Dear Shareholders,

On behalf of Grape King Bio Ltd. ("the Company"), I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all Shareholders for your support in 2021.

Despite the challenges Taiwan faced in 2021, COVID-19 epidemic level-3 Alert restrictions, rising prices of raw materials, a shortage of labor and materials, Grape King Bio still managed to generate an earnings of NT\$8.81 per share by capitalizing on its quality products and expanding its original design manufacturing (ODM) business. The Company formed a strategic partnership with Uni-President Enterprises Corporation ("UPEC") to improve sales channel visibility and developing its domestic and overseas markets. As a brand leader in the Taiwan Biotechnology industry, Grape King Bio is committed to innovation, research and product development in order to provide consumers with a more comprehensive experience. To meet the demands of future operational growth, we started the construction of our new factory in Pingzhen Industrial Park to increase production capacity in order to expand local and global market share.

Along with continuous growth, Grape King Bio values operational performance and responds to stakeholders' expectations by communicating our corporate philosophy. We continue to incorporate ESG into our overall operations, and are committed to comprehensive cultivation of a green environment, innovations and R&D, ethical governance, product liability, happy work place and social prosperity. In addition, we strive to keep information and communication channels open to safeguard the rights and interests of the public and shareholders. For the first time Grape King Bio was recognized as one of the Top 5% listed companies in Taiwan from the TWSE corporate governance assessment in 2021. We were the only Biotech Company on the list, which shows our commitment to reaching the expectations of the public and shareholders.

With regards to the growth of the Company, I would like to thank all my Colleagues for their hard work and continued commitment and also sincerely thank our Shareholders for your trust and strong support to enable the Company to continue achieving outstanding performance.

(2) Analysis of Profitability in 2021

(3) Research and Development

Grape King Bio continues to work on the research and development of exciting new products in order to expand into new markets and product segments. Satisfying our customers with high-quality products, and staying one step ahead of our competitors are always challenges that we tackle head on with confidence. In 2021 Grape King Brand successfully launched various new products which included Essential QQ Collagen Drink, Kombucha, Probiotics Drink, Slim Turmeric Complex Essence Drink and Deer Placenta Beauty Capsule. Pro-Partner introduced Qing Cai Xian Slimming Capsule, Meal Supplement for the elderly, Children Lutein Drink which were all well received by members and consumers

In the future, the Grape King Bio will continue to invest in resources to develop new raw materials using our professional biotechnology expertise as well as work with other biotech organizations and leading academic institutions. We will strive to upgrade our existing products to enhance their effectiveness and apply for additional health food certifications from the Ministry of Health and Welfare.

    1. Overview of 2021 Business Plan
  • (1) Operating principle and important production and marketing policies

Under the vision of the founder and President Shui Chao Tseng, and our core mission "Live Healthy, Think Grape King", the Company has been able to maximize its competitive advantage of "delivering excellent quality with our advanced equipment and professional R&D team, delivering award winning product innovation". With precise marketing capability and diversified distributional channels, the Company continues to develop health products that meet the various needs of consumers both locally and internationally. Dedicated organizational structure, brand image innovation and successful digital transformation will enable the Company to lead the way forward into a prosperous future for years to come.

For many years Grape King Bio has been one of the leading Brands in the Taiwan health

food market. We have taken the initiative to upgrade our biotechnology equipment and R&D facilities to manufacture to ensure internationally standards of production quality. One of our production lines is PIC/S GMP certified for pharmaceutical quality control and is used for in-house production from raw materials to finished products. Our QA and QC teams monitor the entire production process, including raw material examinations, production line spot checks, and the finished product inspection before entering the warehouse. By strictly managing every step of the production process, we are able to guarantee the delivery of exceptionally safe products for our consumers and their families.

(2) Impact from external competitive environment, regulatory environment and overall business environment

In August 2020, the National Development Council released an up-to-date demographic forecast, which showed a negative growth forecast for the population of Taiwan. By 2025, we are expected to enter into a super-aged society, which indicates that 1 in 5 citizens are aged above 65 years old. By 2034, half of the total population will be over 50 years old. It is also expected that development of the economy and urbanization, prolonged sitting, change in diet and other factors will accelerate the formation of chronic diseases. Furthermore, "population aging" and "lifestyle disease" such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, obesity and diabetes are likely to account for the majority of medical expenses. Due to the prevailing health promotion and disease prevention among nationals, we believe that the products we are able to develop will help consumers deal with these ailments thus motivating to purchase Grape King Bio health food supplements.

A sustained, natural and gentle way of health maintenance should be the best solution for modern society as a way to stay healthy and balanced. With this goal in mind, the Company is committed to the development of natural ingredients beneficial to the human body, and develops natural health foods with an aim to promote the good health, energy and nutritional supplement for society against "civilization syndromes" and to provide high-quality health preservation measures.

The Taiwan Government continues to enhance and enforce strict controls and regulations for food safety. Grape King Bio has already set high standards for its business and operational management, therefore regulatory environment changes are welcomed by us with little impact on our operation. The amendments to the laws and regulations will gradually eliminate manufacturers that do not meet the criteria, thus raising the industry's entry barrier, and adding to the Company's advantage.

Due to another wave of Covid-19 last May 2021, the country was placed under Alert Level 3. Although the pandemic has been under control for half a year by the national crisis prevention, themes related to pandemic awareness brought up new needs as a result of the lifestyle transformation in the post-pandemic era.

(3) Honors and Awards

Grape King Bio has displayed outstanding performance in terms of corporation, commodities and core technology. We were voted as one of the "Top 100 Taiwan Best Companies to Work for in the Health Food Industry" by Cheers Magazine, placed in the Top 5% of companies for excellent corporate governance by the TWSE, "Strategic Distinction Awards in Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Industry" at the 4th Most Reviewed Online Rewards, and Agency & Advertiser of the Year Awards.

The products rolled out by the highly-skilled research and development team at Grape King Bio have also earned excellent recognition. Sliim Turmeric Complex Essence Drink received the "Innovative Dietary Supplement Award" from the Heath Food Society of Taiwan, Probiotics-related products received the "Health Brand Distinction Award" for 6th consecutive year and newly launched Kombucha received the "Innovation Award" from the Lactobacillus Association of Taiwan.

Under the excellent leadership of Chairman Chang-Yeh Tseng and General Manager Mei-Ching Tseng, our subsidiary Pro-Partner Co., Ltd., as well as the six head sales consultants, has once again been ranked as the No.1 domestic MLM Company and 3rd overall in the Taiwan multi-level marketing rankings. In 2021 Pro-Partner was ranked 41st on the DSN Global 100 list of MLM companies.

(4) Sustainable Development

Taiwan was placed under Alert Level 3, which led to a transformation in our everyday life. Working remotely, mask-wearing and vaccination became normal as well as many new consumers shifting their focus personal health. Under Grape King Bio's corporate mission "Live Healthy, Think Grape King", we continue to share our expect health knowledge and provide relevant health food products. The Company donated 300 thousand Probiotics beverage to the Taoyuan City Council, fire department, police stations, social welfare organizations, rural schools, food banks and many community care centers, with the aim of boosting protection. Seeing a change in teaching methods to adapt pandemic measures, we also provided rural schools with remote teaching equipment so that students can take classes safely.

To keep our fingers on the pulse, since 2019, the Grape King Bio has been integrating ESG into the spectrum of Sustainable Environment, Social Participation, Corporate Governance, and enhanced the Sustainable Development & ESG Committee. On the basis of corporate core values "Technology, Health, Hope", we started from the concept of Dedicating ourselves to making the society better, and proceeded to work on the multi-faceted performance of sustainability, which are Ethical Governance, Product Liability, Innovation and R&D, Happy Workplace, Society Prosperity and Green Environment.

i. Ethical Governance

Under the expectation of sustainable operation, Grape King Bio continues to strengthen its corporate governance focusing on 5 key aspects: reinforcing effective corporate governance structure, protecting shareholders' rights and interests, strengthening the functions of the board of directors, respecting the rights and interests of stakeholders, and enhancing information transparency. Our Finance Department acts as the administrator for corporate governance and integrity management in order to bolster its structure and assist in formulating the code of conduct for promoting integrity management. Through internal education and evaluations, the values of integrity and ethics are actively implemented and regularly reported to the Board of Directors every year.

Grape King Bio also assigns independent Directors to communicate with our Chief Audit Officer and accountants in person regularly, in order to fully exercise the authority of independent Directors. The Company also purchases Liability Insurance for Directors and Essential Employees so as to reduce the risks caused by mistakes or negligence of Directors' which could have significant impact to the Company and shareholders. We provide diversified communication channels, where specialists are responsible for replying to stakeholders concerns and questions. Grape King Bio publicly discloses information regarding corporate governance and finance results on both our Chinese and English websites. In 2021, we were invited to attend 7 virtual conferences with local and foreign stakeholders.

ii. Product Liability

The Company continues to obtain food safety certificates to ensure product responsibility is upheld. Grape King Bio has PIC/S GMP, ISO22000, HACCP, NSF GMP, TQF, HALAL and ISO/IEC 17025 TAF accreditation laboratory, FSSC22000 and many other international accreditations. Audits and evaluations of raw material suppliers are carried out on a regular basis, with 217 suppliers inspected in 2021. The strictest monitoring and the highest standards set by our Company ensure consumers can consume our products with confidence.

In 2021, Grape King Bio executed a full-scale communication plan this year aiming at reinforcing food safety awareness for all employees. Updated food safety slogans were placed around the factory and office space as well as quarterly news and information on food safety were distributed. Furthermore, 11 groups of employees from six departments were encouraged to submit proposals related to how they thought systems could be improved, pointed out problems and put plans into action.

iii. Innovation and R&D

Grape King Biotech Research Institute uses pioneering patented fermentation technology and our own advanced biotechnological scientific techniques to cultivate our award winning raw materials. Our researches continuously develop and manufacture products that are aimed at being beneficial for the whole family to consume. Our R&D's Antrodia Cinnamomea raw material has been submitted for the new botanical drug GKAC. It has been proven to have key elements in our preliminary clinical trial, which can greatly improve the liver function for patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. We have submitted our application to USFDA to carry out phase 2 clinical trials.

Grape King Bio continues to actively take part in industry-academia cooperation with colleges and universities by giving students opportunities to visit our facilities and participate in internships. The Company also visits campuses and training institutions to share our professional techniques with students. I also lead employees to participate in talent training and scouting hosted by TWIoD as an enterprise mentor for students. We hope to cultivate young professionals which can then enter industries with valuable experience. By combining the strength of the academe and the business sector, we help students gain practical experience and elevate their competitiveness in the workplace.

iv. Happy Workplace

Grape King Bio has a Health and Safety Committee which contains specialized nurses whom host health lectures and workshops. We obtained ISO/CNS 45001, Sport Enterprise and Healthy Workplace certifications in order to provide our employees with a safe and healthy working environment. The Company holds various team building events to build a sense of belonging in Grape King Bio, providing free health care and advice for employees. Consequently, we received a gold and special prize award from 1111 Job Portal voting last year, in recognition for being a friendly enterprise.

v. Social Prosperity

We linked our employees to external organizations by initiating various charity events and donations, raising public awareness to social welfare causes. Moreover, the Company maximizes every resource that can benefit charity and those in need, from the Elderly, disadvantaged communities to animal welfare. In 2021 our expenditure on social participation reached NT\$13,817,000 and volunteering 899 man hours too.

vi. Green Environment

In order to preserve a sustainable environment for the next generation, we are fully aware of the urgent need for enterprises to set positive goals for the sake of climate change and global warming. Therefore, Grape king Bio Headquarters obtained ISO 14001 environmental management and continued promoting various environmental protection procedures using PDCA, integrating our ISO 50001 energy management system. We continue our RE100 commitment to use 100% renewable energy by 2035 by continuously evaluating our energy performance and optimizing energy utilization. In 2021 our energy efficient ratio reached 3.3%, and we also signed a two-year purchase agreement with a renewable energy supplier. In December 2021, Grape King Bio officially became a member of TCFD Supporter, the first Taiwanese health food company in the industry to do so.

In summary, Grape King Bio not only makes every effort to meet the expectations of shareholders, stakeholders and customers, but also promotes our values in a transparent manner. Through our continuous devotion, we are certain that it is feasible to set a milestone of having a tri-win situation for Grape King Bio, employees and society. We aim to take our responsibility for citizens seriously whilst being a business enterprise, and also ensuring a sustainable development of the environment.

Finally, I would like to wish you all good health and happiness in the year of 2022, and beyond.

Chairman and GM Shenglin Andrew Tseng

  • iv. The Company evaluated the Board of Directors' overall annual operating performance in 2021, with the content specified above. As for the performance evaluation, the Corporate Governance Team is responsible for the Board of Directors' internal self-evaluation. After the self-evaluation of Directors, the assessment is submitted to the Corporate Governance Team for sorting. The evaluation adopts internal questionnaires. The results of the above performance evaluation shall be provided to the Directors and used as reference by the Board, Remuneration Committee, and Audit Committee in making decisions and further improving the quality of their decisions. They can also be used as reference for the nomination of Directors or selection of the Remuneration Committee and Audit Committee members. The Board of Directors had an excellent performance, having been able to fulfill its responsibilities efficiently and generating an average score of 4.62 points (out of 5 points). There were no other issues raised by the Directors and Corporate Governance Team in 2021. The content of the performance evaluation was reported at the 3rd meeting of the 20th Board on January 14, 2022. The goals for strengthening the board's functions in the current and the previous year (e.g., establishment of an Audit Committee, promotion of information transparency, etc.) and assessment of the implementation:
  • (i) The goals for strengthening the board's functions
  • A. The Company established the "Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles" during the 4th Board of Directors held by the 18th Board on Nov 10, 2015 to facilitate the full development of corporate governance initiatives and enhance the functions of the Board of Directors as well as amend the best practices during the 3th Board of Directors held by the 20th Board on Jan. 14, 2022 in accordance with the current status of the Company. Article 20 of the "Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles" regulates the policy with regard to diversity of board members to complete the structure of the board. The structure of members of the Board of Directors has achieved diversified education, expertise, gender and age.
  • B. Regarding Ethical Corporate Management Best Practice Principles established in 2019, the Company passed the "Unethical Conduct Prevention Program" at the 9th meeting of the 19th Board on November 11, 2019, aimed at actively preventing unethical behavior. In the Company, the corporate governance group is as a specific ethical management unit, which is responsible for formulating, monitoring and executing ethical management policies and prevention plans, and reports to the Board of Directors periodically. The Company passed the resolution to uphold its corporate ethical management for 2021 during the 3th Board of Directors held by the 20th Board on January 14, 2022.
  • C. In order to strengthen the functions of the Board of Directors and maximize shareholders' interests, the Company has voluntarily installed 4 independent Directors in line with the Securities Exchange Act. In addition, the independent Directors' term of office shall not exceed 9 consecutive years. Members of the Board of Directors who are related, i.e., spouse or second-degree relative shall not hold more than two board seats. Directors, who are also employees of the Company based on the consolidated financial statement, shall hold less than one third of the number of board seats. There is no government agency or single-listed company (and its subsidiaries) that accounts for one third of the number of board seats.
  • D. The Company considered the pledge ratio of Directors and major shareholders too high, which could affect shareholders' equity. Hence, the Company hope that the average pledge ratio set by the Directors and major shareholders could be lower than 50%. The set pledge ratio of Directors and major shareholders in 2021 was 0%.
  • E. The Company encourages board members and supervisors to attend the shareholders' meeting to protect shareholders' equity. Seven Directors (including three independent Directors) and one supervisor attended the shareholders meeting in 2021, and nine Directors (including three independent Directors) and 2 supervisors attended the 1st Special Shareholders' Meeting in 2021, comprising more than 1/3 of the number of Directors in both meetings. The Chairman as well as all independent Directors were present (refer to the shareholders meeting handbook on MOPS for details).
  • F. The Company encourages independent Directors, internal audit managers and accountants to communicate separately or jointly through a meeting or forum that enables independent Directors to function efficiently and have a more advanced understanding of the financial report, as well as financial and business conditions of the Company. In 2021, there was a separate discussion between independent Directors and internal audit managers and accountants twice regarding the financial report and other issues.
  • G. A board meeting should be held to obtain consensus and make resolutions that enable board members to carry out their responsibilities effectively. The Company holds at least 6 board meetings every year. In 2021, 7 board meetings were held with a

Directors' attendance rate of 97%; all independent Directors attended the board meeting in person. Apart from dealing with routine matters, the Board of Directors also periodically assesses the independency of certified accountants. Audit managers likewise attend the board meeting and submit an internal audit report to independent Directors for review.

  • H. The Company encourages Directors to continue acquiring new knowledge and enhance response capability so they can assume their roles effectively as members of the board. In 2021, the Company provided lecturers and courses discussing digital technology and Future Business Applications and The New Normal after COVID-19 to all Directors. Directors also pursued advanced studies individually on topics such as financial statements, laws and regulations, corporate governance, sustainable development, and digital transformation. A total of 91 hours of training were completed by Directors.
  • I. To strengthen corporate governance, the Company established committees to assist the Board of Directors in managing and supervising company operations. In 2021, an Audit Committee was established and the members are all independent Directors at present. Meetings are held at least once every quarter year to assist the Board of Directors in handling issues related to certified public accountants, financial statements, internal control, legal and regulatory compliance, and risk control. The members of the Compensation and Remuneration Committee are all independent Directors at present. Meetings are held at least twice a year. The committee assesses the policies and systems for the compensation and remuneration of Directors and managers based on professional outlook, and provide suggestions to the Board of Directors for their reference. In addition, a Digital Transformation Committee was established in 2021 to review the strategy, plan and execution result of the digital transformation executive team. It provides suggestions to the Board of Directors or the executive team to optimize the Company's business performance and process by integrating digital technology into the operating strategy so as to increase company sales and profits.
  • (ii) Assessment of implementation: The Company holds a group business meeting every six months and explains the contents to the Board of Directors, so that the Board of Directors can better understand the actual operation of the group. The Company adheres to the principle of operational transparency and immediately publishes important resolutions on MOPS after the BOD meeting to safeguard shareholders' interests. In addition, each board meeting situation will be posted on the Company's website (https://www.grapeking.com.tw) to enhance information transparency through instant disclosure.

Note 1: If a Director or supervisor is a legal entity, please disclose the name of the corporate shareholder and of its representative.

  • Note 2: (i) If there is a Director or supervisor leaving the Company before the end of the year, please indicate the date of departure in the note field. The actual attendance rate (%) is calculated based on the number of board meetings held and the actual number of meetings attended during the tenure.
  • (ii) If there is a Director or supervisor election before the end of the year, please list both the new and the old Directors and supervisors, and indicate in the Remarks column whether the Director or supervisor is old, new or re-elected and the date of election. The actual attendance rate (%) is calculated based on the number of board meetings held and the actual number of meetings attended during the tenure.

Independent Directors' opinions:
The opinions of Independent Directors about Motion 3 are as follows: (1) In terms of dividend allotment,
although the current distribution value is less than that of the previous year, our performance has been
acceptable to shareholders despite the effects of the pandemic. (2) Should the rate increase, it will have
an impact on the Company or would not easily return to its original amount.
The Company's handling of Independent Directors' opinions:
Regarding the Motion 3, some Directors believed that maintaining the dividend rate was more
conservative. However, the Company performed well during the pandemic and was acceptable to
shareholders. Some Directors pointed out that having a moderate increase in dividend rate amid the
pandemic could have positive effects but greater expenditures. Other Directors asked about the impact
of an increase in dividend rate on the Company and whether it would be difficult to revert to the original
dividend rate in the future. The Chairman explained the possibility of a decline in dividend rate after the
increase as well as the Company's intention to take care of shareholders who have been investing in the
Company for a long time.
Results of the resolutions:
The Motion 3 was approved by all Directors present as an amendment to increase the dividend per
share from NT\$ 6.3 to NT\$ 6.4.
For Motion 12, an acting Chairman was appointed by the Chairman to pass a resolution. The Directors
except for the concerned party who had abstained, approved the proposal. All other motions were
approved upon the consent of all attending Directors.
Invest avoidance situation:
For Motion 11, since the Directors' remuneration belongs to the Company, recusal is no longer
necessary.
For Motion 12, Shenglin Andrew Tseng, Mei-Ching Tseng, Jue-Jia Chang, Yen-Shiang Huang and
Chih-Sheng Chang who were eligible for transferee, avoided the voting due to the conflict of interests.

  • (2) Industry overview
  • i. Industry status and development

Countries worldwide are actively promoting the development of the biotechnology industry to seize business and market opportunities. With the global trend of commercialization of biotechnology, Taiwan has included biotechnology in its key development programs for emerging technologies. At present, pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, health and well-being are the mainstream targets for the development of the biotechnology industry, which maximizes various investment incentives and information to commercialize development achievements, promotes industry-academic-research cooperation, organizes alliances for the export of medical products, strengthens connections with advanced countries regarding technology, accelerates internationalization, and improves the competitiveness of Taiwan's biotechnology industry.

With the efforts from the Government and private sector over the years, Taiwan's biotechnology industry continues to expand. In 2020, the turnover of the biotechnology industry reached NT\$601.1 billion, up 7.4% from 2019. There was a great demand of testing agents, forehead thermometers, and other medical devices due to epidemic prevention and control. The private sector's investment in biotechnology was more than NT\$69.7 billion. The sales volume of health and well-being was NT\$205.5 billion; NT\$192.4 billion for medical equipment, NT\$114.2 billion for the biotech applications, and NT\$89 billion for pharmaceuticals.

With the global pandemic outbreak, the industry was initially facing supply chain disruption risk that impacted the global economy because the transportation. Consumption decreased due less consumers going out, as well as those who were trying to save their money. Clinical trials were put on hold hence delayed pharmaceutical drug developments. Hospitals put the pandemic infected patients first and postponed any non-emergency or non-urgent medical procedures, which had some effect on biotechnology industry.

With the impact of COVID-19, consumers paid more attention to their personal health and become more willing to purchase health care products for immune system. International research institutes have raised the growth forecast of global market. According to the forecast from The Business Research Company, the pandemic had helped to activate the supply and demand of the health care and nutritional product market. The global compound annual growth rate is about 8% from 2021 to 2025. The reports from MAIA international research institute indicated the functional foods global market including breakfast cereal, dairy product, edible oil, energy bar, and other functional food products will reach US\$274.58 billion at the end of 2025. The compound annual growth rate is about 7.36% from 2021 to 2025. Asia-Pacific market, is the most promising market among different regions, and is estimated to reach US\$108.33 billion in 2025.

In response to the contactless needs of the pandemic, tele-care, stay-at-home economy, personalized health service or product are newly developed trends in the health and well-being industry. The health and well-being industrial value chain in product/service, system/platform, and distribution channel/brand shall connect its upstream and downstream suppliers in response to post-pandemic new life and develop new service model. If the service was only provided by manpower, it may need to extend to system/platform to make up the contactless service, while the distribution channel/brand may need to transform from offline to online mode. The corporate will need to find new coping strategies in the new lifestyle to satisfy consumers' needs in the health and well-being market.

Higher wages and living standards depend on a country's economic growth. Changing one's dietary habit could cause imbalanced nutrition. The rapid development of technology has led to faster communication, making life changes and work more stressful which are the factors that can be harmful people's health. Although seeking medical care is convenient in Taiwan, taking nutritional supplements has become widely accepted by many people. In recent years, the demand for nutritional supplements has been growing with various types and sources of nutritional supplements now available. Health requirements have accelerated the expansion of local nutritional supplements, which in turn attracted suppliers in the same industry and other industries, utilizing their core advantages as product focus, e.g. raw material selection, health care request, product type, physical or platform channel cooperation and marketing operation strategy. It emphasized on domestic and multinational companies such as Uni-President Enterprises Corp. therefore they became a shareholder by private placement to collaborate in expanding the future health foods market.

As health care products have high added values, and different health care products can be

offered to meet the needs of different groups of customers, they can easily form a separate market segment and attract manufacturers in the food, biotechnology and drug industries to invest in the development. Even upstream dealers of food ingredients or direct marketing/marketing companies are optimistic about the rapid growth of the health food market, and are investing in the development of health care products. In view of the large volume of foreign health food imports, domestic health food manufacturers have taken a localization strategy to incorporate the resources of research institutions to jointly develop Taiwan's local health care ingredients for their products. This can not only reduce the price fluctuation impact of foreign resources, but because of the use of local health care ingredients, the products are easy to be accepted by the local people, and can form a separate market segment from the international market. In order to expand their businesses more quickly, manufacturers also actively seek suitable products or partners to penetrate foreign markets. For example: To establish retail channels for its proprietary products in Mainland China, the Company has partnered with All Cosmos Bio-Tech to set up GK BIO International SDN. BHD., a joint venture in Malaysia. By combining the advantages of both agencies and distributors, it has tapped the nutrition and health food market in Malaysia.

With the "Health Food Management Law" published, health food is differentiated from general food. The Department of Health announced the effectiveness assessment of health care products to serve as a basis for manufacturers' application for health food product reviews. At present, the health food safety assessment items announced by the Department of Health include 13 items: the regulation of blood fat, regulation of blood sugar, allergy adjustment, immunity improvement, anti-formation of body fat, fatigue resistance, bone care, aging resistance, gastrointestinal function improvement, liver protection, dental care, and regulation of blood pressure and promotion of iron absorption. The Department has also established health food standards for products such as meniscus and fish oil.

On the multi-level marketing side, as of the end of 2020, the number of multi-level marketing companies reporting to the Fair Trade Commission was 314, of which local companies accounted for about 80.89%, and foreign companies accounted for only 19.11%. In 2020, the total number of participants in direct marketing in Taiwan was 3.49 million, the total turnover of the multi-level marketing industry was NT\$98.009 billion. The main products of the multi-level marketing industry are still nutrition and health care products and beauty care products, followed by cleaning products. With the development of community media and the popularity of smart phones, the multi-level marketing industry is gradually transitioning from physical sales to virtual network. Products sold through multi-level marketing and direct sales require evaluation to achieve market acceptance and generate sales, whether they are new or existing products. As for multi-level marketing and direct sales operations, social networking is an important channel and the core of their product and industry promotions. Combining the advantages of internet access, social media and mobile payment is beneficial to platform integration between direct selling within the organization and direct sellers, as well as between external customers and the direct selling industry.

ii. Relationship among the industry's up, mid and down streams

Upstream: material development, formula development and upgrading.

Midstream: manufacturing.

Downstream: distribution channels, including the traditional physical stores (such as discount stores, beauty shops and supermarket chains), virtual channels such as online shopping malls or TV shopping, and direct marketing channels.

The Company has a complete industry chain. The upstream is the core manufacturing technology of microbial fermentation which is used to develop key ingredients such as lactic acid bacteria, Ganoderma lucidum and Antrodia mycelium. The midstream is the preparation and packaging capability and the downstream is the Company's own distribution channels and brands. Therefore, the Company can make a flexible response to the overall industry change and continue to win consumer favor and trust.

  • iii. Product development trends
  • (i) Immunoregulation is the focus of the Company's development of health care products, and Ganoderma lucidum related products have obtained the health food certification of the Department of Health.
  • (ii) Lactic acid bacteria products have become one of the most popular intestinal health products in recent years. The lactic acid bacteria products of the Company are not only rich in bacteria, but are very popular with consumers. They also obtained health food certification numbers, and have the two functions of gastrointestinal function improvement and allergy adjustment.
  • (iii) For Taiwan's common liver diseases, the Company developed health care products such as Antrodia King and Antrodia Aqua has obtained a health food certification number from the Department of Health for liver protection and blood pressure regulation functions).
  • (iv) For the aging society, the Company developed health care products for the silver-haired group for delay of aging and prevention of Alzheimer's disease.
  • (v) The Company developed ergot sulfide beauty drinks and facial masks with a strong anti-oxidative ability.
  • (vi) For the different health needs of men and women, the Company developed energy drinks for men and beauty drinks for women.
  • (vii) Develop and add precious plant extracts that protect the eyes and provide essential healthcare foods for 3C users.
  • (viii) Develop a series of unique "Grape King" style snack and beverages to be sold exclusively at the Company's tourist factory.
  • iv. Competition
  • (i) Product competition:
    • A. With the expansion of the domestic health food market, domestic Chinese and western pharmaceutical manufacturers and biotech companies have also stepped into the health food market, and grown quickly with their name recognition and existing technology in the pharmaceutical industry.
    • B. With their policy changes, some foreign governments have allowed the sales of health care products in foreign countries which were originally for domestic sales only. Because of the citizens' infatuation with overseas brands, the participation of overseas health care brands will make the competition keener.
    • C. On the direct marketing side, the increasing output value of the multi-level marketing industry year after year reflects the high potential of the direct marketing channel. However, the greater the output value, the higher the attractiveness for more enterprises to transform into multi-level marketing companies, and the more foreign multi-level marketing companies will enter the Taiwan market for market shares. The degree of competition is therefore increasing every year.
  • (ii) Channel competition:

With the change of market demand and consumption habits, health care products and beauty care products can be seen not only in the roadside open-shelf drug stores, suburban discount stores and existing multi-level marketing channels, but also in convenience stores around the corner. This accessibility has offered more options to consumers. Various industry groups have increased their investments in health food products and actively promote them through online media and physical channels, enabling customers to enjoy the most convenient way to purchase. Therefore, how to enhance product uniqueness, attract the attention of consumers and provide better after-sales service are the matters which require careful consideration.

(4) Long-term and Short-term Development

With the continuous stimulation of market sales incentives, consumer spending habits change year by year, and the existing distribution channels are bound to face difficulties and the development is limited. For the sustainable development of the business, the short and long-term business directions are mainly on new channels and the development of new products to meet consumer demands better and expand the consumer base for performance growth. The business development plan is as follows:

i. Short-term business development

Looking forward, we will stay committed to our mission "Live Healthy, Think Grape King" while achieving our product objectives and meeting the health needs of the whole family. Besides maintaining our best-selling products, we expect to launch a variety of health products with anti-aging and rejuvenating benefits, as well as beauty care and cardiovascular support. By combining Grape King's excellent research and development strategies with high-quality functional raw materials and long-term health benefits, we have successfully launched various functional foods and snacks for people who want a healthy daily diet. Big data operation in digital marketing is introduced for the strategic planning of the distribution channel. It allows the Company to accurately determine potential customers with a positive business flow, to drive the membership growth, and to diligently improve the quality of customer service. We also strengthen our analysis from our member database, through which consumers are segmented accordingly with different promotions to increase reoccurring sales. Through this improvement in both the quality of our members and services, an overall performance growth is expected.

Pro-Partner will continuously develop and diversify its product range, meeting the various needs of Pro-Partner members, and further expand the sales performance of Pro-Partner brand operators / supporters, as well as intensify market expansion.

ii. Long-term business development

In response to the diversity of consumer health care requirements, we have planned the implementation, application and development of health food certification to comply with the regulatory requirements on the sales of products. In addition to the existing gastrointestinal, immunoregulatory, liver protecting, blood glucose regulating, blood pressure reducing, anti-fatigue and anti-allergy products, we will add weight management, age-delaying and other functional products to expand our product function range as the long-term product plan to expand the consumer base.

In terms of channel expansion, virtual e-commerce channels are currently the largest. Economic and business opportunities through zero-touch e-commerce and online home purchases during the pandemic, long-term membership sales will be the main growth driver in the future. Grape King Bio's in-house membership platform-e-Shop has gained more than 120,000 members. In the future, we will get more involved with Omni-media management to continue to increase the number of new members, and broaden the scope of new member management. It is expected that the number of new members will exceed 200,000 in the next five years. Backed by our high-quality R&D personnel and nutrition support team, we will provide complete health advice from a professional perspective, gradually manage the depth of membership, and become a comprehensive health expert. In terms of physical consumption channel operations, we will look to our new strategic partnership we formed with the Uni-President Group who has a vast amount of experience and is good at operating in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) category. We aim to officially introduce recreational health foods to the consumer market too.

Reports from Forward Business and Intelligence Co., Ltd. in China indicate that health foods will penetrate and evolve in the direction of "from first and second-tier cities to third and fourth-tier cities", "from senior groups to young and middle-aged groups", and "nourishing healthcare to dietary supplement". Combined with forecast information from Euro monitor and the current industrial development trend, the industry is estimated to grow at least 4% in the next five years with and reach RMB517.8 billion in the healthcare market in 2026. The Company has been proactively deployed in the mainland healthcare product market. In addition, the ODM advantages of Shanghai Grape King Enterprise Co., Ltd. are consolidated with our R&D base in Taiwan. With its continual provision of competitive dietary supplement tailored for China's marketing groups, we are confident that we'll be experiencing a steady expansion of our operational scale.

Pro-Partner's multi-level marketing (MLM) business has reached stability in Taiwan, and is now looking to branch out into markets abroad. They plan to first enter the Malaysian market due to the well acceptance of the MLM business model and health food products. This is an important milestone Pro-Partner in the mid to long term. Key evaluation points such as regulation, tax, culture, stability of politics and economy etc., will be carefully planned.

of
key
components
to
improve
profitability and raise the entry barrier.
3. The
Company's
products
such
as
Ganoderma
lucidum
and
Antrodia
camphorate
have
been
selected as those with high entry barriers for
world-class
manufacturers,
etc.
The
Company
therefore
has
an
advantage
in
international
competition.
4. The Government provides NT\$10 billion per year to
support the biotechnology industry, and the industry
outlook is promising.
1. The implementation of the Health Food Law
raises the cost of product research and
development
and
increases
operational
difficulties. However, in the long run this can
phase out the weak and only the strong will
stay, and professional manufacturers will be
protected as a result.
2. With the continuing economic downturn,
non-daily necessities such as health food
have been bearing the brunt, and people's
willingness to purchase has declined. This
has impacted sales.
Food and beverage industry:
1. Taiwan has a warm weather, and the demand for
beverage is strong.
2. With the development of the economy, the national
income level is improving, and people are paying
more attention to the quality of life and leisure
activities.
With
the
expansion
of
consumption,
beverage demand has improved, and there is a great
potential in the development of the beverage market.
Food and beverage industry:
1. Government will significantly reduce import
tariffs in order to join the WTO, and there will
be more imported goods. In the future, the
competition in the beverage market will be
high.
2. Beverage manufacturers like to swarm into a
particular type of beverage, and the price
competition will lower the profit.
3. The product homogeneity of beverages is
high, and the market competition is keen. In
order to maintain the consumer's recognition
of the brand and purchase intent, advertising
expenses have to increase significantly.
Pharmaceutical Industry:
1.The pharmaceutical industry is one of the top ten
emerging industries of the country, and a key industry
promoted and supported by the Government.
2.As the population is aging and the living standards are
improving, health issues are attracting more attention
and the demand for drugs is increasing. Therefore,
the size of the drug market is expanding.
3.With the rise of health awareness, consumers are
more attracted to health and health care related
products.
4.The Company was certified by the Department of
Health
as
a
"Pharmaceutical
Manufacturer
Implementing G.M.P" in 1987. The plant management
and product quality are affirmed by the industry.
Pharmaceutical Industry:
1. Most consumers prefer foreign original drugs.
Though
domestic
GMP
manufacturers
produce drugs with the same effect, due to
people's medication habits, domestic GMP
manufacturers have long been in an inferior
competitive
position
which
is
disadvantageous
to
the
development
of
domestic pharmaceutical manufacturers.
2. Large
foreign
pharmaceutical
companies
have come to Taiwan to erode the domestic
drug market. This is disadvantageous to the
development
of
domestic
pharmaceutical
manufacturers.
3.At present, there are more than 100 domestic
GMP
pharmaceutical
manufacturers
and
numerous small manufacturers. There is a
fear of vicious competition.

(ii) Countermeasures

The Company adopts a self-sufficient development model in the short run to reduce costs, create differentiation and increase profitability, and a central concept of "continuous R&D" to constantly upgrade the manufacturing process, introduce academic resources, and apply for government subsidies to ensure a leading position in the industry.

  2. Current ratio: Mainly caused by the funds raised in the private placement this year to repay bank loans and increase capital for operations.

  3. Quick ratio: Mainly caused by the funds raised in the private placement this year to repay bank loans and increase capital for operations.

  4. Interest coverage ratio: Mainly caused by decreased interest expense due to bank loan repayment.

Note 1: The information above was certified by the accountants.

Note 2: The financial ratios are calculated as follows:

    1. Financial structure
  • (1) Debt to asset ratio = total liabilities / total assets
  • (2) Long term capital to property, plant and equipment ratio = (total equity + non-current liabilities) / net property, plant and equipment
    1. Solvency
  • (1) Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities
  • (2) Quick ratio = (current assets inventory prepaid expenses) / current liabilities
  • (3) Interest coverage ratio = net profit before income tax and interest expense / interest expense in the current period.
    1. Operating capacity
  • (1) Receivable (including accounts receivable and notes receivable due to business) turnover rate = net sales / average receivables for each period (including accounts receivable and notes receivable due to business)
  • (2) Average cash recovery day = 365 / receivables turnover rate
  • (3) Inventory turnover rate = sales cost / average inventory
  • (4) Payable (including accounts payable and notes payable due to business) turnover rate = cost of sales / average balance payable on each period (including accounts payable and notes payable due to business)
  • (5) Days sales outstanding = 365 / inventory turnover rate
  • (6) Property, plant and equipment turnover rate = net sales / net average property, plant and equipment value
  • (7) Total asset turnover rate = net sales / average total assets
    1. Profitability
  • (1) Return on assets = [after tax profit and loss + interest expense × (1 tax rate)] / average total assets
  • (2) Return on equity = after tax profit and loss / average equity
  • (3) Net profit rate = after tax profit and loss / net sales
  • (4) Earnings per share = (profit or loss attributable to parent company owner special dividend) / weighted average number of issued shares
    1. Cash flow
  • (1) Cash flow ratio = net cash flow from operating activities / current liabilities.
  • (2) Cash flow adequacy ratio = net cash flow from operating activities in the last five years / (capital expenditure + inventory increase + cash dividend) in the last five years
  • (3) Cash reinvestment ratio = (net cash flow from operating activities cash dividends) / (gross property, plant and equipment + long term investment + other non-current assets + working capital)

In the future, we will continue to explore in the field of intestinal microorganisms in humans and pets after they took the lactic acid bacteria which would benefit the probiotic product development. Human clinical research cases include mushrooms for relieving premenstrual syndrome and improving Parkinson's disease, probiotics for relieving tobacco addiction and improving exercise fatigue, and mushrooms for building muscles and further improving sarcopenia.

In response to the increasing demand for health foods at home and abroad, as well as for multi-dose products in the market, and the increase in existing PKL production lines, the Company plans to develop new production lines as part of its capacity expansion in the future. Moreover, it will construct a new plant in Pingzhen Industrial Park, which will commence operations in 2023.

Investment properties are properties held to earn rental and/or for capital appreciation. Investment
properties also include land held for a currently undetermined future use.
Investment properties are initially measured at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
recognition, investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation.
For a transfer of classification from investment properties to property, plant and equipment, the deemed

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

recognized directly in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the
exchange rate at the date of the transaction (i.e., not retranslated).
For the purpose of presenting the consolidated financial statements, the functional currencies of its
foreign operations 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;
and 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 Company and non-controlling interests as appropriate).

date.
g. Investments in associates An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and which is neither a
subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture.
The Group uses the equity method to account for its investments in associates. Under the equity method, investments in an associate 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. The Group also recognizes the changes in the Group's share of the equity of associates.
The entire carrying amount of an investment is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its
recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized is not allocated to any
asset that 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.
When the Group transacts with its associate, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the
associate are recognized in the Group's consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interests
in the associate that are not related to the Group.

Expenses under the defined contribution plan for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were
NT\$32,003 thousand and NT\$21,519 thousand, respectively.

b. Defined benefit plans

The defined benefit plans adopted by the Company and its domestic subsidiaries in accordance with the Labor Standards Act are operated by the government of the ROC. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the 6 months before retirement. The Company and its domestic subsidiaries contribute 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 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"); the Group has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.

The amounts included in the consolidated balance sheets in respect of the Group's defined benefit plans are as follows:

Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Law, the Group is exposed to the following risks:

  • 1) 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 or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets shall not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
  • 2) 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 plans' debt investments.
  • 3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated using the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salaries 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 significant assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations are as follows:

December 31 2020
2021
0.40%-0.80%

Discount rate

Balance at December 31, 2021 \$ 20,305 \$ (34,345) \$ (14,040)

(Continued)

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 will increase (decrease) as follows:

0.25% decrease

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

Employee benefit expenses in respect of the Group's defined benefit retirement plans were calculated using the actuarially determined pension cost discount rate; expenses under the defined benefit plan for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were NT\$500 thousand and NT\$1,248 thousand, respectively.

Each share possesses one voting right and a right to receive dividends.

On January 14, 2021, the Company held the first extraordinary shareholders' meeting and a resolution was passed to increase cash capital by issuing ordinary shares through private placement with Uni-President Enterprise Co., Ltd., a strategic investor, as the subscriber. The purpose of the capital increase is to raise funds for capital expenditures, to enrich working capital and help

strengthen the capital structure. On January 14, 2021, the Company resolved to offer for subscription and issued 11,851 thousand ordinary shares of the Company. The subscription price was \$170 per share, and a total of \$2,014,670 thousand in cash was received. The record date of the cash capital increase was January 19, 2021. The rights and obligations of the shareholders of the ordinary shares issued through this private placement are the same as those of the shareholders of the Company's issued ordinary shares. However, in accordance with Article 43-8 of the Securities and Exchange Act, the ordinary shares of this private placement shall not be freely transferred within three years from the date of subscription.

If the Company offered to settle the compensation or bonuses paid to employees in cash or shares, the Company assumed that the entire amount of the compensation or bonuses will be settled in shares, and the resulting potential shares were included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as the effect is dilutive. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the number of shares to be distributed to employees is resolved in the following year.

1) Market risk

The Group has certain foreign currency receivables to be denominated in the same foreign currency with certain foreign currency payables, therefore natural hedge is applied. Furthermore, as net investments in foreign subsidiaries are for strategic purposes, they are not hedged by the Group. The carrying amounts of the Group's foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities (including those eliminated on consolidation) are set out in Note 35.

2) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. As at the end of the reporting period, the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk, which would cause a financial loss to the Group due to the failure of the counterparty to discharge its obligation, could be equal to the total of the carrying amount of the respective recognized financial assets as stated in the consolidated balance sheets. Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Group's established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Credit limits are established for all customers based on their financial position, rating from credit rating agencies, historical experience, prevailing economic condition and the Group's internal rating criteria etc. The Group also uses certain credit enhancement instruments such as contractual liabilities at appropriate times to reduce the credit risk of specific customers. The Group transacts with a large number of unrelated customers and thus, credit risk is not highly concentrated.

Credit risk from balances with banks, fixed income securities and other financial instruments is managed by the Group's treasury in accordance with the Group's policy. The Group only transacts with counterparties approved by the internal control procedures, which are banks and financial institutions, companies and government entities with good credit rating and with no significant default risk. Consequently, there is no significant credit risk for these counterparties.

3) Liquidity risk

The Group's objective is to finance its operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows through the use of cash and cash equivalents, equity investments and bank loans. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.

The Group relies on bank borrowings as a significant source of liquidity. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Group had available unutilized short-term bank loan facilities set out in (b) below.

a) Liquidity and interest rate risk tables for non-derivative financial liabilities

The following table details the Group's remaining contractual maturities for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed upon repayment periods. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities from the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The table includes 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.

The parent company only financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Regulations
Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs as endorsed and issued
into effect by the FSC.
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.
The parent company only financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for
financial instruments which are measured at fair value, and net defined benefit assets (liabilities) which

interests in the subsidiaries that are not related to the Company.
An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence and which is neither a
subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture.
g. Investments in associates
The Company uses the equity method to account for its investments in associates. Under the equity method, investments in an associate 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. The Company also recognizes the changes in the Company's share of the equity of associates.

The entire carrying amount of an investment is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its
asset that 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.
When the Company transacts with its associate, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate are recognized in the parent company only financial statements only to the extent of
interests in the associate that are not related to the Company.
h. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less
accumulated depreciation.
Property, plant and equipment in the course of construction are measured at cost. Cost includes
professional fees and borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. Such assets are depreciated and
classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for
their intended use.

The Company uses the equity method to account for its investments in subsidiaries.
f. Investments in subsidiaries
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the Company. Under the equity method, an investment in a subsidiary is initially recognized at cost and adjusted
thereafter to recognize the Company's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the
subsidiary. The Company also recognizes the changes in the Company's share of equity of subsidiaries. Changes in the Company's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the Company losing
control of the subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. The Company recognizes directly in
equity any difference between the carrying amount of the investment and the fair value of the
consideration paid or received. any carrying amount of the investment accounted for using the equity method and long-term interests
When the Company's share of loss of a subsidiary exceeds its interest in that subsidiary (which includes
that, in substance, form part of the Company's net investment in the subsidiary), the Company
continues recognizing its share of further loss, if any.
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
recognized in prior years. An impairment loss recognized on goodwill cannot be reversed in a

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

immediately in profit or loss.
1) Financial assets
On derecognition of an investment property, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the
carrying amount of the asset is included in profit or loss.
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade
date basis.
j. Intangible assets Measurement categories
a)
1) Intangible assets acquired separately Financial assets are classified into the following categories: financial assets at amortized cost
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI.
Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful lives, residual values, and

Financial assets at FVTPL

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.
Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when such financial assets are 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.

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 Company's strategy of holding these investments for long-term purposes. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income were not pledged. 9.

Refer to Note 31 for information relating to investments in financial assets at amortized cost pledged as security.

a. Estimated impairment of financial assets

The provision for impairment of trade receivables is based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Company uses judgment in making these assumptions and in selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Company's historical experience, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates as of the end of each reporting period. For details of the key assumptions and inputs used, see Note 10. Where the actual future cash inflows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

b. Write-down of inventories

The net realizable value of inventories is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The estimation of net realizable value is based on current market conditions and historical experience with product sales of a similar nature. Changes in market conditions may have a material impact on the estimation of the net realizable value.

c. Recognition and measurement of defined benefit plans

The net defined benefit liabilities (assets) and the resulting defined benefit costs under the defined benefit pension plans are calculated using the projected unit credit method. Actuarial assumptions comprise the discount rates, rates of employee turnover, future salary increases, etc. Changes in economic circumstances and market conditions will affect these assumptions and may have a material impact on the amount of related expenses and liabilities.

d. Lessee's incremental borrowing rates

In determining a lessee's incremental borrowing rate used in discounting lease payments, a risk-free rate for the same currency and relevant duration is selected as a reference rate, and the lessee's credit spread adjustments and lease specific adjustments (such as asset type, secured position, etc.) are also taken into account.

Some of the Company's customers use cash (or credit card) to settle payment; other than the customers who pay by cash (or credit card), the average credit period of sales of goods was 30-135 days. The Company adopted a policy of only dealing with entities that have passed internal credit assessment and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.

In order to minimize credit risk, the management of the Company has delegated a team responsible for determining credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate allowance is made for possible irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the management believes the Company's credit risk was significantly reduced.

The Company measures the loss allowance for notes and accounts receivable at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. The expected credit losses on notes and accounts receivable are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to the past default records 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 forecasted 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.

20. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

a. Defined contribution plan

The Company adopted a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (LPA), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, the Company makes monthly contributions to employees' individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages. Expenses under the defined contribution plan for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were NT\$12,982 thousand and NT\$12,351 thousand, respectively.

b. Defined benefit plans

The defined benefit plans adopted by the Company in accordance with the Labor Standards Law are operated by the government of the ROC. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the 6 months before retirement. The Company contribute 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"); the Company has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.

The amounts included in the parent company only balance sheets in respect of the Company's defined benefit plans are as follows:

Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Act, the Company is exposed to the following risks:

  • 1) 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 or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets shall not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
  • 2) 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 plans' debt investments.
  • 3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated using the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salaries 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 significant assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations are as follows:

December 31
0.70%
2.00%
2021

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 will increase (decrease) as follows:

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

3) Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 3 fair value measurement
The fair values of unlisted equity securities were determined using the market approach. The market
approach is used to arrive at their fair values, for which the recent financing activities of investees,
the market transaction prices of the similar companies and market conditions are considered. The
significant unobservable inputs are as follows. The lower the discount for lack of marketability, the
higher the fair value of the shares.
If the inputs to the valuation model were changed to reflect reasonably possible alternative
assumptions while all the other variables were held constant, the fair value of the shares would
increase (decrease) as follows:
December 31
2021 2020

If interest rates had been changed by 10 basis points and all other variables were held constant, the Company's pre-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 would change by NT\$531 thousand and NT\$341 thousand, respectively, which was mainly due to fluctuations in the net asset's variable interest rate.

2) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Company. As at the end of the reporting period, the Company's maximum exposure to credit risk, which would cause a financial loss to the Company due to the failure of the counterparty to discharge its obligation, could be equal to the total of the carrying amount of the respective recognized financial assets as stated in the balance sheets. Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company's established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Credit limits are established for all customers based on their financial position, rating from credit rating agencies, historical experience, prevailing economic condition and the Company's internal rating criteria etc. The Company also uses certain credit enhancement instruments such as contractual liabilities at appropriate times to reduce the credit risk of specific customers.

The Company transacts with a large number of unrelated customers and thus, credit risk is not highly concentrated. Credit risk from balances with banks, fixed income securities and other financial instruments is managed by the Company's treasury in accordance with the Company's policy. The Company only transacts with counterparties approved by the internal control procedures, which are banks and financial institutions, companies and government entities with good credit rating and with no significant default risk. Consequently, there is no significant credit risk for these counterparties.

3) Liquidity risk

The Company's objective is to finance its operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows through the use of cash and cash equivalents and highly liquid equity investments. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.

The Company relies on bank borrowings as a significant source of liquidity. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had available unutilized short-term bank loan facilities set out in (b) below.

a) Liquidity and interest rate risk tables for non-derivative financial liabilities

The following table details the Company's remaining contractual maturities for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed upon repayment periods. The table has 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 table includes 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.
