One. Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholders:
2018 is year of high uncertainty. From the financial aspects, the US economy is not bad, and as driven by the tax cuts, its performance was even stronger, leading the global stock market to have repeatedly hit new highs in the first half of the year. However, due to the austerity policies of the central banks in many countries, the global macroeconomic indicators are half good half bad. The global financial market may therefore begin to fluctuate in the second half of the year. Under the gloom of the possible economic slowdown, the stock market fluctuated and fell. From the political aspects, North Korea’s geopolitical risks have been reduced with the holding of the Trump-Kim summit. However, the economic cold war brought about by the US-China trade conflict, the confrontation between the United States and Russia in the Middle East, and the confrontation between the United States and China in the South China Sea depict a sense that the international disputes are diverging rather than converging, and tensions are rising rather than lowering. Due to the overall demand for oil has risen while the supply not being able to increase substantially, and the effect of the US sanctions against Iran, the oil price smashed through US$80 per barrel and greatly boosted inflation expectations. On the other hand, the global economy has expanded for many years and central banks of many countries has been implementing quantitative easing policy for many years. From the perspective of many recent economic indicators, the inflation risk has gradually emerged. Therefore, under the lead of the Fed, central banks in many countries began to shrink their balance sheets and raise interest rates, thus causing capital tightening. This is bound to bringing great volatility and instability to the global financial market.
From the economic aspect, Taiwan made outstanding achievements in year 2018. This is especially valuable in the face of the intensifying global trade conflicts. The only dissatisfaction are that the main growth momentum still comes from export growth, private consumption is declining due to the factors of annual reform, and the tourism industry continues to weaken. Although the stock market rose, it was mainly driven by the minority weighted stocks. Therefore, the people did not enjoy the wealth effect brought about by economic expansion. Looking into the future, there are many hidden concerns. One is the continued competition in the red supply chain. The other is that the trade war will have a negative impact on the export-oriented Taiwan economy. The third is that the economic expansion period is nearing the end, not far from downturn. How to overcome these hidden concerns and have the economy continue to grow is the major challenge that Taiwan will face next.
In 2018, the revenue of Foxconn Technology showed a slight decline. The main reason was that China-US trade conflicts brought uncertainty to the global economy. The increase in tariffs also caused a sharp downturn in the overall demand in the fourth quarter, and the visibility suddenly decreased sharply. In the case of conservative imports, the traditional shopping season ends early. There are three main reasons to the unsatisfactory gross profit margin and profitability. 1) The proportion of low-margin products is still high. 2) The global economy suddenly fell in the fourth quarter, the peak season is not prosperous. 3) the labor cost continues to rise. However, these negative factors are expected to be eased in the coming year, and the Company's gross profit margin and profit will also have an opportunity to improve.
Finally, the company management team would like to thank the shareholders for your support. In the face of the changing situation in the coming year, the company management team is confident to take hold, to grasp the opportunity amidst adverse economic situations, and to
-1-
lead all employees to work hard together to achieve the goal of revenue and profit growth. Thank you.

- (V) Research and Development:
In recent years, the growth rate of the technology industry has slowed down. Partly due to the saturation of the market, and lack of breakthrough in hardware technology is also one of the main reasons. The only solution is to continue investment in research and development, as breakthrough technological innovation can not only create demand, but also maintain the company's competitiveness. In the current phase, the company focuses research and development on:
- 1 New application: Automobile application market 2. New technology: Surface treatment technology for various materials 3. New Manufacturing process: To increase yield rate and decrease cost The company has a higher risk of single-handed R&D. In order to improve
- the success rate, the company adopts a cooperative approach. The potential partners are: 1. International clients: To understand the direction of international technology development and confirm the product roadmap
- 2. College campus: To recruit talents and explore the latest technological developments
- 3. Potential suppliers: To understand the diversification of industrial technology and suppliers
- 4. Equipment suppliers: To acquire equipment and analyze competitors' dynamics In case production, we still adhere to high-end products. The design of
- "metal frame" plus "glass back cover" should still be staying in the market for quite some time. The surface treatment technology develops toward "multi-color", "anode" and "sputter”. The development of heat-dissipation has been advancing towards developing new heat-dissipating materials, and the application advances toward hand-held devices, data storage, automotive and communication network equipment.
-
II. 2019 Business Plans:
-
(I) Operating Strategy:
In long-term, the outlook of technology industry is promising. However, the the following trend in the near future shall be placed under close scrutiny. 1. China-US trade war will affect the supply chain.
- The rise of trade protectionism will reduce demand.
-3-
-
Killer applications are uncommon.
-
The difficulty to raise sales price has increased.
-
The rise in inflation rate will increase production cost.
Though these development trends are not controllable by the Company, the Company can still take corresponding measures to mitigate the impacts. The Company has taken the following measures to reduce the related impacts: 1. Implement strict control over inventory to reduce the inventory price loss caused by uncertain demand
-
Continue to invest in R&D
-
Develop exclusive technology, and increase added-value of high-technology 4. Implement strict control over cost to improve yield and enhance automation to reduce overall costs
In order to achieve revenue growth, the company continues to adopt the following practices to ensure that the company's revenue achieves the target growth rate:
- Expand market share and develop new customers 2. Add new applications and enter into new industries 3. Develop new products and enter new markets
(II) Business Objectives and Important Production and Marketing Policies: The company is prudent and optimistic about the prospects for the coming year. The Company holds a prudent approach because the prediction of global economy is difficult, trade conflicts are constant, and the uncertainty is very high. The Company is optimistic because it has been adjusting its structure. The company can withstand risks in fluctuations better than its competitors, and the company will increase investment in R&D. When the economy recovers, the company will gain a firm foothold in the leading position in the casing and cooling industry.
-
Sales Strategies:
-
(1) Sales aspect: In international big companies, the Company continuously increase market share, and will also focus on customer diversification. In emerging markets, the Company maintains relationship with existing customers and increase market share. In future growth, the Company develops customers in non-3C industries to expand new sources of revenue.
-
(2) Price aspect: In the high-end technology segment, priority is given to the increase of unit price and gross profit margin. In non-high-end technology, priority is given in maintaining product unit price and economies of scale.
-
(3) Marketing aspect: The Company continues to develop customers in Europe, Japan, India and other regions.
-
Production Strategies:
-
(1) Moderately expand the plants and capacity in low-cost regions (2) Continue to increase the proportion and yield of automation to reduce production costs
-
(3) Improve existing manufacture processes and improve production efficiency
-
R&D Strategies:
-
(1) Develop jointly with international customers to confirm the correctness of the technology development direction
-
(2) Collaborate in projects with universities to recruit talent and learn about the latest technological developments
-4-
-
(3) Develop in cooperation with potential suppliers to understand the current state of industrial technology development
-
(4) Collaborate with equipment suppliers to understand the relevant vendor dynamics and understand the possibilities of various process developments.
-
(III) External Competitive Environment and Overall Business Environment
From the observations of the trend in the past one year, there are several points worth noting in the competition trend of the thermal module industry: 1) The merging and consolidation of the industry continues. 2) Demand for PC cooling remains weak. 3) The emerging of graphene brought about a possibility of restructuring of industry. 4) With the advent of the 5G era, there is an opportunity to drive new cooling needs. Foxconn Technology has always been a leader in the thermal industry. In addition to its leading position in R&D, the the adjustment of competitive strategy is prompt. Therefore, Foxconn Technology will retain its position as an industry leader in the future.
From the observations of the trend in the past one year, there are several points worth noting in the competition trend of the
metal casing industry:1) The importance of surface treatment technology has increased, and more colors have been developed and used in products. 2) New competitors are weaker than expected and it will take quite a while to be worth noting. 3) The red supply chain is still dominated by low-end technology products, and it does not pose a major threat to Taiwanese manufacturers with high-end technology. 4) The importance of stainless steel metal casings continues to increase. 5) The design of the metal frame plus glass back cover has become the mainstream of high-end models. Therefore, the future development of the metal casing industry is optimistic. Foxconn Technology is not only a leader in the metal casing industry, but some of its cutting-edge technologies are significantly ahead of competitors by 1 to 2 years, and therefore has a larger market share. Looking forward to the competitive environment in the future, the company has absolute confidence in maintaining its leading competitive advantage through the economies of scale brought by leading position in technology advance and market share.
As is known to all, in the past year, trade protectionism has become more and more intense, and its impact on the global economy has also emerged. The global demand has also been revised downward. It is expected that this situation will last in the future, which is considerably unfavorable for export-oriented Taiwanese manufacturers. No matter how the global political and economic situation evolves, the Company's management team has absolute confidence to face the challenges. The company's management team will continue to work hard, actively increase market share and expand new markets to improve the Company's profitability, and ensure the growth of shareholders' equity.
Finally, the Company and its employees would like to thank all shareholders for their continued support. The enthusiastic support of the shareholders gives the management team greater confidence to face all the adversities and challenges. The Company's management team is also looking forward to the support of shareholders in the coming year, and continue to surge amidst all adversities to achieve better results, thank you all shareholders, thank you!

As far as the above-mentioned industrial development is concerned, the Company has the most complete and diversified technology, and was one of the first to enter the non-3C industry such as automobiles, with strong capital backing from Foxconn Group. Therefore, the Company will undoubtedly still be the leader of the metal casing industry, and has a promising future.
(2) Thermal modules
In the past, the development of the thermal module industry has been inextricably linked to the working hours of desktop CPUs. Indeed, with the increasing demand of computing speed for electronic products such as desktop computers, the demand for heat dissipation has increased with the increase in the clock rate of computer CPUs. Therefore, the thermal module industry is prosperous. Its application has also extended from desktop computers to the following products: 1. Laptops: Including commercial laptops, consumer laptops and AIO computers.
-
Game consoles.
-
Servers 4. Smart phones. 5. LED lights
-
Others.
As for the current development of the heat-dissipation industry, although it is divergent, it can be summarized in the following aspects: 1. The demand for desktop computer thermal modules is still declining year by year. However, the demand cooling modules for devices including e-sports computers, cloud and smart phones continues to grow. 2. The technology is developing towards diversification. The technologies such as heat sinks, thermal modules, vapor chamber, graphite sheets and water-cooling heat dissipation are all prospering.
-81-
-
Cooling or thermal conductive materials have evolved from copper to aluminum, and then to graphene and other composites.
-
For portable products, heat sink combining with metal casing to dissipate heat has becoming the trend.
-
The trend of miniaturization and thinning continues.
The Company is very optimistic about the future of the thermal module industry. The future development can be summarized as follows:
-
Competitive trend: The continual consolidation is inevitable, which can be seen in the case where Nidec Corporation acquired partial shareholding in a Taiwanese manufacturer, Asia Vital Components Co., Ltd.
-
Product Trends: The application aspect will continue to expand into new areas, such as smart phones, base stations and data centers.
-
Technology trends: New composite heat sink materials will be the focus of future development.
As the functions of modern electronic products are becoming more and more integrated, the performance is becoming more and more powerful, the number of components is gradually increasing, and the power consumption is also increasing. Therefore, with the increasing of heat source and heat energy, the application and use of and demand of the thermal modules continues to grow, the design is becoming more and more diverse, and the difficulty of technical integration is also increasing. These lead to high challenges for the thermal module designers. Foxconn Technology has always had the best talent pool in the industry, with best quantity and quality. The Company has always been proud of it. Therefore, it has absolute confidence in the integrated design of future thermal modules to continue to maintain its leading position in the thermal model industry.
(3) Game consoles.
In the past few years, the global game console market is divided in three main sections, game consoles, PC consoles and mobile devices. It was widely believed that with the rise of the smart phones and tablet computers, it would be difficult for the game console market to boom. However, the performance of Sony and Nintendo in the past two to three years shows that the game console still has a place in the market, and plays an unneglectable role in the market.
Amidst the popularity of mobile games and the e-sports market, the game console still has its share in the market, and shows no signs of slumping. The main reasons for this are as follows:
-
Due to the high development cost of the game consoles, the update cycle has been extended from 3 years to 6 years, which reduces the cost of developers and consumers. The manufacturers attract consumers through yearly small modifications, to ensure a dose of novelty.
-
The market is well positioned. Some manufacturers target traditional games consoles supporters and heavy game players,
-82-
-
while some manufacturers aim at children or housewives. All have achieved certain success.
-
- Resorting to human sensory instinct, senses such as visual (VR), touch, hearing and vibration, also attract a certain number of players.
-
- Expanding consumer groups. The emergence of Switch has attracted many fans of different ages.
In the past three years, the game console industry has achieved certain level of success, but the further development in personalization, mobilization and platformization of game consoles is also undetectable in the future. If manufacturers want to have a place in the market, how to sustain innovation and ingenuity to increase loyalty of existing players while attracting new game players will be the main challenge in the future.

Technnology trend There are two trends in electronic product development. One is light and thin, and the other is increase in number of functions. The trend of demanding light and thin products urges the design of thermal modules more complicated, while the trend of demanding more functions, has urged an increase in numbers of components that lead to an increase in heat source and total amount of heat given off. In order to solve the problem of overheating, in order to enhance the efficiency of electronic products and increase the service life, the technical level of heat dissipation has been improved in the following aspects:
-87-
-
(a) Thermal conductivity: It consists of heat sinks, vapor chambers, thermal paste and heat pipes. The interior of the heat pipe is divided into grooves, fibers, sintering and composite technology.
-
(b) Heat dissipation: Aluminum fins are currently the most widely used material.
-
(c) Convective heat transfer: It includes fans and water cooling. (d) Development of new material: Graphene.
(e) Improve of technology is exhibited in the components. For example: i. Fan motor: From DC motor, to single-phase motor, to three-phase motor with thinning technology. ii. manufacturing process of cooling fins: Integration of techniques from aluminum extrusion, die casting, forging, fold bending, machine tooling to powder injection molding. iii. Combination of different components. The main function of thermal modules is to systematically transfer and dissipate heat generated by CPUs, GPUs and the power. Thus, the product designers and manufacturing personnel have to have competent knowledge and experience in the theory of heat dissipation and product design. Over the years, Foxconn Technology has been hiring many highly educated and experienced people who, in addition to being able to handle the development trend of related technologies, can create new technologies and new trends, and also lead the company to enter new fields, allowing Foxconn Technology to maintain its position as an industry leader.
Since the metal casing is mainly used in portable devices, the thinner and lighter has always been the trend, in addition, the design trend is moving towards a combination of metal and glass. As product differentiation will be more and more difficult to achieve, the industrial design and surface treatment has been gaining importance. In order to be in line with the aforementioned trends and developments, the future technical level of metal casings will be mainly laid upon the following aspects: (a) Level of precision is higher for the thinning trend of products. (b) The surface treatment techniques are becoming more complex for larger variety of colors. (c) Demand for precise machine tooling has increase for finer touches. (d) Streamline is demanded in the integration of components for higher quality.

Market share
-
A. Metal casing
-
At present, there is no research or statistics from relevant industry
-
research institutions on the market share of metal casings. Therefore, there is no reliable statistic to serve as a reasonable reference. However, the relative situation of competition of the industry can be understood through a rough description of the product category: (1) Laptops: Metal casings are mainly used in commercial laptops, but rarely in consumer laptops. The main suppliers are mainly Taiwanese manufacturers, and the market is also divided among Taiwanese manufacturers.
-
(2) Tablet computers: The market has been in a recession for many years and shows a tendency towards of monopoly. The main suppliers are mainly Taiwanese manufacturers, and the market is also divided among Taiwanese manufacturers.
-
-89-
- (3) Smart phones: Metal casings are mainly used in the high-end mobile phone markets. Due to high precision requirement and high entry threshold of the market, the red supply chain can not yet pose any threat. Therefore, the market is still dominated by two main Taiwanese suppliers.
- (4) Wearable devices: The market for wearable products consist of a wide range of items but in small quantities. Although there is potential for high growth in the future, the focus of each manufacturer at this stage is different, and thus it is difficult to determine the market share.
-
B. Thermal modules Similar to the situation of the metal casing industry, there is no
-
relevant industrial research institution that conducts official statistic analysis on market share of the thermal module industry. Moreover, the core competitiveness of each manufacturer is different, and their development focuses are thus different. Therefore, only a rough market share analysis can be drawn based on the product category. (1) Desktop computer: Due to the maturity of the market, it has become to be the situation that the bigger the stronger. Foxconn Technology has always been the leader in the market and dominates the largest market share.
-
(2) Laptops: Due to the intense price competition, the stagnation of market growth for years, and the abundance of suppliers, the market share of each company accounts for 10%~20% on average.
-
(3) Game console: Foxconn Technology is the leading manufacturer. There are a couple Japanese companies engaging in thus industry. However, there are few Taiwanese companies involved.
-
(4) Non-3Cs: The focus and development trend of each manufacturer is not the same. Therefore, the market share cannot be accurately analyzed. Nonetheless, cut-throat competitions are less common as each manufacturer has its own focal point in development and production.

Future market supply and demand and potential growth
-
A. Metal casing
From the supply aspect, there will be no new manufacturer joining the metal casing industry in the near future. Thus, there shouldn’t be much change in supply. The application metal casings are still mainly for high-end smart phones, business laptops, tablet computers and wearable devices. Therefore there is not much change in the overall demand, and in the relative competition positions in the supply chain. Thus, the the future supply and demand situation of the market is relatively stable.
As for potential growth, in terms of high-end smart phones, growth is mainly comes from the increase in unit price. The growth of business laptops mainly comes from the increase in penetration rate, while the growth of wearable devices comes from the increase in sales volume. No matter the sources of growth, we can expect a stable growth of metal casing industry in the future.
-90-
B. Thermal modules
The supply of the thermal industry varies with different products. The Company has been the main supplier for desktop computers and game consoles, and other manufacturers account only for a relatively small market share. The supply and demand are balanced and industrial price is stable. As for computer products, the number of suppliers is large. Due to the imbalance between supply and demand, the competition is intense and the price volatility is high. As for the thermal modules in other new applications, the development focuses of manufacturers are different, so the supply and demand are balanced and there was no cut-throat competition in the price.
As for the potential growth, the PC thermal module is in its mature stage with only little growth. The growth of the game console thermal module depends on the new model released each year. High growth is often expected in the first year, and followed by declines in the years after. As for the thermal modules in other new applications, as it is still in the introduction stage, the growth is good.

Competitive niche
-
A. Good capacity scheduling
With the rise of trade protectionism and the increasing demand for domestic manufacturing in various regions, how to quickly and smoothly respond to this trend has been a major challenge for the manufacturing industry. However, the Group posses great advantage to receive more orders as it has established factories in various regions, and potential competitors are not able to have land, plats and manpower in place, and complete all relative applications and registrations to start production in a short period of time as they are only starting. This is a challenge for competitors, but our advantage and competitive niche.
- B. Excellent product integration ability
As expected many years ago, due to the requirement for "light and thin", metal casings have been widely used in 3C products. Because of the trend for multi-function, the heat generated by portable products are getting higher. How to achieve efficient heat dissipation and also take into account the "light and thin" trend is the demand of the brand factory and the challenge of the OEMs. Foxconn Technology has started to produce these two products many years ago, and has related Know-How, and the technology and skills of integrating these two components. Therefore, this unique property will be Foxconn Technology’s unique competitive niche.
- C. Rapid mass production capacity
The company has been engaged in manufacturing businesses for decades and has been accumulating experience and developing excellent rapid mass production capabilities. This capability has helped customers solve many problems, and has won the trust of customers and obtained many orders. For example, in the past two years, there have been reports of competitors not delivering satisfactory yield-rate or efficient mass-production right before their customers’ release of new products, which in many cases, led to the transfer of orders to the Company. This is the results of the company's accumulation of
-91-
experience over the years, and is also a competition niche of the Company.
- D. Sufficient mass-production capability
The slife-cyle of 3C products has become shorter and shorter. Young consumers often want to get the latest and highest technology products in first time. If the waiting period is too long, there is possibility that consumers may turn to other products. Therefore, to successfully produce relative products in the earliest time possible to satisfy the demand of consumers is a responsibility and also essential survival skills of OEMs. With the accumulation of decades of manufacturing experience, Foxconn Technology has long possessed the mass-production capability, and the competition advantage.

IV. Most Recent Financial Reports
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (“ROC GAAS”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 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 consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion
-114-
thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 are stated as follows:
Revenue cutoff
Description
Refer to Note 4(29) for accounting policy on revenue recognition and Note 6(22) for details of revenues. The Group has three revenue types, including (1) direct shipment from the factory, (2) FOB destination, and (3) hub. For FOB destination and hub, revenue is recognised when goods are shipped to destination or picked up by customers (when control of the products is transferred). The supporting documents for revenue recognition include receipts from customers (FOB destination), reports or other information provided by hub custodians and inventory movement record of hub. As the hubs are located around the world with numerous custodians, the frequency and contents of statements provided by custodians vary, and the process of revenue recognition involves numerous manual procedures, these factors may potentially result in inaccurate timing of sales revenue recognition and discrepancy between the physical inventory quantities in the hubs and the quantities as reflected in accounting records.
Since there are numerous daily revenue from hubs and from FOB destination and the transaction amounts prior to and after the balance sheet date are significant to the financial statements, revenue cutoff has been identified as a key audit matter.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following key audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:
-
Evaluated and tested the Group’s internal controls over revenue recognition.
-
Tested sales transactions that took place shortly before and after the balance sheet date by verifying the customers’ receipt notes, supporting documents provided by hub custodian, and inventory movement records, and ascertained whether cost of goods sold was recognised in the correct reporting period.
-
Confirmed physical inventory quantities held by distribution warehouses and agreed to accounting records. Assessed the reasonableness of reconciling items identified through
-115-
confirmation or physical inventory, if any, and inspected related supporting documents and rationale.
Provision for inventory valuation losses
Description
Refer to Note 4(14) for accounting policies on inventory valuation, Note 5(2) for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions in relation to inventory valuation losses, and Note 6(7) for details of inventories. As at December 31, 2018, the Group’s inventories and provision for inventory valuation losses amounted NT$3,043,636 thousand and NT$138,194 thousand, respectively.
The Group is primarily engaged in manufacturing and sales of 3C electronic products. Due to rapid technological innovations, short electronic product life cycles and fluctuation of market prices, there is a higher risk of inventory losses arising from market value decline or obsolescence. The Group recognises inventories at the lower of cost and net realisable value, which is determined based on historical data of inventory closeout and range of discount. Inventory valuation losses are provided against inventory aged over a certain time period and individually identified as obsolete or damaged.
As the amounts of inventory are material, types of inventories vary, the identification of obsolete or damaged inventories and determination of net realisable value are subject to management and audit judgement, we consider provision for inventory valuation losses as a key audit matter.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:
-
A. Ensured consistent application of accounting policies on provision for inventory valuation losses and ascertain compliance with respective accounting guidance.
-
B. Validated the appropriateness of system logic of inventory aging report utilised by management in assessing inventory valuation losses and sampled and tested transactions for proper categorisation in inventory aging report.
-
C. Assessed the reasonableness of inventory valuation losses through discussion with management as to the determination of net realisable value of obsolete or damaged inventories and validating related supporting documents.
-116-
Other matter – Parent company only financial reports
We have audited and expressed an unmodified opinion on the parent company only financial statements of Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the consolidated financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance, including the Audit Committee, are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement,whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ROC GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and 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 these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-117-
-
A. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls.
-
B. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal controls.
-
C. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
D. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
E. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
F. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We 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.
-118-
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our 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.

FOXCONN TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
1. HISTORY AND ORGANISATION
The Company was originally known as Q-RUN Technology Co., Ltd. and established on April 26, 1990. On March 1, 2004, the Company merged with Foxconn Precision Components Co., Ltd. and was renamed as Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd. The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred herein as “the Group”) are primarily engaged in manufacturing, processing and sales of case, heat dissipation modules and consumer electronics products.
2. THE DATE OF AUTHORISATION FOR ISSUANCE OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND PROCEDURES FOR AUTHORISATION
These consolidated financial statements were authorised for issuance by the Board of Directors on March 27, 2019.
3. APPLICATION OF NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS
(1) Effect of the adoption of new issuances of or amendments to International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission (“FSC”)
New standards, interpretations and amendments endorsed by FSC effective from 2018 are as follows:
| New Standards,InterpretationsandAmendments | Effective Date by International Accounting StandardsBoard |
|---|---|
| Amendments to IFRS 2, ‘Classification and measurement of share-based payment transactions’ Amendments to IFRS 4, ‘Applying IFRS 9 Financial instruments with IFRS 4 Insurance contracts’ IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’ IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ Amendments to IFRS 15, ‘Clarifications to IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers’ Amendments to IAS 7, ‘Disclosure initiative’ Amendments to IAS 12, ‘Recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised losses’ Amendments to IAS 40, ‘Transfers of investment property’ IFRIC 22, ‘Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration’ Annual improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 cycle- Amendments to IFRS 1, ‘First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards’ Annual improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 cycle- Amendments to IFRS 12, ‘Disclosure of interests in other entities’ Annual improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 cycle- Amendments to IAS 28, ‘Investments in associates and joint ventures’ |
January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2017 January 1, 2017 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2017 January 1, 2018 |
The above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group’s financial condition and financial performance based on the Group’s assessment. The quantitative impact will be disclosed when the assessment is complete.
-127-
-
A. IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’
-
(a) Classification of debt instruments is driven by the entity’s business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets, which would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or financial asset measured at amortised cost. Equity instruments would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, unless an entity makes an irrevocable election at inception to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument that is not held for trading.
-
(b) The impairment losses of debt instruments are assessed using an ‘expected credit loss’ approach. An entity assesses at each balance sheet date whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition to recognise 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses (interest revenue would be calculated on the gross carrying amount of the asset before impairment losses occurred); or if the instrument that has objective evidence of impairment, interest revenue after the impairment would be calculated on the book value of net carrying amount (i.e. net of credit allowance). The Company shall always measure the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses for trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component.
-
(c) The Group has elected not to restate prior period financial statements using the modified retrospective approach under IFRS 9. For details of the significant effect as at January 1, 2018, please refer to Notes 12(4) B and C.
-
B. IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ and amendments
-
(a) The Group has elected not to restate prior period financial statements when initially applying IFRS 15.
-
(b) Presentation of assets and liabilities in relation to contracts with customers
The Group will recognise revenue in the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled. Revenue would not be recognised for products that the Group expects to be returned. The Group recognises a refund liability and an asset which are presented separately.
-
(c) Under IFRS 15, liabilities in relation to expected volume discounts and refunds to customers are recognised as refund liabilities, but were previously presented as accounts receivable - allowance for sales returns and discounts in the balance sheet. The balance was $64,929 on January 1, 2018.
-
(d) Please refer to Note 12(5) for other disclosures in relation to the first application of IFRS 15.
-
(2)Effect of new issuances of or amendments to IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC but not yet adopted by the Group
New standards, interpretations and amendments endorsed by the FSC effective from 2019 are as follows:
-128-
| New Standards,InterpretationsandAmendments | Effective Date by International Accounting StandardsBoard |
|---|---|
| Amendments to IFRS 9, ‘Prepayment features with negative compensation’ IFRS 16, ‘Leases’ Amendments to IAS 19, ‘Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement’ Amendments to IAS 28, ‘Long-term interests in associates and joint ventures’ IFRIC 23, ‘Uncertainty over income tax treatments’ Annual improvements to IFRSs 2015-2017 cycle |
January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 |
Effects of the Group’s financial condition and financial performance arising from the above standards and interpretations based on the Group’s assessment are as follows:
IFRS 16, ‘Leases’
IFRS 16, ‘Leases’ replaces IAS 17, ‘Leases’and related interpretations and SICs. The standard requires lessees to recognise a ‘right-of-use asset’ and a lease liability (except for those leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets). The accounting stays the same for lessors, which is to classify their leases as either finance leases or operating leases and account for those two types of leases differently. IFRS 16 only requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors.
The Group expects to recognise the lease contract of lessees in line with IFRS 16. However, the Group intends not to restate the financial statements of prior period (referred herein as the “modified retrospective approach”). On January 1, 2019, it is expected that ‘right-of-use asset’ and lease liability will be increased by $1,884,333 and $1,308,751, and other non-current assets will be decreased by $575,582.
(3) IFRSs issued by IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC
New standards, interpretations and amendments issued by IASB but not yet included in the IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC are as follows:
| New standards, interpretations and amendments issued by IASB but not endorsed by the FSC are as follows: |
yet included in the IFRSs |
|---|---|
| New Standards,InterpretationsandAmendments | Effective Date by International Accounting StandardsBoard |
| Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8, ‘Disclosure Initiative-Definition of Material’ Amendments to IFRS 3, ‘Definition of a business’ Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28, ‘Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture’ IFRS 17, ‘Insurance contracts’ |
January 1, 2020 January 1, 2020 To be determined by International Accounting Standards Board January 1, 2021 |
The above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group’s financial condition and financial performance based on the Group’s assessment.
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stat ed.
-129-
(1) Compliance statement
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the “IFRSs”).
(2) Basis of preparation
-
A. Except for the following items, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:
-
(a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.
-
(b) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income / Available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value.
-
(c) Defined benefit liabilities recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.
-
B. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.
-
C. In adopting IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 effective January 1, 2018, the Group has elected to apply modified retrospective approach whereby the cumulative impact of the adoption was recognised as retained earnings or other equity as of January 1, 2018 and the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 were not restated. The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 were prepared in compliance with International Accounting Standard 39 (‘IAS 39’), International Accounting Standard 11 (‘IAS 11’), International Accounting Standard 18 (‘IAS 18’) and related financial reporting interpretations. Please refer to Notes 12(4) and (5) for details of significant accounting policies and details of significant accounts.
(3) Basis of consolidation
-
A. Basis for preparation of consolidated financial statements:
-
(a) All subsidiaries are included in the Group’s consolidated financial statements. Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Consolidation of subsidiaries begins from the date the Group obtains control of the subsidiaries and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiaries.
-
(b) Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between companies within the Group are eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
-
(c) Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the noncontrolling interests having a deficit balance.
-130-
-
(d) Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent losing control of the subsidiary (transactions with non-controlling interests) are accounted for as equity transactions, i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity.
-
(e) When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value. That fair value is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset or the cost on initial recognition of the associate or joint venture. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary are reclassified to profit or loss.
-

(4) Foreign currency translation
The consolidated financial statements are presented in NTD, which is the Company’s functional and the Group’s presentation currency.
A. Foreign currency transactions and balances
-134-
-
(a) Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
-
(b) Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the period end are retranslated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising upon re-translation at the balance sheet date are recognised in profit or loss.
-
(c) Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through profit or loss are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through other comprehensive income are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. However, nonmonetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are not measured at fair value are translated using the historical exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
-
(d) All foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘other gains and losses’.
-
B. Translation of foreign operations
-
(a) The operating results and financial position of all the group entities, associates and joint arrangements that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
-
i. Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing exchange rate at the date of that balance sheet;
-
ii. Income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates of that period; and
-
iii. All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
-
-
(b) When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is an associate, exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale. In addition, even the Group still retains partial interest in the former foreign associate after losing significant influence over the former foreign associate, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in these foreign operations.
-
(c) When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is a subsidiary, cumulative exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately transferred to the non-controlling interest in this foreign operation. In addition, even the Group still retains partial interest in the former foreign subsidiary after losing control of the former foreign subsidiary, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in the foreign operation.
(5) Classification of current and non-current items
-
A. Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets:
-
(a) Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realised, or are intended to be sold or consumed within the normal operating cycle;
-135-
-
(b) Assets held mainly for trading purposes;
-
(c) Assets that are expected to be realised within twelve months from the balance sheet date;
-
(d) Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents and those that are to be exchanged or used to pay off liabilities more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.
-
B. Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities; otherwise they are classified as non-current liabilities:
-
(a) Liabilities that are expected to be paid off within the normal operating cycle;
-
(b) Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities;
-
(c) Liabilities that are to be paid off within twelve months from the balance sheet date;
-
(d) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
(6) Cash equivalents
Cash equivalents refer to short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Time deposits and bands sold under repru chase agveement that meet the definition above and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments in operations are classified as cash equivalents.
(7) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Effective 2018
-
A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets that are not measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. Financial assets at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income are designated as at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition when they eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency.
-
B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
C. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets at fair value and recognises the transaction costs in profit or loss. The Group subsequently measures the financial assets at fair value, and recognises the gain or loss in profit or loss.
-
D. The Group recognises the dividend income when the right to receive payment is established, future economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Group and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
(8) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
Effective 2018
-
A. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income comprise equity securities which are not held for trading, and for which the Group has made an irrevocable election at initial recognition to recognise changes in fair value in other comprehensive income and debt instruments which meet all of the following criteria:
-
(a) The objective of the Group’s business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash
-136-
flows and selling financial assets; and
-
(b) The assets’ contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.
-
B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
C. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets at fair value plus transaction costs. The Group subsequently measures the financial assets at fair value:
-
(a) The changes in fair value of equity investments that were recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to retained earnings and are not reclassified to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends are recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established, future economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Group and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
-
(b) Except for the recognition of impairment loss, interest income and gain or loss on foreign exchange which are recognised in profit or loss, the changes in fair value of debt instruments are taken through other comprehensive income. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss.
(9) Financial assets at amortised cost
Effective 2018
-
A. Financial assets at amortised cost are those that meet all of the following criteria:
-
(a) The objective of the Group’s business model is achieved by collecting contractual cash flows.
-
(b) The assets’ contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.
-
B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at amortised cost are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
C. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets at fair value plus transaction costs. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest method. A gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired.
-
D. The Group’s time deposits which do not fall under cash equivalents are those with a short maturity period and are measured at initial investment amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(10) Accounts and notes receivable
-
A. Accounts and notes receivable entitle the Group a legal right to receive consideration in exchange for transferred goods or rendered services.
-
B. The short-term accounts and notes receivable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(11) Impairment of financial assets
For debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets at amortised cost including accounts receivable or contract assets that have a significant financing component, at each reporting date, the Group recognises the impairment provision for 12 months expected credit losses if there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition or recognises the impairment provision for the lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) if such credit risk has increased since initial recognition after taking into consideration all reasonable and verifiable information that includes forecasts. On the other hand, for accounts receivable or
-137-
contract assets that do not contain a significant financing component, the Group recognises the impairment provision for lifetime ECLs.
(12) Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset expire.
(13) Operating leases (lessor)
Lease income from an operating lease (net of any incentives given to the lessee) is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
(14) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method. The cost of finished goods and work in process comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (allocated based on normal operating capacity). It excludes borrowing costs. The item by item approach is used in applying the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and applicable variable selling expenses.
(15) Investments accounted for under equity method / associates
-
A. Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. In general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly or indirectly 20 per cent or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognised at cost.
-
B. The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
-
C. When changes in an associate’s equity are not recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income of the associate and such changes do not affect the Group’s ownership percentage of the associate, the Group recognises change in ownership interests in the associate in ‘capital surplus’ in proportion to its ownership.
-
D. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
-
E. In the case that an associate issues new shares and the Group does not subscribe or acquire new shares proportionately, which results in a change in the Group’s ownership percentage of the associate but maintains significant influence on the associate, then ‘capital surplus’ and ‘investments accounted for under the equity method’ shall be adjusted for the increase or decrease of its share of equity interest. If the above condition causes a decrease in the Group’s ownership percentage of the associate, in addition to the above adjustment, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or
-138-
liabilities were disposed of.
-
F. Upon loss of significant influence over an associate, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former associate at its fair value. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.
-
G. When the Group disposes its investment in an associate and loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss, on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of. If it retains significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately in accordance with the aforementioned approach.
-
(16) Property, plant and equipment
-
A. Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Borrowing costs incurred during the construction period are capitalised.
-
B. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
-
C. Land is not depreciated. Other property, plant and equipment apply cost model and are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives. Each part of an item of property, plant, and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item must be depreciated separately.
-
D. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year-end. If expectations for the assets’ residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets’ future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, from the date of the change. The estimated useful lives for buildings and structures machinery and equipment and other equipment are 3~55 years, 1~10 years and 1~10 years, respectively.
(17) Investment property
An investment property is stated initially at its cost and measured subsequently using the cost model. Except for land, investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 8 ~ 55 years.
(18) Intangible assets
Goodwill
Goodwill arises in a business combination accounted for by applying the acquisition method.
(19) Impairment of non-financial assets
- A. The Group assesses at each balance sheet date the recoverable amounts of those assets where there is an indication that they are impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. Except for goodwill, when the circumstances or reasons for recognising impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer
-139-
exist or diminish, the impairment loss is reversed. The increased carrying amount due to reversal should not be more than what the depreciated or amortised historical cost would have been if the impairment had not been recognised.
-
B. The recoverable amounts of goodwill that have not yet been available for use are evaluated periodically. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment loss of goodwill previously recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed in the following years.
-
C. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash-generating units, or groups of cash-generating units, that is/are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is monitored at the operating segment level.
(20) Borrowings
-
A. Borrowings comprise long-term and short-term bank borrowings and other long-term and shortterm loans. Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
-
B. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the drawdown occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.
(21) Accounts and notes payable
-
A. Accounts payable are liabilities for purchases of raw materials, goods or services and notes payable are those resulting from operating and non-operating activities.
-
B. The short-term notes and accounts payable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(22) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
-
A. Financial liabilities are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorised as financial liabilities held for trading unless they are designated as hedges.
-
B. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial liabilities at fair value. All related transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss. The Group subsequently measures these financial liabilities at fair value with any gain or loss recognised in profit or loss.
(23) Derecognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is either discharged or cancelled or expires.
(24) Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and reported in the net amount in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
-140-
(25) Non-hedging derivatives
Non-hedging derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and recorded as financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. They are subsequently remeasured at fair value and the gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss.
(26) Employee benefits
- A. Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in respect of service rendered by employees in a period and should be recognised as expenses in that period when the employees render service.
-
B. Pensions
-
(a) Defined contribution plans
For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognised as pension expenses when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.
(b) Defined benefit plans
-
i. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Group in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The net defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount is determined by using interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) of a currency and term consistent with the currency and term of the employment benefit obligations.
-
ii. Remeasurements arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings.
iii. Past service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
- C. Employees’ compensation, directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration
Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognised as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates. If employees compensation is paid by shares, the Group calculates the number of shares based on the closing price at the previous day of the board meeting resolution�
(27) Income tax
-
A. The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or items recognised directly in equity, in which cases the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity.
-
B. The current income tax expense is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate
-141-
and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in accordance with applicable tax regulations. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. An additional tax is levied on the unappropriated retained earnings and is recorded as income tax expense in the year the stockholders resolve to retain the earnings.
-
C. Deferred tax is recognised, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated balance sheet. However, the deferred tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.
-
D. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. At each balance sheet date, unrecognised and recognised deferred tax assets are reassessed.
-
E. Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset on the balance sheet when the entity has the legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and they are levied by the same taxation authority on either the same entity or different entities that intend to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(28) Dividends
Dividends are recorded in the Company’s financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the Company’s shareholders. Cash dividends are recorded as liabilities; stock dividends are recorded as stock dividends to be distributed and are reclassified to ordinary shares on the effective date of new shares issuance.
(29) Revenue recognition
-
A. The Group is primarily engaged in manufacturing and sales of consumer electronics products. Sales are recognised when control of the products has transferred, being 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, or the Group has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
-
B. Revenue from these sales is recognised based on the price specified in the contract, net of the estimated sales discounts and allowances. Revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. The estimation is subject to an assessment at each reporting date. As the time interval between the transfer of committed goods or service and the payment of customer does not exceed one year, the Group does not adjust the transaction price to reflect the time value of money.
-142-
- C. A receivable is recognised when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.
(30) Government grants
Government grants are recognised at their fair value only when there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with any conditions attached to the grants and the grants will be received. Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognises expenses for the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate.
(31) Business combinations
-
A. The Group uses the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed and equity instruments issued at the acquisition date, plus the fair value of any assets and liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. All acquisitionrelated costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. For each business combination, the Group measures at the acquisition date components of non-controlling interests in the acquiree that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to the proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation at either fair value or the present ownership instruments’ proportionate share in the recognised amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. All other non-controlling interests should be measured at the acquisition-date fair value.
-
B. The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill at the acquisition date. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest in the acquiree recognised and the fair value of previously held equity interest in the acquiree is less than the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss on the acquisition date.
(32) Operating segments
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF
ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies and make critical assumptions and estimates concerning future events. Assumptions and estimates may differ from the actual results and are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors. Such assumptions and estimates have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year; and the related information is addressed below:
(1) Critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies
- A. Revenue recognition
The Group determines whether the nature of its performance obligation is to provide the specified goods or services itself (i.e. the Group is a principal) or to arrange for the other party to provide
-143-
those goods or services (i.e. the Group is an agent) based on the transaction model and its economic substance. The Group is a principal if it controls a promised good or service before it transfers the good or service to a customer. The Group recognises revenue at gross amount of consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services transferred. The Group is an agent if its performance obligation is to arrange for the provision of goods or services by another party. The Group recognises revenue at the amount of any fee or commission to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for arranging for the other party to provide its goods or services. Indicators that the Group controls the good or service before it is provided to a customer include the following:
The Group provides integrated electronics manufacturing services to meet the following criteria by judgment, and recognises revenue on a gross basis:
-
(a) The Group is primarily responsible for the provision of goods or services;
-
(b) The Group assumes the inventory risk before transferring the specified goods or services to the customer or after transferring control of the goods or services to the customer.
-
(c) The Group has discretion in establishing prices for the goods or services.
-
B. Offsetting financial instruments
The determination of whether the Group’s financial assets and liabilities are offset and reported in the net amount in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
Evaluation of inventories
As inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, the Group must determine the net realisable value of inventories on balance sheet date using judgements and estimates. Due to the rapid technology innovation, the Group evaluates the amounts of normal inventory consumption, obsolete inventories or inventories without market selling value on balance sheet date, and writes down the cost of inventories to the net realisable value. Such an evaluation of inventories is principally based on the demand for the products within the specified period in the future. Therefore, there might be material changes to the evaluation.
As of December 31, 2018, information on the carrying amount of inventories is provided in Note 6(7).

Under the defined benefit pension plan, two units are accrued for each year of service for the first 15 years and one unit for each additional year thereafter, subject to a maximum of 45 units. Pension benefits are based on the number of units accrued and the average monthly salaries and wages of the last 6 months prior to retirement. The Company and its domestic subsidiaries contribute monthly an amount equal to 2% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the retirement fund deposited with Bank of Taiwan, the trustee, under the name of the independent retirement fund committee.

Note: The amount included in interest income or expense is excluded.
(d)The Bank of Taiwan was commissioned to manage the Fund of the Company’s and domestic subsidiaries’ defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Fund’s annual investment and utilisation plan and the “Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilisation of the Labor Retirement Fund” (Article 6: The scope of utilisation for the Fund includes deposit in domestic or foreign financial institutions, investment in domestic or foreign listed, over-the-counter, or private placement equity securities, investment in domestic or foreign real estate securitisation products, etc.). With regard to the utilisation of the Fund, its minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall be no less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from two-year time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks. If the earnings is less than aforementioned rates, government shall make payment for the deficit after approval by the Regulator. The Company has no right to participate in managing and operating that fund and hence the Company is unable to disclose the classification of plan asset fair value in accordance with IAS 19 paragraph 142. The composition of fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 is given in the Annual Labor Retirement Fund Utilisation Report announced by the government.
- (e) The principal actuarial assumptions used were as follows:
| Discount rate Future salary increases |
Years endedDecember31, | Years endedDecember31, |
|---|---|---|
| 2018 ������ ����� |
2017 | |
| ����� | ||
| ����� |
Assumptions regarding future mortality experience are set based on actuarial advice in accordance with published statistics and experience in each territory.
-156-
Because the main actuarial assumption changed, the present value of defined benefit obligation is affected. The analysis was as follows:
| December31,2018 Effect on present value of defined benefit obligation December31,2017 Effect on present value of defined benefit obligation |
Increase Decrease 0.25% 0.25% ������ �������� � ������ �������� � Discount rate |

|---|---|---|---|
| Increase 0.25% ������ � ������ � |
Increase 0.25% ������� ������� |
Decrease 0.25% |
|
| ������ | |||
| ������ |
The sensitivity analysis above was based on one assumption which changed while the other conditions remain unchanged. In practice, more than one assumption may change all at once. The method of analysing sensitivity and the method of calculating net pension liability in the balance sheet are the same.
-
(f) Expected contributions to the defined benefit pension plans of the Group for the year ending December 31, 2019 are $1,600.
-
B. Defined contribution plans
-
(a) Effective July 1, 2005, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries have established a defined contribution pension plan (the “New Plan”) under the Labor Pension Act (the “Act”), covering all regular employees with R.O.C. nationality. Under the New Plan, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries contribute monthly an amount based on 6% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the employees’ individual pension accounts at the Bureau of Labor Insurance. The benefits accrued are paid monthly or in lump sum upon termination of employment.
-
(b) The subsidiaries in mainland China have defined contribution pension plans and the Group contributes an amount monthly based on 14%~20% of employees’ monthly salaries and wages to an independent fund administered by a government agency. The plan is administered by the government of mainland China. Other than the monthly contributions, the Group does not have further pension liabilities.
-
(c) The pension costs under the defined contribution pension plans of the Group for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $788,662 and $724,536, respectively.
(17) Share capital
As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s authorised capital was $15,000,000 (including subscription warrant or 50 million shares reserved for convertible bonds issued by the Company), outstanding ordinary shares were 1,414,485 thousand shares with a par value of $10 (in dollars) per share, and the paid-in capital was $14,144,852.
(18) Capital surplus
Pursuant to the R.O.C. Company Act, capital surplus arising from paid-in capital in excess of par value on issuance of common stocks and donations can be used to cover accumulated deficit or to issue new stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership, provided that the Company has no accumulated deficit. Further, the R.O.C. Securities and Exchange Law requires that the amount of capital surplus to be capitalised mentioned above should not exceed 10% of the
-157-
paid-in capital each year. Capital surplus should not be used to cover accumulated deficit unless the legal reserve is insufficient.
(19) Retained earnings
-
A. In accordance with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, current year’s earnings must be distributed in the following order:
-
(a) Covering accumulated deficit;
-
(b) Setting aside as legal reserve equal to 10% of current year’s net income after tax and distribution pursuant to clause (A);
-
(c) Setting aside a special reserve in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements;
The remaining earnings along with the unappropriated earnings at the beginning of the period are considered as accumulated distributable earnings. In accordance with dividend policy, the proposal of earnings appropriation is prepared by the Board of Directors and resolved by the shareholders.
The Company is at the growing stage. The Company’s stock dividend policy shall consider the Company’s current and future investment environment, capital needs, local and foreign competition situation and capital budget, along with shareholders’ profit and the Company’s long-term financial plans. The shareholders’ dividends are appropriated based on accumulated distributable earnings, which shall not be lower than 15% of the distributable earnings for the period and the cash dividends shall not be less than 10% of the shareholders’ dividends.
-
B. According to related regulations, 10% of the balance of earnings after tax less the accumulated loss of prior years should be set aside as legal reserve, until such legal reserve amount reaches the total authorised capital. Except for covering accumulated deficit or issuing new stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership, the legal reserve shall not be used for any other purpose. The use of legal reserve for the issuance of stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership is permitted, provided that the distribution of the reserve is limited to the portion in excess of 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital.
-
C. In accordance with the regulations, the Company shall set aside special reserve from the debit balance on other equity items at the balance sheet date before distributing earnings. When debit balance on other equity items is reversed subsequently, the reversed amount could be included in the distributable earnings.
-
D. The appropriations of earnings for 2017 and 2016 had been resolved at the stockholders’ meeting on June 22, 2018 and June 22, 2017, respectively. Details are summarised below:

(1) Capital management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to operate with the goal to provide returns for shareholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. The Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total
-172-
capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including “current and non-current borrowings” as shown in the consolidated balance sheet) less cash and cash equivalents. Total is calculated as “equity” as shown in the consolidated balance sheet less total intangible assets capital.
During 2018, the Group’s strategy, which was unchanged from 2017, was to maintain the gearing ratio below 70%.

B. Risk management policies
(a) Risk categories
The Group employs a comprehensive financial risk management and control system to clearly identify, measure and control the various kinds of financial risk it faces, including market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
(b) Management objectives:
-
i. Except for market risk, which is controlled by outside factors, the remainder of the foregoing types of risks can be controlled internally or removed from business processes. Therefore, the goal in managing each of these risks is to reduce them to zero.
-
ii. As for market risk, the goal is to optimize its overall position through strict analysis, suggestion, execution and audit processes, and proper consideration of a) long-term trends in the external economic/financial environment, b) internal operating conditions, and c) the actual effects of market fluctuations.
-
iii. The Group’s overall risk management policy focuses on the unpredictable items in financial markets and seeks to reduce the risk that potentially pose adverse effects on the Group’s financial position and financial performance.
-
iv. For the information on the derivative financial instruments that the Group enters into,
-173-
please refer to Note 6(2).
-
(c) Management system:
-
i. Risk management is executed by the Group’s finance department by following policies approved by the Board. Through cooperation with the Group's operating units, finance department is responsible for identifying, evaluating and hedging financial risks.
-
ii. The Board has a written policy covering overall risk management. It also has written policies covering specific issues, such as exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, derivative and non-derivative financial instruments used, and the investment of excess working capital.
-
-
C. Significant financial risks and degrees of financial risks
-
(a) Market risk
Foreign exchange risk
- i. Nature�
The Group is a multinational group in the Electronic manufacturing services industry. Most of the exchange rate risk from operating activities comes from:
-
(i) Foreign exchange risk arises from different exchange rates to functional currency as the invoice dates of accounts receivable and payable denominated in non-functional foreign currency are different. Because the amount after the assets and liabilities are offset is insignificant, income/loss is insignificant as well. (Note: The Group has several sites in various countries and thus is exposed to various foreign exchange risks. The main risk arises from USD and RMB.)
-
(ii) Changes in exchange rates of functional currencies to presentation currency at different timing will cause another foreign exchange risk.
-
(iii) Except for the above transactions (operating activities) recognised in the income statement, assets and liabilities recognised in the balance sheet and the net investment in foreign operations also result in the exchange rate risk.
-
ii. Management:
-
(i) For such risks, the Group has set up policies requiring companies in the Group manage its exchange rate risks.
-
(ii) As to the exchange rate risk arising from the difference between various functional currencies and the reporting currency in the consolidated financial statements, it is managed by the Group’s finance department.
-
iii. Sources of risk:
-
(i) U.S. dollars and NT dollars: Foreign exchange risk arises primarily from gains or losses from translating U.S. dollar-denominated assets, such as cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables and time deposits with maturity in excess of three months, and U.S. dollar-denominated liabilities, such as loans, accounts payable and other payables, into New Taiwan dollars.
-
(ii) U.S. dollars and RMB:
Foreign exchange risk arises primarily from U.S. dollar-denominated cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other receivables, other assets, loans, accounts
-174-
payable and other payables and other liabilities, which results in exchange loss or gain when they are translated into RMB.
iv. The information on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies whose values would be materially affected by the exchange rate fluctuations is as follows:

- v. Total exchange (loss) gain, including realised and unrealised arising from significant foreign exchange variation on the monetary items held by the Group for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 amounted to ($713,184) and $39,898, respectively.
Price risk
- i. Nature
The Group primarily invests in domestic and foreign publicly traded and unlisted equity instruments, which are accounted for as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income and available-for-sale financial assets. The price of those equity instruments will be affected by the uncertainty of the future value of the investment.
- ii. Extent
If the price of such equity instrument rises or falls by 1%, with all other factors held constant, the impact on other comprehensive income due to equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and available-for-sale equity instruments are $230,852 and $618,612, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
The Group’s interest rate risk arises from short-term loans. Short-term loans with floating rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk, but most of the risks are offset by cash and cash equivalents with variable interest rates.
If short-term loans interest rates rise or fall by 1%, with all other factors held constant, profit after tax would increase/decrease by $111,016 and $193,377 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
-
(b) Credit risk
-
i. Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments.
According to the Group’s credit policy, each local entity in the Group is responsible for managing and analyzing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Group assesses the credit quality of the customers by taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors to conduct its internal risk management.
Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. Major credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments, deposits and short-term investments with banks and financial institutions, and other financial instruments. The counterparties are banks with good credit quality, financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings and government agencies, so there is no significant default concerns and credit risk.
-
ii. If the contract payments were past due over 90 days based on the terms, there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition.
-
iii. The following indicators are used to determine whether the credit impairment of debt instruments has occurred:
-176-
-
(i) It becomes probable that the issuer will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation due to their financial difficulties;
-
(ii) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;
-
(iii) Default or delinquency in interest or principal repayments;
-
(iv) Adverse changes in national or regional economic conditions that are expected to cause a default.
-
iv. The ageing analysis of accounts receivable (including related parties) that were past due but not impaired is as follows:
| but not impaired is as follows: | ||
|---|---|---|
| Not past due 0 to 90 days 91 to 180 days 181 to 270 days 271 to 360 days Over 361 days |

December31,2017 |
| ���������� � ��������� ������ ������ ����� ������ ���������� � |
The above ageing analysis was based on past due date.
-
v. The Group assesses the expected credit losses of accounts receivable (including those from related parties) as follows:
-
(i) Accounts receivable are divided into segments according to the Group’s credit rating standards; expected credit losses for each segment are assessed based on the specific loss rate or provision matrix for the segment.
-
(ii) Loss rates are calculated based on past and current information, taking into account forward-looking information provided by the Business Indicators Database of the National Development Council and the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.
-
(iii) As of December 31, 2018, the loss allowance for accounts receivable (including those from related parties), assessed using loss rate or provision matrix, is as follows:

vii. Credit risk information for 2017 is provided in Note 12(4).
-
(c) Liquidity risk
-
i. Cash flow forecasting is performed by each of the operating entities of the Group and aggregated by Group treasury. Group treasury monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities at all times so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Group’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with internal balance sheet ratio targets and, if applicable external regulatory or legal requirements, for example, currency restrictions.
-
ii. The Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities and net-settled or gross-settled derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date for non-derivative financial liabilities and to the expected maturity date for derivative financial liabilities.
As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities (including short-term borrowings, accounts payable and other payables) and derivative financial liabilities (including foreign exchange contracts, cross currency swap contracts and forward foreign exchange contracts) will expire within 1 year.
(3) Fair value estimation
-
A. The different levels that the inputs to valuation techniques are used to measure fair value of financial and non-financial instruments have been defined as follows:
-
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. A market is regarded as active where a market in which transactions for the asset or liability takes place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of the Group’s investment in listed stocks is included in Level 1.
-178-
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The fair value of the Group’s investment in derivative instruments is included in Level 2.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
-
B. Fair value information of investment property at cost is provided in Note 6(11).

(b) The methods and assumptions the Group used to measure fair value are as follows:
- i. The instruments the Group used market quoted prices as their fair values (that is, Level 1) are listed below by characteristics:
-179-
Listed shares
Market quoted price Closing price
-
ii. The fair value of foreign investment fund is measured by reference to counterparty quotes.
-
iii. When assessing non-standard and low-complexity financial instruments, for example, debt instruments without active market, interest rate swap contracts, foreign exchange contracts and options, the Group adopts valuation technique that is widely used by market participants. The inputs used in the valuation method to measure these financial instruments are normally observable in the market.
-
iv. The valuation of derivative financial instruments is based on valuation model widely accepted by market participants, such as present value techniques and option pricing models. Forward exchange contracts are usually valued based on the current forward exchange rate.
-
v. The output of valuation model is an estimated value and the valuation technique may not be able to capture all relevant factors of the Group’s financial and non-financial instruments. Therefore, the estimated value derived using valuation model is adjusted accordingly with additional inputs, for example, liquidity risk and etc. In accordance with the Group’s management policies and relevant control procedures relating to the valuation models used for fair value measurement, management believes adjustment to valuation is necessary in order to reasonably represent the fair value of financial and nonfinancial instruments at the consolidated balance sheet. The inputs and pricing information used during valuation are carefully assessed and adjusted based on current market conditions.
-
vi. The Group takes into account adjustments for credit risks to measure the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments to reflect credit risk of the counterparty and the Group’s credit quality.
-
D. As Sharp Corporation held by the Group ended its lock-up period, the Group transferred the fair value from Level 2 to Level 1 at the end of the month when the event occurred.
-
E. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, there was no transfer into or out from Level 3.
(4) Effects on initial application of IFRS 9
-
A. Summary of significant accounting policies adopted for the year ended December 31, 2017:
-
(a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
-
i. Financial assets held for trading financial assets are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorised as financial assets held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Financial assets that meet one of the following criteria are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition:
-
(i) Hybrid (combined) contracts; or
-
(ii) They eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency; or
-
(iii) They are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.
-
-
-180-
-
ii. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
iii. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value. Related transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. These financial liabilities are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial liabilities are recognised in profit or loss.
-
(b) Available-for-sale financial assets
-
i. Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories.
-
ii. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, available-for-sale financial assets are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
iii. Available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs. These financial assets are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income. Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured or derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity instruments are presented in ‘financial assets measured at cost’.
-
(c) Loans and receivables
-
i. Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are loans and receivables originated by the entity. They are created by the entity by selling goods or providing services to customers in the ordinary course of business. They are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. However, short-term accounts receivable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
-
ii. Investments in debt instruments without active markets
-
(i) Investments in debt instrument without active market are loans and receivables not originated by the entity. They are bond investments with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, and also meet all of the following conditions:
-
a. Not designated on initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss;
-
b. Not designated on initial recognition as available-for-sale;
-
c. Not for which the holder may not recover substantially all of its initial investment, other than because of credit deterioration.
-
-
(ii) On a regular way purchase or sale basis, investments in debt instrument without active market are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
(iii) They are initially recognised at fair value on the trade date plus transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Amortisation of a premium or a discount on such assets is recognised in profit or loss.
-
-
(d) Impairment of financial assets
-
i. The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a
-181-
financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a “loss event”) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
-
ii. The criteria that the Group uses to determine whether there is objective evidence of an impairment loss is as follows:
-
(i) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;
-
(ii) A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
-
(iii) The Group, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, granted the borrower a concession that a lender would not otherwise consider;
-
(iv) It becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
-
(v) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;
-
(vi) Observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial asset in the group, including adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the group or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group;
-
(vii) Information about significant changes with an adverse effect that have taken place in the technology, market, economic or legal environment in which the issuer operates, and indicates that the cost of the investment in the equity instrument may not be recovered;
-
(viii)A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.
-
iii. When the Group assesses that there has been objective evidence of impairment and an impairment loss has occurred, accounting for impairment is made as follows according to the category of financial assets:
-
(i) Financial assets measured at amortised cost
The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate, and is recognised in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost that would have been at the date of reversal had the impairment loss not been recognised previously. Impairment loss is recognised and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.
-182-
- (ii) Available-for-sale financial assets
The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s acquisition cost (less any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss, and is reclassified from ‘other comprehensive income’ to ‘profit or loss’. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of an investment in a debt instrument increases, and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, such impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss of an investment in an equity instrument recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss is recognised and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.
- B. The reconciliations of carrying amount of financial assets transferred from December 31, 2017, IAS 39, to January 1, IFRS 9, were as follows:
| Available-for- sale-equity ���������� � � |
Debt instruments Other without active current assets markets � � � � ���������� ��������� |

| ���������� � ���������� |
-
(a) Under IAS 39, because the equity instruments which were classified as available-for-sale financial assets amounting to $61,861,247 were not held for the purpose of trading, they were reclassified as "financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (equity instruments)" amounting to $61,861,247 on initial application of IFRS 9.
-
(b) Under IAS 39, because the cash flows of debt instruments which were classified as debt instruments without active market amounting to $4,571,000, met the condition that it is intended to settle the principal and interest on the outstanding principal balance, they were reclassified as "financial assets at amortised cost" amounting to $4,571,100 on initial application of IFRS 9.
-
(c) Under IAS 39, capital guarantee financial products and time deposits with maturity in excess of three months were classified as “other current assets” amounting to $13,775,019 and $6,766,549, respectively, were reclassified as “financial assets at amortised cost” amounting to $20,541,568 in accordance with IFRS 9.
-

V. Most Recent Stand Alone Financial Statements Audited by CPAs
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, 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 financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (“ROC GAAS”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 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 current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole and, in
-208-
forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters for the Company’s parent company only financial statements of the year ended December 31, 2018 are stated as follows:
Revenue cutoff
Description
Refer to Note 4(26) for accounting policy on revenue recognition and Note 6(18) for details of revenues.
The Company has three revenue types, including (1) direct shipment from the factory, (2) FOB destination, and (3) hub. For FOB destination and hub, revenue is recognised when goods are shipped to destination or picked up by customers (when control of the products is transferred). The supporting documents for revenue recognition include receipts from customers (FOB destination), reports or other information provided by hub custodians and inventory movement record of hub. As the hubs are located around the world with numerous custodians, the frequency and contents of statements provided by custodians vary, and the process of revenue recognition involves numerous manual procedures, these factors may potentially result in inaccurate timing of sales revenue recognition and discrepancy between the physical inventory quantities in the hubs and the quantities as reflected in accounting records.
Since there are numerous daily revenue transactions from hubs and from FOB destination and the transaction amounts prior to and after the balance sheet date are significant to the financial statements, revenue cutoff has been identified as a key audit matter.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following key audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:
-
Evaluated and tested the Company’s internal controls over revenue recognition.
-
Tested sales transactions that took place shortly before and after the balance sheet date by verifying the customers’ receipt notes, supporting documents provided by hub custodian, and inventory movement records, and ascertained whether cost of goods sold was recognised in the correct reporting period.
-
Confirmed physical inventory quantities held by distribution warehouses and agreed to
-209-
accounting records. Assessed the reasonableness of reconciling items identified through confirmation or physical inventory, if any and inspected respective supporting documents and rationale.
Provision for inventory valuation losses
Description
Refer to Note 4(13) for accounting policies on inventory valuation, Note 5(2) for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions in relation to inventory valuation losses, and Note 6(6) for details of inventories.
The Company is primarily engaged in the sales of 3C electronic products manufactured by its subsidiaries. Due to rapid technological innovations, short electronic product life cycles and fluctuation of market prices, there is a higher risk of inventory losses arising from market value decline or obsolescence. The Company and its subsidiaries recognise inventories at the lower of cost and net realisable value which is determined based on historical data of inventory closeout and range of discount. Inventory valuation losses are provided against inventory aged over a certain time period and individually identified as obsolete or damaged.
As the amounts of the Company and its subsidiaries’ inventory are material, types of inventories vary, the identification of obsolete or damaged inventories and determination of net realisable value are subject to management and audit judgement, we consider provision for inventory valuation losses as a key audit matter.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:
-
A. Ensured consistent application of accounting policies on provision for inventory valuation losses and ascertain compliance with respective accounting guidance.
-
B. Validated the appropriateness of system logic of inventory aging report utilised by management in assessing inventory valuation losses and sampled and tested transactions for proper categorisation in inventory aging report.
-
C. Assessed the reasonableness of inventory valuation losses through discussion with management

as to the determination of net realisable value of obsolete or damaged inventories and validating related supporting documents.
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 parent company only financial statements in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless 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 parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ROC GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and 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 these parent company only financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
A. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial
-211-
statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
B. 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 Company’s internal controls.
-
C. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
D. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our report to the related disclosures in the parent company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
E. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
F. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. 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 those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with
-212-
relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
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 current period 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.

FOXCONN TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
1. HISTORY AND ORGANISATION
The Company was originally known as Q-RUN Technology Co., Ltd. and established on April 26, 1990. On March 1, 2004, the Company merged with Foxconn Precision Components Co., Ltd. and was renamed as Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd. The Company is primarily engaged in manufacturing, processing and sales of case, heat dissipation modules and consumer electronics products.
2. THE DATE OF AUTHORISATION FOR ISSUANCE OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND
PROCEDURES FOR AUTHORISATION
The accompanying parent company only financial statements were authorised for issuance by the Board of Directors on March 27, 2019.
3. APPLICATION OF NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS
-
(1) Effect of the adoption of new issuances of or amendments to International Financial Reporting
-
Standards (“IFRS”) as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission (“FSC”)
New standards, interpretations and amendments endorsed by FSC effective from 2018 are as follows:
| New Standards,InterpretationsandAmendments | Effective Date by International Accounting StandardsBoard |
|---|---|
| Amendments to IFRS 2, ‘Classification and measurement of share-based payment transactions’ Amendments to IFRS 4, ‘Applying IFRS 9 Financial instruments with IFRS 4 Insurance contracts’ IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’ IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ Amendments to IFRS 15, ‘Clarifications to IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers’ Amendments to IAS 7, ‘Disclosure initiative’ Amendments to IAS 12, ‘Recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised losses’ Amendments to IAS 40, ‘Transfers of investment property’ IFRIC 22, ‘Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration’ Annual improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 cycle - Amendments to IFRS 1, ‘First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards’ Annual improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 cycle - Amendments to IFRS 12, ‘Disclosure of interests in other entities’ Annual improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 cycle - Amendments to IAS 28, ‘Investments in associates and joint ventures’ |
January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2017 January 1, 2017 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2017 January 1, 2018 |
-219-
The above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Company’s financial condition and financial performance based on the Company’s assessment. The quantitative impact will be disclosed when the assessment is complete.
A. IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’
-
(a) Classification of debt instruments is driven by the entity’s business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets, which would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or financial asset measured at amortised cost. Equity instruments would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, unless an entity makes an irrevocable election at inception to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument that is not held for trading.
-
(b) The impairment losses of debt instruments are assessed using an ‘expected credit loss’ approach. An entity assesses at each balance sheet date whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition to recognise 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses (interest revenue would be calculated on the gross carrying amount of the asset before impairment losses occurred); or if the instrument that has objective evidence of impairment, interest revenue after the impairment would be calculated on the book value of net carrying amount (i.e. net of credit allowance). The Company shall always measure the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses for trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component.
-
(c) The Company has elected not to restate prior period financial statements using the modified retrospective approach under IFRS 9. For details of the significant effect as at January 1, 2018, please refer to Notes 12(4) B and C.
-
B. IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ and amendments
-
(a) The Company has elected not to restate prior period financial statements when initially applying IFRS 15.
-
(b) Presentation of assets and liabilities in relation to contracts with customers
The Company will recognise revenue at the amount of consideration which the Company expects to be entitled. Revenue is not recognised for products that the Company expects to be returned. The Company recognises a refund liability and an asset, and the asset is presented separately from the refund liability.
- (c) Under IFRS 15, liabilities in relation to expected volume discounts and refunds to customers are recognised as refund liabilities, but were previously presented as accounts receivable -
-220-
allowance for sales returns and discounts in the balance sheet. The balance was $52,399 on January 1, 2018.
(d) Please refer to Note 12(5) for other disclosures in relation to the first application of IFRS 15.
(2) Effect of new issuances of or amendments to IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC but not yet adopted by
the Company
New standards, interpretations and amendments endorsed by the FSC effective from 2019 are as follows:
| New Standards,InterpretationsandAmendments | Effective Date by International Accounting StandardsBoard |
|---|---|
| Amendments to IFRS 9, ‘Prepayment features with negative compensation’ IFRS 16, ‘Leases’ Amendments to IAS 19, ‘Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement’ Amendments to IAS 28, ‘Long-term interests in associates and joint ventures’ IFRIC 23, ‘Uncertainty over income tax treatments’ Annual improvements to IFRSs 2015-2017 cycle |
January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 |
Effects on the Company’s financial condition and financial performance arising from the above standards and interpretations based on the Company’s assessment are as follows:
IFRS 16, ‘Leases’
IFRS 16, ‘Leases’ replaces IAS 17, ‘Leases’and related interpretations and SICs. The standard requires lessees to recognise a ‘right-of-use asset’ and a lease liability (except for those leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets). The accounting stays the same for lessors, which is to classify their leases as either finance leases or operating leases and account for those two types of leases differently. IFRS 16 only requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors.
The Company expects to recognise the lease contract of lessees in line with IFRS 16. However, the Company intends not to restate the financial statements of prior period (referred herein as the “modified retrospective approach”). On January 1, 2019, it is expected that ‘right-of-use asset’ and lease liability will both be increased by $2,687, and there is no impact on retained earnings.
(3) IFRSs issued by IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC
New standards, interpretations and amendments issued by IASB but not yet included in the IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC are as follows:
-221-
Effective Date by International Accounting New Standards, Interpretations and Amendments Standards Board Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8, ‘Disclosure Initiative-Definition January 1, 2020 of Material’ Amendments to IFRS 3, ‘Definition of a business’ January 1, 2020 Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28, ‘Sale or contribution of assets To be determined by between an investor and its associate or joint venture’ International Accounting Standards Board IFRS 17, ‘Insurance contracts’ January 1, 2021
The above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Company’s financial condition and financial performance based on the Company’s assessment.
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying parent company only financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stat ed.
(1) Compliance statement
The accompanying parent company only financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the “IFRSs”).
(2) Basis of preparation
-
A. Except for the following items, the accompanying parent company only financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:
-
(a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.
-
(b) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income / Available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value.
-
(c) Defined benefit liabilities recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.
-
B. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the accompanying parent company only financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.
-222-
-
C. In adopting IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 effective January 1, 2018, the Company has elected to apply modified retrospective approach whereby the cumulative impact of the adoption was recognised as retained earnings or other equity as of January 1, 2018 and the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 were not restated. The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 were prepared in compliance with International Accounting Standard 39 (‘IAS 39’), International Accounting Standard 11 (‘IAS 11’), International Accounting Standard 18 (‘IAS 18’) and related financial reporting interpretations. Please refer to Notes 12(4) and (5) for details of significant accounting policies and details of significant accounts.
-
(3) Foreign currency translation
The accompanying parent company only financial statements are presented in New Taiwan dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.
-
A. Foreign currency transactions and balances
-
(a) Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
-
(b) Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the period end are retranslated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising upon re-translation at the balance sheet date are recognised in profit or loss.
-
(c) Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through profit or loss are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through other comprehensive income are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. However, nonmonetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are not measured at fair value are translated using the historical exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
-
(d) All foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘other gains and losses’.
-
B. Translation of foreign operations
-
(a) The operating results and financial position of all the company, associates and joint arrangements that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
-223-
-
i. Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing exchange rate at the date of that balance sheet;
-
ii. Income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates of that period; and
iii. All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
- (b) When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is an associate, exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale.
- (c) When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is a subsidiary, cumulative exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately transferred to the non-controlling interest in this foreign operation. In addition, even the Company still retains partial interest in the former foreign subsidiary after losing control of the former foreign subsidiary, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in the foreign operation.

(4) Classification of current and non-current items
-
A. Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets:
-
(a) Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realised, or are intended to be sold or consumed within the normal operating cycle;
-
(b) Assets held mainly for trading purposes;
-
(c) Assets that are expected to be realised within twelve months from the balance sheet date;
-
(d) Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents and those that are to be exchanged or used to pay off liabilities more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.
-
-
B. Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities; otherwise they are classified as non-current liabilities:
-
(a) Liabilities that are expected to be paid off within the normal operating cycle;
-
(b) Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities;
-
(c) Liabilities that are to be paid off within twelve months from the balance sheet date;
-
(d) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the
-
-224-
counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
(5) Cash equivalents
Cash equivalents refer to short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Time deposits and bands sold under repru chase agveement that meet definition above and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments in operations are classified as cash equivalents.
(6) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Effective 2018
-
A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets that are not measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. Financial assets at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income are designated as at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition when they eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency.
-
B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
C. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets at fair value and recognises the transaction costs in profit or loss. The Company subsequently measures the financial assets at fair value, and recognises the gain or loss in profit or loss.
-
D. The Company recognises the dividend income when the right to receive payment is established, future economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
(7) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
Effective 2018
-
A. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income comprise equity securities which are not held for trading, and for which the Company has made an irrevocable election at initial recognition to recognise changes in fair value in other comprehensive income and debt instruments which meet all of the following criteria:
-
(a) The objective of the Company’s business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and
-
(b) The assets’ contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.
-
B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-225-
-
C. At initial recognition, the Company measures the financial assets at fair value plus transaction costs. The Company subsequently measures the financial assets at fair value:
-
(a) The changes in fair value of equity investments that were recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to retained earnings and are not reclassified to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends are recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established, future economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Group and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
-
(b) Except for the recognition of impairment loss, interest income and gain or loss on foreign exchange which are recognised in profit or loss, the changes in fair value of debt instruments are taken through other comprehensive income. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss.
(8) Financial assets at amortised cost
Effective 2018
-
A. Financial assets at amortised cost are those that meet all of the following criteria:
-
(a) The objective of the Company’s business model is achieved by collecting contractual cash flows.
-
(b) The assets’ contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.
-
B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at amortised cost are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
C. At initial recognition, the Company measures the financial assets at fair value plus transaction costs. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest method. A gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired.
The Company’s time deposits which do not fall under cash equivalents are those with a short maturity period and are measured at initial investment amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(9) Accounts and notes receivable
-
A. Accounts and notes receivable entitle the Company a legal right to receive consideration in exchange for transferred goods or rendered services.
-
B. The short-term accounts and notes receivable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(10) Impairment of financial assets
For debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial
-226-
assets at amortised cost including accounts receivable or contract assets that have a significant financing component, at each reporting date, the Company recognises the impairment provision for 12 months expected credit losses if there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition or recognises the impairment provision for the lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) if such credit risk has increased since initial recognition after taking into consideration all reasonable and verifiable information that includes forecasts. On the other hand, for accounts receivable or contract assets that do not contain a significant financing component, the Company recognises the impairment provision for lifetime ECLs.
- (11) Derecognition of financial assets
The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset expire.
- (12) Operating leases (lessor)
Lease income from an operating lease (net of any incentives given to the lessee) is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
- (13) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method. The cost of finished goods and work in process comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (allocated based on normal operating capacity). It excludes borrowing costs. The item by item approach is used in applying the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and applicable variable selling expenses.
-
(14) Investments accounted for under equity method / associates
-
A. Subsidiary is an entity where the Company has the right to dominate its finance and operation policies (includes special purpose entity), normally the Company owns more than 50 percent of the voting rights directly or indirectly in that entity. Subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method in the Company's parent company only financial statements.
-
B. Unrealised gains or losses resulted from inter-company transactions with subsidiaries are eliminated. Necessary adjustments are made to the accounting policies of subsidiaries, to be consistent with the accounting policies of the Company.
-
C. After acquisition of subsidiaries, the Company recognises proportionately for the share of profit and loss and other comprehensive incomes in the income statement as part of the Company's profit and loss and other comprehensive income, respectively. When the share of loss from a subsidiary exceeds the carrying amount of Company's interests in that subsidiary, the Company continues to recognise its shares in the subsidiary's loss proportionately.
-
D. Associates are all entities over which the Company has significant influence but not control. In
-227-
general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly or indirectly 20 per cent or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognised at cost.
-
E. The Company’s share of its investements’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Company’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Company does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
-
F. When changes in an associate’s equity are not recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income of the associate and such changes do not affect the Company’s ownership percentage of the associate, the Company recognises change in ownership interests in the associate in ‘capital surplus’ in proportion to its ownership.
-
G. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Company and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company.
-
H. In the case that an associate issues new shares and the Company does not subscribe or acquire new shares proportionately, which results in a change in the Company’s ownership percentage of the associate but maintains significant influence on the associate, then ‘capital surplus’ and ‘investments accounted for under the equity method’ shall be adjusted for the increase or decrease of its share of equity interest. If the above condition causes a decrease in the Company’s ownership percentage of the associate, in addition to the above adjustment, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of.
-
I. Upon loss of significant influence over an associate, the Company remeasures any investment retained in the former associate at its fair value. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.
-
J. When the Company disposes its investment in an associate and loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss, on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of. If it retains significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate
-228-
are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately in accordance with the aforementioned approach.
-
K. When the Company disposes its investment in an associate and loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised as capital surplus in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss. If it retains significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised as capital surplus in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss proportionately.
-
L. According to “Rules Governing the Preparations of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers”, 'profit for the year' and 'other comprehensive income for the year' reported in an entity's parent company only statement of comprehensive income, shall equal to 'profit for the year' and 'other comprehensive income' attributable to owners of the parent reported in that entity's consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Total equity reported in an entity's parent company only financial statements, shall be equal to the equity attributable to owners of parent reported in that entity's consolidated financial statements.
(15) Property, plant and equipment
-
A. Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Borrowing costs incurred during the construction period are capitalised.
-
B. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
-
C. Land is not depreciated. Other property, plant and equipment apply cost model and are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives. Each part of an item of property, plant, and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item must be depreciated separately.
-
D. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year-end. If expectations for the assets’ residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets’ future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, from the date of the change. The estimated useful lives for buildings and structures machinery and equipment and other equipment are 3~55 years, 1~10 years and 1~10 years, respectively.
-229-
(16) Investment property
An investment property is stated initially at its cost and measured subsequently using the cost model. Except for land, investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 8 ~ 55 years.
(17) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date the recoverable amounts of those assets where there is an indication that they are impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. When the circumstances or reasons for recognising impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer exist or diminish, the impairment loss is reversed. The increased carrying amount due to reversal should not be more than what the depreciated or amortised historical cost would have been if the impairment had not been recognised.
(18) Borrowings
-
A. Borrowings comprise long-term and short-term bank borrowings and other long-term and shortterm loans. Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
-
B. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.
(19) Accounts and notes payable
-
A. Accounts payable are liabilities for purchases of raw materials, goods or services and notes payable are those resulting from operating and non-operating activities.
-
B. The short-term notes and accounts payable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(20) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
-
A. Financial liabilities are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorised as financial liabilities held for trading unless they are designated as hedges.
-
B. At initial recognition, the Company measures the financial liabilities at fair value. All related transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss. The Company subsequently measures these
-230-
financial liabilities at fair value with any gain or loss recognised in profit or loss.
(21) Derecognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is either discharged or cancelled or expires.
(22) Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and reported in the net amount in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(23) Employee benefits
- A. Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in respect of service rendered by employees in a period and should be recognised as expenses in that period when the employees render service.
- B. Pensions
(a) Defined contribution plans
For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognised as pension expenses when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.
(b) Defined benefit plans
-
i. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Company in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The net defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount is determined by using interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) of a currency and term consistent with the currency and term of the employment benefit obligations.
-
ii. Remeasurements arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings.
iii. Past service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
- C. Employees’ compensation, directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration
-231-
Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognised as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates. If employees compensation is paid by shares, the Group calculates the number of shares based on the closing price at the previous day of the board meeting resolution�
-
(24) Income tax
-
A. The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or items recognised directly in equity, in which cases the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity.
-
B. The current income tax expense is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in accordance with applicable tax regulations. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. An additional tax is levied on the unappropriated retained earnings and is recorded as income tax expense in the year the stockholders resolve to retain the earnings.
-
C. Deferred tax is recognised, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated balance sheet. However, the deferred tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Company and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.
-
D. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. At each balance sheet date, unrecognised and recognised deferred tax assets are reassessed.
-
E. Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset on the balance sheet when the entity has the legally
-232-
enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and they are levied by the same taxation authority on either the same entity or different entities that intend to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(25) Dividends
Dividends are recorded in the Company’s financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the Company’s shareholders. Cash dividends are recorded as liabilities; stock dividends are recorded as stock dividends to be distributed and are reclassified to ordinary shares on the effective date of new shares issuance.
(26) Revenue recognition
-
A. The Company is primarily engaged in manufacturing and sales of consumer electronics products. Sales are recognised when control of the products has transferred, being 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, or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
-
B. Revenue from these sales is recognised based on the price specified in the contract, net of the estimated sales discounts and allowances. Revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. The estimation is subject to an assessment at each reporting date. As the time interval between the transfer of committed goods or service and the payment of customer does not exceed one year, the Company does not adjust the transaction price to reflect the time value of money.
-
C. A receivable is recognised when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY
The preparation of the accompanying parent company only financial statements requires management to make critical judgements in applying the Company’s accounting policies and make critical assumptions and estimates concerning future events. Assumptions and estimates may differ from the actual results and are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors. Such assumptions and estimates have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year; and the related information is addressed below:
-233-
(1) Critical judgements in applying the Company’s accounting policies
- A. Revenue recognition
The Company determines whether the nature of its performance obligation is to provide the specified goods or services itself (i.e. the Company is a principal) or to arrange for the other party to provide those goods or services (i.e. the Company is an agent) based on the transaction model and its economic substance. The Company is a principal if it controls a promised good or service before it transfers the good or service to a customer. The Company recognises revenue at gross amount of consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services transferred. The Company is an agent if its performance obligation is to arrange for the provision of goods or services by another party. The Company recognises revenue at the amount of any fee or commission to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for arranging for the other party to provide its goods or services. Indicators that the Company controls the good or service before it is provided to a customer include the following:
The Company provides integrated electronics manufacturing services to meet the following criteria by judgment, and recognises revenue on a gross basis:
-
(a) The Company is primarily responsible for the provision of goods or services;
-
(b) The Company assumes the inventory risk before transferring the specified goods or services to the customer or after transferring control of the goods or services to the customer.
-
(c) The Company has discretion in establishing prices for the goods or services.
(2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
- Evaluation of inventories
As inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, the Company must determine the net realisable value of inventories on balance sheet date using judgements and estimates. Due to the rapid technology innovation, the Company evaluates the amounts of normal inventory consumption, obsolete inventories or inventories without market selling value on balance sheet date, and writes down the cost of inventories to the net realisable value. Such an evaluation of inventories is principally based on the demand for the products within the specified period in the future. Therefore, there might be material changes to the evaluation.
As of December 31, 2018, information on the carrying amount of inventories is provided in Note 6(6).

Under the defined benefit pension plan, two units are accrued for each year of service for the first 15 years and one unit for each additional year thereafter, subject to a maximum of 45 units. Pension benefits are based on the number of units accrued and the average monthly salaries and wages of the last 6 months prior to retirement. The Company contributes monthly an amount equal to 2% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the retirement fund deposited with Bank of Taiwan, the trustee, under the name of the independent retirement fund committee.

(d)The Bank of Taiwan was commissioned to manage the Fund of the Company’s defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Fund’s annual investment and utilisation plan and the
-242-
“Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilisation of the Labor Retirement Fund” (Article 6: The scope of utilisation for the Fund includes deposit in domestic or foreign financial institutions, investment in domestic or foreign listed, over-the-counter, or private placement equity securities, investment in domestic or foreign real estate securitisation products, etc.). With regard to the utilisation of the Fund, its minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall be no less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from two-year time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks. If the earnings is less than aforementioned rates, government shall make payment for the deficit after approval by the Regulator. The Company has no right to participate in managing and operating that fund and hence the Company is unable to disclose the classification of plan asset fair value in accordance with IAS 19 paragraph 142. The composition of fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 is given in the Annual Labor Retirement Fund Utilisation Report announced by the government.
- (e) The principal actuarial assumptions used were as follows:
| Discount rate Future salary increases |
Years endedDecember31, | Years endedDecember31, |
|---|---|---|
| 2018 ������ ����� |
2017 | |
| ����� | ||
| ����� |
Assumptions regarding future mortality experience are set based on actuarial advice in accordance with published statistics and experience in each territory.
Because the main actuarial assumption changed, the present value of defined benefit obligation is affected. The analysis was as follows:
| December31,2018 Effect on present value of defined benefit obligation December31,2017 Effect on present value of defined benefit obligation |
Increase Decrease 0.25% 0.25% ������ �������� � ������ �������� � Discount rate |

| Increase 0.25% ������ � ������ � |
Increase 0.25% ������� ������� |
Decrease 0.25% |
|
| ������ | |||
| ������ |
The sensitivity analysis above was based on one assumption which changed while the other conditions remain unchanged. In practice, more than one assumption may change all at once. The method of analysing sensitivity and the method of calculating net pension liability in the balance sheet are the same.
-
(f) Expected contributions to the defined benefit pension plans of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2019 are $1,600.
-
B. Defined contribution plans

-243-
sum upon termination of employment.
-
(b) The pension costs under the defined contribution pension plans of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $11,076 and $11,230, respectively.

(15) Capital surplus
Pursuant to the R.O.C. Company Act, capital surplus arising from paid-in capital in excess of par value on issuance of common stocks and donations can be used to cover accumulated deficit or to issue new stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership, provided that the Company has no accumulated deficit. Further, the R.O.C. Securities and Exchange Law requires that the amount of capital surplus to be capitalised mentioned above should not exceed 10% of the paid-in capital each year. Capital surplus should not be used to cover accumulated deficit unless the legal reserve is insufficient.
-
(16) Retained earnings
-
A. In accordance with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, current year’s earnings must be distributed in the following order:
-
(a) Covering accumulated deficit;
-
(b) Setting aside as legal reserve equal to 10% of current year’s net income after tax and distribution pursuant to clause (A);
-
(c) Setting aside a special reserve in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements;
-
The remaining earnings along with the unappropriated earnings at the beginning of the period are considered as accumulated distributable earnings. In accordance with dividend policy, the proposal of earnings appropriation is prepared by the Board of Directors and resolved by the shareholders.
The Company is at the growing stage. The Company’s stock dividend policy shall consider the Company’s current and future investment environment, capital needs, local and foreign competition situation and capital budget, along with shareholders’ profit and the Company’s long-term financial plans. The shareholders’ dividends are appropriated based on accumulated distributable earnings, which shall not be lower than 15% of the distributable earnings for the period and the cash dividends shall not be less than 10% of the shareholders’ dividends.
- B. According to related regulations, 10% of the balance of earnings after tax less the accumulated loss of prior years should be set aside as legal reserve, until such legal reserve amount reaches the total authorised capital. Except for covering accumulated deficit or issuing new stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership, the legal reserve shall not be used
-244-
for any other purpose. The use of legal reserve for the issuance of stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership is permitted, provided that the distribution of the reserve is limited to the portion in excess of 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital.
-
C. In accordance with the regulations, the Company shall set aside special reserve from the debit balance on other equity items at the balance sheet date before distributing earnings. When debit balance on other equity items is reversed subsequently, the reversed amount could be included in the distributable earnings.
-
D. The appropriations of earnings for 2017 and 2016 had been resolved at the stockholders’ meeting on June 22, 2018 and June 22, 2017, respectively. Details are summarised below:

(1) Capital management
The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to operate with the goal to provide returns for shareholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. The Company monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings (including “current and noncurrent borrowings” as shown in the consolidated balance sheet) less cash and cash equivalents. Total is calculated as “equity” as shown in the consolidated balance sheet less total intangible assets capital.
During 2018, the Company’s strategy, which was unchanged from 2017, was to maintain the gearing ratio below 70%.

B. Risk management policies
-
(a) Risk categories
The Company employs a comprehensive financial risk management and control system to clearly identify, measure and control the various kinds of financial risk it faces, including market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
-
(b) Management objectives:
-
i. Except for market risk, which is controlled by outside factors, the remainder of the foregoing types of risks can be controlled internally or removed from business processes. Therefore, the goal in managing each of these risks is to reduce them to zero.
-
ii. As for market risk, the goal is to optimize its overall position through strict analysis, suggestion, execution and audit processes, and proper consideration of a) long-term trends in the external economic/financial environment, b) internal operating conditions, and c) the actual effects of market fluctuations.
-
iii. The Company’s overall risk management policy focuses on the unpredictable items in financial markets and seeks to reduce the risk that potentially pose adverse effects on the Company’s financial position and financial performance.
-
iv. For the information on the derivative financial instruments that the Company enters into, please refer to Note 6(2).
-
-
(c) Management system:
-
i. Risk management is executed by the Company’s finance department by following policies approved by the Board. Through cooperation with the Company's operating units, finance department is responsible for identifying, evaluating and hedging financial risks.
-
ii. The Board has a written policy covering overall risk management. It also has written policies covering specific issues, such as exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, derivative and non-derivative financial instruments used, and the investment of excess working capital.
-
-
C. Significant financial risks and degrees of financial risks
-
(a) Market risk
Foreign exchange risk
- i. Nature�
The Company is a multinational group in the Electronic manufacturing services industry. Most of the exchange rate risk from operating activities comes from:
-
(i) Foreign exchange risk arises from different exchange rates to functional currency as the invoice dates of accounts receivable and payable denominated in non-functional foreign currency are different. Because the amount after the assets and liabilities are offset is insignificant, income/loss is insignificant as well. (Note: The Company has several sites in various countries and thus is exposed to various foreign exchange risks. The main risk arises from USD and RMB.)
-
(ii) Changes in exchange rates of functional currencies to presentation currency at different timing will cause another foreign exchange risk.
-255-
-
(iii) Except for the above transactions (operating activities) recognised in the income statement, assets and liabilities recognised in the balance sheet and the net investment in foreign operations also result in the exchange rate risk.
-
ii. Management:
-
(i) For such risks, the Company has set up policies requiring the Company to manage its exchange rate risks.
-
(ii) As to the exchange rate risk arising from the difference between various functional currencies and the reporting currency in the parent company only financial statements, it is managed by the Company’s finance department.
-
iii. Sources of risk:
-
U.S. dollars and NT dollars:
Foreign exchange risk arises primarily from gains or losses from translating U.S. dollardenominated assets, such as cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables and time deposits mature in excess of three months, and U.S. dollar-denominated liabilities, such as loans, accounts payable and other payables, into New Taiwan dollars.
- iv. The information on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies whose values would be materially affected by the exchange rate fluctuations is as follows:

- v. Total exchange (loss) gain, including realised and unrealised arising from significant foreign exchange variation on the monetary items held by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 amounted to ($738,994) and $304,086, respectively.
Price risk
- i. Nature
The Company primarily invests in domestic and foreign publicly traded and unlisted equity instruments, which are accounted for as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income and available-for-sale financial assets. The price of those equity
-257-
instruments will be affected by the uncertainty of the future value of the investment.
- ii. Extent
If the price of such equity instrument rises or falls by 1%, with all other factors held constant, the impact on other comprehensive income due to equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and available-for-sale equity instruments are $14,158 and $17,913, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
The Company’s interest rate risk arises from short-term loans. Short-term loans with floating rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk, but most of the risks are offset by cash and cash equivalents with variable interest rates.
If short-term loans interest rates rise or fall by 1%, with all other factors held constant, profit after tax would decrease/increase by $109,513 and $186,329 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Company arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments.
- i. According to the Company’s credit policy, the Company is responsible for managing and analyzing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Company assesses the credit quality of the customers by taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors to conduct its internal risk management.
Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. Major credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments, deposits and short-term investments with banks and financial institutions, and other financial instruments. The counterparties are banks with good credit quality, financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings and government agencies, so there is no significant default concerns and credit risk.
-
ii. If the contract payments were past due over 90 days based on the terms, there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition.
-
iii. The following indicators are used to determine whether the credit impairment of debt instruments has occurred:
-
(i) It becomes probable that the issuer will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation due to their financial difficulties;
-
(ii) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;
-
(iii) Default or delinquency in interest or principal repayments;
-
(iv) Adverse changes in national or regional economic conditions that are expected to cause a default.
-
iv. The ageing analysis of accounts receivable (including related parties) that were past due but not impaired is as follows:
-258-
| Not past due 0 to 90 days 91 to 180 days 181 to 270 days 271 to 360 days Over 361 days |

December31,2017 |
|---|---|---|
| ���������� � ������� ��� � � ��� ���������� � |
The above ageing analysis was based on past due date.
-
v. The Company assesses the expected credit losses of accounts receivable (including those from related parties) as follows:
-
(i) Accounts receivable are divided into segments according to the Company’s credit rating standards; expected credit losses for each segment are assessed based on the specific loss rate or provision matrix for the segment.
-
(ii) Loss rates are calculated based on past and current information, taking into account forward-looking information provided by the Business Indicators Database of the National Development Council and the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.
-
(iii) As of December 31, 2018, the loss allowance for accounts receivable (including those from related parties), assessed using loss rate or provision matrix, is as follows:

vii. Credit risk information for 2017 is provided in Note 12(4).
- (c) Liquidity risk
- i. Cash flow forecasting is performed by each of the operating entities of the Company and aggregated by Company treasury. Company treasury monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities at all times so that the Company does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Company’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with internal balance sheet ratio targets and, if applicable external regulatory or legal requirements, for example, currency restrictions.
- ii. The Company’s non-derivative financial liabilities and net-settled or gross-settled derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date for non-derivative financial liabilities and to the expected maturity date for derivative financial liabilities.
- As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s non-derivative financial liabilities (including short-term borrowings, accounts payable and other payables) and derivative financial liabilities (including foreign exchange contracts, cross currency swap contracts and forward foreign exchange contracts) will expire within 1 year.
-
(3) Fair value estimation
-
A. The different levels that the inputs to valuation techniques are used to measure fair value of financial and non-financial instruments have been defined as follows:
-
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. A market is regarded as active where a market in which transactions for the asset or liability takes place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of the Company’s investment in listed stocks is included in Level 1.
-
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The fair value of the Company’s investment in derivative instruments is included in Level 2.
-
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
-
-
B. Fair value information of investment property at cost is provided in Note 6(10).
-
C. The related information of financial and non-financial instruments measured at fair value by level on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the assets and liabilities is as follows:

(b) The methods and assumptions the Company used to measure fair value are as follows:
-
i. The instruments the Company used market quoted prices as their fair values (that is, Level 1) are listed below by characteristics:
Listed shares
Market quoted price Closing price
- ii. When assessing non-standard and low-complexity financial instruments, for example, debt instruments without active market, interest rate swap contracts, foreign exchange contracts and options, the Group adopts valuation technique that is widely used by market participants. The inputs used in the valuation method to measure these financial instruments are normally observable in the market.
-261-
-
iii. The valuation of derivative financial instruments is based on valuation model widely accepted by market participants, such as present value techniques and option pricing models. Forward exchange contracts are usually valued based on the current forward exchange rate.
-
iv. The Company takes into account adjustments for credit risks to measure the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments to reflect credit risk of the counterparty and the Company’s credit quality.
-
D. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, there was no transfer into or out from Level 1 to Level 2.
-
E. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, there was no transfer into or out from Level 3.
(4) Effects on initial application of IFRS 9
-
A. Summary of significant accounting policies adopted for the year ended December 31, 2017:
-
(a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
-
i. Financial assets held for trading financial assets are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorised as financial assets held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Financial assets that meet one of the following criteria are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition:
-
(i) Hybrid (combined) contracts; or
-
(ii) They eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency; or
-
(iii) They are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.
-
-
ii. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
iii. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value. Related transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. These financial liabilities are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial liabilities are recognised in profit or loss.
-
-
(b) Available-for-sale financial assets
-
i. Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories.
-
ii. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, available-for-sale financial assets are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
iii. Available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs. These financial assets are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income. Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured or derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity instruments are presented in ‘financial assets measured at cost’.
-
-262-
-
(c) Loans and receivables
-
i. Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are loans and receivables originated by the entity. They are created by the entity by selling goods or providing services to customers in the ordinary course of business. They are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. However, short-term accounts receivable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
-
ii. Investments in debt instruments without active markets
-
(i) Investments in debt instruments without active markets are loans and receivables not originated by the entity. They are bond investments with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, and also meet all of the following conditions:
-
a. Not designated on initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss;
-
b. Not designated on initial recognition as available-for-sale;
-
c. Not for which the holder may not recover substantially all of its initial investment, other than because of credit deterioration.
-
-
(ii) On a regular way purchase or sale basis, investments in debt instrument without active market are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
(iii) They are initially recognised at fair value on the trade date plus transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Amortisation of a premium or a discount on such assets is recognised in profit or loss.
(d) Impairment of financial assets
-
i. The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a “loss event”) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
-
ii. The criteria that the Company uses to determine whether there is objective evidence of an impairment loss is as follows:
-
(i) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;
-
(ii) A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
-
(iii) The Company, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, granted the borrower a concession that a lender would not otherwise consider;
-
(iv) It becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
-
(v) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;
-
(vi) Observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future
-263-
cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial asset in the group, including adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the group or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group;
-
(vii) Information about significant changes with an adverse effect that have taken place in the technology, market, economic or legal environment in which the issuer operates, and indicates that the cost of the investment in the equity instrument may not be recovered;
-
(viii)A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.
-
iii. When the Company assesses that there has been objective evidence of impairment and an impairment loss has occurred, accounting for impairment is made as follows according to the category of financial assets:
-
(i) Financial assets measured at amortised cost
The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate, and is recognised in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost that would have been at the date of reversal had the impairment loss not been recognised previously. Impairment loss is recognised and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.
- (ii) Available-for-sale financial assets
The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s acquisition cost (less any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss, and is reclassified from ‘other comprehensive income’ to ‘profit or loss’. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of an investment in a debt instrument increases, and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, such impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss of an investment in an equity instrument recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss is recognised and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.
- B. The reconciliations of carrying amount of financial assets transferred from December 31, 2017, IAS 39, to January 1, IFRS 9, were as follows:

-
(a) Under IAS 39, because the equity instruments, which were classified as available-for-sale financial assets amounting to $1,791,255, were not held for the purpose of trading, they were reclassified as "financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (equity instruments)" amounting to $1,791,255 on initial application of IFRS 9.
-
(c) Under IAS 39, capital guarantee financial products and time deposits with maturity in excess of three months which were classified as “other current assets” amounting to $6,647,700, were reclassified as “financial assets at amortised cost” amounting to $6,647,700 in accordance with IFRS 9.
-
(d) Information relating to credit risk of allowance for impairment from December 31, 2017, as these are impaired under IAS 39, to January 1, 2018, as these are expected to be impaired under IFRS 9, is provided in Note 12(2) C (b).

In terms of rate swaps, the fixed interest rates of two currencies are exchanged to reduce interest rate risk.
- (ii) Foreign exchange contracts
The Company entered into foreign exchange contracs to satisfy capital requirement. The principal in two currencies are swapped using the same exchange rate at the beginning and the end of the period to reduce exchange rate risk.
iv. The Company has no financial assets at fair value through profit or loss pledged to others.

V. Causes of Profit or Loss Incurred on Investments in the Most Recent Year, and Any Improvements or Investments Planned for the Next Near
The Company's reinvestment is mainly used to expand the production capacity of overseas subsidiaries to enhance the overall cost competitiveness and quality advantages. The investment company's current operating conditions are good and stable.
VI. Analysis of Risk Factors
-
(I) The impact of interest rates, exchange rate and inflation on the Company's profit and loss and future response measures:
-
Interest rates:
- (1) Fluctuation of interest rates in 2018: In 2018, the global economy continued to grow moderately, but the pace of expansion showed an uneven development. The US economic growth exceeded market expectations. The economic growth of the Eurozone countries and Japan had declined. The capital outflowed of emerging market countries had intensified. The Fed continued to carry out the monetary policy of “interest rate hiking + shrinking of balance sheets”. The interest rate was raised four times during the year, raising the Federal Funds Rate to the 2.25%-2.5%. However, indications suggest that the 2019 rate hike will be slow down. Due to the impact of the global trade war, the domestic exportted demand had been relatively weakened. The annual economic growth had been slightly reduced. The
-302-
central bank continued a moderate monetary easing policy, and maintained the current re-discount rate at 1.375%.
-
(2) The net interest income for 2018 was NT$2,052 million, which contributed a significant amount of revenue to the company as a whole.
-
(3) Future measures: In 2019, the global economy will be affected by several factors including the Fed’s interest rate policy, the US-China trade war, and the UK’s Brexit, which lead to the overall downside risks. Our Company will continue to utilize HH Group's advantages and mechanism to obtain preferential interest rates from financial institutions to reduce dounding costs.

Interest rates:
-
(1) Exchange rates in 2018: � In January, the European Central Bank issued a summary of the Hawk’s meeting. The German government successfully ended a four-month political standoff. EUR/USD rose all the way up to around 1.25, and reached its peak of1.2555 on February 16. During March and April, EUR/USD showed a small bounce between 1.2200-1.2450. Late in April, the China-US trade war intensified, US bond yields repeatedly hit record high, and the Eurozone economy had slowed down. The two Italian political parties were in a seesaw battle for formation of the cabinet. The Euro had continued to fall and hit at 1.1511 on the 5/29, which was 6 and a half months low. From end of June to July, the US-European trade warfare was on the rise, and Fed Chairman Powell issued a dovish speech which led down the US dollar index. EUR/USD fluctuated within the range between 1.1509-1.1791. In early August, market news indicated that the United States will further increase tariffs on Chinese goods, and the news stimulated the US dollar index to rise, and meanwhile, EUR/USD continued to fall. With the collapse of Turkish Lira that caused market panic, EUR/USD plummeted to 1.1301. After the US President D. Trupm’s predecessor lawyer pleaded guilty and the US and Mexico reached a new trade agreement, the EUR/USD exhibited a sharp reversal. From October to mid November, the relationship between EU and Italy was tense due to budgetary problems. The Brexit negotiations were in a deadlock. As the political risk in the Eurozone rose and the economy slowed down, the EUR fell to a minimum of 1.1216 in the year. In December, the tension between China and the United States eased. The European Central Bank’s interest rate was determined to remain unchanged. The economy status of the euro zone countries varied dramatically. EUR/USD fluctuated slightly and closed at 1.1467 at the end of the year. The annual shock rate reached 11.16%.
-
� At the beginning of 2018, USD/JPY opened at 112.69, and it reached the highest price at 114.58 on January 3. At the beginning of the year, the Bank of Japan and the European Central Bank exhibited signs of tightening monetary policy. The US Secretary of the Treasury, Steven Mnuchin, said that the dollar's decline is helpful to the US trade at the World Economic Forum in Davos on January 25. Coupled with political turmoil in Washington, the market worried that the US president, Trump, will launch a global
-303-
trade war, the USD dollar index continued to weaken, while the JPY rised. In February, Japan announced that its economic growth in the fourth quarter increased to eight consecutive quarters. The decline of global stock market also boosted risk aversion. USD/JPY went further down and reached the lowest at 104.63 on March 23. From April to September, the US economy growth was optimistic. The yield on the US 10-year government bonds climbed steadily. With the political instability and weak economic growth in the Eurozone, and the going up of the USD, the USD/JPY gradually fell back to around 114.50. In October, the Asian European stock market fell and the budget deficit problem in Italy caused the market risk aversion to heat up. JPY quickly rose to around 112. During November and December, USD/JPY exchange rate showed a small bounce between 112.3-114. In late December, US President Trump’s twitten continued to lay pressure on the Fed, the US stock market was selling more and more, the US federal government closed due to the budget of the border wall, and the market risk aversion surged. JPY benefited largely, and closed at 109.70 at the end of the year. The annual shock rate reached 8.83%.
� At the beginning of 2018, USD/NTD opened at 29.755. In January, the US dollar index plummeted. The KRW and other Asian currencies rose. Foreign investors returned to the market. Taiwan stocks rose and led the NTD to rise, which reached the highest point of 29.035 on January 25. During February and March, USD/NTD exchange rate showed a small bounce between 29.10-29.40. From April to September, due to factors including the rise of geopolitical risks in the Middle East, the intensification of China-US trade war, and the soaring dividend yields of 10-year US bonds, the US dollar gradually rose, while the RMB continued to weaken and pressured NTD. USD/TWD rose all the way to 30.80. At the end of September, US President Trump’s speech at UN criticized China, and the European Central Bank’s president made a hawkish speech. The US dollar index fell back and the NTD rebounded slightly. At the beginning of October, Taiwan stocks fell sharply due to the sharp fall in US stocks, and reached the greatest fall of 660 points in a day in the history on October 11. The NTD exchange rate plummet over 31, to the lowest point of 31.126. From November to December, the US-China trade war showed some traces of easing. The US mid-term elections were in line with expectations, the Fed announced a slower rate hike, and NTD rebounded slightly after a narrow consolidation, eventually closing at 30.733 at the end of the year, with a shock rate of 7.03% for the whole year. � At the beginning of 2018, USD/RMB opened at 6.5045. At the beginning of January, the US dollar index weakened across the board. The domestic flow trading settlement demand pushed the RMB to appreciate rapidly to around 6.3. From February to March, the global stock market accelerated its rebound, and the USD/RMB fluctuated within a narrow range and reached a minimum of 6.24 in the year on March 27. From May to the middle of August, the US economy showed a strong growth, the
-304-
Fed raised interest rates as expected, the US 10-year bond yield rose over 3%, the US dollar index rose rapidly, China’s economic growth continued to slow down, and trade tensions intensified. The RMB gradually returned to around 6.92. Subsequently, the People's Bank of China raised the forward foreign exchange sales risk provision to 20%, and restarted the countercyclical factor regulation. The RMB depreciation pressure eased and the USD/RMB fell back to around 6.8. From September to October, China-US trade negotiations had not further progress. The domestic stock market fell sharply. The People's Bank of China announced that it would cut the deposit reserve by 100 basis points. The RMB went all the way downward and reached the lowest point of 6.9799 on October 31. In November, the US mid-term elections Democratic Party won the House of Representatives, and the sign of Fed rate hike was ambiguous. USD/RMB bounced within the 6.87-6.92 range. In December, China and the United States restarted negotiations and boosted risk sentiment.RMB fluctuated and rose to a final year closing at 6.8785, with a shock rate of 11.33% for the whole year. � Although the market expects the Fed to raise interest rates 1-2 times in 2019, the impact of US economic growth reaching its limit and global trade disputes on the US dollar has to be taken into consideration. It is estimated that the exchange rate of the USD against major currencies may still be going strong in 2019. However, the impact of economic and political events is still inevitable.
-
(2) The impact on the Company's profit and loss: In response to changes in the external environment, the Company operates steadily in the foreign exchange position to minimize the impact of exchange rate changes on the Company's operations. The net profit and loss of the 2018 consolidated statement and the profit and loss of financial commodity transactions amounted to NT$ 53.36 million.
-
(3) Future response measures: In order to avoid the risk of exchange rate fluctuations, the Company will continue to adopt the natural hedging method of assets and liabilities offsetting to avoid risk exposure and reduce the impact of exchange rate risk.
-
Inflation In 2018, the international commodity market price fluctuated greatly due to factors such as the imbalance of global economic recovery, the escalation of trade friction and the frequent occurrence of geopolitical conflicts. The overall market was weak. Due to the increase in international oil prices and raw material prices in the first half of the year, the import cost increased and the prices in general rose. The domestic consumer price index (CPI) demonstrated a yearly increase of 1.35%, which was significantly higher than the 0.62% in 2017. This showed little impact on the Company's profit and loss. The global economic growth uncertainty has risen in 2019, and the commodity price decline may remain the same in short-term or expected not to be changing. However the threat of rising raw material cost and price in the future is still necessary to be addressed. The managerial officers of the Company will maintain a consistent policy and adjust the strategy models in
-305-
a timely manner as the external environment changes due to factors such as inflation or deflation. The managerial officers will continue to work toward strengthening procurement advantages, reduction of costs, and diversification of customers to improve business performance.

- (IV) Effect on the Company's financial operations of important policies adopted and changes in the legal environment at home and abroad, and measures to be taken in response: None.
(V) Effect on the Company's financial operations of developments in science and technology as well as industrial change, and measures to be taken in response. With the advancement and evolution of technology, in recent years, 3C products such as computers, communications and consumer electronics have sought to differentiate in terms of design, functional reorganization and materials to attract consumers' attention and consumption temptation. At the same time, the rise of emerging markets and intense competition among manufacturers have kept the price decline trend unchanged. However the speed is different depending on the products. Besides, as the taste of the consumer changes rapidly, the product life cycle has also been shortened rapidly. These trends are serious challenges for OEMs’ capabilities in R&D, rapid mass production, operation, cost control, inventory control, and capital scheduling. Nonetheless, the Company and its customers adopt a collaborative development mechanism, where the Company tailors to customer's needs, product design directly adopts the mass production concept, and strictly control the inventory level with computer system and administrative mechanism. The Company also has been working hard to reduce costs over the years to maintain its leading position in cost, increase operational efficiency and maximize profits for shareholders. Therefore, when major changes
-308-
in technology lead to changes in industry trends, restructuring of supply chain segments and price competition are inevitable. The Company is able to cope with the changes and convert the advantages created by past efforts into profits. Therefore, the changes in new technology has a fairly positive impact on the Company's finance.
(VI) Effect on the Company's crisis management of changes in the company's corporate image, and measures to be taken in response: In addition to the product quality, mass production speed, cost control, delivery punctuality and system integration capabilities, the Company's corporate image is more importantly built on customer trust in the Company's execution, management capabilities and overall service. At the same time, in order to increase the customer's trust in the Company, the Company is self-motivated to set up a complete crisis management mechanism. After years of accumulated experience, the crisis management mechanism is becoming completed. In the event of a major crisis, the Company is able to properly handle the Company's reputation and corporate image.

In order to ensure that
-310-
the Group obtains the best insurance coverage. The Company will arrange insurance coverage immediately after the research is completed.
