I. Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholders,
Overview
2018 was a successful year of Eclat. The Company achieved record high in both revenue and net income. In 2018, the global economic cycle experienced twist from high to low. In the first half of the year, the global economy was under stable growth.

Accordingly, all main national brands and retailers of performance sportswear in North America demonstrated strong purchasing capabilities and the business of the Company also showed synchronous growth in both value and quantity. Nevertheless, starting from the second half of 2018, due to the increasing trade conflict between China and US, the tariff barrier was increased. In addition, as US increased the interest rates quarter after quarter along with the policy of tightening of balance sheet, the economy growth was slowed down gradually. According to various research reports, it is expected that for the future performance and athleisure active wear the compound annual growth rate will still demonstrate higher growth rate than the other categories of apparel. In addition, national brand giants are also engaged in the new product developments and the planning of long-term growth projects. Eclat will continue to strengthen the research and innovation in order to head toward the development of high-value, niche products, thereby establishing the Company’s advantages in international competitiveness.

Buesiness Developments
To cope with customers’ future business growth and plan of concentrating supply chain, the Company will continue to expand the production capacity and to invest in equipments. In addition, for existing production bases, through optimizing sourcing and inventory management, idle space and machines will be utilized to establish new production lines. As the global trade risk increases, the Company will continue to seek appropriate global locations for the establishment of new production bases in the future. The Company will continue to implement experiments with new research and development on manufacturing processes, introduce new technologies, develop and integrate internal systems, cultivate and train professional technical employees, in order to increase efficiency, shorten lead time and achieve quick response to market demands. With regard to the consumers’ definition of performance activewear, it extends from the wear for sports to leisure lives, and it even fits to the fashion clothing and business official occasions. Consequently, it drives the overall industry to continue to grow. Through research, development and innovation, the Company will continue to extend the depth and breadth of products in order to provide comprehensive products and services to customers, thereby maintaining the competitive advantages and increasing the added value of products.
Outlook
Looking forward 2019, under the impact of the trade war between the world two largest economies of China and US, the global overall economy is full of uncertainty, affecting the demands of consumers on apparels, such that the purchase behaviors of national brands and retailers may also change. In addition, with globalization and the significant growth trend of online shopping behavior, leading brands will continue to maintain their market shares and will demand closer cooperation of the supply chains, and will care the production capacity, manufacturing of orgins, inventory management, corporate social responsibility etc. of their suppliers significantly. The Company will continue to invest in research, development and innovation, focus on product quality, strengthen talent cultivation and management, in order to continuously create the maximum value for customers, employees and shareholders.
We wish all shareholders all the best, good health, and success

5.1.2 Industry Overview:
1. Industry Current Status and Development:
The development of the textile industry (including complete and large production system of man-made fiber, spinning, knitting, dyeing and clothes manufacturing etc.) in Taiwan has a history of more than 60 years.
66
With the drive for technological improvements and market demands, vertical specialization of upstream, midstream and downstream sectors has been established and the supply chain is relatively complete. Regarding the upstream sector, the raw materials are plentiful and the processing techniques are skillful, it includes outstanding basis for the production scale and technologies of man-made fiber production that are extremely competitive internationally. It is also one of the main supply sources of man-made fiber products around the globe. The midstream sector has always achieved remarkable export business performance, and business operators in this sector have been the best cooperating partners of international brands. For the downstream sector, the garment industry has been one of the leading industries to establish operations worldwide under the pressure of labor wages.
Presently, the development of textile industry in Taiwan has gradually developed from the traditional labor-intensive clothes manufacturing factories (such as garment processing, sweaters etc.) into a complete textile production system from upstream, midstream to downstream sectors. In addition, the products manufactured have also expanded from traditional yarns, fabrics, man-made fibers and garments to non-woven fabrics with specific functions, industrial specialized fabrics, building material and furniture fabrics etc. Therefore, it has indeed become an industry with diverse development. Furthermore, the textile industry development in Taiwan has also shifted from OEM manufacturing model into an international cooperative production and sales system with vertical integration and horizontal specialization, which has certainly established solid foundation in the global textile industry with undeniable contribution worldwide.
According to the information from the Taiwan Textile Federation, in 2018, the total value of exported textile garment from our nation as US$ 10.07 billion, an increase of 0.01% from 2017; among which, the value of exported fabric was US$ 6.66 billion, a decline of 2.3% from the previous year. The value of exported yarn was US$ 1.68 billion, an increase of 9.8% from the previous year. In terms of the structure of export the largest product is the fabrics with an export ratio of 66.1%, indicating that the fabric industry is important for the development of the textile industry in terms of the manufacturing, and it is also the most important export product for the textile industry. The next largest export product is yarns, accounting for 16.6% of the export ratio. The third largest exported product is fibers, accounting for 8.0% of the export ratio. In the textile
67
industry, the export ratios for the midstream and upstream fibers, yarns and fabrics account for a total exceeding 90%.

The textile industry in Taiwan is an industry that is highly export-oriented with foreign exchange earnings. Due to the downstream business operators in our nation requiring sufficient labor manpower, they tend to spread to overseas and most operators still rely on the import of high performance and fabrics with high quality from Taiwan. Consequently, it serves as the driving force for the upstream and midstream industries in Taiwan. The textile garment industry in our nation is export-oriented, and from the table below, it can be understood that the average export dependence for textile garment industry (calculated based on the export value over the production value weight) reaches 79%. In addition, the import value of textile garment industry in 2018 was US$ 3.68 billion, and the trade surplus reached US$ 6.39 billion, which was the industry of the 4th largest trade surplus in Taiwan. Over the past decade, the textile industry continues to drive the economic development in Taiwan and is a main industry for generating foreign exchange earnings. The textile industry generates appropriately an average of foreign exchange earnings of US$ 7.7 billion, which has significant benefits to the balance of payments of our nation.

The scope of the textile industry is relatively broad, and the upstream, midstream and downstream of the industry include six main fields of yarn, spinning, knitting, dyeing, garment and retail etc. Presently, in the domestic textile industry, there are several large companies exploiting their corporate competitive advantages making the most appropriate development direction in different fields in order to construct a vertically integrated industry and are active in establishing their own textile territory internationally, such as Formosa Nan Ya Group, Far Eastern Group, Shin Kong Group, Tainan Spinning Group and Eclat Group.
- Product development direction:
According to the survey conducted by the market research
71
institution Technavio, the global demand for activewear including fitness and sports continues to grow, and the sales of sportswear in North America accounts for over 37% worldwide. It is expected that it will increase rapidly at an compound annual growth rate above 4.34% before the year of 2020, reaching a market scale of USD 196.6 billion.
With the increasing popularity in the sporty and healthy trend, in addition to standard sportswear, comfortable and fitted sportswear has become the main stream of daily wears. A lot of fashion brands and channel brands have started to launch relevant series of products, indicating the growth of sportswear is more prominent than the performance of the overall clothing.
Based on the consideration of the fast growth in the sports wear market and consumers have higher standard on functional products, domestic and foreign manufacturers are actively engaging in innovative research and development in relevant production technologies, such as: use of microporous membranes in the knitting and dyeing process methods, high-density fabrics, other special auxiliary treatment; use of special cutting, attachment ...etc. technologies for garment, in order to achieve the functional effects of low resistance, abrasion resistance, high strength, light and thin, insulation, UV protection, absorbing and fast drying, breathable and waterproof, anti-bacterial and deodorization etc. In recent years, the textile industry in Germany has also successfully developed biomedical technology and electronic technology textiles with the use of polymer and fiber materials in order to integrate the concepts of telecommunication, information processing, medical and sensor etc. into textiles, such that textiles are able to be equipped with the functions of being capable of responding to toxic substances or gases, temperature, heart rate, pulse, pressure, movement, breath, self-cleaning, temperature regulation, protection and healthcare etc.; consequently, consumer demands on health, sports and recreation can be satisfied.
The textile industry in Taiwan is known as the “Trillion Dollar Industry”, and under the influence of the global regional trading agreements signed, the global development of the Taiwanese supply chain is accelerating. Despite that there is a declining trend in the domestic production value, the percentages of order received and global production in Taiwan increases year after year. With the labor advantages in terms of quantity and lower wage, China and various Southeast countries are gradually causing greater pressure to be put on Taiwanese manufacturers in the international market of general sportswear, garment and decorative, and they also threaten the
72
development of Taiwanese manufacturers in the professional OEM market. Accordingly, the company is of the opinion that enterprises having their own research and development abilities in order to continuously achieve innovations in products and manufacturing processes while being equipped with the differentiation ability to move from OEM to high value-added ODM business, is the key competitive ability for the continuous development of the industry. This is the main direction for the future operation strategic development of enterprises, and is also essential for the sustainable operation of the textile industry in Taiwan.

Market future supply and demand status and growth:
-
(1). Market future supply and demand outlook – textile and dyeing industry:
For spun, with the fast emerging origins of natural fiber raw materials of China, Pakistan and Indonesia etc., and due to the excessive factory expansion by the domestic manufacturers, production capacity is in excess. This has led to price competition and significant reduction in profit for domestic natural fiber yarns and textiles manufacturers, such that a great number of manufacturers move out of the country. Regarding Synthetic fiber, in terms of the woven fabrics, with the significant increase in the demand for functional textiles, and since such type of functional textiles are mostly made from the modification and processing from man-made fibers, the future market for functional textiles is
84
expected to continue to grow. Post-processing fabric are closely related to the market information trend.
Regarding the knitted fabrics, in recent years, due to the short product life cycle of knitted fabrics, low entrance barrier and the trend of low product price in the international market, traders and distributors tend to seek sources in the regions of China and Southeast Asia. Under the influence of technical guidance over the past years, the manufacturers in the regions of China and Southeast Asia are now able to produce products of competent level to the products made by Taiwanese Manufacturers. Despite of the fact that the quality of products from China and Southeast Asia are still unstable, their prices are nevertheless far more attractive then Taiwanese products, such that the domestic export quantity of knitted fabrics is decreasing year after year.
Countermeasure and Required Criteria:
The countermeasures that can be adopted by the knitted fabrics and dyeing industry include reinforcement of the differentiation, technology alliance, local market rooting, branding management and global market expansion. The required criteria include product planning and innovative research and development abilities; investment in research and development budget; increase of successful rate in new products; maintaining excellent cooperation relationship with vendors; market keenness and ambition of leaders; excellent financial ability; equipped with market development type of sales talents; outstanding management team; and the ability to completely satisfy the demands of branded customers and purchasers in terms of the criteria of quality, price, research and development, service, lead time, human rights, environmental protection etc.
(2) Market future supply and demand outlook -- garment industry: Garment industry is characterized by its labor-intensive industry, and the factory establishment cost and capital technology level are relatively low. In recent years, due to the continuous increase of the wage in Taiwan, the basic employee labor supply is clearly insufficient such that garment manufacturing operation environment is difficult. In addition to the cheap labor cost advantages in China and new emerging countries, manufacturers in the industry continue to move out of Taiwan.
Countermeasure and Required Criteria:
85
The strategy combinations recommended to be adopted by the garment industry include the three strategies of global market expansion, branding management and local market rooting etc. The required criteria include sound financial standing, outstanding management talents, market keenness and ambition of leaders, equipped with product planning and R&D talents, and the ability to satisfy the basic demands of branded customers in terms of the criteria of quality, price, research and development, service, lead time, human rights, environmental protection etc. completely.
Future growth:
The main products of the company include elastic knitted fabrics and professional/functional clothes. The main raw materials of such fabrics and clothes are natural fiber yarns, man-made fiber yarns and elastic fiber yarns. Since the petrochemical industry in Taiwan is mature, there is no concern on the semi-finished petroleum raw materials. With the complete industry structure, the production capacity for fibers and processed yarns is ranked high worldwide. As a result, the raw materials can be obtained relatively easily, the source of supply is abundant and the quality is also stable. Regarding elastic fibers, Eclat mainly uses the elastic fibers of “Lycra” produced by Invista, and such elastic fiber is at the leading position in the industry. In terms of the market demand, all developed and emerging countries worldwide are gradually focusing on recreation lifestyles, and the outdoor activity time generally increases. This is particularly so in developed countries in Europe and America, which place great emphasis on health and recreational lifestyles. So much so that the demand for recreation, functional and healthy wear is being driven to increase, and the scale of relevant market is expanding significantly. Knitted fabric of the characteristics of small-volume with large-variety have earned great recognition from professional designers such that knitted fabric is used as the material for high-end fashion wear and is of great potential in fashion trend development. The future outlook of the elastic fabric of the company demonstrates great market potential.
- Competitive niche and favorable, unfavorable factors in future development outlook and countermeasures: Competitive niche:
The main products of the company include circular elastic
86
knitted fabric and garment manufacturing thereof, which utilizes elastic yarn and conventional synthetic fiber and spun mixed knitting as well as special post-processing fabric treatment technology. The company is active in the research and development of trendy, sporty, recreational, eco-friendly, health and multi-functional fabric in conjunction of trendy style designs. This allows the company’s fabrics to be widely applied to diverse product series of sportswear, recreation wear, underwear and pajamas, yoga wear etc., for sales to all well-known brands, department stores and major retailers worldwide.
Main competitive advantages:
-
1) Provide excellent brand reputation to customers, establish reliable partnership.
-
2) Own factory with complete vertical integration (from knitting→dyeing→setting→garment) as a key in earning customer trust.
-
3) Production reaches the economies of scale, equipped with greater price bargain power in raw material purchase, along with the utilization of mature Synthetic fiber industry in Taiwan in order to obtain quality raw materials at low price.
-
4) Technology integration with upstream vendors in order to reduce production errors, improve quality and increase product competitiveness.
-
5) Product innovation ability and high added value, excellent and stable production quality, equipped with relatively greater competitiveness; strong ability in global logistics management, capable of achieving short fast delivery. Local offices established in New York, Los Angeles and Hong Kong, capable of satisfying the all-round service demands of customers from raw materials to finished products.
-
6) The operation management level of the company is committed to the sustainable operation.
Favorable factors to business development:
A.Stable raw material source:
- (a) Synthetic fiber: In recent years, with the rapid development of the petrochemical industry in Taiwan, the production capacity of the downstream man-made fibers, processed yarns are driven to expand, and the production capacity of polyester fibers is
87
also ranked top 4th worldwide. For knitted fabric, synthetic fiber can be obtained easily and the supply source is stable while the price of raw material is also lower than other competitors in, such as Japan and the US.
-
(b) Spun: Under the impact of global climate change, the annual production quantity and price of natural fibers also fluctuate. To ensure the stable raw material supply source, the company engages in long-term cooperation with well-known suppliers, such as: Tai Yuen Textile and Far Eastern New Century, in order to ensure the stable source of yarns such that the Company is able to cooperate with the production progress and to arrange the lead time.
-
(c) Elastic fiber yarns: The elastic fiber yarns used by the company mainly refer to the elastic fiber yarn of “Lycra” manufactured by Invista.

B. Leading technology:
-
(a) Knitting technology: Since elastic knitted fabrics are made from elastic yarns and general non-elastic yarns, to blend the two types of elastic and non-elastic yarns and to allow them to interlace with each other firmly without interferences while maintaining the original characteristics of synthetic fiber and spun, it is clear that requirements for the technology level are high. Since 1989, the company has cooperated with DuPont and accepted the technical guidance of DuPont engineers. Presently, the technology of the company is mature and is at the leading position in the industry.
-
(b) Dyeing technology: Since elastic fibers behave in a way similar to rubber bands, and dyeing on rubber band is known to be difficult. This is mainly due to the reason that during the dyeing process at high temperature, the elastic yarn can be in a molten state or generate ripples. Through continuous research and development as well as testing for different high/low dyeing solution temperatures, curve graphs, the company has been able to achieve most optimal control on such process.
88
C. Strong R&D department:

| Explanations for the variations of financial ratios for the last 2 years.

The increase of the quick ratio was mainly due to that there was no major capital expense in 2018, and the issuance amount of cash dividends was reduced, such that the cash inventory increased. 2. The increase of profitability is mainly due to the market recovery in the current period and the cost has been controlled properly, along with the appreciation of USD and the overall profit status is excellent as well as the significant increase of profit before tax. 3. Cash flow ratio and cash reinvestment ratio are increased due to excellent overall profit status, and the cash flow from operating activities increases. 4. The decrease of Times interest earned, which caused interest increased, is due to the increase of factoring and recognition of the finance leasing interest expense by adoption of IFRS 16 since 2019. |
*If the Company has prepared individual financial report, the Individual Financial Ratio Analysis of the Company shall be further prepared.
Note 1: The fiscal year not yet audited by the independent auditors shall be indicated.
Note 2: Publicly listed company or companies with stocks traded at securities firm business places shall also incorporate the financial information up to the quarter before the printing date of the annual report for that year into analysis.
Note 3: Calculation formulas as follows:
-
Financial structure
-
(1) Debt to asset ratio = Total liabilities / Total assets
-
(2) Long-term capital to property, plant & equipment ratio = (Total equity + non-current liabilities) / net property, plant & equipment.
-
Solvency
-
(1) Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities.
-
(2) Quick ratio = (current assets-inventory-prepaid expenses) / current liabilities.
-
(3) Times interest earned = net profit before interest and tax / interest expenses for the current period.
-
Management capacity
-
(1) Receivables turnover ratio (including account receivables and note receivables from operating activities) = net sales / average receivables balance (including account
111
receivables and note receivables from operating activities).
-
(2) Average collection days = 365 / receivables turnover ratio.
-
(3) Inventory turnover ratio = cost of sales / average inventory.
-
(4) Payables turnover ratio (including account payables and note payables from operating activities) = cost of sales / average payables balance (including account payables and note payables from operating activities).
-
(5) Days sales outstanding = 365 / Inventory turnover ratio.
-
(6) Property, plant and equipment turnover ratio = net sales / average net property, plant and equipment.
-
(7) Total asset turnover = net sales / average total assets.
-
Profitability
-
(1) Return on assets = (net Income + interest expenses * (1 - effective tax rate)) / average total assets.
-
(2) Return on equity = net income / average equity.
-
(3) Net profit margin = net Income / net Sales
-
(4) Earnings per share = (net profit or loss attributed to shareholders of the parent - preference dividend) / weighted average number of shares outstanding (Note 4)
-
Cash flow
-
(1) Cash flow ratio = net cash provided by operating activities / current liabilities
-
(2) Cash flow adequacy ratio = five-year sum of cash from operations / five-year (sum of capital expenditures, inventory additions, and cash dividend)
-
(3) Cash reinvestment ratio = (net cash provided by operating activities - cash dividends)/ (gross property, plant and equipment + long-term investments + other non-current assets + working capital) (Note 5)
-
Leverage:
-
(1) Operating leverage = (net operating revenue - operating variable cost and expense) / operating income (Note 6).
(2) Financial leverage = operating income / (operating income - interest expenses)
-
Note 4: The aforementioned calculation equation for earnings per share, please be aware of the following during the measurement:
-
It is calculated based on the number of weighted average outstanding common shares, rather than based on the number of shares already issued by the end of year.
-
For cash capital increase or treasury shares transactions, the circulation period has been considered in order to calculate the number of weighted average shares.
-
For earning converting into capital increase or capital surplus converting into capital increase, during the calculation of the earning per share for the previous year and semi-annually, retroactive adjustment has been made according to the ratio of the capital increase, but the issuance period of the capital increase is not yet considered.
-
Note 5: During the measurement of the cash flow analysis, please be aware of the following:
-
Net cash flow from operating activities refers to the net cash inflow from operating activities
112
in the statement of cash flows.
-
Capital expense refers to the cash outflow of capital investment in each year.
-
Inventory increase is only counted when the ending balance is greater than the opening balance. If the inventory at the end of year decreases, then it is counted as zero for the calculation.
-
Cash dividends include the cash dividends of common stocks and preference shares.
-
Gross property, plant and equipment refer to the total amount of property, plant and equipment before deduction of accumulated depreciation.
-
Note 6: Issuer shall classify the operating cost and operating expense into fixed and variable. In case where estimation or subjective judgment is involved, issuer shall be aware of its reasonability and shall maintain the consistency of such cost and expense.

According to new standards, understanding for operation and industry characteristics to evaluate appropriateness on accounting policies; testing the design and implementation of internal control over revenue recognition, inspecting the accuracy of revenue recognition, and reconciling between sales systems and general ledger; analyzing the Group's main sources of revenues to evaluate whether there are major anomalies; analyzing the trend of revenue from different products to compare the difference between actual and budget; analyzing the agreements of selected customers to understand the sales terms and conditions for revenue recognition and to further inspect related transaction documents to ensure the revenue is recorded in the appropriate period.
- Assessment of inventories
Please refer to Note 4(h) for details of the accounting policies of inventories and Note 6(c) for relevant disclosures of inventories of the consolidated financial.
How the matter was addressed in our audit
The inventories of the Group are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The industry is subject to seasonal effects resulting in a risk wherein the carrying value of inventories may exceed its net realizable value. Therefore we determined the valuation of inventories is one of the key audit matters in our audit.
Our principal audit procedures included:
Evaluating the rationality of the provision policy for inventory valuation and obsolescence and understanding whether the valuation of inventory was performed in accordance with the Group's policy; inspecting the inventory aging report and analyzing the trends of inventory aging; assessing the provision for inventory valuation and obsolescence including sampling and inspecting the accuracy of the net realizable value of inventories; inspecting the post period sales situation and evaluating the net realizable value of measurement applied on aging inventory in order to verify the evaluation accuracy of the estimated inventory allowance by the Group; and assessing whether the disclosures of provision for inventory valuation and obsolescence were appropriate.
Other Matter
The Group has additionally prepared its parent company only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, on which we have issued an unqualified opinion.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs, IASs, interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements free from material misstatement due to fraud or error.
119
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’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 Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance (including members of the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor ’ s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted 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 consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
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 Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit.
120
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Kuo Hsin Yi and Chen Hsiu Lan.

(Expressed in Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Otherwise Specified)
(1) Company history

- (a) The impact of the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, R.O.C. (“FSC”) which have already been adopted.
The following new standards, interpretations and amendments have been endorsed by the FSC and are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018.
| New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations Amendment to IFRS 2“Clarifications of Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions” Amendments to IFRS 4“Applying IFRS 9 Financial Instruments with IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts” IFRS 9“Financial Instruments” IFRS 15“Revenue from Contracts with Customers” Amendment to IAS 7“Statement of Cash Flows -Disclosure Initiative” Amendment to IAS 12“Income Taxes- Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealized Losses” Amendments to IAS 40“Transfers of Investment Property” Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2014–2016 Cycle: Amendments to IFRS 12 Amendments to IFRS 1 and Amendments to IAS 28 IFRIC 22“Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration” |

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Except for the following items, the Group believes that the adoption of the above IFRSs would not have any material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The extent and impact of signification changes are as follows:
- (i) IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”
IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. It replaces the existing revenue recognition guidance, including IAS 18 “ ” “ ” Revenue and IAS 11 Construction Contracts .
The following are the nature and impacts on changing of accounting policies:
- 1) Sales of goods
For the sale of products, revenue is currently recognized when the goods are delivered to the customers’ premises, which is taken to be the point in time at which the customer accepts the goods and the related risks and rewards of ownership transfer. Revenue is recognized at this point provided that the revenue and costs can be measured reliably, the recovery of the consideration is probable and there is no continuing management involvement with the goods. Under IFRS 15, revenue will be recognized when a customer obtains control of the goods.
- 2) Impacts on financial statements
Based on its preliminary assessment, the Group suggests the point in time at which the customer accepts the goods is similar to when the related risks and rewards of ownership transfer and does not expect that there will be a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.
- (ii) IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”
IFRS 9 replaces IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” which contains classification and measurement of financial instruments, impairment and hedge accounting.
As a result of the adoption of IFRS 9, the Group adopted the consequential amendments to IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements” which requires impairment of financial assets to be presented in a separate line item in the statement of comprehensive income. Previously, the Group’s approach was to include the impairment of trade receivables in administrative expenses. Additionally, the Group adopted the consequential amendments to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures that are applied to disclosures about 2018 but generally have not been applied to comparative information.

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The detail of new significant accounting policies and the nature and effect of the changes to previous accounting policies are set out below:
- 1) Classification of financial assets and financial liabilities
IFRS 9 contains three principal classification categories for financial assets: measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) and fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). The classification of financial assets under IFRS 9 is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics. The standard eliminates the previous IAS 39 categories of held to maturity, loans and receivables and available for sale. Under IFRS 9, derivatives embedded in contracts where the host is a financial asset in the scope of the standard are never bifurcated. Instead, the hybrid financial instrument as a whole is assessed for classification. For an explanation of how the Group classifies and measures financial assets and accounts for related gains and losses under IFRS 9, please see note 4(g).
The adoption of IFRS 9 did not have any a significant impact on its accounting policies on financial liabilities.
- 2) Impairment of financial assets
IFRS 9 replaces the ‘incurred loss’ model in IAS 39 with the ‘expected credit loss’ (ECL) model. The new impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, contract assets and debt investments at FVOCI, but not to investments in equity instruments. Under IFRS 9, credit losses are recognized earlier than they are under – IAS 39 please see note 4(g).
- (b) The impact of IFRS endorsed by FSC but not yet effective
The following new standards, interpretations and amendments have been endorsed by the FSC and are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 in accordance with Ruling No. 1070324857 issued by the FSC on July 17, 2018:
| New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations IFRS 16“Leases” IFRIC 23“Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments” Amendments to IFRS 9“Prepayment features with negative compensation” Amendments to IAS 19“Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement” Amendments to IAS 28“Long-term interests in associates and joint ventures” Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2015–2017 Cycle |

IFRS 16 replaces the existing leases guidance, including IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining – whether an Arrangement contains a Lease, SIC-15 Operating Leases Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease.
IFRS 16 introduces a single and an on-balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees. A lessee recognizes a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. In addition, the nature of expenses related to those leases will now be changed since IFRS 16 replaces the straight-line operating lease expense with a depreciation charge for right-of-use assets and interest expense on lease liabilities. There are recognition exemptions for short-term leases and leases of – low-value items. The lessor accounting remains similar to the current standard i.e. the lessors will continue to classify leases as finance or operating leases.
- 1) Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease
On transition to IFRS 16, the Group can choose to apply either of the following:
-
‧ IFRS 16 definition of a lease to all its contracts; or
-
‧ a practical expedient that does not need any reassessment whether a contract is, or contains, a lease.
The Group plans to apply the practical expedient to grant the definition of a lease upon transition. This means that it will apply IFRS 16 to all contracts entered into before January 1, 2019 and identified as leases in accordance with IAS 17 and IFRIC 4.
- 2) Transition
As a lessee, the Group can apply the standard using either of the following:
-
‧ retrospective approach; or
-
‧ modified retrospective approach with optional practical expedients.
On January 1, 2019, the Group plans to initially apply IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach. Therefore, the cumulative effect of adopting IFRS 16 will be recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2019, with no restatement of comparative information.
(Continued)

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
When applying the modified retrospective approach to leases previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17, the lessee can elect, on a lease-by-lease basis, whether to apply a number of practical expedients on transition. The Group is assessing the potential impact of using these practical expedients.
- ‧ apply a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.
- ‧ exclude the initial direct costs from measuring the right-of-use assets at the date of initial application.
- ‧ use hindsight when determining the lease term if the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.
-
3) So far, the most significant impact identified is that the Group will have to recognize the new assets and liabilities for the operating leases of its offices, warehouses, and factory facilities. The Group estimated that the right-of-use assets and the lease liabilities to increase by $109,120 thousand and $111,181 thousand respectively, as well as the retained earnings to decrease by $2,061 thousand on January 1, 2019. No significant impact is expected for the Group’s finance leases. Besides, The Group does not expect the adoption of IFRS 16 to have any impact on its ability to comply with the revised maximum leverage threshold loan covenant. Also, the Group is not required to make any adjustments for leases where the Group is the intermediate lessor in a sub-lease.

(c) Basis of Consolidation
- (i) Principles of preparation consolidated financial statements
The consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its subsidiaries. An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Transactions balances and any unrealized gains or losses between the Group and its subsidiaries have been eliminated while compiling the consolidated financial statements. The comprehensive income of the subsidiary is attributed to the parent, within equity.
Accounting policies of the subsidiaries have been adjusted to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.

(iii) The subsidiaries are not included in the consolidated financial statements: none.
(d) Foreign currency
(i) Foreign currency transaction
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Group at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between the amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year adjusted for the effective interest and payments during the year, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the year.
Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items in a foreign currency that are measured based on historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of transaction.
(ii) Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to the Group’s functional currency at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations, excluding foreign operations in hyperinflationary economies, are translated to the Group’s functional currency at average rate. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income, and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity.
When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes any part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interest. When the Group disposes only part of investment in an associate of joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.
When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, foreign currency gains and losses arising from such items are considered to form part of a net investment in the foreign operation and are recognized in other comprehensive income, and presented in the translation reserve in equity.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
- (e) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
An entity shall classify an asset as current with one of the following rules; an entity shall classify all other assets as non-current:
-
(i) It expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal operating cycle;
-
(ii) It holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
(iii) It expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting date; or
-
(iv) The asset is cash or cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
An entity shall classify a liability with one of the following rules as current; an entity shall classify all other liabilities as non-current:
-
(i) It expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle;
-
(ii) It holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
(iii) The liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
-
(iv) It does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
-
(f) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprise cash on hand and cash in bank. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Term deposits that meet the above requirements and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes are classified under cash equivalents.
-
(g) Financial instruments
-
(i) Financial assets (applicable from January 1, 2018)
Financial assets are classified into the following categories: measured at amortized cost.
The Group shall reclassify all affected financial assets only when it changes its business model for managing its financial assets.
(Continued)
134
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
- 1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
-
‧ it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
‧ its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A financial asset measured at amortized cost is initially recognized at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest revenue, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment loss are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets shall be recognized, as applicable, using trade-date accounting.
- 2) Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, other receivables, refundable deposit and other financial assets).
The Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit loss (ECL), except for the following which are measured as 12-month ECL:
- ‧ bank balances for which credit risk (i.e. the risk of default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument) has not increased significantly since initial recognition.
Loss allowance for trade receivables are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL.
Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.
12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible within the 12 month after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months).
The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk.
(Continued)
135
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis based on the Group’ s historical experience and informed credit assessment as well as forward-looking information.
The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 60 days past due.
The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when the financial asset is more than 180 days past due.
ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive). ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial assets is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:
-
‧significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;
-
‧a breach of contract such as a default past due; or
-
‧it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;
Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. The Group recognizes the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) in profit or loss, as an impairment gain or loss.
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.
- 3) Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the assets expire, or when the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets.
(Continued)
136
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(ii) Financial assets (applicable before January 1, 2018)
The Group classifies financial assets into the following categories: loans and receivables
1) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables comprised trade receivables and other receivables. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value, plus, any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less, any impairment losses other than insignificant interest on short-term receivables. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets shall be recognized and derecognized, as applicable, using trade-date accounting.
2) Impairment of financial assets
A financial asset is impaired if, and only if, there is an objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events (a loss event) that occurred subsequent to the initial recognition of the asset and that a loss event (or events) has an impact on the future cash flows of the financial assets that can be estimated reliably.
Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired includes default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers or issuers, economic conditions that correlate with defaults or the disappearance of an active market for a security. In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is accounted for as objective evidence of impairment.
All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment. Receivables that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together assets with similar risk characteristics. In assessing collective impairment, the Group uses historical trends of the probability of default, the timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management’s judgment as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or lesser that those suggested by historical trends.
The carrying amount of a financial asset is reduced for an impairment loss, except for trade receivables, in which an impairment loss is reflected in an allowance account against the receivables. When it is determined a receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Any subsequent recovery from written off receivable is charged to the allowance account. Changes in the allowance accounts are recognized in profit or loss.
Recovery and loss on doubtful debts of account receivables are included in the operating expense and non-operating income; others are included in non-operating income and expense.
(Continued)
137
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
- 3) Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognizes financial assets when the contractual rights of the cash inflow from the asset are terminated, or when the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received or receivable and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in other equity account unrealized gains or losses from available for sale financial assets is recognized as profit or loss under non-operating income and expenses.
On partial derecognition of a financial assets, the relative fair value of the partial derecognized financial assets at the transfer date is used to apportion the original book value of the financial assets on a pro-rata basis, to the portion of continual recognition resulted from continual participation and of derecognition. The difference between the carrying amount apportioned to the portion of the derecognized and the sum of the consideration received or receivable from the derecognized and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income apportioned to the derecognized is recognized as profit or loss under non-operating income and expenses. Any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is apportioned to the portion of continual recognition and derecognition on a pro-rata basis of their fair value.
-
(iii) Financial liabilities and equity instruments
-
1) Classification of debt or equity
Debt or equity instruments issued by the Group are classified as financial liabilities or equity instruments in accordance with the substance of the contractual agreement.
Equity instruments are any contractual agreement that can manifest the Group’s residual interest after assets, less, liabilities. Equity instruments issued are recognized based on amount of consideration received, less, the direct cost of issuing.
Interest related to the financial liability is recognized in profit or loss under non-operating income and expenses.
On conversion, the financial liability is reclassified to equity, and no gain or loss is recognized.
- 2) Financial liabilities reported at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities classified under this category are mainly the financial liabilities held-for-trading or financial liabilities reported at fair value through profit or loss.
(Continued)
138
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The purposes of financial liabilities held-for-trading are for repurchasing or selling in short-term. Under the following conditions, financial liabilities will be recognized as financial liabilities reported at fair value through profit or loss.
-
a) Measurement and recognition varies because of the elimination or material reduction of gain or loss with different measurement basis for assets and liabilities.
-
b) Financial liabilities measured at fair value.
-
c) Mixed instruments with embedded derivatives.
At initial recognition, this type of financial liabilities is measured at fair value; transaction costs are recognized as income or loss if occurred, and subsequent measurement is measured at fair value. Remeasurements of gains or losses, including relevant interest expense, are recognized as income or loss, and are reported under non-operating revenue and expenditure.
-
3)
-
Other financial liabilities
At initial recognition, financial liabilities not classified as held-for-trading, or designated as fair value through profit or loss, which consist of loans and borrowings, and trade and other payables are measured at fair value, plus, any directly attributable transaction cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost calculated using the effective interest method. Interest expense not capitalized as capital cost is recognized in profit or loss under non-operating income and expenses.
-
4)
-
Derecognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognized when its contractual obligation has been discharged or cancelled or expired.
The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability removed and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss, and is included in non-operating income and expenses.
-
5)
-
Offsetting of financial liabilities and assets
The Group presents financial assets and liabilities on net basis when the Group has the legally enforceable rights to offset, and intends to settle such financial assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
(Continued)
139
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(h) Inventories
Inventories are necessary expenditures and charges for bringing the inventory to a salable and useable condition and location. In the case of manufactured overhead, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity of labor hours or machine hours and is allocated to finish goods and work-in-progress. Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value subsequently and the cost of inventories is calculated using the monthly weighted-average method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
-
(i) Non current assets held for sale and discontinued operations
-
(i) Non current assets held for sale
Non current assets or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale or distribution rather than through continuing use are reclassified as held for sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets, or components of a disposal group are remeasured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies. Thereafter, the assets or disposal groups are generally measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
Impairment losses on assets initially classified as held for sale or held for distribution to owners and any subsequent gains or losses on re measurement are recognized in profit or loss. Gains are not recognized in excess of any cumulative impairment loss.
When the assets classified as held for sale or held for distribution to owners are intangible assets or property, plant and equipment, they are no longer amortized or depreciated.
(ii) Discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a segment of the Group which it has disposed of or held for sale and is solely a main practice or operation district. An operation will be classified as a discontinued operation upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, whichever comes first.
(j) Investment in associates
Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies.
Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are recognized initially at cost. The cost of the investment includes transaction costs. The carrying amount of the investment in associates includes goodwill that arose from the acquisition less any accumulated impairment losses.
The Group’s separate financial statements include the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of equity accounted investees, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases.
(Continued)
140
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Unrealized profits resulting from the transactions between the Group and an associate are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate. Unrealized losses on transactions with associates are eliminated in the same way, except to the extent that the underlying asset is impaired.
When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in associates, or the carrying amount of the investment, including any long-term interests that form part thereof, is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses should be discontinued except to the extent that the Consolidated Company has an obligation or has made payments on behalf of the investee.
-
(k) Property, plant and equipment
-
(i) Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributed to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of a self-constructed asset comprised the material, labor, any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, and any borrowing cost eligible for capitalization. In addition, the cost also include the amount of the effective cash flow hedge resulted from the foreign currency purchase of property, plant and equipment. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment.
When property, plant and equipment include different components, which are relatively material to the total cost of the item, different depreciation rate or methods may be applied. These components should be viewed as individual items (main parts) in the property, plant or equipment.
The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item, and it shall be recognized as non-operating income and expense.
- (ii) Subsequent cost
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure can be assessed reasonably, and will flow to the Group. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognized. Ongoing repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
- (iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated based on the depreciable amount of an asset using the straight-line basis over its useful life. The depreciation amount of an asset is determined based on the cost, less, its residual value. The depreciation is assessed according to the material components of each item. If the useful life of one component is different from the others, this component should be depreciated individually. The depreciation charge for each period is recognized in profit or loss.
(Continued)
141
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Land has an unlimited useful life, and therefore, is not depreciated. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years of significant items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
-
1) Buildings: 5 to 60 years.
-
2) Machinery and equipment: 2 to 25 years.
-
3) Transportation equipment: 3 to 8 years.
-
4) Office equipment: 5 to 9 years.
-
5) Miscellaneous equipment: 3 to 15 years.
Depreciation methods, useful lives, and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date. If the expectation of useful lives differs from the previous estimate, the change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
-
(l) Intangible assets
-
(i) Goodwill
- 1) Initial recognition:
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is included in intangible assets.
- 2) Subsequent measurement:
Goodwill is measured at cost, less, accumulated impairment losses. Impairment loss on equity investment in investees accounted for under the equity method is not allocated to any asset, including goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of such investment.
- (ii) Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group are measured at cost, less, accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.
- (iii) Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
- (iv) Amortization
The amortizable amount is the cost of an asset or other amount substituted for cost, less, its residual value.
(Continued)
142
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets from the date that they are available for use, other than goodwill . The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
-
1) Software: 2 to 3 years.
-
2) Other intangible assets: 10 years
The residual value, amortization period, and amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life shall be reviewed at least annually at each fiscal year-end. Any change shall be accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.
(m) Impairment of non-financial assets
Non-financial assets except for inventories, deferred tax assets are assessed at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the Group shall estimate the recoverable amount of the asset. If it is not possible to determine the recoverable amount (fair value, less, cost to sell and value in use) for the individual asset, then the Group will have to determine the recoverable amount for the asset's cash-generating unit.
The recoverable amount for individual asset or a (“CGU”) unit is the higher of its fair value, less costs to sell and its value in use.
The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized in prior periods for an asset other than goodwill may no longer exist or may have decreased. An impairment loss recognized in prior periods for an asset other than goodwill shall be reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.
(n) Revenue recognition
- (i) Revenue from contracts with customers (applicable from January 1, 2018)
Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The Group recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or a service to a customer.
The Group manufactures and sells elastic fabrics and clothing. The Group recognizes revenue when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has full discretion over the channel and price to sell the products, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer’s acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Group has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
A receivable is recognized when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the Group has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional.
(ii) Revenue recognition (applicable before January 1, 2018)
Revenue from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence exists, usually in the form of an executed sales agreement that the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer. Recovery of the consideration is probable. The associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing management involved with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. If it is probable that discounts will be granted and the amount can be measured reliably, then the discount is recognized as a reduction of revenue as the sales are recognized.
The timing of the transfers of risks and rewards varies depending on the individual terms of the sales agreement. International shipments transfer usually occurs upon loading the goods onto the relevant carrier at the port. For domestic sales, transfers occur upon issuing of receipt by the customer.
(o) Employee benefits
- (i) Defined contribution plans
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plan are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees.
(ii) Defined benefit plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Group’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit pension plan is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Any fair value of any plan assets are deducted from the aforesaid discounted present value. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on bonds (market yields of ’ government bonds) that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group s obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid.
The calculation of defined benefit obligation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a benefit to the Group, the recognized asset is limited to the present value of economic benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. In order to calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any minimum funding requirements that apply to any plan in the Group. An economic benefit is available to the Group if it is realizable during the life of the plan, or on settlement of the plan liabilities.

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
When the benefits of a plan are improved, the portion of the increased benefit relating to past service by the employees, the expense is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Remeasurement of the net defined benefit liabilities includes:(a) actuarial gains and losses; (b) return on plan assets, not including the amounts of net interest included in net defined benefit liabilities; and (c) any changes of the amounts of affecting of upper limits of assets, not including the amounts of net interests included in net defined benefit liabilities.
Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings.
The Group recognized gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of a defined benefit plan when the curtailment or settlement occurs. The gain or loss on curtailment comprises any resulting change in the fair value of plan assets, change in the present value of defined benefit obligation.
- (iii) Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed when related service are provided.
A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
(p) Income taxes
Income tax expenses include both current taxes and deferred taxes. Except for expenses related to business combination, or those recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive income, all current and deferred taxes shall be recognized in profit or loss.
Current taxes include tax payables and tax receivables on taxable gains (losses) for the year calculated using the statutory tax rate on the reporting date or the actual legislative tax rate, as well as tax adjustments related to tax payable in prior years.
Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases. Deferred taxes shall not be recognized for the below exceptions:
-
(i) Assets and liabilities that are initially recognized but are not related to the business combination and have no effect on net income or taxable gains (losses) during the transaction.
-
(ii) Temporary differences arising from equity investments on subsidiaries or joint ventures where there is a high probability that such temporary differences will not reverse.
-
(iii) Initial recognition of goodwill.
(Continued)
145
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Deferred tax assets and liabilities shall be measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities may be offset against each other if the following criteria are met:
-
(i) The entity has the legal right to settle tax assets and liabilities on a net basis; and
-
(ii) The taxing of deferred tax assets and liabilities fulfill one of the below scenarios:
-
1) Levied by the same taxing authority; or
-
2) Levied by different taxing authorities, but where each such authority intends to settle tax assets and liabilities (where such amounts are significant) on a net basis every year of the period of expected asset realization or debt liquidation, or where the timing of asset realization and debt liquidation is matched.
A deferred tax asset should be recognized for the carry-forward of unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which they can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets shall also be reviewed at each reporting date, and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
(q) Earnings per share
The Group reports the basic earnings per share and the diluted earnings per share. The basic earnings per share are calculated based on the profit attributable to the ordinary shareholder of the Group divided by weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. The diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Group, divided by weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding after adjustment for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(r) Operating segments
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may incur revenues and incur expenses. All operating results of the operating segments are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. Each operating segments has its own finance information.
(5) Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty:
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with the Regulations and the IFRSs endorsed by the FSC requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The management continues to monitor the accounting estimates and assumptions. The management recognizes any changes in accounting estimates during the period and the impact of those changes in accounting estimates in the next period.

The average credit term of sales of goods for the Group is from 30 to 60 days. As of December 31,2017, on deciding the recoverability of accounts receivable and notes receivable, the Group will consider any change in quality of credit of accounts receivable and notes receivable from the original credit date to the reporting date. According to the historical experience, the recoverability of accounts receivable and notes receivable, which overdue more than 180 days, is unrecoverable, the Group has recognized accounts receivable and notes receivable, which overdue more than 180 days, as 100% bad debts. The Group estimated the amount of uncollectible accounts receivable and notes receivable, which from one to 180 days, by referring to the counterparty’s historical default records in payments and the analysis of current financial condition.

- 6) Actuarial assumptions
Major assumptions used to determine the present value of the defined benefit obligations were as follows:
| Discount rate Future salary increases rate |
December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 1.125% 1.375% 3.000% 3.000% |
|---|---|
Expected appropriated amount paid to defined benefit plan by the Group during 1 year after the reporting date of 2018 is $2,697 thousand.
The weighted average duration of the defined benefit plan is 13.39 years.
- 7) Sensitivity analysis:
As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the effects of the present value of the defined benefit obligation arising from changes in principal actuarial assumptions were as follows:
| December 31, 2018 Discount rate (change 0.25%) Future salary increases rate (change 0.25%) December 31, 2017 Discount rate (change 0.25%) Future salary increases rate (change 0.25%) |
Effect of defined benefit obligations Increase 0.25% Decrease 0.25% $ (7,239) 7,527 7,254 (7,006) (7,047) 7,349 7,093 (6,846) |
|---|---|
| Increase 0.25% $ (7,239) 7,254 (7,047) 7,093 |
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. The sensitivity analysis adopts the same methods for determining the defined benefit assets at the balance sheet date.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
According to Company Law, realized capital surplus can be transferred to common stock or distributed as cash dividends after deducting the accumulated deficit, if any. Realized capital surplus includes the additional paid-in capital from issuance of common stock in excess of the common stock’s par value and donation from others. Paid-in capital in excess of par value is transferrable to common stock annually but shall not exceed 10% of total issued and outstanding common stock according to Regulations Governing the Offering and Issuance of Securities by Securities Issuers.
(iii) Retained earnings
According to the Company’s articles of incorporation, 10% of annual net earnings (net of income taxes), after deducting accumulated deficits, must be set aside as legal reserve. The remaining portion is to be distributed upon a proposal by the board of directors and approval in an annual shareholders’ meeting.
The Company is now in the growth stage and has a plan to expand the product line. Due to the need for capital to fulfill the plan, the policy for dividend distribution should reflect factors such as investment planning, financial structure, future fund requirements, and status of earnings. In a normal consideration, the percentage of earnings distribution shall not be less than 50% of the net earnings of the current year after compensating for accumulated deficits, if any. The board of directors shall make the distribution proposal, and it is then approved at the shareholders’ meeting. The ratio for distributing cash dividends shall not be lower than 20% of the total distribution.
1) Legal reserve
In accordance with the Company Act, 10% of net income after tax should be set aside as legal reserve, until the legal reserve is equal to authorized capital. If the Company experienced profit for the year, the distribution of the statutory earnings reserve, either by new shares or by cash, shall be decided at the shareholders meeting, and the distribution amount is limited to the portion of legal reserve which exceeds 25% of the paid-in capital.
2) Special reserve
A regulation issued by the Securities and Futures Bureau requires a special reserve be made from the unappropriated earnings, equivalent to current income or loss and prior period-undistributed earnings from the reduction of other equity; the special reserve appropriated from prior period-undistributed earnings cannot be distributed. If the reductions of other equity reverse, the reverse parts can be distributed. The Group is applicable to the regulations in Interpretation No.1010012865 by FSC for recognizing special reserve.

- 2) Sensitivity analysis
The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, bank borrowings and accounts payable. A 1% depreciation or appreciation of the TWD against the USD as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 would have increased or decreased the net income after tax by $36,556 thousand and $27,915 thousand respectively. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant and ignores any impact of forecasted sales and purchases. The analysis is based on the same basis.

- 3) Foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items
The realized and unrealized exchange (loss) gain amounted to $206,379 thousand and ($506,890) thousand, at the average rates of 30.149 and 30.432 for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
- (iv) Interest rate analysis
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk arising from financial assets and liabilities is described in the liquidity risk part of this note.
The following sensitivity analysis is determined through the exposure to interest rate risk of derivative and non-derivative instruments on the reporting date. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis assumes that the balances of outstanding liabilities on the reporting date have been outstanding for the whole period, and their rational change intervals are being estimated. If the interest rate increases/decreases by 1%, representing the reasonable interest rates changes made by management.
If the interest rate increases/decreases by 1%, the Group's net income will increase/decrease by $2,005 thousand and $2,369 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, with all other variable factors that remain constant.

(ii) Risk management framework
The board of directors is responsible for the supervision of the Company’s risk management framework.
The risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the Group’s exposure to risks, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aim to develop a disciplines and constructive control environment, in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.
The audit committee of the Group oversees how the management complies in monitoring the Group’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The internal audit sector of the Group reviews the risk management controls and procedure on scheduled and non-scheduled basis, and reports the results to the audit committee.
(iii) Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial ’ instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group s receivables from customers.
1) Accounts receivable
Every single client affects the credit risk exposure of the Group, but still, the management should consider the status of its clients, including the industry the client belongs to and the default risk of the country where the client is located. Because the transaction of the Group is not concentrated in one single client for 2018 and 2017, therefore, there is no concentration on credit risk for accounts receivable.
To minimize the risk of accounts receivable, the Group established a risk management procedure relating to the financial condition of the client, credit risk rating, historical transactions inside the Group, and the current economic situation that may affect the clients’ ability to pay up the bills. The Group also uses some credit-improved tools such as prepayments and credit insurance in order to reduce specific client’s credit risk.

2) Financial investments
The credit risk exposure in the bank deposits, fix income investments and other financial instruments are measured and monitored by the Group’s finance department. As the Group deals with the banks and other external parties with good credit standing and financial institutions, corporate organization and government agencies which are graded above investment level, the management believes that the Group does not have any compliance issues, and therefore, there is no significant credit risk.
- 3) Guarantee
The Group only provide guarantee to wholly owned subsidiaries. The Group did not provide guarantee to any third party as of December 31, 2018 and 2017.
(iv) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is unable to meet the obligations associated with its ’ financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as much as possible, that it always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.
The Group estimates the cost of products and services based on accounting policy in order to assist in monitoring its cash flow requirements and optimizing its cash return on investments. Generally, the Group ensures that there is sufficient cash to cover expected operating expenditure demand, but excluding potential influence under unexpected extremely condition (i.e. nature disaster). In addition, the total amount of unused credit term as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 amounted to $6,150,541 thousand and $4,328,781 thousand respectively.
(v) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that comes from changes in market prices such as changes of foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, impacting the Group’s income or the value of financial instruments held by the Group. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable range and optimize the return on investments.
The Group buys and sells derivatives, and also incurs financial liabilities, in order to manage market risks. All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines set by the board of directors.
- 1) Exchange rate risk
The Group’s exposure to currency risk is on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of the Group, primarily the New Taiwan Dollars (NTD). The currencies used in these transactions are denominated in NTD, USD, VND and CNY.

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
At any point of time, the Group’s principle is to regularly hedge using the net value after offsetting assets and liabilities. The choice of hedging exchange rate risk instruments is based on the cost and the period of hedging. The Group mainly hedges its currency risk using the foreign exchange contracts.
2) Interest rate risk
All of the Group’s assets and liabilities bear floating interest rates, and thus suffer from ’ cash flow interest rate risk exposure. The detail of floating interest rates of the Group s assets and liabilities are described in note of liquidity risk management.
(r) Capital management
The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence, and to sustain the future development of the business. The capital includes common stock, capital surplus, retained earnings and other equities.

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(14) Segment information:
- (a) General information:
The Group has two reportable segments: knitted division, which produces and sells flexible textile and clothing division, which produces, processes and sells clothing.
These two reportable segments are regional operating units and provide different products. Because every regional operating unit needs different techniques and marketing strategy, each should be managed separately; most of operating units are acquired separately and the management team at the time of acquisition is kept.
The Group does not amortize income tax expense (gain), investment income or loss under equity method and extraordinary gain or loss to reportable segments. The reported amount is the same as the amount of the financial statements used by operating decision makers.
- (b) Information about income/loss, assets, liabilities, basis for measurement and reconciliation for reportable segments
The Group’s operating departments accounting policies are all the same as note4 “Summary of accounting policies”. The Group’s operating department measures its income or loss at operating income or loss before income tax and treats operating income or loss before income tax as the basis of assessing performance; the Group treats sales and transfers among departments as related parties’ transactions and is measured at current fair value.
The reconciliation of operating segments of the Group is as follows:
| Revenue: From external clients Intersegments Interest income Total revenue Interest expense Depreciation and amortization Profit or loss from reportable segment Profit or loss from reportable discontinued operations Non-current assets capital expenditure Assets of reportable segments Liabilities of reportable segments |

6.5 Financial Statements for the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and Independent Auditors’ Report
Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of Eclat Textile Co., Ltd.:
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Eclat Textile Co., Ltd. (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and statements of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a 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, 2018 and 2017, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”), International Accounting Standards (“IASs”), interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (“the Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of 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, 2018. 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 are stated as follows:
- Revenue recognition
Please refer to Note 4(m) for details of the accounting policies of the recognition of revenue and Note 6(k) operating revenues.
179
How the matter was addressed in our audit
Revenue recognition of the Company is the main concern of the consolidated financial report users in addiion, the company has adopted IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" since 2018. Therefore, the assessment of revenue recognition is one of the key audit items in our audit.
Our principal audit procedures included:
According to new standards, understanding for operation and industry characteristics to evaluate appropriateness on accounting policies; testing the design and implementation of internal control over revenue recognition, inspecting the accuracy of revenue recognition, and reconciling between sales systems and general ledger; analyzing the Company's main sources of revenues to evaluate whether there are major anomalies; analyzing the trend of revenue from different products to compare the difference between actual and budget; analyzing the agreements of selected customers to understand the sales terms and conditions for revenue recognition and to further inspect related transaction documents to ensure the revenue is recorded in the appropriate period.
- Assessment of inventories
Please refer to Note 4(g) for details of the accounting policies of inventories and Note 6(c) for relevant disclosures of inventories of the financial statements.
How the matter was addressed in our audit
The inventories of the Company are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The industry is subject to seasonal effects resulting in a risk wherein the carrying value of inventories may exceed its net realizable value. Therefore we determined the valuation of inventories is one of the key audit matters in our audit.
Our principal audit procedures included:
Evaluating the rationality of the provision policy for inventory valuation and obsolescence, and understanding whether the valuation of inventory was performed in accordance with the Company's policy; inspecting the inventory aging report and analyzing the trends of inventory aging; assessing the provision for inventory valuation and obsolescence including sampling and inspecting the rationality of the net realizable value of inventories; inspecting the post period sales situation and evaluating the net realizable value of measurement applied on aging inventory in order to verify the evaluation accuracy of the estimated inventory allowance by the Company; and assessing whether the disclosures of provision for inventory valuation and obsolescence were appropriate.
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 Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs, IASs, interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements free from material misstatement 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.
180
Those charged with governance (including members of the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s 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 due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in 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 generally accepted in Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
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.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
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 disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding 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 Company audit.
181
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
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, 2018 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Kuo Hsin Yi and Chen Hsiu Lan.

187
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
Except for the following items, the Company believes that the adoption of the above IFRSs would not have any material impact on its financial statements. The extent and impact of signification changes are as follows:
- (i) IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”
IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. It replaces the existing revenue recognition guidance, including IAS 18 “Revenue” and IAS 11 “Construction Contracts”.
The following are the nature and impacts on changing of accounting policies:
- 1) Sales of goods
For the sale of products, revenue is currently recognized when the goods are delivered to the customers’ premises, which is taken to be the point in time at which the customer accepts the goods and the related risks and rewards of ownership transfer. Revenue is recognized at this point provided that the revenue and costs can be measured reliably, the recovery of the consideration is probable and there is no continuing management involvement with the goods. Under IFRS 15, revenue will be recognized when a customer obtains control of the goods.
- 2) Impacts on financial statements
Based on its preliminary assessment, the Company suggests the point in time at which the customer accepts the goods is similar to when the related risks and rewards of ownership transfer and does not expect that there will be a significant impact on its financial statements.
- (ii) IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”
IFRS 9 replaces IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” which contains classification and measurement of financial instruments, impairment and hedge accounting.
As a result of the adoption of IFRS 9, the Company adopted the consequential amendments to IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements” which requires impairment of financial assets to be presented in a separate line item in the statement of comprehensive income. Previously, the Company’s approach was to include the impairment of accounts receivable in administrative expenses. Additionally, the Company adopted the consequential amendments to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures that are applied to disclosures about 2018 but generally have not been applied to comparative information.
(Continued)
188
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
The detail of new significant accounting policies and the nature and effect of the changes to previous accounting policies are set out below:
- 1) Classification of financial assets and financial liabilities
IFRS 9 contains three principal classification categories for financial assets: measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) and fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). The classification of financial assets under IFRS 9 is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics. The standard eliminates the previous IAS 39 categories of held to maturity, loans and receivables and available for sale. Under IFRS 9, derivatives embedded in contracts where the host is a financial asset in the scope of the standard are never bifurcated. Instead, the hybrid financial instrument as a whole is assessed for classification. For an explanation of how the Company classifies and measures financial assets and accounts for related gains and losses under IFRS 9, please see note 4(f).
The adoption of IFRS 9 did not have any a significant impact on its accounting policies on financial liabilities.
- 2) Impairment of financial assets
IFRS 9 replaces the ‘incurred loss’ model in IAS 39 with the ‘expected credit loss’ (ECL) model. The new impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, contract assets and debt investments at FVOCI, but not to investments in equity instruments. Under IFRS 9, credit losses are recognized earlier than they are under IAS 39 – please see note 4(f).
- 3) Transition
The adoption of IFRS 9 have been applied retrospectively, except as described below,
-
‧The following assessments have been made on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of initial application.
- - The determination of the business model within which a financial asset is held.
-
4) Classification of financial assets on the date of initial application of IFRS 9
The following table shows the original measurement categories under IAS 39 and the new measurement categories under IFRS 9 for each class of the Company’s financial assets as of January 1, 2018.
| Financial Assets Cash and equivalents Net receivables |
IAS39 | IFRS9 | ||

Note1: Notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables that were classified as loans and receivables under IAS 39 are now classified at amortized cost. The adoption of IFRS 9 did not have any effect on retained earnings as of January 1, 2018.
- (b) The impact of IFRS endorsed by FSC but not yet effective
The following new standards, interpretations and amendments have been endorsed by the FSC and are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 in accordance with Ruling No. 1070324857 issued by the FSC on July 17, 2018:
| New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations IFRS 16 “Leases” IFRIC 23 “Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments” Amendments to IFRS 9 “Prepayment features with negative compensation” Amendments to IAS 19 “Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement” Amendments to IAS 28 “Long-term interests in associates and joint ventures” Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2015–2017 Cycle |
Effective date per IASB |
|---|---|
| January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 |
Except for the following items, the Company believes that the adoption of the above IFRSs would not have any material impact on its financial statements. The extent and impact of signification changes are as follows:
(i) IFRS 16“Leases”
IFRS 16 replaces the existing leases guidance, including IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease, SIC-15 Operating Leases – Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease.
IFRS 16 introduces a single and an on-balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees. A lessee recognizes a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. In addition, the nature of expenses related to those leases will now be changed since IFRS 16 replaces the straight-line operating lease expense with a depreciation charge for right-of-use assets and interest expense on lease liabilities. There are recognition exemptions for short-term leases and leases of low-value items. The lessor accounting remains similar to the current standard – i.e. the lessors will continue to classify leases as finance or operating leases.
(Continued)
190
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD. Notes to the Financial Statements
- 1) Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease
On transition to IFRS 16, the Company can choose to apply either of the following:
-
‧ IFRS 16 definition of a lease to all its contracts; or
-
‧ a practical expedient that does not need any reassessment whether a contract is, or contains, a lease.
The Company plans to apply the practical expedient to grant the definition of a lease upon transition. This means that it will apply IFRS 16 to all contracts entered into before January 1, 2019 and identified as leases in accordance with IAS 17 and IFRIC 4.
- 2) Transition
As a lessee, the Company can apply the standard using either of the following:
-
‧ retrospective approach; or
-
‧ modified retrospective approach with optional practical expedients.
The lessee applies the election consistently to all of its leases.
On January 1, 2019, the Company plans to initially apply IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach. Therefore, the cumulative effect of adopting IFRS 16 will be recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2019, with no restatement of comparative information.
When applying the modified retrospective approach to leases previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17, the lessee can elect, on a lease-by-lease basis, whether to apply a number of practical expedients on transition. The Company is assessing the potential impact of using these practical expedients.
-
‧ apply a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.
-
‧ exclude the initial direct costs from measuring the right-of-use assets at the date of initial application.
-
‧ use hindsight when determining the lease term if the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.
-
3) So far, the most significant impact identified is that the Company will have to recognize the new assets and liabilities for the operating leases of its offices, warehouses, and factory facilities. The Company estimated that the right-of-use assets and the lease liabilities to increase by $57,936 thousand and $58,416 thousand respectively, as well as the retained earnings to decrease by $480 thousand on January 1, 2019. No significant impact is expected for the Company’s finance leases. In addition, the Company does not expect the adoption of IFRS 16 to have any impact on its ability to comply with the revised maximum leverage threshold loan covenant. Also, the Company is not required to make any adjustments for leases where the Company is the intermediate lessor in a sub-lease.

The financial statements are presented in New Taiwan Dollar, which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial information presented in New Taiwan Dollar has been rounded to the nearest thousand.
(c) Foreign currency
(i) Foreign currency transaction
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Company at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between the amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year adjusted for the effective interest and payments during the year, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the year.
Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items in a foreign currency that are measured based on historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of transaction.
(ii) Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to the Company’s functional currency at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations, excluding foreign operations in hyperinflationary economies, are translated to the Company’s functional currency at average rate. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income, and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity.
When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Company disposes any part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interest. When the Company disposes only part of investment in an associate of joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, foreign currency gains and losses arising from such items are considered to form part of a net investment in the foreign operation and are recognized in other comprehensive income, and presented in the translation reserve in equity.
- (d) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
An entity shall classify an asset as current with one of the following rules; an entity shall classify all other assets as non-current:
-
(i) It expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal operating cycle;
-
(ii) It holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
(iii) It expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting date; or
-
(iv) The asset is cash or cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
An entity shall classify a liability with one of the following rules as current; an entity shall classify all other liabilities as non-current:
-
(i) It expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle;
-
(ii) It holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
(iii) The liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
-
(iv) It does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
-
(e) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprise cash on hand and cash in bank. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Term deposits that meet the above requirements and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes are classified under cash equivalents.
-
(f) Financial instruments (applicable from January 1, 2018)
-
(i) Financial assets (applicable from January 1, 2018)
Financial assets are classified into the following categories: measured at amortized cost.
(Continued)
194
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
The Company shall reclassify all affected financial assets only when it changes its business model for managing its financial assets.
- 1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
-
‧ it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
‧ its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A financial asset measured at amortized cost is initially recognized at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest revenue, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment loss are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets shall be recognized, as applicable, using trade-date accounting.
-
2)
-
Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, other receivables, refundable deposit and other financial assets).
The Company measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit loss (ECL), except for the following which are measured as 12-month ECL:
- ‧ bank balances for which credit risk (i.e. the risk of default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument) has not increased significantly since initial recognition.
Loss allowance for accounts receivable are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL.
Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.
12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible within the 12 month after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months).
The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Company is exposed to credit risk.
(Continued)
195
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, the Company considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis based on the Company’s historical experience and informed credit assessment as well as forward-looking information.
The Company assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 60 days past due.
The Company considers a financial asset to be in default when the financial asset is more than 180 days past due.
ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the Company in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Company expects to receive). ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is “credit-impaired” when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial assets is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:
-
‧significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;
-
‧a breach of contract such as a default past due; or
-
‧it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;
Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. The Company recognizes the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) in profit or loss, as an impairment gain or loss.
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.
- 3) Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the assets expire, or when the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets.
(Continued)

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(ii) Financial assets (applicable before January 1, 2018)
The Company classifies financial assets into the following categories: loans and receivables.
1) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables comprised accounts receivable and other receivables. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value, plus, any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less, any impairment losses other than insignificant interest on short-term receivables. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets shall be recognized and derecognized, as applicable, using trade-date accounting.
2) Impairment of financial assets
A financial asset is impaired if, and only if, there is an objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events (a loss event) that occurred subsequent to the initial recognition of the asset and that a loss event (or events) has an impact on the future cash flows of the financial assets that can be estimated reliably.
Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired includes default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Company on terms that the Company would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers or issuers, economic conditions that correlate with defaults or the disappearance of an active market for a security. In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is accounted for as objective evidence of impairment.
All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment. Receivables that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together assets with similar risk characteristics. In assessing collective impairment, the Company uses historical trends of the probability of default, the timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management’s judgment as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or lesser that those suggested by historical trends.
The carrying amount of a financial asset is reduced for an impairment loss, except for accounts receivable, in which an impairment loss is reflected in an allowance account against the receivables. When it is determined a receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Any subsequent recovery from written off receivable is charged to the allowance account. Changes in the allowance accounts are recognized in profit or loss.
Recovery and loss on doubtful debts of account receivables are included in the operating expense and non-operating income; others are included in non-operating income and expense.

Notes to the Financial Statements
- 3) Derecognition of financial assets
The Company derecognizes financial assets when the contractual rights of the cash inflow from the asset are terminated, or when the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received or receivable and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in other equity account unrealized gains or losses from available for sale financial assets is recognized as profit or loss under non-operating income and expenses.
On partial derecognition of a financial assets, the relative fair value of the partial derecognized financial assets at the transfer date is used to apportion the original book value of the financial assets on a pro-rata basis, to the portion of continual recognition resulted from continual participation and of derecognition. The difference between the carrying amount apportioned to the portion of the derecognized and the sum of the consideration received or receivable from the derecognized and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income apportioned to the derecognized is recognized as profit or loss under non-operating income and expenses. Any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is apportioned to the portion of continual recognition and derecognition on a pro-rata basis of their fair value.
-
(iii) Financial liabilities and equity instruments
-
1) Classification of debt or equity
Debt or equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as financial liabilities or equity instruments in accordance with the substance of the contractual agreement.
Equity instruments are any contractual agreement that can manifest the Company’s residual interest after assets, less, liabilities. Equity instruments issued are recognized based on amount of consideration received, less, the direct cost of issuing.
Interest related to the financial liability is recognized in profit or loss under non-operating income and expenses.
On conversion, the financial liability is reclassified to equity, and no gain or loss is recognized.
- 2) Financial liabilities reported at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities classified under this category are mainly the financial liabilities held-for-trading or financial liabilities reported at fair value through profit or loss.
(Continued)
198
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
The purposes of financial liabilities held-for-trading are for repurchasing or selling in short-term. Under the following conditions, financial liabilities will be recognized as financial liabilities reported at fair value through profit or loss.
-
a) Measurement and recognition varies because of the elimination or material reduction of gain or loss with different measurement basis for assets and liabilities.
-
b) Financial liabilities measured at fair value.
-
c) Mixed instruments with embedded derivatives.
At initial recognition, this type of financial liabilities is measured at fair value; transaction costs are recognized as income or loss if occurred, and subsequent measurement is measured at fair value. Remeasurements of gains or losses, including relevant interest expense, are recognized as income or loss, and are reported under non-operating revenue and expenditure.
- 3) Other financial liabilities
At initial recognition, financial liabilities not classified as held-for-trading, or designated as fair value through profit or loss, which consist of loans and borrowings, and trade and other payables are measured at fair value, plus, any directly attributable transaction cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost calculated using the effective interest method. Interest expense not capitalized as capital cost is recognized in profit or loss under non-operating income and expenses.
- 4) Derecognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognized when its contractual obligation has been discharged or cancelled or expired.
The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability removed and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss, and is included in non-operating income and expenses.
- 5) Offsetting of financial liabilities and assets
The Company presents financial assets and liabilities on net basis when the Company has the legally enforceable rights to offset, and intends to settle such financial assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
- (g) Inventories
Inventories are necessary expenditures and charges for bringing the inventory to a salable and useable condition and location. In the case of manufactured overhead, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity of labor hours or machine hours and is allocated to finish goods and work-in-progress. Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value subsequently and the cost of inventories is calculated using the monthly weighted-average method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(h) Investment in associates
Associates are those entities in which the Company has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies.
Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are recognized initially at cost. The cost of the investment includes transaction costs. The carrying amount of the investment in associates includes goodwill that arose from the acquisition less any accumulated impairment losses.
The Company’s financial statements include the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of equity accounted investees, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Company, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases.
Unrealized profits resulting from the transactions between the Company and an associate are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interest in the associate. Unrealized losses on transactions with associates are eliminated in the same way, except to the extent that the underlying asset is impaired.
When the Company’s share of losses exceeds its interest in associates, or the carrying amount of the investment, including any long-term interests that form part thereof, is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses should be discontinued except to the extent that the Company has an obligation or has made payments on behalf of the investee.
(i) Investment in subsidiaries
In preparing the financial statements, the Company appraises its investees by using equity method. Under equity method, current income and other comprehensive income from financial statement is the same as the consolidated income and other comprehensive income attributable to parent. Shareholders’ equity is the same as the consolidated shareholders’ equity.
The Company treated the changes of subsidiaries’ equity as transactions among owners.
- (j) Property, plant and equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributed to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of a self-constructed asset comprised the material, labor, any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, and any borrowing cost eligible for capitalization. In addition, the cost also include the amount of the effective cash flow hedge resulted from the foreign currency purchase of property, plant and equipment. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment.
(Continued)
200
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
When property, plant and equipment include different components, which are relatively material to the total cost of the item, different depreciation rate or methods may be applied. These components should be viewed as individual items (main parts) in the property, plant or equipment.
The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item, and it shall be recognized as non-operating income and expenses.
- (ii) Subsequent cost
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure can be assessed reasonably, and will flow to the Company. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognized. Ongoing repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
(iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated based on the depreciable amount of an asset using the straight-line basis over its useful life. The depreciation amount of an asset is determined based on the cost, less, its residual value. The depreciation is assessed according to the material components of each item. If the useful life of one component is different from the others, this component should be depreciated individually. The depreciation charge for each period is recognized in profit or loss.
Land has an unlimited useful life, and therefore, is not depreciated. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years of significant items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
-
1) Buildings: 5 to 60 years.
-
2) Machinery and equipment: 2 to 25 years.
-
3) Transportation equipment: 3 to 8 years.
-
4) Office equipment: 5 to 9 years.
-
5) Miscellaneous equipment: 3 to 15 years.
Depreciation methods, useful lives, and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date. If the expectation of useful lives differs from the previous estimate, the change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.

Notes to the Financial Statements
-
(k) Intangible assets
-
(i) Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Company are measured at cost, less, accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.
(ii) Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
- (iii) Amortization
The amortizable amount is the cost of an asset or other amount substituted for cost, less, its residual value.
Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful life, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
- 1) Software: 2 to 3 years.
The residual value, amortization period, and amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life shall be reviewed at least annually at each fiscal year-end. Any change shall be accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.
(l) Impairment of non-financial assets
Non-financial assets except for inventories, deferred tax assets are assessed at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company shall estimate the recoverable amount of the asset. If it is not possible to determine the recoverable amount (fair value, less, cost to sell and value in use) for the individual asset, then the Company will have to determine the recoverable amount for the asset's cash-generating unit.
The recoverable amount for individual asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value, less costs to sell and its value in use.
The Company assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized in prior periods for an asset other than goodwill may no longer exist or may have decreased. An impairment loss recognized in prior periods for an asset other than goodwill shall be reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

(m) Revenue recognition
- (i) Revenue from contracts with customers (applicable from January 1, 2018)
Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or a service to a customer.
The Company manufactures and sells elastic fabrics and clothing. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has full discretion over the channel and price to sell the products, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer’s acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
A receivable is recognized when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the Company has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional.
(ii) Revenue recognition (applicable before January 1, 2018)
Revenue from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence exists, usually in the form of an executed sales agreement that the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer. Recovery of the consideration is probable. The associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing management involved with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. If it is probable that discounts will be granted and the amount can be measured reliably, then the discount is recognized as a reduction of revenue as the sales are recognized.
The timing of the transfers of risks and rewards varies depending on the individual terms of the sales agreement. International shipments transfer usually occurs upon loading the goods onto the relevant carrier at the port. For domestic sales, transfers occur upon issuing of receipt by the customer.
(n) Employee benefits
- (i) Defined contribution plans
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plan are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees.
(Continued)
203
ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
(ii) Defined benefit plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Company’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit pension plan is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Any fair value of any plan assets are deducted from the aforesaid discounted present value. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on bonds (market yields of government bonds) that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Company’s obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid.
The calculation of defined benefit obligation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a benefit to the Company, the recognized asset is limited to the present value of economic benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. In order to calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any minimum funding requirements that apply to any plan in the Company. An economic benefit is available to the Company if it is realizable during the life of the plan, or on settlement of the plan liabilities.
When the benefits of a plan are improved, the portion of the increased benefit relating to past service by the employees, the expense is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Remeasurement of the net defined benefit liabilities includes:(a) actuarial gains and losses; (b) return on plan assets, not including the amounts of net interest included in net defined benefit liabilities; and (c) any changes of the amounts of affecting of upper limits of assets, not including the amounts of net interests included in net defined benefit liabilities.
Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings.
The Company recognized gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of a defined benefit plan when the curtailment or settlement occurs. The gain or loss on curtailment comprises any resulting change in the fair value of plan assets, change in the present value of defined benefit obligation.
- (iii) Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed when related service are provided.
A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

Notes to the Financial Statements
- (o) Income taxes
Income tax expenses include both current taxes and deferred taxes. Except for expenses related to business combination, or those recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive income, all current and deferred taxes shall be recognized in profit or loss.
Current taxes include tax payables and tax receivables on taxable gains (losses) for the year calculated using the statutory tax rate on the reporting date or the actual legislative tax rate, as well as tax adjustments related to tax payable in prior years.
Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases. Deferred taxes shall not be recognized for the below exceptions:
-
(i) Assets and liabilities that are initially recognized but are not related to the business combination and have no effect on net income or taxable gains (losses) during the transaction.
-
(ii) Temporary differences arising from equity investments on subsidiaries or joint ventures where there is a high probability that such temporary differences will not reverse.
-
(iii) Initial recognition of goodwill.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities shall be measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities may be offset against each other if the following criteria are met:
-
(i) The entity has the legal right to settle tax assets and liabilities on a net basis; and
-
(ii) The taxing of deferred tax assets and liabilities fulfill one of the below scenarios:
-
1) Levied by the same taxing authority; or
-
2) Levied by different taxing authorities, but where each such authority intends to settle tax assets and liabilities (where such amounts are significant) on a net basis every year of the period of expected asset realization or debt liquidation, or where the timing of asset realization and debt liquidation is matched.
A deferred tax asset should be recognized for the carry-forward of unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which they can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets shall also be reviewed at each reporting date, and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

(p) Earnings per share
The Company reports the basic earnings per share and the diluted earnings per share. The basic earnings per share are calculated based on the profit attributable to the ordinary shareholder of the Company divided by weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. The diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company, divided by weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding after adjustment for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(q) Operating segments
The Company has already disclosed the segment information in the consolidated financial statement; therefore, the Company need not disclose the segment information again in the financial statement.
(5) Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty:
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with the Regulations and the IFRSs endorsed by the FSC requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The management continues to monitor the accounting estimates and assumptions. The management recognizes any changes in accounting estimates during the period and the impact of those changes in accounting estimates in the next period.
Refer to note 4(g) inventories for information of accounting policies regarding assumptions and significant judgments which has material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The Company applies the simplified approach to provide for its expected credit losses, i.e. the use of lifetime expected loss provision for all receivables on December 31, 2018. To measure the expected credit losses, notes and accounts receivable have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due, as well as incorporated forward looking information. The loss allowance provision as of December 31, 2018 was determined as follows:
| Current Within 30 days past due 31~120 days past due Over 121 days past due |

7) Sensitivity analysis
As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the effects of the present value of the defined benefit obligation arising from changes in principal actuarial assumptions were as follows:
| December 31, 2018 Discount rate (change 0.25%) Future salary increases rate (change 0.25%) December 31, 2017 Discount rate (change 0.25%) Future salary increases rate (change 0.25%) |

|---|---|
| Increase 0.25% $ (7,239) 7,254 (7,047) 7,093 |
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. The sensitivity analysis adopts the same methods for determining the defined benefit assets at the balance sheet date.

(iii) Retained earnings
According to the Company’s articles of incorporation, 10% of annual net earnings (net of income taxes), after deducting accumulated deficits, must be set aside as legal reserve. The remaining portion is to be distributed upon a proposal by the board of directors and approval in an annual shareholders’ meeting.
The Company is now in the growth stage and has a plan to expand the product line. Due to the need for capital to fulfill the plan, the policy for dividend distribution should reflect factors such as investment planning, financial structure, future fund requirements, and status of earnings. In a normal consideration, the percentage of earnings distribution shall not be less than 50% of the net earnings of the current year after compensating for accumulated deficits, if any. The board of directors shall make the distribution proposal, and it is then approved at the shareholders’ meeting. The ratio for distributing cash dividends shall not be lower than 20% of the total distribution.
1) Legal reserve
In accordance with the Company Act, 10% of net income after tax should be set aside as legal reserve, until the legal reserve is equal to authorized capital. If the Company experienced profit for the year, the distribution of the statutory earnings reserve, either by new shares or by cash, shall be decided at the shareholders meeting, and the distribution amount is limited to the portion of legal reserve which exceeds 25% of the paid-in capital.
2) Special reserve
A regulation issued by the Securities and Futures Bureau requires a special reserve be made from the unappropriated earnings, equivalent to current income or loss and prior period-undistributed earnings from the reduction of other equity; the special reserve appropriated from prior period-undistributed earnings cannot be distributed. If the reductions of other equity reverse, the reverse parts can be distributed. The Company is applicable to the regulations in Interpretation No.1010012865 by FSC for recognizing special reserve.
3) Earnings appropriation and distribution
Earnings distributions for 2017 and 2016 were decided via the annual general meeting of the shareholders held on June 14, 2018 and June 16, 2017, respectively. The relevant dividend distributions to shareholders were as follows:

- 2) Sensitivity analysis
The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, bank borrowings and accounts payable. A 1% depreciation or appreciation of the TWD against the USD as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 would have increased or decreased the net income after tax by $30,214 thousand and $25,957 thousand respectively. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant and ignores any impact of forecasted sales and purchases. The analysis is based on the same basis.
- 3) Foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items
The realized and unrealized exchange gain (loss) amounted to $200,938 thousand and ($505,169) thousand, at the average rates of 30.149 and 30.432 for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
- (iv) Interest rate analysis
The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk arising from financial assets and liabilities is described in the liquidity risk part of this note.
The following sensitivity analysis is determined through the exposure to interest rate risk of derivative and non-derivative instruments on the reporting date. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis assumes that the balances of outstanding liabilities on the reporting date have been outstanding for the whole period, and their rational change intervals are being estimated. If the interest rate increases/decreases by 1%, representing the reasonable interest rates changes made by management.

ECLAT TEXTILE CO., LTD.
Notes to the Financial Statements
- 1) Accounts receivable
Every single client affects the credit risk exposure of the Company, but still, the management should consider the status of its clients, including the industry the client belongs to and the default risk of the country where the client is located. Because the transaction of the Company is not concentrated in one single client for 2018 and 2017, therefore, there is no concentration on credit risk for accounts receivable.
To minimize the risk of accounts receivable, the Company established a risk management procedure relating to the financial condition of the client, credit risk rating, historical transactions inside the Company, and the current economic situation that may affect the clients’ ability to pay up the bills. The Company also uses some credit-improved tools such as prepayments and credit insurance in order to reduce specific client’s credit risk.
- 2) Financial investments
The credit risk exposure in the bank deposits, fix income investments and other financial instruments are measured and monitored by the Company’s finance department. As the Company deals with the banks and other external parties with good credit standing and financial institutions, corporate organization and government agencies which are graded above investment level, the management believes that the Company does not have any compliance issues, and therefore, there is no significant credit risk.
- 3) Guarantee
The Company only provide guarantee to wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company did not provide guarantee to any third party as of December 31, 2018 and 2017.
- (iv) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as much as possible, that it always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
The Company estimates the cost of products and services based on accounting policy in order to assist in monitoring its cash flow requirements and optimizing its cash return on investments. Generally, the Company ensures that there is sufficient cash to cover expected operating expenditure demand, but excluding potential influence under unexpected extremely condition (i.e. nature disaster). In addition, the total amount of unused credit term as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 amounted to $4,094,379 thousand and 1,987,976 thousand respectively.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(v) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that comes from changes in market prices such as changes of foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, impacting the Company’s income or the value of financial instruments held by the Company. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable range and optimize the return on investments.
The Company buys and sells derivatives, and also incurs financial liabilities, in order to manage market risks. All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines set by the board of directors.
1) Exchange rate risk
The Company’s exposure to currency risk is on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of the Company, primarily the New Taiwan Dollars (NTD). The currencies used in these transactions are denominated in NTD, USD, VND and CNY.
At any point of time, the Company’s principle is to regularly hedge using the net value after offsetting assets and liabilities. The choice of hedging exchange rate risk instruments is based on the cost and the period of hedging. The Company mainly hedges its currency risk using the foreign exchange contracts.
2) Interest rate risk
All of the Company’s assets and liabilities bear floating interest rates, and thus suffer from cash flow interest rate risk exposure. The detail of floating interest rates of the Company’s assets and liabilities are described in note of liquidity risk management.
(q) Capital management
The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence, and to sustain the future development of the business. The capital includes common stock, capital surplus, retained earnings and other equities. Therefore, the capital management of the Company focuses on ensuring necessary financial resources and increase stockholders’ value, examining the capital return periodically. The Company’s return on capital as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

For amount variance exceeding NT$ 10,000 thousand and the percent variance exceeds 20%, the causes are analyzed as follows:
-
(1) Other assets: It was mainly due to the start of the third phase of factory expansion plan of Eclat Fabrics Co., Ltd (Vietnam) in 2018, and the equipment prepayment amount was increased.
-
(2) Other liabilities: It was mainly due to the increase of the appropriation of defined benefit plan of 2018 was deposited into the pension dedicated account at Bank of Taiwan, and the net present value of a defined benefit liability balance was decreased from the amount in 2017.
-
(3) Retained earnings: Since the revenue and profit grow in 2018 and the amount of cash dividend issuance was decreased, the retained earnings were increased.
235
(4) Accumulated translation adjustment and others: Due to the exchange rate fluctuation, the exchange difference calculated on the foreign operating institution financial statements is significantly reduced.

7. 6 Analysis of Risk Management:
- Impact of interest rate, exchange rate fluctuation and inflation condition on the profit/loss of the company and future countermeasures:
(1) Interest rates:
The working capital of the consolidated company mainly comes from the operating cash income and the amount gained from the bank loan. Assuming that the short term outstanding loan balance was NT$ 1,629,979 thousand at the end of 2018, if the interest rate is increased or decreed by 1%, then under the condition where all other variables remain unchanged, it will cause an increase or decrease of interest expense at an amount of approximately NT$ 2,005 thousand for the company.
241
Future countermeasures:
In addition to the improvement in the product development, the consolidated company also executes business expansion and cost control in order to increase the profitability and the own fund such that the loan amount can be reduced and the interest expense be further decreased. Moreover, to reduce the risk of interest rate, the bank loan interest rate is evaluated regularly or irregularly. The company also actively negotiates with banks in order to obtain financing interest rate of greater discount; therefore, the interest rate fluctuations cannot cause major risk to the company.
- (2) Regarding the exchange rate fluctuation:
The main income and partial expense of the consolidated company is in USD; therefore, exchange rate fluctuation can still have impact on profit/loss in the foreign currency exchange transactions of the company. At the end of 2018, the USD net asset with exchange rate risk is NTD 148,769,000. If the exchange rate of NTD to USD depreciates or appreciates by 1%, under those conditions where all other factors remain unchanged, then it will cause an increase or decrease of net income after tax of the company by approximately NTD 36,556 thousand.
Future countermeasures:
The consolidated company will timely perform foreign exchange accounts receivable factoring in order to reduce the foreign currency holding position, and will utilize foreign exchange forward as well as hedging process according to the market exchange rate fluctuation in order to reduce the loss caused by the exchange rate fluctuation.
-
(3) Regarding the inflation: Up to the printing date of the annual report, the impact of inflation on the company is not significant. However, in view of the uncertainty of the global economic situation, the company cannot guarantee whether the future inflation or deflation can cause major changes, impact consumer confidence or reduce consumers’ purchase intention, leading to major adverse impacts on the business operation result of the company.
-
Policies on engaging in high risk, high leverage investments, loaning funds to others, endorsement and guarantee as well as derivative transactions, main causes of profit and loss as well as future countermeasures:
The company does not engage in the investment action involving high risk or high leverage investments. The company provides endorsements and guarantees to subsidiaries, and the purpose is mainly
242
for the fund financing needs of each re-investment company in order to increase the flexibility in the utilization of the operating capital. Presently, the payment of interests and debt repayment of each re-investment company are normal such that there is no significant risk on the company.
-

In addition, with the difference in the yarn denier number and knit structure in layers, moisture can be guided in an inside-out, such that the drying speed can be increased. The development is expected to be completed in September 2019.
-
b. Versatility and universality of functional fabrics: To satisfy the global consumer market demand for fashion of functional clothing, the
244
variations of functional fabrics in terms of touch-feeling, appearance and stiffness become broader. With the integration of development of new yarn and technology of engineer jacquard, the variety of patterns and the formability of functional fabrics are increased. Through processing, different touch-feel can be created and the stereotype of artificial fabrics can be reduced. Therefore, designers are able to achieve greater application for style designs. The development is expected to be completed in September 2019.
In 2019, the Company implements the functional fabric and garment development project, and it is expected to invest an amount of NT$ 140 million as the budget for the product development and promotion.
