Independent Auditors' Report
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Dawushan Farm Technology Co., Ltd.
Audit opinion
We have audited the parent company only balance sheets of Dawushan Farm Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and the notes to parent company only financial statements (including a summary on significant accounting policies).
In our opinion, the aforementioned parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the parent company only financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and its parent company only financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
Basis for audit opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China (the "Norm"), and we have fulfilled our other responsibilities in accordance with the Norm. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Emphasis of matter - Fire loss
As disclosed in Note 10 to the parent company only financial statements, a portion of the Company's production facilities was damaged by fire on March 12, 2025. As a result, the Company recognized a disaster loss of NT$36,470 thousand for the damage to its plant and equipment. The Company is currently in the process of filing an insurance claim, and no insurance compensation has been recognized as of the reporting date. Our audit conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Emphasis of matter - Organizational restructuring
As disclosed in Note 6(25) to the parent company only financial statements, on April 1, 2025, the Company acquired 51% equity interest in Fu Che Frozen Food Co., Ltd. from its parent company, Kuo Hsing Poultry & Livestock Feeds Co., Ltd. This transaction was an organizational restructuring under common control. The parent company only financial statements for the comparative periods have been presented as if the investment had been held from the beginning of those periods. In preparing the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company restated the comparative parent company only financial statements on a retrospective basis. Our audit conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are ones that were of most significance in our audit of the parent company only financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 based on our professional judgment. These matters have been covered during the audit of the overall parent company only financial statements and in forming the audit opinion. We will not express a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters of the parent company only financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 are stated as follows:
Existence and occurrence of revenue recognition for fresh egg products
Description of the matter
For the accounting policies related to revenue recognition, please refer to Note 4(23) to the parent company only financial statements. For the accounting items of operating revenue, please refer to Note 6(16).
Operating revenue is one of the primary indicators used to assess management’s performance and is also a matter of significant interest to users of the financial statements. As revenue from the sale of fresh egg products represents the largest proportion of the Company’s total operating revenue, we identified the existence and occurrence of revenue recognition for fresh egg products as one of the key audit matters in the current year’s audit.
Audit procedures performed
The primary audit procedures we performed in response to the above key audit matter include:
- To understand, evaluate, and test the effectiveness of the design and implementation of internal controls over the recognition of sales revenue.
- To obtain detailed listings of sales transactions and perform substantive testing by examining supporting documents, including customer orders, shipping documents, and sales invoices.
- To perform external confirmations of accounts receivable.
- To review significant sales returns and allowances occurring subsequent to year-end and examine the related supporting documentation.
Business combination under common control (organizational restructuring)
Description of the matter
For the accounting policies related to business combinations under common control (organizational restructuring), please refer to Note 4(25) to the parent company only financial statements. For the accounting items related to business combinations, please refer to Note 6(25).
On April 1, 2025, the Company acquired 51% equity interest in Fu Che Frozen Food Co., Ltd. from its parent company, Kuo Hsing Poultry & Livestock Feeds Co., Ltd. This transaction was an organizational restructuring under common control. As this represented a significant transaction during the reporting period, we identified the organizational restructuring as one of the key audit matters in the current year’s audit.
Audit procedures performed
The primary audit procedures we performed in response to the above key audit matter include:
- To interview management in order to understand the purpose of the organizational restructuring and the basis for determining the consideration.
- To review the minutes of Board meetings and the share transfer agreement, and inspect supporting documentation for the payment of the consideration.
- To assess the competence and objectivity of the independent experts engaged by management and review the fairness opinion issued by those experts.

Other matter - scope of audit
The parent company only financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2024 prior to restatement were audited by other auditors, who issued an unqualified opinion on February 18, 2025. As disclosed in Note 6(25) to the parent company only financial statements, the Company restated its parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 as a result of an organizational restructuring. We performed the necessary audit procedures on the 2024 financial statements of Fu Che Frozen Food Co., Ltd. and on the adjustment entries made in connection with the restatement of the parent company only financial statements. In our opinion, the aforementioned financial statements of Fu Che Frozen Food Co., Ltd. for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the related adjustment entries are fairly stated and have been appropriately accounted for.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the parent company only financial statements
The responsibilities of management are to prepare the parent company only financial statements with fair presentation in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and maintain necessary internal controls associated with the preparation in order to ensure the financial statements are free from material misstatement arising from fraud or error.
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is also responsible for assessing the ability of the Company in continuing as a going concern, disclosing associated matters and adopting the going concern basis of accounting unless the management intends to liquidate the Company or cease its operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance of the Company (including the Audit Committee) are responsible for supervising the financial reporting process.
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the parent company only financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement arising from fraud or error, and to issue an independent auditors' report. 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. If those amounts of misstatements, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of financial statements users, they are considered material.
We have exercised professional judgment and professional skepticism when carrying out auditing work according to the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. We also perform the following tasks:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement arising from fraud or error within the parent company only financial statements; design and execute appropriate counter-measures in response to those risks, and obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for our opinion. Fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Therefore, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error.
- Understand internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design appropriate audit procedures under the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies adopted and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and relevant disclosures made by management.
-
Based on the audit evidence obtained, we conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and whether a material uncertainty exists for events or conditions that may cast significant doubts on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we are of the opinion that a material uncertainty exists, we shall remind users of the parent company only financial statements to pay attention to relevant disclosures in the notes to those statements within our audit report. If such disclosures are inadequate, we need 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 result in the Company ceasing to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements (including relevant notes), and whether the parent company only financial statements adequately represent the underlying transactions and events.
-
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence concerning the financial information of entities within the Company to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the audit and the preparation of an audit opinion on the parent company only financial statements.
Matters communicated between us and the governance bodies include the planned scope and timing of the audit, and significant audit findings (including any significant deficiencies in internal control identified during the audit).
We also provide governance bodies with a declaration that we have complied with the Norm regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may possibly be deemed to impair our independence (including relevant preventive measures).
From the matters communicated with governance bodies, we determine the key audit matters within the audit of the Company's parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. We have clearly indicated such matters in the independent auditors' report, unless legal regulations prohibit the public disclosure of specific items, or in extremely rare cases, where we decided not to communicate over specific items in the independent auditors' report for it could be reasonably anticipated that the negative effects of such disclosure would be greater than the public interest it brings forth.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors' report are A-Shen Liao and Chien-Chih Wu.

- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Major accounting policies adopted for the preparation of the parent company only financial statements are summarized below. Unless otherwise stated, these policies are applied consistently throughout all reporting periods.
(1) Statement of compliance
The parent company only financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 have been prepared in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
(2) Basis of preparation
A. Except for agricultural produce which is measured at fair value less estimated costs to sell, the parent company only financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis.
B. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the IFRS, IAS, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations (collectively, the "IFRSs") endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC requires the use of significant accounting estimates and the application of the Company's accounting policies also involves management's judgment. Please refer to Note 5 for details on items associated with a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or significant assumptions and estimates in the parent company only financial statements.
(3) Foreign currency translation
The financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (i.e., the functional currency). The parent company only financial statements are presented in the Company's functional currency, New Taiwan dollars (NT$).
Foreign currency transactions and balances
A. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rate at the transaction date or measurement date. Exchange differences arising from such transactions are recognized in profit or loss for the period.
B. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured using the spot exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from the remeasurement are recognized in profit or loss for the period.
C. Foreign currency non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value through profit or loss are remeasured using the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date, and the resulting exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss for the period. For those measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the exchange differences arising from remeasurement using the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date are recognized in other comprehensive income. Non-monetary items not measured at fair value are translated using the historical exchange rate at the date of the initial transaction.
D. All exchange gains and losses are presented under "other gains and losses" in the statement of profit or loss.

(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Otherwise Specified)
(4) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
A. An asset is classified as current under one of the following criteria:
(a) It is expected to be realized, or intended to be sold or consumed, in the normal operating cycle;
(b) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
(c) It is expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or
(d) The asset is classified as cash or a cash equivalent, unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Assets that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.
B. A liability is classified as current under one of the following criteria:
(a) It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;
(b) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
(c) It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
(d) The Company does not have the right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.
(5) Accounts and notes receivable
A. Refers to notes and accounts receivable that represents an unconditional right to receive consideration in exchange for the transfer of goods or services in accordance with contractual terms.
B. For short-term, non-interest-bearing notes and accounts receivable, as the effect of discounting is immaterial, the Company measures them at the original invoice amount.
(6) Impairment of financial assets
At each balance sheet date, the Company assesses its financial assets measured at amortized cost for impairment by considering all reasonable and supportable information, including forward-looking data. For financial assets for which credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to the 12-month expected credit losses. For those with a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses. For accounts receivable or contract assets that do not contain a significant financing component, the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses.
(7) Derecognition of financial assets
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the asset expire.
(8) Lessor's lease transactions - Operating leases
Lease income from operating leases, net of any incentives granted to the lessee, is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Otherwise Specified)
(9) Inventories
A. Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress includes raw materials, direct labor, other direct costs, and production-related manufacturing overhead (allocated based on normal production capacity) and does not include borrowing costs. The comparison between cost and net realizable value is performed on an item-by-item basis. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
B. Inventories of agricultural produce are measured at fair value less costs to sell.
(10) Investments accounted for using the equity method - subsidiaries
A. A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Company. The Company controls an entity when it has exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement in an entity and has the ability to use its power over an entity to affect such returns.
B. Unrealized gains or losses arising from transactions between the Company and the subsidiary have been eliminated in preparing the financial statements. The accounting policies of the subsidiary have been adjusted, where necessary, to conform with the policies adopted by the Company.
C. After the acquisition, the Company recognizes its share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the subsidiary in profit or loss and other comprehensive income, respectively. If the Company's share of loss of the subsidiary equals or exceeds its interest in the subsidiary, the Company continues to recognize losses by its shareholding percentage.
D. Changes in the Company's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control (transactions with non-controlling interests) are accounted for as equity transactions, i.e., transactions with owners. Any difference between the adjustment to non-controlling interests and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.
E. In accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, the profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the period presented in the parent company only financial statements shall be the same as the amounts attributable to owners of the parent in the consolidated financial statements. The equity presented in the parent company only financial statements shall be the same as the equity attributable to owners of the parent in the consolidated financial statements.
(11) Biological assets
Biological assets whose fair value cannot be reliably measured shall be measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
(12) Property, plant and equipment
A. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost with borrowing costs incurred during the construction period capitalized.

DAWUSHAN FARM TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.
NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Otherwise Specified)
B. Subsequent costs are included in the carrying amount of an asset or recognized as a separate asset only if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of replaced parts shall be derecognized. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
C. Subsequent to initial recognition, property, plant and equipment are measured using the cost model. Except for land, which is not depreciated, depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Significant components of property, plant and equipment are depreciated separately.
D. At the end of each financial year, the Company reviews the residual values, useful lives, and depreciation methods of each asset. If there are differences between the expected residual values or useful lives compared to previous estimates, or significant changes in the consumption pattern of future economic benefits of the asset, they shall be accounted for as changes in accounting estimates in accordance with IAS 8 “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors” from the date of changes. The useful lives of various assets are as follows:
| Buildings and structures | 2 to 35 years |
|---|---|
| Machinery and equipment | 2 to 20 years |
| Other equipment | 2 to 22 years |
(13) Lessee’s lease transactions - Right-of-use assets / Lease liabilities
A. At the commencement date, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for the lease. For leases that qualify as short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
B. Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments include fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable.
Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease term. When changes in the lease term or lease payments occur that do not arise from lease modifications, the lease liability is remeasured and the corresponding adjustment is made to the right-of-use asset.
C. Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability.
Subsequently, the assets are measured using the cost model and depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and the useful life of the underlying asset. When the lease liability is remeasured, the right-of-use asset is adjusted by the corresponding amount.
D. For lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease, the lessee decreases the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease and recognizes the difference between the remeasured lease liability and the adjusted right-of-use asset in profit or loss. For all other lease modifications, the remeasured lease liability is recognized as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset.

DAWUSHAN FARM TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.
NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Otherwise Specified)
(14) Intangible assets
A. Licenses, goodwill, and proprietary technologies acquired through business combinations are recognized at fair value on the acquisition date. Proprietary technologies are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life of 10 years. Licenses are considered to have indefinite useful lives as they are expected to generate net cash inflows for the foreseeable future. Therefore, they are not amortized.
B. Computer software is recognized at acquisition cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 5 years.
(15) Impairment of non-financial assets
A. At each balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. An impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. If the circumstances that led to the recognition of an impairment loss in prior years no longer exist or have decreased, the impairment loss is reversed. However, the increased carrying amount of an asset resulting from a reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized.
B. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are subject to periodic estimation of their recoverable amounts. When the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Impairment losses recognized for goodwill are not reversed in subsequent periods.
C. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units (CGUs). Such allocation is determined based on operating segments, with goodwill allocated to the CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the business combination from which the goodwill arose.
(16) Loans
Loans refer to short-term and long-term borrowings from banks. At initial recognition, the Company measures these borrowings at fair value, net of transaction costs. Subsequently, any difference between the proceeds net of transaction costs and the redemption amount is recognized in profit or loss as interest expense over the term of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
(17) Notes and accounts payable
A. Refers to liabilities arising from the purchase of raw materials, goods, or services on credit, as well as notes payable from both operating and non-operating activities.
B. For short-term, non-interest-bearing notes and accounts payable, as the effect of discounting is immaterial, the Company measures them at the original invoice amount.
(18) Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Company derecognizes a financial liability when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, canceled, or expires.

DAWUSHAN FARM TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.
NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Otherwise Specified)
(19) Employee benefits
A. Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid and are recognized as an expense when the related services are rendered.
B. Pension
For defined contribution plans, the amount of the retirement fund to be contributed is recognized as pension cost for the period on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that they represent refundable cash or reduce future payments.
C. Employee compensation and remuneration to directors
Employee compensation and remuneration to directors are recognized as expenses and liabilities when the Company has legal or constructive obligations and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. If the amount accrued differs from the amount resolved to be distributed, the difference would be recognized as changes in accounting estimate.
(20) Income tax
A. Income tax expense includes both current and deferred income taxes. Except for income taxes related to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, which are separately recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, income taxes are recognized in profit or loss.
B. The Company calculates current income tax based on the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Management regularly evaluates the status of income tax filings in accordance with applicable tax regulations and recognizes tax liabilities based on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities, where applicable. The income tax on undistributed earnings, levied in accordance with the Income Tax Act, is recognized in the year following the year in which the earnings are generated, upon the approval of the earnings distribution by the shareholders' meeting, based on the actual distribution of earnings.
C. Deferred income tax is accounted for using the balance sheet method, which recognizes temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts on the parent company only balance sheet. Deferred tax liabilities arising from the initial recognition of goodwill are not recognized. Similarly, deferred income tax is not recognized if it originates from the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit (loss) nor gives rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. Temporary differences from investments in subsidiaries are not recognized if the Company controls the timing of the reversal of these temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax is measured at the tax rates (and tax laws) that are expected to apply when the related assets are realized or the liabilities are settled, based on tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
21
DAWUSHAN FARM TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.
NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Otherwise Specified)
D. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. The Company reassesses both unrecognized and recognized deferred tax assets at each balance sheet date.
(21) Share capital
A. Common shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new shares or share options are deducted from equity, net of any related income tax effects.
B. When the Company repurchases its own issued shares, the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs, net of tax, is recognized as a deduction from equity. When such treasury shares are subsequently reissued, the difference between the consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental costs and income tax effects, and the carrying amount is recognized as an adjustment to equity.
(22) Dividend distribution
Cash dividends for the 2023 earnings were recognized as liabilities in the financial statements upon approval by the shareholders' meeting. In accordance with the Company's Articles of Incorporation, cash dividends for the 2024 earnings are recognized as liabilities upon resolution by the Board of Directors. Stock dividends are recognized as stock dividends to be distributed upon approval by the shareholders' meeting and are reclassified to common shares on the record date for the issuance of new shares.
(23) Revenue recognition
A. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of fresh eggs, processed egg products and related products when control of the product is transferred to the customer, i.e., when the product is delivered to the customer, the customer has discretion over the sales channel and price of the product, and the Company does not have any unsatisfied performance obligations that may affect the customer's acceptance of the product. The product is considered delivered when it is delivered to the designated location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer accepts the product according to the sales contract or there is objective evidence that all acceptance criteria have been met.
B. Revenue from the sale of fresh eggs, processed egg products and related products is recognized at the contract price, net of estimated quantity discounts and sales allowances. Quantity discounts and sales allowances given to customers are usually calculated based on sales volume. The Company estimates volume discounts and sales allowances using the expected value method based on historical experience. Revenue recognition is limited to the portion of revenue where a significant reversal is highly unlikely to occur in the future, and estimates are updated at each balance sheet date. The collection terms for sales transactions are usually one to two months after the shipment date. As the period between the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer and the customer's payment does not exceed one year, the Company does not adjust the transaction price for the time value of money.

DAWUSHAN FARM TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.
NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Otherwise Specified)
C. Accounts receivables are recognized when products are delivered to the customers, as the Company then has an unconditional right to the contract price and can collect the consideration from the customers as time passes.
(24) Government grants
Government grants are recognized at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to the grants and that the grants will be received. Government grants related to expenses are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognizes the related expenses. Government grants related to property, plant and equipment are recognized as non-current liabilities and are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
(25) Business combinations under common control (also referred to as organizational restructuring)
According to the Q&A issued by the Accounting Research and Development Foundation on October 26, 2018, “Accounting Treatment of Business Combinations under Common Control,” as IFRS 3 Business Combinations does not provide explicit guidance for transactions under common control, the relevant interpretations issued in Taiwan shall apply. Under the book value method, the acquiring entity recognizes the assets and liabilities of the transferred entity at the carrying amounts recorded by the parent company. Any difference between the consideration paid and the carrying amount recognized is directly debited from or credited to capital surplus; if the credit balance of capital surplus is insufficient, the shortfall is adjusted against retained earnings.
For the purpose of preparing financial statements for the comparative period, the combination is accounted for as if it had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. When restating comparative financial statements, the portion of equity previously attributable to the parent company is presented as “predecessor interests under common control,” and the share of profit or loss previously attributable to the parent company is presented as “profit (loss) attributable to predecessor interests under common control.”
- Critical Accounting Judgments and Major Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management has exercised judgment in determining the accounting policies to be applied and has made accounting estimates and assumptions based on the circumstances as of the balance sheet date and reasonable expectations of future events. The actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Management continually evaluates these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and other relevant factors, and adjusts them as necessary. Such estimates and assumptions involve a risk of material adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year. Please refer to the following disclosures regarding significant accounting judgments, estimates, and assumption uncertainty.
(1) Significant judgments in applying accounting policies: None.

A. Estimated impairment of notes and accounts receivable
In assessing the impairment of notes and accounts receivable, the Company is required to apply judgment and estimates in measuring the credit risk of notes and accounts receivable in order to evaluate expected credit losses. Credit risk is affected by a number of factors, including the customer's financial condition, historical transaction records and current economic conditions, among other factors that may affect customers' credit quality. This assessment is based on reasonable expectations of expected credit losses as of the balance sheet date. However, actual results may differ from these estimates and may result in material adjustments.
As of December 31, 2025, the carrying amount of the Company's notes and accounts receivable was NT$276,680.
B. Inventory valuation
As inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, the Company is required to exercise judgment and make estimates to determine the net realizable value of inventories as of the balance sheet date. In light of rapid technological changes, the Company assesses the amount of inventories that may be subject to normal spoilage, obsolescence, or lack of marketability as of the balance sheet date and writes down the cost of inventories to their net realizable value accordingly.
As of December 31, 2025, the carrying amount of the Company's inventories was NT$33,247.

C. Biological assets of the Company mainly consist of chicks, pullets, and layer hens. Due to the difficulty in obtaining direct market prices for chicks and pullets during their raising period, the short production cycle of layer hens, and the impact of external factors such as climate and disease on the reliability of discounted cash flow estimates, these biological assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. The cost of biological assets includes all costs incurred during the growth cycle, such as the purchase costs of livestock, poultry and feed, and farm-related expenses. The cost of bearer biological assets is amortized on a straight-line basis over their productive period, which is approximately 12 to 16 months for layer hens. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the depreciation expenses of biological assets amounted to NT$101,516 and NT$92,133, respectively.

E. Financial risk management strategies
The Company's financial risk primarily arises from fluctuations in egg prices. The Company does not anticipate a significant decline in egg prices in the foreseeable future; therefore, no derivative contracts have been executed. The Company regularly reviews its expectations of egg prices to assess the necessity of adopting proactive financial risk management measures.

B. Risk management policies
The Company's daily operations are affected by various financial risks, including market risk (such as exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and price risk), credit risk, and liquidity risk.

Important financial activities of the Company are reviewed by the Board of Directors in accordance with relevant rules and internal control systems. During the execution of financial plans, the Company must adhere strictly to the financial operating procedures related to the overall financial risk management and the division of responsibilities.
C. Nature and extent of significant financial risks
(a) Market risk
Exchange rate risk
i. The Company's management has established policies requiring the Company to manage exchange rate risks relative to its functional currency. The Company is required to hedge its overall foreign exchange exposure through its Finance Department.
ii. As the Company engages in business transactions involving non-functional currencies, it is subject to the effects of exchange rate fluctuations. The information on foreign currency-denominated assets with material exposure to exchange rate volatility was as follows:

Price risk
The Company is not exposed to any commodity price risk.
Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
i. The Company's interest rate risk primarily arises from short-term and long-term loans issued at variable interest rates, which expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's borrowings at variable interest rates were mainly denominated in New Taiwan dollars.
ii. Assuming all other variables remain constant, a 1% increase or decrease in borrowing rates would have resulted in a decrease or increase in profit before
49
DAWUSHAN FARM TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.
NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Otherwise Specified)
tax by NT$8,329 and NT$2,655, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. This change is mainly attributable to fluctuations in interest expenses arising from loans at variable interest rates.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Company arising from a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument failing to meet its contractual obligations. The primary sources of credit risk are trade receivables where counterparties fail to settle amounts in accordance with agreed terms, and contractual cash flows classified as measured at amortized cost. The Company manages this risk internally by assessing the credit quality of customers, taking into account their financial condition, past experience, and other relevant factors.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company's trading policy stipulates that transactions are conducted only with counterparties of good credit standing. In recent periods, there have been no significant defaults on cash and cash equivalents.
Notes and accounts receivable
i. In accordance with the Company's internally defined credit policy, management and credit risk assessments are required for each new customer before setting payment and delivery terms and conditions. Internal risk control evaluates the customer's credit quality by taking into account their financial condition, past experience, and other relevant factors.
ii. The Company considers a financial asset to have experienced a significant increase in credit risk if the contractual payment is more than 30 days past due. A default is deemed to have occurred if the payment is more than 90 days past due.
iii. The Company evaluates the credit quality of customers by customer type, taking into account multiple factors that may affect their ability to pay, including financial condition, historical transaction records, and prevailing economic conditions. A simplified approach is adopted, using a provision matrix to estimate expected credit losses.
iv. After pursuing collection efforts, the Company writes off the portion of financial assets that are no longer reasonably expected to be recoverable. However, the Company will continue to take legal action to preserve its rights.
v. The expected loss rates for notes and accounts receivable from customers as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:
| December 31, 2025 | Not Past Due | 1 to 30 Days | 31 to 90 Days | Over 91 Days | Total |

| Write-offs | - | - | - | ( 10) |
| As of December 31 | $ - | $ 111 | $ - | $ 129 |
(c) Liquidity risk
i. The objective of the Company's liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient cash and bank deposits, highly liquid marketable securities, and adequate bank credit facilities to meet operational needs and ensure financial flexibility.
ii. The Company's Finance Department invests surplus funds in interest-bearing demand deposits and checking deposits, selecting instruments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity to meet the aforementioned forecasts and maintain an adequate liquidity buffer. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company held money market instruments of NT$93,382 and NT$149,019, respectively, which are expected to readily generate cash flows for managing liquidity risk.
iii. Bank loans represent a significant source of liquidity for the Company. The Company's unused short-term and long-term bank borrowing facilities were as follows:

i. Remuneration to directors
The Company determines director remuneration in accordance with its Articles of Incorporation and the Rules for Managing Remuneration of Directors and the Management. The distribution is subject to approval by the Board of Directors. However, independent directors receive a fixed monthly compensation and do not participate in the distribution of director remuneration. If directors concurrently serve as employees (such as President, Vice President, other executives or general staff), their employee compensation is determined based on the Company's relevant policies and regulations.
ii. Remuneration of the President and Vice President
The compensation and ranks of the President and Vice President are determined based on their education, professional experience, language proficiency, and years of service. Additional considerations include prevailing social economic income levels and internal salary equity. Remuneration is determined in accordance with the Company's remuneration policies and standards, subject to the Chairman's approval, review by the Compensation Committee, and final approval by the Board of Directors.
iii. Fixed and variable compensation of employees
Employee compensation, both fixed and variable, includes base salary, year-end bonuses, performance bonuses, employee remuneration, and various benefits. Salaries are determined based on employees' education, experience, years of service, and annual performance evaluations. The Company regularly establishes annual performance targets and conducts assessments of goal attainment, which serve as the basis for year-end bonuses, promotions, salary adjustments, and performance improvement measures.
