Highwealth Construction Corporation Business Report
Hello, ladies and gentlemen:
On behalf of all my colleagues in Highwealth Construction Corporation, I would like to thank all shareholders again for your support and care over the past year!
As we look back on 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect the world. In addition, major global events such as the UK's formal departure from the EU, the inauguration of US President Joe Biden, the Tokyo Olympics is the first Olympic without a live audience but with the most people viewed online, the impact on the world economy and supply chain from the blockage of the Suez Canal by the giant container ship "Ever Given", and the ongoing extreme weather events around the world continue to impact our living environment. In Taiwan, although the pandemic in the country got worse in May and was once on Level 3 alert, Taiwan was still able to fight against the pandemic compared to other countries. The money came in to Taiwan as a result of the appreciation of the New Taiwan dollar, and Taiwanese businessmen were able to return to Taiwan with plenty of capital, driving Taiwan's industrial development and employment, resulting in an economic growth rate of 6.28%, the best in 11 years. In addition, the stock market also reached new highs several times, reaching the 18,000-point record. The strong exports drive a huge increase in domestic capital, and a better domestic consumption, which support enterprises to continue to invest to make a positive economic circulation.
In the real estate sector, the increase in investment in Taiwan has led to stronger growth in economy and job opportunities, better income, increased domestic demand (4.7 million people under the age of 34). Moreover, the high costs of wages and construction materials, as well as the negative interest on excess reserves worldwide, also indicate the strong future momentum in the construction industry. As we faced the challenge from our competitors, the first and most important thing is to identify what the consumers want. We have handed over approximately 4,000 to 6,000 houses a year, and our main concern is "What do the customers want?" Our mission is to create a safe and happy environment for Taiwanese people to live and work in, to encourage young people to own houses, to think positively about starting a family, and to become a positive influence in society; this is also a potential opportunity for the future

housing market.
In 2021, despite the complex global political and economic situation, Highwealth and its subsidiaries achieved a consolidated revenue of $44.3 billion, reaching an all-time high, with gross margins rising back to 31% and earnings per share of over $6. We have kept our selfdiscipline and professionalism, flexibly adjusted our business strategies to meet market demand, to ensure that the construction projects have remained stable, and to maintain a leading position in the industry with innovative concepts and steady operations. We have invested $33.9 billion in land purchases, making us the largest buyer in Taiwan for land investment and commercial real estate in the year. According to the survey of the top 2,000 companies in 2021 by CommonWealth Magazine, Highwealth Construction ranked the 3rd in the construction category, the 36th in the most profitable companies, and the 70th in Total, which is a remarkable achievement.
With a registered capital of $15.6 billion, the Group is in the process of transforming itself from a construction company to a property development company. We are now focusing on long-term steady income from our operations, including commercial real estate and hotel business, and we are moving towards a new milestone in increasing our assets by diversifying our business strategies. We have partnered with top brands in the world. Marriott's Tainan Anping "Aloft" Hotel opened in January 2022 and has successfully driven the tourists to visit the city. In the future, Hyatt Regency New Taipei City and Hyatt Regency Kaohsiung will also be launched soon.
For 2022, we will continue to actively promote land-purchasing cases in the north, central and south. If approvals are obtained successfully, new high profile cases would include the Xinrui and Shanjie sections in Zhongli District, Taoyuan; the Platinum Aiyue, Municipal Aiyue, and Romain Laolan in Xitun District, Taichung City; the Xindu section in Sanmin District, Kaohsiung City; the Platinum Aiyue in Zuoying District; the Zhongzheng No. 1 House in Qianjin District; and the Left Bank of the Paris River ( by a subsidiary of the Group). Meanwhile, the Company continues to pay attention to all kinds of changes to national economy, business environment changes related to livelihood wealth. This year, the number of promoted cases is expected to maintain steady growth, of course, we will also work harder to return the support and affirmation of shareholders.

Next, I would like to report to the shareholders of Highwealth’s consolidated revenue of NT$44.3 billion for 2021, in which the contributing construction cases include Hsin Sen Hou Condominium in Qingpu District, Shuanghu Hui, Taipei CBD Times Square, Chungyan A+ Condominium, Highwealth Manor, Fu Jiang Cui Condominium, Tayue and Tahe Condominiums at Jiangcui District, and Yueyang project in Science Park in Hsinchu, etc. The contributing construction cases to the revenue at Taichung comprise Hengyung Condominium, Shuhe Condominium, Castle of Orion, Boshi Condominium, Love of Orion, Taichung Country No.1 Courtyard, etc. In the south, the contributing construction cases include Up East Town in Tainan, Huaren Hui Condominium, Yueh Cheng Condominium, Bo Yue Condominium, Da Yue Condominium, Boai Hsianghsieh Condominium, and Meishu Tayue Condominium in Kaohsiung City, coupled with the revenue contributions from subsidiary, Chyi Yuh Construction’s projects, Boyuan Construction’s projects, namely Taipei Chungshan Kaiyan Condominium, Runlong Construction’s projects, namely Berkely Park, Zhong Yen A+, Taichung Di Bao Condominium, Kuo Pin Condominium, Runlong Condominium, True Love Condominium, Ture Love No.2 Condominium, and Yueh Cheng Condominium. These cases had created an after-tax profit of NT$6.45 per share for 2021!
Highwealth is committed to change and innovation. Apart from the sales made by subsidiaries, new projects are launched consistently to cater to the market demand in northern, central, and southern Taiwan. In the next six years, new houses completed are expected to exceed NT$300 billion. When we face competition posed by our counterparts, we focus on our foundation in the core construction business, and continue to acquire land to stay ahead of the industry and seek further market opportunities for double the value. In response to a severe labor shortage, we have taken early actions. In addition to the Building Information Modeling (BIM), which has already been in use for 10 years, and precast construction, the aluminum modules and pre-assembled steel pillars have been developed, and we are also studying the possibility that robots may be used to carry the construction materials. Although the costs will rise, the use of new technologies can be applied at our sites in the northern, central and southern areas. The new technologies shall be helpful in increasing the engineering quality and the overall construction technology.
Highwealth is committed to our philosophy of “integrity” and “sustainable development”, while closely monitoring the housing demand, change in the economic
- 6 -
environment, improve products and service quality, and actively optimize our development and finances in order to maximize the benefits and value for our customers, shareholders and employees, as well as to contribute to society. The number of employees of the Group has grown steadily from 165 when it first listed in 2000 to about 1,500 now. In the future, we will continue to invest more in Taiwan and provide more job opportunities in Taiwan, so we can contribute to the economic growth of Taiwan together.
Finally, I would like to thank all gentlemen and ladies who are here today for your continued support and care. Thank you!

-
(IV) Impacts posed by external competition, the regulatory environment and the overall business environment
-
External competition: According to the latest statistics from the Ministry of the Interior, the total number of houses to be transacted in 2021 was 348,000, the highest in 8 years, with an annual increase of 6.62% compared to 2020. The number of transactions has been rising for 5 consecutive years since 2016, which reflects the market's strong demand, showing that the overall housing
-
12 -
market is going up in terms of price and volume. In addition, in response to the returning of Taiwanese businessmen and high-end customers, the demand for large luxury houses has increased greatly. The Company continues to lead the industry and obtain the largest market share by taking advantage of its brand, team and flexible marketing strategy, in response to rapid changes in the industry.
-
Regulatory environment: The Central Bank initiated the first rate hike in 10 years, and has raised interest rates by 0.25 percentage points. The Bank has also launched four policies to curb real estate speculation and reinforce four real estate credit controls, including lowering the mortgage ratio for natural persons to purchase high-priced residential properties and set the mortgage ceiling for third or more house purchases. The Ministry of the Interior has launched a major campaign to curb speculation in the housing market, and has proposed amendments to the "Equalization of Land Rights Act" and the "Real Estate Broking Management Act" to restrict pre-sales and resales of newly completed houses, and to impose heavy penalties on the speculators in housing prices. In addition, there are also changes to the Actual Price Registration 2.0 and House and Land Transactions Income Tax 2.0. The Company will focus more on market trends and study the laws and regulations to ensure shareholders' rights and interests.
-
Overall business environment: Last year, the domestic demand for residential properties increased, resulting in an increase in housing prices in the seven metropolitan areas. Among them, the main reason was that TSMC, the " Protector of the Nation", invested and set up a factory in Kaohsiung. The TSMC's factory in Southern Taiwan Science Park has driven the housing price to rise in the Great Southern of Taiwan. The market is supported by many factors, such as the continued high growth of exports, the overall economic support, interest rates are still at the low level and capital is plentiful, inflationary concerns are worsening, wages and building materials and other construction costs are rising; therefore, housing prices are still going up rather than down. In North Taiwan, the real estate market is mature, and it is estimated that in 10 years, the entire business activity center in the north will move to
-
13 -
Taoyuan, while the central and southern areas have the advantages in population and industrial migration, so that housing prices in the central area will continue to rise. In conclusion, the Company is optimistic about the future of the housing market as this year will be a good opportunity for home buyers to purchase houses to live or invest in, and the profits of commercial office investments are especially steady and will be the focus of the real estate market.
In the end, I, only on behalf of the Company, would like to show my thanks to ladies and gentlemen for your encouragement and support, and wish you
All the best and family peace

Highwealth Construction Corporation Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of Highwealth Construction Corp.:
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying parent company only financial statements of Highwealth Construction Corp. (“the Company”), which comprise the parent company only balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the parent company only statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the parent company only financial position of the Company as December 31, 2021 and 2020, 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 Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the parent company only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (“the Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 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 parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key audit matters for the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 are stated as follows:
- Revenue recognition
Please refer to note 4(o) and 6(w) of the parent company only financial statements for the account policies on revenue recognition and the details of revenue. Description of key audit matter
The real estate industry, in which the Company is into, has a higher tendency of revenue fluctuation, therefore the management has set up relevant internal control procedures. The Company's sales revenue was NT$33,952,426 thousands in 2021, whether
- 22 -
revenue is presented fairly has a significant impact on financial statement. Therefore, the recognition of sales revenue is one of the most important evaluation in performing our audit procedures.
Auditing procedures performed
Our principal audit procedures included testing the effectiveness of the design and implementing the internal control system of sales revenue and collection process of the Company, as well as randomly examining sales contracts, bank account transaction record and real estate ownership transfer document, etc.In addition, we test the samples of sales transaction before and after the end of the year to ensure the correctness of sales revenue, check the related documents, and verify the timing of revenue recognition.
- Inventory valuation
Please refer to note 4(g) and 6(e) of the parent company only financial statements for the accounting policies on measuring inventory, assumption used and uncertainties considered in determining the net realizable value and the details of inventory.
Description of key audit matter
As of December 31, 2021, inventory of the Company valued NT$109,347,222 thousands, constituting 73% of the total assets, which was presented with lower of cost or net realizable value method. The judgment of net realizable value of inventory relies on management since the Group focuses on real estate industry, which is not only deeply affected by politics, economics, and revolution of housing and land taxation, but also an industry involving a large portion of capital infusion and long term payback. Thus, the valuation of inventory is one of the most important valuation in performing our audit procedures.
Auditing procedures performed
Our principal audit procedures included understanding the Company’s operating and accounting procedures for inventory valuation. Obtain the Company management’s data of inventory valuation, inspecting and recalculating the net realizable value of inventory whether adequate. The net realizable value can be assessed in both ways: through reviewing the recent selling price of the premises, or by inquiring the selling price of premises nearby from the “Actual Selling Price of Real Estate” website.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Parent Company only Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers. And for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
- 23 -
alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance (including the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company only Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the parent company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the
-
24 -
investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on this financial statements. 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.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 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.

Highwealth Construction Corporation Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of Highwealth Construction Corp.:
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Highwealth Construction Corp. and its subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and 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 significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2021 and 2020, 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 Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 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 year ended December 31, 2021 of the Group. 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. Key audit matters for the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 are stated as follows:
- Revenue recognition
Please refer to note 4(q) and 6(y) of the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policy on revenue recognition and the details of revenue. Description of key audit matter
- 32 -
The real estate industry, in which the Group is into, has a higher tendency of revenue fluctuation, therefore the management has set up relevant internal control procedures. The Group's sales revenue was NT$43,839,834 thousands in 2021, whether revenue is presented fairly has a significant impact on financial statement. Therefore, the recognition of sales revenue is one of the most important evaluation in performing our audit procedures.
Auditing procedures performed
Our principal audit procedures included testing the effectiveness of the design and implementing the internal control system of sales revenue and collection process of the Group, as well as randomly examining sales contracts, bank account transaction record and real estate ownership transfer document, etc.In addition, we test the samples of sales transaction before and after the end of the year to ensure the correctness of sales revenue, check the related documents, and verify the timing of revenue recognition.
- Inventory valuation
Please refer to note 4(h), Note 5, and 6(e) of the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policies on measuring inventory, assumption used and uncertainties considered in determining the net realizable value and the details of inventory.
Description of key audit matter
As of December 31, 2021, inventory of the Group valued NT$152,478,578 thousands, constituting 75% of the total assets, which was presented with lower of cost or net realizable value method. The judgment of net realizable value of inventory relies on management since the Group focuses on real estate industry, which is not only deeply affected by politics, economics, and revolution of housing and land taxation, but also an industry involving a large portion of capital infusion and long term payback. Thus, the valuation of inventory is one of the most important evaluation in performing our audit procedures.
Auditing procedures performed
Our principal audit procedures included understanding the Group’s operating and accounting procedures for inventory valuation. Obtain the Group management’s data of inventory valuation, inspecting and recalculating the net realizable value of inventory to ensure if it is adequate. The net realizable value can be assessed in both ways: through reviewing the recent selling price of the premises, or by inquiring the selling price of premises nearby from the “Actual Selling Price of Real Estate” website.
Other Matter
Highwealth Construction Corp. has prepared its parent company only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, on which we have issued an unmodified opinion.
- 33 -
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 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 consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance (including the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists
-
34 -
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 auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient 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 communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 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.
