EVA AIRWAYS CORPORATION

BUSINESS REPORT OF THE YEAR 2020

In 2020, the operation of the global aviation industry has encountered severe challenges due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Travel restrictions, border controls and quarantine regulations are implemented around the world, resulting in drastic decline in passenger demand. Cargo was affected by the suspension of a large number of passenger flights, leading to imbalanced supply and demand for cargo capacity and boost in cargo volume and rate. Nevertheless, the increase in cargo revenue still unable to make up for the loss in passenger revenue, making the overall revenue to drop substantially. In 2020, the annual revenue of EVA Airways was NT$79.6 billion, with passenger revenue of NT$24.5 billion, and a record-high cargo revenue of NT$50 billion.

2020 Results

Passenger revenue was NT$24.5 billion, a decrease of NT$76.1 billion compared with 2019 or an annual drop of 76%

The number of passengers in 2020 was 2.33 million people or a decline of 81.8%, giving a passenger load factor of 51.4% and the yield increased by 10.7%. Before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, passenger revenue performed well. In January, passenger revenue increased by 15% YoY. However, as the epidemic spread, countries around the world implemented strict quarantine and border control measures, causing passenger demand to fall sharply and a drastic decline in passenger revenue. During the epidemic prevention period, EVA Airways fully cooperated with the government's epidemic prevention policies, maintaining only the essential routes to fulfill the traveling needs of people returning to/departing from Taiwan. Moreover, EVA Airways also adjusted the in-flight services, implemented safe traveling plan, and promoted automatic flight check-in service to increase the confidence of passengers in taking the flight.

Cargo revenue was NT$50 billion, an increase of NT$24.6 billion compared with 2019 or an annual increase of 97%

The cargo we carried was 700 thousand tons in 2020 an annual increase of 15.3%, the cargo load factor was 87.7% and the yield increased by 74.6%. In response to the imbalance of market supply and demand, in addition to maximize the utilization of air freighters, measures such as fully utilize the belly capacity of passenger aircraft, deploying passenger aircraft on freighter destinations, loading cargo on passenger cabin seats, carrying cargo in the passenger cabin by removing the seats, etc. were implemented to reduce the impact of the epidemic on the overall revenue.

Optimize fleet composition, with a total of 87 aircraft

EVA Airways operated 87 aircraft by the end of 2020, including 82 passenger aircraft and 5 freighters. Two new Boeing 787-10s were delivered throughout the year. In response to COVID-19 impact and market changes, we continued to optimize fleet and flight network, EVA Airways has reached agreement with Boeing to reshuffle seven of the 787-10s yet to be delivered to four 787-9s and three 777 freighters.

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of EVA Airways Corp.:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of EVA Airways 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 then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying 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 consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”), International Accounting Standards (“IASs”), Interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) or the former Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the 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.

    1. Contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue

Please refer to note 4(q) “Revenue recognition”, note 5 “Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty”, and note 6(x) “Revenue from contracts with customers” of the consolidated financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The member who joins the “Infinity MileageLands” (“the Program”) can earn mileage by flying any of the EVA Airways Corp.’ s flights or through other consumption. Contract liabilities will be converted into revenues when the member actually redeems the mileage or it is expected that the right is probable not to be redeemed.

==> picture [595 x 35] intentionally omitted <==

16

==> picture [595 x 81] intentionally omitted <==

The Group maintains information technology systems in order to calculate its mileage redemption revenue. And the Group also uses the systems to estimate the unit fair value of the mileage. Therefore, the cut off test of contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue is one of the key judgmental areas for our audit.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included: testing the design and implementation of the relevant controls over the mileage redemption revenue systems related to the Program; engaging the internal specialist to assess the quantity of the mileage, fair value of the redemption of the Program and the historical redemption probability of the Program to examine the unit fair value of the mileage for verifying the accuracy of recognition of the contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue.

  1. Impairment of long-term non-financial assets

Please refer to note 4(n) “Impairment of non-financial assets ”, note 5 “Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty”, and note 6(k) “Property, plant and equipment” of the consolidated financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The Group periodically assesses for any indication of impairment on its long-term non-financial assets. If any indication thereof exists with long-term non-financial assets, the Group should estimate the recoverable amount for the assets’ cash-generating unit. The calculation for the assets’ cash-generating unit involved several assumptions and estimations made by the management. Therefore, the impairment test of long-term non-financial assets is one of the key judgmental areas for our audit.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included: Assessing the method used in measuring the recoverable amount, which is provided by the management of the Group, including evaluating the appropriateness of assumption and estimation on major parameters, such as the forecast of cash flow and discount rate; comparing with the historical accuracy of judgments, including inspecting the amount of forecast of cash flow in prior year and with reference to actual cash flow to evaluate the appropriateness of the assumptions, as well as performing the sensitivity analysis on major assumption.

Other Matter

EVA Airways Corp. has prepared its parent-company-only financial statements as of and for the years 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 the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the IFRSs, IASs, IFRIC, 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 consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

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

Those charged with governance (including the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

17

==> picture [595 x 81] intentionally omitted <==

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 misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  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, 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 the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group 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.

18

==> picture [595 x 81] intentionally omitted <==

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 Chia-Chien Tang and Yen-Ta Su.

The Company maintains information technology systems in order to calculate its mileage redemption revenue. And the Company also uses the systems to estimate the unit fair value of the mileage. Therefore, the cut off test of contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue is one of the key judgmental areas for our audit.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included: testing the design and implementation of the relevant controls over the mileage redemption revenue systems related to the Program; engaging the internal specialist to assess the quantity of the mileage, fair value of the redemption of the Program and the historical redemption probability of the Program to examine the unit fair value of the mileage for verifying the accuracy of recognition of the contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue.

  1. Impairment of long-term non-financial assets

Please refer to note 4(n) �Impairment of non-financial assets �, note 5 �Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty�, and note 6(j) �Property, plant and equipment� of the financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The Company periodically assesses for any indication of impairment on its long-term non-financial assets. If any indication thereof exists with long-term non-financial assets, the Company should estimate the recoverable amount for the assets� cash-generating unit. The calculation for the assets� cash-generating unit involved several assumptions and estimations made by the management. Therefore, the impairment test of long-term non-financial assets is one of the key judgmental areas for our audit.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included: Assessing the method used in measuring the recoverable amount, which is provided by the management of the Company, including evaluating the appropriateness of assumption and estimation on major parameters, such as the forecast of cash flow and discount rate; comparing with the historical accuracy of judgments, including inspecting the amount of forecast of cash flow in prior year and with reference to actual cash flow to evaluate the appropriateness of the assumptions, as well as performing the sensitivity analysis on major assumption.

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 the 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.

26

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 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 financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  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 in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company�s internal control.

  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 investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method 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 of the Company.

27

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

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

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements 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 Chia-Chien Tang and Yen-Ta Su.
