“Annex 1”
Business Report
To Shareholders Summary
For the full year 2020, the consolidated sales of K Laser Group grew 5% to 5.43 billion NT dollars. The annual gross profit margin was 24%, and the operating profit jumped more than six-fold to 229million NT dollars. Net profit of 2020 was 144million NT dollars, EPS 0.96.
It is remarkable that we were able to grow our sales revenue and net profit when COVID-19 rages worldwide. Thanks to the fact that we had kept sufficient stock in our channels worldwide, we were able to keep our sales activities going without being disrupted by the pandemic while the improvement of productivity had offset the cost increase resulted from the surge of shipping rates. In addition, with the completion of organization restructuring and the implementation of strict expense control, the expense ratio had decreased 3%. All the above had contributed to the improvement in our financial performance in 2020.
Technology Development
Over the years, we have kept on improving our true-seamless and wide-web products to meet the market demands. We have also strived to drive customer stickiness, and ultimately elevate our overall profit margin through the following practices.
-
We have dedicated ourselves to improve our design and origination capabilities to provide various unique products with security functions and help customers to achieve desired outcome.
-
We have directed our research and development efforts to create products that are eco-friendly, resistant to high temperature and humidity, and have high abrasion and folding endurance.
-
We have continued to embrace the latest technologies to ensure our competitiveness in the security label market.
Our Strategy and Global Situation
Our research and development efforts are influenced by these noteworthy trends.
-
1.) The plastic waste reduction policy has spurred more and more customers to use eco-friendly materials for packaging.
-
2.) The plastic waste reduction policy has spurred more and more customers to use eco-friendly materials for packaging.
-
3.) The plastic waste reduction policy has spurred more and more customers to use eco-friendly materials for packaging.
-
4.) The plastic waste reduction policy has spurred more and more customers to use eco-friendly materials for packaging.
In response to the above trends, we already had our products qualified for digital printing by customers. We have also been adjusting our production to exploit the demand for environmentally friendly products, and enhancing our technology integration capabilities to satisfy the appetite for multi-featured security solutions. Making an inventory strategy to move sales quickly will be one of our focuses going forward.
In terms of global situation, there is a growing prospect for a strong recovery of world economy as vaccination gets popular across countries. However, the treacherous political- economic relations among countries that exert forms of sanction any time at will may impact our business operations unpredictably. At such a time, we must take advantage of our production establishments and sales channels across the globe to keep our business thriving. We plan to enhance the function of some overseas subsidiaries to turn them into regional headquarters and have them support each other to achieve the greatest benefits for the Group.
Finally, we would like to express our gratitude to our shareholders for your supports and our employees for their efforts. We will keep the great spirit of teamwork and continue to lead K Laser successfully in the future.
Sincerely,
Alex Kuo Chairman

Independent Auditors’ Report
Submitted to K Laser Technology Inc.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements (including a summary of significant accounting policies).
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors (as referred to in the Other Matters section), the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of K Laser Technology Inc. and its subs idiaries as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and their consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. We
9
conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, the approval letter with Ref. No. 1090360805 issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China on February 25, 2020 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 section of the auditors’ report. We are independent of K Laser Technology Inc. in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China and have fulfilled our other responsibilities in accordance with the Norm. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for 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 K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2020. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Recognition of Sales Revenue
The sales revenue of K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries is mainly generated from the manufacture of laser films, anti-counterfeit labels, precision optical components and optical instruments, etc. The sales from the products sold during the year 2020 were significantly focused on one single customer. S ince the sales revenue and the verification thereof were significant to the consolidated financial statements, we therefore identified the sales revenue from the said customer as a key audit matter for the year. Refer to Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements for the details on accounting policies related to revenue recognition.
Our key audit procedures performed in respect of the aforementioned key audit matters included understanding of the internal control procedures relevant to sale transactions, and confirmation and assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls related to sale transactions. In addition, we also sampled the records of the transactions made with the major customers to review their external shipping
10
documents and export declaration forms and verify that the payment recipients were consistent with the entities to which products were sold. Other Matters
We did not audit the financial statements of some subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements of K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries, but such statements were instead audited by other auditors. Our opinion stated in the consolidated financial statements, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the financial statements of some subsidiaries, is based solely on the report of other auditors. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the total assets of the aforementioned subsidiaries amounted to NT$439,989 thousand and NT$223,410 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 5.53% and 3.29% of the consolidated total assets, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the net operating revenue of these subsidiaries were NT$285,507 thousand and NT$323,629 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 5.25% and 6.22% of the consolidated net operating revenue, respectively. The financial statements of some investee companies accounted for using the equity method were audited by other auditors. The amounts within the consolidated financial statements for those investee companies were based solely on the reports of other auditors. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, investments of the aforementioned investee companies accounted for using the equity method were NT$123,089 thousand and NT$110,335 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 1.55% and 1.62% of the consolidated total assets, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the amounts of investment gain recognized by the aforementioned investee companies and accounted for using the equity method were NT$13,315 thousand and NT$9,460 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 5.74% and (8.20)% of the consolidated net profit or loss before tax, respectively. Refer to Note 36 to the consolidated financial statements for relevant information of the above investee companies which we have not audited but were audited by other auditors.
We have also audited the financial statements of K Laser Technology Inc. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 on which we have issued an unqualified opinion and the auditors’ report mentioned in the Other Matters section for reference.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
11
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 IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and 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 ability of K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to the going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries 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 financial reporting process of K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries.
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional jud gment 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
12
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 internal controls of K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries.
-
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 ability of K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries 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 K Laser Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements (including the disclosures) and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities 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, and also 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
13
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 that those matters of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 are the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless any 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.

We conducted our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31 , 2019 in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, the approval letter with Ref. No. 1090360805 issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China on February 25, 2020 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 section of the auditors’ report. We are independent of K Laser Technology Inc. in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China and have fulfilled our other responsibilities in accordance with the Norm.
- 22 -
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for 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 financial statements of K Laser Technology Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2020. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Recognition of Sales Revenue
The sales revenue of K Laser Technology Inc. is mainly generated from the manufacture of laser films, anti-counterfeit labels, laser paper, etc., which has been affected by increasingly saturated market and competition within the industry. In addition to developing new products in recent years, acquiring new customers is also a key operational strategy. To meet the demand for sales to customers in this year, inventories are stored in overseas shipping warehouse whereby warehouse custodian is responsible for the checking, acceptance and storage of inventories, as well as sending out shipment information to K Laser Technology Inc. for verification. K Laser Technology Inc. recognized sales revenue based on the shipment information provided by warehouse cust odian. Therefore, the validity of sales revenue transactions recognized from overseas shipping warehouse and timing of recognition were identified as key audit matters for the year ended December 31, 2020. Refer to Note 4 to the financial statements for the details on accounting policies related to revenue recognition. Our key audit procedure performed in respect of the aforementioned key audit matters comprised the following:
-
We understood the internal control procedures for the recognition of sales revenue from overseas shipping warehouse, tested and assessed the effectiveness of related internal controls.
-
We performed substantive tests of sales revenue transactions from overseas shipping warehouse.
-
We confirmed the ending inventories of overseas shipping warehouse by letter.
Other Matters
- 23 -
The financial statements of some investee companies accounted for using the equity method for the years dated December 31, 2020 and 2019 were audited by other auditors. Thus in our opinion expressed in the aforementioned financial report, the amounts within the financial statements for those investee companies were based solely on the reports of other auditors. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the aforementioned investments accounted for using the equity met hod were NT$436,955 thousand and NT$252,995 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 8.88% and 5.77% of the total assets, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the amounts of investment gain recognized by the aforementioned investee companies and accounted for using the equity method were NT$42,475 thousand and NT$14,863 thousand, respectively, which accounted for (28.24)% and (12.62)% of the profit (loss) before tax, respectively. Refer to Note 35 to the financial statements for relevant information on the above investee companies which we have not audited but were audited by other auditors.
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 the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of 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 ability of K Laser Technology Inc. to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to the going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate K Laser Technology Inc. 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 financial reporting process of K Laser Technology Inc.
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
- 24 -
to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 internal controls of K Laser Technology Inc.
-
3.Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made b y 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 ability of K Laser Technology Inc. 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 K Laser Technology Inc. to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
25 -
-
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.
-
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the segments within K Laser Technology Inc. to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the corporate audit, and als o 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 th at 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 re asonably be thought to bear on our independence (and where applicable, related safeguards).
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine that those matters of most significance in the audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 are the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless any 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.
