I. Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

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

1

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.

Research and Development

  1. In response to the trend of mobile technologies and to meet the diverse needs of passengers, EVA Airways has completed the renovation of our official website. We created an optimal cross-device visual interface for our passengers to enjoy their traveling experience at every moment of their journey with these delicate and welldesigned digital services.

  2. To comply with the New Distribution Capability (NDC) standard promoted by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) in recent years, EVA Airways has established the NDC function that integrates with the passenger reservation system to provide customers with instant and diversified high-quality products and services.

  3. Since the cross-industry cooperation partners of the Infinity MileageLands of EVA Airways continue to increase, including hotel/car rental, banking and insurance businesses, to speed up the preparation time for the cooperation between the parties involved and shorten the development time for adjusting the program of each new cooperation project, a cross-industry cooperation platform module was constructed in 2020 to set business rules based on the Rule Engine approach. Once the platform module is online, cooperation between the two parties can be carried out.

  4. EVA Airways has improved its capability of information security governance and cyber defense conducted in 2020. Focused on reinforce security control mechanism and the protection of payment card transaction-related applications and the

3

cardholder data. Meanwhile, the company has enhanced the resilient information security practice, to aim precisely prevent and predict, immediately detect, and quickly respond to a security incident before, during, and after the incident.

  1. In response to the growth of e-commerce and mail order demand and to get a hold on the real-time air freight rates as well as the changes in mail volume, EVA Airways has completed the development of the freight and mailbag rate management system, which can flexibly and efficiently adjust the flight cabin and airmail rates, improving management efficiency to maximize the profit.

  2. In response to the development trend of mobile technologies and to meet the diverse needs of air freight forwarders, EVA Airways has completed the revision of its website for freight services, which is designed based on user experience. The website incorporated traffic data analysis and utilized customer experience to create an optimized cross-device visual interface, providing air freight forwarders instant, convenient and comprehensive digital services.

  3. To effectively predict the in-flight fuel, formulate fuel strategy, monitor changes in aircraft performance, analyze the best route, improve crew training, and gain insight into flight safety factors, the QAR datalake and the QAR big data analysis platform were completed in this project.

Operational Adjustments In Response To The COVID-19 Pandemic

According to the forecast issued by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) in April 2021, owing to the increase of vaccination in developed countries and the popularization of virus test, economic recovery in scale is expected in the second half of 2021 to boost the demand back to the level in 2019, 34%. However, since the trend of demand in 2021 is exactly the opposite of that in 2020, the demand in the beginning of 2020 was strong, followed by a weak demand, whereas the demand in the beginning of 2021 was weak and will start to rise in the second half of the year. It is projected that the international air travel demand in 2021 will maintain at the same level as in 2020.

Passenger Business:

  1. In the first half of 2021, the fleet will be flexibly dispatched and essential flights will be maintained based on the border regulations of various countries and route characteristics. In the second half of 2021, depending on the recovery of business

5

activities, essential routes will be gradually strengthened, and tourism routes will be gradually restored.

  1. Based on the market demand and the source structure passengers, flights will be flexibly adjusted to maintain the structure of flight network, gathering passengers for transportation. During the epidemic, the rates of flight tickets will be flexibly adjusted depending on different sources of direct flight and transfer passengers. Moreover, services will be provided to special passengers such as foreign workers and crews, offering products with rates depending on the market demand.

  2. Continue to observe the development and demand of tourism after the pandemic and organize diversified products such as special chartered flights, blocked extra seats and blocked cabins. Adjust the type of aircraft flexibly according to market trends to expand and meet the needs of different sources of passengers.

Cargo Business:

  1. Maximizing the cargo capacity of passenger aircraft and freighters: Due to the epidemic, passenger flights have been canceled substantially. The freighter fleet and available capacity on passenger aircraft will be fully utilized for cargo delivery.

  2. Optimizing the freighter network to further enhance their efficiency: Adjusting the proportion of long-haul and short-haul freighter routes to optimize the flight network, improving the efficiency of freighters.

  3. The major air freight market will maintain operating by wide-body aircraft: Major air freight market in Southeast Asia, Northeast Asia, Hong Kong, and China will maintain operating wide-body aircraft to increase efficiency.

  4. Seize the business opportunities for charters and blocked capacity: In response to the manufacturers’ project and urgent cargo needs, chartered flights and blocked capacity will be provided.

Future Development Strategies and Important Marketing Policies

  1. Fleet planning: To enhance the service of medium and long-haul flights, we will bring in twenty-one 787s by the end of 2023 after successfully introducing the new generation 787s in 2018. As for the freighters, all five 777 freighters have come into service. To further enhance the competitiveness in cargo service, EVA Airways has reached an agreement with Boeing to reshuffle seven of the 787-10s yet to be delivered to three 777 freighters and four 787-9s. In addition, in response to the development of the epidemic, EVA Airways also re-examined the network and the changes in passenger and cargo demand to optimize the fleet composition. Part of the A321 and A330 fleet will be phased out from 2022. EVA Airways will consider

6

the follow up plan by studying on the occasion to the market demand for sustainability and business strategy at the time.

  1. Maintain regional transportation capacity and bring out the benefits of the hub:

  2. (1) With Taiwan as the hub, adjust the flight network deployment based on the global business activities and the degree of border control. Restore first the flight routes demanded for business activities and family visits to increase the economic benefits of the flight network, providing passengers with convenient and economical flights.

  3. (2) With the recovery of economic activities, the frequency of flights for essential routes will be increased and the capacity of tourist routes will be restored based on the demand to boost regional capacity, and facilitate the transfer of passengers with connected flights. In addition, new flight routes will be opened for markets with potential passenger and cargo development in Southern Europe and Southeast Asia, such as Milan, Penang and the Clark route to increase the competitiveness of the hub.

  4. Adjust the fleet flexibly and optimize the flight route revenue:

  5. (1) With the releasing of vaccines, the market is gradually returning to the right track. To enhance the competitiveness of the flight routes, the 787 fleet will be adjusted to strengthen operation revenue based on the degree of border control in various countries and the delivery schedule of new aircraft. By the end of 2021, two 787 aircraft will be assigned for operation at Songshan Airport to replace the existing two A333 aircraft.

  6. (2) Both the passenger and cargo demand for the European routes are equally important. The 777 or 787 aircraft with better benefits will be dispatched flexibly to enhance the efficiency of the flight routes.

  7. Design products with additional services to enhance the ticket-purchase experience: Design products with diversified services to meet various traveling needs of passengers. Provide accurate services to customers by using the intelligent networking system, improving the ticket-purchase experience, strengthening passenger adhesion, and achieving the goal of one-stop service.

  8. Utilize artificial intelligence and biometric technology to improve automated services:

  9. (1) The use of technological systems to optimize the processes of various services is the future trend. EVA Airways is currently participating in the U.S. Biometric Exit Program, taking the lead in providing facial recognition for boarding services at San Francisco Airport, which in turn reduces personnel contact,

7

simplifies boarding operations, and ensures the health and safety of passengers.

  • (2) With the help of biometric technology from alliance partners, “touchless” customs clearance and boarding operations were developed. With the establishment of various airport facilities, the development of automated services is accelerated. Biometric technology can be applied to seat reservation, luggage check-in, customs clearance and lounge access, etc., providing passengers with a safe and convenient flight experience.

  • Strengthen the cooperation with alliance partners: Through Star Alliance network, mileage reward program, ticket products and global corporate account sales mechanism, more premium customers will be attracted to EVA Airways. Moreover, through joint procurement, practice exchange system co-development and resource sharing with member airlines, operating costs can be reduced, and efficiency can be improved.

  • EVA Air currently has code-sharing agreements with 20 airlines, including Air Canada, Air China, Air India, Air New Zealand, All Nippon Airways, Asiana Airlines, Avianca, Bangkok Airways, Copa Airlines, Hainan Airlines, Hong Kong Airlines, Juneyao Airlines, Shandong Airlines, Shenzhen Airlines, Singapore Airlines, Thai Airways, Turkish Airlines, UNI Air, United Airlines and Air China Cargo. 13 of these airlines are members of Star Alliance, and one is the connecting partner of Star Alliance.

  • Expand cold storage facility and actively participate in the vaccine-related delivery. In response to the launch of vaccines, EVA Airways collaborated with professional temperature-controlled manufacturers to provide shippers the required delivery, with a temperature-controlled range to reach as low as -80℃. Vaccine-related manufacturers can utilize the cold storage facility and the flights of EVA Airways to transport their products to places around the world.

  • Actively gathered cargos from diversified sources: Besides focusing on major air cargos such as mobile devices and e-commerce products, EVA Airways will strengthen the development of cold chain goods such as food ingredients and precision electronic components, as well as mobile networks, automation, AI (artificial intelligence), epidemic prevention materials, and electronic network & communication products, etc.

  • Continue to promote electronic cargo services: To comply with IATA’s initiative in the use of electronic air waybill (e-AWB), as of the end of 2020, the penetration of e-AWB for EVA Airways has reached 75.6%. In the future, EVA Airways will continue to expand the scope of the electronic cargo services.

Impact of External Competition, Legal Issues and Overall Operating Environment

External Competition

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the global economy, aviation industry and tourism industry were severely hit. According to the latest data from IATA, the aviation industry lost approximately US$126.4 billion in 2020, and the overall demand declined by 66% compared with that in 2019. In just a few months during the epidemic, 21 years of growth in the aviation industry have been wiped out, slamming directly the passenger volume down to the level of 1999. More than 40 airlines have completely stopped or suspended their operations. After the pandemic, the global aviation market will be reshuffled.

Legal Environment

  1. The political and economic situation as well as the policy stability will directly affect the rise and fall of the passenger and cargo market for the aviation industry.

  2. The revision of relevant regulations for flight crews and the harmony of the employer-employee relations will have a direct impact on the operation and the operating costs of the aviation industry. For example, since January 1, 2021, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) requires crew members after long-haul flights or from other countries to complete a 7-day home quarantine when entering Taiwan and have negative result for the COVID-19 PCR test before they can enter the community, and from the 8th to the 14th day, they shall follow the enhanced version of the self-health management practice. Such regulation seriously affected the scheduling of airline crews and flight planning, making the aviation market even worse.

Overall Operating Environment

  1. In 2020, the global economy was affected by strict control measures, such as city lockdown, border control and restriction of personal activities, implemented by various countries to prevent the spread of the epidemic. With the releasing of vaccines and the resume of economic activities in various countries, most international institutions predict that the global economy will gradually recover in 2021, and economic growth will be better than that in 2020. Domestic institutions estimate that Taiwan’s economic growth in 2021 will outperform that before the epidemic, expecting to bring positive effect for the aviation industry in terms of import and export.

9

  1. With the dual effects of extended travel restrictions and economic shrinkage in certain countries, the impact of the epidemic on the world continues to grow. If the border controls for some countries are eased in 2021, IATA predicts that the total number of passengers will increase compared with 2020, rising from 0.6 billion to 2.4 billion people, while the passenger revenue is expected to reach about US$231 billion. Although improvement compared with 2020 can be expected, the road to recovery is long and difficult. It is projected that the number of passengers will reach the level of 2019 in 2024 at the earliest. Due to the slow recovery of the belly compartment capacity of passenger planes, the transportation capacity continues to be limited. With the increasing demand of vaccine delivery, cargo market will continue to show strong performance. It is expected that the cargo volume will increase to 63.1 million tons, which will boost the cargo revenue in 2021 to a record high of US$152 billion.

Facing with such difficult operation challenges, all employees of EVA Airways have not only implemented the required epidemic-prevention policies, but also adopted various contingency measures based on changes in the passenger and cargo markets to reduce the substantial impact bring about by the epidemic. In the future, EVA Airways will continue to pay close attention to market changes, strengthen operational management, strive for cost-effectiveness, and stabilize financial conditions to prepare for the recovery of the market in the post-pandemic era.

restrictions of each flight information region (FIR) to improve flight efficiency.
2. Optimize the alternate selection at planning.
3.The cargo loading iscarefully planned to optimize the aircraft's center of gravity
and improve fuel efficiency.
4.Continue to refine the fuel policy and the flight plan fuel calculationbased on the
flight big data analysis results.
5.Promote the use of tow truck (or tug) power and groundsupporting equipment
power as well as pre-conditioned airequipment to replace the use of APU
(auxiliary power unit) when performing ground operations at each stations.
6.Under safe conditions and the permission of air traffic control (ATC), encourage
flight crews to perform continuous descent operation in which is a practice to let

EVA Airways Corporation Internal Control System Statement

Date: March 22, 2021 Based on the findings of a self-assessment, EVA Airways Corporation (EVA) states the following with regard to its internal control system during the year 2020:

  1. EVA’s Board of Directors and management are responsible for establishing, implementing, and maintaining an adequate internal control system. Our internal control is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance over effectiveness and efficiency of our operations (including profit, performance, and safeguard of asset security), reliability, timeliness, transparency, and regulatory compliance of our reporting, and compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and bylaw.

  2. An internal control system has inherent limitations. No matter how perfectly designed, an effective internal control system can provide only reasonable assurance of accomplishing its stated objectives. Moreover, the effectiveness of an internal control system may be subject to changes due to extenuating circumstances beyond our control. Nevertheless, our internal control system contains self-monitoring mechanisms, and EVA takes immediate remedial actions in response to any identified deficiencies.

  3. EVA evaluates the design and operating effectiveness of its internal control system based on the criteria provided in the Regulations Governing the Establishment of Internal Control Systems by Public Companies (herein below, the Regulations). The criteria adopted by the Regulations identify five constituent elements of managerial internal control: (1) control environment, (2) risk assessment, (3) control activities, (4) information and communication, and (5) monitoring activities. Each element contains detailed items. Aforementioned items please refer to the Regulations.

  4. EVA has evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of its internal control system according to the aforesaid Regulations.

  5. Based on the findings of such evaluation, EVA believes that, on December 31, 2020, it has maintained, in all material respects, an effective internal control system (that includes the supervision and management of our subsidiaries), to provide reasonable assurance over our operational effectiveness and efficiency, reliability, timeliness, transparency and regulatory compliance of reporting, and compliance with applicable laws, regulations and bylaw.

  6. This statement is an integral part of EVA’s annual report for the year 2018 and prospectus, and will be made public. Any falsehood, concealment, or other illegality in the content made public will entail legal liability under Articles 20, 32, 171, and 174 of the Securities and Exchange Act.

  7. This statement was passed by the Board of Directors in their meeting held on March 22, 2021, with none of the nine attending directors expressing dissenting opinions, and the remainder all affirming the content of this Statement.

  • Sky shop services: in-flight duty free sales.

  • Maintenance services: maintenance, manufacture and sales of aircraft, engine and parts.

  • Training services: pilot training.

119

  • D. New services planned to be developed

  • (1) Improved ticket cancellation/change functions on official website.

  • (A) The Amadeus Digital API (ATC refund) for ticket cancellation online can automatically calculate the refund value and display it on the refund page. This allows passengers to decide whether to continue with their ticket cancellation, reduces the labor cost of having ticketing agents manually calculate the refund value, and increases customer satisfaction.

  • (B) The Dynamic Waiver function introduced on the official website for ticket changes allows passengers to change their flight number/date according to the situation (such as typhoon) without charges before their flight departs. This eliminates the labor cost of front-line staff manually making changes to the tickets, and increases customer satisfaction.

  • (2) EVA Mobile App personalized itinerary management optimization improves user satisfaction. The homepage automatically displays the itinerary or boarding pass within 2 days, which reduces the inconvenience of repeated login to check reservation record (PNR).

  • (3) Official website/mobile APP “New Check-in Reservation Function”

  • At present, online check-in and mobile check-in are available 48 hours before flight departure. Passengers who have already purchased their tickets will be able to make advance reservation to check-in, which gives passengers more flexibility in their check-in time. The system will then automatically send the passengers their boarding pass.

  • (4) Baggage Reporting System

  • Passengers who have left the airport can report online if their checked luggage is damaged or lost, and airport operators will contact the passengers. This will save passengers time spent on trying to locate the airport phone number or contacting the airline.

  • (5) Star Alliance develops “Digital Service Platform” and launches “Travel Information Hub”

The information sharing on the Star Alliance “Digital Service Platform” allows passengers to enjoy seamless services when taking cross-airline flights. The Company has launched services such as baggage tracking, free inter-airline seat selection and membership card number verification. Other functions such as digital assistance for flight transfer, flight abnormality notification, paid inter-airline seat selection, additional services and dynamic use of mileage are also being assessed. In response to the pandemic, Star Alliance has launched the “Travel Information Hub” to allow travelers to easily enquire the health and hygiene safety measures of member

120

airlines and information about epidemic prevention at major airports in the Star Alliance flight network.

  • (6) Additional services expected to be launched

  • In order to increase the Company’s additional revenue, strengthen the richness of the global information website, and provide passengers with the convenient experience of one-stop shopping, the Company is planning to follow the practices of other airlines in the industry to provide additional travel insurance services during the ticket purchase process.

  • (7) New meal selection service on official website/mobile APP

  • (A) In order to enhance the meal service of Premium Economy Class, the “Premium Economy Class Online Meal Selection Service” has been added to the official website/mobile APP.

  • (B) In order to provide passengers with diversified options and increase the Company’s ancillary revenue, it is planning to launch the “Prepaid Premium Meal” service in the itinerary management function on its official website and mobile APP.

  • (8) Expanding air cargo business opportunities in the cold chain market

  • The Company’s cold chain freight services (EVA Pharmacare) covers the major import and export regions of temperature control products in Europe, Asia and the Americas. It specializes in the delivery of seasonal influenza vaccines, biotech medical drugs, high-end ingredient and related products that require special and precise temperature control. In 2020, the demand for cold chain products continued to grow, and the cargo volume increased by 15% compared with 2019. In the future, global cold chain products will continue to be a potential market for air cargo, and the scope of product sales will continue to expand. The Company has earned certification from the Center of Excellence for Independent Validators (CEIV) Pharma certification of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) in March 2021, and will further provide instant and reliable temperature-controlled freight services that are committed to customer safety. In order to meet the needs of vaccine delivery, EVA Air has cooperated with professional temperature-controlled cabinet manufacturers to provide customers with various low-temperature cargo delivery solutions that meet the service requirements of safe delivery.

5.1.2 Industry Overview

A. Current status and development of the industry

The severe COVID-19 pandemic crisis has deeply impacted the aviation industry. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) estimates that with the reopening of borders and related testing requirement, and the raise in vaccination rates, aviation industry performance in 2021 will improve compared with the performance in 2020.

121

Although loss will continue, the financial structure of airlines will improve significantly. When some borders reopen in 2021, total revenue will increase by 23%, from US$372 billion to US$458 billion. Compared with the previous year, revenue passenger kilometers (RPK) will grow by 26%, increasing from 1.8 billion persons in 2020 to 2.4 billion persons in 2021.

Compared with the economic downturn as a result of the pandemic in 2020, the outlook for 2021 is slightly optimistic. GDP is expected to grow by 4.9%, which is a reversal of the -4.2% in 2020. Global trade growth is estimated to rebound from -9.2% in 2020 to 7.2%. Although aviation industry performance in 2021 will be better than in 2020, the path to recovery will be slow and weak. It is estimated that passenger traffic will not return to the level of 2019 until 2024 at the earliest. The global aviation industry is expected to lose about US$47.7 billion in 2021, which is a significant decrease of US$78.7 billion compared with the hit bottom loss of US$126.4 billion in 2020. In the long run, IATA believes that the progress made as a result of the vaccines is encouraging. The public has not lost their willingness to travel. Even small-scale de-quarantine measures will bring about a rapid and strong market response.

In 2020, the global air cargo capacity was significantly reduced due to the sharp reduction in passenger flights. However, after airlines began using passenger planes for cargo transportation to maintain their operations, cargo capacity has rebounded. According to IATA data, the largest single-month reduction in capacity in 2020 was 40.9% in April. By December, reduction has decreased to 20.6%, and as of December, the cumulative annual reduction in capacity was 24.1%. In terms of cargo volume, it decreased significantly in the second quarter of the early stage of the pandemic, but the degree of impact declined with each month. As of December, the cumulative annual volume decrease was 11.8%. On the whole, freight market supply and demand changed significantly in 2020. The decline in supply was greater than the decline in demand, which pushed up freight rates.

Regarding the outlook for cargo market supply and demand in 2021, IATA estimates that the transportation volume in 2021 will return to the level of 2019. In terms of cargo capacity, before passenger market recovers significantly and passenger aircraft belly hold increases substantially, hold supply from Asia to Europe and the United States will remain inadequate for meeting demand, and freight rates are expected to remain on the relatively high end.

B. Relevance of the Upstream, Midstream and Downstream Industry

The major services provided by the air transport service industry are mainly passenger and cargo transportation, which rely on the support of, and cooperation between, the upstream, midstream, and downstream industries to realize the provision of complete, integrated services and to satisfy customers’ needs. The correlations among the up-, mid-, and down-stream industries of EVA Air are shown below:

Upstream Industries:

Aircraft Manufacturing Industry and Refitting Factories: EVA Air purchases its fleets from internationally renowned commercial aircraft manufacturers, including Boeing in the United States and Airbus in France.

Aircraft Engine Manufacturing Industry: Aircraft engines are critically important aircraft components, which affect the flight range and flight efficiency. Currently, the world’s major aircraft engine manufacturers are GE, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce, and so on. The aviation transport operators select their engine suppliers mainly according to factors such as aircraft model requirements, maintenance costs, standardization of maintenance operation and maintenance technology availability.

Ground Handling Equipment Manufacturing Industry: Tractors and related equipment required for the apron operation are all classified as ground handling equipment.

Aircraft Lease Industry: Arrangement of aircraft procurement and leasing is in accordance with our financial planning. Aircraft lease operators are upstream industry of the aviation transport industry.

123

Midstream Industries:

Petroleum Industry: Aircraft fuel accounts for quite a large proportion of the operating costs of airlines, and the international oil price is easily affected by the international situation, policies of oil producers, exchange rate fluctuations, etc., which make the control of fuel cost more difficult. To stabilize fuel costs, besides signing long-term contracts with major fuel suppliers throughout the world for greater discounts, EVA Air also utilizes futures as an instrument for hedging.

Aircraft Maintenance Industry: Aircraft’s periodic/non-periodic (emergency or special condition) checks, maintenance and repairs are inextricably associated with flight quality and safety. In its initial launch, EVA Air has already heavily invested in building a modern jumbo wide-body aircraft maintenance center, followed by establishing Evergreen Aviation Technologies Corp., which has already acquired numerous maintenance accreditations from 14 countries, including those of FAA, EASA and ISO-AS9100 QA. Besides, the alliance cooperation with GE is beneficial to build the capability and higher level technology for aircraft maintenance and engine overhaul, which can provide a greater guarantee for the flight safety of EVA Air.

Sky Catering Industry: In-flight meal services are a crucial aspect affecting aviation service quality. To ensure the quality of the in-flight foods, EVA Air commissions its consolidated subsidiary Evergreen Sky Catering Corp. to manage the catering operation (self-run) for the Taipei Station. As for other stations, EVA Air prudently selects qualified local sky catering suppliers to provide in-flight foods.

Ground Service Industry: The ground services at airports include flight check-in, the apron operation for guiding aircraft in and out of the airport, baggage, cargo, mail services, building-up freight into containers and onto pallets, as well as aircraft loading and unloading operations. Currently, for domestic stations in Taiwan, EVA Air mostly commissions its subsidiary Evergreen Airline Services Corp. (EGAS) for the ground handling services to ensure the operation quality. As for foreign stations, EVA Air consigns varying ground handling services to its international industry partners or foreign airports’ professional ground agencies.

Passenger/Cargo Transport Industry: Taking quality into account, EVA Air commissions Evergreen International Storage & Transport Corp. to handle the shuttle transport operation for its crew members to commute between our office and airport.

Downstream Industries:

General public: Due to the development of the economy and trade as well as the increase in personal income, the opportunity for the general public to go abroad for business or sightseeing has greatly increased, and with the convenience of the Internet, the general public comprises direct customers that EVA Air actively strives to serve.

124

Travel agencies: EVA Air continues to work with travel agencies for co-marketing, promotes and popularizes products through travel agencies to the general public and companies. Charter flights are formed according to market demand.

Air forwarder industry: The scope of the business includes import freight transport, export freight transport, transit freight transport, air container inland transport and customs declaration business, which is the transshipment operator of air cargo on the land side. Recently EVA Air has also directly undertaken chartered transport services of international exhibition goods, which not only benefits revenue growth, but also enhances international popularity and market competitiveness.

Courier industry: Mutual combination of courier service companies and air transportation services can provide more convenient services.

C. Development trends of products

(1) Development of global alliance

Due to the constraint of air traffic right and market scale, also to share the resources and reduce operational costs, airlines usually join strategic alliance to increase the overall competitiveness and to expand the code-shared network by code-sharing or frequent flyer plan. Currently, we have code-shared alliance with 20 airlines including United Airlines, All Nippon Airways, Air Canada, Air China, Asiana Airlines and Singapore Airlines. We will continue to seek the opportunities to cooperate with Star Alliance member airlines in the future.

Three major global alliances in airline industry already consists two-thirds of total available seat kilometers (ASK).

(2) Open sky policy of airline industry

As countries gradually exempt visas for foreigners and increase interactions between cities, open sky policy is the long-term trend of the international airline market. So far, the United States has carried out the open sky policy thoroughly while there still have a certain control to ensure a free competition market and protect consumer’s interests. Due to the spillover effect of U.S. policy and effects from cross demand, EU and other countries tend to follow this trend. At present, Taiwan sky is not fully open, but will gradually alleviate the operators’ restrictions along with the global trend. In recent years, budget and foreign airlines continue to expand capacity to Taiwan market. It becomes evident that competition intensifies while airline market tends to be free and open.

(3) Automated non-contact services to reduce contact during air travel.

With the spread of the severe COVID-19 pandemic, border controls in various countries have stagnated travel demand. The International Air Transport Association (IATA), the Airports Council International (ACI) and three major aviation alliances have called for rapid screening to replace quarantine, reconstructing airport quarantine procedures, allowing exemptions from existing quarantine control, and relaxing border control measures to restore passenger confidence in air travel. Contactless air travel needs improvement, including the application of digital services while check-in, border control, boarding and inspection. IATA has also released the key design elements of the IATA Travel Pass to provide information on the virus testing regulations of different governments and vaccine-related information. In the future, it can be integrated with contactless travel applications to improve convenience and biosecurity.

126

(4) Diversified air cargo structure

The composition of air cargo sources is diversified. In addition to consumer electronics, machinery, equipment, apparels, footwear and raw materials, the prosperity of e- commerce has also driven the growth of cargo volume. In addition, biotech products that are small in size but high in value, and time-sensitive goods with high yield are also important cargo sources for air freight.

D. Product competition situation

According to statistics of CAA, the Company is on the top of the list among international airlines by passenger loading factor and gradually increasing the market share. Please refer to the Statistics of Passenger and Cargo Volume of International Airlines in Taiwan.

In response to the Civil Aeronautics Administration’s special international flight policies for same airport arrival and departure and airports on Taiwan’s main island during the pandemic, a total of 38 flights were flown. EVA Air will continue to promote and actively contact tourism bureaus of various countries to collaborate on launching this special flight program between August 2020 and January 2021. In addition, in response to changes in the air travel needs of passengers due to the pandemic, blocked extra seats, blocked zones, blocked cabins and charters services are provided to give business owners

133

and travelers independent and private spaces during their flight and safer options for flying.

  • (8) Simplify the service process, reduce contact and use disposable inflight service items

Simplify meal service throughout the cabin, reduce the supply of special meals, do not actively provide hot and cold drinks, pillows or blankets, and cancel the provision of towelettes, tablecloths, newspapers and magazines, wine list, rice crackers and prelanding sweets in order to reduce contact. Use disposable products for earphones, head cushions, napkins and other in-flight items.

(9) Flexibly adjust cargo operation routes

Flexibly adjust cargo operation destination, flight frequency and aircraft types according to changes in the pandemic situation and market demand. In addition, increase and decrease shifts to fully utilize fleet capacity and improve overall operational efficiency.

  • (10) Improve freight capacity and focus on Company revenue

Use passenger aircraft resources to implement various freight transportation capacity improvement plans, strive for freight revenue, and focus on the Company’s revenue.

  • (11) Enhance the use of e-commerce in cargo transportation in response to the trend of digital development

EVA Air developed a new web core system for freight, introducing new internet technology, collecting demand and consolidating development by phase. By introducing newly developed tools and functions, we are able to consolidate and optimize the framework, and to accelerate the process of operation, providing customers with better service.

B. Long-term plan

(1)Adjust fleet size properly

In response to the severe COVID-19 pandemic, the global air passenger and cargo market demand has undergone drastic changes. In 2020, an agreement was reached with Boeing to postpone the delivery of an entire fleet of new 787-10 aircraft. In addition, of the undelivered 787-10 aircraft, adjustments were made to deliver four 787-9 passenger planes and three 777F cargo planes instead.

(2)Guarantee flight safety

EVA Air is dedicated to improving flight safety. The Company invests a considerable

134

amount to acquire resources including equipment and safety classes to train our staffs and make sure the quality of flight safety.

  • (3)Reduce energy consumption and carbon footprints

Implement Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) recognized by the ICAO. Follow the sustainability project of the IATA; implement solutions such as waste reduction, recycling, carbon offsetting, resource conservation, etc.

C. Market supply & demand and growth in the future

Since the outbreak of the severe COVID-19, various countries have resorted to exit control measures, leading to a cliff-like decline in demand for passenger transport. Fortunately, the advent of vaccines is the light at the end of the pandemic tunnel. As vaccination is being successfully implemented in various countries, the air passenger transport market is expected to gradually recover. The expected flight resumption for the Company’s main operating routes are explained as follows:

136

(1) Passenger Routes

Due to the impact of the pandemic, passenger flights in the first and second quarters were mainly planned according to cargo demand in order to retain basic services in regional skeleton flight and maintain the hub of air network structures. It is estimated that as vaccines in various countries are being successively put into use, resumption in the third and fourth quarters will be flexibly adjusted according to the quarantine regulations of each country and market demand. Flight capacity will be carefully planned and gradually restored to grasp business opportunities from post pandemic rebound.

(2) Air cargo Routes

The North American Routes are the Company’s main source of cargo revenues, accounting for 63%. Freighter revenue accounted for 75%. Freighters offer 16 flights per week to 4 destinations in Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas and Atlanta in the United States while wide-bodied passenger aircraft provide cargo services with belly hold to 8 destinations in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, New York, Houston, Chicago, Vancouver and Toronto.

D. Competitive Niche

(1) Excellent flight safety record

Since the inauguration of its maiden flight, the Company has adhered to Evergreen Group’s decades of experience in international transport, and has provided passengers with most appropriate and comfortable transport services with the business philosophy of flight safety and convenience, etc. “Flight Safety” is our promise to customers and the most important target and responsibility for our staff to accomplish. To achieve the business objectives of “Safe, Punctual Flights, Friendly, Professional Services, and Efficient, Innovative Operations”, we committed to establishing the flight safety standard operating procedures, implementing the work discipline, strengthening the organizational functions, and shaping the safety awareness to build the high-quality safety culture. It also ensures the safety of passengers and aircraft by performing the organizational functions and implementing the safety management system.

By adhering to the philosophy of “we aim to assure your safety whenever you are airborne” and “we never compromise safety in the air or on the ground”, EVA Air is ranked among the best by local and overseas civil aviation authorities and external certification companies in flight safety inspection with a perfect flight safety record and has created a

137

number of perfect records of “Zero Defect”. With excellent flight safety performance, EVA Air has ranked among one of the “World’s Safest Airlines” by German civil aviation magazine, AERO International, for consecutive years. In accordance with the latest airline safety ratings published by the world-renowned professional aviation rating website AirlineRatings.com, EVA Air has been selected as one “The World’s 20 Safest Airlines” for 8 consecutive years and was awarded the third place. At the same time, EVA Air has also earned the 6th position among the World top-20 airlines 2021.

EVA Air’s commitment to flight safety never change, and will set higher standards for itself in order to provide its passengers with peaceful and comfortable flight services.

  • (2) Balanced development of passenger and cargo in response to market changes

Due to the impact of the pandemic, passenger flights in the first and second quarters were mainly planned according to cargo demand in order to retain basic services in regional backbone routes and maintain the hub of air network structures. It is estimated that as vaccines in various countries are being successively put into use, resumption in the third and fourth quarters will be flexibly adjusted according to the quarantine regulations of each country and market demand. Flight capacity will be carefully planned and gradually restored to grasp business opportunities from post pandemic rebound.

  • (3) The layout of the original aviation network is complete, which will help the market recover in the post-epidemic era

The Company’s original flight destinations cover more than 60 cities across the four continents of Europe, the United States, Asia and Australia to form a complete passenger and cargo flight network. As a result of the pandemic, flights have been significantly reduced to only skeleton flights. However, relying on the resources of the original destinations, by gradually resuming flights after the pandemic, the Company will provide dense air network services to quickly restore market competitiveness and meet consumer needs.

(4) The new generation of a brand new fleet

The new generation of the main aircraft model - 787 Dreamliner of EVA Air has been delivered in the second half of 2018 and has delivered 10 by the end of 2020. 787 passenger planes adopt the world's top aerospace science and technology, and are equipped with the latest generation of GEnx engines. Compared with the old type widebody aircraft, 20% of fuel consumption and pollution emissions are saved through the extensive use of lightweight composite materials and the latest technology. Thus, the

138

operating efficiency is improved effectively. The brand new cabin design also greatly improves the comfort of passengers.

The main aircraft type in the Company’s freighter fleet is the Boeing 777F freighter. It has a maximum cargo load of 102 metric tons and is equipped with GE90-115B engines from the GE Aviation Group, which are the same engines as the Company’s 777-300ER passenger aircraft. In addition to reducing maintenance costs, the 777F freighter also has excellent environmental protection and energy saving performance. Compared with the previous generation Boeing 747-400 freighter, it can reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions by about 25%. The Company will introduce 3 more 777F freighter in 2021 to increase the size of the fleet to 8 aircraft, thereby effectively increasing cargo capacity.

  • E. Favorable & Unfavorable Factors in Prospects and Countermeasures

  • Favorable Factors

  • (1) Infrastructures such as global airport terminal equipment, runway capacity, departure time slots and airspace usage for various countries are unable to meet the development speed of the aviation industry. However, the impact of the pandemic has alleviated this saturation problem, making it a conducive time to re-plan post pandemic air network.

  • (2) The International Air Transport Association (IATA) estimates that in 2021, cargo volume will return to the level of 2019. Before the passenger transportation market recovers significantly and the belly hold of passenger aircraft increases significantly, the hold supply from Asia to Europe and the United States is still inadequate for coping with demand, and freight rates are expected to remain on the high end.

  • (3) With the impact of global industrial chain migration, some product production lines have moved back to Taiwan, which helps activate Taiwan's air export.

  • (4) Due to the impact of the pandemic, stay-at-home economy has become more vigorous, leading to the continuous growth of cross-border e-commerce. In addition to changing the pattern of traditional air cargo market, it has also added to the growth momentum of air freight demand.

  • (5) Air cargo is playing a more active logistics role in global economy and trade. Improvement in cold chain freight efficiency will support the normal delivery of vaccines and medical products.

139

Unfavorable Factors

  • (1) In April 2021, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) pointed out that although the overall aviation industry has reduced operating costs in 2020 as a result of decline in oil prices, its revenue has fallen by 56% and it has incurred a net loss of approximately US$126.4 billion. It is estimated that in 2021, the net loss can be reduced by 62% to US$47.7 billion. However, passenger traffic is not expected to return to the pre-pandemic level of 2019 until 2024.

  • (2) In April 2021, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) pointed out that global economic growth rate for 2021 is expected to be 6%. However, this forecast remains greatly uncertain and will depend on unpredictable public health and economic factors. These factors include the pandemic path, sluggish demand, and the impact of financial market fluctuations on global capital flows. In addition, the ongoing impact of the pandemic, the scale and effectiveness of policies, as well as the allocation of resources and advance in vaccines and drugs are also influencing factors.

  • (3) National restrictions on travel bans and quarantine days for immigration will continue to delay the recovery of the tourism industry.

  • (4) The price of aviation fuel has rebounded after hitting bottom. Coupled with the intensifying impact of abnormal climate, flight operation costs have increased.

  • (5) The pandemic is continuing to impact the global tourism industry. Vaccination takes time, and freight transport is expected to continue to support aviation industry operations for the next 1 to 2 years.

Countermeasures

  • (1) Based on pandemic development and passenger and cargo demand, readjust fleet planning and the layout of the aviation network, and re-examine the post pandemic market to grasp business opportunities from rebound after the pandemic.

  • (2) In response to changes in the air travel needs of passengers due to the pandemic, introduce fare for blocked extra seats, blocked zones, blocked cabins and charters services. Provide diversified pricing to give business owners and travelers independent and private spaces during their flight and safer options for flying.

  • (3) Lead industries to spearhead programs such as flights to nowhere, and subsequently launch a series of festival and corporate charter flights to satisfy travelers' desire to go abroad.

140

  • (4) From time to time, organize captain, flight attendant and in-flight gourmet meal production experience camps to further the Group’s brand image and expand nonindustry revenue through these interactive experience with passengers.

  • (5) Improve airport automation services to reduce contact opportunities and restore passenger confidence in flying.

  • (6) Make preliminary preparations to fulfill the delivery conditions and equipment requirements for cold chain goods such as vaccines and fresh food in order to meet the ever-increasing market demand.

  • (7) Maximize the utilization rate of the 5 freighters and make full use of the resources of passenger flights to carry cargo.

  • (8) Introduce three 777 freighters to further improve cargo capacity.

  • (9) Carefully evaluate the feasibility of changing passenger aircraft to freighters in response to potential market demand.

Note 1: Not applicable due to industry characteristics.

  • Note 2: A company that is listed on the TWSE or traded at the place of business of a securities firm

  • shall include in its analysis, the then current financial data up to and until the quarter immediately preceding the printing date of the annual report’ publication date.

Note 3: The calculations of the above financial ratios utilize the formulas listed below.

  1. Financial structure

  2. (1) Debt-asset ratio = total liabilities / total assets

  3. (2) Ratio of long‐term capital to property, plant and equipment = (total equity + non‐current liabilities) / net worth of property, plant and equipment

  4. Solvency

  5. (1) Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities

  6. (2) Quick ratio = (current assets – inventory – prepaid expenses) / current liabilities

  7. (3) Interest coverage ratio = income before income tax and interest expenses / current interest expenses

  8. Operating ability

  9. (1) Receivables (including accounts receivable and notes receivable arising from business operations) turnover rate = net sales / average receivables (including accounts receivable and notes receivable arising from business operations) for each period

  10. (2) Average collection days for receivables = 365 / receivables turnover rate

  11. (3) Inventory turnover rate = cost of sales / average inventory

  12. (4) Payables (including accounts payable and notes payable arising from business operations) turnover rate = cost of sale / average payables (including accounts payable and notes payable arising from business operations) for each period

  13. (5) Average days of sale = 365 / inventory turnover rate

  14. (6) Property, plant and equipment turnover rate = net sales / average net worth of property, plant and equipment

  15. (7) Total asset turnover rate = net sales / average total assets

  16. Profitability

  17. (1) Return on assets = [net income + interest expenses X (1- tax rate)] / average total assets

  18. (2) Return on equity = net income / average total equity

  19. (3) Profit margin before tax = net income / net sales

  20. (4) Earnings per share = (profit and loss attributable to owners of the parent – dividends on preferred shares) / weighted average number of issued shares (Note 4)

  21. Cash flow

  22. (1) Cash flow ratio = net cash flows from operating activities / current liabilities

  23. (2) Net cash flow adequacy ratio = Net cash flow from operating activities for the most recent five years / (capital expenditures + inventory increase + cash dividend)

  24. (3) Cash Flow Reinvestment Ratio = (net cash flows from operating activities – cash dividends) / (gross property, plant and equipment value + long‐term investments + other non‐current assets

  • working capital) (Note 5)

  • Leverage

  • (1) Operating Leverage = (net operating revenue – variable operating costs and expenses) / operating income (Note 6)

  • (2) Financial Leverage = operating income / (operating income – interest expenses)

  • Note 4: When the above formula for calculation of earnings per share is used during measurement, give special attention to the following matters:

  • Measurement should be based on the weighted average number of common shares, not the number of issued shares at year end.

  • In any case where there is a cash capital increase or treasury stock transaction, the period of time in circulation shall be considered in calculating the weighted average number of shares.

  • In the case of capital increase out of earnings or capital surplus, the calculation of earnings per share for the past fiscal year and the fiscal half-year shall be retrospectively adjusted based on the capital increase ratio, without the need to consider the issuance period for the capital increase.

  • If the preferred shares are non-convertible cumulative preferred shares, the dividend of the current year (whether issued or not) shall be subtracted from the net profit after tax, or added to the net loss after tax. In the case of non-cumulative preferred shares, if there is net profit after tax, dividend on preferred shares shall be subtracted from the net profit after tax; if there is loss, then no adjustment need be made.

  • Note 5: Give special attention to the following matters when carrying out cash flow analysis:

  • Net cash flow from operating activities means net cash in-flows from operating activities listed in the statement of cash flows.

  • Capital expenditures means the amounts of cash out-flows for annual capital investment.

  • Inventory increase will only be entered when the ending balance is larger than the beginning balance. An inventory decrease at year end will be deemed zero for calculation.

  • Cash dividend includes cash dividends from both common shares and preferred shares.

  • Gross property, plant and equipment means the total value of property, plant and equipment prior to the subtraction of accumulated depreciation.

  • Note 6: Issuers shall separate operating costs and operating expenses by their nature into fixed and variable categories. When estimations or subjective judgments are involved, give special attention to their reasonableness and to maintain consistency.

  • Note 7: In the case of a company whose shares have no par value or have a par value other than NT$10, for the calculation of the above-mentioned paid-in capital ratio, the ratio of equity attributable to owners of the parent as stated in the balance sheet shall be substituted.

Analysis of deviation:

  • (1) Current assets and current liabilities:

Due to COVID-19, the passenger demand fall sharply and a drastic decline in passenger revenue. 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. Cash, account receivable and liabilities decrease as well.

  • (2) Retained earnings: Mainly due to the profit losses in 2020 affected by COVID-19.

  • (3) Other equity: Mainly due to the unrealized profits on hedging instruments.

Future response action: The above deviation has no significant impact on the Company and its subsidiaries.

With the increasing regulatory requirements of global aviation authorities, climate change, information security, political influence, the rapid development of emerging technologies, etc., the risks faced by enterprises are accompanied by uncertainties. Furthermore, “emerging risks” are undoubtedly one of the important issues that require airlines to be cautious with the assessment, which needs further identification, analysis, and formulation of response measures in order to respond to new forms of potential risks as soon as possible as well as to reduce the impact on operations. With reference to the “The Global Risks Report” published by the World Economic Forum (WEF) at the beginning of each year, the Corporate Sustainability Committee (CSC) incorporates identified emerging risks into risk management, conducts investigations on risk factors aimed at each department in the first quarter of each year, integrates risk mitigating actions formulated by related departments, and regularly reports the results to the Board of Directors.

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.

KPMG, a Taiwan partnership and a member firm of the KPMG global organization of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Limited, a private English company limited by guarantee.

192

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.

193

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.

194

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.

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

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

(1) Company history

EVA Airways Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated on April 7, 1989, as a corporation limited by shares under special permission of the Republic of China (R.O.C.) Ministry of Transportation and Communications. The address of the Company’ s registered office is No. 376, Sec. 1, Hsin-nan Road, Luchu Dist., Taoyuan City, Taiwan.

The business activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “ Group” and individually as Group “entities”) are

(3) New standards, amendments and interpretations adopted:

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

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

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

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

(Continued)

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Group has elected to apply the practical expedient for all rent concessions that meet the criteria beginning January 1, 2020, with early adoption. No adjustment was made upon the initial application of the amendments. The amounts recognized in profit or loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $262,925.

  • (b) The impact of IFRS issued by the FSC but not yet effective

  • ●Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 “Interest Rate Benchmark Reform - Phase 2”

The amendments include clarifying the classification requirements for debt a company might settle by converting it into equity.

The Group is evaluating the impact of its initial adoption of the abovementioned standards or interpretations on its consolidated financial position and consolidated financial performance. The results thereof will be disclosed when the Group completes its evaluation.

(4) Summary of significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies presented in the consolidated financial statements are summarized below. Except for those specifically indicated, the following accounting policies were applied consistently throughout the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.

(a) Statement of compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers (hereinafter referred to as “the Regulations” ) and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission, R.O.C. (hereinafter referred to as “IFRSs endorsed by FSC”).

  • (b) Basis of preparation

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

All financial information presented in TWD has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

(Continued)

203

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

  • (c) Basis of consolidation

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

The consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group ‘controls’ an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases. Intragroup balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from Intragroup transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The Group attributes the profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Group.

Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the amount by which the noncontrolling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received will be recognized directly in equity, and the Group will attribute it to the owners of the parent.

(d) Foreign currency

  • (i) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the respective functional currencies of the Group at the exchange rates of the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate of that date. The foreign currency gains or losses on monetary items is the difference between the amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year adjusted for the effective interest and the payments during the period, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the reporting date.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate of the date the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items in a foreign currency that are measured based on historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of transactions.

Foreign currency differences arising from retranslation are recognized in profit or loss, except for the following differences which are recognized in other comprehensive income that arise from the retranslation:

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

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

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

(ii) Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to New Taiwan Dollars (which was expressed in reporting currency) at the exchange rates of the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to New Taiwan Dollars (which was expressed in reporting currency) at average rate. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes of any part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interest. When the Group disposes of only part of investment in an associate of joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.

When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely predicted in the foreseeable future, the foreign currency gains and losses arising from such items are considered as a part of investment in the foreign operation and are recognized in other comprehensive income.

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

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

  • (i) It expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal operating cycle;

  • (ii) It holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • (iii) It expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting date; or

  • (iv) The asset is cash or a cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

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

  • (i) It expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle;

  • (ii) It holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading;

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

  • (iv) The Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issuance of equity instruments that do not affect its classification.

  • (f) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and cash in bank. Cash equivalents are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by the Group in the management of its short-term commitments. Time deposits, in conformity with the aforementioned definition, that are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes, and that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value are recognized as cash equivalents.

  • (g) Financial instruments

  • (i) Financial assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. Financial assets are classified into the following categories: measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) and fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).

The Group shall reclassify all affected financial assets only when it changes its business model for managing its financial assets.

(Continued)

206

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

  • 1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

  • it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and

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

A financial asset measured at amortized cost is initially recognized at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses, and impairment loss, are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss.

  • 2)

  • Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)

A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

  • it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and

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

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

A financial asset measured at FVOCI is initially recognized at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses, and impairment losses, deriving from debt investments are recognized in profit or loss; whereas dividends deriving from equity investments are recognized as income in profit or loss, unless the dividend income clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses of financial assets measured at FVOCI are recognized in OCI. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI of debt investments are reclassified to profit or loss. However, gains and losses accumulated in OCI of equity investments are reclassified to retained earnings instead of profit or loss.

Dividend income derived from equity investments is recognized on the date that the Group’s right to receive payment is established.

(Continued)

207

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

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

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

Financial assets in this category are measured at fair value at initial recognition. Attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent changes that are measured at fair value, which take into account any dividend and interest income, are recognized in profit or loss.

Financial assets that are held for trading or are managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis are measured at FVTPL.

  • 4) Impairment of financial assets

The Group recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, other receivables, refundable deposits and other financial assets) and contract assets.

The Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs), except for the following which are measured as 12-month ECLs:

  • debt securities that are determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date; and

  • other debt securities and bank balances for which credit risk (i.e. the risk of default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument) has not increased significantly since initial recognition.

Loss allowance for trade receivables and contract assets are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months).

The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both qualitative and quantitative information and analysis based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment as well as forward-looking information.

(Continued)

208

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30 days past due.

The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when the financial asset is more than 365 days past due or the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full.

ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e the difference between the cash flows due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive). ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘ creditimpaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:

  • significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;

  • a breach of contract such as a default or being more than 60 days past due;

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

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

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

Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt securities at FVOCI, the loss allowance is recognized in other comprehensive income instead of reducing the carrying amount of the asset. The Group recognizes the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) in profit or loss, as an impairment gain or loss.

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

(Continued)

209

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

  • 5) Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the assets expire, or when the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets or in which the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.

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

(ii) Financial liabilities and equity instruments

  • 1) Classification of debt or equity

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

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

Compound financial instruments issued by the Group comprise convertible bonds that can be converted to share capital at the option of the holder when the number of shares to be issued is fixed.

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognized initially at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have any equity conversion option. The equity component is recognized initially at the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not re-measured subsequent to initial recognition.

Interest and gain or loss related to the financial liabilities are recognized in profit or loss, and are included in non-operating income and expenses.

On conversion, the financial liability is reclassified to equity, and no gain or loss is recognized.

(Continued)

210

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

  • 2) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

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

3) Other financial liabilities

Financial liabilities not classified as held-for-trading or designated as at FVTPL, which comprise short-term and long-term borrowings, and trade payables and other payables, shall be measured at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction cost at the time of initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost calculated using the effective interest method. Interest expense not capitalized as capital cost is recognized in profit or loss, and is under non-operating income and expenses.

  • 4) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Group derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligation has been discharged or cancelled or has expired.

The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability removed and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss, and is included in other gains and losses under non-operating income and expenses.

  • 5) Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities

The Group presents financial assets and liabilities on a net basis when the Group has the legally enforceable rights to offset and intends to settle such financial assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

  • (iii) Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

The Group holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency, interest rate and fuel price exposures. Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Any attributable transaction costs thereof are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. When a derivative is designated as, and effective for, a hedging instrument, its timing of recognition in profit or loss is determined based on the nature of the hedging relationship. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is positive, it is classified as a financial asset, whereas when the fair value is negative, it is classified as a financial liability.

(Continued)

211

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Group designates its hedging instruments, including derivatives, embedded derivatives, and non-derivative instruments for a hedge of a foreign currency risk, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. Foreign exchange risks of firm commitments are treated as fair value hedges. For a hedge of foreign currency risk with a highly probable forecast transaction, the foreign currency risk component of a non-derivative financial asset or a non-derivative financial liability may be designated as a hedging instrument provided.

An initial designated hedging relationships, the Group documents the risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The Group also documents the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, including whether the changes in cash flows of the hedged items and hedging instrument are expected to offset each other.

When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income and - accumulated in “other equity gains (losses) on hedging instruments”. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

When the hedged item is recognized in profit or loss, the amount accumulated in equity and retained in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss in the same period or in the periods during which the hedged item affects the profit or loss, and is presented in the same accounting item with the hedged item recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. However, for a cash flow hedge of a forecast transaction recognized as a nonfinancial asset or - liability, the amount accumulated in “other equity gains (losses) on hedging instruments” and retained in other comprehensive income is reclassified as the initial cost of the nonfinancial asset or liability.

The Group prospectively discontinues hedge accounting only when the hedging relationship ceases to meet the qualifying criteria; for instance, when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised.

(h) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted-average method, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs, and other costs incurred in bringing them to their present location and condition. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.

(Continued)

212

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(i) Non-current assets or disposal group classified as held for sale

Non-current assets or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities that are highly probable to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are reclassified as held for sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale , the assets, or components of a disposal group, are remeasured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies. Thereafter, generally, the assets or disposal groups are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Once classified as held for sale, property, plant and equipment and investment property are no longer depreciated.

(j) Investment in associates

Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over their financial and operating policies.

Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are recognized initially at cost. The cost of the investment includes transaction costs. The carrying amount of the investment in associates includes goodwill arising from the acquisition less any accumulated impairment losses.

The consolidated financial statements include the Group’ s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of equity-accounted investees, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date on which significant influence commences until the date on which significant influence ceases. The Group recognizes any changes of its proportionate share in the investee within capital surplus, when an associate’s equity changes due to reasons other than profit and loss or comprehensive income, which did not result in changes in actual significant influence.

Unrealized profits resulting from transactions between the Group and an associate are eliminated to the extent of the Group’ s interests in the associate. Unrealized losses on transactions with an associate are eliminated in the same way, except to the extent that the underlying asset is impaired.

When the Group’s share of losses of an associate equals or exceeds its interests in an associate, it discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

(k) Investment property

Investment property is the property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Investment property is measured at cost on initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at initial acquisition cost less any subsequent accumulated depreciation. Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are in accordance with the policy of property, plant and equipment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment property and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the investment property to a working condition for its intended use, and capitalized borrowing costs.

When the use of an investment property changes such that it is reclassified as property, plant and equipment, its book value at the date of reclassification becomes its cost for subsequent accounting.

(Continued)

213

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

  • (l) Property, plant and equipment

  • (i) Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributed to the acquisition of the asset. Cost also includes transfers from equity of any gain or loss on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment.

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, unless the useful life and the depreciation method of the significant part of an item of property, plant and equipment are the same as the useful life and depreciation method of another significant part of that same item.

The gain or loss arising from the disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item, and it shall be recognized as other gains and losses.

  • (ii) Major inspection and overhaul cost

Major inspection and overhaul expenditures of self-owned and leased aircraft are capitalized as costs of aircraft and leased assets by components, and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the overhaul. Costs of designated inspections to be performed at the end of the lease term of leased aircraft are estimated and depreciated using the straight-line method over the lease term.

  • (iii) Subsequent cost

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognized. Ongoing repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

(iv) Depreciation

The depreciable amount of an asset is determined after deducting its residual value, and it shall be allocated on a systematic basis over the asset’ s useful life. Items of property, plant and equipment with the same useful life may be grouped in determining the depreciation charge. The remainder of the items may be depreciated separately. The depreciation charge for each period shall be recognized in profit or loss.

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years of significant items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

  • 1) Land has unlimited useful life and therefore is not depreciated.

  • 2) Building and structures:

Main Buildings 10 to 55 years Others 4 to 35 years

(Continued)

214

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

  • 3) Machinery and equipment:

Electro-mechanical equipment 2 to 18 years Others 1 to 18 years 4) Aircraft: Airframes 15 to 18 years Aircraft cabins 12 years Engines 15 to 18 years

  • 5) Leased improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life.

Depreciation methods, useful lives, and residual values are reviewed at each fiscal year-end date. If expectations differ from the previous estimates, the change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.

A property is reclassified to investment property at its carrying amount when the use of the property changes from owner-occupied to investment purpose.

(m) Leases

  • (i) Identifying a lease

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

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

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

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

  • The Group has the right to direct the use of the asset when it has the decision-making rights that are most relevant to changing how and for what purpose the asset is used.

  • In rare cases where the decision on how, and for what purpose, the asset is used is predetermined, the Group has the right to direct the use of an asset if either:

(Continued)

215

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

  • - the Group has the right to operate its asset throughout the period of use, without the supplier having the right to change those operating instructions; or

  • - the Group designed the asset in a way that predetermines how, and for what purpose, it will be used throughout the period of use.

At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices. In addition, the Group has elected not to separate its non-lease components and lease accounts, but instead combine them as a single lease component by classifying their underlying assets.

(ii) As a leasee

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

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

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

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

  • fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;

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

  • - amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and

  • - payments for purchase or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised.

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

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

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

(Continued)

216

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

  • - there is a change in the assessment on whether it will have the option to exercise a purchase of the underlying asset;

  • - there is a change in the assessment on lease term as to whether it will be extended or terminated; and

  • the modifications of the lease underlying asset, scope or other terms.

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

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

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

The Group has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

For sale-and-leaseback transactions, the Group applies the requirements for determining when a performance obligation is satisfied in IFRS 15 to determine whether the transfer of an asset is accounted for as a sale of the asset. If the transfer of an asset satisfies the requirement of IFRS 15 to be accounted for as a sale of the asset, the Group measures the right-of-use asset arising from the leaseback at the proportion of the previous carrying amount of the asset that relates to the right of use retained. Accordingly, the Group recognizes only the amount of any gain or loss that relates to the rights transferred to the buyer-lessor. If the transfer of an asset does not satisfy the requirement of IFRS 15 to be accounted for as a sale of the asset, the Group will continue to recognize the transferred asset and shall recognize the financial liability equal to the transfer proceeds.

As a practical expedient, the Group elects not to assess whether all rent concessions that meets all the following conditions are lease modifications or not:

  • the rent concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic;

  • - the change in lease payments results in revised consideration for the lease that is substantially the same as, or less than, the consideration for the lease immediately preceding the change;

  • - any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before June 30, 2021; and

  • there is no substantive change to other terms and conditions of the lease.

(Continued)

217

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

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

(iii) As a lessor

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

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

If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, the Group applies IFRS 15 to allocate the consideration in the contract.

The Group recognizes lease payments received under operating leases as income over the lease term as part of income.

(n) Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group measures whether impairment occurred in non-financial assets (except for inventories and deferred tax assets), at each reporting date, and estimates their recoverable amount. If it is not possible to determine the recoverable amount (fair value less costs to sell and value in use) for an individual asset, then the Group will have to determine the recoverable amount for the asset’s cashgenerating unit.

The recoverable amount for an individual asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. If, and only if, the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset shall be reduced to its recoverable amount. That reduction is an impairment loss. An impairment loss shall be recognized immediately in profit or loss.

The Group should assess at each reporting date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized in prior periods for an asset other than goodwill may no longer exist or may have decreased. If any such indication exists, the entity shall estimate the recoverable amount of that asset. An impairment loss recognized in prior periods for an asset other than goodwill shall be reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’ s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If this is the case, the carrying amount of the asset shall be increased to its recoverable amount. That increase is a reversal of previously recognized impairment loss. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount net of depreciation or amortization that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognized.

(o) Provision

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

The estimated recovery costs are incurred through the lease of aircraft. The Group’ s restoration obligations are based on necessary maintenance expenses under the lease contracts of the aircraft, in which the Group expects all of the maintenance expenses to be reimbursed when the Group returns back all its rented aircraft. The amounts are estimated by gauging the maintenance experiences of similar types of aircraft, the actual maintenance expenses in the past, and the historical information on the usage of the aircraft.

(p) Intangible assets

The Group entered into contracts with the government to provide public service in infrastructure. The Group is obliged to construct the public sector asset and provide operation service for 30 years since the public sector asset was contracted. At the end of the operating period, the public sector asset should be returned to the government for no incremental consideration. Based on the IFRIC 12 "Service Concession Arrangements", the Group allocates the consideration received by reference to the relative fair values of the construction and operation services delivered. Subsequently, the Group recognizes and measures revenue in accordance with IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". The fair value of the services is determined as intangible assets or financial assets, by the nature of the consideration given by the grantor to the operator and by reference to the contract terms.

Intangible assets that are acquired by the Group are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates.

The amortization amount is the cost of an asset less its residual value. Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful lives were as follows:

  • (i) Operating concession: 30 years

  • (ii) Computer software: 2 to 5 years

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

(Continued)

219

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(q) Revenue recognition

  • (i) Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The Group recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or a service to a customer. The accounting policies for the Group’s main types of revenue are explained below.

1) Aviation transportation revenue

Ticket sales for passengers and cargo are recorded as unearned revenue. They are included in contract liabilities-current, and recognized as revenue when service is provided.

2) Customer loyalty program

The Group has a customer loyalty program, whereby, customers are awarded rights of accumulating mileages during their flights, and the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in respect of initial sale is allocated between the rights of accumulated mileages and the other components of the sale. The amount allocated to rights of accumulated mileages is estimated by the fair value of the redeemable part of the customer loyalty program and by reference to past experience of probability of redemption. Thus, the corresponding fair value is estimated and deferred, and service revenues will not be recognized until the rights have been redeemed and obligations are fulfilled. Also, contract liabilities will be converted into revenues when it is expected that the rights are probable not to be redeemed.

3) Maintenance services

The Group provides maintenance services. Revenue from providing services is recognized in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided. The proportion of services provided is determined based on the work performed incurred to date as a proportion of the total estimated work of the transaction.

Estimates of revenues, costs or extent of progress toward completion are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management.

In case of fixed-price contracts, the customer pays the fixed amount based on a payment schedule. If the services rendered by the Group exceed the payment, a contract asset is recognized. If the payments exceed the services rendered, a contract liability is recognized.

If the contract includes an hourly fee, revenue is recognized in the amount to which the Group has a right to invoice. Customers are invoiced on a monthly basis and consideration is payable when invoiced.

(Continued)

220

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

4) Sale of goods

The Group recognizes revenue when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has full discretion over the utility of the product, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer’ s acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Group has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.

Accounts receivable are recognized when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the Group has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional.

5) Financing components

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

(ii) Contract costs

  • 1) Incremental costs of obtaining a contract

The Group recognizes as an asset the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if the Group expects to recover those costs. The incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that the Group incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained. Costs to obtain a contract that would have been incurred regardless of whether the contract was obtained shall be recognized as an expense when incurred, unless those costs are explicitly chargeable to the customer regardless of whether the contract is obtained.

The Group applies the practical expedient to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that the entity otherwise would have recognized is one year or less.

2) Costs to fulfill a contract

If the costs incurred in fulfilling a contract with a customer are not within the scope of another standard (for example, IAS 2 Inventories, IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment or IAS 38 Intangible Assets), the Group recognizes an asset from the costs incurred to fulfil a contract only if those costs meet all of the following criteria:

  • the costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Group can specifically identify;

  • the costs generate or enhance resources of the Group that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future; and

  • the costs are expected to be recovered.

(Continued)

221

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

General and administrative costs, costs of wasted materials, labor or other resources to fulfil the contract that were not reflected in the price of the contract, costs that relate to satisfied performance obligations (or partially satisfied performance obligations), and costs for which the Group cannot distinguish whether the costs relate to unsatisfied performance obligations or to satisfied performance obligations (or partially satisfied performance obligations), the Group recognizes these costs as expenses when incurred.

(r) Government grants

The Group recognizes an unconditional government grant related COVID-19 as reduction of expenses when the grant becomes receivable. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses or losses incurred are recognized in profit or loss in the periods in which the expenses or losses are recognized.

(s) Employee benefits

  • (i) Defined contribution plans

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees.

(ii) Defined benefit plans

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Group’s net obligation in respect of the defined benefit pension plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The fair value of any plan assets is deducted. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on market yields of government bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group’ s obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid.

The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a benefit to the Group, the recognized asset is limited to the total of the present value of economic benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. In order to calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any minimum funding requirements that apply to any plan in the Group. An economic benefit is available to the Group if it is realizable during the life of the plan, or on settlement of the plan liabilities.

When the benefits of a plan are improved the expense of the increased benefit relating to past service by employees is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability (asset), which comprise (1) actuarial gains and losses, (2) the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and (3) the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income. The Group recognizes the amounts in retained earnings.

(Continued)

222

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Group recognizes gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of a defined benefit plan when the curtailment or settlement occurs. The gain or loss on curtailment or settlement comprises any resulting change in the fair value of plan assets, any change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

  • (iii) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are accrued when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee. A liability is recognized when the obligation can be estimated reliably.

(t) Share-based payment

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

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

Grant date of a share-based payment award is the date which the board of directors authorized the Chairman of the Company to set up the exercise price.

(u) Income taxes

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

Current taxes include tax payables and tax deduction receivables on taxable gains (losses) for the year calculated using the statutory tax rate on the reporting date or the actual legislative tax rate, as well as tax adjustments related to prior years.

Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases. Deferred taxes shall not be recognized for the exceptions below:

  • (i) Assets and liabilities that are initially recognized but are not related to a business combination and have no effect on net income or taxable gains (losses) during the transaction.

  • (ii) Temporary differences arising from equity investments in subsidiaries or joint ventures where there is a high probability that such temporary differences will not reverse.

  • (iii) Initial recognition of goodwill.

(Continued)

223

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Deferred tax assets and liabilities shall be measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities may be offset against each other if the following criteria are met:

  • (i) The Group has the legal right to settle tax assets and liabilities on a net basis; and

  • (ii) the taxing of deferred tax assets and liabilities fulfills one of the scenarios below:

  • 1) levied by the same taxing authority; or

  • 2) levied by different taxing authorities, but where each such authority intends to settle tax assets and liabilities (where such amounts are significant) on a net basis every year of the period of expected asset realization or debt liquidation, or where the timing of asset realization and debt liquidation is matched.

A deferred tax asset should be recognized for the carry forward of unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences shall also be re-evaluated at each reporting date, and adjusted based on the probability that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

(v) Earnings per share (EPS)

The Group discloses the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company. The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the profit or loss attributable to the ordinary equity holders of the Company divided by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company, divided by the weightedaverage number of ordinary shares outstanding after adjustment for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, such as convertible bonds and employee compensation.

(w) Operating segment

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

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

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

(Continued)

224

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management continues to monitor the accounting estimates and assumptions. Management recognizes any changes in the accounting estimates during the period and the impact of the changes in the accounting estimates in the next year.

There is no information about critical judgments in the consolidated financial statements.

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment within the next year is as follow. Those assumptions and estimations have been updated to reflect the impact of COVID-19 pandemic:

  • (a) Contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue

For the rights of accumulated mileages that are estimated by using the fair value of the redeemable part of the customer loyalty program and, the reference to past experience of probability of redemption; please refer to note 4(q) for further details on related matter. Changes in fair value per - mileage or redemption rate may have a material impact on the contract liabilities mileage - redemption revenue. Also, contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue will be converted into revenues when the member actually redeems the mileage or it is expected that the rights are probable - not to be redeemed; please refer to note 6(x) for estimation of contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue.

(b) Impairment of long-term non-financial assets

During the process of impairment assessment, the Group relies on subjective judgment to determine the individual cash flows of a specific group of assets, useful lives and estimates future gains and losses according to the usage of assets and business characteristics; please refer to note 4(n) for further details on related matter. Alteration of estimates from any change in economic conditions or business strategy may lead to impairment loss in the future; please refer to note 6(k) for further description of the key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount.

The accounting policy and disclosure of the Group include measuring the financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. The accounting department of the Group uses information of external information to make the evaluation result agreeable to the market status and to ensure that the data resources are independent, reliable and consistent with the other resources. The accounting department of the Group regularly revises the evaluation models and the input parameters, makes retrospective review and makes essential adjustments to ensure that the evaluation results is reasonable.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows.

– Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

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

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

(Continued)

225

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Group recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.

Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in notes 6(g), 6(m) and 6(aa).

(i) Fuel option agreements

The Group needs fuel for operating. However, cash flow risk will occur if the future cash flows for fuel fluctuate due to the floating market prices. The Group evaluates the risk as significant, and thus, hedges the risk by signing fuel option agreements. The cash flow hedged items and derivative financial hedging instruments were as follows:

  • (ii) In 2015, the consolidated subsidiary, Evergreen Aviation Technologies Corp., (hereinafter refer to as EGAT), purchased a piece of agricultural land on Puxin, Dayuan Dist., Taoyuan City for car park lot amounting to $60,558. The purchase was in the name of EGAT’s director. The Group has implemented adequate safeguard procedures for the agricultural land mentioned above.

  • (iii) Impairment test

According to IAS 36 “ Impairment of assets” , the Group periodically assesses for any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. When evaluating the recoverable amount of the CGU, the pre-tax discount rate is used to estimate the future cash flow. After performing the impairment test, the recoverable amount for the CGU turned out to be higher than its carry amounts. Therefore, there was no impairment loss to be recognized at December 31, 2020.

The recoverable amounts of CGU were evaluated, and the critical assumptions used for this evaluation were as follows:

  • 1) The cash flow period of twelve years, which was estimated on the basis of previous experience, actual operating result and management-approved financial budget.

  • 2) The estimated operating revenue, operating cost, and operating expenses based on the future operation plan, taking into consideration the changes and business competitions within the industry.

  • 3) The estimate discount rate of 3.28%.

  • (iv) Pledge

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group’s property, plant and equipment were used as pledge for long-term borrowings and lines of credit, and they are disclosed in note 8.

  • (v) For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group capitalized the interest expenses amounting to $125,913 and $143,302, respectively. The ranges of the monthly interest rate used for capitalization calculation were 0.07%~0.11% and 0.10%~0.13%, respectively.

(iii) Retained earnings

According to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, if the Company reports a surplus at the year end, after clearing taxes, the Company shall first offset accumulated losses (if any), then set aside 10% of the balance as the statutory surplus reserve, and set aside or reverse special surplus reserve per the provisions. After that, the Board of Directors shall propose a surplus distribution plan of the balance plus the retained earnings accrued from prior years, submit the distribution plan to the shareholders’ meeting for approval, and then distribute it. The dividends can be distributed wholly or partly in cash only after a resolution has been adopted by a majority vote at a meeting of the board of directors attended by two-thirds of the total number of directors; and in addition thereto a report of such distribution shall be submitted to the shareholders’ meeting.

The dividends shall be distributed in the combination of cash and stocks, provided that cash dividends shall not be less than 10% of the total amount of dividends.

1) Legal reserve

If a company has no accumulated deficit, it may, as per Article 240 and 241 of the Company Act, distribute its legal reserve, in whole or in part, for the portion in excess of 25% of the paid-in capital, by issuing new shares or cash to its original shareholders in proportion to the number of shares being held by each of them. The distribution can be paid in cash after a resolution has been adopted by a majority vote at a meeting of the board of directors attended by two-thirds of the total number of directors; and in addition thereto, a report of such distribution shall be submitted to the shareholders’ meeting for approval.

2) Special reserve

In accordance with Decree No. 1010012865 issued by the FSC on April 6, 2012, a portion of current-period earnings and undistributed prior-period earnings shall be reclassified as a special earnings reserve during earnings distribution. The amount to be reclassified should be equal to the current-period total net reduction of other equity. Similarly, a portion of undistributed prior-period earnings shall be reclassified as a special earnings reserve (which does not qualify for earnings distribution) to account for cumulative changes to other shareholders’ equity pertaining to prior periods. Amounts of subsequent reversals pertaining to the net reduction of other equity shall qualify for additional distributions.

3) Earnings distribution

The appropriation of 2019 earnings was approved at the Board meeting on March 19, 2020. The cash dividends were amounting to $1,213,392.

(ii) Contract balances

The amount of revenue recognized for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period was $11,255,232 and $15,459,505, respectively.

The contract liabilities primarily relate to deferred recognition of revenue relating to ticket services and customer loyalty programs, for which revenue is recognized when the ticket sales for passengers and award points are redeemed or when they expire.

The major change in the balance of contract assets and contract liabilities is the difference between the time frame in the performance obligation to be satisfied and the payment to be received. Other significant changes during the period are as follows:

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the amounts allocated to the customer loyalty program were $3,671,091 and $4,044,162, respectively. These will be recognized as revenue as the customer loyalty program points are redeemed or when they expire, which are expected to occur over the next three years.

The contract of maintenance services has an original expected duration of less than one year, thus the Group applies the practical expedient of IFRS 15 and does not disclose information about the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations of the contract.

All consideration from contracts with customers is included in the transaction price presented above.

(y) Remuneration to employees and directors

According to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, once the Company incurs profit in a fiscal year, a minimum of 1% will be distributed as employees’remuneration and a maximum of 2% will be allotted for directors’ remuneration. However, if the Company has accumulated losses, the earnings shall first be offset against any deficit.

The definition of annual earnings, as described in the above-mentioned paragraph, is the Company’s profit before tax, excluding the amount of the employees’ remuneration, and the directors’ remuneration.

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company accrued and recognized its employees’ remuneration of $0 and $284,125, respectively, and the directors’ remuneration of $0 and $9,500, respectively. These remunerations were included in the operating costs and operating expenses.

The differences between the actual distributed amounts as determined by the Board of Directors and those recognized in the financial statements, if any, shall be accounted for as changes in accounting estimates and recognized in profit or loss in the following year.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company ’s actual distributed amounts and recognized amounts of its employees’ remuneration and directors’ remuneration were both $0. There was a decrease of $113,650 between the actual amounts of remuneration to employees, and directors distributed for the year 2019 determined by the Board of Directors and the estimated amounts mainly due to the adjustment of the Board of Directors’ resolution. The differences shall be accounted for as changes in accounting estimates and recognized in profit or loss for the year 2020. The related information can be found on Market Observation Post System website.

  • (aa) Financial instruments

  • (i) Credit risk

1) Credit risk exposure

The maximum exposure to credit risk is mainly from the carrying amount of financial assets and contract assets.

(Continued)

259

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

2) Circumstances of concentration of credit risk

Accounts receivable were due from many customers and regional distributions were decentralized. Therefore, there was no concentration of credit risk. In order to reduce the credit risk of accounts receivable, the Group continually evaluates each customer’ s financial situation and requires customers to be a member of IATA clearing house. Otherwise, the customer will have to provide bank guarantees or collaterals.

3) Credit risk of receivables

For credit risk exposure of notes and accounts receivable, please refer to note 6(d). Other financial assets at amortized cost includes other receivables and time deposits. For the details on loss allowance, please refer to notes 6(b), 6(e) and 6(o).

All of these financial assets are considered to have low risk, and thus, the impairment provision recognized during the period was limited to 12 months expected losses. Regarding how the financial instruments are considered to have low credit risk, please refer to note 4(f).

2) Sensitivity analysis

The Group’s monetary items exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, financial assets at amortized cost, notes and accounts receivable (including related parties), refundable deposits (included in other non-current assets), notes and accounts payable (including related parties), other payables (including related parties), lease liabilities and restoration obligations (included in other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities) that are denominated in foreign currency. A strengthening (weakening) of 1% of the TWD against the USD, EUR, JPY, HKD and CNY as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, would have changed the profit (loss) before tax by $53,354 and $140,957 and the equity by $885,103 and $982,046 due to cash flow hedges, respectively. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2020 and 2019.

(Continued)

261

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Due to the variety of the Group’s functional currency, the Group discloses its exchange gains and losses of monetary items collectively. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group’ s foreign exchange gains (losses), net (including realized and unrealized of monetary items) amounted to $721,344 and $(468,824), respectively.

(iv) Interest rate risk

The interest rate exposure of the Group’ s financial liabilities are illustrated in note 6(aa) liquidity risk.

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the exposure to interest rate risk of the nonderivative financial instruments on the reporting date. For variable-rate instruments, the sensitivity analysis assumes the variable-rate liabilities are outstanding for the whole year on the reporting date. The Group’ s internal department reported the increases/decreases in the interest rates and the exposure to changes in interest rates by 1% to the Group’ s key management so as to allow key management to assess the reasonableness of the changes in the interest rates.

If the interest rate increases (decreases) by 1% with all other variable factors that remain constant, the profit (loss) before tax of the Group would have changed $1,070,944 and $850,098 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively due to the Group’s floating-interest borrowings.

(v) Other market price risk

If the price of the equity securities changes, and it is on the same basis for both years and assumes that all other variables remain the same, the impact on comprehensive income will be as follows:

(vi) Fair value

  • 1) Categories and fair values of financial instruments

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, financial instruments used for hedging, and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income is measured on a recurring basis. The carrying amount and fair value of the Group’ s financial assets and liabilities, including the information on fair value hierarchy were as follows; however, except as described in the following paragraphs, for financial instruments not measured at fair value whose carrying amount is reasonably close to the fair value, and lease liabilities, disclosure of fair value information is not required:

2) Valuation techniques and assumptions used in fair value determination

  • a) Non-derivative financial instruments

The fair value of financial instruments traded in an active market is based on the quoted market prices. The quotations, which is published by the main exchange center or that which was deemed to be a public bond by the Treasury Bureau of Central Bank, is included in the fair value of the listed securities instruments and the debt instruments in active markets with open bid.

A financial instrument is regarded as being quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’ s-length basis. Whether transactions are taking place ‘regularly’ is a matter of judgment and depends on the facts and circumstances of the market for the instrument. Quoted market prices may not be indicative of the fair value of an instrument if the activity in the market is infrequent, the market is not well-established, only small volumes are traded, or bid-ask spreads are very wide. Determining whether a market is active involves judgment.

(Continued)

264

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For financial instruments traded in active markets, their fair values are listed below by types and attributes:

  • The stocks of publicly traded companies are financial assets which are traded in active markets under standard terms and conditions. The fair value of the abovementioned stocks is based on quoted market prices.

Measurements of fair value of financial instruments without an active market are based on a valuation technique. Fair value measured by a valuation technique can be extrapolated from the fair value of similar financial instruments, the discounted cash flow method, or other valuation technique.

For financial instruments not traded in active markets, their fair values are listed below by types and attributes:

  • Equity instruments with no quoted market prices: the Group takes the quote market prices and the price-book ratios of similar publicly traded companies into consideration by using the market comparison approach. The estimates had been adjusted by the depreciation from lack of market liquidity.

  • b) Derivative financial instruments

Measurement of the fair value of derivative instruments is based on the valuation techniques generally accepted by market participants such as the discounted cash flow and option pricing models. Fair value of forward currency is usually determined by the forward currency exchange rate.

  • 3) Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the fair value hierarchy levels of financial instruments were not transferred.

  • 4) Movements in fair value measurements of financial assets in Level 3

The following table shows the reconciliation from the beginning balance to the ending balances for fair value measurements in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

  • 5) Quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3

The Group classified a partial of its financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income investment in equity securities that do not have a quoted market price in an active market as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Most of the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 use the significant unobservable inputs. The significant unobservable inputs are independent to each other.

The significant unobservable inputs were as follows:

  • 6) Sensitivity analysis for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy

The fair value measurements of the Group’ s financial instruments are reasonable. However, changes in the use of valuation models or valuation variables may affect the estimations. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, for fair value measurements in Level 3, a fluctuation in the valuation variable by 5% would have the following effects:

The analysis above only reflects the effects of changes in a single input, and it does not include the inter-relationships with another input.

  • (ab) Management of financial risk

  • (i) The Group is exposed to the nature and extent of the risks arising from financial instruments as below:

    • 1) Credit risk

    • 2) Liquidity risk

    • 3) Market risk

Detailed information about exposure risk arising from the aforementioned risk and the Group’s objective, policies and process for managing risks have been stated below. Further quantitative disclosures have been disclosed as notes to the consolidated financial statements.

  • (ii) Risk management framework

The Group’s Board of Directors has responsibility for the oversight of the risk management framework. The Group’ s inter-department management and committee, which consists of managers from all departments, is responsible for monitoring the Group’s risk management policies and reports regularly to the Board of Directors on its activities.

The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. The inter-department management and committee are reviewed regularly to reflect change in market conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.

(Continued)

267

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Group’s supervisors and Audit Committee oversee how management monitors compliance with the Group’s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risk faced by the Group. The Group’ s supervisors and Audit Committee are assisted in its oversight role by the internal auditor. The internal auditor reviews the risk controls and procedures, and reports the results on a regular or irregular basis to the supervisors and Audit Committee.

(iii) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to financial instruments fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers and investments in securities.

1) Notes and accounts receivable

The Group’ s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer. In accordance with the Group’ s credit policy, each customer is analyzed individually for creditworthiness, and is required to be a member of IATA clearing house. Otherwise, the customer will have to provide bank guarantees or collaterals before its credit terms and credit limit are offered. Credit limit is offered to each customer as the limit of transactions and is reviewed regularly.

The transaction amount of the majority of the Group’ s customers is not significant, leading to an insignificant influence of loss from credit risk arising from single customer on the Group. The Group set up the forward-looking “expected credit loss” model to reflect the estimated impairment loss of notes and accounts receivable.

2) Investments

The credit risk exposure in the bank deposits, fixed income investments and other equity instruments are measured and monitored by the Group’s finance department. Since the Group’ s transactions are with external parties with good credit standing, highly rated financial institutions, publicly traded stock companies and unlisted companies with good reputation, there are no non-compliance issues and therefore no significant credit risk.

3) Guarantees

As of December 31, 2020, the Group did not provide endorsements and guarantees.

(iv) Liquidity risk

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

(Continued)

268

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Group’s finance department monitors the needs for cash flows, and plans optional return from investments of idle capital. The Group aims to maintain the level of its cash and cash equivalents at an amount to cope with expected cash outflows on operation, including meeting its financial obligations. This excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters.

(v) Market risk

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

1) Currency risk

The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of the Group, primarily the TWD and USD. The currencies used in these transactions are principally denominated in TWD, CNY, EUR, USD, and JPY.

The Group hedges its cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables from sales, trade payables to purchase and leases payments for aircraft denominated in a foreign currency. When necessary, the Group uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its currency risk. The financial department proactively collects information of currency to monitor the trend of currency rate and keeps connection with the foreign currency department of banks to collect the market information for securing the currency risk.

The Group determines the existence of an economic relationship between the hedging instruments and hedged item based on the currency, amount and timing of their respective cash flows. The Group assesses whether the derivative designated in each hedging relationship is expected to be and has been effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item using the hypothetical derivative method. For hedging foreign currency risk on the cash flow of aviation transportation with a highly probable forecast transaction, the foreign currency risk component of a non-derivative financial asset or a non-derivative financial liability may be designated as a hedging instrument provided.

In these hedge relationships, the main sources of ineffectiveness are:

  • the effect of the counterparty and the Group’s own credit risk on the fair value of the forward foreign exchange contracts, which is not reflected in the change in the fair value of the hedged cash flows attributable to the change in exchange rates; and

  • changes in the timing of the hedged transactions.

(Continued)

269

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

2) Interest rate risk

The Group adopts a policy of ensuring that its exposure to changes in interest rates on borrowings is on a fixed-rate basis, taking into account assets with exposure to changes in interest rates. This is achieved partly by entering into fixed-rate instruments and partly by borrowing at a floating rate and using interest rate swaps as hedges of variability in cash flows attributable to movements in interest rates.

The Group determines the existence of an economic relationship between the hedging instrument and hedged item based on the reference interest rates, tenors, reprising dates and maturities and the notional or par amounts. The Group assesses whether the derivative designated in each hedging relationship is expected to be effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item using the hypothetical derivative method.

In these hedge relationships, the main sources of ineffectiveness are:

  • the effect of the counterparty and the Group’s own credit risk on the fair value of the swaps which is not reflected in the change in the fair value of the hedged cash flows attributable to the change in interest rates; and

  • differences in reprising dates between the swaps and the borrowings.

3) Other market price risk

The Group is exposed to equity price risk due to the investments in equity securities. This is a strategic investment and is not held for trading. The management of the Group monitors the combination of equity securities and open-market funds in its investment portfolio based on cash flow requirements. Material investments within the portfolio are managed on an individual basis, and all buy-and-sell decisions are approved by the Board of Directors.

  • (ac) Capital management

The Board of Directors’ policy is to maintain a strong capital base to maintain the confidence of investors, creditors, and the market and to sustain future development of the business. The Board of Directors monitors the level of dividends to ordinary equity holders as well as future operation of the business.

The capital structure of the Group consists of net debt and equity. The net debt from the balance sheet is derived from the total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. The total capital includes equity (ordinary share, capital surplus, retained earnings, other equity and non-controlling interests) and net debt.

As of December 31, 2020, there were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management.

EGAC has acquired the right to operate since the date of approval of operation and is not allowed to transfer the running of all the business to third-party. However, the running of part of the business can be transferred to third-party if CAA approves.

  • b) EGAC acquired an air cargo entrepot license issued by CAA on February 26, 2002 to obtain the right to operate terminal and start operations officially.

  • 3) Royalty

EGAC should pay CAA royalties with the amount of a certain percentage (originally set at 6.00% before being adjusted to 6.10% on July 1, 2005 and adjusted subsequently to 6.00% in October 2008 until December 2023) of operating revenue, plus business tax, for each two-month period during the operating period. At the end of each accounting year, the adjustments will be made based on the differences between the amount of royalties EGAC has to pay, which is calculated as the total revenue (inclusive of operating revenue and non-operating income but exclusive of rental income from subletting operating facilities to Fedex) disclosed in the financial statements audited by the certified public accountants and multiplied by the aforementioned percentage, and adjusted by the amount of royalties EGAC has already paid during the same period. EGAC has to make up for the difference if the amount of royalties EGAC has to pay is more than those already paid; the difference will be deducted from the amount EGAC has to pay in the following period if the situation is the opposite.

4) Transfer of assets at the end of concession period

At the end of concession period, the lease agreement of the land is terminated and the land has to be returned to the government. EGAC is allowed to transfer with remuneration to the government the operating assets, in their status quo at the end of concession period, whose addition has been approved by CAA during the 5-year period before the expiration of concession period. The operating assets (in their status quo at the end of concession period, and acquired prior to the 5-year period before the expiration of concession period) have to be transferred without remuneration to the government, unless otherwise agreed. The transferred object consists of all the operating assets as well as other assets necessary to operations which were acquired by building and operating in accordance with the concession contract during the concession period.

Independent Auditors� Report

To the Board of Directors of EVA Airways Corp.:

Opinion

We have audited the parent-company-only financial statements of EVA Airways Corp. (�the Company�), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, 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 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 Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (�the Code�), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. 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.

  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(w) �Revenue from contracts with customers� of the financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The member who joins the �Infinity MileageLands� (�the Program�) can earn mileage by flying any of the Company�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.

292

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.

293

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.

294

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.

EVA AIRWAYS CORP.

Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

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

(1) Company history

EVA Airways Corp (the � Company�) was incorporated on April 7, 1989, as a corporation limited by shares under special permission of the Republic of China (R.O.C.) Ministry of Transportation and Communications. The address of the Company�s registered office is No. 376, Sec. 1, Hsin-nan Road, Luchu Dist., Taoyuan City, Taiwan.

The Company�s business activities are

  • (a) civil aviation transportation and general aviation business;

  • (b) to carry out any business which is not forbidden or restricted by the applicable laws and regulations, excluding those requiring licensing.

(2) Approval date and procedures of the financial statements

The parent-company-only financial statements were authorized by the Company�s Board of Directors as of March 22, 2021.

(3) New standards, amendments and interpretations adopted

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

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

  • (i) Amendments to IFRS 16 �COVID-19-Related Rent Concessions�

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

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient for all rent concessions that meet the criteria beginning January 1, 2020, with early adoption. No adjustment was made upon the initial application of the amendments. The amounts recognized in profit or loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $145,556.

(Continued)

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

  • (ii) Other amendments

The following new amendments, effective January 1, 2020, do not have a significant impact on the Company�s parent-company-only financial statements:

  • Amendments to IFRS 3 �Definition of a Business�

  • Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 �Interest Rate Benchmark Reform�

  • Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8 �Definition of Material�

  • (b) The impact of IFRS issued by the FSC but not yet effective

The Company assesses that the adoption of the following new amendments, effective for annual period beginning on January 1, 2021, would not have a significant impact on its parent-company-only financial statements:

  • Amendments to IFRS 4 �Extension of the Temporary Exemption from Applying IFRS 9�

  • Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 �Interest Rate Benchmark Reform Phase 2�

  • (c) The impact of IFRS issued by IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC

The following new and amended standards, which may be relevant to the Company, have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), but have yet to be endorsed by the FSC:

Standards or
Interpretations
Amendments to IAS 1
�Classification of Liabilities as
Current or Non-current�
Content of amendment
Effective date per
IASB
The amendments aim to promote consistency
in applying the requirements by helping
companies
determine
whether,
in
the
statement of balance sheet, debt and other
liabilities with an uncertain settlement date
should be classified as current (due or
potentially due to be settled within one year)
or non-current.
The amendments include clarifying the
classification
requirements
for
debt
a
company might settle by converting it into
equity.
January 1, 2023

The Company is evaluating the impact of its initial adoption of the abovementioned standards or interpretations on its financial position and financial performance. The results thereof will be disclosed when the Company completes its evaluation.

  • Amendments to IAS 8 �Definition of Accounting Estimates�

(4) Summary of significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, except when otherwise indicated. The significant accounting policies presented in the parent-company-only financial statements are summarized as follows:

(a) Statement of compliance

These parent-company-only financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers (hereinafter referred to as �the Regulations�).

(b) Basis of preparation

  • (i) Basis of measurement

The parent-company-only financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for the following material items in the balance sheets:

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

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

  • 3) Hedging financial instruments are measured at fair value; and

  • 4) The net defined benefit liabilities are recognized as the present value of the defined benefit obligation, less, the fair value of plan assets.

  • (ii) Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of the Company is determined based on the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The parent-company-only financial statements are presented in New Taiwan Dollar, which is the Company�s functional currency. All financial information presented in TWD has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

(c) Foreign currency

  • (i) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the respective functional currencies of the Company at the exchange rates of the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate of that date. The foreign currency gains or losses on monetary items is the difference between the amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year adjusted for the effective interest and the payments during the period, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the reporting date.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate of the date the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items in a foreign currency that are measured based on historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of transactions.

Foreign currency differences arising from retranslation are recognized in profit or loss, except for the following differences which are recognized in other comprehensive income that arise from the retranslation

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

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

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

(ii) Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to New Taiwan Dollars (which was expressed in reporting currency) at the exchange rates of the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to New Taiwan Dollars (which was expressed in reporting currency) at average rate. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Company disposes of any part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to noncontrolling interest. When the Company disposes of only part of investment in an associate of joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.

When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely predicted in the foreseeable future, the foreign currency gains and losses arising from such items are considered as a part of investment in the foreign operation and are recognized in other comprehensive income.

  • (d) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities

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

  • (i) It expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal operating cycle;

  • (ii) It holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • (iii) It expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting date; or

  • (iv) The asset is cash or a cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

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

  • (i) It expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle;

  • (ii) It holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading;

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

  • (iv) The Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issuance of equity instruments that do not affect its classification.

  • (e) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and cash in bank. Cash equivalents are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by the Company in the management of its short-term commitments. Time deposits, in conformity with the aforementioned definition, that are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes, and that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value are recognized as cash equivalents.

  • (f) Financial instruments

  • (i) Financial assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. Financial assets are classified into the following categories: measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) and fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).

The Company shall reclassify all affected financial assets only when it changes its business model for managing its financial assets.

(Continued)

305

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

  • 1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

  • it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and

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

A financial asset measured at amortized cost is initially recognized at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses, and impairment loss, are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss.

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

A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

  • it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and

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

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

A financial asset measured at FVOCI is initially recognized at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses, and impairment losses, deriving from debt investments are recognized in profit or loss; whereas dividends deriving from equity investments are recognized as income in profit or loss, unless the dividend income clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses of financial assets measured at FVOCI are recognized in OCI. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI of debt investments are reclassified to profit or loss. However, gains and losses accumulated in OCI of equity investments are reclassified to retained earnings instead of profit or loss.

Dividend income derived from equity investments is recognized on the date that the Company�s right to receive payment is established.

(Continued)

306

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

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

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

Financial assets in this category are measured at fair value at initial recognition. Attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent changes that are measured at fair value, which take into account any dividend and interest income, are recognized in profit or loss.

Financial assets that are held for trading or are managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis are measured at FVTPL.

  • 4) Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, other receivables, refundable deposits and other financial assets).

The Company measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs), except for the following which are measured as 12-month ECLs:

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

  • other debt securities and bank balances for which credit risk (i.e. the risk of default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument) has not increased significantly since initial recognition.

Loss allowance for trade receivables is always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months).

The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Company is exposed to credit risk.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Company considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both qualitative and quantitative information and analysis based on the Company�s historical experience and informed credit assessment as well as forwardlooking information.

(Continued)

307

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

The Company assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30 days past due.

The Company considers a financial asset to be in default when the financial asset is more than 365 days past due or the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Company in full.

ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e the difference between the cash flows due to the Company in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Company expects to receive). ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is �credit-impaired� when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:

significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;

  • a breach of contract such as a default or being more than 60 days past due;

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

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

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

Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt securities at FVOCI, the loss allowance is recognized in other comprehensive income instead of reducing the carrying amount of the asset. The Company recognizes the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) in profit or loss, as an impairment gain or loss.

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Company�s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

  • 5) Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the assets expire, or when the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets or in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.

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

  • (ii) Financial liabilities and equity instruments

  • 1) Classification of debt or equity

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

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

Compound financial instruments issued by the Company comprise convertible bonds that can be converted to share capital at the option of the holder when the number of shares to be issued is fixed.

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognized initially at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have any equity conversion option. The equity component is recognized initially at the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not re-measured subsequent to initial recognition.

Interest and gain or loss related to the financial liabilities are recognized in profit or loss, and are included in non-operating income and expenses.

On conversion, the financial liability is reclassified to equity, and no gain or loss is recognized.

(Continued)

309

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

  • 2) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

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

  • 3) Other financial liabilities

Financial liabilities not classified as held-for-trading or designated as at FVTPL, which comprise short-term and long-term borrowings, and trade payables and other payables, shall be measured at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction cost at the time of initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost calculated using the effective interest method. Interest expense not capitalized as capital cost is recognized in profit or loss, and is under non-operating income and expenses.

  • 4) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligation has been discharged or cancelled or has expired.

The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability removed and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss, and is included in other gains and losses under non-operating income and expenses.

  • 5) Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities

The Company presents financial assets and liabilities on a net basis when the Company has the legally enforceable rights to offset and intends to settle such financial assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

  • (iii) Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

The Company holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency, interest rate and fuel price exposures. Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Any attributable transaction costs thereof are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. When a derivative is designated as, and effective for, a hedging instrument, its timing of recognition in profit or loss is determined based on the nature of the hedging relationship. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is positive, it is classified as a financial asset, whereas when the fair value is negative, it is classified as a financial liability.

(Continued)

310

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

The Company designates its hedging instruments, including derivatives, embedded derivatives, and non-derivative instruments for a hedge of a foreign currency risk, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. Foreign exchange risks of firm commitments are treated as fair value hedges. For a hedge of foreign currency risk with a highly probable forecast transaction, the foreign currency risk component of a non-derivative financial asset or a non-derivative financial liability may be designated as a hedging instrument provided.

An initial designated hedging relationships, the Company documents the risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The Company also documents the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, including whether the changes in cash flows of the hedged items and hedging instrument are expected to offset each other.

When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in �other equity gains (losses) on hedging instruments�. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

When the hedged item is recognized in profit or loss, the amount accumulated in equity and retained in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss in the same period or in the periods during which the hedged item affects the profit or loss, and is presented in the same accounting item with the hedged item recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. However, for a cash flow hedge of a forecast transaction recognized as a nonfinancial asset or liability, the amount accumulated in �other equity gains (losses) on hedging instruments� and retained in other comprehensive income is reclassified as the initial cost of the nonfinancial asset or liability.

The Company prospectively discontinues hedge accounting only when the hedging relationship ceases to meet the qualifying criteria; for instance, when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised.

(g) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted-average method, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, and other costs incurred in bringing them to their present location and condition.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the selling expenses.

  • (h) Non-current assets or disposal group classified as held for sale

Non-current assets or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities that are highly probable to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are reclassified as held for sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale , the assets, or components of a disposal group, are remeasured in accordance with the Company�s accounting policies. Thereafter, generally, the assets or disposal groups are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Once classified as held for sale, property, plant and equipment and investment property are no longer depreciated.

(i) Investment in associates

Associates are those entities in which the Company has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over their financial and operating policies.

Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are recognized initially at cost. The cost of the investment includes transaction costs. The carrying amount of the investment in associates includes goodwill arising from the acquisition less any accumulated impairment losses.

The financial statements include the Company�s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of equity-accounted investees, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Company, from the date on which significant influence commences until the date on which significant influence ceases. The Company recognizes any changes of its proportionate share in the investee within capital surplus, when an associate�s equity changes due to reasons other than profit and loss or comprehensive income, which did not result in changes in actual significant influence.

Unrealized profits resulting from transactions between the Company and an associate are eliminated to the extent of the Company�s interests in the associate. Unrealized losses on transactions with an associate are eliminated in the same way, except to the extent that the underlying asset is impaired.

When the Company�s share of losses of an associate equals or exceeds its interests in an associate, it discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

(j) Investment in subsidiaries

When preparing the parent-company-only financial statements, investment in subsidiaries which are controlled by the Company is accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, an investment in a subsidiary is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company�s share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the subsidiary as well as the distribution received. The Company also recognized its share in the changes in the equity of subsidiaries.

Changes in a parent�s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the loss of control are accounted for within equity.

(k) Investment property

Investment property is the property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Investment property is measured at cost on initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at initial acquisition cost less any subsequent accumulated depreciation. Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are in accordance with the policy of property, plant and equipment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment property and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the investment property to a working condition for its intended use, and capitalized borrowing costs.

When the use of an investment property changes such that it is reclassified as property, plant and equipment, its book value at the date of reclassification becomes its cost for subsequent accounting.

Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

  • (l) Property, plant and equipment

  • (i) Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributed to the acquisition of the asset. Cost also includes transfers from equity of any gain or loss on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment.

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, unless the useful life and the depreciation method of the significant part of an item of property, plant and equipment are the same as the useful life and depreciation method of another significant part of that same item.

The gain or loss arising from the disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item, and it shall be recognized as other gains and losses.

  • (ii) Major inspection and overhaul cost

Major inspection and overhaul expenditures of self-owned and leased aircraft are capitalized as costs of aircraft and leased assets by components, and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the overhaul. Costs of designated inspections to be performed at the end of the lease term of leased aircraft are estimated and depreciated using the straight-line method over the lease term.

  • (iii) Subsequent cost

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognized. Ongoing repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

(iv) Depreciation

The depreciable amount of an asset is determined after deducting its residual value, and it shall be allocated on a systematic basis over the asset�s useful life. Items of property, plant and equipment with the same useful life may be grouped in determining the depreciation charge. The remainder of the items may be depreciated separately. The depreciation charge for each period shall be recognized in profit or loss.

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years of significant items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

  • 1) Land has unlimited useful life and therefore is not depreciated.

  • 2) Building and structures:

Main Buildings 20 to 55 years Others 5 to 15 years

(Continued)

313

EVA AIRWAYS CORP.

Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

  • 3) Machinery and equipment:

Electro-mechanical equipment 3 to 18 years Others 1 to 18 years 4) Aircraft: Airframes 15 to 18 years Aircraft cabins 12 years Engines 15 to 18 years

  • 5) Leased improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life.

Depreciation methods, useful lives, and residual values are reviewed at each fiscal year-end date. If expectations differ from the previous estimates, the change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.

A property is reclassified to investment property at its carrying amount when the use of the property changes from owner-occupied to investment purpose.

  • (m) Leases

  • (i) Identifying a lease

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

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

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

  • 3) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset:

  • The Company has the right to direct the use of the asset when it has the decisionmaking rights that are most relevant to changing how and for what purpose the asset is used.

  • In rare cases where the decision on how, and for what purpose, the asset is used is predetermined, the Company has the right to direct the use of an asset if either:

(Continued)

314

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

the Company has the right to operate its asset throughout the period of use, without the supplier having the right to change those operating instructions; or

the Company designed the asset in a way that predetermines how, and for what purpose, it will be used throughout the period of use.

At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices. In addition, the Company has elected not to separate its non-lease components and lease accounts, but instead combine them as a single lease component by classifying their underlying assets.

(ii) As a leasee

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

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

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

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

fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;

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

amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and

payments for purchase or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised.

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

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

  • there is a change in the Company�s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee;

  • there is a change in the assessment on whether it will have the option to exercise a purchase of the underlying asset;

(Continued)

315

EVA AIRWAYS CORP.

Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

there is a change in the assessment on lease term as to whether it will be extended or terminated; and

the modifications of the lease underlying asset, scope or other terms.

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

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

The Company presents right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property and lease liabilities as a separate line item respectively in the statement of financial position.

The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for shortterm leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

For sale-and-leaseback transactions, the Company applies the requirements for determining when a performance obligation is satisfied in IFRS 15 to determine whether the transfer of an asset is accounted for as a sale of the asset. If the transfer of an asset satisfies the requirement of IFRS 15 to be accounted for as a sale of the asset, the Company measures the right-of-use asset arising from the leaseback at the proportion of the previous carrying amount of the asset that relates to the right of use retained. Accordingly, the Company recognizes only the amount of any gain or loss that relates to the rights transferred to the buyer-lessor. If the transfer of an asset does not satisfy the requirement of IFRS 15 to be accounted for as a sale of the asset, the Company will continue to recognize the transferred asset and shall recognize the financial liability equal to the transfer proceeds.

As a practical expedient, the Company elects not to assess all rent concessions that meets all the following conditions are lease modifications or not:

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

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

  • any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before June 30, 2021; and

there is no substantive change to other terms and conditions of the lease.

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

(Continued)

316

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

(iii) As a lessor

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

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

If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, the Company applies IFRS 15 to allocate the consideration in the contract.

The Company recognizes lease payments received under operating leases as income over the lease term as part of income.

(n) Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company measures whether impairment occurred in non-financial assets (except for inventories and deferred tax assets), at each reporting date, and estimates their recoverable amount. If it is not possible to determine the recoverable amount (fair value less costs to sell and value in use) for an individual asset, then the Company will have to determine the recoverable amount for the asset�s cash-generating unit.

The recoverable amount for an individual asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. If, and only if, the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset shall be reduced to its recoverable amount. That reduction is an impairment loss. An impairment loss shall be recognized immediately in profit or loss.

The Company should assess at each reporting date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized in prior periods for an asset other than goodwill may no longer exist or may have decreased. If any such indication exists, the entity shall estimate the recoverable amount of that asset. An impairment loss recognized in prior periods for an asset other than goodwill shall be reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset�s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If this is the case, the carrying amount of the asset shall be increased to its recoverable amount. That increase is a reversal of previously recognized impairment loss. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset�s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount net of depreciation or amortization that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognized.

(o) Provision

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

The estimated recovery costs are incurred through the lease of aircraft. The Company�s restoration obligations are based on necessary maintenance expenses under the lease contracts of the aircraft, in which the Company expects all of the maintenance expenses to be reimbursed when the Company returns back all its rented aircraft. The amounts are estimated by gauging the maintenance experiences of similar types of aircraft, the actual maintenance expenses in the past, and the historical information on the usage of the aircraft.

(p) Intangible assets

Intangible assets that are acquired by the Company are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates.

The amortization amount is the cost of an asset less its residual value. Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of 3~5 years of intangible assets, other than goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, from the date that they are available for use.

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

(q) Revenue recognition

  • (i) Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or a service to a customer. The accounting policies for the Company�s main types of revenue are explained below.

1) Aviation transportation revenue

Ticket sales for passengers and cargo are recorded as unearned revenue. They are included in contract liabilities-current, and recognized as revenue when service is provided.

(Continued)

318

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

2) Customer loyalty program

The Company has a customer loyalty program, whereby, customers are awarded rights of accumulating mileages during their flights, and the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in respect of initial sale is allocated between the rights of accumulated mileages and the other components of the sale. The amount allocated to rights of accumulated mileages is estimated by the fair value of the redeemable part of the customer loyalty program and by reference to past experience of probability of redemption. Thus, the corresponding fair value is estimated and deferred, and service revenues will not be recognized until the rights have been redeemed and obligations are fulfilled. Also, contract liabilities will be converted into revenues when it is expected that the rights are probable not to be redeemed.

3) Sale of goods

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has full discretion over the utility of the product, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer�s acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.

Accounts receivable are recognized when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the Company has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional.

4) Financing components

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

(r) Government grants

The Company recognizes an unconditional government grant related COVID-19 as reduction of expenses when the grant becomes receivable. Grants that compensate the Company for expenses or losses incurred are recognized in profit or loss in the periods in which the expenses or losses are recognized.

(s) Employee benefits

(i) Defined contribution plans

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees.

(Continued)

319

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

(ii) Defined benefit plans

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Company�s net obligation in respect of the defined benefit pension plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The fair value of any plan assets is deducted. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on market yields of government bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Company�s obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid.

The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a benefit to the Company, the recognized asset is limited to the total of the present value of economic benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. In order to calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any minimum funding requirements that apply to any plan in the Company. An economic benefit is available to the Company if it is realizable during the life of the plan, or on settlement of the plan liabilities.

When the benefits of a plan are improved the expense of the increased benefit relating to past service by employees is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability (asset), which comprise (1) actuarial gains and losses, (2) the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and (3) the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income. The Company recognizes the amounts in retained earnings.

The Company recognizes gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of a defined benefit plan when the curtailment or settlement occurs. The gain or loss on curtailment or settlement comprises any resulting change in the fair value of plan assets, any change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

(iii) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are accrued when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee. A liability is recognized when the obligation can be estimated reliably.

(t) Share-based payment

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

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

(Continued)

320

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

Grant date of a share-based payment award is the date which the board of directors authorized the Chairman of the Company to set up the exercise price.

(u) Income taxes

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

Current taxes include tax payables and tax deduction receivables on taxable gains (losses) for the year calculated using the statutory tax rate on the reporting date or the actual legislative tax rate, as well as tax adjustments related to prior years.

Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases. Deferred taxes shall not be recognized for the exceptions below:

  • (i) Assets and liabilities that are initially recognized but are not related to a business combination and have no effect on net income or taxable gains (losses) during the transaction.

  • (ii) Temporary differences arising from equity investments in subsidiaries or joint ventures where there is a high probability that such temporary differences will not reverse.

  • (iii) Initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities shall be measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities may be offset against each other if the following criteria are met:

  • (i) The Company has the legal right to settle tax assets and liabilities on a net basis; and

  • (ii) the taxing of deferred tax assets and liabilities fulfills one of the scenarios below:

  • 1) levied by the same taxing authority; or

  • 2) levied by different taxing authorities, but where each such authority intends to settle tax assets and liabilities (where such amounts are significant) on a net basis every year of the period of expected asset realization or debt liquidation, or where the timing of asset realization and debt liquidation is matched.

A deferred tax asset should be recognized for the carry forward of unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences shall also be re-evaluated at each reporting date, and adjusted based on the probability that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

(Continued)

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

(v) Earnings per share (EPS)

The Company discloses the Company�s basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company. The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the profit or loss attributable to the ordinary equity holders of the Company divided by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company, divided by the weightedaverage number of ordinary shares outstanding after adjustment for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, such as convertible bonds and employee compensation.

(w) Operating segment

The Company discloses the operating segment information in the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, the Company does not disclose the operating segment information in the parent-companyonly financial statements.

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

The preparation of the parent-company-only financial statements based on the Regulations requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Management continues to monitor the accounting estimates and assumptions. Management recognizes any changes in the accounting estimates during the period and the impact of the changes in the accounting estimates in the next year.

There is no information about critical judgments in the parent-company-only financial statements.

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment within the next year is as follow. Those assumptions and estimations have been updated to reflect the impact of COVID-19 pandemic:

(a) Contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue

For the rights of accumulated mileages that are estimated by using the fair value of the redeemable part of the customer loyalty program and, the reference to past experience of probability of redemption; please refer to note 4(q) for further details on related matter. Changes in fair value per mileage or redemption rate may have a material impact on the contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue. Also, contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue will be converted into revenues when the member actually redeems the mileage or it is expected that the rights are probable not to be redeemed; please refer to note 6(w) for estimation of contract liabilities mileage redemption revenue.

(b) Impairment of long-term non-financial assets

During the process of impairment assessment, the Company relies on subjective judgment to determine the individual cash flows of a specific group of assets, useful lives and estimates future gains and losses according to the usage of assets and business characteristics; please refer to note 4(n) for further details on related matter. Alteration of estimates from any change in economic conditions or business strategy may lead to impairment loss in the future; please refer to note 6(j) for further description of the key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount.

(Continued)

322

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

The accounting policy and disclosure of the Company include measuring the financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. The accounting department of the Company uses information of external information to make the evaluation result agreeable to the market status and to ensure that the data resources are independent, reliable and consistent with the other resources. The accounting department of the Company regularly revises the evaluation models and the input parameters, makes retrospective review and makes essential adjustments to ensure that the evaluation results is reasonable.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows.

�Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

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

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

The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.

Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in notes 6(g), 6(l) and 6(z).

(ii) Impairment test

According to IAS 36 �Impairment of assets�, the Company periodically assesses for any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset�s recoverable amount is estimated. When evaluating the recoverable amount of the CGU, the pre-tax discount rate is used to estimate the future cash flow. After performing the impairment test, the recoverable amount for the CGU turned out to be higher than its carry amounts. Therefore, there is no impairment loss to be recognized at December 31, 2020.

The recoverable amounts of CGU were evaluated, and the critical assumptions used for this evaluation were as follows:

  • 1) The cash flow period of twelve years, which was estimated on the basis of previous experience, actual operating result and management-approved financial budget.

  • 2) The estimated operating revenue, operating costs, and operating expenses based on the future operation plan, taking into consideration the changes and business competitions within the industry.

  • 3) The estimate discount rate of 3.28%.

  • (iii) Pledge

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company�s property, plant and equipment were used as pledge for long-term borrowings and lines of credit, and they are disclosed in note 8.

  • (iv) For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company capitalized the interest expenses amounted to $123,111 and $137,157, respectively. The ranges of the monthly interest rate used for capitalization calculation were 0.07%~0.10% and 0.10% 0.11%, respectively.

(iii) Retained earnings

According to the Company�s Articles of Incorporation, if the Company reports a surplus at the year end, after clearing taxes, the Company shall first offset accumulated losses (if any), then set aside 10% of the balance as the statutory surplus reserve, and set aside or reverse special surplus reserve per the provisions. After that, the Board of Directors shall propose a surplus distribution plan of the balance plus the retained earnings accrued from prior years, submit the distribution plan to the shareholders� meeting for approval, and then distribute it. The dividends can be distributed wholly or partly in cash only after a resolution has been adopted by a majority vote at a meeting of the board of directors attended by two-thirds of the total number of directors; and in addition thereto a report of such distribution shall be submitted to the shareholders� meeting.

The dividends shall be distributed in the combination of cash and stocks, provided that cash dividends shall not be less than 10% of the total amount of dividends.

1) Legal reserve

If a company has no accumulated deficit, it may, as per Article 240 and 241 of the Company Act, distribute its legal reserve, in whole or in part, for the portion in excess of 25% of the paid-in capital, by issuing new shares or cash to its original shareholders in proportion to the number of shares being held by each of them.

Similarly, a portion of undistributed prior-period earnings shall be reclassified as a special earnings reserve (which does not qualify for earnings distribution) to account for cumulative changes to other shareholders� equity pertaining to prior periods.

Basic earnings per share:
Loss attributable to ordinary equity holders
Diluted earnings per share:
Loss attributable to ordinary equity holders
Basic earnings per share:

The amount of revenue recognized for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period were $11,194,108 and $15,343,125, respectively.

The contract liabilities primarily relate to deferred recognition of revenue relating to ticket services and customer loyalty programs, for which revenue is recognized when the ticket sales for passengers and award points are redeemed or when they expire.

The major change in the balance of contract liabilities is the difference between the time frame in the performance obligation to be satisfied and the payment to be received. Other significant changes during the period are as follows:

Changes in an estimate of the transaction price

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

  • (iii)Transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the amounts allocated to the customer loyalty program were $3,671,091 and $4,044,162, respectively. These will be recognized as revenue as the customer loyalty program points are redeemed or when they expire, which are expected to occur over the next three years.

All consideration from contracts with customers is included in the transaction price presented above.

(x) Remuneration to employees and directors

According to the Company�s Articles of Incorporation, once the Company incurs profit in a fiscal year, a minimum of 1% will be distributed as employees� remuneration and a maximum of 2% will be allotted for directors� remuneration. However, if the Company has accumulated losses, the earnings shall first be offset against any deficit.

The definition of annual earnings, as described in the above-mentioned paragraph, is the Company�s profit before tax, excluding the amount of the employees�remuneration, and the directors� remuneration.

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company accrued and recognized its employees� remuneration of $0 and $284,125, respectively, and the directors� remuneration of $0 and $9,500, respectively. These remunerations were included in the operating costs and operating expenses.

The differences between the actual distributed amounts as determined by the Board of Directors and those recognized in the financial statements, if any, shall be accounted for as changes in accounting estimates and recognized in profit or loss in the following year.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company�s actual distributed amounts and recognized amounts of its employees� remuneration and directors� remuneration were both $0. There was a decrease of $113,650 between the actual amounts of remuneration to employees, and directors distributed for the year 2019 determined by the Board of Directors and the estimated amounts mainly due to the adjustment of the Board of Directors� resolution. The differences shall be accounted for as changes in accounting estimates and recognized in profit or loss for the year 2020. The related information can be found on Market Observation Post System website.

(iii) Finance costs

(z) Financial instruments

  • (i) Credit risk

  • 1) Credit risk exposure

The maximum exposure to credit risk is mainly from the carrying amount of financial assets.

2) Circumstances of concentration of credit risk

Accounts receivable were due from many customers and regional distributions were decentralized. Therefore, there was no concentration of credit risk. In order to reduce the credit risk of accounts receivable, the Company continually evaluates each customer�s financial situation and requires customers to be a member of IATA clearing house. Otherwise, the customer will have to provide bank guarantees or collaterals.

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

3) Credit risk of receivables

For credit risk exposure of notes and accounts receivable, please refer to note 6(d). Other financial assets at amortized cost includes other receivables and time deposits. For the details on loss allowance, please refer to notes 6(e) and 6(n).

All of these financial assets are considered to have low risk, and thus, the impairment provision recognized during the period was limited to 12 months expected losses. Regarding how the financial instruments are considered to have low credit risk, please refer to note 4(f).

2) Sensitivity analysis

The Company�s monetary items exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable and accounts receivable (including related parties), refundable deposits (included in other non-current assets), accounts payable (including related parties), other payables (including related parties), lease liabilities and restoration obligations (included in other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities) that are denominated in foreign currency. A strengthening (weakening) of 1% of the TWD against the USD, EUR, JPY, HKD and CNY as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, would have changed the profit (loss) before tax by $16,289 and $24,067, and the equity by $885,103 and $982,046 due to cash flow hedges, respectively. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2020 and 2019.

(Continued)

354

EVA AIRWAYS CORP.

Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

Due to the variety of the Company�s functional currency, the Company discloses its exchange gains and losses of monetary items collectively. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company�s foreign exchange gains (losses), net (including realized and unrealized of monetary items) amounted to $893,725 and $(181,235), respectively.

(iv) Interest rate risk

The interest rate exposure of the Company�s financial liabilities are illustrated in note 6(z) liquidity risk.

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the exposure to interest rate risk of the nonderivative financial instruments on the reporting date. For variable-rate instruments, the sensitivity analysis assumes the variable-rate liabilities are outstanding for the whole year on the reporting date. The Company�s internal department reported the increases/decreases in the interest rates and the exposure to changes in interest rates by 1% to the Company�s key management so as to allow key management to assess the reasonableness of the changes in the interest rates.

If the interest rate increases (decreases) by 1% with all other variable factors that remain constant, the profit (loss) before tax of the Company would have changed $917,628 and $683,182 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively due to the Company�s floating-interest borrowings.

(v) Other market price risk

If the price of the equity securities changes, and it is on the same basis for both years and assumes that all other variables remain the same, the impact on comprehensive income will be as follows:

  • (vi) Fair value

  • 1) Categories and fair values of financial instruments

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, financial instruments used for hedging, and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income is measured on a recurring basis. The carrying amount and fair value of the Company� s financial assets and liabilities, including the information on fair value hierarchy were as follows; however, except as described in the following paragraphs, for financial instruments not measured at fair value whose carrying amount is reasonably close to the fair value, and lease liabilities, disclosure of fair value information is not required:

2) Valuation techniques and assumptions used in fair value determination

  • a) Non-derivative financial instruments

The fair value of financial instruments traded in an active market is based on the quoted market prices. The quotations, which is published by the main exchange center or that which was deemed to be a public bond by the Treasury Bureau of Central Bank, is included in the fair value of the listed securities instruments and the debt instruments in active markets with open bid.

A financial instrument is regarded as being quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm�s-length basis. Whether transactions are taking place �regularly� is a matter of judgment and depends on the facts and circumstances of the market for the instrument. Quoted market prices may not be indicative of the fair value of an instrument if the activity in the market is infrequent, the market is not well-established, only small volumes are traded, or bid-ask spreads are very wide. Determining whether a market is active involves judgment.

For financial instruments traded in active markets, their fair values are listed below by types and attributes:

The stocks of publicly traded companies are financial assets which are traded in active markets under standard terms and conditions. The fair value of the abovementioned stocks is based on quoted market prices.

Measurements of fair value of financial instruments without an active market are based on a valuation technique. Fair value measured by a valuation technique can be extrapolated from the fair value of similar financial instruments, the discounted cash flow method, or other valuation technique.

(Continued)

357

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

For financial instruments not traded in active markets, their fair values are listed below by types and attributes:

Equity instruments with no quoted market prices: the Company takes the quote market prices and the price-book ratios of similar publicly traded companies into consideration by using the market comparison approach. The estimates had been adjusted by the depreciation from lack of market liquidity.

b) Derivative financial instruments

Measurement of the fair value of derivative instruments is based on the valuation techniques generally accepted by market participants such as the discounted cash flow and option pricing models. Fair value of forward currency is usually determined by the forward currency exchange rate.

  • 3) Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the fair value hierarchy levels of financial instruments were not transferred.

  • 4) Movements in fair value measurements of financial assets in Level 3

The following table shows the reconciliation from the beginning balance to the ending balances for fair value measurements in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

Balance as of January 1, 2020
Total gains or losses:

  • 5) Quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3

The Company classified a partial of its financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income investment in equity securities that do not have a quoted market price in an active market as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Most of the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 use the significant unobservable inputs. The significant unobservable inputs are independent to each other.

The significant unobservable inputs were as follows:

Items
Financial assets at
fair value through
other comprehensive
income
Valuation
techniques
Market approach�
relevant information
generated by publicly
companies
Significant unobservable inputs
Relationship between significant
unobservable inputs and fair

31, 2020 and 2019 were
0.80~3.46 and 0.80~2.62,
respectively)
Market liquidity discount rate (as
of December 31, 2020 and 2019
were 80% of market price)
The higher the price-book ratio,
the higher the fair value
The higher the market liquidity
discount rate, the lower the fair
value
  • 6) Sensitivity analysis for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy

The fair value measurements of the Company�s financial instruments are reasonable. However, changes in the use of valuation models or valuation variables may affect the estimations. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, for fair value measurements in Level 3, a fluctuation in the valuation variable by 5% would have the following effects:

The favorable and unfavorable effects represent the changes in fair value, and fair value is based on a variety of unobservable inputs calculated using a valuation technique. The analysis above only reflects the effects of changes in a single input, and it does not include the inter-relationships with another input.

EVA AIRWAYS CORP.

Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

  • (aa) Management of financial risk

  • (i) The Company is exposed to the nature and extent of the risks arising from financial instruments as below:

    • 1) Credit risk

    • 2) Liquidity risk

    • 3) Market risk

Detailed information about exposure risk arising from the aforementioned risk and the Company�s objective, policies and process for managing risks have been stated below. Further quantitative disclosures have been disclosed as notes to the financial statements.

  • (ii) Risk management framework

The Company�s Board of Directors has responsibility for the oversight of the risk management framework. The Company�s inter-department management and committee, which consists of managers from all departments, is responsible for monitoring the Company�s risk management policies and reports regularly to the Board of Directors on its activities.

The Company�s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. The inter-department management and committee are reviewed regularly to reflect change in market conditions and the Company�s activities. The Company, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.

The Company�s Audit Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Company�s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risk faced by the Company. The Company�s Audit Committee is assisted in its oversight role by the internal auditor. The internal auditor reviews the risk controls and procedures, and reports the results on a regular or irregular basis to the Audit Committee.

  • (iii) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to financial instruments fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company�s receivables from customers and investments in securities.

1) Notes and accounts receivable

The Company�s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer. In accordance with the Company�s credit policy, each customer is analyzed individually for creditworthiness, and is required to be a member of IATA clearing house. Otherwise, the customer will have to provide bank guarantees or collaterals before its credit terms and credit limit are offered. Credit limit is offered to each customer as the limit of transactions and is reviewed regularly.

(Continued)

360

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

The transaction amount of the majority of the Company�s customers is not significant, leading to an insignificant influence of loss from credit risk arising from single customer on the Company. The Company set up the forward-looking �expected credit loss� model to reflect the estimated impairment loss of notes and accounts receivable.

2) Investments

The credit risk exposure in the bank deposits, fixed income investments and other equity instruments are measured and monitored by the Company�s finance department. Since the Company�s transactions are with external parties with good credit standing, highly rated financial institutions, publicly traded stock companies and unlisted companies with good reputation, there are no non-compliance issues and therefore no significant credit risk.

3) Guarantees

As of December 31, 2020, the Company did not provide endorsements and guarantees.

(iv) Liquidity risk

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

The Company�s finance department monitors the needs for cash flows, and plans optional return from investments of idle capital. The Company aims to maintain the level of its cash and cash equivalents at an amount to cope with expected cash outflows on operation, including meeting its financial obligations. This excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters.

(v) Market risk

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

1) Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of the Company, primarily the TWD. The currencies used in these transactions are principally denominated in TWD, CNY, EUR, USD, and JPY.

(Continued)

361

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

The Company hedges its cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables from sales, trade payables to purchase and leases payments for aircraft denominated in a foreign currency. When necessary, the Company uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its currency risk. The financial department proactively collects information of currency to monitor the trend of currency rate and keeps connection with the foreign currency department of banks to collect the market information for securing the currency risk.

The Company determines the existence of an economic relationship between the hedging instruments and hedged item based on the currency, amount and timing of their respective cash flows. The Company assesses whether the derivative designated in each hedging relationship is expected to be and has been effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item using the hypothetical derivative method. For hedging foreign currency risk on the cash flow of aviation transportation with a highly probable forecast transaction, the foreign currency risk component of a non-derivative financial asset or a non-derivative financial liability may be designated as a hedging instrument provided.

In these hedge relationships, the main sources of ineffectiveness are

the effect of the counterparty and the Company�s own credit risk on the fair value of the forward foreign exchange contracts, which is not reflected in the change in the fair value of the hedged cash flows attributable to the change in exchange rates; and

changes in the timing of the hedged transactions.

  • 2) Interest rate risk

The Company adopts a policy of ensuring that its exposure to changes in interest rates on borrowings is on a fixed-rate basis, taking into account assets with exposure to changes in interest rates. This is achieved partly by entering into fixed-rate instruments and partly by borrowing at a floating rate and using interest rate swaps as hedges of variability in cash flows attributable to movements in interest rates.

The Company determines the existence of an economic relationship between the hedging instrument and hedged item based on the reference interest rates, tenors, reprising dates and maturities and the notional or par amounts. The Company assesses whether the derivative designated in each hedging relationship is expected to be effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item using the hypothetical derivative method.

In these hedge relationships, the main sources of ineffectiveness are

the effect of the counterparty and the Company�s own credit risk on the fair value of the swaps which is not reflected in the change in the fair value of the hedged cash flows attributable to the change in interest rates; and

differences in reprising dates between the swaps and the borrowings.

(Continued)

362

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to the Parent-Company-Only Financial Statements

  • 3) Other market price risk

The Company is exposed to equity price risk due to the investments in equity securities. This is a strategic investment and is not held for trading. The management of the Company monitors the combination of equity securities and open-market funds in its investment portfolio based on cash flow requirements. Material investments within the portfolio are managed on an individual basis, and all buy-and-sell decisions are approved by the Board of Directors.

  • (ab) Capital management

The Board of Directors� policy is to maintain a strong capital base to maintain the confidence of investors, creditors, and the market and to sustain future development of the business. The Board of Directors monitors the level of dividends to ordinary equity holders as well as future operation of the business.

The capital structure of the Company consists of net debt and equity. The net debt from the balance sheet is derived from the total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. The total capital includes equity (ordinary share, capital surplus, retained earnings and other equity) and net debt.

As of December 31, 2020, there were no changes in the Company�s approach to capital management.

  • (ac) Financing activities not affecting current cash flow

The Company�s financing activities which did not affect the current cash flow in the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, were as follows:

Bonds payable
Long-term borrowings
Lease liabilities and financial
liabilities for hedging
