Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Double Bond Chemical Ind. Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Double Bond Chemical Ind. Co., Ltd. (the Company), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the individual financial statements, including the summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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 judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matters for the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 are stated as follows:

Recognition of Sales Revenue

The Company's revenue is mainly contributed to from the sale of various chemical raw materials, coating monomers/oligomers, industrial additives, and specialty chemicals. Given the significant fluctuations in major customers and the potential impact of revenue amounts and variances on the users' understanding of the overall financial statements, we have identified the occurrence of revenue from major customers—specifically those with significant


year-over-year growth or newly acquired in 2025 as Key Audit Matter. Consequently, we assessed the authenticity of sales revenue from these specific customers as a Key Audit Matter. For accounting policies and information related to revenue recognition, please refer to Notes 4, and 21.

Regarding this Key Audit Matter, our primary audit procedures included:

  1. Understanding and testing the design and operating effectiveness of key internal controls concerning the authenticity of sales revenue from major customers.
  2. Sampling and inspecting transaction documents for major customers, including sales orders and shipping documents.
  3. Sampling and reviewing collections from major customers to verify the authenticity of sales revenue, and confirming whether any significant sales returns occurred after the reporting period to ensure that the operating revenue actually occurred.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the 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 financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the 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 supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 auditing standards in 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 financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the individual financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those

  2. 3 -


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.

  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 financial statements or, if such disclosure 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 financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the individual financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  5. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence on the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit and 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 compiled 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 financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 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.

IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” and consequential amendments

IFRS 18 will supersede IAS 1” Presentation of Financial Statements”. The main changes comprise:

  • To classify items of income and expenses presented in the statement of profit or loss into the operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations categories, the Company shall assess whether it has specified main business activities of investing in particular types of assets and providing financing to customers.
  • The statement of profit or loss shall present totals and subtotals for operating profit or loss, profit or loss before financing and income taxes and profit or loss.
  • Provides guidance to enhance the requirements of aggregation and disaggregation: The Company shall identify the assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows that arise from individual transactions or other events and shall classify and aggregate them into groups based on shared characteristics, so as to result in the presentation in the primary financial statements of line items that have at least one similar characteristic. The Group shall disaggregate items with dissimilar characteristics in the primary financial statements and in the notes. The Company labels items as “other” only if it cannot find a more informative label.

  • 13 -


  • Disclosures on Management-defined Performance Measures (MPMs): When in public communications outside financial statements and communicating to users of financial statements management’s view of an aspect of the financial performance of the Company as a whole, the Company shall disclose related information about its MPMs in a single note to the financial statements, including the description of such measures, calculations, reconciliations to the subtotal or total specified by IFRS Accounting Standards and the income tax and non-controlling interests effects of related reconciliation items.

In addition, the following consequential amendments have been made to IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”:

The Company shall use operating profit or loss as the starting point when presenting cash flows from operating activities under the indirect method.

Interest and dividends received by the Company shall be classified as investing activities, while interest and dividends paid shall be classified as financing activities. However, if, after assessment, the Company has a specific main operating activity, it shall determine how to classify dividends received, interest received and interest paid in the statement of cash flows by referring to how it classifies dividend income, interest income and interest expense in the statement of profit or loss. The total of each of these cash flows shall be classified in a single category in the statement of cash flows.

Except for the above impact, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Company is continuously assessing the other impacts of the above amended standards and interpretations on the Group’s financial position and financial performance and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed.

IV. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(I) Statement of Compliance

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

(II) Basis of Preparation

The accompanying parent company only financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value and the net defined benefit liabilities recognized by the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of the project assets.

The fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

  1. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

  2. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted price including within Level 1 that are

  3. 14 -


observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices);

  1. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

When preparing the parent company only financial statements, the Company account for subsidiaries and associates by using the equity method. In order to agree with the amount of net income, other comprehensive income and equity attributable to shareholders of the parent in the consolidated financial statements, the differences of the accounting treatment between the parent only basis and the consolidated basis are adjusted under the heading of "investments accounted for using equity method", "share of profits of subsidiaries and associates", and "share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries and associates in the parent company only financial statements".

(III) Classification of Current and Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities

Current assets include:

  1. Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
  2. Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting period; and
  3. Cash and cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

Current liabilities include:

  1. Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
  2. Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period, even if an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long-term basis is completed after the reporting period and before the financial statements are authorized for issue; and
  3. Liabilities for which the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the opinion of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as noncurrent.

(IV) Foreign Currencies

In preparing the parent company only financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the date of the transactions.

At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Such exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which they arise.

Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value is determined. Exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized

  • 15 -

directly in other comprehensive income; in which cases, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currencies are not retranslated.

For the purposes of presenting parent company only financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign operations (including the subsidiaries and associates in other countries or currencies used are different from the functional currency of the Company) are translated into NT$ using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity.

If the company disposes of all interests of foreign operating agency, or dispose of part of the interests of a subsidiary to a foreign operating agency but lose control, or the retained interest after the disposal of the affiliated enterprise of the foreign operating agency is a financial asset treated in accordance with the accounting policy of the financial instrument, all accumulated exchange differences associated with this foreign operating agency will be reclassified to profit or loss.

If a partial disposal of a subsidiary to a foreign operating agency does not result in loss of control, the accumulated exchange difference is incorporated into the equity transaction calculation on a pro rata basis, but is not recognized as profit or loss. For all other partial disposals of foreign operating agency, the accumulated exchange difference is reclassified to profit or loss according to the proportion of the disposal.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments recognized on identifiable assets and liabilities of acquired foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

(V) Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at the weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date.

(VI) Investment in Subsidiaries

Investments accounted for using the equity method include investments in subsidiaries. A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the Company.

Under the equity method, an investment in a subsidiary is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company's share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the subsidiary as well as the distribution received. The Company also recognized its share in the changes in the equity of subsidiaries.

  • 16 -

Changes in the Company's ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Company losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the carrying amount of the subsidiary and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.

When the Company's share of losses of a subsidiary exceeds its interest in that subsidiary (which includes any carrying amount of the investment accounted for by the equity method and long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company's net investment in the subsidiary), the Company continues recognizing its share of future losses.

The amount of the acquisition cost exceeding the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries that constitutes a business acquired by the Company at the date of acquisition is classified as goodwill, which is included in the carrying amount of the investment and may not be amortized. Any excess of the Company's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary that constitutes a business over the cost of acquisition at the date of acquisition is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

When the Company evaluates the impairment, it considers the cash-generating unit as a whole in the financial report and compares its recoverable amount with the carrying value. If the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases, the Company recognizes a reversal of the impairment loss; the adjusted post-reversal carrying amount should not exceed the carrying amount that would have been recognized net of amortization had no impairment loss been recognized in prior years. The impairment loss attributable to goodwill shall not be reversed during the subsequent period.

When the Company losses control of a subsidiary, any retained investment of the former subsidy is measured at the fair value at that date. A gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss and calculated as the difference between (a) the aggregate of the fair value of consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest at the date when control is lost; and (b) the previous carrying amount of the investments in such subsidiary. In addition, the Company shall account for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary on the same basis as would be required if the subsidiary had directly disposed of the related assets and liabilities.

When the Company transacts with its subsidiaries, profits and losses resulting from the downstream transactions with the subsidiaries shall be eliminated if they are not realized in the Company's parent company only financial statements. On the other hand, profits and losses resulting from the upstream & sidestream transactions with the subsidiaries are recognized in the Company's parent company only financial statements only to the extent of interests in the subsidiaries that are not owned by the Company.

(VII) Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and

  • 17 -

accumulated impairment.

Property, plant and equipment in the course of construction are measured at cost less any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. Such assets are depreciated and classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for their intended use.

Except for freehold land which is not depreciated, the depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recognized using the straight-line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The estimated useful lives, residual values, and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.

On derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

(VIII) Intangible Assets

  1. Separate Acquisition

Other separately acquired intangible assets with finite useful lives are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

  1. Derecognition

On derecognition of an intangible asset, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

(IX) Impairment of property, plant and equipment, right-of-use asset, and intangible assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment, right-of-use asset, and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Corporate assets are allocated to the individual cash-generating units on a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually and whenever there is an indication that the assets may be impaired.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to

  • 18 -

its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

Before the Company recognizes an impairment loss from assets related to contract costs, any impairment loss on inventories, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets related to the contract applicable under IFRS 15 shall be recognized in accordance with applicable standards. Then, impairment loss from the assets related to the contract costs is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the remaining amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for related goods or services less the costs which relate directly to providing those goods or services and which have not been recognized as expenses. The assets related to the contract costs are then included in the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit to which they belong for the purpose of evaluating impairment of that cash-generating unit.

When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the corresponding asset, cash-generating unit or assets related to contract costs is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized on the asset, cash-generating unit or assets related to contract costs in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

(X) Financial Instruments

Financial assets and liabilities shall be recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Financial assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

  1. Financial Assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.

(1) Measurement category

Financial assets held by the Company can be categorized into financial assets measured at amortized cost and investment in equity instrument measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

A. Financial assets measured at amortized cost

If the Company's investment in financial assets meets the following 2 criteria, it will be classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost.

a. Financial assets are held under a business model in which the purpose of the model is to hold financial assets so that the contractual cash flows can be

  • 19 -

collected;

b. The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial asset measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable at amortized cost, accounts receivable, accounts receivable from related parties, other receivables, other receivables from related parties and refundable deposits) is measured at the total carrying value determined by the effective interest method less amortized cost of any impairment loss after initial recognition, while any gains and losses generated from foreign currency exchange are recognized in profit or loss.

Except for the following two cases, interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate by the total carrying value of the financial assets:

a. The interest income of purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets is calculated by multiplying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate by the amortized cost of financial assets.

b. For non-purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets that subsequently become credit-impaired financial assets, the interest income should be calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate by the amortized cost of the financial assets from the second reporting period after the credit impairment.

A financial asset is credit impaired when one or more of the following events have occurred:

a. Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower;

b. Breach of contract, such as a default;

c. It is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or undergo a financial reorganization; or

d. The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

Cash equivalents include time deposits with original maturities within 3 months from the date of acquisition, which are highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.

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

On initial recognition, the Company may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation as at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.

  • 20 -

Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the equity investments; instead, it will be transferred to retained earnings.

Dividends on these investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are recognized in profit or loss when the Company's right to receive the dividends is established, unless the Company's rights clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.

(2) Impairment of financial assets

At the end of each reporting period, a loss allowance for expected credit loss is recognized for financial assets at amortized cost (including accounts receivable).

The loss allowance for accounts receivable is measured at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. For financial assets at amortized cost and investments in debt instruments that are measured at FVTOCI, when the credit risk on the financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, a loss allowance is recognized at an amount equal to expected credit loss resulting from possible default events of a financial instrument within 12 months after the reporting date. If, on the other hand, there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is recognized at an amount equal to expected credit loss resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

The expected credit loss is the weighted average credit loss measured by the risk of default; the 12-month expected credit loss represents the expected credit loss arising from the possible default of the financial instrument within 12 months after the reporting date; the expected credit losses during the lifetime represent the expected credit losses arising from all possible defaults of the financial instrument over its expected lifetime.

The Company recognizes an impairment loss in profit or loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account, except for investments in debt instruments that are measured at FVTOCI, for which the loss allowance is recognized in other comprehensive income and does not reduce the carrying amount of the financial asset.

(3) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset to other entity.

On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the

  • 21 -

difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of an investment in a debt instrument at FVTOCI, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss which had been recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss. However, on derecognition of an investment in an equity instrument at FVTOCI, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss, and the cumulative gain or loss which had been recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred directly to retained earnings, without recycling through profit or loss.

2. Equity instruments

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified either as financial liability or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual agreement and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Repurchase of the Company's own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company's own equity instruments.

3. Financial liabilities

(1) Subsequent measurement

Except for financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, all financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

A. Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when such financial liabilities are either held for trading or are designated as at FVTPL.

Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 7.

(2) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid (including any transferred non-cash assets or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss.

(XI) Revenue recognition

After identifying the performance obligation in a customer contract, the company distributes the transaction price to each one of the performance obligations and recognizes the revenue when the performance obligations are met.

Sale of goods

Sale of goods mainly comes from the sale of various chemical raw materials, coating monomers/oligomers, industrial additives and specialty chemicals for textile. Since the customer has the right to set the price and dispose of the goods and has the primary

  • 22 -

responsibility for reselling and bearing the risk of obsolete goods when the goods are delivered to the customer's designated location or the goods are shipped, the company will recognize revenue and accounts receivable at these timings. Sale of goods collected in advance is recognized as contract liabilities before the good arrives.

When material processing is performed, the control of the ownership of the processed product is neither transferred nor recognized.

(XII) Leasing

At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.

  1. The Company as lessor

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of a lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Lease payments less any lease incentives payable from operating leases are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the relevant leases.

  1. The Company as a lessee

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of a lease, except for short-term leases and low-value asset leases accounted for applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.

Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities adjusted for lease payments made at or before the commencement date. Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the parent company only balance sheets.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease terms.

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, which comprise fixed payment. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in a lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the lessee's incremental borrowing rate.

Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease terms. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the parent company only balance sheets.

(XIII) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are

  • 23 -

substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

In accordance with the requirements, investment income earned from the temporary investment of specific borrowings prior to the occurrence of capital expenditures is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.

Other than as stated above, all other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

(XIV) Government grants

Government grants are not recognized until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to them and that the grants will be received.

Government grants related to income are recognized in other income on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognizes as expenses the related costs that the grants intend to compensate. Specifically, government grants whose primary condition is that the Company should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognized as deferred revenue and transferred to profit or loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful lives of the related assets.

Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Company with no future related costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are received.

Government grants that take the form of a transfer of a non-monetary asset for the use of the entity are recognized and measured at the fair value of the non-monetary asset.

The benefit of a government loan received at a below-market rate of interest is treated as a government grant measured as the difference between the proceeds received and the fair value of the loan based on prevailing market interest rates.

(XV) Employee benefits

  1. Short-term employee benefits

Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the un-discounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related service.

  1. Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions. Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) under the defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected until credit method. Service cost (including current service cost and past service cost) and net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset) are recognized as employee benefits expense in the period they occur. Remeasurement (comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets less interest) is recognized in

  • 24 -

other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.

Net defined benefit liability (asset) represents the actual deficit (surplus) in the Company's defined benefit plan. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.

(XVI) Share-based payment: employee stock options

Employee stock options

Employee stock options are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lifetime based on the fair value of equity instrument and estimated optimal quantity on the grant date. At the same time, the capital surplus - employee stock options are also adjusted and recognized on the grant date. It is recognized as an expense in full at the grant date if vested immediately. Organizing capital increase by cash and retaining employee subscription, the Company defined the date of notification as the grant date

The Company revised the estimated number of expected employee stock options at the end of each reporting period. If the original estimated quantity is rectified, the effect is recognized as profit and loss so that the cumulative expenses reflect the revised estimate and the capital surplus-employee stock option is adjusted relatively.

(XVII) Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

  1. Current tax

According to the Income Tax Law in the ROC, an additional tax on unappropriated earnings is provided for in the year the shareholders approve to retain earnings.

Adjustments of prior years' tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year's tax provision.

  1. Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences, unused loss carryforward, unused tax credits for purchases of machinery and equipment, research and development expenditure and personnel training expenditures to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets

  • 25 -

arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

  1. Current tax and deferred tax for the year

Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current tax and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

V. Critical Accounting Judgments and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

In the application of the Company's accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The Company considers the possible impact of inflation, interest rate fluctuations and volatility in foreign currency markets when making its critical accounting estimates on cash flows, growth rates, discount rates, profitabilities, etc. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

The average credit period of the Company's sales of goods is 60 days, and the accounts receivable are not interest-bearing. The impairment assessment of receivables is based on the past default history of the counterparty and its current financial position to estimate the amount that cannot be recovered.

In order to reduce credit risk, the management of the Company assigns a dedicated team responsible for deciding credit lines, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures so that appropriate actions are taken to recover overdue receivables. In addition, the Company also reviews the recoverable amount of the receivables progressively at the end of the reporting period to ensure that the receivables that cannot be recovered have been recognized in impairment losses. For this, the management of the Company believes that the credit risk of the Company has been significantly reduced.

The Company recognizes the loss allowance for accounts receivables based on expected credit losses during the lifetime. The expected credit loss during the lifetime is calculated using the preparation matrix, which takes into account the customer's past default record, current financial status, and industrial economic situation. Due to the historical experience of credit loss of the Company, there is no significant difference in the loss patterns of different customer groups. Therefore, the preparation matrix does not further segregate the customer base but set the expected credit loss rate based on the overdue days of accounts receivable.

If there is evidence that the counterparty is facing serious financial difficulties and the company cannot reasonably expect the recoverable amount, the company directly writes off the relevant accounts receivable. However, the recourse will continue to be pursued and the amount recovered will be recognized in profit or loss.

The Company's loss allowance for the notes and accounts receivable is based on the preparation matrix as follows:

XIX. Retirement Benefit Plans

(I) Defined Contribution Plans

The Company adopted a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (LPA), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, an entity makes monthly contributions to employees' individual pension accounts at $6\%$ of monthly salaries and wages.

(II) Defined Benefit Plans

The defined benefit plan adopted by the Company in accordance with the Labor Standards Act is operated by the government of the ROC. Pension benefits are


calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the 6 months before retirement. The Company contributes monthly to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee's name. Before the end of each year, the Company assesses the balance in the pension fund. If the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Company is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor ("the Bureau"); the Company has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.

The amounts included in the balance sheets in respect of the Company's defined benefit plans were as follows:

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Present value of defined benefit obligation $ 12,676 $ 12,890
Fair value of plan assets ( 10,823 ) ( 9,721 )

Marketing expenses $ 184 $ 118
Management expenses 184 118
R&D expenses 184 116
$ 552 $ 352

Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Act, the Company is exposed to the following risks:

  1. Investment risk: The plan assets are invested in domestic and foreign equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau of Labor Funds or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets should not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
  2. Interest risk: A decrease in the government/corporate bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan's debt investment.
  3. Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The significant assumptions used for the purpose of the actuarial valuations were as follows:

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Discount rate(s) 1.375% 1.625%
Expected rate(s) of salary increase 4.00% 4.00%

If possible reasonable change in each of the significant actuarial assumptions will occur and all other assumptions will remain constant, the present value of the defined benefit obligation would increase (decrease) as follows:

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Discount rate(s)
0.25% increase ($ 330) ($ 360)
0.25% decrease $ 343 $ 375
Expected rate(s) of salary increase
0.25% increase $ 329 $ 360
0.25% decrease ($ 318) ($ 348)

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
The expected contributions to the plan for the next year $ 1,080 $ 1,080
The average duration of the defined benefit obligation 15.5 years 19.2 years

According to the requirement under Section 157 Short swing Trading of the Securities and Exchange Act, the capital surplus arising from the gain of claim for disagreements is only used to offset a deficit.

(III) Retained Earnings and Dividend Policy

According to the Company's dividend policy, stipulating that the Company's surplus allocation or loss compensation shall be made after the end of each half fiscal year. If the surplus is distributed in cash, the Board of Directors shall make a resolution, and the board of shareholders shall make a resolution when issuing new shares.

If the Company made profit in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for paying taxes, offsetting losses of previous years and setting aside as legal reserve 10% of the remaining profit. However, if the legal reserve has reached the Company’s paid-in capital, no further appropriation is required. The remaining earnings shall then be setting aside or reversing a special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings shall be used by the Company’s board of directors as the basis for proposing a distribution plan, which should be resolved in the shareholder’s meeting for distribution of dividends and bonus to shareholders. If the dividends, legal reserves and capital reserves referred to in the preceding paragraph are distributed in cash, the Board of Directors may be authorized to attend by more than two thirds of the directors and adopt a resolution by more than half of the directors present and report to the shareholders' meeting.

For the policies on distribution of employees’ compensation and remuneration of directors, refer to “Employee’s compensation and remuneration of directors” in Note

Appropriation of earnings to legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Company's paid-in capital. The legal reserve may be used to offset deficit. If the Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Company's paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.

Remunerations to employees of the Company are determined and adjusted based on their relevant professional experience and performance and after general pay levels in the industry are taken into account. In addition to salaries provided every month as part of remunerations to employees, bonuses and compensations are also given to employees based on the status of corporate operation and profitability. The amount


of the bonus and compensation given to each employee depends on the duties, contribution and performance of the employee.

Instead of receiving fixed remunerations, other directors receive the remunerations distributed to them based on their duties and levels of their participation in corporate business. Remunerations to directors shall be reviewed by the remuneration committee and then resolved by the board of directors.

(VIII) Employee's compensation and remuneration to directors

The Company accrued employees' compensation and remuneration of directors at the rates no less than 1% and no higher than 5%, respectively, of net profit before income tax, employees' compensation, and remuneration of directors. In accordance with the amendments to the Securities and Exchange Act in August 2024, the shareholders of the Company resolved the amendments to the Company's Articles at their 2025 regular meeting. The amendments explicitly stipulate that no less than 50% of the total compensation of employees shall be allocated as compensation distributions for non-executive employees.

XXV. Capital risk management

Based on the current industrial operations, future company development, and external environmental changes, the Company plans its future capital, R&D expenses, and dividends payment, etc. so that the companies within the group can continue as a going concern while their shareholder value can be further improved by optimizing the balance of debt and equity to maintain an optimal capital structure.


The key management of the Company has re-examined the capital structure of the Group from one time to another. The content of the review includes consideration of the cost of various types of capital and related risks. Based on the recommendations of the key management, the Company will balance its overall capital structure by paying dividends, issuing new shares, buying back shares, issuing new debts, or repaying old debts.

XXVI. Financial Instrument

2. Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 2 fair value measurement

Financial Instrument Valuation Technique and Inputs
Derivatives - foreign exchange forward contracts Discounted cash flow: future cash flows are estimated based on observable forward exchange rates at the end of the year and contract forward rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of various counterparties.

  1. Pricing models and input values for the third level of fair value measurement

The fair values of unlisted equity securities were determined using the market approach.

The market approach estimates the fair value of the investment by referencing transaction prices and relevant information of comparable market participants.

(IV) Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company's major financial instruments included accounts receivable, accounts payable, borrowings and lease liabilities. The Company's financial risk management objectives include market risk (including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk, and liquidity risk related to management and operational activities.

  1. Market risk

The Company's activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (1) below), interest rates (see (2) below) and other price risk (see (3) below).

The Company's exposure to the risk of financial instrument market and the


management and measurement of these exposures have not changed.

(1) Foreign currency risk

The Company had foreign currency sales and purchases, which exposed the Company to foreign currency risk.

For the carrying amount of monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in the non-functional currency at the end of the reporting period, see Note 30.

Sensitivity analysis

The Company was mainly exposed to USD, RMB and EUR.

The following table details the Company's sensitivity to a 1% increase and decrease in New Taiwan Dollars (the functional currency) against the relevant foreign currencies. The sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and representing management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates is 1%. The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items at the end of the reporting period. A positive number below indicates an increase in pre-tax profit (loss) when New Taiwan Dollars weakened by 1% against the relevant currency. For a 1% strengthening of New Taiwan Dollars against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on pre-tax profit (loss) and balances below would be negative.

USD Impact RMB Impact EUR Impact
For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 For the Year Ended December 31, 2024 For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 For the Year Ended December 31, 2024 For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 For the Year Ended December 31, 2024
Profit or loss $ 1,768 $ 1,619 ($ 187) ($ 143) $ 779 $ 1,018

The impact of foreign currency on profit and loss as stated in the above table was mainly attributable to the non-derivative financial assets and liabilities denominated in USD, RMB and EUR that were outstanding but with no cash flow hedge at the end of the reporting period.

(2) Interest rate risk

The Company regularly evaluated hedging activities to align with interest rate perspectives and existing risk preferences to ensure that the most cost-effective hedging strategies were adopted.


The carrying amounts of the Company's financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows:

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Fair value interest rate risk
— Financial assets $ 8,000 $ 3,000
— Financial liabilities 884,901 709,872
Cash flow with interest rate risk
— Financial assets 269,335 230,714
— Financial liabilities 1,030,601 1,341,176

Sensitivity Analysis

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk of non-derivatives at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is based on the assumption that the amount of liabilities outstanding at the end of the reporting period are outstanding during the reporting period. The rate of change used by the Company to report interest rate to the key management is the interest rate increased or decreased by 100 basis points. This also represents the management's assessment of the reasonably possible range of interest rates.

If the interest rate increases/decreases by 100 basis points, the Company's net profit before tax for 2025 will decrease/increase by NT$7,613 thousand, and the Company's net loss before tax for 2024 will increase/decrease by NT$11,105 thousand if all other variables remain unchanged. The main reason is the Company's net position in variable-rate bank deposits and borrowings, which results in exposure to fair value interest rate risk.

(3) Other price risk

The company was exposed to equity price risk through its investments in equity securities. The Company has appointed a special staff to monitor the price risk and evaluate the possible solutions.

Sensitivity Analysis

The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the exposure to equity price risks at the end of the year.

If equity prices had been 1% higher/lower, the pre-tax other comprehensive income for 2025 and 2024 would have increased/decreased by $1,346 thousand and $974 thousand, respectively, as a result of the changes in fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI.

2. Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. As at the end of the


reporting period, the Company's maximum exposure to credit risk approximates the carrying amount of the financial assets recognized in the balance sheets.

In order to mitigate credit risk, the management of the Company assigns a dedicated team responsible for credit line decisions, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that appropriate actions are taken for the recovery of overdue receivables. In addition, the Company will review the recoverable amount of the receivables one by one at the end of the reporting period to ensure that the receivables that cannot be recovered have been recognized as impairment losses. For this, the management of the Company believes that the credit risk of the Company has been significantly reduced.

Trade receivables consisted of a large number of customers, spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of customers in view of trade receivables.

Since the counterparty of liquidity and derivative financial instruments are financial institutions and corporate organizations with good credit ratings, the credit risk is quite limited.

3. Liquidity risk

The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Company's operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.

The Company relies on bank borrowings as a significant source of liquidity. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had available unutilized bank loan facilities set out in (3) financing facilities below.

(1) Liquidity and interest risk for non-derivative financial liabilities

The analysis of the remaining contractual maturity of non-derivative financial liabilities is prepared based on the un-discounted cash flows of financial liabilities (including principal and estimated interest) and the earliest date on which the Company may be required to repay. Therefore, the bank borrowings that the Company can be required to repay immediately should be included in the earliest period of the following table, with disregard to the probability that the bank will immediately execute the right; The analysis of the maturity of other non-derivative financial liabilities is prepared in accordance with the agreed repayment date.
