Independent Auditor's Report

To the Board of Directors of Evertop Wire Cable Corporation

Audit opinions

We have audited the accompanying parent company only financial statements of EVERTOP WIRE CABLE CORPORATION (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheets from January 1 to December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows from January 1 to December 31, 2025 and 2024, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the accompanying parent company only financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its parent company only financial performance and its parent company only cash flows as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 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 Regulation Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Unconsolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants of the R.O.C. and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

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

~3~


I. Inventory Valuation

Description of Key Audit Matters:

For a description of accounting policies on valuation of inventories, please refer to Note 4(7), and for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions in relation to valuation of inventories, please refer to Note 5. For details of inventories and related expenses, please refer to Note 6(6) of the accompanying parent company only financial statements.

The inventory of the Company includes copper plates, cooper wires, and various wire and cable finished products. The value of such inventory continues to be affected by the international copper price fluctuation, such that there is a risk of inventory cost exceeding its net realizable value. Accordingly, inventory is determined to be significant to the parent company only financial statements, and we have listed it as a key audit matter.

Corresponding Audit Procedures:

The main audit procedure adopted by the auditors of our firm for the aforementioned key audit matters includes: Understanding the Company's policy on allowance for inventory valuation loss, and assessing whether its inventory valuation has been executed according to the predefined accounting policy; performing the sampling procedure to inspect whether the source of the inventory realization value calculation is reasonable; analyzing the inventory age condition to understand the salability of inventory of relatively longer period and the basis for the calculation of its realizable value; reviewing the reasonableness of the allowance for inventory obsolescence adopted in the past, in order to assess whether the allowance for the inventory obsolescence method and assumption adopted in the current period are appropriate; reviewing the post-period international copper price fluctuation condition and the post-period actual sales condition of inventory, in order to assess the reasonableness of the allowance for inventory valuation estimates.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged With Governance for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements

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

In preparing the parent company only financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to being a going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the 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.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the unconsolidated 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. The term of “reasonable assurance” refers to high level of assurance. Nevertheless, the audit performed according to the auditing standards cannot guarantee the discovery of material misstatement in the unconsolidated financial statements. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements 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 the unconsolidated financial statements.

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

  1. Identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of the unconsolidated financial statements due to fraud or error, design and adopt appropriate countermeasures for the risks assessed, and obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence in order to be used as the basis for the 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 internal control of the Company.

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

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of the 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 ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In case where we consider that such events or circumstances have a material uncertainty, then relevant disclosure of the unconsolidated financial statements are required to be provided in our audit report to allow users of unconsolidated financial statements to be aware of such events or circumstances, 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 auditor’s 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 unconsolidated financial statements, including relevant notes, and whether the unconsolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

~ 3-2 ~


  1. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of investees under the equity method, and expressing an opinion on parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the audit of the Company. 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 the governance units with statements that we have complied with relevant matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and we have also communicated with the governance units on all relationships and other matters (including relevant protective measures) that may be considered to affect the independence of auditors.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 and are therefore the key audit matters. 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 communication.

Notes to Unconsolidated Financial Statements

2025 and 2024

(In NT$ thousands, unless stated otherwise)

I Company History

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation (hereinafter referred to as “the Company”) was established on March 21, 1988 with the approval of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and its registered office is located at 1F, No. 1, Lane 91, Section 2, Renai Road, Taipei City, Taiwan. The Company is engaged in the manufacture, processing, sale, and installation of bare cooper wires, tinned wires, power cables, computer cables, insulated wires, coaxial cables, PVC wire cables, XLPE high and low voltage power cables, telecommunication cables, fiber optic cables, and rubber cables.

II Approval Date and Procedures of the Consolidated Financial Statements

These parent company only financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on March 10, 2026.

III Application of New Standards, Amendments and Interpretations

(I) The impact of the new standards, amendments and interpretations endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, R.O.C. (“FSC”) which have already been adopted:

The Company has initially adopted the following new IFRS amendments, which do not have a significant impact on its parent company only financial statements, from January 1, 2025.

  • Amendments to IAS No. 21 "Lack of Exchangeability"
  • Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments, regarding the application guidance on Section 4.1 of IFRS 9 and the related disclosure requirements of IFRS 7.

(II) The impact of IFRS endorsed by the FSC but not yet effective:

The Company assesses that the adoption of the following IFRS new amendments, effective for the annual period beginning on January 1, 2026, would not have a significant impact on its parent company only financial statements.

  • IFRS 17 "Insurance Contracts" and amendments to IFRS 17 "Insurance Contracts".
  • Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 "Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments", regarding the application guidance on Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of IFRS 9 and the related disclosure requirements of IFRS 7.
  • Annual Improvements to IFRS/IAS
  • Amendments to IFRS 9 and amendment to IFRS 7 "Nature-Dependent Electricity Contracts".

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

(III) The impact of new standards, amendments and interpretations 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:

New or Amended Standards Content of Amendment Effective Date Issued by the IASB
IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements”. The new standards introduce three categories of income and expenses, two subtotals in the statement of profit or loss, and a single note dedicated to management performance measures. These three amendments enhance the guidance on how information is disaggregated in financial statements, laying the foundation for providing users with better and more consistent information, and will affect all companies.

• A more structured statement of profit or loss: Under current standards, companies present their operating results using various formats, making it difficult for investors to compare financial performance across companies. The new standard adopts a more structured format for the statement of profit or loss by introducing a newly defined subtotal for “operating profit.” It also requires all income and expenses to be classified into three newly defined categories based on the company’s main business activities. | January 1, 2027

Note: On September 25, 2025, the Financial Supervisory Commission issued a press release announcing that Taiwan will adopt IFRS 18 starting from the 2028 fiscal year. Companies wishing to adopt the standard early may do so upon approval by the Financial Supervisory Commission. |


~10~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

  • Management Performance Measures (MPMs): The new standard introduces a definition for Management Performance Measures and requires companies to disclose them in a single note to the financial statements. For each measure, companies must explain why it provides useful information, how it is calculated, and how it reconciles with amounts recognized in accordance with IFRS/IAS.

  • More Disaggregated Information: The new standard includes guidance on how companies should enhance the grouping of information in financial statements. This includes guidance on whether information should be presented in the primary financial statements or further disaggregated in the notes to the financial statements.

The Company 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 Company completes its evaluation.

The Company does not expect the other new and amended standards, which have yet to be endorsed by the FSC, to have a significant impact on its parent company only financial statements.

  • Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution of Assets Between an Investor and Its Associate or Joint Venture”.

  • IFRS 19 “Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures” and amendments to IFRS 19

  • Amendments to IAS 21 “Translation to a Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency”

These parent company only financial statements were prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers”.

(II) Basis of preparation

  1. Measurement bases

Except for the following significant accounts, the parent company only financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis:

(1) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss measured at fair value;

(2) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive profit or loss measured at fair value; and

(3) Net defined benefit asset is the fair value of pension fund assets less the present value of defined benefit obligation.

  1. Functional and presentation currency

The Company uses the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates as its functional currency. The parent company only financial statements were expressed in NTD, which is the Company's functional currency. All financial information presented in New Taiwan Dollar has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

(III) Foreign currency

  1. Foreign currency transaction

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the respective functional currencies of the Company entities at the exchange rates on the dates of the transactions. At the end of each subsequent reporting period (hereinafter referred to as “reporting date”), monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currencies using the exchange rate on that date. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are translated into the functional currencies using the exchange rate on the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured based on historical cost are translated using the exchange rate on the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences are generally recognized in profit or loss, except for investment


~12~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

in equity securities designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income which is recognized in other comprehensive income.

2. Foreign operation

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from acquisition, are translated into New Taiwan Dollars at the exchange rates on the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated into New Taiwan Dollars on the average exchange rate. Exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

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

When the settlement of a monetary receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future, exchange differences arising from such a monetary item that are considered to form part of the net investment in the foreign operation are recognized in other comprehensive income.

(IV) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities

The Company classifies an asset as current under one of the following criteria, and all other assets are classified as non-current:

  1. It is expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle of the Company;
  2. It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
  3. It is expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or
  4. The asset is cash or cash equivalent (as defined in IFRS 7) unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

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

  1. It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;
  2. it is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
  3. liabilities are due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or

~13~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

  1. at the end of the reporting period, there is no right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

(V) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits. Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Time deposits which meet the above definition and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes should be recognized as cash equivalents.

(VI) Financial instruments

  1. Financial asset

If the purchase or sale of financial assets conforms to conventional transactions, the Company shall adopt the accounting treatment on the transaction date or delivery date for all purchases and sales of financial assets classified in the same way.

The Company classifies financial assets into the following categories: Financial assets measured at amortized cost, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The Company reclassifies all affected financial assets only when it changes its business model for managing financial assets, and such reclassification is applied prospectively from the first day of the next reporting period.

(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.

These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost, which is the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial recognition plus/minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method, adjusted for any loss allowance. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses, as well as impairment, are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss.

(2) Financial Assets at FVTOCI

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


~14~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

  • 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.

Debt investments at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

Equity investments at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognized as income in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss.

Dividend income is recognized in profit or loss on the date on which the Company’s right to receive payment is established (it’s usually on Ex-dividend date).

(3) Financial assets at FVTPL

All financial assets not classified as amortized cost or FVOCI described as above are measured at FVTPL, including derivative financial assets. 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 recognized at fair value on initial recognition. Transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss when incurred. These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss.

(4) Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes an impairment provision for expected credit losses (ECLs) on financial assets measured at amortized cost, which was including cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, other receivables, guarantee deposit paid, and other financial assets.


~15~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

The Company measures an impairment provision at an amount equal to lifetime 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.

Impairment provision for trade receivables are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

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 quantitative and qualitative information, and analysis based on the Company's historical experience and informed credit assessment as well as forward-looking information.

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.

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.

On 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 severely past due;
  • the lender of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower's financial difficulty, has granted to the borrower a concession that the

~16~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

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.

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when the Company has no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. The Company individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Company expects no significant recovery from the amount written off.

(5) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred, 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.

  1. 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.

(2) Equity transactions

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.

(3) Treasury stocks

When shares recognized as equity are repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, which includes directly attributable costs, is recognized as a deduction from equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury stocks. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognized as an increase in equity, and the


~17~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is recognized in capital surplus or retained earnings (if the capital surplus is not sufficient to be written down).

(4) Financial liability

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost or FVTPL. 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.

Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognized in profit or loss.

(5) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expired. The Company also derecognizes a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognized at fair value.

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

(6) Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of balance sheet when, and only when, the Company currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

  1. Derivative financial instruments

The Company holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency exposures. Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally recognized in profit or loss.

(VII) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted-average method, and includes expenditure


~18~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

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, costs include an appropriate share of production overhead 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.

(VIII) Investment in subsidiaries

The subsidiaries in which the Company holds controlling interest are accounted for under the equity method in the parent company only financial statements. Under the equity method, the profit or loss during the period and other comprehensive income presented in the parent company only financial reports shall be the same as the allocations of profit or loss during the period and of other comprehensive income attributable to owners of the parent company presented in the financial reports prepared on a consolidated basis, and the owners' equity presented in the parent company only financial reports shall be the same as the equity attributable to owners of the parent company presented in the financial reports prepared on a consolidated basis.

Changes in the Company's ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Company losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions.

(IX) Property, plant and equipment

  1. Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plants, and equipment are measured at cost, which includes capitalized borrowing costs, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

If significant parts of an item of property, plants, and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plants, and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plants, and equipment is recognized in profit or loss.

  1. Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company.

  1. Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated on the cost of an asset less its residual value and is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each


~19~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

component.

Land shall not be listed for depreciation.

The estimated useful lives of property, plants, and equipment for current and comparative periods are as follows:

(1) Buildings 40~55 years
(2) Facilities and equipment for buildings 3~35 years
(3) Machinery and equipment 2~20 years
(4) Leased improvements and other equipment 1~15 years

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

(X) 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.

  1. Lessee

The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on 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 on 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 re-measurements of the lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid on 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:

(1) fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;
(2) Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the


~20~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

index or rate as of the commencement date;

(3) amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and
(4) payments for purchase or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised.

The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is re-measured when:

(1) there is a change in future lease payments arising from the change in an index or rate;
(2) there is a change in the Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee;
(3) there is a change in the lease term resulting from a change of its assessment on whether it will exercise an option to purchase the underlying assets,
(4) there is a change of its assessment on whether it will exercise an extension or termination option; or
(5) there are any lease modifications.

When the lease liability is re-measured, 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 re-measured 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 re-measurement 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 and lease liabilities that do not meet the definition of investment property as a separate line item respectively in the statement of balance sheet.

The Company allocates the price listed in the contract to individual lease components. However, for the leases of land and buildings in which it is a lessee, the Company has elected not to separate non-lease components and account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

(XI) Impairment of non-financial assets

On each reporting date, the Consolidated Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other than inventories and deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.


~21~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or cash-generating units (CGUs).

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU.

An impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is lower than its carrying amount.

(XII) Revenue recognition

  1. 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) Sale of goods

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the products has transferred. When the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has full discretion over the channel and price to sell the products, 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.

A receivable is 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.

(2) 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.

(XIII) Employee benefits

  1. Defined contribution plans

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed as the related


~22~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

service is provided.

  1. Defined benefit plan

The Company’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefits that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair value of any plan assets.

The calculation of defined benefit obligations is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a potential asset for the Company, the recognized asset is limited to 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. To calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any applicable minimum funding requirements.

Re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability, which comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest), and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income, and accumulated in retained earnings within equity. The Company determined the net interest expenses (income) on the net defined benefit liability (asset) for the period by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation at the beginning of the annual period to the then-net defined benefit liability (asset). Net interest expenses and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in profit or loss.

When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefits that relates to past service or the gain or loss on curtailment is recognized immediately in profit or loss. The Company recognizes gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.

  1. Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are expensed as related service provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

(XIV) Income Taxes

Income taxes comprise 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 are recognized in profit or loss.

Current taxes comprise the expected tax payables or receivables on the taxable profits (losses) for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount is the best estimate of the expected payment or receipt based on the statutory


~23~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

tax rate or tax rate substantially enacted on the reporting date.

Deferred income tax is measured and recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their tax bases at the reporting date. Deferred taxes are recognized except for the following:

  1. Assets or liabilities initially recognized in a transaction that is not a business merger, and at the time of the transaction (i) does not affect accounting profits and taxable income (loss) and (ii) do not give rise to equivalent taxable and deductible temporary differences;
  2. Temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and
  3. Taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax assets are 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 profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefits will be realized; or reversed to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available.

Deferred taxes are measured at tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reserve, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted on the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if the following criteria are met:

  1. The Company has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
  2. the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either:
    (1) the same taxable entity; or
    (2) different taxable entities which intend to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis, or to realize the assets and liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

(XV) Earnings per Share

The Company discloses the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company. The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the profit attributable to the ordinary shareholders of the Company divided by the weighted-


~24~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

average number of ordinary shares outstanding. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company divided by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding after adjustment for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. The Company's potential diluted common stock includes estimated employee remuneration.

(XVI) Segment Information

The operating segment information is disclosed in the Company’s consolidated financial statements; therefore, the Company does not disclose segment information in these financial statements.

V Significant Accounting Assumptions and Judgments, and Major Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

When preparing the parent company only financial reports, management must make judgments and estimates about the future (including climate-related risks and opportunities), which will affect the adoption of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Management continuously reviews estimates and underlying assumptions, which are consistent with the Company’s risk management and climate-related commitments. Changes in estimates are recognized during the period of change and are deferred for the affected future periods.

There are no critical judgments in applying the accounting policies that have a significant effect on the amounts recognized in the parent company only financial statements.

The uncertainty of the following assumptions and estimates has a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the book value of assets and liabilities in the next financial year. The relevant information is as follows:

(I) Valuation of inventories

As inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, the Company estimates the net realizable value of inventories for obsolescence and unmarketable items at the end of the reporting period and then writes down the cost of inventories to net realizable value. The net realizable value of the inventory is mainly determined based on assumptions as to future demand within a specific time horizon, so there may be significant changes in the net realizable value of inventories.

The accounting policy and disclosure of the Company include measuring the financial assets, non-financial assets, and financial liabilities at fair value. The finance department of the Group uses 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 other resources. The finance department of the Group regularly revises the evaluation models and the input parameters, makes


~25~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

retrospective reviews, and makes essential adjustments to ensure that the evaluation results are 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 identified 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.

A special reserve is set aside from the current year's net income after tax and the prior year's undistributed earnings at an amount equal to the debit balance of contra accounts in shareholders' equity.

In accordance with the amended Articles, if there is profit in the year, the Company shall set aside 3% of the profit as employee's remuneration, which shall be distributed in shares or cash as resolved by the board of directors; the Company may, by the resolution of the board of directors, set aside no more than 2% of the above-mentioned profit as remuneration to directors. Of the employee remuneration mentioned above, not less than 30% shall be allocated for distribution to basic-level employees. The proposal for the distribution of employees' and directors' remuneration shall be submitted to the shareholders' meeting for reporting. However, if the Company still has accumulated losses, the Company shall reserve an amount to make up for it, and then provide employees' remuneration and directors' remuneration in accordance with the aforementioned percentages.

Under the Articles prior to amendment, where the Company has a profit in a fiscal year, it shall allocate no less than 3% of the profit as employees’ remuneration and no more than 2% of the profit as the remuneration of directors and supervisors. However, where the Company still has accumulated losses, the amount shall be reserved for making up the accumulated losses first. And they shall be recognized as operating costs and operating expenses for the period.

The 2025 and 2024 remuneration to employees was NT$12,929 thousand (including compensation for basic-level employees) and NT$15,175, and the remuneration to directors was NT$8,619 thousand and NT$10,117 thousand, respectively, which was deducted from the Company's net profit before tax for the period before deducting the remuneration to employees and directors, and after deducting the accumulated losses, and then multiplying the remaining balance by the percentage of compensation to employees and directors stipulated in the Company's Articles of Incorporation, and report it as operating costs or operating expenses for the period. If there is any discrepancy between the actual distribution amount and the estimated


~41~

number, the difference is treated according to the change in accounting estimates and recognized as profit or loss in the next year. If the board of directors decides to pay remuneration to employees in shares, the number of shares as remuneration shall be calculated based on the closing price on the day before the board's resolution (after taking into account the effect of ex-rights and ex-dividends).

The allocation and actual distribution of employee and director remuneration for the year 2024 by the company showed no discrepancies. Relevant information can be accessed via the Market Observation Post System.

(XX) Financial instruments

  1. Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers, derivatives, and investment in securities.

(1) Accounts receivables and other receivables

The Company has established a credit policy, and according to the policy, the


~42~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

Company must analyze its individual credit rating for each new customer before giving the standard payment and delivery terms. The review of the Company includes an external review, and, in some cases, a note from the bank. Credit limit is offered to each customer and is reviewed regularly. Customers who do not comply with the Company's benchmark credit rating are only allowed to make the transaction with the Company on an advance receipt basis.

(2) Investment

The exposure to credit risk related for the bank deposits, fixed income investments, and other financial instruments is measured and monitored by the Company's finance department. The Company only deals with banks and other external parties with good credit rating and with financial institutions which are graded above investment grade. Management does not expect any counterparty to fail to meet its obligation hence there is no significant credit risk arising from these counterparties.

(3) Credit risk exposure

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the Company's maximum amount exposed to credit risk. Such maximum credit exposure on December 31, 2025 and 2024, amounted to NT$1,973,330 thousand and NT$1,954,777 thousand, respectively.

(4) Concentration of credit risk

The Company's credit risk is primarily affected by the credit characteristics of each debtor. The types of businesses in which customers operate also have an impact on credit risk. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's total notes and accounts receivable from the top ten customers represented 68% and 84% of the total notes and accounts receivable, respectively.

(5) Please refer to Note 6(4) for information on past due accounts receivable and impairment loss as of the reporting date.

  1. Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company manages and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents adequate to finance the Company's operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, the management of the Company monitors the utilization of borrowings and ensures compliance with loan conditions.

The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Company's financial liabilities:

(1) Based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities from the earliest date on


~43~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

which the Company can be required to pay, including interest but excluding the effect on the net amount of the agreement.

(2) The maturity dates for other non-derivative financial liabilities were based on the agreed upon repayment dates.

(3) For derivatives with net settlement, the analysis is based on undiscounted contractual net cash inflows and outflows; for derivatives with gross settlement, the analysis is based on undiscounted gross cash inflows and outflows.

The Company does not expect that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could occur significantly earlier or at a significantly different amount.

The above information on futures represents the carrying amounts of unsettled transactions as of each reporting date. For details on positions, notional principal amounts, maturities, and related information, please refer to Note 6(2).

3. Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and equity prices, will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The purpose of market risk management is to manage market risk to a tolerable level and to optimize investment returns.

(1) Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk arising from the fact that certain of its business activities are denominated in currencies other than the respective functional currencies. To avoid the decrease in the value of foreign-currency assets and fluctuations in future cash flows arising from changes in foreign exchange rates, the Company uses derivative instruments to hedge the foreign currency risk.

The Company’s significant exposure of financial assets and liabilities to foreign currency risk was as follows:

2025.12.31 2024.12.31
Foreign currency Exchange rate NTD Foreign currency Exchange rate NTD
Financial asset
Monetary items
USD $ 18,807 31.430 591,107 5,006 32.790 164,138
EUR 715 36.887 26,385 1 34.138 44
Financial liability
Monetary items
USD 44,778 31.430 1,407,386 42,764 32.790 1,402,244

The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, accounts


~45~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

receivable and other receivables, loans, accounts payable, and other payables that are denominated in foreign currencies. Assuming that the foreign currency exchange rate listed above decreased or increased by 1% on December 31, 2025 and 2024, and all other factors remain unchanged, The profit before tax for the year would have increased or decreased by NT$7,899 thousand and NT$12,381 thousand, respectively. The same basis was used for the analysis in both periods.

Information on the exchange rate used to translate gains and losses on monetary items (both realized and unrealized) into the functional currencies of the Company and into the parent company's functional currency, the NTD, which is the Company's presentation currency, is as follows:

2025 2024
Exchange Gain or Loss Average Exchange Rate Exchange Gain or Loss Average Exchange Rate
NTD $ 44,247 - (39,176) -

(2) Interest rate risk

The interest rates of the Company's interest-bearing financial instruments as of the reporting date are summarized as follows:

Carrying amount:
2025.12.31 2024.12.31
Fixed-rate Instrument:
Financial asset $ 295,290 45,023
Financial liability - -
$ 295,290 45,023
Variable-rate Instrument:
Financial asset $ 237,336 520,185
Financial liability (1,116,572) (1,124,938)
$ (879,236) (604,753)

Based on the sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk on non-derivative instruments on the reporting date, if the interest rate increased or decreased by 0.25% with all other variable factors remaining constant, the Company's net income would have decreased or increased by NT$2,198 thousand and NT$1,512 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, mainly from the interest rate risk exposure of bank deposits and loans with variable interest rates.

In addition, the Company's financial liabilities for fixed-rate instruments are


~46~

Evertop Wire Cable Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (continued)

measured at amortized cost. Changes in market interest rates on the reporting date have no effect on profit or loss; therefore, a sensitivity analysis of changes in fair value is not disclosed.

4. Information on fair value

(2) Valuation Techniques for Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

A. Non-derivative financial instruments

The fair value of financial instruments traded in an active market is based on the quoted market price.

If the quoted price of financial instruments can be obtained in time and often from exchanges, broker, underwriters, industry unions, pricing institutes, or authorities and such price can reflect those actual trading and frequency happen in the market, it is considered a financial instrument. If the financial instrument does not accord with the definition aforementioned, then it is considered to be without a quoted price in the active market. In general, a market with low trading volume or high bid-ask spreads is an indication of a non-active market.

The financial instruments held by the Company are classified according to the valuation techniques used to measure their fair value as follows:

  • The fair value of financial instruments traded in an active market is based on the quoted market price.
  • Measurement of fair value of financial instruments without an active market are based on the valuation technique or the quoted price from a competitor. Fair value, measured by using the valuation technique that can be extrapolated from either similar financial instruments or the discounted cash flow method or the market transaction prices of the similar companies or other valuation techniques, including models, is calculated based on available market data on the reporting date.

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 or option pricing models. Fair value of forward currency is usually determined by the forward currency exchange rate.

(XXI) Financial risk management

  1. Structure of risk management
