GMI Technology Inc. 2023 business report

GMI Corporation’s 2023 total annual revenue of NT$15,303,570 thousand, pre-tax net income NT$401,886 thousand compared to 2022 revenue NT$19,312,581 thousand, pre-tax net income NT$589,791 thousand, an decrease of 20.76% and 31.86% respectively, 2023 consolidated revenue total NT$15,276,756 thousand, net profit before tax NT$392,308 thousand compared with the 2022 consolidated revenue of NT$19,346,503 thousand, consolidated net income before tax of NT$589,469 thousand, an decrease of 21.04% and 33.45%, respectively. Net income after tax was NT$1.98 based on weighted average circulated equity in 2023.

Looking back on the year 2023, it was filled with challenges. Factors such as high interest rates, soaring inflation, and underperformance in the post-pandemic Chinese economy contributed to significant downward risks for the overall economy and aggregate demand. Consequently, global demand for consumer electronics products weakened. Coupled with elevated market inventories and frozen customer demand, manufacturing activities in various countries slowed down. Moreover, the expansion of the US-China chip ban, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the unresolved situation in the Middle East have led to a global geopolitical trend towards group confrontation. As a result, instability in global economic development and demand in the consumer electronics components market has had a profound impact. Nevertheless, we maintain close collaboration with parts suppliers and product manufacturers to address the rapid changes in the market and the decline in customer demand. We closely monitor the dynamics of the supply chain and develop appropriate action strategies and execution capabilities to respond to market reversals and effectively manage potential risks.

In 2023, the Company is continuing to implement comprehensive and thorough operational management initiatives:

  1. Enhancing Market Development Capability: Alongside our efforts to consolidate existing markets, we will also prioritize expanding into new markets, introducing new products, and exploring new applications. This strategic approach will enable us to tap into limitless business opportunities across various sectors, thereby expanding the Company's scale and revenue in the market.

  1. Enhancing Supplier Relationships: We strive to continuously strengthen our close cooperation with suppliers, while also deepening and expanding our product lines to meet the diverse needs of the market and our customers.

  2. Enhancing Efficiency and Quality: We are committed to continuously strengthening our internal management and control processes to enhance the efficiency and quality of inbound and outbound shipments. By doing so, we aim to increase customer satisfaction and market competitiveness, while also improving and maximizing our overall operational effectiveness.

Looking ahead to the year 2024, the Company has continued to experience steady growth in the field of wireless communications and in projects with Chinese network communication operators. In particular, it has achieved impressive results in emerging technology areas such as VDSL, XPON, electric vehicles, and the Internet of Things (IoT) in recent years. Additionally, by securing cooperation and support from component suppliers and product manufacturers, the Company has been able to provide customers in the fields of smart healthcare, smart retail, smart entertainment, and smart manufacturing with comprehensive solutions for AI products. This has positioned the Company ahead of its competitors in terms of operations and allowed it to enter the next new era of development and business opportunities, thereby achieving its goal of sustainable development.

The Company's major business plan for 2024 is as follows:

Operation direction

In the 2024 electronic components market, the Company's management team will continue to pay special attention to several supply and demand issues under high inventory and uncertainty:

  1. Continue to Minimize inventory levels: High inventory means increased capital consumption and cost. Most of the current channel inventory levels are too high, we will reduce inventory levels by reducing the intake or clearing inventory from time to time.

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of G.M.I. Technology Inc.:

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of G.M.I. Technology Inc.(“the Company”), which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors (please refer to Other Matter paragraph), the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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. Based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, we believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. The key audit matters that, in our professional judgment, should be communicated are as follows:

1. Revenue recognition

Please refer to note 4(m) “Revenue Recognition” for accounting policy, and note 6(p) Revenue from Customer Contracts, of the financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The Company mainly engages in the purchase and sale of electronic components. Since revenue is an important item in financial reporting and is of the interest to the users of financial statements, revenue recognition is one of the important evaluations performed by our auditors in the consolidated financial statements.

13

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included:

  • Understand and test the internal processes and related controls related to revenue recognition.

  • Analyze the form and transaction terms of major revenues to assess the appropriateness of the timing of revenue recognition

  • Verify the revenue transaction records and various certificates for the period before and after the selected financial reporting date to assess the appropriate cutoff of operating revenue records.

  • Assess whether there are material sales returns and allowances after year end.

Other Matter

We did not audit the financial statements of Unitech Electronics Co., Ltd. and Global Mobile Internet Co., Ltd., subsidiaries of the Company. Those statements were audited by other auditors, whose report have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Unitech Electronics Co., Ltd. and Global Mobile Internet Co., Ltd., is based solely on the reports of other auditors. The financial statements of Unitech Electronics Co., Ltd. and Global Mobile Internet Co., Ltd. reflect total assets constituting 3.56% and 2.88% of the consolidated total assets at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and the related share of profit of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method constituting 1.46% and 1.62% of total Earning before tax for the years then ended respectively.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs, IASs, interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed 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 financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the 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 are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of 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 financial statements.

14

As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. 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 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.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on this financial statement. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the 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.

15

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period 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.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Lin, Heng-Shen and Yu, Chi-Lung.

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of G.M.I. Technology Inc.:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of G.M.I. Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the International Financial Reporting Standards ( “IFRSs ”), International Accounting Standards

( “ IASs ” ), Interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) or the former Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants Certified Public Accountants and Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants of Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirement. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report:

1. Revenue Recognition

Please refer to note 4(m) “Revenue Recognition” for accounting policy, and note 6(q) Revenue from Customer Contracts, of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The Group mainly engages in the purchase and sale of electronic components. Since revenue is an important item in financial reporting and is of the interest to the users of financial statements, revenue recognition is one of the important evaluations performed by our auditors in the consolidated financial statements.

21

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included:

  • Understand and test the internal processes and related controls related to revenue recognition.

  • Analyze the form and transaction terms of major revenues to assess the appropriateness of the timing of revenue recognition

  • Verify the revenue transaction records and various certificates for the period before and after the selected financial reporting date to assess the appropriate cutoff of operating revenue records.

  • Assess whether there are material sales return and discounts.

Other Matter

We did not audit the financial statements of Unitech Electronics Co., Ltd. and Global Mobile Internet Co., Ltd. subsidiaries of the Group. Those statements were audited by another auditor, whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Unitech Electronics Co., Ltd. and Global Mobile Internet Co., Ltd., is based solely on the report of another auditor. The investment in Unitech Electronics Co., Ltd. and Global Mobile Internet Co., Ltd. accounted for using the equity method constituting 3.50% and 2.86% of consolidated total assets at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and the related share of profit of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method constituting 1.50% and 1.62% of total Earning before tax for the years then ended respectively.

The Company has prepared its parent-company-only financial report for the years 2023 and 2022, 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 and with the IFRSs, IASs, IFRC, 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 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 or supervisors) are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

22

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 auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of 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 Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our 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.

  5. 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.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

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.

23

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our 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.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Lin, Heng-Shen and Yu, Chi-Lung.

A shareholder intending to exercise voting rights by correspondence or electronic means under the preceding paragraph shall deliver a written declaration of intent to the Company before two days before the date of the shareholders meeting. When duplicate declarations of intent are delivered, the one received earliest shall prevail, except when a declaration is made to cancel the earlier declaration of intent. However, the meaning before the declaration is withdrawn, is not limited to this.

  • After a shareholder has exercised voting rights by correspondence or electronic means, in the event the shareholder intends to attend the shareholders' meeting in person or through video conferencing, a written declaration of intent to retract the voting rights already exercised under the preceding paragraph shall be made known to the Company, by the same means by which the voting rights were exercised, 2 days before the date of the shareholders' meeting. If the notice of retraction is submitted after that time, the voting rights already exercised by correspondence or electronic means shall prevail. When a shareholder has exercised voting rights both by correspondence or electronic means and by appointing a proxy to attend a shareholders meeting, the voting rights exercised by the proxy in the meeting shall prevail. Except as otherwise provided in

43

At the time of a vote, for each proposal, the chair or a person designated by the chair shall first announce the total number of voting rights represented by the attending shareholders, followed by a poll of the shareholders. After the conclusion of the meeting, on the same day it is held, the results for each proposal, based on the numbers of votes for and against and the number of abstentions, shall be entered into the MOPS.

When there is an amendment or an alternative to a proposal, the chair shall present the amended or alternative proposal together with the original proposal and decide the order in which they will be put to a vote.

Vote counting for shareholders meeting proposals or elections shall be conducted in public at the place of the shareholders meeting. Immediately after vote counting has been completed, the results of the voting, including the statistical tallies of the numbers of votes, shall be announced on-site at the meeting, and a record made of the vote. When the Company holds a shareholders' meeting through video conferencing, shareholders attended by video conferencing shall vote on each motion and election motion through the video conferencing platform from the time the meeting is commenced by the chair and shall complete the voting before the end of the voting is announced by the chair; if the vote was made overdue, then it shall be deemed as they waived their rights.

When the Company holds a shareholders' meeting through video conferencing, the counting operation must be a one-time count after the end of voting is announced by the chair, and then the chair shall announce the results of voting and election.

If a shareholder who registered to attend the video-assisted shareholders' meeting through video conferencing in accordance with the provisions in Article 6 intends to attend a physical shareholders’ meeting, he or she shall exercise a declaration of intent to retract the registration with the same method as the registration was made 2 days prior to the day of the shareholders' meeting; if the declaration of intent to retract was made overdue, then he or she may only attend the shareholders' meeting by video conferencing.

If a shareholder exercises his or her voting rights by correspondence or electronically and does not retract his or her intent and attends the shareholders' meeting by video conferencing, he or she may not exercise his or her voting rights on the original motion or propose amendments to the original motion or exercise his or her voting rights on amendments to the original motion, except for a temporary motion.

44
