INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

Elite Advanced Laser Corporation:

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Elite Advanced Laser Corporation (the “Company”), which comprise the balances sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).

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

Basis for Opinion

We perform the audit work in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statement section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matters of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 is as follows:

The veracity of the sales revenue of specific customers

The Company’s operating income in 2025 was $1,903,838 thousand, with an operating revenue growth rate of approximately 39%. However, among customers with material annual sales

  • 2 -

amounts, the total operating revenue of those with revenue growth rates higher than the overall operating revenue growth rate (excluding subsidiaries) accounted for approximately 48% of the overall operating revenue, which has a significant impact on the individual financial statements. Therefore, we have included the authenticity of the sales revenue from the aforementioned specific customers as a key audit matter for the 2025 individual financial statements. Please refer to Note 4 (12) of the Financial Statements for the description of the income recognition policy.

The sales authenticity to specific customer of a subsidiary accounted for using the equity method

The Company's operating revenue for 2025 increased compared to 2024. However, among customers with material sales amounts this year, the total revenue of those with revenue growth rates higher than the subsidiary's overall revenue growth rate accounted for approximately 30% of the total revenue, which has a significant impact on the financial statements. Thus, we have considered sales authenticity related to the aforementioned specific customers as a key audit matter in the 2025 financial statements.

Our accounting procedures on the sales revenue of the above-mentioned specific customers and the sales revenue of specific customers of the subsidiary accounted for using the equity method include:

  1. By understanding the relevant internal control systems and operating procedures of the sales transaction cycle, we design the internal control auditing procedures according to the veracity of the sales revenue and confirm and evaluate the relevant internal control procedure during the sales transactions for whether the design and implementation are effective.
  2. We obtain the list of the above-mentioned specific customers in 2025, and evaluate whether their relevant background, transaction amount, credit line and company size are reasonable.
  3. We select samples from the above-mentioned specific customer sales details, examine the sales slips, customs declarations, bills of lading, sales invoices, payment collections, and major sales returns after the balance sheet date to confirm the veracity of the sales revenue.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including the audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but


is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  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 Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the 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 findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

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

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements and related consequential amendments

IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”. The main changes in this standard include:

  • The Company shall assess whether it possesses specific main business activities, such as investing in specific types of assets and providing financing to customers. Based on this assessment, income and expense items in the statement of profit or loss shall be classified into operating, investing, financing, income tax, and discontinued operations categories.

  • An entity has to present totals and subtotals in the statement of profit or loss for operating profit or loss, pre-tax profit or loss before financing, and profit or loss.

  • Requirements for provision of guidance to enhance aggregation and disaggregation: The Company should identify assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses, losses, and cash flows in each transaction or other events, and classify and aggregate them based on shared characteristics so that the main line items presented in the financial statements share at least one similar characteristic. Items should be disaggregated based on non-similar characteristics. The Company should label such items as "other" only if it cannot find a more informative title.

  • Increasing the disclosure of management-defined performance measures (MPMs): When the Company engages in public communications outside financial statements and communicate to management’s view of an aspect of the financial performance of the entity as a whole, the Company should disclose information about its MPMs in a single note to the financial statements, including a description of how the MPM is measured, how the MPM is calculated, and a reconciliation between the MPM and the total or subtotal required by IFRS Accounting Standards, including the income tax effect and the effect on non-controlling interests for each item disclosed in the reconciliation.

Furthermore, IAS 7 "Statement of Cash Flows" has undergone the following consequential amendments:


  • When the Company prepares cash flows from operating activities using the indirect method, "operating profit or loss" shall be used as the starting point for reconciliation.
  • Interest and dividends received by the Company shall be classified as investing activities, while interest and dividends paid shall be classified as financing activities. If the Company is assessed to have specific main business activities, it must consider the classification of dividend income, interest income, and interest expense presented in the statement of profit or loss to determine the classification of dividends received, interest received, and interest paid within the statement of cash flows; provided, however, that each such cash flow may only be classified within a single activity in the statement of cash flows.

In addition to the above impacts, as of the reporting date of this financial statement, the Company continues to assess other impacts of amendments to the standards and interpretations on the financial position and financial performance, and the relevant impact will be disclosed when the assessment is completed.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a. Statement of compliance

This financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

b. Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the net defined benefit liability recognized at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of the plan assets.

Fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable and its significance:

1) Level 1 Inputs: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.
2) Level 2 Inputs: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly (including market-corroborated data).
3) Level 3 Inputs: unobservable inputs and are used when relevant observable inputs are not available.

When preparing the financial statements, the Company used the equity method to account for its investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. In order for the amounts of the net profit for the year, other comprehensive income for the year and total equity in the financial statements to be the same with the amounts attributable to the owners of the Company in its consolidated financial statements, adjustments arising from the differences in accounting treatments between the company only basis and the consolidated basis were made to investments accounted for using the equity method, the share of profit or loss of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method, the share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method and the related equity items, as appropriate, in these financial statements

c. Criteria for classifying assets and liabilities into current and non-current.

Current assets:

1) Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
2) Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and

  • 14 -

3) Cash and cash equivalents (unless the asset is to be used for an exchange or to settle a liability, or otherwise remains restricted, at more than 12 months after the balance sheet date).

Current liabilities:
1) Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
2) Liabilities expected to be settled within 12 months of the balance sheet date, and
3) Liabilities for which there is no substantive right at the balance sheet date to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.

Current assets or current liabilities other than those stated above are classified as non-current assets or liabilities.

d. Foreign currencies

When preparing the financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the parent company's functional currency (foreign currency) shall be converted into functional currency at the exchange rate on the transaction day.

Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the closing rates at each balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items shall be recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency shall be translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction; and shall not be re-translated.

For the purpose of presenting financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the domestic and foreign entities (including subsidiaries, associates or branches in other countries that use currencies that are different from the currency of the Company) are translated into the New Taiwan Dollar at the exchange rate on each balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate for the current period, and the exchange differences recognized in profit or loss.

e. Inventories

Inventories include raw materials, supplies and finished goods. Inventories shall be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, and the comparison between cost and net realizable value is based on individual items except for inventories of the same category. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price under normal circumstances less the estimated cost to complete the project and the estimated cost to complete the sale. The Company's inventory is recorded at standard cost during daily operation and adjusted to approximate weighted-average cost at the end of the reporting period.

f. Investments in subsidiaries

The Company uses the equity method to account for its investments in subsidiaries.

A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the Company.

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

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

  • 15 -

When the Company’s share of losses of an associate and a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in that associate and joint venture (which includes any carrying amount of the investment accounted for by the equity method and long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company’s net investment in the associate and joint venture), the Company continues to recognizing its share of further losses.

The Company assesses its investment for any impairment by comparing the carrying amount with the estimated recoverable amount as assessed based on the financial statements of the cash-generating unit as whole. When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount (less amortization expenses or depreciation expenses) that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

The unrealized gains and losses from transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated in the financial reports. When a Company entity transacts with its associate, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate are recognized in the financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate that are not related to the Company.

g. Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment shall be recognized at cost, and subsequent measurement shall be presented at costs subtracted by accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item shall be depreciated separately portion with a straight-line method over their useful lives. The Company shall review the estimated useful life, residual value and depreciation method at least at each financial year-end, and the impact of changes in accounting estimates shall be applied prospectively.

Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.

h. Intangible assets

1) Additions

Intangible assets with a limited useful life acquired separately shall be initially measured at cost, and subsequent measurement shall be presented at costs subtracted by accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets shall be amortized with a straight-line method within the useful life where the Company shall review the estimated useful life, residual value and amortization method at least at each financial year-end, and the impact of changes in accounting estimates shall be applied prospectively.

2) Derecognition

Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of intangible assets is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.

i. Impairment of property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets and intangible assets

The Company assess the property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, investment property, and intangible assets for whether there is any indication of impairment at the balance sheet date. If there is any indication that an asset may be impaired, the recoverable amount shall be estimated for the individual asset. If it is

  • 16 -

not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the Company shall determine the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The groups of assets are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units that can be allocated on a reasonable and consistent basis.

The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or a cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. (net of amortization or depreciation) A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

j. Financial instrument

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

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

1) Financial assets

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

(1) Category of financial assets and measurement

The types of financial assets held by the Company are financial assets measured at amortized cost.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost

Financial assets that meet following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost:

(i) The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
(ii) The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost, including cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable at amortized cost, accounts receivable (including related parties), other receivables (including related parties; excluding income tax refund receivables), overdue receivables and refundable deposit, are measured at amortized cost, which equals to gross carrying amount determined by the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.

Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of such a financial asset, except for:

  • 17 -

(i) Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset, for which interest income is calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets.

(ii) Financial asset that is not credit impaired on purchase or origination but has subsequently become credit impaired, for which interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets in subsequent reporting periods.

A financial asset is credit impaired when significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower; breach of contract; it is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or undergo a financial reorganization; or the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

(2) Impairment of financial assets and contract assets

On each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates the impairment loss of financial assets (including notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables and deposits) and contract assets measured at amortized cost based on expected credit losses.

Accounts receivable and contract assets are recognized as allowance losses based on lifetime expected credit losses. Other financial assets are evaluated on whether the credit risk has increased significantly since the original recognition. If there is no significant increase, the loss provision shall be recognized as the 12-month expected credit loss, and if there has been a significant increase, the loss provision shall be recognized as the expected credit loss during the duration.

Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. 12-month ECLs represent the portion of lifetime ECLs that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. In contrast, lifetime ECLs represent the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

For internal credit risk management purposes, the Company determines that the following situations indicate that a financial asset is in default (without taking into account any collateral held by the Consolidated Company):

(i) Internal or external information show that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors.

(ii) When a financial asset is due longer than 180 days, unless the Group has reasonable and corroborative information to support a more lagged default criterion.

As for the impairment losses on all financial assets, the carrying amounts there are reduced directly or through an allowance account.

(3) Derecognition of financial assets

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

  • 18 -

On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss.

2) Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as financial liabilities or equity based on the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at acquisition price less direct issuance cost.

Repurchase of the Company's own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. Its carrying amount is calculated using the weighted-average method based on the type of stock. The purchase, sale, issue, or cancellation of the Company's own equity instruments is not recognized in profit or loss.

3) Financial liabilities

(1) Subsequent measurement

Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except where the recognition of interest on short-term payables is not material.

(2) Derecognition of financial liabilities

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

k. Provisions

The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. A provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation.

Warranties

The warranty obligation to ensure that the product conforms to the agreed specifications is recognized when the relevant product is recognized as revenue based on the management’s best estimate of the expense required to settle the obligations of the Company.

l. Revenue recognition

When a performance obligation is satisfied, the Company shall recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to that performance obligation.

Operating revenue

1) Service revenue

Revenue from packaging and testing

The Company’s packaging service creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company’s performance as the Company performs

The relevant revenue will be transferred to the customer with the promised goods or services, and the sales revenue will be recognized when the performance obligations are met over time. The revenue received before meeting the above-mentioned performance obligations are recognized as contract liabilities.

2) Lease and other services

  • 19 -

Other service revenue is recognized as revenue when the service contract conditions are met in accordance with the relevant contract when the economic benefits are likely to flow into the Company and the revenue can be measured reliably. The revenue received before meeting the above-mentioned performance obligations are recognized as contract liabilities.

m. Lease

The Company assesses whether the contract is a lease on the contract establishment date.

1) The Company as lessor

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

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

2) The Company as lessee

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

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost (including the original measurement amount of the lease liability and the lease payment paid before the lease commencement date), and subsequently measured at the cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. Right-of-use assets shall be recognized separately in the balance sheet.

The lessee shall depreciate the right-of-use asset on a straight-line basis 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.

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the lease payments including fixed payments and variable lease payments which depend on an index or a rate. The lease payments shall be discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee shall use the lessee's incremental borrowing rate.

Subsequently, the lease liability is measured on an amortized cost basis using the effective interest method, and the interest expense is amortized over the lease term. When there is a change in a lease term, or a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Company remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use-assets. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero, any remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. For lease modifications not accounted for as a separate lease: For a decrease in lease scope, the remeasurement of the lease liability results in a reduction of the right-of-use asset, with any gain or loss recognized for the partial or full termination of the lease. For all other modifications, the remeasurement of the lease liability results in a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset. Lease liabilities shall be recognized separately in the balance sheet.

n. Borrowing costs

  • 20 -

Borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

o. Employee benefits

1) Short-term employee benefits

Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for service rendered by employees.

2) Post-employment benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as expenses when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.

Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) under defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost) and net interest on the net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are recognized as employee benefits expense in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which it occurs. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.

Net defined benefit liabilities (assets) represent the actual deficit (surplus) in the Company's defined benefit plans. Net defined benefit assets cannot exceed present value of the plan's returned contributions or possible decrease in future contributions.

p. Income tax

Income tax expense is the sum of current income tax and deferred income tax.

1) Current income tax

The Company determines the current income (loss) in accordance with the laws and regulations formulated by the income tax reporting jurisdiction, and calculates the payable (recoverable) income tax accordingly.

According to the Income Tax Act, an additional tax on unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the stockholders approve to retain earnings.

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

2) Deferred income tax

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

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

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

  • 21 -

there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and such temporary differences are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

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

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

3) Current and deferred tax

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

  1. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION AND UNCERTAINTY

When consolidated company adopts accounting policies, the management must make relevant judgments, estimates and assumptions based on experience and other relevant factors for the information that is not easily obtained from other sources. Actual results may differ from estimates.

The Company will take the possible impacts of inflation and market interest rate fluctuations, foreign exchange market fluctuations, and U.S. reciprocal tariff measures into consideration when making major estimates, such as cash flow estimates, growth rates, discount rates, and profitability. The management will continue to review the estimates and the basic assumptions.

Main sources of uncertainty in estimates and assumptions

Estimated impairment of financial assets and contract assets

The estimated impairment of notes receivables, account receivables, other receivables and contract assets is based on the Company's assumptions about the loss given default and probability of default. The Company takes experience, current market conditions and forward-looking information into account to develop assumptions and inputs for impairment assessments. Please refer to Note 7 and Note 19 for the key assumptions and inputs used. If the actual future cash flow is less than the Company's expectations, there may be significant impairment losses.

a. Notes receivables

It refers to notes receivable arising from the sale of property, plant, and equipment. When determining the recoverability of notes receivable, the Company considers any changes in the quality of notes receivable from the original credit date to the balance sheet date. The Company continues to monitor and refer to the counterparty's past default records and analyze its current financial position to assess whether the credit risk of the notes receivables has increased significantly since the original recognition and to measure expected credit losses. As of December 31, 2025, the Company assessed that there was no need to recognize expected credit losses for notes receivables.

The aging analysis of notes receivable (including current and non-current) is as follows:

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Not past due Not past due
Total amount $ 108,500 $ -
Less: Unrealized interest income ( 2,036 ) -
Amortized cost $ 106,464 $ -

The above is an aging analysis based on days overdue.

b. Accounts receivable

The Company's average credit period for commodity sales ranges from prepayment to net 90 days end of the month, and the collection policy does not add interest to overdue accounts receivable. When determining the recoverability of accounts receivable, the Company considers any changes in the quality of notes receivable from the original credit date to the balance sheet date. Experience shows that most accounts receivable are recovered well.

To mitigate credit risk, the management of the Company performs credit limit determination, credit approval and other monitoring procedures for each counterparty to ensure appropriate actions have been taken to recover overdue accounts receivable. In addition, the Company will review the recoverable amount of accounts receivable one by one on the balance sheet date to ensure the unrecoverable accounts receivable are recognized as impairment losses. Accordingly, the management of the Company believes that the credit risk of the Company has been significantly reduced.

The Company recognizes loss allowance for accounts receivable based on lifetime expected credit losses. Lifetime expected credit losses are calculated using a provision matrix, which considers experience, current market conditions and business outlook. As the Company's credit loss experience shows that there is no


significant difference in the provision matrix of different customer groups, the provision matrix does not further differentiate customer groups, and only sets the expected credit loss rate based on the number of days overdue for accounts receivable.

If there is evidence that the counterparty is facing serious financial difficulties and the Company cannot reasonably expect the recoverable amount, the Company will write off the relevant accounts receivable and loss allowance, but will continue to pursue account recovery, and the amount recovered due to pursuit and recovery will be recognized in profit or loss.

The Company measures the loss allowance of accounts receivable according to the provision matrix as follows:

December 31, 2025

Not past due Past due within 60 days Past due 61-90 days Past due 91-120 days Past due over 120 days Total

18. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

a. Determined contribution plans

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

b. Defined benefit plans

The defined benefit plan adopted by the Company in accordance with the "Labor Standards Act" is operated by the government. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the 6 months before retirement. The Company contributes amounts equal to 2% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the Supervisory Committee of Business Entities' Labor Retirement Reserve. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee's name. Before the end of each year, if the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, Elite Advanced Laser Corporation is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor; the Company has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.

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

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Present value of defined benefit obligation $ 52,444 $ 45,168

1) Investment risk: The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor or under the mandated management which is invested in domestic and foreign equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets should not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.

2) Interest risk: A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments.

3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

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

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Discount rate 1.38% 1.50%
Expected rates of salary increase 3.00% 3.00%

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

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Discount rate
Increase by 0.25% ($ 665) ($ 748)
Decrease by 0.25% $ 688 $ 774
Expected rates of salary increase
Increase by 0.25% $ 666 $ 752
Decrease by 0.25% ($ 648) ($ 731)

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

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Expected contributions to the plan for the next year $ 404 $ 404
Average duration of the defined benefit obligation 5.1 years 6.6 years

Note 1: Such capital surplus can be used to offset a deficit, in addition, when the Company has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or stock dividends up to a certain percentage of the Company's paid-in capital.

Note 2: This capital surplus is the amount of equity transaction impact recognized due to changes in the Company's equity when the Company does not subscribe to the subsidiary's equity in proportion to its shareholding, or the adjusted amount recognized by the Company using the equity method to recognize the subsidiary's capital surplus.

c. Retained earnings and dividend policy

In accordance with the Company's earnings distribution policy in the Articles of Association, if there is a surplus after the annual financial report, the Company will pay taxes and make up for previous annual deficit and add items other than the after-tax net profit to the undistributed earnings for the current period. Also, 10% of legal reserve shall be set aside and if necessary. If the legal reserve has reached the

  • 36 -

Company's paid-in capital, this allocation may cease. Furthermore, a special reserve shall be allocated or reversed in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. The accumulated undistributed earnings from the previous year shall be added to the distributable earnings. The Board of Directors shall then draft a proposal for earnings distribution to be submitted to the shareholders' meeting for a resolution. The distributable earnings mentioned above may be retained by the Board of Directors as needed for the Company's operations. When the net amount of other equity deductions accumulated in the previous period is set aside as a special reserve, if the undistributed earnings in the previous period is insufficient to be set aside, items other than after-tax net profit plus after-tax net profit for the current period are included in the undistributed earnings for the current period. The Company's dividend policy is based on an assessment of the Company's future capital needs for sustained investment, research and development, and operations, in order to maintain a sound financial structure for sustainable development. Earnings will be appropriately distributed in the form of stock dividends or cash dividends, depending on the Company's operation. The total amount of dividends shall be at least 5% of the earnings for the current year, of which cash dividends shall not be less than 20% of the total dividends.

Please refer to Note 20 (8) Employee Remuneration and Director Remuneration for the employees and directors remuneration policy stipulated in the Articles of Association of the Company.

According to Article 237 of the Company Act, when allocating surplus profits after having paid all taxes and dues, shall first set aside 10% of said profits as legal reserve. Where such legal reserve amounts to the total paid-in capital, this provision shall not apply. The legal reserve can be used to make up for losses. When the Company has no losses, the portion of the legal reserve exceeding 25% of the total paid-in capital can be allocated in cash in addition to being accounted as share capital.

The Company set aside the special reserve in accordance with the Official Letter Chin-Kuan-Cheng-Fa-Tzu No. 1090150022 and "Questions and Answers for Special Reserves Appropriated Following Adoption of IFRSs (IFRS Accounting Standards)". The Company held regular shareholders' meetings on May 28, 2025 and June 7, 2024, and the resolutions were passed respectively to approve the 2024 and 2023 annual earnings distribution proposals as shown below:

For the years ended December 31

$1,903,838 $1,370,408

a. Detail of customer contracts

1) Packaging and testing

The customer contract signed by the Company includes two performance obligations of packaging and testing services. The customer pays the contract transaction price after obtaining the packaged or tested product. Since the time interval between the transfer of labor services and the customer's payment is less than a year, the significant financial component of the contract transaction price will not be adjusted. The stand-alone selling prices for packaging and testing services are determined using the expected cost plus a margin approach and are used to allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation.

2) Lease and other services

Other service contracts signed by the Company are from the customers contracting the Company to install and test its production equipment and provide product development services, and the transaction price of the services is negotiated in accordance with the contract.

For the years ended December 31

Contract assets
Balance at beginning of the period transfers to accounts receivable ($ 116,871) ($ 38,153)

The Company recognizes loss allowance for contract assets based on lifetime expected credit losses. The average process duration of the packaging and testing service contracts signed by the Company is 20 to 60 days. When determining the possibility of obtaining an unconditional right of payment for contract assets in the future, the policy adopted by the Company refers to the historical experience of the counterparty's relevant contract assets, current market conditions and business outlook, considers the contracts that are still under obligations on the balance sheet date, examines each contract for stagnation, and recognizes the loss allowance for contract assets according to the expected credit losses during the duration. If there is evidence indicating that the performance obligations of the contract have been suspended for a period exceeding the normal manufacturing process and the Company cannot reasonably anticipate the contract resumption time, the Company will recognize the loss allowance at full amount, but will continue to pursuit the stagnation of the contract, and carry out the obligation when the stagnation has been eliminated. If there is evidence that the counterparty has signs of breach of contract or is facing serious debt difficulties where the recoverable amount cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company will directly write off the relevant contract assets and loss allowance, but will continue to pursue for recovery. The amount recovered by the pursuit will be recognized in profit or loss.

c. Financial risk management objectives and policies


The major financial instruments of the Company include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, lease liabilities and borrowings. Among the financial instruments held by the Company, financial risks related to operations include market risk (including exchange rate risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

1) Market Risk

The main financial risks borne by the Company’s operating activities are the exchange rate risk (see 1) below) and the interest rate risk (see 2) below).

(1) Foreign currency risk

The Company is engaged in foreign currency-denominated sales and purchase transactions, thus causing the Company to be exposed to exchange rate risk. The Company regularly evaluates the net risk position of the sales amount and cost amount denominated in non-functional currency, and adjusts the cash holding position of the non-functional currency accordingly to achieve hedging.

For the carrying amounts of monetary assets and liabilities of the Company denominated in non-functional currencies on the balance sheet date, please refer to Note 29.

Sensitivity analysis

The Company is mainly affected by fluctuations in the exchange rates of USD and JPY.

The table below details the sensitivity analysis when the exchange rate of each functional currency (NTD) of each entity against each relevant foreign currency increases/decreases by 1%. 1% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting exchange rate risk within the Company to key management, and also represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible range of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Sensitivity analysis only includes foreign currency monetary items in circulation which is translated at the end of the period with a 1% exchange rate adjustment.

When foreign currency monetary items are net assets, a positive number in the table below means that when the NTD depreciates by 1% relative to each related currency (mainly USD and JPY), the pre-tax net profit or equity will increase by a number of the same amount; when the NTD appreciates by 1% relative to each relevant currency, its impact on pre-tax net profit or equity will be a negative number of the same amount.

The impact of USD The impact of JPY

2025 2024 2025 2024
Gains or (losses) $ 2,643 (i) $ 1,359 (i) ($ 311 )(ii) $ 2 (ii)

(i) Mainly from the Company’s USD-denominated cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and payables that were in circulation on the balance sheet date without cash flow hedging.

The Company’s sensitivity to the USD exchange rate increase in the current period, which was due to the increase in receivables denominated in USD.

(ii) Mainly from the Company’s JPY-denominated cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and payables that were in circulation on the balance sheet date without cash flow hedging.

  • 48 -

The Company’s sensitivity to the JPY exchange rate increased in the current period, which was due to the increase in payables denominated in JPY.

(2) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk exposure is incurred due to the bank deposits, notes receivable, lease liabilities and borrowings within the Company include fixed and floating interest rates.

The carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities of the Company subject to interest rate risk exposure on the balance sheet date are as follows:

December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Fair value interest rate risk
- Financial assets $ 106,464 $ -
- Financial liabilities 192,452 32,932
Cash flow interest rate risk
- Financial assets 387,633 307,346
- Financial liabilities 1,174,120 336,808

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis below is based on the interest rate exposure of non-derivative instruments at the balance sheet date. The analysis for floating rate liabilities assumes that the amounts of the liabilities outstanding at the balance sheet date were all outstanding during the reporting period. The rate of change used in reporting interest rates within the Company to key management is a 1% increase or decrease in interest rates, which represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible range of changes in interest rates.

If interest rates increased/decreased by 1% when all other variables are held constant, the Company’s profit before tax in 2025 and 2024 will increase/decrease by $7,865 thousand and $295 thousand respectively, mainly due to the risk of interest rate changes arising from the interest-bearing bank deposits and bank borrowings at floating rates.

The Company’s sensitivity to interest rates increased in the current period, which is due to the increase in net liabilities with floating interest rates.

2) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that the counterparty defaults on its contractual obligations resulting in financial losses to the Company. As of the balance sheet date, the maximum credit risk exposure of the Company that may result in financial losses due to the counterparty’s failure to perform its obligations is from the carrying amount of financial assets recognized in the balance sheet.

The policy adopted by the Company is to transact with reputable counterparties and to obtain adequate guarantees to mitigate the risk of financial loss due to default when necessary. The Company rates major customers by creating complete customer profiles, using publicly available financial and non-financial information, and referring to past transaction records with the Company. The Company continuously monitors the credit exposure and the credit rating of the

counterparty and controls the credit exposure through the counterparty's credit limit which is reviewed and approved annually by the responsible supervisor.

The Company continuously evaluates the financial status of customers with accounts receivable and contract assets and reviews the recoverable amounts of accounts receivable and contract assets to ensure that unrecoverable accounts receivable and contract assets have been properly set aside for impairment losses. When necessary, receipts in advance will be adopted as a transaction term to reduce credit risk. Thus, the credit risk on accounts receivable and contract assets is expected to be limited.

The credit risk of the Company is concentrated in the top five customers (excluding subsidiaries). As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the ratio for the total amount of accounts receivable and total contract assets came from the top five customers were 73% and 43%, respectively.

3) Liquidity risk

The Company manages and maintains a sufficient position of cash and cash equivalents to support the operations and mitigate the impact of fluctuations in cash flow. The management of the Company supervises the use of the bank's financing amount and ensures compliance with the terms of the borrowing agreement.

Bank borrowings are an important source of liquidity for the Company. Please refer to the description of (2) Financing amount for the unused financing amount of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

(1) Liquidity and Interest Rate Risk for Non-Derivative Financial Liabilities

The analysis of the remaining contractual maturity of non-derivative financial liabilities is based on the earliest date on which the Company may be required to repay, and is prepared based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities (including principal and estimated interest). The maturity analysis of other non-derivative financial liabilities is prepared according to the agreed repayment date.

For interest cash flows paid at floating rates, the undiscounted interest amount is derived based on the average borrowing rate on the balance sheet date.
