NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018 (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”), 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 on 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 is mainly engaged in research, development, design, manufacturing, and sales of solutions regarding to 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, New Taiwan dollars.
2. APPROVAL OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Company’s board of directors on May 7, 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) recognized and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) (collectively, “IFRSs”).
Except the following items, the initial adoption in 2018 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) IFRS 16 “Leases”
IFRS 16 sets out the accounting standards for leases that will supersede IAS 17“Leases”, IFRIC 4 “ Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease”, and a number of related interpretations.The relevant accounting policies could be found in Note 4.
Definition for leases
The Company decides only to include the contracts signed or changed after January 1, 2019 to use IFRS 16 evaluation. The contracts currently considered to be judged as leases based on IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 will not be re-evaluated and will be processed in accordance with the transitional provisions of IFRS 16.
The Company is lessee
When IFRS 16 first time is applied, the Company will recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the consolidated balance sheets except for low-value asset lease and short-term leases recognized as expenses on a straight line basis. On the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, the Company will 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 will be classified within financing activities. The interest portion will be classified within operating activities. Before IFRS 16 is applied, payments under operating lease contracts are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis. Cash flows for operating leases are classified within operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows.
For the current agreements judged and processed as operating leases based on IAS 17, the measurement of the lease liability on January 1, 2019 will be discounted by the remaining lease payments at the incremental borrowing rate of the lessee at that date. All right-of-use assets will be measured by the amount of the lease liability on that date, which will be subject to IAS 36 impairment assessment.
The Company is expected to apply the expedient method and account those leases which lease term ends on or before December 31, 2019 as short-term leases.
There is no impact on the assets, liabilities and equity on January 1, 2019 by this application.
- 2) IFRIC 23 “Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments”
IFRIC 23 clarifies that when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments, the Company should assume that the taxation authority will have full knowledge of all related information when making related examinations. If the Company concludes that it is probable that the taxation authority will accept the Company declaration, the Company’s financial statements should reflect consistently with its income tax filing, using the same assumptions regarding the taxable income, tax bases, unused loss credits, unused tax credits or tax rates. If it is not probable to be accepted by the taxation authority, the Company should make estimates using either the most likely amount or the expected value of the tax treatment, depending on which method could come out the better prediction to 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 amendment provides that when the plan is amended, curtailed or settled, the current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the year shall be determined on the basis of the actuarial assumptions used to re-measure the net defined benefit liabilities (assets). In addition, the amendment clarifies the impact of the plan's amendment, curtailment or settlement on rules applied to the asset cap. The aforementioned amendments will is applied 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 are prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the financial instruments measured at fair value and the net defined benefit liabilities recognized in the fair value of the estimated assets, and 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

2018
The Company as a lessee
When the Company is a lessee of an operation lease, the payments under operating lease contracts are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
- 2) 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.
- 3) 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. The effect of a change in tax rate resulting from the amendment in the tax law is recognized consistent with the accounting treatment of the corresponding transaction itself, and is recognized in profit or loss or other comprehensive income in full in the occurring period.

The average credit period on sales of goods was 60-120 days. 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 Company applies the simplified approach prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of allowances of expected credit losses over the lifetime for all trade receivables. The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated by using an allowance matrix with references to past customer default records, customer’s current financial position, and general economic conditions of the industry. Due to the past experiences, there is no significant difference in the loss patterns of different customer groups. Therefore, the allowance matrix does not further distinguish the customer base, and only sets the expected credit loss rate based on the overdue days of trade receivable.
The following table details the loss allowance of trade receivables based on the Company’s allowance matrix.

c. Retained earnings and dividend policy
Under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, in the allocation of the net profits for each fiscal year, the Company should first offset its deficits in previous years and then set aside a legal reserve at 10% of the remaining profits until the accumulated legal capital reserve equals total capital. After deducting the legal reserve and any special reserve as required by laws or related regulations.
Any balance, the distribution of earnings is proposed by the board of directors for approval at the stockholders’ meeting. For the comparison of the original and amended of the “Articles of Incorporation” about the accrual basis of the employees’ compensation and remuneration to directors, please refer to Note 22(d).
Considering current and future development plans, investment conditions, capital requirements, and market competition situations, and shareholder benefits, The Company would appropriate the dividends to the shareholders not less than 10% of the current year’s earnings. The dividends could be paid in cash or shares. The cash portion should be equal or more than 10% of the total dividends. It is allowed not to distribute any cash dividend if the cash amount per share is less than NT 0.5.
This is the translation of the financial statements. CPAs do not audit or review on this translation.
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.

These risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

1) Market risk
The major financial risks from the Company’s operation were foreign currency exchange risk referred to a) and interest rate risk referred to b).
a) Foreign currency risk
The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities which were not in the same functional currency with the Group entity at the end of the reporting period are shown in Note 30.
Sensitivity analysis
The Group was mainly exposed to the U.S. dollar.
The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in New Taiwan dollars (the functional currency) 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 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.

2018 $ 31,197(i) |
- i. This was mainly attributable to the exposure outstanding on USD time deposits, trade receivables, trade, other payables, other current assets and other current liability.
b) Interest rate risk
The Group was exposed to interest risk arising from fixed rate time deposits, bond investments, and 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 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, 2019 | 2018 | March 31, 2018 | |||

| Cash flow interest rate risk | |||||
| Financial assets | $ | 888,136 |
$ | 901,327 | $ 1,604,460 |
Sensitivity analysis
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, 2019 and 2018 would decrease/increase by $555 thousand and $1,003 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.
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, 2019, the Group’s five largest customer took 84% of total trade receivables, the remaining transactions with a large number of unrelated customers, thus, no significant concentration of credit risk was observed.

Credit risk management for investments in debt instruments
The Group’s investments in debt instruments are financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income.

Credit rating information is provided by independent rating institute. The Company continuously tracks external rating information to monitor changes in credit risk of the invested debt instruments, and also examines other information such as the bond yield curve and the debtor's material information to assess whether the credit risk of the debt instrument investment has increased significantly after the original recognition.
The Company assesses the 12-month expected credit loss based on the probability of default and loss given from default provided by external credit rating agencies. The current credit risk assessment policies and carrying amount of investments in debt instruments for each credit rating are as follows:
