I. Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholders,
I. Foreword
2020 is an unprecedented year as we are faced with various challenges brought forth by the COVID-19 pandemic. Under such precarious circumstances, Gemtek continues to seek new opportunities in the marketplace while striving to develop innovative business strategies.
In 2020, the Company's annual consolidated net operating income was NT$19,929,372,000, driven up by an annual increase of 10%. Operating net profit and net profit after tax were NT$467,913,000 and NT$1,407,574,000, respectively. Earnings per share after tax was NT$3.86.
Due to the COVID-19, the company had faced a shortage of production manpower and supplies in the first quarter of 2020, which caused revenue and profit to decline. After the second quarter, Gemtek adjusted quickly to meet the exponential growth of remote desktop connection product demands. Moreover, the Gemtek Vietnam, Gemtek Kunshan and Gemtek Changshu factories have also resumed their normal operations, bringing business performances to a higher level. In the third quarter, in response to business development needs, AMPAK Technology Inc., a subsidiary of Gemtek became independent, which caused an increase in the disposal of non-business income. After the fourth quarter, due to the shortage of supply chain materials, the Company spared no effort to prepare sufficient raw materials to respond to customer needs.
Looking back on 2020, the Company had continued to expand its production capacity domestically and internationally to respond to increasing customer demands while working to launch new products and develop new markets and customers. Wireless telecommunications technology is changing with each passing day. The Company seeks to improve and excel in its overall operations and continue to provide comprehensive services to its customers. Gemtek is committed to becoming a leader and supplier in the wireless communications industry.
Gemtek is truly grateful for the support from our shareholders during this difficult time. In the upcoming year, in order to counteract to the changes in the global economic environment, the Company will continue to actively maintain our leadership in the existing market and broaden our business scale in the wireless communication market. Furthermore, Gemtek is looking to come up with new strategies to heighten our business operations and managerial competencies to prepare ourselves for any sort of challenges. We profoundly hope that our shareholders will continue to stand by us in the years to come.

In addition, the new generation of WiFi standards also facilitates the production of more diversified cross-domain applications, which may benefit our overall business operations in the future.

Considering the current development status of the Company and the overall conditions of the industrial environment, other factors such as the Company's financial measures that might influence the financial structure and profit earnings are the key elements for determining the amount and type of surplus distributed.

Based on the findings of a self-assessment, the Company states the following with regard to its internal control system for the current fiscal year:
I. The Company understands that the establishment, implementation and maintenance of internal control system are the responsibility of the Board of Directors and managers of the Company.

Our internal control is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance over the effectiveness and efficiency of our operations (including profitability, performance and safeguarding of assets), reliability, timeliness, transparency of our reporting, and compliance with applicable rulings, laws and regulations
II. Any internal control system has its inherent limitations.

Nevertheless, our internal control system contains self-monitoring mechanisms, and the Company takes immediate remedial actions in response to any identified deficiencies.
III. The Company evaluates the design and operating effectiveness of its internal control system based on the criteria provided in the Regulations Governing the Establishment of Internal Control Systems by Public Companies (herein below, the “Regulations”). The criteria adopted by the Regulations identify five key components of managerial internal control: (1) control environment, (2) risk assessment, (3) control activities, (4) information and communication, and (5) monitoring activities. Each criteria includes several items. For the aforementioned items, please refer to the “Regulations”.
IV. The Company has evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of its internal control system according to the aforesaid regulations.
V. Based on the findings of such evaluation, the Company believes that during the current fical year, it has maintained, in all material respects, an effective internal control system (that includes the supervision and management of our subsidiaries), to provide reasonable assurance over our operational effectiveness and efficiency, reliability, timeliness, transparency of reporting, and compliance with applicable rulings, laws and regulations.

(II)Industry Overview
1.The Status and Development of Industry
With the introduction of 5G specifications and standards, many communication service providers have also begun to develop various deployment strategies. In 2020, Apple launched the iPhone12 equipped with 5G technology standards, which has prompted a vast array of technological advances in the market. The chipmaker giant Qualcomm said in its previous financial report that they are optimistic about the development trend of 5G technology after 2021. Not only is 5G widely used in consumer products such as mobile phones, Internet of Vehicles, and Internet of Things, but it also has a lot to offer for edge computing, data center and 5G infrastructure markets.
The telecommunications equipment and services company, Ericsson, had pointed out in a report that by the end of 2026, there will be 3.5 billion 5G users worldwide, accounting for more than 50% of mobile data traffic, and 60% of the population will live in areas covered by 5G signals. Although the epidemic has brought about many uncertainties, the pace of 5G network deployment and the introduction of new features in 5G devices has accelerated in 2020. This report also pointed out that the increase in 5G users and population coverage has
-90-
confirmed that the fifth-generation mobile communications system is deployed faster than any mobile network.
The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the development of digitalization, and the demand for faster and more reliable home broadband networks has also increased. Numerous communication service providers have begun to offer Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) services. The demand for Wi-Fi connectivity is high as well. Wi-Fi 6 uses many of the same technologies as 5G, which renders low latency connectivity and the ability to connect to multiple devices simultaneously. In January 2020, the advent of Wi-Fi 6E was announced by the Wi-Fi Alliance. Wi-Fi 6E is an extended version of WiFi, which is, aside from the initial 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands, an additional 6GHz is added to ensure high-efficiency Wi-Fi transmission.
Wi-Fi technology complements 5G and plays a role in various wireless communication. Gemtek has long been an innovator in the field of wireless technologies. The Company will continue to keep up with the trend and come up with new products to satisfy customer demands.
2. The Industry's Upstream, Midstream and Downstream Operations
The wireless LAN industry-value chain starts with upstream IC design houses (Broadcom, Qualcomm and Sigma Design, etc.), IC manufacturers (TSMC, UMC, etc.) and travels to midstream and downstream system design and manufacturing (Gemtek, CyberTAN, Askey Computer, Asus, etc.) and product sales companies (Belkin, Buffalo, Intel, etc.). Gemtek’s product supply chain begins with the purchasing of electronic components such as integrated circuits and circuit boards, which the materials would be placed through the SMT assembly process, testing, completion, and are then sold directly to assembly system companies or to general users through retail distributors. The Company’s line of business involves midstream manufacturing with connections to various manufacturers in the industry, depicted as follows:
| Upstream IC Design House, IC Manufacturer |
Midstream System Developer and Manufacturer |
Downstream Retailer, PC OEM, System Integrator |
Application Users, Application System Developer |

3. Product Development Trends and Competition
A. Wireless LAN Market Outlook
Forbes reported that the advent of 5G will indeed change the overall wireless industry significantly. Its high-speed and low-latency features provides the foundation for a host of current and emerging uses in manufacturing, medical care, smart cities, self-driving cars, and augmented reality. In terms of Wi-Fi standards, the new generation of Wi-Fi also continues to evolve, offering highly scalable and cost-effective network solutions.
The Wi-Fi Alliance has given the next-generation wireless standard a new name, Wi-Fi 6, and the transmission speed in device-dense areas can reach four times higher than that of Wi-Fi 5 (the 802.11ac protocol), providing users with greater bandwidth so that all wireless devices can take full advantage of high-speed transmission.
Wi-Fi plays an important role in the digital transformation of enterprises. Mobile offices can be set up through Wi-Fi network applications, allowing all personnel to work in any area within the company premises. At present, the deployment of Wi-Fi 6 is still relatively limited. It is expected that in the next 2 to 3 years, there will be a transition period when Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6 mutually coexist, and the latter is expected to be scaled up after 2023.
Wi-Fi 6 can greatly improve the capacity and bandwidth of wireless base stations (access point; AP), and can also divide channels into narrower sectors, greatly reducing network congestions and signal interference issues. Due to this newly enhanced feature, Wi-Fi 6 routers can connect and manage more devices at the same time, and significantly reduce the waiting and delay time when interference and connection problems occur. Wi-Fi 6 devices are also equipped with improved battery performance, thus making data transmission more efficient.
As for the dispute on whether the co-existence of the new Wi-Fi and 5G may appear redundant, take corporate office buildings for example, besides having Wi-Fi networks set up in open areas, places such as restrooms, elevators, emergency exit staircases, and corridors may require internet access as well. However, installing Wi-Fi hotspots in these locations will not benefit the entirety of the enterprise budget-wise, therefore having the support of 5G cellular on demand can fill in for the lack of WiFi signals when needed.
Therefore, choosing between 5G or Wi-Fi 6 may not be the main issue in terms of finding the optimal network solution, but how the two can complement one another in overlapping environments.
-92-
B. Technological Advancements
3GPP is the engineering organization that develops and defines the technical specifications and standards for 5G cellular networks; and the IEEE 802.11 standard, popularly known as WiFi, lays down the architecture and specifications of wireless LANs (WLANs). The biggest difference between the two is that Wi-Fi uses unlicensed spectrum, so the spectrum can be reused; while 5G, which uses licensed spectrum, has relatively higher transmission efficiency. In order to support innovative use cases such as the Internet of Things (IoT), GPS, and Internet of Vehicles, both Wi-Fi and 5G have evolved with new frequency bands.
Wi-Fi 6 will soon be applying the 802.11ax standard due to its outstanding features such as increased throughput, increased bandwidth efficiency, extended battery lifespan and performance, and wider coverage. In addition, 802.11ax has already included the ISM bands of 2.4GHz and 5GHz during its initial establishment, allowing it to operate on all Wi-Fi bands, including 2.4GHz, 5GHz and the upcoming 6GHz, narrowing the differences between Wi-Fi and 5G in terms of communication efficiency.
The latest technological advancement of Wi-Fi 6 is that its QAM modulation accuracy is doubled, which enables single devices to run faster, and the additional OFDMA Technology allows routers to accommodate more device connections at the same time. Furthermore, the BSS Coloring Technology that is newly introduced to WiFi can reduce signal interference between routers. WiFi power consumption runs more efficiently with the Target Wake Time (TWT) design. Compared with the Wi-Fi 5 routers currently used by most households, the maximum data transmission speed of Wi-Fi 6 is increased by nearly 40%.
The Wi-Fi 6E standard announced by the Wi-Fi Alliance in 2020 enables the 6GHz frequency band to transmit large quantities of data within a short distance, and can help alleviate the traffic congestion and interference of connected devices. In other words, Wi-Fi 6E is considered the newest highway channel added on top of Wi-Fi, and is packed with all the advantages of Wi-Fi 6.

Bluetooth technology is currently maintained by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG), with more than 30,000 members in the fields of telecommunications, computers, networks, and consumer electronics. |
Many consumer devices are equipped with Wi-Fi capabilities. On other device applications, personal computers can use Wi-Fi to establish networks and connect to the Internet; mobile computers can connect to the Internet through any Wi-Fi hotspot; and digital cameras can even transmit images wirelessly. |
Wi-Fi 6 technology can increase the number of devices simultaneously connected to the service by each AP. Usually, when you connect more than a dozen devices at the same time through retail channels/domestic mainstream routers, you may have some challenges to Wi-Fi, and the use effect and experience will gradually deteriorate. The Wi-Fi 6 technology specifically introduces some new features, allowing the same server to serve multiple devices at the same time, which is an improvement over the previous generation. |

The representative feature of 3G is to provide high-speed data services, with a speed generally above several hundred kbps. |
Based on technical standards and ITU's definition, when the static transmission rate reaches 1Gbps, and the user reaches 100Mbps under high-speed movement,it can be deemed as 4G. |
The main advantage of the 5G network is that the data transmission rate is much higher than the previous cellular network, reaching up to 10 Gbit/s, which is 100 times faster than the current wired Internet and faster than the previous 4G LTE cellular network. Another advantage is its lower network latency (faster response time), which is less than 1 millisecond, compared to 30-70 milliseconds for 4G. |

2.Market Share
In recent years, Gemtek had become widely successful with its advanced developments in the telecommunications market and has therefore been able to expand its worldwide businesses by leaps and bounds.
By following the technological trend in telecommunications infrastructure services, the Company’s main sales products has been keenly focused on LTE and Wi-Fi devices. However, based on its in-house R&D advantages, the Company was able to launch new projects and come up with numerous innovative products at the same time. The growing surge in telecommunications infrastructure and commercial networks deployment has led telecom carriers in many countries eager to upgrade their network capacity almost instantly. In 2019, Gemtek’s global sales has vastly expanded and its worldwide market share has also continued to increase exponentially.
3. Future Outlooks on Market Supply and Demand
In 2020, the world was threatened by the COVID-19 pandemic causing the electronics industry to suffer immensely by the effects of limited transportation and supply shortage due to city lockdown protocols. However, once people began to implement remote work and learning mechanisms, we were able to see an exponential surge of demand for telecommunications equipment. Domestic and international sales for related products were clearly on the rise. It was not until the global economy had slowly nudged towards the path of recovery was the electronics industry market able to take a breather. Under the effects of such economic turmoil, more advanced 5G related products, which include smart phones, WLAN, GPS, Ethernet LAN Switch, and Cable CPE etc. were gaining ground in every aspect, which the IEK Consulting Center of the Industrial Technology Research estimates that the total output of Taiwan’s telecommunications equipment may reach NT$868 billion in 2021, with an annual growth of 4% compared to 2020. The overall communications equipment and service market maintains steady growth momentum.
Despite the delay caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, 5G deployment is gradually warming up to market demands, picking up from where it had started back in 2019. Many countries have now initiated the use of 5G services, a new wave of market demands for base stations, network devices, RF Front-End modules, and smart phones will be anticipated.
At the end of 2020, upstream semiconductor suppliers began to manifest tight production capacity, which in turn caused supply shortages downstream. As far as production materials are concerned, the Company has taken measures to alleviate the risk of supply shortages to respond to customer needs. However, it is expected that supplies would continue to struggle to keep up with growing demands in the telecommunication industry in the following year.

- (II) Main Products and Manufacturing Process
1. Main Products
Gemtek’s wireless broadband products mainly consists of LTE data terminal routers. LTE is not only widely used among small units such as individuals and families, but also by large entities as in enterprises and factories. Wireless LTE can be deployed in wide metropolitan areas, and even in remote towns, pastures, and open landscapes, saving significant amount of cost in contrast to setting up wired network infrastructures.
Gemtek owns a complete set of production lines designated to LTE portable routers, indoor routers, outdoor routers, and micro base stations to satisfy the different application requirements of operators and market demand.
The LTE system architecture includes Evolved Packet Core (EPC) and Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) [1]. EPC is a multi-access network based on the IP network protocol. It enables access to 3GPP wireless networks such as LTE and 3G, and can even connect to non-3GPP standard WLAN and WiMAX networks. Its main network components include Mobility Management Entity (MME), Serving Gateway (S-GW), Packet Data Network Gateway (PDN GW; P-GW), and Home Subscriber Server (HSS). In E-UTRAN, the base station (E-UTRAN Node B; eNodeB) is responsible for allocating the wireless network resources among User Equipment (UE).
The rapid development of diversified networking such as streaming media, online games, IP VoD, 4K/8K Ultra HD quality and the Internet of Things is giving rise to the incessant demand for bandwidth. Fixed-line technology is still undergoing evolutionary changes. The telephone transmission technology has progressed from VDSL2 to 106MHz and 212MHz G.fast; fiber-optic transmission technology has also evolved from 2.5G GPON to 10G XGS-PON and 40G NG-PON2.
Gemtek provides a whole series of new-generation fixed-line broadband products, including PON, xDSL/G.fast, and DPU, which can all be customized to meet customers' diverse network requirements and develop terminal equipment that render a higher competitive edge in the market.
Smart products have become essential parts of our everyday life. People nowadays are looking beyond the high speed and high coverage of Wi-Fi for more connectivity. Gemtek has been working in the telecommunications field for over 30 years, and had developed numerous products that are in line with technological advances. From 802.11ac to 802.11ax, WiFi networks have become more efficient with its broadened capacity and ability to coordinate multiple access points at the same time. 802.11ax also supports 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, and can be used in various high density wireless scenarios. Smart devices can be used to manage all sorts of sensors and smart products, allowing enterprise applications and smart homes to be deployed with more flexibility.

(III) Supply of Raw Materials
The main raw materials of the company’s products include integrated circuits, circuit boards, wires, diodes, and capacitors, among which the raw materials that are used to assemble communication chipsets are made by designated manufacturers overseas. Due to the fact that these special components rely mainly on import, which the long wait for supply delivery might affect the overall production lead time, therefore, effective inventory control is vital to get the Company better prepared for unexpected supply outages. Procurement of raw materials from certified domestic suppliers may have less of an issue in terms of supply shortage, though the supply of several passive components can be tight at times, the Company has established contingency plans to mitigate the risks caused by insufficient supplies. As of now, there are no cases where the Company’s production plans were hindered or suspended by the lack of raw materials.

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

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 for the year ended December 31, 2020. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
We hereby summarize the Key Audit Matters of the 2020 Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group as follows:
Revenue Recognition

Due to the fact that the sales revenue makes up a consequential part of the operating income in contrast to the year 2019, the operating income for the sale to the specific customer product is listed as a Key Audit Matter. For related accounting policies pertaining to revenue recognition, please refer to Note 4 and 22.
Main Audit Procedures conducted by the CPA are as follows:
1.Assess the quality of composition and implementation of the Group’s Internal Control Policy that are related to sales income conjointly with the Group’s Sales Revenue Recognition Policy.
2.Conduct inspections on selected materials acquired from income reports that are related to sales transactions and receivables, etc. to verify whether the origins of the operating income are documented truthfully.
3.Verify whether the customer has received any substantial sales return or discounts after the transaction.
Additional Matters:
The financial statements of Gemtek Vietnam Co., Ltd. has been incorporated in the consolidated financial statements of Gemtek Technologies Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries. Due to the
-127-
differences in the respective financial reporting structures, the audit engagement for the financial statements of Gemtek Vietnam Co., Ltd. was by a separate CPA firm other than us.
The financial statements of Gemtek Vietnam Co., Ltd. was audited by the appointed CPA in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China. Therefore, when issuing our opinions for the consolidated financial statements, the opinions for the financial statements of Gemtek Vietnam Co., Ltd. is based on the audit report given by the appointed CPA.
The total assets of Gemtek Vietnam Co., Ltd. as of December 31, 2020 was NT$2,232,563,000, accounting for 12% of the total consolidated assets. The net operating income from January 1 to December 31, 2020 was NT$70,000, accounting for 0% of consolidated net operating income.
We have audited the individual financial statements of Gemtek Technologies Co., Ltd. as of and for the years December 31, 2020 and 2019 on which we have issued an unmodified opinion.
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, International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, 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
-128-
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 and supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditors’ 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 an auditors’ 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 the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China 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 the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
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 control.
-
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 control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
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
-129-
continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ 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 auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
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.
-
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of 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.
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 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ 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.

IV.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(I)Statement of Compliance
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC.
- (II)Basis of Preparation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments that are measured at fair value.
The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, are described as follows:
-
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
-
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
-
(III) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
-
Current assets include:
-
Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
Assets expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; and
-
Cash and cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Current liabilities include:
-
Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
Liabilities due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, even if an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long-term basis is completed after the reporting period and before the consolidated financial statements are authorized for issue; and
-
Liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.
-142-
(IV) Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Group and the entities controlled by the Company (i.e., its subsidiaries, including special purpose entities). Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the shareholders of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Company. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation.
Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the noncontrolling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the noncontrolling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to shareholders of the parent.
See Note 12, Attachment 6, and Attachment 7 for detailed information on subsidiaries (including the percentages of ownership and main businesses).
(V) Business Combinations
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. Acquisition-related costs are generally recognized in profit or loss as they are incurred.
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interests in the acquire over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
For each business combination, the Group measures the non-controlling interests at either fair value or the share in the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets, in the event of liquidation, may be initially measured at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of the measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value.
When a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group’s previously held equity interest in an acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date, and the resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss. Amounts arising from interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognized in other comprehensive income are recognized on the same basis as would be required if those interests were directly disposed of by the Group.
-143-
If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted retrospectively during the measurement period or additional assets or liabilities are recognized to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized as of that date.
(VI) Foreign Currencies
In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (i.e. foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period except for exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks.
Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, and in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the functional currencies of the Corporation and the group entities (including subsidiaries and associates in other countries that use currencies that are different from the currency of the Corporation) are translated into the presentation currency, the New Taiwan dollar, as follows: Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period; income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting currency translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income (attributed to the owners of the Corporation and non-controlling interests as appropriate).
On the disposal of a foreign operation (i.e. a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving the loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, or a partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or an associate that includes a foreign operation of which the retained interest becomes a financial asset), all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation are reclassified to profit or loss.
In relation to a partial disposal of a subsidiary that does not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiary, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences
-144-
is re-attributed to non-controlling interests of the subsidiary and is not recognized in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals, the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss.
(VII) Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials, supplies, finished goods and work in process and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at the weighted-average cost on the end of reporting period.
(VIII)Investments in associates and joint ventures
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the Group and other parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
The Group uses the equity method to account for its investments in associates and joint ventures.
Under the equity method, investments in an associate and joint venture are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate and joint venture. The Group also recognizes the changes in the Group’s share of the equity of associates and joint ventures.
Any excess of the cost of an acquisition over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate or a joint venture at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the acquisition, after reassessment, is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
When the Group subscribes for additional new shares of an associate and joint venture at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment differs from the amount of the Group’s proportionate interest in that associate and joint venture. The Group records such a difference as an adjustment to investments, with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus - changes in the Group’s share of equity of associates and joint ventures. If the Group’s ownership interest is reduced due to its additional subscription of the new shares of the associate and joint venture, the proportionate amount of the gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate and joint venture is reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required had the investee had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus recognized from investments accounted for by using the equity method is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings.
-145-
When the Group’s share of losses of an associate and a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in that associate and joint venture (which includes any carrying amount of the investment accounted for by using the equity method and long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate and joint venture), the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses and liabilities are recognized only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal obligations, or constructive obligations, or made payments on behalf of that associate and joint venture.
The entire carrying amount of an investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.
The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date on which its investment ceases to be an associate and a joint venture. Any retained investment is measured at fair value at that date, and the fair value is regarded as the investment’s fair value on its initial recognition as a financial asset. The difference between the previous carrying amount of the associate and joint venture attributable to the retained interest and its fair value is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal of the associate and the joint venture. The Group accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate and joint venture on the same basis as would be required had that associate had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. If an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the Group continues to apply the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest.
When a group entity transacts with its associate and joint venture, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate and joint venture are recognized in the Group’ consolidated financial statements only to the extent that interests in the associate and the joint venture are not related to the Group.
(IX)Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.
Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method with their estimated useful lives. Each significant part is depreciated separately. If the lease term is shorter than its estimated useful life, an item of property, plant and equipment is depreciated over the lease term. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at least once at the end of each year, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.
(X)Goodwill
-146-
Goodwill arising from the acquisition of a business is measured at cost as established at the date of the acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment loss.
For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units (referred to as “cash-generating units”) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired by comparing its carrying amount, including the attributed goodwill, with its recoverable amount. However, if the goodwill allocated to a cash-generating unit or groups of cash-generating units was acquired in a business combination during the current annual period, that unit shall be tested for impairment before the end of the current annual period. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit or groups of cash-generating units is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss is recognized directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
If goodwill has been allocated to a cash-generating unit and the entity disposes of an operation within that unit, the goodwill associated with the operation that is disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal and is measured on the basis of the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.
(XI) Intangible assets
-
1.Intangible assets acquired separately
-
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful lives, residual values, and amortization methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in the estimates accounted for on a prospective basis. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are measured at cost less accumulated impairment loss. When the Group has a right to charge for usage of concession infrastructure (as a consideration for providing construction services in a service concession arrangement), it is initially recognized as an intangible asset at its fair value. The intangible asset is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment loss.
2.Intangible assets acquired in a business combination
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognized separately from goodwill are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately.
3.Derecognition of intangible assets
On derecognition of an intangible asset, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.
-147-
(XII) Impairment of tangible assets (property, plant, and equipment), right-of-use assets, and intangible assets other than goodwill
At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets (property, plant and equipment), right-of-use assets, and other intangible assets (excluding goodwill) to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss.
When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount (less amortization expenses or depreciation expenses) that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
(XIII) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
1.Financial assets
All regular purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.
(1)Measurement categories
Financial assets are classified into the following categories: Financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at amortized cost and investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI.
A.Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when such a financial asset is mandatorily classified or designated as at FVTPL. Financial assets mandatorily
-148-
classified as at FVTPL include investments in equity instruments which are not designated as at FVTOCI and debt instruments that do not meet the amortized cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria.
Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss incorporates any dividends or interest earned on such a financial asset. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 31.
B.Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost:
a.The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
b.The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets measured at amortized cost, including cash and cash equivalents, note receivables, account receivables, account receivables-related party, other receivables, and refundable deposits, which equals the gross carrying amount determined using the effective interest method less any impairment loss measured at amortized cost. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.
Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of such a financial asset, except for:
a.Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, for which interest income is calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets; and
b.Financial assets that are not credit impaired on purchase or origination but have subsequently become credit impaired, for which interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets in subsequent reporting periods.
Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtor is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, indications that the debtor or issuer will probably enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization, and the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties
Cash equivalents include time deposits and bank acceptances with original maturities within 3 months from the date of acquisition, which are highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant
-149-
risk of changes in value. These cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.
C.Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI
On initial recognition, the Group may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation as at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.
Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the equity investments; instead, it will be transferred to retained earnings.
Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Group’s right to receive the dividends is established, unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
(2)Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost (including accounts receivables).
The Group always recognizes lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) for accounts receivables. For all other financial instruments, the Group recognizes lifetime ECLs when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If, on the other hand, the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs.
Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Lifetime ECLs represent the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECLs represent the portion of lifetime ECLs that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. The Group recognizes an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account.
For internal credit risk management purposes, the Group determines that the following situation indicate that a financial asset is in default (without taking into account any collateral held by the Group):
A.Internal or external information shows that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors. B.When a financial asset is more than 365 days past due unless the Group has reasonable and corroborative information to support a more lagged default criterion.
The Group recognizes an impairment loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account,
-150-
except for investmens in debt instruments that are measured at FVTOCI, for which the loss allowance is recognized in the other comprehensive incomeand does not reduce the carrying amount of the financial assets.
(3)Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.
On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of an investment in an equity instrument at FVTOCI, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss, and the cumulative gain or loss which had been recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred directly to retained earnings, without recycling through profit or loss.
2. Equity instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
The repurchase of the Corporation’s own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issuance or cancellation of the Corporation’s own equity instruments.
3. Financial liabilities
(1)Subsequent measurement
All the financial liabilities are measures at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL.
Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when such financial liabilities are held for trading.
Financial liabilities held for trading are stated at fair value, with any gain or loss arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 31.
(2)Derecognition of financial liabilities
-151-
The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.
4. Convertible bonds
The component parts of compound instruments (i.e. convertible bonds) issued by the Group are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
On initial recognition, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for similar non-convertible instruments. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortized cost basis using the effective interest method until extinguished upon conversion or upon the instrument’s maturity date. Any embedded derivative liability is measured at fair value.
The conversion option classified as equity is determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. This is recognized and included in equity, net of income tax effects, and is not subsequently remeasured. In addition, the conversion option classified as equity will remain in equity until the conversion option is exercised; in which case, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to capital surplus - share premiums. When the conversion option remains unexercised at maturity, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to capital surplus - share premiums.
Transaction costs that relate to the issuance of the convertible notes are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the equity component are recognized directly in equity. Transaction costs relating to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component.
5. Derivative financial instruments
The Group enters into foreign exchange forward to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks.
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date on which the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately. When the fair value of derivative financial instrument is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; when the fair value of derivative financial instrument is negative, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.
-152-
(XIV)Revenue recognition
The Group identifies contracts with customers, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognizes revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.
Revenue from the sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods comes from sales of wireless gateways and wlan cards. Sales of wireless gateways and wlan cards are recognized as revenue when the goods are shipped because it is the time when the customer has full discretion over the manner of distribution and price to sell the goods, has the primary responsibility for sales to future customers and bears the risks of obsolescence. Trade receivables are recognized concurrently. The transaction price received is recognized as a contract liability until the customer acquires control of the good.
The Group does not recognize revenue on materials delivered to subcontractors because this delivery does not involve a transfer of control.
(XV)Leasing
At the inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
For a contract that contains a lease component and non-lease components, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price and accounts for each component separately.
1.The Group as lessor
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of a lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Lease payments (less any lease incentives payable) from operating leases are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the relevant leases. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining operatin leases are added to the carrying amounts of the underlying assets and recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
2.The Group as lessee
The Group recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of a lease, except for short-term leases and low-value asset leases accounted for applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities adjusted for lease payments made at or before the commencement date. Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets.
-153-
Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease terms.
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, which comprise fixed payments, in-substance fixed payments, and variable lease payments which depend on an index or a rate. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in a lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate.
Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease terms. When there is a change in a lease term or a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use-assets. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero, any remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets.
(XVI)Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
Other than that which is stated above, all other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
(XVII)Government grants
Government grants are not recognized until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attached to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognizes as expenses the related cost for which the grants are intended to compensate.
Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognized in profit of loss in the period in which they become receivable.
-154-
(XVIII) Employee benefits
1.Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related services.
2.Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as an expense when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.
Defined benefit costs (including service costs, net interest and remeasurement) under the defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service costs and net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset) are recognized as an employee benefits expense in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which it occurs. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.
The net defined benefit liability (asset) represents the actual deficit (surplus) in the Group’s defined benefit plan. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan.
(XIX)Share-based payment arrangements Employee share options
The fair value at the grant date of the employee share options is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s best estimates of the number of shares or options that are expected to ultimately vest, with a corresponding increase in non-controlling interest; it is recognized as an expense in full at the grant date if vested immediately.
At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimates of the number of employees share options expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates is recognized in profit or loss such that the cumulative expenses reflect the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to capital surplus-employee share options.
(XX)Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
1.Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years.
According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the shareholders approve to retain the earnings.
-155-
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.
2.Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences, unused loss carryforwards and unused tax credits for research and development expenditures to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. For deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and equity, the interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the assets to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year in which the liabilities are settled or the assets are realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
3.Current and deferred taxes for the year
Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, and in which case, the current and deferred taxes are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
-156-
V. ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimations and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The Group takes the economic impact caused by the COVID-19 into consideration as part of a key source of estimation uncertainty. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Foreign investments are held for medium- to long-term strategic purposes. Accordingly, the management elected to designate these investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI as they believe that recognizing short-term fluctuations in these investments’ fair value in profit or loss would not be consistent with the Group’s strategy of holding these investments for long-term purposes.

The average credit period on sales of goods is 90 days with no accrued interest. The allowance for doubtful receivables was assessed by referring to the collectability of receivables based on an individual trade term analysis, aging analysis, the historical payment behavior and current financial condition of customers.
The Group measures the loss allowance for accounts receivables at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor’s current financial position, adjusted for general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate and an assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of economic conditions at the reporting date. As the Group’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision for loss allowance based on past due status is not further distinguished according to the Group’s different customer base.
In the event there is an evidence indicating that the customer is under severe financial difficulty and the Group cannot reasonably estimate the recoverable amounts, the Group writes off relevant accounts receivable. However, the Group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables which are due. Where recoveries are made, the recoverable amounts are recognized in profit or loss.
The following table details the loss allowance of note receivables and accounts receivables based on the Group’s provision matrix.

The Group previously has held 25% equity of PCL (Hsinchu ) Co., Ltd. In November 2019, PCL (Hsinchu) Co., Ltd. implemented a cash increase subsequent to a capital reduction to cover losses. However, as the Group did not participate in the subscription of shares based on its existing shareholding proportion, its percentage of ownership decreased from 25% to 15.14% resulting in the loss of significant influence. The fair value of the remaining 15.14% of the equity held by the Group on the disposal date was NT$35,543 thousand, which its financial assets were therefore measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses.
BROWAN COMMUNICATIONS INCORPORATION, an investee of the Group, increased its capital by NT$60,000 thousand in cash in January 2019. The Group did not participate in the subscription of shares based on its existing shareholding proportion, but rather subscribed in cash increase by NT$40,000 thousand, resulting in the shareholding percentage to increase to 45.69%.

XX.RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
(I)Defined contribution plans
The Company and its subsidiaries adopted a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (LPA), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, an entity makes monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.
(II) Defined benefit plans
The defined benefit plan adopted by the Company and its subsidiaries in accordance with the Labor Standards is operated by the government. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the six months before retirement. The Group contributes amounts equal to 2% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee’s name. Before the end of each year, the Group assesses the balance in the pension fund. If the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Group is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that
-174-
should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor (the “Bureau”) and the Group has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.
Among the Group’s subsidiaries, Gemtek Electronics (Kunshan) Co., Ltd. and Gemtek Electronics (Changshu) Co., Ltd. follow the above plans to contribute an amount equal to the proportion allocated from their employees' salaries, and deposit the total amount into a special pension account. The pension fund is managed by the local statutory insurance agency. When an employee retires, he/she will be eligble to receive the employee's personal pension savings and the Group's relative contributions, plus its accrued interest from the past years.
The amounts included in the consolidated balance sheets in respect of the Group’s defined benefit plans were as follows:

Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Law, the Group is exposed to the following risks:
-
Investment risk: The plan assets are invested in domestic/and foreign/equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets should not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
-
Interest risk: A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments.
-
Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.
The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The principal assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations were as follows:
| Discount rate Expected rates of future salary increase |
December 31, 2020 0.350% 3.250% |
December 31, 2019 |
|---|---|---|
| 0.800%~0.875% 2.500%~3.500% |
If possible reasonable changes in each of the significant actuarial assumptions will occur and all other assumptions will remain constant, the present value of the defined benefit obligation would increase (decrease) as follows:
| Discount rate Increase 0.25% Decrease 0.25% Expected rates of future salary increase |
December 31, 2020 ($ 1,254) $ 1,298 |

Increase 0.25% $ 1,227 $ 1,385 Decrease0.25% ( $ 1,193 ) ( $ 1,346 )
The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

| fair value measurement | |
|---|---|
| Financial Instruments Derivatives - foreign currency forward contracts and financial products Derivatives- convertible options |
Valuation Techniques and Inputs |
| Discounted cash flow: Future cash flows are estimated based on observable forward exchange rates at the end of the reporting period and contract forward rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of various counterparties. Binomial Tree Model for Convertible Bonds Pricing: Evaluated based on the volatility of the conversion price, the risk-free interest rate, the risk of discount rate, and the years until maturity. |
- Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 3 fair value measurement
For stocks of unlisted companies without an active market, their fair value is assessed by using the market method and the income method.
-207-
The market approach refers to the market price and related information of listed companies that share a similar background as the unlisted stock in order to estimate its fair value; the income approach uses the discounting cash flow method to calculate the present value of the expected return from holding the investment target.
Hybrid financial assets - Convertible corporate bonds have no market price for reference. The Company’s evaluation of fair value is based on the Binomial Tree Model for Convertible Bond Pricing, which factors in the volatility of the conversion price, the risk-free interest rate, the risk of discount rate, and the periods until maturity.

The Group’s major financial instruments include equity instrument investment, accounts receivable, accounts payable, bonds payable, loans and lease liabilities. The Group’s Financial Department provides services to the business, coordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal risk reports which analyze exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
The Group’s Finance Department seeks to mitigate the effect of these risks by using derivative financial instruments to hedge risk exposures under the policies approved by the board of directors. The Group does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes. The Group’s management monitors and reviews the financial activities in accordance with procedures required by relevant regulations and internal controls.
If the Finance Department should engage in derivative transactions, the results are reported to the Board of Directors on a regular basis.
1. Market Risk
The Group’s operating activities exposed it primarily to the financial risks arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (1) below) and interest rates (see (2) below):
There had been no change to the Group’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which these risks were managed and measured.
(1) Foreign Currency Risk
The Group engages in foreign currency-denominated sales and purchase transactions, therefore exposing the Group to foreign currency fluctuation risks.
-209-
The carrying amounts of the significant monetary assets and liabilities not denominated in functional currency (including those eliminated on consolidation) at the end of the reporting period are set out in Note 36.
Sensitivity analysis
The Group was mainly exposed to the USD.
The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 1% increase and decrease in the New Taiwan dollars (the functional currency) against the relevant foreign currencies. If the loss of the financial asset measured at fair value through profit and loss reaches the 3% cap as laid out in the contract, the situation must be reported to the management, and a reassessment of the exchange rate fluctuation should be made. The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items plus forward exchange contracts designated as a cash flow hedge, and their translations are adjusted at the end of the reporting period for a 1% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number below indicates an increase in pre-tax profit associated with New Taiwan dollars strengthen 1% against the relevant currency; a negative number below indicates a decrease in pre-tax profit associated with New Taiwan dollars weakens 1% against the relevant currency.
Profit or Loss
| Impact of | USD |
|---|---|
| For the year 2020 $ 66,925 |
For the year 2019 |
| $ 21,170 |
The impact of foreign currencies on profit and loss listed in the above table mainly derived from the USD-denominated non-derivative financial assets and liabilities of the Group that are still in circulation on the balance sheet date and have not undergone cash flow hedging.
-210-
There was no significant changes in the sensitivity analysis of the current year’s foreign exchange rates when compared to the previous year.
(2) Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk arising from borrowing at both fixed and floating interest rates.
The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows:
| s: | ||
|---|---|---|
Fair value interest rate risk -Financial assets -Financial liabilities Cash flow interest rate risk -Financial assets -Financial liabilities |
December 31, 2020 $ 82,364 2,261,397 1,884,043 - |
December 31, 2019 |
| $ 1,528,120 1,523,882 1,280,899 93,000 |
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the Group’s exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis was prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 100 basis point increase or decrease was used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s pre-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 would increase by NT$18,840 thousand and NT$11,879 thousand, respectively. The main reason for the above derived from the net
-211-
position of bank deposits and borrowings that are exposed to fluctuating interest rate risks and redeemable bonds attributable to the Group that are measured at fair value.
There was no significant changes in the sensitivity analysis of the current year’s interest rates when compared to the previous year.
(3) Other market price risk
Equity price risk exposure arises from the Group’s investments in domestic and foreign listed stocks, unlisted stocks, and convertible bonds. The Group assigns relevant personnel to monitor price flucutations and evaluate the timing to increase hedge positions.
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the Group’s exposure to equity price risks at the end of the reporting period.
If equity prices of financial assets at FVTPL had been 1% higher/lower, profit or loss for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 would increase/decrease by $1,201 thousand and $1,260 thousand, respectively. If equity prices of financial assets at FVTOCI had been higher/lower, other comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 would increase/decrease by $9,253 thousand and $11,880 thousand, respectively.
There was no significant changes in the sensitivity analysis of the current year’s equity prices when compared to the previous year.
2. Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. As of the end of the reporting period, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Group due to failure of counterparties to discharge
-212-
an obligation and financial guarantees provided by the Group could arise from the carrying amount of the respective recognized financial assets as stated in the balance sheets.
The Group adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.
Except for Company A, the largest customer of the Group, the Group does not have other sources of credit risk exposure from one or many counterparties that are grouped by similar characteristics. Associates of the Group are considered counterparties with similar characteristics.
The Group’s concentration of credit risk of 60.38% and 38.63% of total accounts receivables as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, were related to the Group’s largest customers A, B, and C.
3. Liquidity risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.
The Group relies on bank borrowings as a substantial source of liquidity. The detailed information of the Group’s unused financing facilities as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 is further stated in (3) financing facilities below.
(1)Liquidity and interest risk tables for non-derivative financial liabilities The following table details the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables had been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities from the earliest date on which the Group can be
-213-
required to pay. The tables included both interest and principal cash flows. Specifically, bank loans with a repayment on demand clause were included in the earliest time band regardless of the probability of the banks choosing to exercise their rights. The maturity dates for other non-derivative financial liabilities were based on the agreed upon repayment dates.
For interest cash flows paid at floating interest rates, the undiscounted amount of interest can be inferred by the yield curve on the balance sheet date.

Further information on the lease liability maturity analysis is as follows:
==> picture [354 x 26] intentionally omitted <==
The aforementioned non-derivative financial liabilities were caluculatedby floating interest rates, therefore the results may differ from the interest rate accounted for the balance sheet date.
(2) Liquidity and interest risk tables for derivative financial liabilities
For the liquidity analysis of derivative financial instruments, for derivative instruments that are settled on a net basis, they are compiled on the basis of undiscounted contract net cash inflows and outflows; for derivatives that are settled on a gross basis, they are compiled on the basis of undiscounted net cash inflows and outflows. It is prepared based on the current total cash inflows and outflows. When the amount payable or receivable is not fixed, the amount disclosed is determined based on the interest rate estimated by the yield curve on the balance sheet date.

V.Individual Financial Statement
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Gemtek Technologies Co., Ltd.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying individual financial statements of Gemtek Technologies Co., Ltd. (the “Company”), which comprise the individual balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the individual statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the individual financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “individual financial statements”).
In our opinion, the accompanying individual financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the individual financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and its individual financial performance and its individual cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Individual Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
-236-
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Company’s individual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the individual financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
We hereby summarize the Key Audit Matters of the 2020 Individual Financial Statements of the Company as follows:
Revenue Recognition
The 2020 operating income of Gemtek Technology Co., Ltd. is NT$16,484,007 thousand, in which NT$4,278,268 thousand sales revenue is attributed to the sale of a major customer product, accounting for 26% of the operating income. Due to the fact that the sales revenue makes up a consequential part of the operating income in contrast to the year 2019, the operating income for the sale to the specific customer product is listed as a Key Audit Matter. For related accounting policies pertaining to revenue recognition, please refer to Note 4 and 21.
Main Audit Procedures conducted by the CPA are as follows:
1.Assess the quality of composition and implementation of the Company’s Internal Control Policy that are related to sales income conjointly with the Company’s Sales Revenue Recognition Policy.
2.Conduct inspections on selected materials acquired from income reports that are related to sales transactions and receivables, etc. to verify whether the origins of the operating income are documented truthfully.
3.Verify whether the customer has received any substantial sales return or discounts after the transaction.
Additional Matters:
As of December 31, 2020, in relation to investee companies that have adopted the equity method for investments, due to the differences in the respective financial reporting structures, the audit engagement for the financial statements of Gemtek Vietnam Co., Ltd. was performed by a separate CPA firm other than us. The financial statements of Gemtek Vietnam Co., Ltd. was
-237-
audited by a designated CPA in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers. Therefore, our opinion for the financial statements of Gemtek Vietnam Co., Ltd. derives from the audit report given by its designated CPA where the equity method had been applied to investments and recognized comprehensive income. The total amount of investments by investee companies that have adopted the equity method as of December 31, 2020 was NT$514,927 thousand, accounting for 3% of the total assets of the individual. The recognized comprehensive income of investments by investee companies as of December 31, 2020 was NT$53,960 thousand, accounting for 5% total comprehensive income of the individual.
Duties and Responsibilities of Management and Corporate Governance
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the individual financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of individual financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the individual 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 and supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Individual Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the individual financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China 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 individual financial statements.
-238-
As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the individual 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 control.
-
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 control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
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 auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the individual 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 auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the individual financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the individual financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the individual 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.
-239-
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 individual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ 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.

IV.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(I)Statement of Compliance
The individual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
(II)Basis of Preparation
The individual financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments that are measured at fair value.
The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, are described as follows:
-
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
-
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
When preparing its financial statements, the Company used the equity method to account for its investments in subsidiaries and associates. In order for the amounts of the net profit for the year, other comprehensive income for the year and total equity in its financial statements to be the same as the amounts attributable to the owners of the Company in its consolidated financial statements, adjustments arising from the differences in accounting treatments between the parent company only basis and the consolidated basis were made to investments accounted for by using the equity method, share of profit or loss of subsidiaries and associates, share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries and associates and related equity items, as appropriate, in these financial statements.
-
(III) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities Current assets include:
-
Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
Assets expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; and
-250-
- Cash and cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Current liabilities include:
-
Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
Liabilities due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, even if an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long-term basis is completed after the reporting period and before the consolidated financial statements are authorized for issue; and
-
Liabilities for which the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.
(IV) Business Combinations
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. Acquisition-related costs are generally recognized in profit or loss as they are incurred.
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interests in the acquire over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
For each business combination, the Company measures the non-controlling interests at either fair value or the share in the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets, in the event of liquidation, may be initially measured at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of the measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value.
If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted retrospectively during the measurement period or additional assets or liabilities are recognized to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized as of that date.
(V) Foreign Currencies
In preparing the financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency (i.e. foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period.
-251-
Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, and in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
For the purpose of presenting individual financial statements, the functional currencies of the Company and the group entities (including subsidiaries and associates in other countries that use currencies that are different from the currency of the Company) are translated into the presentation currency, the New Taiwan dollar, as follows: Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period; income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting currency translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.
On the disposal of a foreign operation (i.e. a disposal of the Company’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving the loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, or a partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or an associate that includes a foreign operation of which the retained interest becomes a financial asset), all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation are reclassified to profit or loss.
In relation to a partial disposal of a subsidiary that does not result in the Company losing control over the subsidiary, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences is not recognized in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals, the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss.
(VI) Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials, supplies, finished goods and work in process and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at the weighted-average cost on the end of reporting period.
(VII)Investment in subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are the entities controlled by the Company. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for by the equity method.
Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at cost and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the Company's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the subsidiary after the date of acquisition. Besides,
-252-
the Company also recognizes the Company’s share of the change in other equity of the subsidiary.
Changes in the Company’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Company’s loss of control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the carrying amounts of the investment and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.
When the Company’s share of losses of a subsidiary equals or exceeds its interest in that subsidiary (which includes any carrying amount of the investment in subsidiary accounted for by the equity method and long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company’s net investment in the subsidiary), the Company continues recognizing its share of further losses.
Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized. Any excess of the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
The Company assesses its investment for any impairment by comparing the carrying amount with the estimated recoverable amount as assessed based on the investee’s financial statements as a whole. Impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases, the Company recognizes a reversal of the impairment loss; the adjusted post-reversal carrying amount should not exceed the carrying amount that would have been recognized (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized in prior years. An impairment loss recognized on goodwill cannot be reversed in a subsequent period.
When the Company loses control of a subsidiary, it recognizes the investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value at the date when control is lost. The difference between the fair value of the retained investment plus any consideration received and the carrying amount of the previous investment at the date when control is lost is recognized as a gain or loss in profit or loss. Besides this, the Company accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary on the same basis as would be required had the Company directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.
Profit or loss resulting from downstream transactions is eliminated in full only in the parent company only financial statements. When the Company transacts with its subsidiaries, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the subsidiaries are recognized in the Company’s parent company only
(VIII)Investments in associates and joint ventures
An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. A joint venture is a joint arrangement
-253-
whereby the Company and other parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
The Company uses the equity method to account for its investments in associates and joint ventures.
Under the equity method, investments in an associate and joint venture are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate and joint venture. The Group also recognizes the changes in the Company’s share of the equity of associates and joint ventures.
Any excess of the cost of an acquisition over the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate or a joint venture at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized. Any excess of the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the acquisition, after reassessment, is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
When the Company subscribes for additional new shares of an associate and joint venture at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment differs from the amount of the Company’s proportionate interest in that associate and joint venture. The Company records such a difference as an adjustment to investments, with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus - changes in the Company’s share of equity of associates and joint ventures. If the Company’s ownership interest is reduced due to its additional subscription of the new shares of the associate and joint venture, the proportionate amount of the gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate and joint venture is reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required had the investee had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus recognized from investments accounted for by using the equity method is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings.
When the Company’s share of losses of an associate and a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in that associate and joint venture (which includes any carrying amount of the investment accounted for by using the equity method and long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company’s net investment in the associate and joint venture), the Company discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses and liabilities are recognized only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal obligations, or constructive obligations, or made payments on behalf of that associate and joint venture.
The entire carrying amount of an investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.
-254-
(IX)Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.
Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method with their estimated useful lives. Each significant part is depreciated separately. If the lease term is shorter than its estimated useful life, an item of property, plant and equipment is depreciated over the lease term. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at least once at the end of each year, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.
(X) Impairment of tangible assets (property, plant, and equipment), right-of-use assets, and intangible assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets (property, plant and equipment), right-of-use assets, and other intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Company assets are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units on a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss.
When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount (less amortization expenses or depreciation expenses) that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
(XI) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL) are
-255-
added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
1.Financial assets
All regular purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.
(1)Measurement categories
Financial assets are classified into the following categories: Financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at amortized cost and investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI.
A.Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when such a financial asset is mandatorily classified or designated as at FVTPL. Financial assets mandatorily classified as at FVTPL include investments in equity instruments which are not designated as at FVTOCI and debt instruments that do not meet the amortized cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria.
Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss incorporates any dividends or interest earned on such a financial asset. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 29.
B.Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost:
a.The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
b.The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost, including cash and cash equivalents, note receivables, account receivables, account receivables-related party, other receivables, other receivables-related party, financial asset measured at amortized cost, and refundable deposits, are measured at amortized cost, which equals the gross carrying amount determined using the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.
-256-
Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of such a financial asset, except for:
a.Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, for which interest income is calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets; and
b.Financial assets that are not credit impaired on purchase or origination but have subsequently become credit impaired, for which interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets in subsequent reporting periods.
Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtor is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, indications that the debtor or issuer will probably enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization, and the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties
Cash equivalents include time deposits and bank acceptances with original maturities within 3 months from the date of acquisition, which are highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.
C.Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI
On initial recognition, the Company may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation as at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.
Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the equity investments; instead, it will be transferred to retained earnings.
Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Company’s right to receive the dividends is established, unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
(2)Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost (including accounts receivables).
The Company always recognizes lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) for accounts receivables. For all other financial instruments, the Company recognizes lifetime ECLs
-257-
when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If, on the other hand, the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs.
Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Lifetime ECLs represent the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECLs represent the portion of lifetime ECLs that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. The Company recognizes an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account.
For internal credit risk management purposes, the Company determines that the following situation indicate that a financial asset is in default (without taking into account any collateral held by the Company):
A.Internal or external information shows that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors. B.When a financial asset is more than 365 days past due unless the Group has reasonable and corroborative information to support a more lagged default criterion.
The Company recognizes an impairment loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account, except for investmens in debt instruments that are measured at FVTOCI, for which the loss allowance is recognized in the other comprehensive income and does not reduce the carrying amount of the financial assets.
(3)Derecognition of financial assets
The Company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.
On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of an investment in an equity instrument at FVTOCI, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss, and the cumulative gain or loss which had been recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred directly to retained earnings, without recycling through profit or loss.
2. Equity instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
-258-
The repurchase of the Company’s own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issuance or cancellation of the Company’s own equity instruments.
3. Financial liabilities
(1)Subsequent measurement
All the financial liabilities are measures at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL.
Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when such financial liabilities are held for trading.
Financial liabilities held for trading are stated at fair value, with any gain or loss arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 29.
(2)Derecognition of financial liabilities
The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.
4. Convertible bonds
The component parts of compound instruments (i.e. convertible bonds) issued by the Company are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
On initial recognition, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for similar non-convertible instruments. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortized cost basis using the effective interest method until extinguished upon conversion or upon the instrument’s maturity date. Any embedded derivative liability is measured at fair value.
The conversion option classified as equity is determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. This is recognized and included in equity, net of income tax effects, and is not subsequently remeasured. In addition, the conversion option classified as equity will remain in equity until the conversion option is exercised; in which case, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to capital surplus - share premiums. When the conversion option remains unexercised at maturity, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to capital surplus - share premiums.
Transaction costs that relate to the issuance of the convertible notes are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds.
-259-
Transaction costs relating to the equity component are recognized directly in equity. Transaction costs relating to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component.
5. Derivative financial instruments
The Company enters into foreign exchange forward to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks.
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date on which the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately. When the fair value of derivative financial instrument is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; when the fair value of derivative financial instrument is negative, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.
(XII)Revenue recognition
The Company identifies contracts with customers, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognizes revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.
Revenue from the sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods comes from sales of wireless gateways and wlan cards. Sales of wireless gateways and wlan cards are recognized as revenue when the goods are shipped because it is the time when the customer has full discretion over the manner of distribution and price to sell the goods, has the primary responsibility for sales to future customers and bears the risks of obsolescence. Trade receivables are recognized concurrently. The transaction price received is recognized as a contract liability until the customer acquires control of the good.
The Company does not recognize revenue on materials delivered to subcontractors because this delivery does not involve a transfer of control.
(XIII)Leasing
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
For a contract that contains a lease component and non-lease components, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price and accounts for each component separately.
1.The Company as lessor
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of a lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
-260-
Lease payments (less any lease incentives payable) from operating leases are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the relevant leases. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining operatin leases are added to the carrying amounts of the underlying assets and recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
2.The Company as lessee
The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of a lease, except for short-term leases and low-value asset leases accounted for applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities adjusted for lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs needed to restore the underlying assets, and less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the individual balance sheets.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease terms.
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, which comprise fixed payments, in-substance fixed payments, and variable lease payments which depend on an index or a rate. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in a lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate.
Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease terms. When there is a change in a lease term or a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Company remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use-assets. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero, any remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the individual balance sheets.
(XIV)Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
-261-
Other than that which is stated above, all other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
(XV)Government grants
Government grants are not recognized until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognizes as expenses the related cost for which the grants are intended to compensate.
Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Company with no future related costs are recognized in profit of loss in the period in which they become receivable.
(XVI) Employee benefits
1.Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related services.
2.Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as an expense when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.
Defined benefit costs (including service costs, net interest and remeasurement) under the defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service costs and net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset) are recognized as an employee benefits expense in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which it occurs. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.
The net defined benefit liability (asset) represents the actual deficit (surplus) in the Company’s defined benefit plan. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan.
(XVII)Share-based payment arrangements
Restricted stock units
The fair value at the grant date of the restricted stock units is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Company’s best estimates of the number of shares or options that are expected to ultimately vest, with a corresponding adjustment in other equity items –unearned compensation; it is recognized as an expense in full at the grant date if vested immediately. The grant date for the company’s cash capital increase
-262-
reserved for employee subscription was approved by the board of directors on August 7, 2020.
At the end of each reporting period, the Company revises its estimates of the number of employee restricted stock units expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates is recognized in profit or loss such that the cumulative expenses reflect the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to capital surplus- employee restricted stock units.
(XVIII)Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
1.Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years.
According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the shareholders approve to retain the earnings.
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.
2.Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences, unused loss carryforwards and unused tax credits for research and development expenditures to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. For deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and equity, the interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the assets to be recovered. A previously
-263-
unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year in which the liabilities are settled or the assets are realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
3.Current and deferred taxes for the year
Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, and in which case, the current and deferred taxes are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
V. ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimations and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The Company takes the economic impact caused by the COVID-19 into consideration as part of a key source of estimation uncertainty. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Trade receivables measured at amortized cost.
The average credit period on sales of goods is 90 days with no accrued interest. The allowance for doubtful receivables was assessed by referring to the collectability of receivables based on an individual trade term analysis, aging analysis, the historical payment behavior and current financial condition of customers.
The Company measures the loss allowance for accounts receivables at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor’s current financial position, adjusted for general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate and an assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of economic conditions at the reporting date. As the Company’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision for loss allowance based on past due status is not further distinguished according to the Company’s different customer base.
In the event there is an evidence indicating that the customer is under severe financial difficulty and the Company cannot reasonably estimate the recoverable amounts, the Company writes off relevant accounts receivable. However, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables which are due. Where recoveries are made, the recoverable amounts are recognized in profit or loss.
The following table details the loss allowance of note receivables and accounts receivables based on the Company’s provision matrix.

XIX.RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
(I)Defined contribution plans
The Company adopted a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (LPA). Under the LPA, an entity makes monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.
(II) Defined benefit plans
The defined benefit plan adopted by the Company in accordance with the Labor Standards is operated by the government. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the six months before retirement. The Company contributes amounts equal to 2% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee’s name. Before the end of each year, the Company assesses the balance in the pension fund. If the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Company is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor (the “Bureau”) and the Company has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.
The amounts included in the individual balance sheets in respect of the Company’s defined benefit plans were as follows:

Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Law, the Company is exposed to the following risks:
-
Investment risk: The plan assets are invested in domestic/and foreign/equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets should not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
-
Interest risk: A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments.
-
Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.
-280-
The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The principal assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations were as follows:
| Discount rate Expected rates of future salary increase |
December 31, 2020 0.350% 3.250% |
December 31, 2019 |
|---|---|---|
| 0.800% 3.250% |
If possible reasonable changes in each of the significant actuarial assumptions will occur and all other assumptions will remain constant, the present value of the defined benefit obligation would increase (decrease) as follows:
| Discount rate Increase 0.25% Decrease 0.25% Expected rates of future salary increase Increase 0.25% Decrease0.25% |
December 31, 2020 ($ 1,254) $ 1,298 $ 1,227 ($ 1,193) |

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

-300-
- Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 3 fair value measurement
For stocks of unlisted companies without an active market, their fair value is assessed by using the market method and the income method.
The market approach refers to the market price and related information of listed companies that share a similar background as the unlisted stock in order to estimate its fair value; the income approach uses the discounting cash flow method to calculate the present value of the expected return from holding the investment target.
Hybrid financial assets - Convertible corporate bonds have no market price for reference. The Company’s evaluation of fair value is based on the Binomial Tree Model for Convertible Bond Pricing, which factors in the volatility of the conversion price, the risk-free interest rate, the risk of discount rate, and the periods until maturity.

(III) Financial risk management objective and policies
The Company’s major financial instruments include equity instrument investment, accounts receivable, accounts payable, bonds payable, loans and lease liabilities. The Company’s Financial Department provides services to the business, coordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Company through internal risk reports which analyze exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
The Company’s Finance Department seeks to mitigate the effect of these risks by using derivative financial instruments to hedge risk exposures under the policies approved by the board of directors. The Company does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes. The Company’s management monitors and reviews the financial activities in accordance with procedures required by relevant regulations and internal controls.
If the Finance Department should engage in derivative transactions, the results are reported to the Board of Directors on a regular basis.
- Market Risk
-302-
The Company’s operating activities exposed it primarily to the financial risks arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (1) below) and interest rates (see (2) below):
There had been no change to the Company’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which these risks were managed and measured.
(1) Foreign Currency Risk
The Company engages in foreign currency-denominated sales and purchase transactions, therefore exposing the Company to foreign currency fluctuation risks.
The carrying amounts of the significant monetary assets and liabilities not denominated in functional currency and the carrying amounts of derivatives that are exposed to foreign currency risks at the end of the reporting period are set out in Note 33.
Sensitivity analysis
The Company was mainly exposed to the USD.
The following table details the Company’s sensitivity to a 1% increase and decrease in the New Taiwan dollars (the functional currency) against the relevant foreign currencies. If the sensitivity rate increases or decreases 3%, the situation must be reported to the core management, which also indicates that a reassessment of the exchange rate fluctuation should be made. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items plus forward exchange contracts designated as a cash flow hedge, and their translations are adjusted at the end of the reporting period for a 1% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number below indicates an increase in pre-tax profit or equity associated with New Taiwan dollars strengthening 1% against the relevant currency; a negative number below
-303-
indicates a decrease in pre-tax profit or equity associated with New Taiwan dollars weakening 1% against the relevant currency.
| Profit or Loss | Impact of | USD |
|---|---|---|
| For the year 2020 31,350 |
For the year 2019 | |
| $ 7,807 |
The impact of foreign currencies on profit and loss listed in the above table mainly derived from the USD-denominated non-derivative financial assets and liabilities of the Company that are still in circulation on the balance sheet date and have not undergone cash flow hedging.
The sensitivity analysis of the current year’s foreign exchange rates has gone up when compared to the previous year due to an increase in USD-denominated account receivables.
(2) Interest rate risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk arising from borrowing at both fixed and floating interest rates.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows:
| ows: | ||
|---|---|---|
Fair value interest rate risk -Financial assets -Financial liabilities Cash flow interest rate risk -Financial assets -Financial liabilities |
December 31, 2020 $ 61,886 2,261,397 831,518 |
December 31, 2019 |
| $ 801,245 1,461,882 375,532 |
-304-
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the Company’s exposure to interest rates for derivative and non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis was prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 100 basis point increase or decrease was used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Company’s pre-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 would increase by NT$8,315 thousand and NT$3,755 thousand, respectively. The main reason for the above derived from the net position of bank deposits measured at fair value interest rate risk of the Company.
There was no significant changes in the sensitivity analysis of the current year’s interest rates when compared to the previous year.
(3) Other market price risk
Equity price risk exposure arises from the Company’s investments in equity securities investment. The Company assigns a designated team to monitor price flucutations and evaluate the timing to increase hedge positions.
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the Company’s exposure to equity price risks at the end of the reporting period.
If equity prices of financial assets at FVTPL had been 1% higher/lower, profit or loss for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 would
-305-
increase/decrease by $1,201 thousand and $1,110 thousand, respectively. If equity prices of financial assets at FVTOCI had been higher/lower, other comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 would increase/decrease by $2,063 thousand and $3,266 thousand, respectively.
There was no significant changes in the sensitivity analysis of the current year’s equity prices when compared to the previous year.
2. Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. As of the end of the reporting period, the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Company due to failure of counterparties to discharge an obligation and financial guarantees provided by the Company could arise from the carrying amount of the respective recognized financial assets as stated in the balance sheets.
3. Liquidity risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Company’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.
The Company relies on bank borrowings as a substantial source of liquidity. The detailed information of the Company’s unused financing facilities as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 is further stated in (3) financing facilities below.
- (1)Liquidity and interest risk tables for non-derivative financial liabilities
-306-
The following table details the Company’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables had been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities from the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay. The tables included both interest and principal cash flows. Specifically, bank loans with a repayment on demand clause were included in the earliest time band regardless of the probability of the banks choosing to exercise their rights. The maturity dates for other non-derivative financial liabilities were based on the agreed upon repayment dates.
For interest cash flows paid at floating interest rates, the undiscounted amount of interest can be inferred by the yield curve on the balance sheet date.

| Analysis of Deviation over 20% 1. The increase in current assets totaling NT$3,125,626 thousand was mainly due to increase in inventory and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. 2. The increase in long-term investments totaling NT$781,307 thousand was mainly due to disposal of 41.51% of AMPAK Technology Inc.’s equity. The remaining equity will be recognized by fair value. 3. The decrease in other assets totaling NT$407,975 thousand was mainly due to loss of control in AMPAK Technology Inc. AMPAK was therefore excluded from the Group’s consolidated financial report, resulting in the decrease in goodwill. 4. The increase in current liabilities totaling NT$4,429,841thousand was mainly due to increase in accounts payable, short-term loans, and corporate bonds maturing within one year reclassified to current liabilities. 5. The decrease in non-current liabilities totaling NT$169,461 thousand was mainly due to corporate bonds maturing within one year reclassified to current liabilities 6. The increase in retained earnings totaling NT$1,273,304 thousand was mainly due to increase in current net income. 7. The decrease in non-controlling interest totaling NT$270,224 thousand was mainly due to loss of control in AMPAK Technology Inc. AMPAK was therefore excluded from the Group’s consolidated financial report. |

VI.Organizational Risk Management
Risk Management Framework
Over the years, Gemtek has continued to strengthen its corporate risk management framework by adopting internal control practices that involve risk detection, evaluation, reporting, and handling.The Internal Control System developed by Gemtek is implemented on two levels. Corporate divisions and members form the Primary Level, which is the first line of defense, is to identify underlying risks, and to assess and manage ongoing risk mitigation policies. The Advanced Level consists of individuals from the upper level of the management hierarchy (i.e. Deputy General Manager and above) who are in charge of evaluating the feasibility of business and its risk factors, while final decisions are subject to the consideration of the chairman of the board.
Despite having comprehensive risk control measures in place, the Company has not established a permanent risk management division to overlook relevant matters. The plan is for all employees to be aware of risks and escalate matters at all times to prevent any avoidable events. In cases of emergencies, the Company shall activate its Business Continuity Management Plan to support business operations. The Company’s risk management framework is as illustrated in the following chart.
Risk Management Framework
| Evaluation of Risk Factors | Direct Risk Management (Divisions) (PrimaryLevel) |
Risk Assessment and Control (Advanced Level) |
|---|---|---|
| I. Climate change II. Impact on production capacity caused by natural disasters III.Fire emergencies and power outages IV. Terrorist attack V. Supply shortages VI. Financial risks VII. High-risk investments,lending funds to other parties, and derivative transactions VIII. Investment in the Mainland area and subsidiaries IX. Expansion of manufacturing plant andproduction |

Risk Management and Assessment:
(I) Impacts of interest and foreign exchange rate fluctuations and inflation on the Company’s profit and loss, and countermeasures:
(1)Interest Rate
In March 2020, in response to the Covid-19 global outbreak, the US FED enacted an extremely loose monetary policy with measures such as unlimited quantitative easing and reduced interest rates. The FED had lowered interest rates twice by 100 basis points in an effort to prevent the financial market from crashing. The gesture restarted its near-zero interest rate policy to spur economic activity and bring financial order back on track. In the midst of the crisis, Gemtek continues to expand its business operations by seeking various sources of funding. In addition to raising equity capital, Gemtek also tries to offset foreign currency risks for its foreign currency denominated loans by borrowing at a fixed or floating rate based on forward guidance.
The carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities that are exposed to interest rate risks as of the Group’s balance sheet date are as follows:
| Fair value interest rate risk -Financial assets -Financial liabilities Cash flow interest rate risk -Financial assets -Financial liabilities |
December 31,2020 $ 82,364 2,261,397 1,884,043 - |
December 31,2019 |
|---|---|---|
| $ 1,528,120 | ||
| 1,523,882 | ||
| 1,280,899 | ||
| 93,000 |
(2) Foreign Exchange Rate Fluctuations and Inflation
The Company’s foreign currency positions are due to the selling of goods and purchasing of supplies abroad. In order to mitigate exposures to exchange rate fluctuations and inflation, the Company uses currency swaps to hedge currency risks. If the remaining foreign currency positions are higher than expected, the cash will be sold by spot transaction. The above measures should be sufficient for the Company to mitigate exposure to foreign exchange risks.
Significant foreign exchange gain and loss (Realized and unrealized), as follows:
Foreign Currency NTD RMB |
For the Year Ended December 31, 2020 Exchange Rate Net Foreign Exchange Gains(Losses) 1(NTD:NTD)$ 11,288 4.3648(RMB:NTD)( 62,220) ($ 50,932) |
For the Year Ended December 31, 2020 Exchange Rate Net Foreign Exchange Gains(Losses) 1(NTD:NTD)$ 11,288 4.3648(RMB:NTD)( 62,220) ($ 50,932) |

The impact of foreign currencies on gain and loss listed in the above table mainly derived from the USD-denominated non-derivative financial assets and liabilities of the Group that are still in circulation on the balance sheet date and have not undergone cash flow hedging.
-
350 -
-
(3)Countermeasures:
-
A. Accounts receivable and accounts payable are denominated in US dollars to reduce the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on overall profitability.
-
B. Derivative commodity transactions currently undertaken are to hedge assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currency. And in accordance with the "Procedures for Financial Derivatives Transactions", the Company conducts derivatives transactions through banks and regularly assesses the profits and losses to reduce the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on overall profitability.
-
C. The forex team collects market information on exchange rates, interest rates, and financial reports on a daily basis. Meetings are held to discuss strategies and measures to uphold movements from the market. In case of emergencies, matters are escalated immediately to senior executives to take appropriate actions.
-
D. Evaluate the interest rate of bank loans regularly. Maintain a good relationship with the bank to obtain more favorable terms or treatment with regard to rates and fees to alleviate the impact of interest rate changes on the Company's profit and loss.
-
E. In view of rising prices in raw materials, combating inflation has become a critical issue. Due to drastic changes in the market, the Company has drawn long-term plans to make advanced purchases with material suppliers in addition to finding alternative materials and implement more active procurement approaches. Since the supply chain can be threatened by the possible occurrence of a relatively longer material lead time, the question on how to satisfy soaring demands while responding to unpredictable factors, as in supply chain disruptions, shortage of labor, and cost control on various non-productive raw materials such as inventory, have become new topics for consideration. It now seems important to work with agents that are able to provide warehouse services to avoid the risks of supply shortages and cost fluctuations.
(II) Policies for high-risk, high-leverage investments, capital lending, endorsements, guarantees, and derivatives transaction, main reasons for the profits or losses generated thereby, and countermeasures:
-
(1) The Company focuses on main business operations and does not engage in high-risk, high-leverage investments.
-
(2)Loaning of funds:

(4) The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks. The purpose of currency hedging is to mitigate the impact of possible FX losses due to rate fluctuation other than profiting from currency arbitrage. If all elements of the Company’s business operations and clients remain unchanged, the Company will continue to take similar financial measures to hedge currency risks. The Company focuses on main business operations and does not engage in other derivative transactions. The Company also abide by the “Procedures for Acquisition or Disposal of Assets” and relevant regulations to accurately disclose information on all transactions.
-
(III) Research and development (R&D) projects and estimated R&D expenditures:
-
Please see page for “Business Operation Overview – R&D”.
-
(IV)Impacts of changes in domestic and foreign government policies and laws on the Company’s financial operations, and future countermeasures:
-
The Company has gradually moved its low-margin productions to the Mainland. Due to the fact that the Mainland still imposes trade and foreign exchange controls, the Company’s Mainland operations may be at risk of being affected by possible changes from the Mainland’s policy. The Company continues to study and follow closely with the relevant laws and regulations of the Mainland to mitigate any negative impacts caused by the changes.
-
(V) Impacts of industry and technology changes to the Company’s financial operations, and future countermeasures:
- As a sector of the high-tech industry, the rapid growth of the telecommunication industry has accelerated the innovative development and advancement of numerous wireless network communications products. Based upon this economic atmosphere, the Company should strive to keep up with the technology trends to continue to grow and expand its business. For decades, the Company’s operations were mainly focused on the research and development of wireless network communications equipment. The Company has been a leader in the field propelled by a group of dedicated professionals, backed by cutting edge manufacturing equipment and technology. The Company is now working towards a more diversified R&D approach, and has continued to innovate over the years. Technological evolution will contribute to the development of the Company’s business. However, successful business expansion must also be accompanied by a good management and cost control system, as well as a strong financial backbone to allow the Company to grow at a steady pace. Therefore, the Company has to strengthen its internal controls on all aspects to maintain business efficiency.
(VI) Impacts of changes in corporate image on the company's crisis management and future countermeasures:
The Company is dedicated to the development and manufacturing of wireless network products and has always upheld a good reputation throughout its years of doing business. The Company has no negative publicity and therefore the corporate image has never been affected.
(VII) Expected benefits and potential risks related to mergers and acquisitions: The Company has no plans for mergers and acquisitions as of the publication of this report. However, if the Company does have plans in the future, it will take proactive
- 352 -
measures to assess whether the merger can bring synergies to the company as well as guarantee the rights and interests of shareholders.
(VIII) Expected benefits and potential risks of capacity expansion:
The Company has no plans for capacity expansion as of the date of the publication of this report.
- (IX) Risk of procurement and sales concentration, and future countermeasures: (1)Purchases:
The Company is a supplier of wireless network equipment and products, therefore, it is relatively important to maintain a close relationship with upstream and downstream manufacturers throughout the supply chain. And due to the fact that wireless network product specifications need to be certified in particular, in the process of strategic sourcing, the Company’s main approach is to partner with the selected few who are capable of developing the necessary chip modules firsthand. The Company is well aware that the approach would result in buyer concentration in which supply disruption may be a lurking issue, therefore, inventory management and advanced preparation of supplies and raw materials are the key measures to avoid such risks.
- (2)Sales:
The Company’s major clients at present are retail distributors located in the United States and Europe on account of the region’s soaring demand for wireless communication products. In addition, the need for embedded modules found in products such as laptop computers is equally on the rise, resulting in the increase of the Company’s worldwide OEM sales volume over the years. In order to prevent sales concentration in the market, the Company plans to take proactive measures in building new marketing channels by strengthening cooperation with manufacturers located across Japan and Asia.
-
(X) Impacts and risks arising from major transfer or replacement of shares by Directors, Supervisors, or shareholders with over 10% of shares in the Company: None
-
(XI) Impact of change in Company management and associated risks: The Company currently has 363,031,547 common shares outstanding. The total number of shares held by directors are 15,305,580 shares, accounting for approximately 4.22% of the aggregate number of issued shares. The directors of the Company are committed in ensuring the high standards and quality performance of the Company are continuously upheld and recognized by its shareholders.
(XII) Litigious or non-litigious matters:
-
(1) The major litigious, non-litigious or administrative disputes that have been concluded by means of a final and definitive judgment, or are still under litigation, where such a dispute could materially affect shareholders' equity or the prices of the company's securities, the facts of the dispute, amount of money at stake in the dispute, the date of litigation commencement, the main parties to the dispute, and the status of the dispute as of the date of printing of this annual report shall be disclosed:None (2) The major litigious, non-litigious or administrative disputes that have been concluded by means of a final and definitive judgment, or are still under litigation that involves any director, any supervisor, the general manager, any person with actual responsibility of the Company, any major shareholder holding a stake greater than 10
-
353 -
%, and/or any company or companies controlled by Gemtek, and the status of the dispute as of the date of printing of this annual report shall be disclosed: None
(XIII) Other material risks and countermeasures:
- (1) Macroeconomic deterioration may reduce the Company's profits
In recent years, the Company has experienced extremely high growth rates due to the rapid development of the wireless communications industry. However, in the event of economic reversal fueled by macroeconomic instability, consumer’s willingness to pay and global demands may possibly decline, which would cause direct impact to the wireless communications market and the company's profitability.
(2) Consumer acceptance and use of new technology may not be as high as expected Wireless communications is an emerging technology. The Company is a highly-dedicated wireless communications system manufacturer that focuses on the fundamental research and development of the technology as well as the creation of multiple trending products and components in the market. Nevertheless, if consumer acceptance and use of new technology does not turn out as high as expected, the market direction will bring adverse impacts to the Company’s future business performances.
(3) Price wars will affect the Company's profit.
Competition among wireless communications system manufacturers has been intense over the past years. Business competitors have been cutting prices and finding ways to scale down profit margins in order to win clients. If the price war persists, low margins will cause a long-term impact on the Company’s ability to profit.
(4) Downstream market size is relevant to the Company’s sales outcome. Embedded modules for laptop computers has contributed a fair share to the Company’s sales revenue in recent years aside from conventional wireless network cards and routers sold to existing customer base. If demands for laptop computers should drop dramatically, the ensuing effects would not be optimistic for the Company.
(5) The Company adheres to its steady operation philosophy and has been able to maintain a high level of business growth in the past three years. Nevertheless, in truth, one cannot use the Company’s past operating performances to earn a guaranteed profit from investing in the Company’s stock as the market price is constantly fluctuating under the influence of systematic risk-factors. Economic cycles and price volatility may result in unfavorable outcomes for investors.
(6) The Company needs to draw an effective talent management strategy. Talented people are the foundation of the Company’s innovative drive, allowing the Company to constantly develop, operate, and maintain competitiveness in the industry. The Company must continue to improve and enhance its employee welfare and work environment as a means to retain and attract talents, keeping the source of innovative capacity abundant and secure.
(7) Natural disasters and severe infectious diseases may cause adverse impacts on the Company’s operations
Taiwan has experienced large-scale earthquakes and severe hurricanes as well as mass infectious diseases in the past. Both natural disasters and epidemics have caused great damage to Taiwan’s overall economic environment. The recurrence of such events will bring negative impacts to the Company's operations.
(8) Intellectual property disputes
R&D capabilities and manufacturing abilities are the core of the Company's operations. Therefore, protecting intellectual property rights is extremely vital to the Company. Patents applications are filed immediately once the Company finds the
- 354 -
results of a R&D project suitable for protection. As the number of the Company’s patents continue to increase, potential disputes over intellectual property rights with companies who have similar endeavors in the industry may begin to emerge. Litigation may have a negative effect on the Company’s bottom line. (9) Business risks in China
The Company’s manufacturing policies in recent years focuses on the development of more diversified, high value-added products made in limited quantities in Taiwan. Low-margin products are now mostly manufactured in the Mainland. In view of the unstable cross-strait relations, any deterioration of the status quo will inevitably cause an adverse effect on the Company's operations.
