Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Everest Textile Co., Ltd.

Audit Opinion

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Everest Textile Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity, consolidated statements of cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other independent auditors (refer to the Other Matters section of our report), the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 in accordance with the "Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers" and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC) and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and kissed into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) of ROC.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the "Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants" and auditing standards generally accepted in the ROC. 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 Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the ROC, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matters

As stated in Note 29 of the consolidated financial statements, a fire accident occurred at the warehouse of Tainan factory of the Company on March 15, 2022. Our opinion was not modified in respect of the matter emphasized.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance

  • 4 -

in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2021. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

The descriptions of the key audit matters of the Group’ financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, are as follows:

As stated in Note 4(k) Income Recognition and Note 20 Revenue of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Group is mainly engaged in the manufacturing and sales of various textiles such as chemical fibers, cotton and blended fabrics. The sales revenue of filament fabric of the Company has a significant impact on the overall operating income and profit of the Group, and therefore we have identified the authenticity of the sales revenue of filament fabric from specific customers of the Company as a key audit matter.

With respect to the key audit matter mentioned above, we performed the following audit procedures:

  • I. We reviewed the relevant internal control mechanism and operating procedures of sales transaction cycle and designed the internal control audit procedures accordingly to assess the effectiveness of the internal control operations.

  • II. We conducted sample checking on the sales revenue of filament fabric from the Company's specific customers and checked the shipping documents, customs documents and payment documents in order to verify the the recognition and payment status of its revenue as well as confirm the authenticity of the sales transactions.

Other Matters

Regarding the subsidiaries included in the Group’s consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of Everest Textile (Thailand) Co., Ltd., Everest USA Holdings, Inc., Everest Development USA, LLC., and Everest Textile USA, LLC for the year ended December 31, 2021 were audited by other auditors. In addition, the financial statements of Everest Textile (Thailand) Co., Ltd., Everest Apparel (Ethiopia) S.C., Everest Apparel (Haiti) S.A., Everest USA Holdings, Inc., Everest Development USA, LLC., and Everest Textile USA, LLC for the year ended December 31, 2020 were also audited by other auditors. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the total assets of the above subsidiaries were NT$2,686,915 thousand and NT$4,047,433 thousand, respectively, accounted for 18% and 30% of the consolidated total assets. The net operating revenue was NT$1,240,991 thousand and NT$1,374,211 thousand, respectively, accounted for 12% and 19% of the net consolidated operating revenue for the years ended December 31, 2021

  • 5 -

and 2020, respectively.

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Everest Textile Co., Ltd. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, on which we have issued an unqualified opinion with the sections of Emphasis of Matters and Other Matters for the year ended December 31, 2021, and an unqualified opinion with the section of Other Matters for the year ended December 31, 2020.

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 IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC of the ROC and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the 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 related matters, and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the 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.

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 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 ROC will always detect a material misstatement in the consolidated financial statements when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. If it could have been reasonably anticipated that misstated amounts, individually or in aggregate, could have influenced the economic decisions made by the users of the Consolidated Financial Statements, it will be deemed as material.

As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the ROC, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: I. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements,

  • 6 -

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.

  • II. 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.

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

  • IV. 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.

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

  • VI. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or businesses 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 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 provided those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may be thought to bear on our independence (including relevant preventive measures).

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determined key audit

  • 7 -

matters of the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2021. We describe these matters in our auditor's 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 communications.

IV. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(I) Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs endorsed and issued into effect by FSC.

  • (II) Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value, and net defined benefit liabilities which are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets.

The fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and the significance of relevant inputs:

  1. Level 1 input: Refer to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities on the measurement date (unadjusted).

  2. Level 2 input: Refer to observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., prices) or indirectly (i.e., deduced from prices).

  3. Level 3 input: Refer to unobservable inputs for asset or liability.

  4. (III) Standards for the classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities Current assets include:

  5. Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  6. Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting period; and

  7. Cash (excluding those being restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period).

Current liabilities include:

  1. Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  2. Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; and

  3. Liabilities for which the settlement may not be unconditionally deferred for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as noncurrent.

  • (IV) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company (i.e., subsidiaries). Adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to align their accounting policies with those used by the Group. All intra-group transactions, account balances, income, and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation. The total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to owners of the Company and non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

See Note 11 and Tables 6 and 7 for details on subsidiaries, shareholding, and scope of business.

  • 17 -

  • (V) Foreign currencies

In preparing the financial statements of the Company, transactions in currencies other than the Company's functional currency (i.e., foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising from the retranslation of nonmonetary items are included in profit or loss for the period, except for the changes in the fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss), in which cases, the exchange differences arising thereof are also recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss).

Non-monetary items measured at historical costs that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate on the date of the transaction without re-translation.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, assets and liabilities of overseas operating institutions (including subsidiaries in other countries that have or use currencies that are different from that of the Company) are translated into the New Taiwan dollar at exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss).

  • (VI) Inventories

  • Inventories consist of raw materials, supplies, finished goods, and work in progress. Inventory is measured by the lower of cost and net realizable value. When comparing cost and net realizable value, except for similar stock in hand, it is based on individual items. The net realizable value refers to the balance of the estimated selling price in normal circumstances after deducting the estimated cost required till completion and the estimated cost to complete the sale. The weighted-average method is adopted for the calculation of inventory costs.

  • (VII) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are recognized at cost, and are subsequently measured at costs less accumulated depreciation.

  • Property, plant and equipment under construction are recognized at costs less accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes professional fees and borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. Such assets are classified into the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment and depreciated when they are completed and ready for their intended use.

  • Property, plant and equipment are recognized using the straight-line method during its useful life. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The Group reviews estimated useful lives, residual values, and depreciation methods at the

  • 18 -

end of each year, with the effects of any changes in the estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.

On derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the net consideration from the disposal and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

(VIII) Impairment of property, plant and equipment, and right-of-use assets At the end of each reporting period, the Group determines whether there is any indication that property, plant and equipment, and right-of-use assets have suffered any impairment loss. If any impairment indication exists, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. When it is impossible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less selling costs and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit shall be reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss.

When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit shall be increased to the revised recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss. (IX) Financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Upon initial recognition, apart from financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value, plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately as profit or loss.

  1. Financial assets

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

  3. (1) Measurement categories

Financial assets held by the Group are classified into financial assets at amortized cost and investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

  • A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured

  • 19 -

at fair value, and its gain or loss arising from re-measurement are recognized in other gain and loss. Please refer to Note 25 for the methods to determine fair values.

  • B. Financial assets at amortized cost

When the Group's investments in financial assets fulfill the following conditions at the same time, the investment shall be categorized as financial assets at amortized cost:

  • a. Held under a certain business model, and the purpose of the model is holding such financial assets to collect the contractual cash flows; and

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

After initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost (including cash, receivables at amortized cost, other receivables, and refundable deposits (stated as other non-current assets)) are measured at the gross carrying amount determined through the effective interest method less amortized costs of any impairment losses. Any exchange gain or loss of foreign currencies is recognized in profit or loss.

Interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate by the gross carrying amount of the financial assets. Credit-impaired financial assets are those where the issuer or debtor has experienced major financial difficulties or defaults, and the debtor is likely to claim bankruptcy or other financial restructurings, or disappearance of an active market for the financial asset due to financial difficulties.

  • C. Investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

  • Upon initial recognition, the Group may make an irrevocable election to designate the investments in equity instruments that are neither held for trading nor contingent consideration recognized a business acquisition to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

  • Investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value, and any subsequent changes in the fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to profit or loss upon their disposal; instead, they will be directly transferred to retained earnings.

Dividends of investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognized in profit or loss when the Group's right to receive payment is

  • 20 -

established, unless such dividends clearly represent the recovery of a part of the investment cost.

  • (2) Impairment of financial assets

  • At the end of each reporting period, the Group evaluates the impairment loss of financial assets at amortized cost (including trade receivables) based on the expected credit loss.

  • Loss allowances are recognized against trade receivables based on the lifetime expected credit loss. For other financial instruments, the Group recognizes their loss allowance at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses if their credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition, or otherwise, their lifetime expected credit losses.

An expected credit loss is a weighted-average credit loss with the risks of default as weights. The 12-month expected credit loss on a financial instrument represents the portion of its lifetime expected credit loss that is expected to result from possible default events within 12 months after the end of the reporting period, whereas the lifetime expected credit loss represents the expected credit loss that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. For the purpose of internal credit risk management, the Group deems the occurrence of the following conditions as a default on financial assets, without considering the collateral held:

  • A. There is any internal or external information indicating that it is impossible for the debtor to settle the debt.

  • B. Where the account ages more than 365 days, unless there is any reasonable and authenticated information indicating that the deferred default basis is more appropriate.

  • The impairment loss of all financial assets is reduced based on the allowance account.

  • (3) Derecognition of financial assets

  • The Group derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when the financial asset is transferred, and nearly all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset are transferred to other entities.

On derecognition of financial assets at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between its carrying amount and the consideration received is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income its entirety, the cumulative gain or loss is directly transferred to retained earnings, instead of reclassifying as profit or loss.

  1. Financial liabilities

  2. (1) Subsequent measurement

All financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

  • 21 -

(2) Derecognition of financial liabilities

On derecognition of financial liabilities, the differences between its carrying amount and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, are recognized as profit or loss.

  1. Derivative instruments The derivatives into which the Group entered include forward exchange contract to manage the foreign exchange rate risk of the Group.

    • Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value upon entering into a derivative contract, and are subsequently remeasured at fair value at the balance sheet date. Gains or losses arising from the subsequent measurement are recognized directly in profit or loss. However, for derivatives that are designated as effective hedging instruments, the timing of their recognition in profit or loss will depend on the nature of the hedging relationship. When its fair value is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; when its fair value is negative, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.
  2. (X) Treasury shares

  3. The Company's shares held by subsidiaries are stated at cost and shown as a deduction in equity attributable to owners of the Company.

  4. (XI) Income recognition

  5. The Group allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation after the customer had identified the performance obligations and recognizes its income upon the fulfillment of each performance obligation.

  6. Sales of goods are generated from the sales of textiles, raw materials for yards, and garments. Upon the fulfillment of trading conditions for textiles, raw materials for yards, and garments, the customer has the right to the pricing and use of the commodities, assumes the primary responsibility of re-sale, and bears the risk of obsolescence; the Group recognizes its income and trade receivables at such time.

For processing subcontract, the control over the ownership of the processing products is not transferred; therefore, the Company does not recognize the income thereof.

  • (XII) Lease The Group evaluates whether a contract is (or includes) a lease on the contract establishment date.

  • Except for lease payment of low-value assets lease and short-term leases to which exemption is applicable are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term, other leases are recognized as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the lease's starting date.

Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation, and adjusted for any remeasurements of the lease liability. Right-of-use assets are separately presented in the consolidated balance sheets.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the period from

  • 22 -

the lease commencement date to the end of its useful lives, or to the end of the lease term, whichever is earlier.

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of lease payments. When the interest rate implicit in a lease can be easily determined, lease payments are discounted using the interest rate. If the interest rate cannot be easily determined, lease payments are discounted using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate.

Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, and interest expenses are amortized over the lease term.

  • (XIII) Government grants

  • Government grants are only recognized when they can be reasonably assured that the Group would comply with the conditions imposed for the government grants and that such grants can be received.

Government grants related to revenue are recognized in other income on a systematic basis during the period when the Group recognizes the relevant costs that such grants are intended to compensate as expenses.

If the government grants are used to compensate fees or losses that had occurred, or are given to the Group for the purpose of immediate financial support without related future costs, such grants may be recognized in profit or loss within the collectible period.

  • (XIV) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to an acquisition, construction, or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of such assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their capital expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.

Other than those stated above, all other borrowing costs are recognized as profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

  • (XV) Employee benefits

  • Short-term employee benefits Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the non-discounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the employees' services.

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

Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest, and remeasurement) under defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service cost (including current service cost) and net interest on the net defined benefit liabilities are recognized as employee benefits expenses upon occurrence. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains or losses and the return on plan

  • 23 -

assets (net of interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) upon occurrence, and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.

Net defined benefit liabilities represent the appropriation deficit in the defined benefit plans.

  • (XVI) Income tax

The income tax expense represents the sum of the current income tax and deferred tax.

  1. Current income tax

  2. The Group determines its current income (losses) according to the regulations established by the governing authority of each income tax reporting region and calculates the income tax payable (recoverable) accordingly.

According to the Income Tax Law of the ROC, an additional tax of unappropriated earnings is recognized in the year the shareholders approve to retain earnings.

Adjustments to the income tax payables in prior years are accounted for as the current income tax.

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

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all temporary taxable differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all temporary deductible differences and unused loss carryforwards to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those temporary deductible differences can be utilized.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for temporary taxable differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference, and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from temporary deductible differences associated with such investments are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences, and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

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

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liabilities are settled, or the

  • 24 -

assets are realized. Such tax rate is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences arising from the manner in which the Company expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period.

  3. Current and deferred income taxes

     - Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred income taxes are recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) or directly in equity, respectively.
  • V. Critical Accounting Judgments and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

  • When adopting the Group's accounting policies, the management is required to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions for relevant information that are not readily apparent from other sources based on historical experiences and other related factors. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The Group has included the recent developments in our country and possible impact on the economic environment caused by COVID-19 into the considerations for significant accounting estimates, such as cash flow forecast, growth rate, discount rate, profitability, etc. The management will review the estimates and basic assumptions on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised if the revisions affect only that period or in the period of the revisions and future periods if the revisions affect both current and future periods.

The Group had no critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty of the Group were inventory obsolescence losses for the year ended December 31, 2020, and the details are as follows:

The obsolescence status of inventories is evaluated according to their aging status, and the ratio for providing the impairment amount is estimated based on historical experiences, to serve as the basis for evaluating inventory obsolescence losses. Significant losses may occur when the actual inventory impairment in the future is higher than expected.

VII. Financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss

December 31, 2021

Financial assets - current Held-for-trading Derivatives (not designated for hedging) Forward exchange $ 5,062 contracts Financial liabilities - current Held-for-trading Derivatives (not designated for hedging) Forward exchange $ 22 contracts

The forward exchange contracts not applicable to hedge accounting and have not yet expired on the balance sheet date are as follows:

Contractual amount December 31, 2021 Currency Maturity Date (NT$ in thousands) Purchase of forward 2022.01.11 exchange contracts RMB:USD 2022.06.28 RMB 103,809/USD 16,000

For the year ended December 31, 2021, the purpose of the Group's forward exchange transactions is mainly to avoid the risk of foreign currency assets and liabilities arising from exchange rate fluctuations. However, it does not meet the conditions for effective hedging so hedging accounting is not applicable.

From January 1 to December 31, 2021, the valuation gain on financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss was NT$5,985 thousand, recorded under other gain and loss in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

The Group invests in ordinary shares of Far Eastern International Bank Co., Ltd., Jin Lead Industrial Co., Ltd., and Dah Chung Bills Finance Corp. according to its strategic objectives and expects to earn profits from the strategic investments. The management of the Group elected to designate these investments to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income as they believed that recognizing short-term fluctuations in these investments' fair value in profit or loss would not be consistent with the aforementioned strategic investment plan.

The Group's average credit period for sales of goods is 30 to 180 days. Interest does not accrue for trade receivables. To mitigate credit risks, the management of the Group has assigned a delegated team to be responsible for the determination of credit facilities, loan approval, and other monitoring procedures to ensure that appropriate actions are adopted for the recovery of overdue trade receivables. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of trade receivables on a case-by-case basis at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate allowance for impairment losses are made for the irrecoverable trade receivables. In this regard, the management of the Group believes that the Group's credit risk has been significantly reduced.

The Group recognizes the allowance for losses of trade receivables based on the lifetime expected credit loss. Lifetime expected credit loss is calculated based on a provision matrix, taking into account the customer's past default records and its current financial conditions. As the Group's historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer bases, customer bases are not further distinguished for the provision matrix, and the Group stipulates the rate of expected credit loss merely based on the number of days past due regarding the trade receivables.

The Group writes-off trade receivables when there is evidence indicating that the counterparty is experiencing severe financial difficulty and the Group has no recoverable amount that is reasonably expected, such as liquidation undergoing by the counterparty. However, the Company will continue to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due.

  • 27 -

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, according to the analysis based on the number of days past due conducted by the Group, notes receivables are not overdue; therefore, no expected credit loss is provided for note receivables.

The Group's allowances for loss of trade receivables measured based on the provisional matrix are as follows:

XVIII. Retirement Benefit Plans

(I) Defined contribution plans

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

Employees of the Group's subsidiaries in China, Thailand, Hong Kong, the U.S., Ethiopia, and Haiti are the participants of the retirement benefit plans operated by local governments. The subsidiaries shall allocate salary costs at a particular ratio to the retirement benefit plans to provide funds for the plans. The obligation

of the Group regarding the retirement benefit plans operated by such governments is limited to the allocation of a particular amount.

(II) Defined benefit plans

The pension system adopted by the Group in accordance with the "Labor Standards Act" is a defined benefit plan operated by the government. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries for the six months before retirement. The Company contributes amounts

  • 34 -

equal to 4% of total monthly salaries to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee's name. Before the end of each year, the Company assesses the balance in the pension fund. If the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Company is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor, and the Company has no right to affect the investment management policy and strategy.

The amounts included in the consolidated balance sheets in respect of the defined benefit plans are set out as follows:

The Company is exposed to the following risks due to the defined benefit plans under the "Labor Standards Law":

  1. Investment risk: The labor pension funds are invested in domestic and foreign equity and debt securities, bank deposits, and other targets. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor, or through its designated agencies. However, the rate of return on plan assets of the Group shall not be less than the interest rate on a two-year time deposit published by the local banks.

  2. 36 -

  3. Interest rate risk: A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, the debt investment returns on the plan assets would also increase accordingly, and both items have the effect of offsetting the effects of net defined benefit liabilities.

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

The actuarial valuations for the present value of the Company's defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The significant assumptions on the date of measurement are as follows:

Discount rate
Expected growth rate of
salary
December 31, 2021
0.75%
1.00%
December 31, 2020
0.35%
1.00%

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

Discount rate
Increase by 0.25%
Decrease by 0.25%
Expected growth rate of

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation, as it is unlikely that changes in any of the assumptions would occur in isolation of one another for the reason that the assumptions may be correlated.

Note: Such capital surplus may be used to offset a deficit. In addition, when the Company has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to share capital, but only at a certain percentage of the Company's capital surplus and once a year.

(III) Retained earnings and dividend policy

Under the dividend policy as set forth in the Company's Articles of Incorporation

  • 38 -

(the "Articles"), where the Company made profits in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for paying taxes, offsetting losses of previous years, setting aside as legal reserve 10% of the remaining profit, setting aside or reversing a special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any unappropriated earnings from the previous year shall be used as earnings available for appropriation. Such earnings shall be distributed as shareholders' dividends equally based on the number of all shares, provided that a portion of such earning may be retained in accordance with the business conditions. However, in case of capital increases, the incremental shares shall be appropriated in accordance with the respective resolution made in the shareholders' meetings. For the Company's policies on the distribution of employees' compensation and remuneration of directors, refer to Note 21(8) "Employees' compensation and remuneration of directors and supervisors."

The Company appropriates dividends according to a stable dividend distribution while taking into account the features of economic changes regarding its business, the effects of products or services, in terms of their lifecycle, and taxation on its future cash demands. Except for capital demands such as improving the financial structure and providing for the reinvestment, expansion of production capacity, or other significant capital expenditure, the distribution of dividends shall be no less than 50% of the balances equal to the net profit after income tax for the year less amounts offsetting deficits, legal reserve, and special reserve. The cash dividends shall be no less than10% of the current shareholders' bonuses for the year.

The legal reserve shall be appropriated until its balances reach the total paid-in capital of the Company. The legal reserve may be used to offset deficits. If the Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Company's total paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital and distributed in cash.

The Company's appropriations of deficit for 2020 and 2019 were approved at the shareholders' meetings on May 4, 2021 and June 15, 2020, respectively.

The Company's resolution on earnings distribution for 2021 approved by the Board of Directors on March 3, 2022 is as follows:

If the Company has the option to issue the employee bonus in stocks or cash when calculating the diluted earnings (net loss) per share, it is assumed that the employee bonus will adopt the method of issuing shares, and the weighted average number of outstanding shares will be included in the calculation of diluted earnings (net loss) per share when the potential ordinary shares are diluted. While calculating diluted earnings (net loss) per share before distributing shares to employees as compensations in the following year, dilutive effects of such potential ordinary shares should still be considered.

XXIV. Capital management

The Company requires sufficient amounts of capital for the expansion and upgrades of its production facilities and equipment. The Company manages its capital in a manner to ensure that it has sufficient and necessary financial resources and operating plan to provide for its working capital, capital expenditures, research and development expenses, debt repayment, and dividend payments required in the future.

XXV. Financial instruments

  • (I) Fair value information - Fair value of financial instruments not measured at fair value

  • The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments that are not measured at fair value approximate their fair values; these financial instruments include cash, receivables, other receivables, refundable deposits (accounted for as other non-current assets), short-term borrowings, short-term bills payable, payables (including those to related parties), other payables (including those to related parties), long-term borrowings (including those due within one year), and guarantee deposits received.

  • (IV) Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Group’s major financial instruments include investments in equity and debt instruments, trade receivables, trade payables, borrowings, and lease liabilities. The Group's Corporate Treasury function provides services to all business departments, coordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal risk reports, which analyze exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, and other price risks), credit risk, and liquidity risk.

Material treasury activities of the Group are reviewed by the Board in accordance with relevant regulations and internal control systems. Compliance with policies and exposure limits is reviewed by the internal auditors on a continuous basis. The Group did not perform any financial instruments (including derivative financial instruments) transaction for speculative purposes.

  • 50 -

1. Market risk

The Group's operating activities exposed itself primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (i) below), interest rates (see (ii) below), and other price risks (see (iii) below).

There was no change to the Group's exposure to market risks or the manner in which these risks were managed and measured.

  • (1) Foreign currency risk

The Group engages in sales and purchases denominated in foreign currencies, which exposed the Group to the risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

The carrying amounts of monetary assets and monetary liabilities including monetary items not denominated in the functional currency being written-off in the consolidated financial statements not denominated in the functional currency of the Group at the end of the reporting period are set out in Note 30.

Sensitivity analysis

The Group is mainly exposed to the fluctuation of the United States dollar (USD) and Thai Baht (THB). In addition, certain subsidiaries (whose functional currency is not NT$) are affected by the fluctuation in NTD.

The following table details the Group's sensitivity to a 1% increase and decrease in NT$ (the functional currency) against the relevant foreign currencies. The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding monetary items denominated in foreign currencies, and their translations at the end of the year are adjusted at 1% of changes in the exchange rate. A positive number in the table below indicates an increase (decrease) in net profit (loss) before income tax that would result when the functional currency weakens 1% against the relevant currency. For a 1% strengthening of NTD against the relevant currency, the effect on the net profit (loss) before income tax would be the same amount in negative.

In the management's opinion, the sensitivity analysis was unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk as the exposure at the end of the reporting period is unable to reflect the exposure during the period. Furthermore, trade receivables and other receivables not denominated in the functional currency would change in accordance with the working capital.

(2) Interest rate risk

The Group was exposed to interest rate risk as it borrows funds at both fixed and floating interest rates concurrently. The risk is managed by the Group by maintaining an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate borrowings.

The carrying amount of the Group's financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period was as follows:

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the Group's exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis assumed that the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding throughout the reporting period.

If interest rates had been 1% higher and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s net profit (losses) before income tax for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 would have decreased (increased)/inceased (decreased) by NT$27,707 thousand and NT$44,921 thousand, respectively, which primarily relates to the Group's floating rate borrowings.

(3) Other price risks

The Group was exposed to equity price risk due to its investments in shares. The Group manages such exposure by maintaining a portfolio of investments with different risks and through asset allocation. Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis below was conducted based on the Group’s exposure to equity price risk at the end of the reporting period. If

  • 52 -

equity prices had been 1% higher/lower, other comprehensive income/(loss) before income tax for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 would have increased/decreased by NT$850 thousand and NT$842 thousand, respectively, as a result of the changes in the fair values of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income.

  1. Credit risk

  2. Credit risk refers to the risk where the counterparty is having any default on its contractual obligations that results in financial losses to the Group. At the end of the reporting period, the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk due to the failure of counterparties to discharge its obligations is primarily arising from the carrying amount of financial assets recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

Counterparties for trade receivables involve diverse customers who locate in different geographical regions. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed on the financial conditions of customers with whom the Group has trade receivables.

  1. Liquidity risk

The Group manages and maintains sufficient cash to finance the Group's operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, the Group's management monitors the utilization of bank facilities and ensures compliance with the borrowings' contract terms.

The Group's working capital and the bank facilities acquired are sufficient to meet its demand for future operations; therefore, there is no liquidity risk relating to the incapability of raising funds for performing contractual obligations.

  • (1) Liquidity and interest rate risk table for derivative financial liabilities The analysis of remaining contractual maturity for the Group's nonderivative financial liabilities was drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities (including principals and estimated interests) from the earliest date on which the Group can be required to make the repayment. Specifically, the Group's bank borrowings with repayment on demand clause are included in the earliest time band regardless of the probability of the banks choosing to exercise their rights immediately. The analysis of maturity dates for other nonderivative financial liabilities is based on the agreed repayment dates. The amount of undiscounted interests relating to cash flow paid from floating rate payments is extrapolated based on the interest rate yield curve at the end of the reporting period.
