Report on Review of Interim Financial Information

(2021)Finance-Audit-Letter No.21000150 To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Elite Semiconductor Microelectronics Technology Inc.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Elite Semiconductor Microelectronics Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries (the“ Group”) as at March 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the three months then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and International Accounting Standard (IAS) No. 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim financial statements based on our reviews and the review reports of other independent accountants.

Scope of Review

Except as explained in the Basis for Qualified Conclusion, we conducted our reviews in accordance with the Statement of Auditing Standards No. 65, “Review of Financial Statements”. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Basis for Qualified Conclusion

As explained in Notes 4(3) and 6(6), the financial statements of certain insignificant consolidated subsidiaries and investments accounted for under the equity method were not reviewed by independent accountants. Those statements reflect total assets of NT$740,792 thousand and NT$687,589 thousand, constituting 5.21% and 5.97% of the consolidated total assets, and total liabilities of NT$95,406 thousand and NT$128,621 thousand, constituting

~3~

1.76% and 3.34% of the consolidated total liabilities as at March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and total comprehensive income of NT$40,897 thousand and NT$(7,245) thousand, constituting 6.43% and (2.15%) of the consolidated total comprehensive income for the three months then ended, respectively.

Qualified Conclusion

Based on our reviews and the review reports of other independent accountants as described in the Other Matter–Review Reports By Other Independent Accountants section of our report, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Conclusion section of our report, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at March 31, 2021 and 2020, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the three months then ended in accordance with the “Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and IAS No. 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed by the FSC.

Price risk

  • I. The Group’s equity securities, which are exposed to price risk, are the held financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Group diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the Group.

  • II. The Group’s investments in equity securities comprise shares and open-end funds issued by the domestic and foreign companies. The prices of equity securities would change due to the change of the future value of investee companies. If the prices of these equity securities had increased/decreased by 10% with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the Three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 would have increased/decreased by $38,775 and $23,821, respectively, as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Other components of equity would have increased/decreased by $5,793 and $7, 672, respectively, as a result of other comprehensive income classified as equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.

Cash flow and fair value Interest rate risk

The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from short-term borrowings and short-term notes and bills payable. Borrowings with floating rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk, but the majority of risk offset by cash and cash equivalents with floating rates. Borrowings with fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The Group doesn’t have significant risk of change of interest rate due to borrowings with floating rates are all shorter than one year.

~44~
  • (b)Credit risk

  • I. Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. The main factor is that counterparties could not repay in full the accounts receivable based on the agreed terms, and the contract cash flows of financial instruments stated at amortized cost and debt instruments at fair value through profit or loss.

  • II. The Group manages their credit risk taking into consideration the entire group’s concern. For banks and financial institutions, only these with high rating are accepted. According to the Group’s credit policy, each local entity in the Group is responsible for managing and analyzing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, considering their financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors. The utilization of credit limits is regularly monitored.

  • III. The Group adopts the assumptions under IFRS 9, the default occurs when the contract payments are past due over 90 days.

  • IV. The Group adopts following assumptions under IFRS 9 to assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition:

    • If the contract payments were past due over 30 days based on the terms, there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition.
  • V. The following indicators are used to determine whether the credit impairment of debt instruments has occurred:

    • (i) It becomes probable that the issuer will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization due to their financial difficulties ;

    • (ii) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;

    • (iii) Default or delinquency in interest or principal repayments;

    • (iv) Adverse changes in national or regional economic conditions that are expected to cause a default.

  • VI. The Group wrote-off the financial assets, which cannot be reasonably expected to be recovered, after initiating recourse procedures. However, the Group will continue executing the recourse procedures to secure their rights.

  • VII. The financial assets at amortized cost including time deposits and restricted time deposits. The banks are with high rating and don ’t past due before. In addition to the above, the whole economic environment doesn’t change significant, so the risk of credit risk is low and the effect to financial statement is insignificant.

~45~
  • VIII. The information about ageing analysis and collaterals of accounts receivable is provide in Note6(4). The Group request significant clients provide collaterals and other right of guarantee, therefore, the Group classifies customer’s accounts receivable in accordance with the nature of collaterals. The applies the simplified approach using loss rate methodology to estimate expected credit loss. In summary, the allowance for losses which the Group should recognize is minor at March 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020.

  • IX. Movements in relation to the Group applying the modified approach to provide loss allowance for accounts receivable is as follows:

  • (c) Liquidity risk

  • I. Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Group and aggregated by Group treasury. Group treasury monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operatio nal needs.

  • II. Surplus cash held by the operating entities over and above balance required for working capital management should invest surplus cash in interest bearing current accounts, time deposits and marketable securities, choosing instruments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient head-room as determined by the above-mentioned forecasts.

  • III. The table below analyses the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities and net-settled or gross-settled derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date for nonderivative financial liabilities and to the expected maturity date for derivative financial liabilities. The amou nts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

(3) Fair value information

  • A. The different levels that the inputs to valuation techniques are used to measure fair value of financial and non-financial instruments have been defined as follows:

  • Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. A market is regarded as active where a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of the Group’s investment in listed stocks, beneficiary certificates and debt securities is included in Level 1.

  • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

  • Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value of the Group’s investment in equity investment without active market is included in Level 3.

  • B. Fair value information of investment property at cost is provided in Note 6(9).

~47~
  • C. Financial instruments not measured at fair value of the Group including cash and cash equivalents, time deposit (over 3 months), notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, guarantee deposits paid, short -term borrowings, short-term notes and bills payable, notes payable, accounts payable and other payables, lease liabilities (current and non-current) and guarantee deposits received are approximate to their fair values.

  • D. The related information of financial and non-financial instruments measured at fair value by level on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the assets and liabilities is as follows:

  • (b) The methods and assumptions the Group used to measure fair value are as follows:

  • I. The instruments the Group used market quoted prices as their fair values (that is, Level 1) are listed below by characteristics:

Market quoted price Listed shares
Open-end fund
Closing price
Net asset value
  • II. Except for financial instruments with active markets, the fair value of other financial instruments is measured by using valuation techniques or by reference to counterparty quotes. The fair value of financial instruments measured by using valuation techniques can be referred to current fair value of instruments with similar terms and characteristics in substance, discounted cash flow method or other valuation methods, including calculated by applying model using market information available at the consolidated balance sheet date.

  • III. The output of valuation model is an estimated value and the valuation technique may not be able to capture all relevant factors of the Group’s financial and non-financial instruments. Therefore, the estimated value derived using valuation model is adjusted accordingly with additional inputs, for example, model risk or liquidity risk and etc. In accordance with the Group’s management policies and relevant control procedures relating to the valuation models used for fair value measurement, management believes adjustment to valuation is necessary in order to reasonably represent the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments at the consolidated balance sheet. The inputs and pricing information used during valuation are carefully assessed and adjusted based on current market conditions.

~49~
  • E. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, there was no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2.

  • F. The following chart is the movement of Level 3 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

  • G. Accounting segment is in charge of valuation procedures for fair value measurements being categorized within Level 3, which is to verify independent fair value of financial instruments. Such assessment is to ensure the valuation results are reasonable by applying independent information to make results close to current market conditions, confirming the resource of information is independent, reliable and in line with other resources and represented as the exercisable price, and frequently calibrating valuation model, performing back-testing, updating inputs used to the valuation model and making any other necessary adjustments to the fair value.

  • H. The following is the qualitative information of significant unobservable inputs and sensitivity analysis of changes in significant unobservable inputs to valuation model used in Level 3 fair value measurement:
