereafter of employees who chose to continue to be subject to the pension mechanism under the Law. Under the defined benefit pension plan, two units are accrued for each year of service for the first 15 years and one unit for each additional year thereafter, subject to a maximum of 45 units. Pension benefits are based on the number of units accrued and the average monthly salaries and wages of the last 6 months prior to retirement. The Company contributes monthly an amount about 13% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the retirement fund deposited with Bank of Taiwan, the trustee, under the name of the independent retirement fund committee. Also, the Company would assess the balance in the aforementioned labor pension reserve account by the end of December 31, every year. The Company has assessed that the balance is sufficient to pay the pension calculated by the aforementioned method, to the employees expected to be qualified for retirement next year.

• (d) The Bank of Taiwan was commissioned to manage the Fund of the Company’s and domestic subsidiaries’ defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Fund’s annual investment and utilisation plan and the “Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilisation of the Labor Retirement Fund” (Article 6: The scope of utilisation for the Fund includes deposit in domestic or foreign financial institutions, investment in domestic or foreign listed, over-the-counter, or private placement equity securities, investment in domestic or foreign real estate securitization products, etc.). With regard to the utilisation of the Fund, its minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall be no less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from two-year time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks. If the earnings is less than aforementioned rates, government shall make payment for the deficit after being authorized by the Regulator. The Company has no right to participate in managing and operating that fund and hence the Company is unable to disclose the classification of plan asset fair value in accordance with IAS 19 paragraph 142. The composition of fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 is given in the Annual Labor Retirement Fund Utilisation Report announced by the government.

• (e) The principal actuarial assumptions used were as follows:

Discount rate Future salary increases	Years endedDecember31,	Years endedDecember31,
	2023 1.50% 3.25%	2022
		1.50%
		3.25%

Future mortality rate is estimated with 70% of the 3rd Taiwan Standard Ordinary Experience Mortality Table. The disability rate is set based on 10% of mortality rate.

~46~

Because the main actuarial assumption changed, the present value of defined benefit obligation is affected. The analysis was as follows:

		Discountrate	Discountrate			Future salary increases	Future salary increases	Future salary increases
	Increase	0.25%	Decrease 0.25%		Increase 0.25%		Decrease 0.25%
Effect on present
value of defined

December 31, 2022	($	34,954)	$	35,912	$	30,588	($	29,976)

The sensitivity analysis above is based on other conditions thate are unchanged but only one assumption is changed. In practice, more than one assumption may change all at once. The method of analysing sensitivity and the method of calculating net pension liability in the balance sheet are the same.

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the previous period.

• (f) Expected contributions to the defined benefit pension plans of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2024 amount to $96,000.

• (g) As of December 31, 2023, the weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligations is 10 years. The distribution of the present value of expected defined benefit obligations (within 10 years) is as follows:

For the year ended December	31,	2024	$	1,793,195
For the year ended December	31,	2025		1,785,397
For the year ended December	31,	2026		1,754,096
For the year ended December	31,	2027		1,745,865
For the year ended December	31,	2028		1,609,526
For the year ended December	31,	2029		1,253,296
For the year ended December	31,	2030		823,912
For the year ended December	31,	2031		556,556
For the year ended December	31,	2032		478,236
For the year ended December	31,	2033		410,282

Note: The same person who meets the retirement conditions will calculate the present value of expected defined benefit obligations in each subsequent year until he/she meets the mandatory retirement age of 65.

~47~

• B. Effective July 1, 2005, the Company has established a defined contribution pension plan (the “New Plan”) under the Labor Pension Act (the “Act”), covering all regular employees with R.O.C. nationality. Under the New Plan, the Company contributes monthly an amount based on 6% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the employees’ individual pension accounts at the Bureau of Labor Insurance. The benefits accrued are paid monthly or in lump sum upon termination of employment. The pension costs under the defined contribution pension plans of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $95,144 and $95,050, respectively.

• (21) Share-based payment

• A. The Company’s share-based payment arrangements were as follows:

Type of arrangement Cash capital increase reserved for employee preemption	Grant date 2023.12.08	Quantity Contract granted period 19,545 NA thousand shares	Vesting conditions
			Vested immediately

The share-based payment arrangements above are settled by equity.

• B. The fair value of stock options granted on grant date is measured using the Black-Scholes optionpricing model. Relevant information is as follows:

Type of arrangement	Grant date	Stock price	Exercise price	Expected price volatility	Expected option life	Expected dividends	Risk-free Fair interest value rate per unit Note 2 3.08 dollars
Cash capital increase reserved for employee preemption	2023.12.08	20.56 dollars	17.50 dollars	17.65% Note 1	26 days	-

• Note 1: Expected price volatility rate was estimated by using the stock prices of the most recent period with length of this period approximate to the length of the stock options’ expected life, and the standard deviation of return on the stock during this period.

• Note 2: It was calculated based on the closing price on the valuation date and interest rate of government bonds in the secondary market announced on the website of Taipei Exchange.

• C. The Company’s expenses arising from equity-settled share-based payment transactions recognised during the year ended December 31, 2023 was $60,198. There was no such transaction for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(25) Retained earnings

• A. Under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the current year’s earnings, if any, shall first be used to pay all taxes and offset prior years’ operating losses and then 10% of the remaining amount shall be set aside as legal reserve until the legal reserve equals the total capital stock balance. Appropriation of the remainder shall be proposed by the Board of Directors and resolved by the stockholders.

• B. As the Company operates in a volatile business environment and is in the stable growth stage, the residual dividend policy is adopted taking into consideration the Company’s financial structure, operating results and future expansion plans. According to the dividend policy adopted by the Board of Directors, at least 10% of the Company’s distributable earnings shall be appropriated as dividends, and cash dividends shall account for at least 10% of the total dividends distributed.

• C. Except for covering accumulated deficit or issuing new stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership, the legal reserve shall not be used for any other purpose. The use of legal reserve for the issuance of stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership is permitted, provided that the balance of the reserve exceeds 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital.

• D. (a) In accordance with the regulations, the Company shall set aside special reserve from the debit balance on other equity items at the balance sheet date before distributing earnings. When debit balance on other equity items is reversed subsequently, the reversed amount could be included in the distributable earnings.

• (b) The amounts previously set aside by the Company as special reserve amounting to $3,201,365 on initial application of IFRSs in accordance with Jin-Guan-Zheng-Fa-Zi Letter No. 1010012865, dated April 6, 2012, shall be reversed proportionately when the relevant assets are used, disposed of or reclassified subsequently. Such amounts are reversed upon disposal or reclassified if the assets are investment property of land, and reversed over the use period if the assets are investment property other than land.

• (c) The Company disposed land in 2013 and 2018. Therefore, the Company reversed special reserve of $34,894 to undistributed earnings.

• E. The proposals for deficit compensation for the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were resolved by the stockholders at the regular stockholders’ meeting on June 28, 2023 and June 22, 2022, respectively. After offsetting the deficit compensation with capital surplus, additional paidin capital of $555,841 and $2,940,035, respectively, the accumulated deficits to be covered were both $0, and thus dividends will not be distributed.

On March 8, 2024, the Board of Directors has proposed the deficit compensation for year 2023.

The total amount of endorsement/ guarantee provided by the Company amounted to $886 million. On November 9, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company during their meeting resolved to cease the endorsement/ guarantee amount to Fuhai Corporation.

Because Fuhai Wind Farm Corporation failed to comply with the regulation of the “Incentive Program of Offshore Wind Power Demonstration System”, the Bureau of Energy exercised the right of performance bond and took back the entire government grant. Accordingly, the Company recognised losses amounting to $75,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018.

B. Financial risk management policies

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, price risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. To minimise any adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company, derivative financial instruments, such as cross currency swap contracts are used to hedge certain exchange rate risk. Derivatives are used exclusively for hedging purposes and not as trading or speculative instruments.

~70~

For supervising management, the Board of Directors has set related rules to authorize the management to perform daily operations within acceptable risk range and requires the internal audit to inspect the management and report on a regular basis. The internal audit must report to the Board of Directors if there is any unusual situation at any time, and respond to the situations adequately.

C. Significant financial risks and degrees of financial risks

• (a) Market risk

Foreign exchange risk

• i. The foreign exchange risk is mainly arising from USD and EUR. Management has set up a policy to companies to manage their foreign exchange risk against their functional currency. The companies are required to hedge their entire foreign exchange risk exposure with the treasury. Exchange rate risk is measured through a forecast of highly probable USD and EUR revenues and expenditures. Forward foreign exchange contracts are adopted to minimise the volatility of the exchange rate affecting forecast foreign currency income and cost of inventory purchases.

• ii. The Company’s businesses involve some non-functional currency operations. The information on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies whose values would be materially affected by the exchange rate fluctuations is as follows:

Financialassets Monetaryitems USD:NTD EUR:NTD JPY:NTD Financial liabilities Monetaryitems USD:NTD Financialassets Monetaryitems USD:NTD Financial liabilities Monetaryitems USD:NTD EUR:NTD	December31,2023	December31,2023

			1,444,454 $ 753,699 115,771 15,411

			2,659,724 $ 31,344 19,324

~71~

• iii. If NTD had appreciated/ depreciated by 1% against USD, EUR and JPY with all other variables held constant, effect to post-tax profit (loss) is as follows:

==> picture [427 x 78] intentionally omitted <==

----- Start of picture text -----

If NTD had appreciated/
depreciated by 1% against tax 2023 2022
Increase (decrease) in net
profit (loss) after tax $ 18,388 $ 20,872
----- End of picture text -----

• iv. The net exchange (loss) gain arising from significant foreign exchange variation on the monetary items held by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, amounted to ($19,329) and $271,482, respectively.

Price risk

The Company is not exposed to significant commodity price risk.

Interest rate risk

• i. The convertible bonds issued by the Company are zero-interest bonds with conversion options, and its fair value is affected by the stock price volatility. Based on the assessment, there is no material change in interest rate that would expose the Company to cash flow risk.

• ii. The Company’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable rates, which expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. If the interest rate had increased/decreased by 0.25% with all other variables held constant, cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 would have increased/decreased by $17,000 and $17,500, respectively.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Company arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. The main factor is that counterparties could not repay in full the accounts receivable and other receivables based on the agreed terms. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.

Cash and cash equivalents and financial assets at amortised cost

The Company only trades with counterparties with good credit, in accordance with the Company’s transaction policies. There is no recent violation of significant cash and cash equivalents and financial assets at amortised cost.

Contract assets, accounts receivable and other receivables

• i. The Company appointed external agency to perform proper credit investigations for customers before signing the contracts of shipbuilding, vessel construction and machinery manufacturing. The results of the credit investigations were low risk, therefore, the credit risks of relevant receivables (primarily under accounts receivable or contract assets) were low risk.

~72~

• ii. The Company’s contract assets and accounts receivable were due from government (including state-owned enterprises) and general business. To maintain the quality of the accounts receivable and contract assets, the Company has established credit risk management procedures for operating. The Company considered customers’ financial status, historical trading record and future economic condition in accordance with types of customer, and took into account factors that may influence customers’ ability to pay to assess the credit quality of customers. The Company estimated expected credit loss by individual assessment.

• iii. In line with credit risk management procedure, when the counterparty failed to fulfil the mutual agreements nor to conduct negotiation, the default has occurred.

• iv. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the expected loss rates of not past due accounts receivable and contract assets were 1% and 0.58%, 1% and 0.455%, respectively.

• After considering the counterparties’ financial status, historical experience and other factors, the expected credit loss based on the individual assessment amounted to $315,838 as of December 31, 2022. There was no such transaction as of December 31, 2023.

• v. Movements in relation to the Company applying the simplified approach to provide loss allowance for accounts receivable and contract assets are as follows:

						2023
			Accounts			Contract
			receivable			assets			Total
At January 1		$	328,691		$	209,508		$	538,199
Reversal of impairment loss	(		319,607)	(		5,416)	(		325,023)
At December 31		$	9,084		$	204,092		$	213,176
						2022
			Accounts			Contract
			receivable			assets			Total
At January 1		$	325,450		$	191,305		$	516,755

At December 31		$	328,691		$	209,508		$	538,199

For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the expected credit gains (losses) arising from accounts receivable and contract assets generated from customers’ contracts amounted to $325,023 and ($21,444), respectively.

• vi. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the balances of receivables and contract assets from the top three counterparties amounted to $3,360,638 and $4,534,022, respectively. The credit risk concentration occurs when the ability of counterparties to meet its contractual obligations is affected by changes in economic or other conditions.

~73~

(c) Liquidity risk

The table below analyses the Company’s non-derivative financial liabilities and net-settled or gross-settled derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date for non-derivative financial liabilities and to the expected maturity date for derivative financial liabilities. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

(3) Fair value estimation

• A. The different levels that the inputs to valuation techniques are used to measure fair value of financial and non-financial instruments have been defined as follows:

• Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. A market is regarded as active where a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The fair value of the Company’s investment in derivative instruments is included in Level 2.

• Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value of the investment property, equity investment without active market and the call and put options embedded in convertible bonds held by the Company is included in Level 3.

• (b) The methods and assumptions the Company used to measure fair value are as follows:

Certain inputs used in the valuation model for measuring the fair value of the Company’s debt instruments with embedded derivatives in are not observable at market, and the Company must make reasonable estimates based on its assumptions. The effect of unobservable inputs to the valuation of financial instruments is provided in Note 12(3)I.

• E. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, there was no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2.

• F. The following chart is the movement of Level 3 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022:

2023 Derivative instrument At January 1 15,896 $ (Gains) losses recognised in profit or loss Recorded as non-operating income and expenses 14,917) ( Converted in the year 95) ( At December 31 884 $ Movement of unrealised (gain) loss in profit or loss of liabilities held as at December 31, 2023 and 2022 (Note) 14,917) ($	2022
	Derivative instrument
	7,045 $ 8,851 -
	15,896 $
	8,851 $

Note: Recorded as non-operating income and expense.

• G. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no transfer into or out from Level 3.

• H. Treasury segment is in charge of valuation procedures for fair value measurements being categorised within Level 3, which is to verify independent fair value of financial instruments using the actuarial reports issued by external experts. Such assessment is to ensure the valuation results are reasonable by applying independent information to make results close to current market conditions, confirming the resource of information is independent, reliable and in line with other resources and represented as the exercisable price, and frequently calibrating valuation model, performing back-testing, updating inputs used to the valuation model and making any other necessary adjustments to the fair value. In addition, the investments in equity investments without active market were evaluated using the net asset value.

~76~

• I. The following is the qualitative information of significant unobservable inputs and sensitivity analysis of changes in significant unobservable inputs to valuation model used in Level 3 fair value measurement:

Hybrid instrument: Options embedded in convertible Hybrid instrument: Options embedded in convertible	Fair value at December31,2023 884 $ Fair value at December 31, 2022 15,896 $	Valuation Range technique Input (weighted average) Binary tree convertible Stock price 20.30 bond valuation model Volatility 29.37% Risk discount rate 1.3698% Valuation Range technique Input (weighted average) Binary tree convertible Stock price 19.50 bond valuation model Volatility 30.23% Risk discount rate 1.4908%

The higher the stock price, the higher the redemption value; the lower the volatility, the lower the redemption value; the lower the risk discount rate, the higher the redemption value. Thus, the redemption value for the year decreased (redemptions are financial assets of the issue company). Put options are also affected by the change in stock price, volatility and risk-free interest rate. The higher the stock price, the lower the put option value; the lower the volatility, the higher the put option value; the lower the risk discount rate, the lower the put option value. Thus, the put option value for the year decreased (put options are financial liabilities of the issue company).

• J. The Company has carefully assessed the valuation models and assumptions used to measure fair value. However, use of different valuation models or assumptions may result in different measurement. The following is the effect of profit or loss from financial assets and liabilities categorised within Level 3 if the inputs used to valuation models have changed:

Input Financial liabilities Hybrid instrument Stock price volatility Input Financial liabilities Hybrid instrument Stock price volatility		December31,2023	December31,2023
	Change ±5%	Recognised in	profit or loss
		Favourable change Unfavourable change 530 $ 884) ($ December31,2022	Unfavourable change
	Change ±5%	Recognised in	profit or loss
		Favourable change Unfavourable change 1,626 $ 2,168) ($	Unfavourable change
