(II) Land development:
-
Confronted with factors unfavorable to the developing of the housing market, including changes in the economy, the government's "Healthy Housing Market" policy, interest hikes, the Central Bank's credit control policy, the passing of the third reading of "The Equalization of Land Rights Act", in terms of land developments going forward, the residential projects will be mostly focused on urban renewals and joint development projects.
-
In response to the return of Taiwanese businesses and the global development of the supply chain, we actively developed factory and office land in industrial zones to satisfy market demand, create niche products, disperse the risk of product concentrations, and strengthen the Company's profitability.
-17-
-
We engaged in the government's recruitment projects in the wealthiest districts, developed urban renewal projects adjacent to public transportations, and actively participated in the government's goal in urban renewal and the reconstruction of urban unsafe and old building.
-
In addition to the joint construction in urban renewal projects and land development in industrial zones, we also activated existing assets by collaborating in urban renewal projects with our partners. For instance, The idle land on Minquan East Road and Jingmei District and more.
(III) Building planning and design:
We adhered to the government's net-zero emissions by 2050 goal by upholding a philosophy of sustainable management. We integrated local environmental factors in planning and design, and accounted for factors including ventilation, energy conservation, water resources, green environment, and used power-efficient equipment along with smart sensor controls in order to build a more comfortable and sustainable living space. By striving to construct green buildings under the Kuo Yang brand, we also strengthen our brand awareness.
(IV) Engineering cost, progress, and quality:
-
Building information management system has been deployed to make construction management more robust.
-
We also actively researched and developed new construction methods including creating a more industrial interior space and using porcelain slabs in the stairwells. Besides reducing the engineering time, it also helps to reduce dust and waste.
(V) Brand building and customer service:
-
Provide construction progress report to purchasing customers - Transparency in the construction progress and architectural method allows customers to understand engineering progress from the comfort of their homes, thereby recognizing Kuo Yang's thoughtfulness in construction.
-
Lifetime property health inspection - A professional management team is dedicated to caring for customers who purchased Kuo Yang projects.
-
Overall development of the community - Building community cohesion through
-18-
community events.
- Deploying digital transformation - Establishing Home Go app, a community management platform to allow for instant communications and timely service.
(VI) Market research and development:
In the midst of a global economic slump and high inflation, Taiwan's Central Bank has cumulatively increased interest rates by 0.625% and implemented a number of credit control measures on the housing market. Moreover, the passing of the amendments to the Equalization of Land Rights Act has also made the residential housing market more conservative and speculative. The outlook of the overall real estate market will be bearish.
To summarize, Kuo Yang is opting for a diverse arrangement in land development, and except for industrial land at specific areas, we have turned to urban renewal or joint construction projects in terms of residential buildings. In addition, we are also focusing on the planning, construction method, and material use in individual construction projects to reduce waste generated during the construction process and increase circular recycling, thereby constructing (nearly) carbon neutral buildings that are more environmentally friendly. We also hope to maintain the Company's operating performance and to building a quality brand image by providing precise product positioning and well-rounded service quality.

Attachment 3 2022 Financial Statements and Independent Auditor's
Report
Independent Auditor's Report (2023) Cai-Shen-Bao-Zi No. 22004605
To Kuo Yang Construction Co., Ltd.:
Audit Opinions
The Consolidated Balance Sheet of Kuo Yang Construction Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as Kuo Yang Group) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (including a summary of material accounting policies) from January 1 to December 31, 2022 and 2021 have been audited by the CPA.
In our opinion, based on the results of the CPA's audit and the audit reports of other CPAs (refer to Other Supplementary Matters), the aforementioned Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, and explanations/interpretations approved and promulgated to be effective by FSC in all material respects and are therefore sufficient in presenting the consolidated financial conditions of the Kuo Yang Group as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flow from January 1 to December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Basis of Audit Opinions
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the Standards on Auditing (TWSA). Our responsibility based on these standards will be explained in greater detail in the section on our responsibilities for the review of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The personnel of the CPA firm who are governed by regulations on independence have acted according to the ROC CPA Code of Professional Ethics and remained independent of Kuo Yang Group when fulfilling other obligations set forth in the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
-21-
The key audit matters pertain to the most important items of Kuo Yang Group's 2022 Consolidated Financial Statements as per the professional judgment of the CPA. 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 of the Consolidated Financial Statements of Kuo Yang Group for 2022 are as follows:
Appropriateness of the period in which income from the sales of houses and land is recognized
Description
Refer to Note 4 (29) in the Consolidated Financial Statements for accounting policies on operating revenue from construction. Refer to Note 6 (18) of the Consolidated Financial Report for description of accounting items.
The revenue from the sales of houses and land in the construction business is recognized when the ownership of the real estate is transferred and the property handover certificate is delivered to the customer. As the houses and land of a construction business are sold to many customers, the CPA is required to review all information on the transfer of ownership before recognizing sales revenue. The process generally involves a high amount of manual labor to determine the accuracy of the timing for recognizing sales revenue. Therefore, the CPA regarded the appropriateness of the period in which income from the sales of houses and land is recognized as one of the most important items in the audit.
Corresponding auditing procedures
The CPA has compiled the following corresponding procedures that were executed for the specific levels described in the aforementioned key audit matters:
-
We interviewed the management level to understand and review the procedures for recognizing sales revenue from the sales of houses and land and verify whether the procedures have been consistently adopted in the period of the Financial Statements.
-
We assessed and tested the appropriateness of the period in which income from the sales of houses and land is recognized by the management within a certain period after the end of the period, including the information on the transfer of ownership of the land and houses and related dates to verify the accuracy of the timing for recognizing sales revenue.
Other matters - Reference to audits of other CPAs
We did not audit certain investments accounted for through the equity method in the financial statements of Kuo Yang Group for 2022 and 2021. Those financial statements were audited by other CPAs. As such, our opinions in the aforementioned Consolidated Financial Statements on the amounts included in the
-22-
aforementioned financial statements and related information disclosed in Note 13 were based on audit reports of other CPAs. The investment on equity method totaling NT$986,405 thousand and NT$970,823 thousand as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 accounted for5.88% and 5.60% of the total assets, respectively. The comprehensive income recognized for 2022 and 2021 was NT$142,204 thousand and NT$168,898 thousand, which accounted for 50.76% and 23.05% of the total comprehensive income for the period, respectively.
Other matters - Individual Financial Statements
Kuo Yang Construction Co., Ltd. has prepared Individual Financial Statements for 2022 and 2021, for which we have issued an audit report containing an unqualified opinion plus other matters for reference.
Responsibilities of the management and the governing bodies for the Consolidated Financial Statements
The responsibility of the management was to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the "Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers", International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, and explanations/interpretations approved and promulgated to be effective by FSC to properly indicate the company's financial status and to maintain necessary internal control with regard to establishment of consolidated financial statements to ensure such financial statements did not contain any false contents as a result of fraudulence or mistakes.
When the Consolidated Financial Statements were in the process of preparation, the responsibility of the management also included assessment of the capacity of Kuo Yang Group to continue operation, disclosure of related matters and the accounting approaches to be adopted when the company continued to operate unless the management intended to liquidate or suspend the business of Kuo Yang Group if there was not any other option except liquidation or suspension of the company's business.
The governance units (including the Audit Committee) of Kuo Yang Group are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process.
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 misstatements, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an independent auditor's report. Reasonably reliable means highly reliable. However, auditing work carried
-23-
out in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (TWSA) cannot guarantee detection of significant misrepresentations in the Consolidated Financial Statements. 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.
When conducting the auditing work according to the Standards on Accounting (TWSA), we exercised our professional judgment and professional skepticism. We also execute the following tasks:
-
Identified and evaluated the risk of material misstatement due to fraud or error in the Consolidated Financial Statements; Designed and carried out appropriate countermeasures for the evaluated risks; Obtained sufficient and appropriate evidence as the basis for the audit opinion. As fraud may involve collusion, forgery, deliberate omissions, false statements, or violations of internal controls, the risks of material misstatements due to fraud are greater than those caused by errors.
-
Acquired necessary understanding about internal control which matters to audit and provide appropriate audit procedure under such circumstances. However, the purpose of such understanding is not for providing any opinion on the effectiveness of internal control of Kuo Yang Group.
-
Evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.
-
Concluded on the appropriateness of the 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 Kuo Yang Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we consider that material uncertainty exists in these matters or conditions, we are required to remind the users of the Consolidated Financial Statements to pay attention to relevant disclosure in the statements in their audit report, or revise the audit opinions when such disclosure is inappropriate. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of the auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause Kuo Yang Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluated the overall expression, structure and content of the Consolidated Financial Statements (including related notes) and if these statements present fairly the related transactions and events.
-
Obtained sufficient and appropriate proof for audit on the finances of the individual entities in Kuo Yang Group to state our opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements. We are responsible for the direction,
-24-
supervision and performance of the consolidated audit. We remain solely responsible for the audit opinions of the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The CPAs' communications with the governance units include the planned scope and period of the audit and material finding in the audit (including significant defects identified in the internal control during auditing procedures).
We provided governance units with a statement assuring the personnel of our accounting firm who are subject to independent regulations had acted according to the ROC CPA Code of Professional Ethics to remain neutral and communicated with them about the all relations and other matters (including related preventive measures) that could affect the independence of the CPA.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, the CPA determines matters that were of most significance in the audit of the 2022 Consolidated Financial Statements of Kuo Yang Group for the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Independent Auditor's Report (2023) Cai-Shen-Bao-Zi No. 22004384
To Kuo Yang Construction Co., Ltd.:
Audit Opinions
The Individual Balance Sheet of Kuo Yang Construction Co., Ltd. as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the Individual Statement of Comprehensive Income, Individual Statement of Changes in Equity, Individual Cash Flow Statement, and Notes to the Individual Financial Statements (including a summary of material accounting policies) from January 1 to December 31, 2022 and 2021 have been audited by the CPA.
In our opinion and based on our audits and reports of other CPAs, the Individual Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with the "Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers" in all material respects, and present fairly the individual financial position of Kuo Yang Construction as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and its individual financial performance and its individual cash flow from January 1 to December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Basis of Audit Opinions
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the Standards on Accounting (TWSA). Our responsibility based on these standards will be explained in greater detail in the section on our responsibilities for the review of the Individual Financial Statements. The personnel of the CPA firm who are governed by regulations on independence have acted according to the ROC CPA Code of Professional Ethics and remained independent of Kuo Yang Construction when fulfilling other obligations set forth in the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
The key audit matters pertain to the most important items of Kuo Yang Construction's 2022 Individual Financial Statements as per the professional judgment of the CPA. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Individual 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 of the Individual Financial Statements of Kuo Yang Construction for 2022 are as follows:
Appropriateness of the period in which income from the sales of houses and land is recognized Description
Refer to Note 4 (26) in the Individual Financial Statements for accounting policies on operating revenue from construction, and refer to Note 6 (17) for the explanation of accounting items.
The revenue from the sales of houses and land in the construction business is recognized when the ownership of the real estate is transferred and the property handover certificate is delivered to the customer. As the houses and land of a construction business are sold to many customers, the CPA is required to review all information on the transfer of ownership before recognizing sales revenue. The process generally involves a high amount of manual labor to
-33-
determine the accuracy of the timing for recognizing sales revenue. Therefore, the CPA regarded the appropriateness of the period in which income from the sales of houses and land is recognized as one of the most important items in the audit.
Corresponding auditing procedures
The CPA has compiled the following corresponding procedures that were executed for the specific levels described in the aforementioned key audit matters:
-
We interviewed the management level to understand and review the procedures for recognizing sales revenue from the sales of houses and land and verify whether the procedures have been consistently adopted in the period of the Financial Statements.
-
We assessed and tested the appropriateness of the period in which income from the sales of houses and land is recognized by the management within a certain period after the end of the period, including the information on the transfer of ownership of the land and houses and related dates to verify the accuracy of the timing for recognizing sales revenue.
Other matters - Reference to audits of other CPAs
We did not audit certain investments accounted for through the equity method in the financial statements of Kuo Yang Construction for 2022 and 2021. Those financial statements were audited by other CPAs. As such, our opinions in the aforementioned Individual Financial Statements on the amounts included in the aforementioned financial statements and related information disclosed in Note 13 were based on audit reports of other CPAs. The investment on equity method totaling NT$986,405 thousand and NT$970,823 thousand as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 accounted for 6.32% and 5.93% of the total assets, respectively. The comprehensive income recognized for 2022 and 2021 was NT$142,204 thousand and NT$168,898 thousand, which accounted for 50.76% and 23.05% of the total comprehensive income for the period, respectively.
Responsibilities of the management and the governing bodies for the Individual Financial Statements
The responsibility of the management was to prepare the individual financial statements in accordance with the "Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers" to properly indicate the company's financial status and to maintain necessary internal control with regard to establishment of individual financial statements to ensure such financial statements did not contain any false contents as a result of fraudulence or mistakes.
When the Individual Financial Statements were in the process of preparation, the responsibility of the management also included assessment of the capacity of Kuo Yang Construction to continue operation, disclosure of related matters and the accounting approaches to be adopted when the company continued to operate unless the management intended to liquidate or suspend the business of Kuo Yang Construction if there was not any other option except liquidation or suspension of the company's business.
The governance units (including the Audit Committee) of Kuo Yang Construction are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Individual Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Individual Financial Statements as a whole are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an independent auditor's report. Reasonably reliable means highly reliable. However, auditing work carried out in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (TWSA) cannot
-34-
guarantee detection of significant misrepresentations in the individual financial statements. 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.
When conducting the auditing work according to the Standards on Accounting (TWSA), we exercised our professional judgment and professional skepticism. We also execute the following tasks:
-
Identified and evaluated the risk of material misstatement due to fraud or error in the Individual Financial Statements. Designed and carried out appropriate countermeasures for the evaluated risks; Obtained sufficient and appropriate evidence as the basis for the audit opinion. As fraud may involve collusion, forgery, deliberate omissions, false statements, or violations of internal controls, the risks of material misstatements due to fraud are greater than those caused by errors.
-
Acquired necessary understanding about internal control which matters to audit and provide appropriate audit procedure under such circumstances. However, the purpose of such understanding is not for providing any opinion on the effectiveness of internal control of Kuo Yang Construction.
-
Evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.
-
Concluded on the appropriateness of the 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 Kuo Yang Construction's ability to continue as a going concern. If we consider that material uncertainty exists in these matters or conditions, we are required to remind the users of the Individual Financial Statements to pay attention to relevant disclosure in the statements in their audit report, or revise the audit opinions when such disclosure is inappropriate. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of the auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause Kuo Yang Construction to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluated the overall expression, structure and content of the Individual Financial Statements (including related notes) and if these statements present fairly the related transactions and events.
-
Obtained sufficient and appropriate proof for audit on the finances of the individual entities in Kuo Yang Construction to state our opinion on the Individual Financial Statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the individual audit. We remain solely responsible for the audit opinions of the Individual Financial Statements.
The CPAs' communications with the governance units include the planned scope and period of the audit and material finding in the audit (including significant defects identified in the internal control during auditing procedures).
We provided governance units with a statement assuring the personnel of our accounting firm who are subject to independent regulations had acted according to the ROC CPA Code of Professional Ethics to remain neutral and communicated with them about the all relations and other matters (including related preventive measures) that could affect the independence of the CPA.
-35-
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, the CPA determines matters that were of most significance in the audit of the 2022 Individual Financial Statements of Kuo Yang Construction for the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
