Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Data Image Corporation

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, 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 of the Republic of China.

Basis for the Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by 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 Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. 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.

  • 2 -

The key audit matter identified in Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 is stated as follows:

Occurrence of operating income

Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries are engaged in the design, manufacturing, and sales of LCD touch modules and LCD modules. As LCD touch modules and LCD module manufacturing customize products and make development according to different purposes and needs of customers, the sources of operating income are concentrated on specific customers. Although the operating income in 2023 decreased from the same period of last year, the operating income from specific customers increased from the same period last year, and the occurrence of the related sales transactions has a significant impact on the presentation of the consolidated financial statements; therefore, we include the occurrence of the abovementioned operating income from customers as a key audit matter.

Corresponding audit procedures

Our audit procedures for the key audit matters above include understanding the major internal control design and the effectiveness of implementation, and sampling and implementing relevant audits to ensure that the income transactions occurred.

Other matters

We have also audited the financial statements of Data Image Corporation as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 on which we have issued an unmodified opinion.

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 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 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 Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries’ 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 Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries 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 Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries financial reporting process.

  • 3 -

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 Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries 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 Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries 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 Data Image Corporation and its subsidiaries 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.

  • 4 -

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 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 ShuChuan Yeh and Chih-Ming Shao.

For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022

(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)

I. General information

Data Image Corporation (the "Company") was approved by the Ministry of Economic Affairs on November 22, 1997 for establishment. Its scope of business is the design, manufacturing, and sales of LCD touch modules and LCD modules.

IV. Summary of significant accounting policies

(I) Compliance statement

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRS Accounting Standards endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC.

  • 13 -

  • (II) Basis of preparation

Except for financial instruments at fair value and net defined benefit assets and liabilities recognized at the current value of the defined benefit obligations less the fair value of plan assets, the consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis of historical cost.

The fair value is divided into Level 1 to Level 3 according to the observable degree and importance of the relevant input value:

  1. Level 1 inputs: Refer to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available on the measurement date.

  2. Level 2 inputs: Refer to inputs, other than quoted prices in Level 1, that are observable, either directly (i.e., prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices) for the asset or liability.

  3. Level 3 inputs: Refer to unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

  4. (III) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities

Current assets include:

  1. Assets held mainly for the purpose of trading;

  2. Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and

  3. Cash and cash equivalents (excluding those restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date).

Non-current liabilities include:

  1. Liabilities held mainly for the purpose of trading;

  2. Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and

  3. Liabilities for which the settlement period cannot be unconditionally deferred for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.

Assets or current liabilities that are not classified as above are classified as noncurrent assets or non-current liabilities.

  • (IV) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated company and the entities controlled by the consolidated company (subsidiaries). The operating profit or loss of the acquired subsidiary has been included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income since the acquisition date. The financial statements of the subsidiaries have been appropriately adjusted to make their accounting policies

  • 14 -

consistent with the accounting policies used by the consolidated company. Transactions, balances and any gains or losses within the consolidated company have been eliminated when preparing the consolidated financial statements. The total comprehensive income of the subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and the non-controlling interest, even if the non-controlling interest becomes a deficit balance.

Please refer to Note 11, Table 6 and Table 7 for details of subsidiaries, shareholding ratio and scope of business.

  • (V) Foreign currency

When each entity prepares its financial statements, transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the entity (foreign currency) are translated into functional currency in accordance with the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction date.

Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. The exchange differences arising from the settlement of monetary items or translating monetary items are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which they occur.

Non-monetary items in foreign currency measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate on the transaction date and will not be retranslated.

When preparing the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the consolidated company's foreign operations (including subsidiaries and associates with the country of operation or currency used being different from the consolidated company's) are translated into NTD at the exchange rate prevailing on each balance sheet date. Gaines and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the year. The resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and attributed to the owners of the Company and non-controlling interests, respectively.

(VI) Inventories

Inventories include raw materials, merchandise, finished goods, and work-in-progress. Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The comparison of cost and net realizable value is based on individual items, except for inventories of the same category. The net realizable value refers to the balance of the estimated selling price under normal circumstances, less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated cost of sales. The cost of inventories is calculated by using the weighted average method.

(VII) Investment in associates

An associate is an enterprise in which the consolidated company has significant influence but is not a subsidiary or a joint venture.

The consolidated company adopts the equity method to account for its investment in associates.

  • 15 -

Under the equity method, investments in associates are initially recognized at cost; subsequent to the acquisition date, the carrying amount increases/decreases in accordance with the share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of associates and profit distribution that the consolidated company is entitled to. In addition, the changes in the equity in the associates that the consolidated company is entitled to are recognized based on the shareholding ratio.

The amount of the acquisition cost exceeding the consolidated company's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the associates on the acquisition date is presented as goodwill. The goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and shall not be amortized. The amount by which the consolidated company's share of the net fair worth of identifiable assets and liabilities of the associates on the acquisition date exceeds the acquisition cost is presented as profit or loss of the year.

When assessing impairments, the consolidated company treats the entire carrying amount (including goodwill) of the investment as a single asset for impairment test by comparing its recoverable amount and carrying amount. The impairment losses recognized are not allocated to any asset (including goodwill) that is a component of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of the impairment loss shall be recognized within the scope of the subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of the investment.

The gains or losses arising from the countercurrent, downstream and side-stream transactions between the consolidated company and an associate are recognized in the consolidated financial statements only to the extent that it is irrelevant to the consolidated company's interest in the associate.

(VIII) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Subsequently, it is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated separately for each significant component on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. The consolidated company shall examine the estimated useful life, residual value and depreciation method at least once at the end of each year. Also, the impact of changes in the applicable accounting estimates shall be deferred.

When property, plant and equipment are derecognized, the difference between the net disposal consideration and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss for the year.

(IX) Investment property

An investment property refers to property that is held for earning rental, for asset appreciation or both (including compliance with the definition of an investment property and right-of-use assets). Investment property also includes land held for which the future use has not yet been determined.

  • 16 -

Self-owned investment property is initially measured at cost (including transaction cost). Subsequently, it is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.

The investment property acquired through a lease is initially measured at cost (including the initial measurement of the lease liability). Subsequently, it is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, with the remeasurement of the lease liability adjusted.

Investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis.

When investment property is derecognized, the difference between the net disposal consideration and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss for the year.

  • (X) Goodwill

The goodwill acquired via a business merger is based on the amount of goodwill recognized on the acquisition date as the cost, and the subsequent measurement is the amount of cost less accumulated impairment losses.

For the purpose of the impairment test, the goodwill acquired in a business merger is allocated to each cash-generating unit or cash-generating unit group (the “CGU”) that is expected to benefit from the synergy of the merger.

A CGU with goodwill allocated is tested for impairment annually (or when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired) by comparing the carrying amount of the unit that comprises goodwill and its recoverable amount. If the goodwill allocated to a CGU is acquired through a business merger in the current year, the unit shall be tested for impairment before the end of the current year. If the recoverable amount of the cashgenerating unit with goodwill allocated is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the goodwill of the CGU will be reduced first for the impairment loss, and then the carrying amount of other assets in the unit will be reduced based on the ratio of the carrying amount of the respective asset. Any impairment loss is directly recognized as loss for the period. The impairment loss of goodwill may not be reversed in the subsequent period.

When disposing of a certain operation within the CGUs to which goodwill is allocated, the amount of goodwill related to the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation to determine the disposal gain or loss.

(XI) Intangible assets

1. Acquired separately

Intangible assets with limited useful life acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the useful lives. The consolidated company shall examine the estimated useful life, residual value and depreciation method at least once at the end of each

  • 17 -

year. Also, the impact of changes in the applicable accounting estimates shall be deferred.

  1. Acquired in a business merger

The intangible assets acquired in a business merger are recognized at the fair value on the acquisition date, the goodwill is recognized separately, and the subsequent measurement is the same as the intangible assets acquired separately.

  1. Derecognition

When an intangible asset is derecognized, the difference between the net disposal consideration and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss for the year.

  • (XII) Impairment of property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, investment property and intangible assets (excluding goodwill)

The consolidated company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there are any indications of possible impairment of property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, investment property and intangible assets (excluding goodwill). If there is any indication of impairment, it estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. If the recoverable amount of an individual asset cannot be estimated, the consolidated company estimates the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the asset belongs. Common assets are allocated to the smallest CGU group on a consistent basis.

The recoverable amount is the fair value less the cost of sales and its value in use, whichever is higher. If the recoverable amount of an individual asset or CGU is lower than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is reduced to its recoverable amount, and the impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

When the impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased to the revised recoverable amount. However, the increased carrying amount shall not exceed the carrying amount determined if the asset or CGU had not recognized impairment losses in prior years (less amortization or depreciation). Reversal of impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

(XIII) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheet when the consolidated company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

When financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized, if the financial assets or financial liabilities are not measured at fair value through profit or loss, they are measured at the fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss are immediately recognized in profit or loss.

  • 18 -

(I) Financial assets

Conventional transactions of financial assets are recognized and derecognized using trade date accounting.

  • (1) Measurement type

The types of financial assets held by the consolidated company are financial assets measured at amortized cost, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

  • A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or loss include investments in equity instruments not designated by the consolidated company to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and the dividends and interest generated are recognized in other income and interest income, respectively, and gains or losses arising from remeasurement are recognized in other gains and losses. Please refer to Note 29 for the determination of fair value.

B. Financial assets at amortized cost

If the investment in financial assets of the consolidated company meets the following two conditions at the same time, it is classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost:

  • a. Held within a business model where the objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and

  • b. The terms of the contract give rise to cash flows on a specific date, which are solely for the payment of the principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

After the initial recognition of financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable measured at amortized cost, other receivables, restricted bank deposits and refundable deposits), they are measured at the total carrying amount determined by using the effective interest method less any amortized cost of impairment losses, and any currency exchange gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss.

  • 19 -

Interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate by the total carrying amount of financial assets.

Cash equivalents include time deposits that are highly liquid, readily convertible into fixed amounts of cash at any time with little risk of value changes within three months from the date of acquisition, and bonds with repurchase agreements, which are used to meet short-term cash commitments.

  • C. Investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

The consolidated company may, at initial recognition, make an irrevocable selection to designate investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading and are not contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business merger to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

Investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. When the investment is disposed of, the accumulated gain or loss is directly transferred to the retained earnings and will not be reclassified as profit or loss.

Dividends of investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognized in profit or loss when the consolidated company's right to receive payment is established, unless such dividends clearly represent the recovery of part of the investment cost.

  • (2) Impairment of financial assets

The consolidated company assesses the impairment loss of financial assets at amortized cost (including accounts receivable) based on the expected credit loss (ECL) on each balance sheet date.

The Company recognizes the loss allowance for accounts receivable based on the lifetime ECL. For other financial assets, we first assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition. If there is no significant increase in the credit risk, the allowance for loss is recognized at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs. If there is a significant increase, it is recognized loss allowance at an amount equal to the lifetime ECL.

The expected credit loss is the weighted average credit loss with the risk of default as the weight. The 12-month ECL represents the expected credit loss generated by the possible default of the financial instrument within 12 months after the reporting date, and the lifetime ECL represents the expected

  • 20 -

credit loss generated by all possible defaults of the financial instrument during the expected lifetime of the financial instrument.

The impairment loss of all financial assets is based on the reduction of the carrying amount through the allowance account.

  • (3) Derecognition of financial assets

The consolidated company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset are expired or transferred or when nearly all risks and rewards of ownership of the asset are transferred to another enterprise.

On the derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration received is recognized in profit or loss. When investments in an equity instrument at fair value through other comprehensive income are derecognized entirely, the accumulated gain or loss is directly transferred to retained earnings and will not be reclassified as profit or loss.

  • (II) Equity instruments

The equity instruments issued by the consolidated company are recognized at the acquisition consideration less direct issuance costs.

  • (III) Financial liabilities

  • (1) Subsequent measurement

All financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except for the following:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities held for trading are measured at fair value, and the related gains or losses are recognized in other gains and losses.

  • (2) Derecognition of financial liabilities

When derecognizing a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized as profit or loss.

  1. Derivatives

The consolidated company entered into derivatives, including forward exchange contracts and foreign exchange swap contracts, to manage the consolidated company's exchange rate risk.

  • 21 -

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value when a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value on the balance sheet date, with the gain or loss arising from subsequent measurements recognized directly in profit or loss. When the fair value of a derivative financial instrument is positive, the derivative is classified as a financial asset; when the fair value of the derivative is negative, it is classified as a financial liability.

(XIV)Provisions

The amount recognized as provisions takes into account the risks and uncertainties of the obligation and is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date. Provisions is measured based on the estimated cash flow to settle the present obligation.

The warranty obligation to ensure that the product conforms to the agreed specifications is based on the management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the consolidated company's obligation and is recognized upon the income recognition of relevant products.

(XV) Revenue recognition

After the consolidated company identifies the performance obligation in the customer contract, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation, and revenue is recognized when each performance obligation is satisfied.

1. Sale of goods

The consolidated company recognizes revenue when the control over the product is transferred. That is, when the product arrives at the customer's designated location, the customer is entitled to set the price and use the product, bears the main responsibility for resale, and assumes the obsolescence risk; the consolidated company recognizes revenue and accounts receivable at that time point.

For processing without imported materials, the control of the ownership of the processed products has not been transferred; therefore, materials are not recognized as revenue.

2. Provision of services

Service revenue is the provision of product processing services; that is, it is recognized when the processed products arrive at the designated location of the customer.

(XVI)Leases

The consolidated company assesses whether the contract is (or contains) a lease on the date of establishment of the contract.

  • 22 -

  • The consolidated company as the lessor

All leases are classified as operating leases.

Under operating leases, lease payments less lease incentives are recognized as gains on a straight-line basis over the relevant lease term.

  1. The consolidated company as the lessee

Except for low-value asset leases and short-term leases to which a recognition exemption applies, for which lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized for other leases on the lease commencement date.

The right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost (including the initially measured amount of the lease liabilities) and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, and adjusted for the remeasured amount of the lease liability. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets.

The right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the end of the service life or the expiration of the lease term, whichever is earlier.

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of lease payments (including fixed payments). If the lease implied interest rate can be easily determined, the lease payment is discounted at the said interest rate. If such interest rate cannot be easily determined, the lessee's incremental borrowing interest rate shall apply.

Subsequently, the lease liabilities are measured at the amortized cost using the effective interest method, and the interest expense is amortized over the lease term. If there is a change in future lease payments during the lease term, the consolidated company remeasures the lease liability and adjusts the right-of-use asset accordingly. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero, the remaining remeasurement amount shall be recognized in profit or loss. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets.

(XVII) Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognized as profit or loss during the year of occurrence.

(XVIII) Employee benefits

  1. Short-term employee benefits

The liabilities related to short-term employee benefits are measured at the nondiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for employee services.

  • 23 -

2. Retirement benefits

For the pension under the defined contribution plan, the amount of pension to be contributed is recognized as expenses during the service period of the employees.

The defined benefit cost of the defined benefit pension plan (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) is actuated using the projected unit benefit method. Service cost and net interest of net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are recognized as employee benefit expenses as they occur. Remeasurement (including actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, net of interest) is recognized in other comprehensive income at the time of occurrence and included in retained earnings, and will not be reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.

The net defined benefit liability (asset) is the appropriation deficit (surplus) of the defined benefit pension plan. The net defined benefit assets shall not exceed the present value of the refundable contributions from the plan or the reduced future contributions.

(XIX)Taxation

Income tax expenses represent the sum of current tax and deferred tax.

1. Current tax

The consolidated company determines the income (loss) of the current period in accordance with the regulations of each jurisdiction for income tax filings and calculates the income taxes payable (recoverable) accordingly.

In accordance with the Income Tax Act of the R.O.C., an additional tax on unappropriated earnings is recognized in the year when a resolution is adopted at a shareholders' meeting.

Adjustments to income tax payable from prior years are recognized in the current tax.

  1. Deferred tax

Deferred tax is calculated based on the temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and the tax bases for calculating taxable income.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized based on all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized when it is probable that taxable income will be available to deduct the temporary differences.

The taxable temporary differences related to the investment in subsidiaries and associates are recognized as deferred tax liabilities. However, if the consolidated company can control the time point of the temporary difference

  • 24 -

reversal, and the temporary difference is likely to be reversed in the foreseeable future, excluding those that will not be reversed. The deductible temporary difference related to such investment is recognized as deferred tax assets only when it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income to realize the temporary difference, and it is expected to be reversed in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date, and the carrying amount is reduced if it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the recovery of the assets. For those not recognized as deferred tax assets initially, they are also being reviewed at each balance sheet date, and the carrying amount is increased if it is probable that taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the recovery of the assets.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates in the period in which the liabilities are expected to be settled or assets realized based on tax rates and tax laws that have been substantially enacted on the balance sheet date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would arise from the manner in which the consolidated company expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date.

  1. Current and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax is recognized in profit or loss, except for the current and deferred tax related to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

If the current tax or deferred tax arises from the acquisition of a subsidiary, the income tax effect is included in the accounting treatment of the investment in the subsidiary.

V. Major sources of uncertainty in major accounting judgments, estimates, and assumptions

When adopting accounting policies, the consolidated company's management shall make judgments, estimates and assumptions that are based on historical experiences and other factors that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from estimates. The management will continue to review the estimates and basic assumptions. The accounting policies, estimates and basic assumptions adopted by the consolidated company have been evaluated by the management of the consolidated company, and there are no significant accounting judgment, estimate and assumption uncertainties.

(I) Accounts receivable

The consolidated company's average credit period for sales is upon shipment or O/A 30 to 160 days. No interest is accrued on accounts receivable. The consolidated company shall consider the changes in the credit quality from the initial credit date to the balance sheet date. The consolidated company will use publicly available financial information and historical transaction records to rate new customers and major customers, respectively. The consolidated company continuously monitors the credit exposure and the credit rating of the counterparties and manages the exposure through second reviews and the approval of credit limits for counterparties.

The consolidated company recognizes the loss allowance for accounts receivable based on the lifetime ECL. The lifetime ECLs are calculated using an allowance matrix, which takes into account the customer's past default history and current financial position. As the consolidated company's credit loss history shows that there is no significant difference in the loss patterns of different customer groups, the allowance matrix does not further divide the customer groups and only sets the ECL rate based on the number of days past due on accounts receivable.

If there is evidence that the counterparty is facing serious financial difficulties and the consolidated company cannot reasonably expect to recover the amount, the consolidated company will directly write off the relevant accounts receivable; however, it will continue to collect the receivables. The amount recovered through collection is recognized in profit or loss.

The consolidated company's loss allowance on accounts receivable measured based on the allowance matrix is as follows:

XXII.Retirement benefit plan

(I) Defined contribution plan

The pension system under the "Labor Pension Act" applicable to the Company, DIVA Laboratories, Ltd., and Panoramic Imaging Solutions Inc. of the consolidated company is a state-managed defined contribution pension plan. 6% of the monthly salary of employees is appropriated to the personal account at the Bureau of Labor Insurance.

The employees of the consolidated company's subsidiaries in China are members of the pension benefit plan managed by the Chinese government. The overseas subsidiaries are subject to the local pension regulations. Such subsidiaries are required to appropriate a specific percentage of the salary cost to the pension benefit plan to provide funds for the plan. The obligation of the consolidated company for the pension plan managed by the government is only to appropriate a specific amount.

(II) Defined benefit plan

The pension system adopted by the consolidated company and DIVA Laboratories, Ltd. in accordance with the "Labor Standards Act" in Taiwan is a state-managed defined benefit pension plan. The payment of employee pension is based on the years of service and the average salary of the six months before the approved retirement date. The consolidated company appropriates 2% to 5% of the total monthly salary of employees as the pension fund, which is deposited by the Labor Pension Reserve Supervisory Committee in the name of the committee in the bank at the Bank of Taiwan. Before the end of the year, if it is estimated that the balance in the account is not sufficient to pay for employees who are expected to meet the retirement requirements in the following year, the difference will be appropriated in a lump sum before the end of March of the following year. The account is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor. The consolidated company has no right to affect the investment management strategy.

The amount of the defined benefit plan presented in the consolidated balance sheet is as follows:

The consolidated company is exposed to the following risks due to the pension system under the "Labor Standards Act":

  1. Investment risk: The Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor, invest labor pension funds in domestic (foreign) equity securities, debt securities, bank deposits, and other targets through self-utilization or commissioned operation; however, the distributable amount of the plan assets of the consolidated company shall not be less than the gains calculated based on the interest rate of two-year deposits with local banks.

  2. 42 -

  3. Interest risk: A decrease in the interest rate of government bonds will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, the return on the debt investment of the plan assets will also increase, which will have a partially offsetting effect on the net defined benefit liability.

  4. Salary risk: The calculation of the present value of the determined benefit obligation is based on the future salary of the members of the plan. Therefore, an increase in the salary of the plan members will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

The present value of the consolidated company's defined benefit obligation was actuarially determined by a qualified actuary. The significant assumptions on the measurement date are as follows:

measurement date are as follows:
Discount rate
Expected rate of salary increase
December 31, 2023
1.2%
2.5%
December 31, 2022
1.3%
2.5%

If there are reasonable and possible changes in the major actuarial assumptions, and all other assumptions remain unchanged, the amount of increase (decrease) in the present value of the defined benefit obligation will be as follows:

December 31, 2023
December 31, 2022

Decrease by 1.00%

($ 1,107)
As actuarial assumptions may be interrelated, the change in a single assumption is
unlikely; therefore, the above sensitivity analysis may not be able to reflect the actual
change in the present value of defined benefit obligations.

In order to introduce strategic investors and meet the capital needs for future operations, the Company's shareholders' meeting on June 20, 2018 resolved to carry out a capital increase in cash through the private placement of 20,000 thousand ordinary shares. On November 7, 2018, the Board approved the resolution that the intended place for the private placement of ordinary shares shall be Qisda Corporation, the base day for the capital increase shall be November 20, 2018, and the issuance shall be made in premium at $13 per share. The capital increase in cash through the private placement raised a total of $260,000 thousand in cash and issued 20,000 thousand shares.

Note:The capital surplus can be used to make up for losses, and can be used to distribute cash or capitalize on share capital when the Company has no losses. However, it shall be limited to a certain ratio of the paid-in capital each year when capitalizing on share capital.

(III) Retained earnings and dividend policy

According to the Articles of Incorporation, the Company authorizes the Board to make a special resolution to distribute dividends and bonuses that should be distributed, in the form of cash, and report to the shareholders' meeting.

In accordance with the earning distribution policy of the Articles of Incorporation, if there is a profit in the final accounting, the Company shall pay tax and make up past losses, and then appropriate 10% as the legal reserve. However, when the legal reserve amounts to the Company's paid-in capital, the appropriation is not required. For the remaining, it shall appropriate or reverse the special reserve according to laws and regulations. If there is any remaining balance, the Board shall prepare a proposal for the distribution of the earnings, together with the accumulated unappropriated earnings, and submit it to the shareholders' meeting for resolution on the distribution of dividends to shareholders. Regarding the distribution policies for the remuneration of employees and remuneration of Directors specified in the Articles of Incorporation, please refer to Note 25(7) Remuneration of employees and remuneration of Directors.

The Company’s dividend policy complies with the current and future development plans, taking investment environments, capital requirements, and domestic/foreign competition status into account, and considers shareholders’ interest and other factors. Shareholders’ dividends or bonuses may be distributed in cash or stocks, in which cash dividends shall be no less than 10% of the total dividend.

The legal reserve shall be appropriated until the balance reaches the paid-in capital of the Company. Legal reserves may be used to offset losses. If the legal reserve exceeds 25% of the paid-in capital, and when the Company has no losses, it can be appropriate to capital and distributed in cash.

(IV) Financial risk management objectives and policies

The financial risks related to the operating activities of the consolidated company are mainly market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. Except for market risk, which is mainly affected by external factors and is unpredictable, the remaining two risks can be generally controlled or eliminated through internal control or operating procedures. Therefore, in response to changes in market risks, the consolidated company uses appropriate financial instrument operations to reduce the adverse effects that market risks may have on the consolidated company's financial status and financial performance.

1. Market risk

The market risks to which the consolidated company is exposed to mainly include exchange rate risk and interest rate risk.

(1) Exchange rate risk

The consolidated company engages in foreign currency-denominated sales and purchase transactions, resulting in exchange rate risk. The consolidated company manages its exposure to exchange rate risk using forward exchange contracts to the extent permitted by the policy.

For the carrying amounts of the consolidated company's monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies on the balance sheet date (including monetary items denominated in nonfunctional currencies that have been written off in the consolidated financial statements), please refer to Note 33.

Sensitivity analysis

The consolidated company is mainly affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate of the USD.

The following table details the sensitivity analysis of the consolidated company when the exchange rate of NTD (functional currency) increases and decreases by 1% against each relevant foreign currency. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding monetary items in foreign currencies and forward exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges, and adjusts their year-end translation by a 1% change in exchange rates. A positive number in the following table represents the amount of increase (decrease) in net profit before tax when NTD strengthens by 1% against USD; when NTD depreciates by 1% against USD, the impact on net profit before tax will be the same amount in negativity.

(2) Interest rate risk

The consolidated company's risk of changes in interest rates mainly comes from short-term borrowings and long-term borrowings with fixed and floating interest rates. Changes in market interest rates will change the effective interest rate of borrowings, resulting in the risk of changes in the future fair value and cash flow.

The carrying amounts of the consolidated company's financial assets and financial liabilities that are exposed to the interest rate risk on the balance sheet date are as follows:

Fair value interest rate risk

Financial liabilities
Cash flow interest rate risk

Sensitivity analysis

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposure of the non-derivatives on the balance sheet date. For liabilities with floating interest rates, the analysis method is based on the assumption that the amount of liabilities outstanding on the balance sheet date is outstanding throughout the reporting period.

If the interest rate increases/decreases by 1%, and all other variables remain unchanged, the consolidated company's net profit before tax for 2023 and 2022 will increase/decrease by $5,132 thousand and $3,694 thousand, respectively.

2. Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk related to defaults of counterparties on their contractual obligations that result in the risk of financial losses of the Group. As of the balance sheet date, the consolidated company's maximum credit risk exposure that may be due to a counterparty's failure to perform its obligations is mainly derived from the carrying amount of the financial assets recognized in the consolidated balance sheet.

To mitigate credit risk, the consolidated company's management has assigned a dedicated team to be responsible for credit limit determination, credit approval and other monitoring procedures to ensure that appropriate actions have been taken in the recovery of overdue receivables. In addition, the consolidated company reviews the recoverable amounts of amounts receivable on a case-bycase basis on the balance sheet date to ensure that appropriate impairment losses have been provided for uncollectible amounts receivable. Accordingly, the

  • 59 -

consolidated company's management considers that the consolidated company's credit risk has been significantly reduced.

Regarding the consolidated company's accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the amounts due from Company A, Company B, and Company C were $74,057 thousand and $76,832 thousand, $26,744 thousand and $124,485 thousand, as well as $66,295 thousand and $5,317 thousand, respectively, and the counterparties of the remaining amounts receivable cover multiple customers who are separated in different industries and geographical areas. The consolidated company continuously evaluates the financial position of customers with amounts receivable customers.

3. Liquidity risk

The consolidated company maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents to meet the cash requirements for operating activities through accounts and financing management and reduce the impact of cash flow fluctuations. The consolidated company's Finance Department monitors the use of bank financing limits at all times and ensures compliance with the terms of borrowing contracts.

Liquidity and interest rate risk table of non-derivative financial liabilities

The maturity analysis for the remaining contracts of non-derivative financial liabilities is based on the date on which the consolidated company may be required to make repayments and is prepared according to the undiscounted cash flow of financial liabilities (including the principal and estimated interest). Therefore, the consolidated company may be required to immediately repay the bank borrowings, which is within the earliest period in the table below, regardless of the probability that the bank may immediately exercise its right; the maturity analysis of other non-derivative financial liabilities is prepared based on the agreed repayment dates.

For the interest cash flow paid at floating interest rates, the undiscounted interest amount is inferred based on the yield curve on the balance sheet date.

The maturity date of the non-interest-bearing financial liabilities accounted for in the consolidated company's current liabilities is within one year, and the Company was not required to immediately settle such financial liabilities. The deposits received in the non-current financial liabilities are mainly deposited by customers as credit guarantees with no specific maturity date.
