Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of Emerging Display Technologies Corp.:

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Emerging Display Technologies Corp. and subsidiaries (the Group), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the Group's consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and its consolidated financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards(IFRS), International Accounting Standards(IAS), IFRIC Interpretations(IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations(SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit 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 Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group 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 consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. The key audit matters we judged shall be presented in the consolidated financial report as follows:

1. Valuation of accounts receivable

Please refer to Note 4(g) for accounting policy of accounts receivable valuation and Note 5(a) for accounting assumption and estimation uncertainty of impairment of accounts receivable. Information regarding accounts receivable is shown in Note 6 (d) of the consolidated financial statements.

Description of key audit matters:

The Group’s customers are the manufacturers of industrial equipment, smart home devices, handheld devices, and information appliance products. The customers’ delayed payments were due to the need to clarify the responsibility of problematic products resulted from failure of process or usage of end products, and global economic turmoil. Because of the inherent credit risk of receivables, the financial statements users value the collection results. Since the accounts receivable is significant to the financial statements, they are one of the key areas our audit focused on.

~4-1~

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures included understanding the process of account checking and collection with customers; analyzing the receivable aging report; reviewing the historical receipt and bad debt records; and understanding the forward looking industrial economy status and concentration of credit risk of the customers. In addition, we also evaluated the appropriateness of related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

2. Valuation of obsolete inventory

Please refer to Note 4(h) for accounting policy of obsolete inventory and Note 5(b) for accounting assumption and estimation uncertainty of obsolete inventory valuation. Information regarding obsolete inventory valuation is shown in Note 6(f) of the consolidated financial statements.

Description of key audit matters:

Obsolete inventory is carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. The Group is engaged in the manufacture and sale of liquid crystal displays and capacity touch panels. It focuses on the small and medium sized niche markets of non-consumable area. The products are used in industrial equipment, smart home devices, handheld devices, and information appliance products. The development strategy of the Group is diversifying and customizing its products which may result in having an impact on its obsolete inventory cost. As a consequence, there is a risk that the net realizable value of obsolete inventory may turn out to be lower than it’s carrying value. Therefore, the valuation of obsolete inventory is one of the key areas our audit focused on.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures included selecting samples to test the accuracy of inventory aging report; analyzing the changes of inventory aging, and examining the provision of inventory by reviewing the historical accuracy on provision. We assessed the changes of obsolescence inventory in the subsequent events and the basis of net realizable value to evaluate the accuracy of the Group’s provisions. In addition, we also assessed the appropriateness of the provisions and disclosures made by the management.

Other Matters

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Emerging Display Technologies Corp. as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, on which we have issued an unmodified opinion.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the 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 the management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease its operations, there is no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance including supervisors are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

~4-2~

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the 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 the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

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

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Or, if such disclosures are inadequate, we have 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 Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on this consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

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

~4-3~

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 of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Po Jen, Yang and Yen Ta, Su.

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to consolidated financial statements

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(All amounts expressed in Thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise specified)

(1) Organization and Business Scope

Emerging Display Technologies Corp. (the Company) and its subsidiaries was incorporated as a limited liability Group under the laws of the Republic of China (ROC) on September 23, 1994. The address of its registered office and principal place of business is No.5, Central 1st Rd, Kaohsiung Economic Processing Zone, Kaohsiung City, Taiwan. The Consolidated financial statements comprise Emerging Display Technologies Corp. and its subsidiaries (jointly referred to as the Group). The Group is engaged in the manufacture and sale of Capacity Touch Panel and liquid crystal displays (LCDs).

(2) Financial Statements Authorization Date and Authorization Process

The consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on March 10, 2021.

(3) Application of New and Revised International Financial Reporting Standards and Interpretations

  • (a) The impact of the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, R.O.C. which have already been adopted.

The details of impact on the Group’s adoption of the new amendments beginning January 1, 2020 are as follows:

  • (i) Amendments to IFRS 16 “COVID 19 Related Rent Concessions”

As a practical expedient, a lessee may elect not to assess whether a rent concession that meets certain conditions is a lease modification, rather any changes in lease liability are recognized in profit or loss. The amendments have been endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, R.O.C. (“FSC”) in July 2020, earlier application from January 1, 2020 is permitted. Related accounting policy is explained in Note 4(k).

The Group has elected to apply the practical expedient for property, plant and equipment rents that meet the criteria beginning on January 1, 2020, with early adoption. No adjustment was made upon the initial application of the amendments. The amounts recognized in profit or loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $1,418.

  • (ii) Other amendments

The following new amendments, effective January 1, 2020, do not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements:

(4) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying financial statements are the English translation of the Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China. If there is any conflict between, or any difference in the interpretation of, the English and Chinese language consolidated financial statements, the Chinese version shall prevail.

The significant accounting policies presented in the financial statements are summarized as follows. Except for those specifically indicated in Note 3 and Note 4(k), the following accounting policies were applied consistently throughout the presented periods in the financial statements.

(a) Statement of compliance

These consolidated annual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers (hereinafter, referred to as the Regulations) and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations and SIC Interpretations endorsed by the FSC (hereinafter, referred to as the IFRS endorsed by the FSC).

(b) Basis of preparation

  • (i) Basis of measurement

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for the following significant items:

  • 1) Financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value;

  • 2) Fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value;

  • 3) The defined benefit liabilities (assets) are measured at fair value of the plan assets less the present value of the defined benefit obligation, limited as explained in note 4(q).

  • (ii) Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each entity is determined based on the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in New Taiwan dollars, which is the Group’s functional currency. All financial information presented in New Taiwan dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

(c) Basis of consolidation

  • (i) Principle of preparation of the consolidated financial statements

The Group consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all directly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The 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 return through its power over the investee.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that the Group’s control commences until the date that control ceases. Intergroup balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intergroup

11

transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Subsidiaries contribute total comprehensive income to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interest having a deficit balance.

Financial statements of subsidiaries had been adjusted to use uniform accounting policies as 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. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the parent.

(d) Foreign currency

  • (i) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the entities at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that 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 translation.

Exchange differences are generally recognized in profit or loss, except for the following accounts which are recognized in other comprehensive income:

  • 1) an investment in equity securities designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income;

  • 2) a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation to the extent that the hedge is effective; or

  • 3) qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent that the hedges are effective.

  • (ii) Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustment arising on acquisition, are translated to New Taiwan dollar at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations, excluding foreign operations in hyperinflationary economies, are translated to New Taiwan dollar at the average rate. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

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 of any part of its interest in a subsidiary, association or join venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interest.

When the settlement of a monetary 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.

(e) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities

An asset is classified as current under one of the following criteria, and all other assets are classified as non-current:

  • (i) The asset is expected to be realized or is intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle;

  • (ii) The asset is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • (iii) The asset is expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • (iv) The asset is cash or a 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.

13

A liability is classified as current under one of the following criteria, and all other liabilities are classified as non-current:

  • (i) The liability is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;

  • (ii) The liability is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • (iii) The liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period;

  • (iv) The entity 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 issuance of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

(f) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and demand deposits that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. The time deposits that meet the definition above and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments in operations rather than for investment or other purposes should be recognized as cash equivalents.

(g) Financial instruments

Account receivable and debt securities issued are initially recognized when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset (unless it is a accounts receivable without a significant financing component) or financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A accounts receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the transaction price.

(i) Financial assets

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

On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at: amortized cost-equity investment; Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) - debt investment; FVOCIequity investment; or FVTPL. Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its business model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in the business model.

  • 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 amount and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost, which is the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial recognition, plus/minus, the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method, adjusted for any loss allowance. Interest income, 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.

  • 2) Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)

14

A debt investment is measured at FVOCI 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 achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets;and

  • ‧its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal amount and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Group may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investment’ s fair value in other comprehensive income. This election is made on an investment-by-investment basis.

Debt investments at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

Equity investments at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognized as income in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss.

Dividend income derived from equity investments is recognized on the date that the Group’s right to receive payment is established, which in the case of quoted securities is normally the ex-dividend date.

  • 3) Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

All financial assets not classified as amortized cost or FVOCI described as above are measured at FVTPL, including derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate a financial asset, which otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortized cost or at FVOCI, as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss.

4) Business model assessment

The Group makes an assessment of the objective of the business model in which a financial asset is held at portfolio level because this best reflects the way the business is managed and information is provided to management. The information considered includes:

‧the stated policies and objectives for the portfolio and the operation of those policies in practice. These include whether management's strategy focuses on earning contractual interest income, maintaining a particular interest rate profile, matching the duration of the financial assets to the duration of any related liabilities or expected cash outflows or realizing cash flows through the sale of the assets ;

‧how the performance of the portfolio is evaluated and reported to the Group's management ;

15

‧the risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business model) and how those risks are managed ;

‧how managers of the business are compensated ─ e.g. whether compensation is based on

the fair value of the assets managed or the contractual cash flows collected; and

‧the frequency, amount and timing of sales of financial assets in prior periods, the reasons for such sales and expectations about future sales activity.

Transfers of financial assets to third parties in transactions that do not qualify for derecognition are not considered sales for this purpose, and are consistent with the Group's continuing recognition of the assets.

Financial assets that are held for trading or are managed and whose performance is

evaluated on a fair value basis are measured at FVTPL.

5)

Assessment whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest

For the purposes of this assessment, 'principal' is defined as the fair value of the financial assets on initial recognition. 'Interest' is defined as consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs, as well as a profit margin.

In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest, the Group considers the contractual terms of the instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition. In making this assessment, the Group considers that:

‧contingent events that would change the amount or timing of cash flows ;

‧terms that may adjust the contractual coupon rate, including variable rate features ;

‧prepayment and extension features ; and

‧terms that limit the Group's claim to cash flows from specified assets (e.g. non- recourse features)

  • 6) Impairment of financial assets

The Group recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses (ECL) on its financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable and accounts receivable, other receivables, refundable deposits and other financial assets) and debt investment measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).

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:

‧debt instruments that are determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date; and

  • ‧other debt instruments and 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.

16

Loss allowance for accounts receivables and contract assets is always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL.

Lifetime ECL is the ECL that results from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

12-month ECL is the portion of ECL that results from default events that is 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 ECL is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, 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, informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information.

If there is a low risk of default on financial asset, the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term and adverse changes in economic and business conditions in the longer term may, but will not necessarily, reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfil its contractual cash flow obligations, the financial asset would be considered low credit risk.

When the contract amount is past due or the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, the Group considers the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly or a financial asset to be in default.

ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of the expected lifetime credit losses on financial assets. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flow due to the Group in accordance with the contracts and the cash flow the Group expects to receive). ECLs are discounted based on the effective rate of financial assets.

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.

17

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 or being overdue;

’ ‧the lender of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower s financial difficulty, having granted to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider;

‧it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization; or

‧the disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties.

Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt securities at FVOCI, the loss allowance is charge to profit or loss and is recognized in other comprehensive income.

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when the Group has no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. For corporate customers, the Group individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Group expects no significant recovery from the amount written 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 amount due.

7) Derecognition of financial assets

The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.

The Group enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognized in its statement of balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets. In these cases, the transferred assets are not derecognized.

  • (ii) Financial liabilities and equity instruments

1) Classification of debt or equity

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

2) Equity instrument

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued are recognized as the amount of consideration received, less the direct cost of issuing.

  • 3) Treasury stock

18

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

When shares recognized as equity are repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, which includes directly attributable costs, is recognized as a deduction from equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury stocks. When treasury stocks are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognized as an increase in equity, and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is recognized in capital surplus or retained earnings (if the capital surplus is not sufficient to be written down).

  • 4) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognized in profit or loss.

Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognized in profit or loss. 5) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Group derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire. The Group also derecognizes a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognized at fair value.

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

  • 6) Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities are presented on a 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.

  • (iii) Derivative financial instruments

The Group to held derivative financial instruments is held to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate exposures. Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if the host contract is not a financial asset and certain criteria are met.

Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally recognized in profit or loss.

(h) Inventories

Inventories are measured individually at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories includes all necessary costs of purchase, costs of conversion, and other costs in bringing the inventories to a salable and useable location and condition. The production overhead is allocated to the finished goods and work in progress based on the normal capacity of production facilities.

Net realizable value is determined based on the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less, the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses at the end of the period.

19

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

(i) Investment Property

Investment property is a property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Investment property is measured at cost on initial recognition and subsequently at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.

Depreciation expense is calculated based on the depreciation method, useful life, and residual value which are the same as those adopted for property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an investment property (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount) is recognized in profit or loss.

Rental income from investment property is recognized as other revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognized as an integral part of the total rental income, over the term of the lease.

(j) Property, plant and equipment

(i) Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, which includes capitalized borrowing costs, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in profit or loss.

  • (ii) Subsequent cost

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group.

  • (iii) Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated on the cost of an asset less its residual value and is recognized in profit or loss on a straightline basis over the estimated useful lives of each component of an item of property, plant and equipment.

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:

Buildings 2~50 years
Machinery and equipment 2~10 years
Furniture and fixtures 3~5 years
Other equipment 1~10 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives, and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.

(iv) Reclassification to investment property

The property is reclassified to investment property at its carrying amount when the use of the property changes from private to investment property.

(k) Leases

  • (i) Identifying a lease

At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group assesses whether:

  • 1) the contract involves the use of an identified asset-this may be specified explicitly or implicitly, and should be physically distinct or represent substantially all of the capacity of a physically distinct asset. If the supplier has a substantive substitution right, then the asset is not identified; and

  • 2) the Group has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset throughout the period of use;and

  • 3) the Group has the right to direct the use of the asset if either:

  • ‧the Group has the right to direct the use of the identified asset when it has the decision-making rights that are most relevant to the changes on how and for what purpose the asset is used throughout the period.

  • ‧the decision on how and for what purpose, the asset is used is predetermined:

  • –the Group has the right to operate the asset and the providers do not have the right to vary;or

  • –the Group designed the asset in a way that predetermines how and for what purpose, it will be used.

At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices. However, at the time of lease of land and construction, the Group chooses to treat the lease component and the non-lease component as part of a single lease without distinguishing between non-lease components.

  • (ii) As a lessee

The Group recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be reliably determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate, Generally, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.

21

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:

  • 1) Fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;

  • 2) Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;

  • 3) Amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee;and

  • 4) Payments or penalties for purchase or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised.

The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when:

  • 1) there is a change in future lease payments arising from the change in an index or rate;

  • 2) there is a change in the Group’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee;

  • 3) there is a change in the assessment regarding the purchase options;

  • 4) there is a change of its assessment on whether it will exercise an extension or termination option;

  • 5) there is any lease modifications in lease subject, scope of the lease or other terms.

When the lease liability is remeasured, other than lease modifications, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or in profit and loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

When the lease liability is remeasured to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease for lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease, the Group accounts for the remeasurement of the lease liability by decreasing the carrying amount of there right-of-use asset to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease, and recognize in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease.

The Group presents right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that do not meet the definition of investment as a separate line item respectively in the balance sheets.

For short-term lease of office equipment and low-value underlying asset lease, the Group chooses not to recognize the right-of-use asset and lease liability, and the related lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line method over the lease term.

As a practical expedient, the Group elects not to assess whether property, plant and equipment rents that meets all the following conditions are lease modifications or not:

1) the rent concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the COVID 19 pandemic;

2) the change in lease payments that resulted in revised consideration for the lease that is substantially the same as, or less than, the consideration for the lease immediately preceding the change;

3) any reduction in lease payments that affects only those payments originally due on, or before, June 30, 2021; and

4) there is no substantive change in other terms and conditions of the lease.

In accordance with the practical expedient, the effect of the change in the lease liability is reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the rent concession occurs.

22

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

(iii) As a lessor

When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease commencement whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease. To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers to the lessee substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, then the lease is a finance lease; if not, then lease is an operating lease. As part of this assessment, the Group considers certain indicators such as whether the lease is for the major part of the economic life of the asset.

When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short-term lease to which the Group applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease.

If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, the Group applies IFRS15 to allocate the consideration in the contract.

(l) Intangible assets

  • (i) Recognition and measurement

Expenditure on research activities is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Development expenditure is capitalized only if the expenditure can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable and the Group intends to, and has sufficient resources to, complete development and to use or sell the asset. Otherwise, it is recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, development expenditure is measured at cost, less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group include patents and computer software costs 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

Amortization is calculated over the cost of the asset, less its residual value, and is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use.

The estimated useful life of intangible assets for the current and comparative periods is as follows:

ws:
Patents 9~20 years
Computer software cost 3 months~4 years

Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if it’s necessary.

23

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

(m) Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amount of its non-financial assets (other than inventories, contract assets, deferred tax assets and investment properties and biological assets, measured at fair value, less costs) to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated.

For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU.

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount.

Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. They are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis.

For other assets, 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) Provision

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognized as finance cost.

(o) Revenue

  • (i) Revenue from contracts with customers

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 accounting policies for the Group’s main types of revenue are explained below.

  • 1) Sale of good

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.

The Group provides standard warranties for goods sold and has obligation to replace or maintain for the defective goods, in which the Group has recognized provisions for

24

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

warranties to fulfill the obligation.

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.

Contract liability is primarily generated from advanced receipts of commodity sales contract. The Group will recognize revenue when deliver commodity to customers.

  • 2) Financing components

The Group does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Group does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.

  • (ii) Contract cost with customers

  • 1) Incremental cost of obtaining a contract

If the Group is expected to receive the incremental cost of obtaining customer’s contract, the cost should recognize as asset. Incremental costs are costs that would not have been incurred had that individual contract not been obtained. Any other costs of obtaining a contract are expensed when incurred, unless they are explicitly chargeable to the customer regardless of whether the contract is obtained. As a practical expedient, incremental costs of obtaining a contract can be expensed if the amortization period would be one year or less.

  • 2) Costs to fulfil a contract

In accounting for costs to fulfil a contract, the Group must first assess whether the costs fall within the scope of another IFRS (e.g. IAS 2 Inventories, IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment and IAS 38 Intangible Assets) and, if so, account for them in accordance with that standard. The Group can only recognize the cost as an asset only if they:

  • Relate directly to a contract, or to an anticipated contract that can be specifically identified;

  • Generate or enhance resources to be used to satisfy performance obligations in future; and

  • Are expected to be recovered.

General and administrative costs that are not explicitly chargeable to the customer and the costs of wasted materials, labor and other resources that were not reflected in the price of the contract do not qualify. Costs relating to satisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations must be expensed.

25

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

(p) Government grants

The Group recognizes an unconditional government grant as other income when the grant becomes receivable. Other government grants related to assets are initially recognized as deferred income at fair value if there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and the Company will comply with the conditions associated with the grant; they are then recognized in profit or loss as other income on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses or losses incurred are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the periods in which the expenses or losses are recognized.

(q) Employee benefits

  • (i) Defined contribution plans

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are expensed as the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.

  • (ii) Defined benefit plans

The Group's net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated separately for each the plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair value of any plan assets.

The calculation of defined benefit obligations is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a potential asset for 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. To calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any applicable minimum funding requirements.

Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability, which comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income, and accumulated in retained earnings within equity. The Group determines the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liability (asset) for the period by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation at the beginning of the annual period to the then-net defined benefit liability (asset). Net interest expense and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in profit or loss.

When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefit that relates to past service or the g in or loss on curtailment is recognized immediately in profit or loss. The Group recognizes gams and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.

26

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

  • (iii) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Group recognizes costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date, then they are discounted.

  • (iv) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be pain under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Consolidated 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.

(r) Share-based payment

The grant-date fair value of equity-settled share-based payment arrangements granted to employees is generally recognized as an expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the vesting period of the awards. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognized is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date.

For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant-date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions, and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.

The fair value of the amount payable to employees in respect of share appreciation rights, which are settled in cash, is recognized as an expense with a corresponding increase in liabilities, over the period that the employees become unconditionally entitled to payment. The liability is re-measured at each reporting date and at settlement date based on the fair value of the share appreciation rights. Any change in the liability is recognized in profit or loss.

(s) Income taxes

Income taxes comprise current taxes and deferred taxes. Except for expenses related to business combinations or recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive income, all current and deferred taxes shall be recognized in profit or loss.

The Group has determined that interest and penalties related to income taxes, including uncertain tax treatment, do not meet the definition of income taxes, and therefore accounted for them under IAS37.

Current taxes comprise the expected tax payables or receivables on the taxable profits (losses) for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax payables or receivables are the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reflects uncertainty related to income taxes, if any. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

27

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases. Deferred taxes are recognized except for the following:

  • (i) The initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss); or

  • (ii) Temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and

  • (iii) Taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred taxes are measured at tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reserve, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and reflect uncertainty related to income taxes, if any.

The Group shall offset deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if, and only if:

  • (i) The Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and

  • (ii) The deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either:

  • 1) The same taxable entity; or

  • 2) Different taxable entities, but where each such entity 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 to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset shall be recognized for the carry forward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilized. At the end of each reporting period, an entity reassesses unrecognized deferred tax assets; such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves.

(t) Earnings per share

The Group discloses the basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to common equity holders of the Company. The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the profit attributable to the common shareholders of the Company divided by the weighted-average number of common stocks outstanding. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the profit attributable to common shareholders of the Company, divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding after adjustment for the effects of all dilutive potential common stock, such as convertible bonds.

(u) Operating segments

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the Group. Operating results of the operating segment are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance. Each operating segment consists of standalone financial information.

28

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

(5) Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimates uncertainty:

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the IFRSs endorsed by the FSC requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that may affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Management is required to constantly examine the fairness of those estimates and assumptions. The effect of change in accounting estimate shall be recognized prospectively by including it the profit or loss in the current period or future periods.

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year is as follows. Those assumptions and estimation have been updated to reflect the impact of COVID 19 pandemic:

(a) Impairment of accounts receivables

The Group has estimated the loss allowance of accounts receivable that is based on the risk of a default occurring and the rate of expected credit loss. The Group has considered historical experience, current economic conditions and forward looking information at the reporting date to determine the assumptions to be used in calculating the impairments and the selected inputs. Please refer to note 6(d) for relevant assumptions and input values.

(b) Valuation of obsolete inventories

As obsolete inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, the Group estimates the net realizable value of inventories for obsolescence and unmarketable items at the end of the reporting period and then writes down the cost of inventories to net realizable value. The net realizable value of the obsolete inventory is mainly determined based on assumptions as to future demand within a specific time horizon. Due to the rapid industrial transformation, there may be significant changes in the net realizable value of obsolete inventories. Please refer to note 6(f) for further description of the valuation of inventories.

On November 17, 2016, the Group entered into a syndicated loan agreement with eight banks leaded by Tai Shin Bank for the period from the date of first borrowing to the three-year term with cycle use lines of credit. The credit line will decrease every 6 months since two years after the first appropriation date. The first and second phase will decrease by 20% of the effective credit line, and the third phase will decrease by 60%. The Group will repay the total borrowing upon maturity. Restrictions related to the contract are as follows:

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

Pursuant to the loan contract, for the duration of the loan, the Group must conform to the predetermined financial covenants involving special financial ratios calculated based on the annual consolidated financial statements. If the special financial ratios cannot meet the requirement, the Group should improve within nine months after the end of the fiscal year. If the adjusted financial ratios reviewed by the certified accountant meet the requirements, it will not be regarded as breach of the contract. During the period for adjustment, unused lines of credit, excluding the revolving credit extension, will be suspended until such ratios are in compliance with the contract requirement. But during the said period, the interest rate would increase to 0.125% unless the majority of the consortium agreed the exemption proposed by the Company. The financial covenants were as follows:

  • (i) A maximum debt ratio of 150% should be maintained.

  • (ii) A minimum current ratio of 100% should be maintained.

  • (iii) A minimum times interest earned ratio of 2.5 should be maintained.

  • (iv) Minimum net tangible assets of $1,600,000 should be maintained.

The Group borrowed the amount of $400,000 on August 15, 2017. As of December 31, 2020, the contract had expired and the borrowed amount had been fully repaid.

The Group signed a 5-year syndicated loan contract with E.SUN bank and seven other banks on May 15, 2020, with a revolving credit line of $800,000 from the first appropriation date to maturity date, wherein $800,000 can be appropriated by using the Company's own fund and $600,000 by using commercial paper, and the combined credit line should not exceed $800,000. According to the loan contract, the Group should repay the syndicated loan contract signed on November 17, 2016 before the first appropriation date. Additionally, the date after 9 months when the contract was signed will be considered as the first appropriation date to calculate the revolving credit even if the credit line is unused after 9 months. As of December 31, 2020, the credit line had not been used.

Assets pledged as collateral for long-term loans are disclosed in note 8.

(i) Lease of land, building and construction

The Group leases land and buildings for its office use. The leases of land and buildings run for approximately 2 to 10 years, and the lease period of office premises is usually 2 to 3 years.

Lease payments for certain contracts are subject to changes in the local price index, which usually occur once a year.

Part of the lease includes an option to extend the same period of the original contract at the end of the lease term.

The lease agreements for some of the equipment include the option to extend the lease or terminate the lease, which are managed separately by each region, and therefore the individual terms and conditions agreed upon are different within the Group. These options are only for the Group to have enforceable rights and the lessor does not have this right. In the event that it is not possible to reasonably determined the period of the extended lease that will be exercisable, the related payments over the period covered by the option are not included in the lease liability.

  • (ii) Other leases

The lease period for the Group leased transportation equipment is one to two years.

The Group supervises the use of such transportation equipment and re-measures the lease liability and right-of-use assets on the reporting date.

In addition, the lease term of the Group leased machinery and equipment is one to three years. These leases are short-term or low-value leases. The Group chooses to apply the exemption recognition requirement without recognizing its related right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

(q) Operating lease

The Group rent its investment property. Since almost all the risks associated with the ownership of the underlying assets are not transferred, this lease contract was classified as an operating lease. Please refer to Note 6 (k) Investment property.

The maturity analysis of lease payments was the total undiscounted lease payments to be received in the future disclosed as of December 31, 2019, as below:

5) Actuarial assumptions

The following are the Group’s principal actuarial assumptions:

Discount rate at December 31
Future salary increases
2020.12.31
0.750%
2.000%
**2019.12.31 **
1.125%
2.500%

The expected allocation payment to be made by the Group to the defined benefit plans for the one-year period after the reporting date is $4,339.

The weighted-average lifetime of the defined benefits plans is 17.27 years.

6) Sensitivity analysis

If the actuarial assumptions had changed, the impact on the present value of the defined benefit obligation shall be as follows:

enefit obligation shall be as follows:
December 31, 2020
Discount rate (change of 0.25%)
Change in future salary (change of 0.25%)
December 31, 2019
Discount rate (change of 0.25%)

The above sensitivity analysis analyzing the effects of changes in single assumptions is based on other assumptions remaining unchanged. In actuality, changes in some assumptions may be linked together. The sensitivity analysis and calculation of the net pension liability on the balance sheet were performed using the same approach.

There is no change in the method and assumptions used in the preparation of sensitivity analysis for 2020 and 2019.

(ii) Defined contribution plan

The Group allocates 6% of each employee’s monthly wages to the labor pension personal account at the Bureau of the Labor Insurance in accordance with the provisions of the Labor Pension Act. Under this defined contribution plan, the Group allocates a fixed amount to the Bureau of the Labor Insurance without additional legal or constructive obligations.

The pension benefit of Dong Guan Emerging Display Limited, Emerging Display Technologies Corp., U.S.A., EDT-Europe Aps, Emerging Display Korea and EDT-Japan Corp. are based on their respective local regulation of defined contribution plan. The accrued expenses should be recognized as current expenses. Besides, Ying Dar Investment Development Corp., Bae Haw Investment Development Corp., Ying Cheng Investment Corp., Emerging Display International (Samoa) Corp. and Tremendous Explore Corp. (Tremendous Explore Corp. was liquidated in July, 2020) do not have any employee and pension plan. Therefore, there is no pension benefit obligation required.

According to the Company Act, any realized capital surplus is initially used to cover any deficit, and the balance, if any, could be transferred to common stock as stock dividend or distributed as cash based on a resolution approved by the stockholders. Realized capital surplus includes the premium derived from the issuance of shares of stock in excess of par value and endowments received by the Company. According to the “Regulations Governing the Offering and Issuance of Securities by Securities Issuers”, the combined amount of any portions capitalized in any one year may not exceed 10% of paid-in capital.

(iii) Retained earnings

Base on the regulations of our Company, if the Company’s annual final accounts show surplus, it shall first pay the taxes, offset past annual loss, and then set 10% as regulatory surplus reserve. However, it is not applicable if the statutory surplus reserve has reached our Company’s paid-up capital. Also based on the Company’s operational needs and regulatory requirements, provisions shall be made for special reserve. If there are still surplus, the board of directors shall draft a surplus distribution proposal by combining it with the undistributed surplus at the beginning of period, on not more than 80% of the year’s distributable surplus, and submit to the shareholders meeting for approval.

The Company’s industry is in a stable growth phase. It has adopted a residual dividend policy based on its future capital budget plan and operating capital needs. The Company also takes the effects of dilutive potential shares and the effect on ROE into consideration in calculating EPS. Therefore, the distribution policy gives priority to cash dividends and then stock dividends. However, the cash dividend distribution should not be lower than 50 percent of the total dividend distribution of the current year.

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

  • 1) Legal reserve According to the ROC Company Act, when a Company incurs no loss, it may, pursuant to a resolution approved by the shareholders, distribute its legal reserve by issuing new shares or distributing cash for the portion in excess of 25% of the paid-in capital.

  • 2) Special reserve

In accordance the Ruling NO.1010012865 issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission on April 6, 2012, a portion of undistributed prior-period earnings shall be reclassified as a special earnings reserve (which does not qualify for earnings distribution) to account for cumulative changes to other shareholder’s equity pertaining to prior periods due to the first-time adoption of IFRSs. Amounts of subsequent reversals pertaining to the net reduction of other shareholder’s equity were for additional distributions. As of December 31, 2020, and 2019 the special reserve $102,612 and $112,571, have been approved by the annual shareholders’ meeting, respectively.

In accordance with Ruling No. 1010047490 issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission on November 21, 2012, if the market value of the Company’s shares is lower than the carrying value of the Company’s shares held by the subsidiaries at year-end, the Company should retain a special reserve amounting to the difference between the market value and the carrying value, based upon the Company’s ownership percentage in the subsidiaries. When market value rebounds, the Company could reverse the special reserve. As of December 31, 2020, and 2019, the special reserve $0 and $38,736 have been approved by the annual shareholders’ meeting, respectively.

  • 3) Earnings distribution

2) Sensitivity analysis

The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, other receivables, financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, accounts payables, and other payables. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, if the exchange rate of the TWD versus the USD, CNY, JPY, and EUR have increased or decreased by 1%, given no changes in other factors, profit after tax would have increased or decreased by $9,710 and $11,205, and other comprehensive income after tax would have increased or decreased by $114 and $0, respectively. The analysis is performed on the same basis of prior year.

  • 3) Exchange gain or loss

The Group has variety kinds of functional currencies, hence we use summarized method to disclose exchange gain (loss) of monetary items. For year 2020 and 2019, foreign exchange loss (including realized and unrealized) amounted to gain (loss) $(75,156) and $(32,890), respectively.

  • (iv) Interest rate analysis

Please refer to liquidity risk management for the detail of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities’ interest exposure.

The sensitivity analysis of interest was made based on the interest rate of derivative and non-derivative instruments at the reporting date. The analysis of liabilities bearing floating interest rates was prepared based on the assumption that the outstanding amount at the reporting date had existed for the whole year.

57

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

The rate of change used by the Group as interest to report to the management lever is ±0.25% of the interest rate. This also represents the management’s assessment of the reasonable scope of change.

If interest rates on loans had increased or decreased by 0.25% with all other variables held constant. Profit after tax for the years 2020 and 2019 would have been decreased or increased by $1,400 and $1,440, respectively, mainly as a result of liabilities bearing floating interest rates.

  • (v) Other price risk

If the equity price changes on the reporting date (adopt the same basis of analysis for both periods, with the assumption that other variable factors remain unchanged), the impact on the comprehensive gain or loss items are as follows:

Notes to consolidated financial statements

The Group measures its assets and liabilities use input observable market data. The fair value hierarchy categorizes the inputs used in valuation techniques are as follows:

  • Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in the active markets for identified assets or liabilities.

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

  • Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

  • 2) Valuation techniques and assumptions unused in fair value determination

  • A. Financial assets measured at amortized cost

If the quoted prices in active markets are available, the market price is established as the fair value. However, if quoted prices in active markets are not available, the fair value will be estimated by valuation technique or the prices quoted by competitors.

B. Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost

If there is quoted price generated by transactions, the recent transaction price and quoted price data is used as the basis for fair value measurement. However, if no quoted prices are available, the discounted cash flows are used to estimate fair values.

  • 3) Valuation techniques and assumptions used in fair value determination

Non-derivative instruments

If a financial instrument has a quoted price in an active market, the quoted price is used as fair value. Quoted prices of major stock exchanges and quoted prices of government bonds are the basis for measuring the fair value of stocks listed on an exchange, stocks listed on the OTC, and debt instruments with quoted prices in an active market.

The fair values of the Group’s listed securities and open-end funds with standard terms and conditions and traded in active markets are determined by the quoted market prices.

Measurements of fair value of financial instruments without active market are based on valuation technique or quoted price from competitor. Fair value measured by valuation technique can be extrapolated from similar financial instruments, discounted cash flow method or other valuation technique. Using discounted cash flow method to calculate fair value, the main assumption is to reflect monetary time value and return of invest risk to discount and measure based on investee’s estimated future cash flow.

Derivative instruments

The fair value of Swap contracts is based on quoted prices from the counterparty.

  • 4) Transfer between level 1 and level 2

There was no transfer between the fair value hierarchy levels for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

  • 5) Movement of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income categorized as Level 3

(aa) Financial risk management

  • (i) Overview

The extent of risk exposure arising from the use of financial instruments was as follows:

  • 1) Credit risk

  • 2) Liquidity risk

  • 3) Market risk

The Group’s risk management objective, policies and procedures and the exposure risk arising from the aforementioned risks are disclosed below. For more quantitative information, please refer to other notes to the consolidated financial statements.

  • (ii) Risk management framework

The Board of Directors has the overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. Every department is responsible for planning and controlling the risk management of the Group’s operation and reports it to the Board regularly.

The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Group, 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, products and services offered. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aim to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment, in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.

The supervisor 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 supervisor is assisted in its oversight role by an internal Audit. An Internal Audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Board of Directors.

(iii) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss of the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, which arises principally from the Group’s accounts receivable, bank deposits and foreign exchange derivative instruments.

  • 1) Accounts receivable and other receivables

The credit risk is impacted by the individual situation of each client. The Group continuously monitors the information concerning client credit risk factors, such as the default risk of the industries and countries in which the customers operate.

According to the credit policy, the Group has to evaluate the credit of each new customer before setting the payment and delivery terms. The evaluations include external credit ratings, if available, and bank references. The Group reviews credit limits periodically and requires customers to pay in advance when the customers’ credit ratings did not meet the benchmark.

2) Investments

The credit risk exposure in the bank deposits and derivative financial instruments are measured and monitored by the finance department. Since the Group’s transactions were with financial institutions with good credit ratings, there were no noncompliance issues, and therefore, there is no significant credit risk. Investments in other financial instruments are measured and monitored by the finance department with the instruction from the chairman to ensure each risk of investment target is under the Group’s affordable level.

63

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

  • (iv) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it always has sufficient liquidity to meet its liability when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group reputation.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group has unused credit facilities for short-term loan amounting to $1,973,097 and $1,592,106, respectively.

  • (v) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and equity prices, which will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control the market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

The Group engages in derivative financial instruments trading in order to manage the market risk, thus, generating financial liabilities or financial assets, all the execution of those transactions were under the Board’s instruction.

  • 1) Currency risk

The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of the Group’s entities, primarily the New Taiwan dollar TWD), US dollar (USD), Japan Yen (JPY), Danish Krone (DKK), China Yuan (CNY) and Korean Won (KRW). The currencies used in these transactions are the TWD, USD, JPY, EUR and CNY.

At any point of time, the Group’s principle is to hedge using the net values after offsetting payables and receivables or assets and liabilities which are generated by business operation. The Group mainly hedges its currency risk using the foreign exchange agreements wherein the maturity date is less than 6 months.

  • 2) Interest risk

The Group adopts a policy to ensure the exposure of changes in interest rates on borrowings is evaluated by the trend in market interest rates. The Group can manage its interest risk through maintaining an appropriate portfolio of floating interest rate and fixed interest rate.

  • 3) Other market price risk

The Group is exposed to equity price risk due to the investments in equity instruments and mutual funds that contain uncertainty of future prices risk. Therefore, the Group monitors and manages the equity investments by holding different investment portfolio and regularly updating the information of equity instruments and mutual funds investment.

64

EMERGING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

(ab) 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 future development of the business. Capital consists of common stocks, non-redeemable preference stocks, retained earnings and non-controlling interests of the Group. The Board of Directors monitors the return on capital as well as the level of dividends to common shareholders.

The Group meets its objectives in managing its capital to safeguard the capacity to continue to operate, to continue to provide a return on shareholders and interest of other related parties and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the dividend payment to the shareholders, reduce the capital for redistribution to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to settle any liabilities.

The Group and other entities in the same industry use the debt-to-equity ratio to manage their capital. This ratio is the total net debt divided by the total capital. The net debts from the balance sheet are derived from the total liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents. The total capital and equity include stock capital, capital surplus, retained earnings, other equity, and non-controlling

interest. In 2020, the Group’s capital management strategy is consistent with the prior year. The Group’s debt-to-equity ratio at the end of the reporting period as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, is as follows:
