NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2016 AND 2015 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)
FOCALTECH SYSTEMS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
FocalTech Systems Co., Ltd. (the “FocalTech” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the Republic of China (“ROC”) in January 2006 and moved to Hsinchu Science Park in April of the same year. The Company was formerly known as Orise Technology Co., Ltd. and renamed on January 17, 2015. The Company is mainly engaged in research, development, design, and sale of LCD Drive IC, and also provision of the related hardware and software application design, manufacturing, repairs and consulting service.
The shareholders’ meeting of the Company resolved to acquire FocalTech Corporation, Ltd. through a share swap, with the reference date of the acquisition and share swap on January 2, 2015. This Acquisition was comprehensively considered as a reverse merger, where FocalTech Corporation, Ltd. was treated as the acquirer and the Company as the acquiree.
The Company’s shares have been listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (“TSE”) since July 2007.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in the Company’s functional currency, New Taiwan dollars.
2. APPROVAL OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Company’s board of directors on April 25, 2017.
3. APPLICATION OF NEW, AMENDED AND REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS
- a. Initial application of the amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) recognized and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) (collectively, “IFRSs”).
Except the following items, the initial adoption in 2017 of the IFRSs and related amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers above would not result in material impact on the Company’s accounting policies:
- 1) Amendment to IAS 36 “Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-financial Assets”
In issuing IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement”, the IASB made consequential amendment to the disclosure requirements in IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”, introducing a requirement to disclose in every reporting period the recoverable amount of an asset or each cash-generating unit. The amendment clarifies that such disclosure of recoverable amounts is required only when an impairment loss has been recognized or reversed during the period. Furthermore, the Group is required to disclose the discount rate used in measurements of the recoverable amount based on fair value less costs of disposal measured using a present value technique.
2) Annual Improvements to IFRSs: 2010-2012 Cycle
Several standards including IFRS 2 “Share-based Payment”, IFRS 3 “Business Combinations” and IFRS 8 “Operating Segments” were amended in this annual improvement.
The amended IFRS 2 changes the definitions of “vesting condition” and “market condition” and adds definitions for “performance condition” and “service condition”. The amendment clarifies that a performance target can be based on the operations (i.e. a non-market condition) of the Group or another entity in the same group or the market price of the equity instruments of the Group or another entity in the same group (i.e. a market condition); that a performance target can relate either to the performance of the Group as a whole or to some part of it (e.g. a division); and that the period for achieving a performance condition must not extend beyond the end of the related service period. In addition, a share market index target is not a performance condition because it not only reflects the performance of the Group, but also of other entities outside the Group. The accounting treatments are different among the share-based payment agreements of “market condition,” “non-market condition,” and “non-vesting condition.” The amendment above would affect the accounting treatments of the share-based payment agreements from 2017.
IFRS 3 was amended to clarify that contingent consideration should be measured at fair value, irrespective of whether the contingent consideration is a financial instrument within the scope of IFRS 9 or IAS 39. Changes in fair value should be recognized in profit or loss.
The amended IFRS 8 requires an entity to disclose the judgments made by management in applying the aggregation criteria to operating segments, including a description of the operating segments aggregated and the economic indicators assessed in determining whether the operating segments have “similar economic characteristics”. The amendment also clarifies that a reconciliation of the total of the reportable segments’ assets to the entity’s assets should only be provided if the segments’ assets are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker.
IFRS 13 was amended to clarify that the insurance of IFRS 13 did not remove the ability to measure short-term receivables and payables with no stated interest rate at their invoice amounts without discounting, if the effect of not discounting is immaterial.
- 3) Amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers
The amendments append several accounting items and requirements for disclosures of impairment of non-financial assets as a consequence of the IFRSs recognized by the FSC and applied from 2017. In addition, as a result of the implementation review of IFRSs in Taiwan, the amendments emphasize certain recognition and measurement considerations and add requirements for disclosures of related party transactions and goodwill.
The amendments stipulate that other companies or institutions of which the chairman of the board of directors or president serves as the chairman of the board of directors or the president, or is the spouse or second degree relatives of the chairman of the board of directors or president of the Group are deemed to have a substantive related party relationship with the Group, unless it can be demonstrated that no control, joint control, or significant influence exists. Furthermore, the amendments require the disclosure of the names of the related parties and the relationship with whom the Group has significant transactions. If the transaction or balance with a specific related party is 10% or more of the Group’s respective total transaction or balance, such transaction should be separately disclosed by the name of each related party.
The disclosure is required if there is a significant difference between the following operation result and the expectation set on acquisition date.
The disclosures of related impairment of goodwill will be enhanced when the above amendments are retrospectively applied in 2017, please refer to Note 15.
- b. New IFRSs in issue but not yet endorsed by the FSC
The Group has not applied the following New IFRSs issued by the IASB but not yet endorsed by the
FSC. The FSC announced that amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 will be applicable starting January 1, 2018. As of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the FSC has not announced their effective dates.

With regards to financial assets, all recognized financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” are subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value. Under IFRS 9, the requirement for the classification of financial assets is stated below.
For the Group’s debt instruments that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, their classification and measurement are as follows:
-
a) For debt instruments, if they are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, the financial assets are measured at amortized cost and are assessed for impairment continuously with impairment loss recognized in profit or loss, if any. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss by using the effective interest method;
-
b) For debt instruments, if they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both the collecting of contractual cash flows and the selling of financial assets, the financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) and are assessed for impairment. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss by using the effective interest method, and other gain or loss shall be recognized in other comprehensive income, except for impairment gains or losses and foreign exchange gains and losses. When the debt
instruments are derecognized or reclassified, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss.
Except for above, all other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss. However, the Group may make an irrevocable election to measure an equity investment, which is not held for trading, in the fair value, with only dividend income generally recognized in profit or loss. No subsequent impairment assessment is required, and the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income cannot be reclassified from equity to profit or loss.
The impairment of financial assets
IFRS 9 requires that impairment loss on financial assets is recognized by using the “Expected Credit Losses Model”. The credit loss allowance is required for financial assets measured at amortized cost, financial assets mandatorily measured at FVTOCI, lease receivables, contract assets arising from IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, certain written loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts. A loss allowance for the 12-month expected credit losses is required for a financial asset if its credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition. A loss allowance for full lifetime expected credit losses is required for a financial asset if its credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition and is not low. However, a loss allowance for full lifetime expected credit losses is required for trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction.
For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, the Group takes into account the expected credit losses on initial recognition in calculating the credit-adjusted effective interest rate. Subsequently, any changes in expected losses are recognized as a loss allowance with a corresponding gain or loss recognized in profit or loss.
Transition
Financial instruments that have been derecognized prior to the effective date of IFRS 9 cannot be reversed to apply IFRS 9. Under IFRS 9, the classification, measurement and impairment of financial assets are applied retrospectively. The difference between the previous carrying amounts and the carrying amounts at the date of initial application should be recognized in the current period. Restatement of prior periods is not required.
- 2) IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and the related amendments
IFRS 15 specifies the recognition principle of income generated from the customer contracts; also, the guidelines will replace IAS 18 “Income,” IAS 11 “Construction Contracts,” and related interpretations.
The Consolidated Company after adopting IFRS 15 has income recognized according to the following steps:
-
Identify the contract with the customer;
-
Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
-
Determine the transaction price;
-
Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contracts; and
-
Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
When IFRS 15 and related amendment are effective, the combined company may elect to apply this Standard either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this Standard recognized at the date of initial application.
3) IFRS 16 “Leases”
IFRS 16 sets out the accounting standards for leases that will supersede IAS 17 and a number of related interpretations.
Under IFRS 16, if the Company is a lessee, it shall recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the consolidated balance sheets except for low-value and short-term leases. The Company may elect to apply the accounting method similar to the accounting for operating lease under IAS 17 to the low-value and short-term leases. On the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, the Company should present the depreciation expense charged on the right-of-use asset separately from interest expense accrued on the lease liability; interest is computed by using effective interest method. On the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash payments for the principal portion of the lease liability are classified within financing activities; cash payments for interest portion are classified within operating activities.
The application of IFRS 16 is not expected to have a material impact on the accounting of the Company as lessor.
When IFRS 16 becomes effective, the Company may elect to apply this Standard either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of the initial application of this Standard recognized at the date of initial application.
- 4) IFRIC 22 “Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration”
IAS 21 stipulated that a foreign currency transaction shall be recorded in the functional currency by the spot exchange rate at the date of the transaction. IFRIC 22 further explains that the transaction date is the date on which an entity recognizes payment or receipt of advance consideration for a non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, the entity shall discriminate the date of the transaction for each payment or receipt of advance consideration respectively.
The Company shall apply IFRIC 22 either retrospectively or prospectively to all assets, expenses and income in the scope of the Interpretation initially recognized on or after (a) the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies IFRIC 22, or (b) the beginning of a prior reporting period presented as comparative information in the financial statements of the reporting period in which the entity first applies IFRIC 22.
Except for the above impact, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Company is continuously assessing the possible impact that the application of other standards and interpretations will have on the Company’s financial position and financial performance, and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed.
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers (“the Regulations”) and IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed by the FSC. Disclosure information included in these interim consolidated financial statements is less than the disclosure information required in a complete set of annual financial statements.
- b. Basis of Preparation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments that are measured at fair values, as explained in the accounting policies
below.
The evaluation of fair value could be classified into Degree 1 to Degree 3 by the observable intensity and importance of related input value:
-
1) Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
2) Level 2 inputs are 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); and
-
3) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
-
c. Basis of consolidation
About the detail information, holding percentages, and main business of the subsidiaries, please refer to Note 13.
- d. Other significant accounting policies
Except for the following, the accounting policies applied in the consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016.
- 1) Retirement benefit costs
Pension cost for an interim period is calculated on a year-to-date basis by using the actuarially determined pension cost rate at the end of the prior financial year, adjusted for significant market fluctuations since that time and for significant plan amendments, settlements, or other significant one-off events.
- 2) Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. Interim period income taxes are assessed on an annual basis and calculated by applying to an interim period’s pre-tax income the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS
Except for the following, the uncertainty of critical accounting judgments, estimations and assumptions applied are consistent with those in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Income taxes
As of March 31, 2017, December 31, 2016, and March 31, 2016, no deferred tax liabilities has been recognized on earnings of the subsidiaries of $4,076,760 thousand, $4,328,808 thousand, and $4,199,422 thousand, respectively, due to the dividend policy of the subsidiaries was approved by the Company, the reversal of temporary differences of earning of the subsidiaries would be control and it’s probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

The average credit period on sales of goods was 60-120 days. No interest was charged on trade receivables. In determining the recoverability of a trade receivable, the Group considered any change in the credit quality of the trade receivable since the date credit was initially granted to the end of the reporting period. Allowance for impairment loss were recognized based on estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by reference to past default experience of the counterparties and an analysis of their current financial position.
For the trade receivables balances that were past due at the end of the reporting period, the Group did not recognize an allowance for impairment loss, because there was not a significant change in credit quality and the amounts were still considered recoverable. The Group did not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements for these balances.
The aging of receivables that were past due but not impaired was as follows:

The reverse merger by FocalTech Corporation, Ltd. on January 2, 2015, with the goodwill of 3,237,268, could bring in the synergy of integration of LCD driver and touch controller under the industry trend. IDC (Integrated Driver Controller) revenue and profit was lower than expected due to longer design-in schedule in panel makers, more complicated verification items for Brand customers and more time to lean the process for the supply chain…etc,. The recoverable amount from IDC (Integrated Driver Controller) still exceeded the carrying value so the Company did not recognize any impairment for the goodwill.
The recoverable amount is calculated by IDC projected net cash flows, discounted at 9.57%, under the assumptions of management team judgments and historical experiences with regard to future growth rates and market shares of smartphone, gross margins and forecasted operating expenses.

Legal reserve may be used to offset deficit. If the Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.
Except for non-ROC resident shareholders, all shareholders receiving the dividends are allowed a tax credit equal to their proportionate share of the income tax paid by the Company.

Sensitivity analysis
The Group was mainly exposed to the U.S. dollar and RMB.

The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the end of the reporting period for a 5% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number below indicates an decrease in pre-tax profit and other equity associated with New Taiwan dollars strengthen 5% against the relevant currency. For a 5% weakening of New Taiwan dollars against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on pre-tax profit and other equity and the balances below would be negative.

ii. This was mainly attributable to the exposure to outstanding RMB time deposits.
b) Interest rate risk
The Group was exposed to interest risk arising from fixed rate time deposits, bond investments, borrowings, bonds payable, and floating rate demand deposits. The time deposits were at fixed interest rates, and bonds were at fixed rates or with guaranteed minimal interest rates and carried at amortized costs, and, therefore, the variations to interest rates did not affect future cash flows.
The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows.
| December 31, | December 31, | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| March 31, 2017 | 2016 | March 31, 2016 | |||

The sensitivity analyses below were determined based on the Group’s exposure to interest rates for both derivatives and non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate assets, the analysis was prepared assuming the amount of the assets outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 25 basis point increase or decrease was used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
If interest rates had been 25 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s post-tax profit for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 would decrease/increase by $406 thousand and $761 thousand, respectively.
2) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. As at the end of the reporting period, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Group due to failure of counterparties to discharge an obligation from the carrying amounts of the financial assets as recognized in the balance sheets.
In order to minimize credit risk, management of the Group has delegated a team responsible for determining credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate allowances are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, management believes the Group’s credit risk was significantly reduced.
The credit risk on liquid funds and bonds was limited because the counterparties are banks and entities with high credit ratings.
The Group’s concentration of credit risk was related to the five largest client of trade receivables. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of trade receivables.
As of March 31,2017, the Group’s five largest customers took 70% of total trade receivables, the remaining transactions with a large number of unrelated customers, thus, no significant concentration of credit risk was observed.
3) Liquidity risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, bank loans are a significant resource of liquidity for the Group.
As of March 31, 2017, December 31, 2016, and March 31, 2016, the available unutilized short-term bank loan facilities refer to (b) Financing facilities.
