FOCALTECH SYSTEMS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 AND 2018 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
FocalTech Systems Co., Ltd. (the “FocalTech” or the “Company”), formerly named as Orise Technology Co., Ltd., was incorporated in the Republic of China (“ROC”) in January 2006 and moved to Hsinchu Science Park in April in the same year. The Company’s shares have been listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (“TSE”) since July 2007. On January 2, 2015, the Company acquired FocalTech Corporation, Ltd. through a share swap and renamed on January 17, 2015. This acquisition was comprehensively considered as a reverse merger, where FocalTech Corporation, Ltd. was treated as the acquirer in the financial statements. The Company mainly engages in the research, development, design, manufacturing, and sales of solutions regarding human and machine interface devices, such as Display Driver IC, Touch Control IC and so on.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in the Company’s functional currency of New Taiwan dollars.
2. APPROVAL OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Company’s board of directors on November 8, 2019.
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) (collectively, “IFRSs”) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC).
Except for the following, the initial application of the amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRSs endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC would not have any material impact on the Company’s accounting policies:
1) IFRS 16 “Leases”
IFRS 16 sets out the accounting standards for leases that supersedes IAS 17“Leases”, IFRIC 4 “Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease”, and a number of related interpretations. Refer to Note 4 for information relating to the relevant accounting policies.
Definition of a lease
The Company decides to apply the guidance of IFRS 16 in determining whether contracts are, or contain, a lease only to contracts signed or changed after January 1, 2019. Contracts currently identified as a lease under IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 are not reassessed and are accounted for in accordance with the transitional provisions under IFRS 16.
The Company as lessee
Except for payments for low-value assets and short-term leases which are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis, the Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the consolidated balance sheets. On the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, the Company presents the depreciation expense charged on the right-of-use assets separately from
This is the translation of the financial statements. CPAs do not audit or review on this translation.
- 6 -
interest expense accrued on lease liabilities and computed using the effective interest method. On the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash payments for the principal portion of lease liabilities are classified within financing activities. Cash payments for the interest portion are classified within operating activities. Prior to the application of IFRS 16, payments under operating lease contracts were recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis. Cash flows for operating leases were classified within operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Leases agreements classified as operating leases under IAS 17 are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate on January 1, 2019. Right-of-use assets are measured at an amount equal to the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment testing under IAS 36.
The Company is applicable to the expedient method and accounts for those leases which the lease term ends on or before December 31, 2019 as short-term leases.
There is no impact on assets, liabilities and equity as of January 1, 2019 under the initial application.
- 2) IFRIC 23 “Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments”
IFRIC 23 clarifies the accounting for uncertainties in income taxes. The Company is to assume that the taxation authority will examine any amounts reported to it and have full knowledge of all relevant information when doing so. If the Company concludes that it is probable that a particular tax treatment is accepted, the Company has to determine taxable profit (loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits or tax rates consistently with the tax treatment included in its income tax filings. If it is not probable that a particular tax treatment is accepted, the Company has to use the most likely amount or the expected value of the tax treatment. The decision should be based on which method provides better predictions of the resolution of the uncertainty. The Company has to reassess its judgments and estimates if facts and circumstances change.
- 3) Amendments to IAS 19 " Employee Benefits - Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement"
The amendments require the Company to use the most updated actuarial assumptions for its net defined benefit liabilities (assets) to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the annual reporting period when a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement occurs. In addition, the amendments clarify the effect of a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement on the requirements regarding the asset ceiling. The Company shall apply aforementioned amendments prospectively.

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 consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments measured at fair value and the net defined benefit liabilities recognized in the amount of the present value of defined benefit obligation less the fair value of any plan assets.
The fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on 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
See Note 12 for the detailed information of the subsidiaries (including the percentage of ownership and main business).
- d. Other significant accounting policies
Except for accounting policies for leases and the following, the accounting policies applied in these consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018.
This is the translation of the financial statements. CPAs do not audit or review on this translation.
- 8 -
1) Leases
2019
The Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains a lease at the inception of a contract.
The Company as lessee
The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of a lease, except for short-term leases and low-value asset leases accounted for applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
2018
The Company as lessee
Operating lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
2) Retirement benefits
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, and adjusted for significant market fluctuations since that time and for significant plan amendments, settlements, or other significant one-off events.
- 3) Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The interim period income tax expense is accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings, that is, the estimated average annual effective income tax rate applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period. The effect of changes in tax rate resulting from the amendments in the tax regulations is recognized in profit or loss or other comprehensive income in full in the occurring period, which is consistent with the accounting treatment of the corresponding transaction itself.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
The critical accounting judgments, estimations and assumptions applied in these consolidated financial statements are consistent with those in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018.
6. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The average credit term for sales of goods was 60-120 days. In order to minimize credit risk, the Company’s management has delegated a team responsible for determining line of credit, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade receivable at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate allowances are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the Company’s management believes the Company’s credit risk was significantly reduced.
The Company applies the simplified approach prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of lifetime expected loss allowances for all trade receivables. The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated by using an allowance matrix with reference to customers’ past default records, customers’

current financial position, and general economic conditions of the industry. According to past experiences, there is no significant difference in the loss pattern among different customer groups. Therefore, the Company does not further identify any specific customer groups for the allowance matrix, and only sets the expected credit loss rate based on the overdue duration of trade receivables.
The following table details the loss allowance of trade receivables based on the Company’s allowance matrix.

reverse merger was triggered by FocalTech Corporation, Ltd. on January 2, 2015, resulting in the goodwill of NT3,237,268 thousand. In 2018, the impacts of market improper competition and the shortage of wafer supply made the company suffer a serious market share decline, which was expected to influence the market share and gross margins in the future. Therefore, it was estimated that the recoverable amount from IDC (Integrated Driver Controller) was less than the carrying value, and the Company recognized an impairment loss of NT2,000,000 thousand.
The recoverable amount derived from projected cash flows from IDC at a discount rate of 9.95%, under the assumptions of future growth rates of smartphone, market shares, gross margins and forecasted operating expenses made by management judgments and historical experiences.

The Board of Directors may prepare a distribution proposal for the remaining earnings plus the unappropriated retained earnings at the beginning of the period in consideration of the operation status. Earnings distribution may be made in the form of shares after an approved resolution made by the shareholders’ meeting, or in the form of cash after an approved resolution made by the BOD.
The Company’s amended Articles of Incorporation provide that, when distributing annual earnings, the Company shall pay taxes, offset its losses, set aside 10% as legal reserve, then set aside or reverse a special reserve in accordance with relevant laws or regulations. The Board of Directors shall prepare a distribution proposal for the remaining earnings plus the unappropriated retained earnings of previous years.

The fair values of non-publicly traded equity investments are mainly determined by using the market approach, with reference to the recent financing activities of investees or the market transaction prices and status of the similar instruments. The Company evaluated and selected the suitable valuation method with discretion, but the use of different valuation models or fair values may result in different valuation results.

These risks include market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
The board of directors is solely responsible for establishing and monitoring the framework of risk management of the Company. The chairman is authorized by the board of directors to develop and monitor the risk management policy of the Company with the operation center of the Group, and regularly reported the situation to the board of directors.
The Company’s financial risk management policies are established for identifying and analyzing the financial risks to the Company, evaluating the impacts of the financial risks, and conducting the financial-risk aversion policies. The financial risk management policies are periodically reviewed to reflect changes in the market and the operations. The Company devotes to build a disciplined and constructive control environment through proper internal controls, such as training and establishing managerial principles and operation procedures in order to have all employees aware of their own roles and responsibilities.
The Company’s management oversees the Company operates in compliance with financial risk management policies and reviews the appropriateness of risk management structure under supervision of the board of directors. Internal auditors, in assistance to the board of directors, perform periodical and exceptional reviews on the controls and procedures of financial risk management and report the results of review to the board of directors.

against the relevant foreign currencies. 5% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation value at the end of the reporting period by a 5% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number in below table indicates an increase in pre-tax profit or equity associated with a 5% depreciation of the functional currency against the relevant currency. In contrast, 5% appreciation of the functional currency against the relevant currency leads to an equal and opposite impact on pre-tax profit or equity.
| Profit or loss/ equity | USD Impact | USD Impact | USD Impact | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| For the Nine Months Ended September 30 | ||||
| 2019 $ 43,668 (i) |
2018 | |||
| $ 18,076 (i) |
- i. This was mainly attributable to the outstanding balances of USD time deposits, trade receivables, trade payables, other payables, other current assets and other current liabilities.
b) Interest rate risk
The Company was exposed to interest rate risk primarily related to its investments in fixed-rate time deposits, bonds, floating-rate demand deposits and structured investments. The time deposits were at fixed interest rates, and bonds were at fixed rates or with guaranteed minimal interest rates and carried. Therefore, changes in interest rates would not affect the future cash flows.
Financial assets exposed to interest rates at the end of the reporting period are as follows:
Fair value interest rate risk Financial assets Cash flow interest rate risk Financial assets Fair value interest rate risk Financial liabilities |
September 30, 2019 $ 4,031,409 $ 1,219,629 $ - |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $ 4,038,593 $ 1,464,181 $ 100,000 |
Sensitivity analysis
The below sensitivity analysis was determined based on the Company’s exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments as of the end of the reporting period. An increase or a decrease of 25 basis points 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 Company’s pre-tax profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 would increase/ decrease by NT$2,287 thousand and NT$2,745 thousand, respectively.
2) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. As at the end of the reporting period, the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Company due to failure of counterparties to discharge an obligation could arise from the carrying amounts of the financial assets as recognized in the balance sheets.
