  • (6) Research and development status

  • (A) Industry analysis

The Company has been engaging in the tooling development and production for computer/ information/ home appliance-related components for a long time, and is committed to industrial dispersion with the hope of increasing the sales ratio in automotive/industrial equipment/ medical-related products. The Company had gradually achieved the set goal since the year of 2022, including 53% in 3C products, 28% in industrial equipment (including medical), and 19% in automotive products; also, the Company’s ultimate goal is to achieve one third of sales from each category.

(a) 3C electronics industry:

The emerging of 5G communication has driven the development of three major trends, broadband/big link/low latency that not only help breakthrough the bottleneck of data transmission speed, but also further activate the unman vehicles real-time networking, efficient smart factory, telemedicine, virtual education, etc., as well as B2B and B2C application revolution, which then further drive the development of next-generation component technologies, such as, motion tracking, environmental ranging, tactile feedback, etc., added with the further integration of AI/edge computing and sensors that will enable future perception solutions to have excellent capability in awareness and judgment. Naturally, such development trend is not out of nothing, instead, it must be based on the improvement of the existing software and hardware. Therefore, it is an inevitable trend for the key components to be lighter, higher precision, and more functional.

  • (b) Vehicle related:

The traditional automotive industry supply chain originally relied heavily on the mass production of various types of molds to reduce costs. In recent years, due to the rapid advancement of intelligent technology, all types of vehicles are equipped with a large number of electronic intelligent devices, which are closely linked to the traditional electronics industry. In addition, with the rise of environmental awareness, the electric vehicle industry with its clean characteristics has attracted major car manufacturers to invest, with a predicted penetration rate of 18% by 2025 and 35% by 2030. The future development is worth looking forward to.

  • (c) Industrial equipment:

All manufacturers have made automatic assembly and production the first choice in reducing cost while facing the challenge of soaring labor costs; also, it helps eliminate the trouble of personnel management. Under the circumstance, the demand for components that are indispensable to automation equipment, such as, relays/ PLCs/ fuse-free switches/ breakers will grow constantly.

The Company is at the upstream position of the aforementioned three major industrial supply chains. In terms of the Company’s manufacturing process, in addition to the supply of electronic components, the electrical equipment/ vehicle electronics/ medical related, etc. can be transformed and supplied with the use of the existing technologies or equipment quickly, which is the Company’s core competence.

(B) Responsive strategies

  • (a) If the existing electronic component industry maintains the traditional processing

5

mode with customer-supplied materials, there is no possibility of responding to the global massive/rapid changes. Therefore, the Company will focus on ODM operation and participating in customer design in the future.

  • (b) The Company is mainly engaged in stamping and metal/plastic injection business with Stage-I one-step manufacturing process completed and has the manufacturing process extended to finished product assembly, an electromechanical department established for the design and production of automatic assembly machines so to achieve the goal of becoming a one-stop full-process supplier.

  • (c) The inheritance of craftsmanship in a technology-intensive industry is the key to success. In addition to continuing the operation of the education and training center and the industry-university cooperation with three universities, the Company has introduced a mentor-disciple system and one-on-one in-depth teaching program to have the Company’s core technology integrated and inherited effectively.

  • (d) Based on the existing 3C electronic components business to expand and enter the market of automotive-related and industrial equipment. The Company had achieved the set goal in sales since the year 2022, including 53% in 3C products, 19% in automotive products, and 28% in industrial equipment; also, the Company’s mid-term and long-term goal is to achieve one third of sales from each category in 2025.

  • (e) The Company has implement TPS Toyota-style production management to improve corporate management per se, reduce mold-changing time, and enhance process linkage capabilities in response to the expansion of the automotive market. Also, the Company has initiated continuous, uninterrupted, and lean improvement of manpower, materials, and manufacturing processes to meet the high-standard requirements of the automotive market through visualized management, including purchasing, feeding, manufacturing, processing, quality assurance, shipping, etc.

  • (f) Reinforce customer relationship management, conduct research on new customers and new markets, and share relevant industry information with existing customers so to make it easier for us to communicate and interact with customers and maintain customer relationships. Comprehensively grasp the customer’s product development schedule and synchronize with the customer’s project schedule so as to have the customer’s project completed before the deadline, to have the customers satisfied, and to prevent the customers from information or schedule gap.

(C). Research & Development achievements

  • (a) Introduction of AU electroplating layer laser engraving and gold stripping technology

Electronic products are getting smaller and more precise. The soldering process of B2B and other board-side connectors are destined to fail due to the solder wicking (siphon principle) as a result of the sized down device; therefore, the laser engraving and gold stripping technology is applied to prevent the solder wicking from happening; therefore, the ultra-fine soldering as thin as 0.3mm has been achieved. There are currently two production lines in service since the year of 2019.

  • (b) 6.0mm thick forging and stamping

The traditional thick metal forging and stamping is processed with hydraulic or servo press punching machines to make the material flow evenly; however, the equipment investment cost is high. The Company has invested in research and development with the use of the integrated existing crankshaft punching

6

machine/continuous die + single-engineering die/robot arm to successfully develop the thick forging and stamping production line.

  • (c) Electronic monitoring wearable device

General electronic connectors are suitable for metal or plastic welding. In terms of electronic wearable technology development, in addition to the well-known electronic wristbands, the development of electronic monitoring functional clothing is underway. Physiological functions can be monitored with the cloth worn. The connector that can be welded onto the fabric is co-developed with the customers, through the existing Insert Molding technology to have metal terminal/plastic injected, and then welded on the functional fabric for having physiological signals transmitted to the mobile phone.

  • (d) Multiple invention patents

GUI detection software AI Master new (invention) patent, AIOT common gateway interface APIs platform technology new (invention) patent, and flat image precision dimension measurement new (invention) patent help reinforce the information technology and services of G-SHANK ENTERPRISE CO., LTD.

G-SHANK ENTERPRISE CO., LTD. basing on the various needs of customers plans to build a manufacturing process integration platform and to continuously improve and optimize the operation process for the satisfaction of customers and for a better operation per se in response to future challenges.

  • (9) The impact of external competitive environment, regulatory environment, and overall business environment

  • (A) Impact of external competitive environment

Stamping industry is with a low entry threshold. More than 80% of the domestic operations are by small-scale business entities (less than 30 employees) according to the

8

statistics of Taiwan Mold & Die Association. While facing the demand for a low manufacturing cost, price competition is severe that is to the disadvantage of the Company.

Chinese government has forcefully supported the fundamental industries, including tooling industry, in recent years with various preferential measures offered continuously (tax relief / low-interest loans, etc.); also, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan have invested in the tooling industry in China with many talents cultivated. The scale, technology, management, and other aspects of the current tooling industry in China have approached or even surpassed the tooling industry in Taiwan. The rise of tooling industry in mainland China is of disadvantage to the business operation of the Company.

Therefore, the Company expects to face more severe competitions externally and exchange rate risks continuously. Especially, electronic products are the most important exports of Taiwan. The Company will continue to rely on the profound mold technology capabilities, the continuous betterment of various manufacturing processes, and the integration of upstream and downstream processes to enhance quality control. The Company bases on the advanced automation production and peripheral equipment, integrated information management system, and self-developed visual inspection system (AI CCD vision system) to gradually realize unmanned and automation production. The Company has comprehensive mold design, processing, and assembly capabilities with more than 95% mold parts made in-house, and can quickly cooperate with customers to develop precision parts and to prepare samples. There are 15 factories and 2 offices globally with the mold R&D centers set up in Taiwan and Shanghai. The R&D budget accounts for 3% of the Company’s annual revenue. While facing the challenges of COVID-19 pandemic, the exchange rate, and soaring labor and raw materials cost, the Company actively introduced manufacturing process optimization internally to control costs and expenses. The main product portfolio had helped the Company generated NT$6.78 billion in revenue and an 3.71% growth in operating profit.

In prospect, the Company is to work centralized on the mid-term and long-term transformation plan, and to focus on the development in the industrial machinery and smart automotives continuously with a hope to keep competitors in distance and to secure a long-term stable growth.

(B) Regulatory environment

Since the United Nations' adoption of the Paris Agreement in 2015, which sets the global target of limiting the rise in global temperatures to within 2°C above pre-industrial levels and striving to limit it within 1.5°C, countries and businesses around the world have proposed their own carbon reduction targets. For instance, the Taiwanese government plans to revise the "Greenhouse Gas Reduction and Management Act" to the "Climate Change Adaptation Act" and include a net-zero emissions target by 2050 in the regulation. Therefore, the global shift towards a low-carbon transformation is an irreversible trend.

Our company actively promotes carbon reduction work in line with the United Nations and national policies. However, the primary task before launching carbon reduction work is to understand one's greenhouse gas emissions. Only then can we implement targeted measures to maximize carbon reduction benefits. Therefore, our company adopts international standards, ISO 14064-1:2018, to preliminarily complete the systematized inventory of greenhouse gas emissions and establishment of a list, as well as internal documentation and verification procedures. We provide reference for future implementation of economically effective reduction and improvement measures, and strive towards a low-carbon economy.

9

  • (C) Impact of overall business environment

We while facing the aforementioned external competition and domestic production cost increase base on the business philosophy of sustainable management, continuous technology innovation, manufacturing process integration from top to bottom, new project introduction, creation of an environment complying with regulations, etc. to be differentiated from the competitors in the sense of technology/delivery time/quality/environmental protection so to exercise our greatest advantage to give customers a peace of mind. We must secure an irreplaceable dominant position in the supply chain, adhere to a prudent and rigorous management attitude and concept, and continue to cultivate talents and develop specialized technologies at the 17 operation bases worldwide with a global supply network and sales system formed. The Company shall face up to the uncertain factors in the global economy calmly and respond to the challenges with a rigorous and responsible attitude for the pursuit of an optimized cost structure and the creation of better and finer quality products that are recognized by customers and will help generate more profits for the good of the shareholders and employees taking as a whole.

Please refer to Note IV.17 to the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policy on income recognition. Also, please refer to Note VI.24 for the operating income in detail.

The operating income of G-SHANK GROUP is mainly generated from the production and sales of molds and stamping parts. The timing of income recognition is based on the transaction conditions agreed with each individual customer. An inappropriate timing for income recognition and unreasonable estimation of the refund liabilities for sales returns and sales discounts are key matters for income recognition, which will have an impact on the financial performance of G-SHANK GROUP. The independent auditor has the income recognition classified as a key audit matter in auditing the consolidated financial statements of G-SHANK GROUP.

15

The auditing procedures implemented by the independent auditors for the aforementioned key audit matters include: Understanding the sales process of G-SHANK GROUP, testing the internal control related to income recognition, reviewing the terms of the sales with the major customers, performing income cut-off tests, and checking the book-entry of sales returns and discounts, the measurement of the estimated refund liabilities for sales returns and sales discounts, and the implementation of analytical procedures.

II. Inventory evaluation

Please refer to Note IV.11 of the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policy of inventory evaluation. please refer to Note V.2(4) of the consolidated financial statements for the major sources of uncertainty of significant estimates and assumptions. Please refer to Note VI.5 of the consolidated financial statements for inventory details.

G-SHANK GROUP is mainly engaged in the production and sale of molds and stamping parts with the production and sales policies formed that are indirectly affected by the needs of end-user. The cost of inventory could be un-recoverable due to the occurrence of inventory damaged, outdated, or price dropped entirely or partially; also, when the estimated cost to be invested to completion and the estimated sale expenses increased. The use and value of inventories rely on the management’s inventory policy and sale forecast. However, a forecast comes with uncertainties. Therefore, the independent director has the inventory evaluation classified as one of the key audit matters in auditing the consolidated financial statements of G-SHANK GROUP.

A decisive factor in the value of inventories is the estimated net realizable value, which is based on the most reliable evidence of the expected realizable amount of inventories available at the time of estimation. Therefore, the relevant audit procedures of the independent auditor include reviewing and assessing whether the policy of G-SHANK GROUP in determining the net realizable value of inventories can reasonably reflect the forecast of future inventory sales, historical experience and other specific circumstances, inventory aging analysis and testing so to identify whether an allowance for inventory loss in valuation is appropriated reasonably according to historical experience for a specific obsolete inventory, the correlation between the assessment of past events and the yearend situation, and the impact of the price or cost fluctuation related to the said post events on the net realizable value of inventory.

OTHER MATTERS

Regarding the subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial report of G-SHANK GROUP and the relevant information of the subsidiaries disclosed in Note XIII of the consolidated financial report, the financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 of G-SHANK, INC. are prepared in conformity with the generally accepted principles of the USA, the financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 of G-S G-SHANK (Thai) Co., Ltd. are prepared in conformity with the generally accepted principles of Thailand, and the financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 of G-SHANK ENTERPRISE (M) SDN are prepared in conformity with the generally accepted principles of Malaysia, which were audited by other certified public accountants instead of the independent auditor. The financial statements of G-SHANK, INC., G-SHANK (Thai) Co., Ltd., and G-SHANK ENTERPRISE (M) SDN are translated in conformity with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms” and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) that was recognized by the Financial Supervisory Commission, International Accounting Standards, Interpretations, and Notices (IFRS), Interpretation (IFRIC) and Interpretative Announcement (SIC). The independent auditor has completed all necessary auditing procedures. Therefore, the opinions of the independent auditor on the unadjusted amounts in the aforementioned financial statements of the subsidiaries are based on the audit reports of other certified public accountants and the results of additional audit procedures performed by them in compliance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms” and generally auditing principles of the ROC. The

16

total assets of the aforementioned subsidiaries were NT$1,077,162 thousand and NT$1,050,706 thousand on December 31, 2022 and 2021, accounting for 11.14% and 11.45% of the total consolidated assets, respectively. The net operating income from January 1 to December 31, 2022 and 2021 were NT$794,679 thousand and NT$810,628 thousand, accounting for 11.72% and 12.63% of the consolidated net operating income, respectively.

Please refer to the independent auditor’s report issued with additional sections added by the independent auditor for the 2022 and 2021 parent alone financial reports prepared by G-SHANK GROUP.

THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANAGEMENT AND GOVERNANCE UNIT FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The responsibility of the management is to have the consolidated financial statements presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms,” International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) that were recognized by the Financial Supervisory Commission, International Accounting Standards, Interpretations, and Notices (IFRSs), Interpretation (IFRIC) and Interpretative Announcement (SIC). Also, maintain the necessary internal controls related to the consolidated financial statements to ensure that the consolidated financial statements are free of any material misstatement arising from frauds or errors.

In the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, the management’s responsibility also includes assessing the continuing operation of G-SHANK GROUP, the disclosure of the relevant matters, and the adoption of the continuing operation accounting base, unless the management intends to liquidate G-SHANK GROUP or cease the business operation, or there is lack of any option except for liquidation or suspension.

The governance unit (including the Audit Committee or supervisors) of G-SHANK GROUP is responsible for supervising the financial reporting process.

CPA’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR AUDITING THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The purpose of the independent auditor’s auditing of the consolidated financial statements is to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement arising from frauds or errors and with an audit report issued. Reasonable assurance means high assurance. However, the audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards does not guarantee to have any material misstatement in the consolidated financial statements detected. Material misstatement could be arising from frauds or errors. If the misstated amount or aggregated amount is reasonably expected to affect the economic decisions made by the readers of the consolidated financial statements, it is considered significant.

The independent auditors when conducting the audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards shall exercise professional judgment and maintain professional suspicion. The independent auditors also perform the following auditing tasks:

  • I. Identify and evaluate the risk of material misstatement arising from frauds or errors of the consolidated financial statements; design and implement proper responsive measures for the assessed risks; also, obtain sufficient and adequate audit evidence for forming an audit opinion. Frauds may involve conspiracy, forgery, deliberate omission, false declaration, or violation of internal control; therefore, the risk of material misstatement arising from fraud is higher than that caused by errors.

  • II. Obtain the necessary understanding of the internal control related to the audit in order to design appropriate audit procedures under the circumstance, but the purpose is not to express an opinion on

17

the effectiveness of the internal control of G-SHANK GROUP.

  • III. Assess the appropriateness of the accounting policies adopted by the management; also, the reasonableness of the accounting estimates and related disclosures made.

  • IV. Based on the audit evidence obtained, make conclusions on the suitability of the continuing operation accounting base adopted by the management and whether or not the events or circumstances causing significant doubts to the continuing operation ability of G-SHANK GROUP are with significant uncertainties. If the independent auditors believe that such events or circumstances are with significant uncertainties, it is necessary to remind the readers of the consolidated financial statements in the audit report to pay attention to the relevant disclosure or to revise the audit opinion when such disclosures are inappropriate. The conclusion of the independent auditors is based on the audit evidence obtained as of the audit report date. However, future events or circumstances may result in the inability of G-SHANK GROUP to continue operating.

  • V. Assess the overall presentation, structure, and content of the consolidated financial statements (including the relevant notes) and whether or not the relevant transactions and events in the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly.

  • VI. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence on the financial information of the individual business entity within the GROUP in order to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. The independent auditors are responsible for guiding, supervising, and implementing the auditing process of the GROUP; also, are responsible for forming an opinion on the audit of the GROUP.

The matters communicated by the independent auditors to the governing unit include the scope and timing of the planned audit, and the significant findings (including the major nonconformities of internal controls identified in the auditing process).

The independent auditors have provided to the governing unit the declaration of independence of the CPA Firm personnel subject to the Code of Ethics; also, have communicated with the governing unit regarding the relationship and other matters (including the relevant protection measures) that may affect the independence of the independent auditors.

The independent auditors have based on the communications with the governing unit to determine the key audit matters to be performed on the 2021 consolidated financial statements of G-SHANK GROUP. The independent auditors shall state the key audit matters in the audit report except for the specific matters prohibited from being disclosed, or, in rare cases; the independent auditors decide not to have specific matters communicated in the audit report since the negative effect of such disclosure can be reasonably expected to be greater than the increase of public interest.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To: G-SHANK ENTERPRISE CO., LTD.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S OPINION

We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of G-SHANK ENTERPRISE CO., LTD. as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, retained earnings, and cash flows for the years then ended.

In our opinion, based on our audit and the audit reports of other independent auditors (please refer to the relevant paragraphs for details), the parent company only financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of G-SHANK as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firm”.

BASIS OF AN AUDIT OPINION

We conducted our audit in accordance with the “Rules Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountings” and generally accepted auditing standards. The responsibilities of the independent auditors under these standards will be further explained in the audit performed on the consolidated financial statements. The personnel of the CPA Firm subject to the independence requirement has acted independently from the business operations of G-SHANK in accordance with the Code of Ethics and have performed other responsibilities of the Code of Ethics. We believe that our audit and other CPA’s audit reports provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

KEY AUDIT MATTERS

The key audit matters refer to the most important matters in auditing the 2022 parent company only financial statements of G-SHANK in accordance with the professional judgment of the independent auditors. These matters have been handled during the process of reviewing the parent company only financial statements as a whole with audit opinions formed. The independent auditor does not express an independent opinion on these matters. The independent auditor determines that the key audit matters to be communicated in the audit report are as follows:

III. Income recognition

Please refer to Note 4.(15) to the parent company only financial statements for the accounting policy on income recognition. Also, please refer to Note 6.(21) for the operating income in detail.

The operating income of G-SHANK is mainly generated from the production and sales of molds and stamping parts. The timing of income recognition is based on the transaction conditions agreed with each individual customer. An inappropriate timing for income recognition and unreasonable estimation of the refund liabilities for sales returns and sales discounts are key matters for income recognition, which will have an impact on the financial performance of G-SHANK. The independent auditor has the income recognition classified as a key audit matter in auditing the parent company only financial statements of G-SHANK.

The auditing procedures implemented by the independent auditors for the aforementioned key audit

25

matters include: Understanding the sales process of G-SHANK, testing the internal control related to income recognition, reviewing the terms of the sales with the major customers, performing income cut-off tests, and checking the book-entry of sales returns and discounts, the measurement of the estimated refund liabilities for sales returns and sales discounts, and the implementation of analytical procedures.

IV. Inventory evaluation

Please refer to Note 4.(9) of the parent company only financial statements for the accounting policy of inventory evaluation. please refer to Note 5.(2)(C) of the parent company only financial statements for the major sources of uncertainty of significant estimates and assumptions. Please refer to Note 6.(5) of the parent company only financial statements for inventory details.

G-SHANK is mainly engaged in the production and sale of molds and stamping parts with the production and sales policies formed that are indirectly affected by the needs of end-user. The cost of inventory could be un-recoverable due to the occurrence of inventory damaged, outdated, or price dropped entirely or partially; also, when the estimated cost to be invested to completion and the estimated sale expenses increased. The use and value of inventories rely on the management’s inventory policy and sale forecast. However, a forecast comes with uncertainties. Therefore, the independent director has the inventory evaluation classified as one of the key audit matters in auditing the parent company only financial statements of G-SHANK.

A decisive factor in the value of inventories is the estimated net realizable value, which is based on the most reliable evidence of the expected realizable amount of inventories available at the time of estimation. Therefore, the relevant audit procedures of the independent auditor include reviewing and assessing whether the policy of G-SHANK in determining the net realizable value of inventories can reasonably reflect the forecast of future inventory sales, historical experience and other specific circumstances, inventory aging analysis and testing so to identify whether an allowance for inventory loss in valuation is appropriated reasonably according to historical experience for a specific obsolete inventory, the correlation between the assessment of past events and the yearend situation, and the impact of the price or cost fluctuation related to the said post events on the net realizable value of inventory.

OTHER MATTERS

Regarding the parent company only financial report of G-SHANK and the relevant information of the investee company disclosed in Note 13. of the parent company only financial report, the financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 of G-SHANK, INC. are prepared in conformity with the generally accepted principles of the USA, the financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 of G-S G-SHANK (Thai) Co., Ltd. are prepared in conformity with the generally accepted principles of Thailand, and the financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 of G-SHANK ENTERPRISE (M) SDN are prepared in conformity with the generally accepted principles of Malaysia, which were audited by other certified public accountants instead of the independent auditor. The financial statements of G-SHANK, INC., G-SHANK (Thai) Co., Ltd., and G-SHANK ENTERPRISE (M) SDN are translated in conformity with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms” and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) that was recognized by the Financial Supervisory Commission, International Accounting Standards, Interpretations, and Notices (IFRS), Interpretation (IFRIC) and Interpretative Announcement (SIC). The independent auditor has completed all necessary auditing procedures. Therefore, the opinions of the independent auditor on the unadjusted amounts in the aforementioned financial statements of the subsidiaries are based on the audit reports of other certified public accountants and the results of additional audit procedures performed by them in compliance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms” and generally auditing principles of the ROC. The total assets of the aforementioned subsidiaries

26

were NT$909,365 thousand and NT$868,806 thousand on December 31, 2022 and 2021 accounting for 11.06% and 11.10% of the total parent company only assets, respectively. The net operating income from January 1 to December 31, 2022 and 2021 were NT$73,822 thousand and NT$138,640 thousand, accounting for 6.82% and 17.3% of the parent company only net operating income, respectively. Recognized the other comprehensive profit and loss of the subsidiaries and affiliated companies for an amount of NT$59,367 thousand and NT$(53,971) thousand, accounting for 6.25% and (7.99)% of the total comprehensive profit and loss, respectively.

THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANAGEMENT AND GOVERNANCE UNIT FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The responsibility of the management is to have the parent alone financial report prepared fairly in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms” and maintain the necessary internal control related to the preparation of the parent alone financial report so to assure that the financial report is free of material misstatement.

In the preparation of the parent company only financial statements, the management’s responsibility also includes assessing the continuing operation of G-SHANK, the disclosure of the relevant matters, and the adoption of the continuing operation accounting base, unless the management intends to liquidate G-SHANK or cease the business operation, or there is lack of any option except for liquidation or suspension.

The governance unit (including the Audit Committee or supervisors) of G-SHANK is responsible for supervising the financial reporting process.

CPA’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR AUDITING THE PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The purpose of the independent auditor’s auditing of the parent company only financial statements is to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements are free of material misstatement arising from frauds or errors and with an audit report issued. Reasonable assurance means high assurance. However, the audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards does not guarantee to have any material misstatement in the parent company only financial statements detected. Material misstatement could be arising from frauds or errors. If the misstated amount or aggregated amount is reasonably expected to affect the economic decisions made by the readers of the consolidated financial statements, it is considered significant.

The independent auditors when conducting the audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards shall exercise professional judgment and maintain professional suspicion. The independent auditors also perform the following auditing tasks:

  • VII. Identify and evaluate the risk of material misstatement arising from frauds or errors of the parent company only financial statements; design and implement proper responsive measures for the assessed risks; also, obtain sufficient and adequate audit evidence for forming an audit opinion. Frauds may involve conspiracy, forgery, deliberate omission, false declaration, or violation of internal control; therefore, the risk of material misstatement arising from fraud is higher than that caused by errors.

  • VIII.Obtain the necessary understanding of the internal control related to the audit in order to design appropriate audit procedures under the circumstance, but the purpose is not to express an opinion on the effectiveness of the internal control of G-SHANK.

  • IX. Assess the appropriateness of the accounting policies adopted by the management; also, the reasonableness of the accounting estimates and related disclosures made.

27

  • X. Based on the audit evidence obtained, make conclusions on the suitability of the continuing operation accounting base adopted by the management and whether or not the events or circumstances causing significant doubts to the continuing operation ability of G-SHANK are with significant uncertainties. If the independent auditors believe that such events or circumstances are with significant uncertainties, it is necessary to remind the readers of the parent company only financial statements in the audit report to pay attention to the relevant disclosure or to revise the audit opinion when such disclosures are inappropriate. The conclusion of the independent auditors is based on the audit evidence obtained as of the audit report date. However, future events or circumstances may result in the inability of G-SHANK to continue operating.

  • XI. Assess the overall presentation, structure, and content of the parent company only financial statements (including the relevant notes) and whether or not the relevant transactions and events in the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly.

  • XII. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence on the financial information of the individual business entity within the G-SHANK in order to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. The independent auditors are responsible for guiding, supervising, and implementing the auditing process of the G-SHANK; also, are responsible for forming an opinion on the audit of the G-SHANK.

The matters communicated by the independent auditors to the governing unit include the scope and timing of the planned audit, and the significant findings (including the major nonconformities of internal controls identified in the auditing process).

The independent auditors have provided to the governing unit the declaration of independence of the CPA Firm personnel subject to the Code of Ethics; also, have communicated with the governing unit regarding the relationship and other matters (including the relevant protection measures) that may affect the independence of the independent auditors.

The independent auditors have based on the communications with the governing unit to determine the key audit matters to be performed on the 2021 parent company only financial statements of G-SHANK. The independent auditors shall state the key audit matters in the audit report except for the specific matters prohibited from being disclosed, or, in rare cases; the independent auditors decide not to have specific matters communicated in the audit report since the negative effect of such disclosure can be reasonably expected to be greater than the increase of public interest.
