One. Letter to Shareholders

Ladies and gentlemen:

2022 is a year of changes and challenges. The semiconductor industry saw continuous economic growth in the first half of the year but came to a halt unexpectedly in the second half of the year. Despite the global economic changes and political turmoil, the Company continued to perform favorably in terms of operating income and profits, pushing the company again toward a new milestone.

Business Plan Implementation Results

The consolidated operating revenue was NT$36.782 billion last year, up by 8.95%. Gross profit margin was 35.5%, an increase of 4.8% compared with previous year. Earnings per share (EPS) was NT$5.59, also up by NT$1.36 from previous year. The Company delivered favorable business performance in general.

A review of last year's performance up until Q3, customers have adjusted their inventories, which reflected the significant impact that the general political and economic environment has on demand. The establishment of economic recession resulted in low visibility, exposing the semiconductor industry to severe challenges. With the concerted efforts of our employees, the Company was able to further increase its operating revenue for the year, thanks to contributions in terms of automotive applications, industrial applications, servers, data center, network communication products, and increased production outsourcing by foreign customers. Our gross profit market increased considerably, which is attributable to increase in average unit price and improved cost management. Net income before tax also increased significantly owing to our adequate control of management and sales expenses. Over the years, the Company observed that recruiting talents is not easy. We have therefore continuously invested in resources to automate factory operations, adopt smart manufacturing practices, streamline processes, improve production efficiency, and reduce our reliance on labor work. Our investments have gradually come to fruition. The Company also continued making changes and improvements in the areas of production flexibility, technical know-how, quality standard, delivery speed, customer service satisfaction, information management, employee cultural literacy, ESG performance, and operational systems to unleash our powerful resilience in adapting to the fast-changing environment.

Financial income and profit analysis

With respect to financial and profit status in 2022, the Company saw a sound financial structure, with debt to total assets ratio of 50.31% down slightly by 1.4% from previous year, and long-term capital to fixed assets ratio of 133.53%, up 5.4% compared

-1-

with last year. Current ratio and quick ratio increased by 48.92% and 47.22% from previous year, reaching 218.06% and 201.13%, respectively, which suggests favorable short-term liquidity. In terms of profitability, the Company’s return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), net profit margin, and earnings per share were 10.13%, 19.44%, 18.98%, and NT$5.59, respectively, which increased by 1.88%, 3.14%, 3.48%, and NT$1.36 compared with previous year, demonstrating record-high performance.

R&D status

The Company’s R&D center is not only committed to helping customers solve technical problems in product testing but also spares no effort in following a R&D blueprint to develop and improve the functions and performance of testing equipment and key components. We constantly update the specifications of our testing machines to meet customer needs and requirements for high-tech product development, while also focusing on ensuring the conversion compatibility of testing equipment adapters and testing platforms. With respect to testing software, we respond to the increased complexity of testing equipment and customer products by devoting to the development of testing software and adoption of artificial intelligence to improve production efficiency and user convenience. In terms of testing system integration, we endeavor to improve the scalability and functional performance of self-developed testing machines and burn-in ovens, both of which are available in abundance (1800+ machines) at KYEC and its subsidiaries. In the areas of self-developed equipment applications, our testing platform encompasses a broad category of products, including System on Chip (SoC), image sensor chip, driver chip, microelectromechanical chip, memory chip, and biochip, etc. We stay ahead of technological advancements by developing new testing technologies such as high-frequency, high-power, high-order packaging and heterogeneous packaging technologies to maintain our unique competitive edge in the field of IC testing.

Current business plan overview

We plan to develop our business by achieving breakthrough in performance growth targets, accurately deploying new investments, and promoting our self-developed machine business. Specifically, we strive to improve customer services by taking the lead in customer satisfaction evaluations, preventing significant quality costs, taking response measures and performing monitoring; improve production and manufacturing processes by reducing ineffective operations, enhancing production efficiency, expanding the scope of smart manufacturing and automation, and refining our professional competency and technical know-how; enforce cost control by focusing on the costs of materials and accessories and adopting mechanisms that ensure reasonable use of materials and strengthened inventory management; engage in R&D innovation with a focus on

-2-

developing core technologies, expanding the applications of key equipment and components, and continuing to ensure the quality of our intellectual properties and patents; and enhance human resources by retaining key talents, supporting management associates who show potential, and cultivating key technical competencies.

Future development strategy

The environment of the semiconductor industry has changed in recent years, resulting in the concentration of high-end semiconductor manufacturing in Taiwan. The Company’s future development strategy will be focused on two aspects. The first focus is on customer service, where we aim to strengthen the core value of the manufacturing supply chain, improve the operational efficiency and performance of systems used in the lengthy manufacturing process, support customers' product launch, and grow together with customers as their trusted partner. The second focus is on leveraging the Company’s unique competitive advantages in the research and development of semiconductor testing to deepen customer adhesion toward our services.

We will also continue to expand the business of our fabless semiconductor design company in Europe, the United States, and Japan, cultivate potential customers, and increase the proportion of IDM outsourcing orders to strengthen and stabilize our profitability. Given the technological conflict between China and the United States and the fragmentation of the global semiconductor supply chain, the Company will, at all times, evaluate and adjust its supply chain plans in Taiwan and China to prepare for any possible changes in the environment.

The effect of external competition, the legal environment, and the overall business environment

According to Gartner, a research and consulting firm, worldwide semiconductor revenue increased 1.1% in 2022 to a total of $602 billion, and is projected to decrease 6.5% in 2023 to US$563 billion. The World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS) expected the worldwide semiconductor market to reach 4.4% growth or US$580 billion in 2022, followed by a decline of 4% in 2023 to US$557 billion. Destocking of both memory and logic products remains prevalent in the first half of this year, while a new product inventory cycle will be established in the second half of the year. Most semiconductor operators were generally conservative about the annual growth of the worldwide semiconductor industry due to global overall economic and political uncertainties.

The IMF’s global growth forecast for 2022 was at 3.2% while its projection for 2023 was lowered to 2.7%. The World Bank predicted that global GDP will grow by 2.9% in 2022 and slashed its estimates to 1.7% for 2023. This year’s global economic

-3-

growth is extremely concerning due to uncertainties from a mixture of factors such as inflation, interest rate, exchange rate, unemployment rate, consumer spending power, U.S. dollar liquidity, U.S. debt ceiling, and complex geopolitical issues.

In terms of external competition, the node of worldwide semiconductor IC design and manufacturing has reached the limitations of Moore's Law, and advanced manufacturing and packaging technologies have been mass-produced for use by major international design companies. Taiwan dominates the outsourcing of semiconductor manufacturing, and much of that dominance comes down to only a handful of companies. KYEC has become the second largest manufacturer in the world in the field of semiconductor IC testing, making significant strides to stay ahead of its competitors. Taiwan accounts for 62% and 61.5% of the global wafer manufacturing marker and packaging and testing industry, both ranking No. 1 in the world. In the worldwide semiconductor manufacturing supply chain, Taiwan holds 97% of the share of packaging and testing capacity in the Asian market. The semiconductor industry has an extremely extensive and complex ecosystem consisting of tens of thousands of upstream and downstream suppliers that specialize in consumer demand, IC design, manufacturing, system combination, hardware sales, and product applications for different industrial sectors, which render cluster formation, migration, and replication difficult. Semiconductor OEMs in Taiwan have held strong advantages in terms of technology, cost, experience, talent, and efficiency. The formation of a semiconductor supply chain in China and the establishment of semiconductor fabrication plants in the United States, Japan, and Europe are undoubtedly a competition for Taiwanese manufacturers.

In terms of laws and the general business environment, the United States has in recent years clamped down on China's technology and semiconductor development by enforcing more stringent laws. China's semiconductor industry will become an integrated entity confined to the field of mature manufacturing products. In the United States, crack down on China and championing deglobalization will affect the restructuring of certain industry chains in various countries. Although there are inquiries in the semiconductor sector, feasibility consideration remains difficult.

Against the backdrop of rapid global inflation, U.S. interest hikes, and tightened monetary policy in the previous year, the ripples of the economic shock have caused shrinking demand, GDP decline, and uncertain economic outlook. Governments worldwide will have their own challenges to tackle in the future. This year, regardless of political interferences, the world remains situated in a highly uncertain environment characterized by high inflation, high unemployment rate, high interest rate, and low economic growth.

Looking forward to 2023, unfavorable factors are improving; for instance,

-4-

pandemic restrictions have been lifted, the economy is recovering slowly, the alleviation of supply chain disruption has lifted tensions around semiconductor manufacturing, inflation and sharp interest hikes have eased; the resumption of the semiconductor business cycle is anticipated in the second half of the year following a year of supply–demand adjustments to address the destocking problem. Asian countries with high population density such as China and India may see faster growth opportunities.

In light of science and technology advances, humans are working more efficiently in pursuit of more convenient and comfortable lifestyles; therefore, more functions and new applications for technological products and services will be developed. The rapid development of advanced semiconductor manufacturing processes and high-end advanced packaging technologies will make people’s dream come true through 5G, AI, IoT, HPC, Metaverse scenarios, and other everyday solutions. Because of the increasing complexity of the core SoC for advanced processes, the upgrading of peripheral mature process chip is promoted so as to increase the silicon content of end products. Base stations and network communication products have emerged as needed to keep pace with transmission bandwidth and speed in communication. Smart cars, smart homes, smart cities, smart health care, smart manufacturing, smart robots, smart stores, which are vigorously developed concepts, will create infinite possibilities and bright prospects for the development of worldwide semiconductor industry.

Feeling optimistic about future business opportunities, the Company will continue to invest in talent development and equipment operations, serve customers, and work closely with suppliers in order to prosper together and deliver favorable performance that will increase shareholders’ equity. Finally, I would like to thank our shareholders for their long-term support, and I look forward to maintaining a longstanding relationship with all shareholders to create a more promising outlook.

explanation shall be given of the reason, reasonableness, necessity thereof, and the measures (such as adding independent directors, and more than half of the directors not serving as concurrent employees or
managers of another company) adopted in response thereto:
In order to enhance operating efficiency and decision execution, the Company’s chairman also serves as the CEO. In addition, the chairman also closely communicates with the Company’s directors on
business operations, and formulates policies to implement corporate governance. In the future, depending on the development situations, the Company also plans on eliminating the chairman of the board of
directors from serving as the CEO or adding independent directors to enhance the functions of the board of directors and strengthen supervision. Currently, the Company has also set up the following specific
measures:
1. The current three independent directors are specialized in fields such as finance and the semiconductor industry in order to achieve effective supervision.
2. Each director is encouraged to take part in professional courses of external organizations such as the Securities and Futures Institute on an annual basis, in the aim of improving the operational efficiency
of the board of directors.
3. Independent directors can fully discuss and make suggestions for the board of directors in each functional committee in order to implement corporate governance.
4. More than half of the directors did not serve as concurrent employees or managers of another company.

For the remuneration of the Company’s directions (including independent directors), subject to the profit sought for the current year, the Company shall allocate no more than 1% of the profit as the remuneration to directors according to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. However,

-34-

if the Company has cumulative losses, an amount sufficient to make up losses shall be retained. The Company may, by a resolution adopted by a majority vote at a meeting of board of directors attended by two-thirds of the total number of directors, have the profit distributable as directors’ compensation, and in addition thereto a report of such distribution shall be submitted to the shareholders’ meeting. According to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the remunerations to all directors (including independent directors) shall be commensurate with their level of participation and value of contribution to the operation of the Company with reference to industry standard, and shall be determined by the board of directors under authorization. Accordance with the regulations of the Company’s Charter for the Remuneration Committee, the remuneration to directors (including independent directors) shall require the approval of one-half or more of all Remuneration Committee members, and furthermore shall be submitted for a resolution by the board of directors.

The remuneration to the Company’s managerial personnel shall be handled in accordance with the Company Act and the Company’s Charter for the Remuneration Committee, as required by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. Besides referring to the overall business performance of the Company, the position of all managerial personnel, the contribution to the Company’s operation, individual performance, and reference to payment in industry standard, the remuneration committee reviews and evaluates the overall remuneration rationality and then submits to the board of directors for resolution. The committee also considers the rationality between the relation of individual performance, the Company’s business performance and future risk.

policies suitable for the
Company’s industrial
characteristics?
V All factories and mainland China subsidiaries
have
established
an
environmental
management system in accordance with ISO
14001 and continued to undergo third-party
verification. Inventory of GHGs is conducted

(II) Is the company committed
to enhancing the utilization
efficiency of energy and
use renewable materials
that are with low impact on
the environmental?
V Every year, the Company follows the ISO
50001 management system standards to
identify significant energy use and equipment
with improved energy performance. We also
adopt energy-saving solutions, such as
replacing in-plant equipment that uses a
significant amount of energy. In addition to
improving existing facilities, we opted to
purchase energy-efficient products, such as
high-efficiency
or
thermal
recycling
machines, high-efficiency rotational motors,
and energy-saving products. In 2021, the
total electricity consumption of our plants
and
mainland
China
subsidiaries
was
756,304MWh,
up
59,448MWh
from
696,856MWh in 2020, representing an
increase of 8.5%. Such increase in power
consumption was due to plant expansion. For
the sake of corporate growth and sustainable
development, the Company continues to
adopt power/energy-saving solutions across
our plants to increase energy efficiency and
reduce the environmental impact of business
growth. Our electricity consumption intensity
is decreasing annually, to 6.9% compared
with
that
in
2020.
As
for
green
manufacturing,
we
reduce
unnecessary
resource
waste
and
seek
technology
development on waste reduction and resue.
We will work together with our upstream and
downstream partners of the value chain to
recycle and reuse packaging materials,
maximizing the benefits of a circular
economy. We strive for creating circular
value through recycling of process materials
and waste reduction.

accounting for 1.5%, 84%, and 14.6%,
respectively. The main source of emissions
was use of purchased electricity. In terms of
proportion, the Company’s GHG emissions
were due to purchased electricity. Total
emissions in 2021 increased by 29,169
tCO2e or 6.4% compared to 2020. However,
the emission intensity in 2021 was 1,436.26
tCO2e/NT$100 million revenue, a decrease
of 8.73% from 1,573.63 tCO2e/NT$100

inventory and reduction of Categories 1 and
2 GHGs within the boundaries of the
organization every year, our factories in
Taiwan have incorporated inventory data for
Categories 3-6 as of 2021, which have been
verified by a third party, and are expanding
the scope of inventory every year. It is our
longstanding effort to focus on water-saving
issues. In terms of water-saving plans, the
design of water-saving process was set as the
standard and the use of every drop of water is
optimized through wastewater recovery and
reuse. Bydoingthis,we are able to reduce

-74-

tap water consumption. Additionally, each department has also established a water-saving promotion team responsible for formulating an annual plan and reviewing the use of change in water consumption. We ensure the performance of the facilities in our plants on a regular basis and replace water-consuming facilities to avoid waste. Water consumption in the past 2 years: (all plants and subsidiaries) (Unit: million liters) Year 2020 2021 Total water 3,361.272 3,753.632 consumption Water 1,790.237 1,820.439 consumption In 2021, the total water consumption of the Company’s factories and mainland China subsidiaries was 3,753.632 million liters. Approximately 2,339.585 million liters of water used were sourced from raw water supply, accounting for 62.3% of the total water consumption. The amount of water recycled from process wastewater or water treatment system was 1,490.979 million liters, accounting for 37.6% of the total water consumption. We will continue to implement recycling and reuse projects including the recycling or recovery of UF and RO concentrated water and rainwater/condensate, to recycle water for reuse.

-75-

As we continue to carry out recycling and reuse of process and water systems, through promoting a variety of water-saving projects, our Chu-Nan Plant and subsidiary saved a total of 883.01 million liters of water and reduced carbon emissions by 488.3 tons in 2021. In 2022, we continued planning and implemented water conservation projects, setting water consumption reduction targets for for Chu-Nan Factory and subsidiary, which are our main consumers of water. We will improve our pure water system and evaluate the addition of recycling systems. Our Chu-Nan Factory is expected to invest NT$23 million in RO recycling and ROR recycling and reuse for a recycling period of approximately 2.5 years, while subsidiaries in China (King Long and Zhen Kun) will continuously improve pure water processes to save water and reduce waste. With our dedication to environmental protection, we have established waste reduction plans. Each quarter, we carry out a performance review and internal and external audits. In 2020, all plants and subsidiaries of China passed the ISO 14001 environmental management system certification. The Company is mainly involved in semiconductor testing, packaging, and grinding/dicing processes. All client-commissioned products (wafer/IC) are delivered to clients. We do not have our own products. The wastes we generate are mostly discarded packaging materials. The Company does not use toxic substances, so our testing processes do not contribute to air pollution problems. The organic gasses of COG cutting, grinding and alcohol wiping of the subsidiary of China are treated by photocatalysis and discharged via a 15-meter-high exhaust pipe; hence, there is only wastewater treatment and waste generation. Waste generated is treated by outsourced qualified vendors; no waste is being transported outside of Taiwan. Each year, we take into account the Company’s environmental policy and establish various waste and energy reduction objectives and periodically and track waste and energy reduction within the plant. Furthermore, we have also built an auditing system on waste treatment vendors and perform audits on a consistent basis without early warning, ensuring the legality of our outsourced treatment vendors.

(II) Industry Overview

1. Industry status and development

According to the questionnaire results of TSIA, ITRI’s IEK statistics showed that the output value of Taiwan’s entire IC industry amounted to NT$1197.1 billion (US$40.2B) in Q4 of 2022 (22Q4) (including IC design, IC manufacturing, IC package and IC testing), representing a decline of 3.7% from the previous quarter (22Q3) and a growth of 8.2% from the same period (21Q4) in 2021. The output value of the IC design industry amounted to NT$260 billion (US$8.7B), down 12.5% from the previous quarter (22Q3) and up 18.1% from the same period in 2021 (21Q4); the output value of the IC manufacturing industry amounted to NT$769.9 billion (US$25.8B), up 0.8% from the previous quarter (22Q3) and up 25.5% from the same period in 2021 (21Q4), including that of the foundry amounting to NT$723.4 billion (US$24.3B), up 1.5% from the previous quarter (22Q3) and 33.9% from the same period in 2021 (21Q4); the memory and other products amounted to NT$46.5 billion (US$1.6B), down 8.8% from the previous quarter (22Q3) and 36.6% from the same period in 2021 (21Q4); the output value of the IC package industry amounted to NT$114 billion (US$3.8B), down 10.2% from the previous quarter (22Q3) and 5.0% from the same period in 2021 (21Q4); the output value of the IC test industry amounted to NT$53.2 billion (US$1.8B), down 4.1% from the previous quarter (22Q3) and 3.3% from the same period in 2021(21Q4). The exchange rate of NTD against USD was 1:29.8 The test industry is identified as a capital-intensive advanced high-tech industry with considerable barriers to entry. Recently, the constant evolution of IC process and increasingly complicated functions have made the IC test become more and more important. Notwithstanding, due to the increasing capital expenditure, more and more leading IDMs and foundries have given up expansion of the back-end production capacity and

-128-

contracted the IC test services to others. As a result, the professional test industry was booming.

Looking ahead to 2023, continued destocking in the first half of the year and sluggish demand for end products have caused the IC packaging and testing industry to experience a quarterly decline. However, as the industry approaches peak season while U.S. Federal Reserve is projected to slows down its interest rate hike in the second half of the year, demand for end products may gradually pick up, slowly putting the IC packaging and testing industry back on track. Due to interest rate hikes by major central banks around the world in 2023, the suppressed demand for end products affected demand for semiconductors. The output value of Taiwan’s packaging and testing industry is projected to be NT$663 billion in 2023, down 3.2% from 2022.

  1. Association between upstream, midstream, and downstream industry participants
industry participants
Upstream industry IC design companies, foundries, and IDMs
Midstream industry Testing equipment factories, package and test
factories, and parts manufacturers
Downstream industry IC resellers, IC design companies, and integrated
device manufacturers
  1. Development trends and degree of competition for our products

The global semiconductor manufacturers moved their production bases to the territories of Asia in order to cut production costs. The domestic IC industry owns a complete and dynamic vertical division-of-labor system and, therefore, is recognized for its technology, quality and delivery period. Given the increasing proportion of foundries carried out by IDMs and IC design companies in Taiwan and the multiple domestic and foreign wafer fabs that are going to be put into production, there should be few demands for commissioning domestic manufacturers to engage in the back-end test service, in consideration of the cost, delivery period and maintenance of core competitiveness.

According to an MIC report, the global top ten suppliers in the packaging and testing industry by scale of operating revenue in 2022 were ASE, Amkor, Changjiang Electronics Technology Co. Ltd., Powertech Technology Inc., Tongfu Microelectronics Co., Ltd., Huatian Technology Co., Ltd., King Yuan Electronics Co., Ltd.

-129-

(KYEC), ChipMOS Technologies Inc., Chipbond Technology Corporation, and SFA.

The Company owns complete testing machines, which afford to provide such comprehensive IC test services as logic IC, mixed signal IC, memory IC, wireless network, driver IC and integrated IC, and IC burn-in test. Meanwhile, the Company also provides the integrated services including wafer grinding and dicing and reeling & packaging to meet the customers’ need for one-stop purchase and to win the competitive niche for the Company’s customers.

Future supply and demand in this market and growth outlook Given IDMs’ contracting their back-end needs to others successively and the increasing proportion of foundries carried out by domestic/foreign IC design companies in Taiwan, the demand for package and test services has been increasing day by day. Notwithstanding, in consideration of the cost, delivery period and quality, their production bases have been moved to the territories of Asia. The domestic IC industry owns a complete and dynamic vertical division-of-labor system and, therefore, is recognized for its technology, quality and delivery period. Given this, it is expected to catch this amazing business opportunity.

According to the latest research reports from domestic/foreign leading institutions, as boosted by Macroeconomy, wireless communication solutions and consumable products, the need for outsourcing production by the global semiconductor market is expected to increase and thereby drive the development of the IC test service industry.

  1. Competitive niche and positive factors for future development (1) Capital and technique intensive:

Given the machine and equipment required by the test getting more and more expensive and at large quantity, the rapid upgrading of product hierarchy, shortage of domestic R&D talents and management teams with complete experience, and difficulty in establishing long-term cooperation relationship trusted by customers, it is not easy for potential competitors to enter the industry. The Company has been dedicated to establishing close cooperation relationship with domestic IC manufacturers and IC design companies actively permanently, and won the recognition and reliance from customers in its quality and delivery period.

  • (2) Clear division-of-labor and outsourcing trend in the semiconductor industry

Under the development trend for professional division of labor in the semiconductor industry, IDMs have gradually increased the proportion of production commissioned to professional OEMs in consideration of the operating cost and effect and financial risks. The domestic IC industry has brought the huge business opportunity to the IC downstream test service suppliers, when the foundry suppliers were expanding their international domains and IC design service suppliers

-133-

were working hard to cooperate with the international leading manufacturers. The Company owns complete testing machines, which afford providing such comprehensive IC test services as logic IC, mixed signal IC, memory IC, sensor, wireless network and integrated IC, and IC burn-in test. Meanwhile, the Company also provides the integrated services including wafer grinding and dicing and reeling & packaging to meet the customers’ need for one-stop purchase and to win the competitive niche for the Company’s customers.

(3) Economies of business scale and range of product line

The entire IC industry’s development emphasizes the upstream IC design and IC manufacturing capabilities. Meanwhile, the on-site support by the IC back-end package and test services is also an important factor critical to enhancement of the IC industry’s competitive strength. The depreciation expenses accounted for a high proportion of the cost in the package and test industry. The profitability and risk of loss may be decided relying on the product line portfolio and economies of scale. This may be considered as a competitive strength. The Company has engaged in the test industry for many years and, therefore, secured its solid position in the industry.

  1. Negative factors for the prospects of our development and our

corresponding strategy

  • (1) Merger of competitors or alliance of upstream and downstream suppliers:

Successive expansion of domestic upstream IC manufacturers derived the massive demand for the back-end IC production process. Meanwhile, given the increasing economic recovery in the semiconductor industry and increasing proportion of outsourcing by IDMs, a lot of new IC test service providers allied with each other and, therefore, the competition will become more and more intensive in the market.

Corresponding Strategy:

  • A. Provide integrated services which enable customers to receive the complete service for test, Burn-in and product package by placing one order, thereby cutting the entire production period.

  • B. Establish long-term cooperative relationship with customers: The

  • Company works hard to establish the long-term cooperative relationship with customers with its strength in quality, speed and cost, so that its production capacity could be utilized perfectly and

-134-

stably.

  • C. Strengthen technical capability: Make use of the Company’s research team to improve the production process and research and develop new technology and products to increase the added value of products.

  • (2) Strong capital demand:

Given the business expansion and expensive price of the new generation test equipment, IC test service providers have a strong demand for working capital and funds for investment in machinery and equipment.

Corresponding Strategy: The Company raised consideration working capital through the Company’s net cash inflow from operating activities to help the Company’s development.

  • (3) More capital investment, more business risk

The annual capital expenditure of the package and test industry frequently ranges between NT$1 billion and NT$10 billion. The annual depreciation expenses are tremendous in this industry. Given the fluctuation of the economy in the semiconductor industry, how to keep the Company seeking profit and avoiding loss is a critical business challenge.

Corresponding Strategy: Be cautious in investing in machinery and equipment, purchase mainstream test equipment, invest in customers with high growth ability, and strengthen the integration of effects of test platforms to disperse the proportion of single customer.

Reasons for changes in financial ratios in past two years (Analysis is not required if the magnitude of increase
or decrease is less than 20%)
1. Current ratio and quick ratio increased compared with previous year because of increase in profit, which
caused cash and cash equivalents to increase.
2. ROA, ratio of pre-tax income to share capital, net profit margin, and earnings per share increased compared
with previous year because of a further increase in operating revenue for the current period due to
contributions in terms of automotive applications, industrial applications, servers, data center, network
communication products, and increased production outsourcing by foreign customers. Net profit before tax
and net profit of the term increased mainly because gross profit margin increased considerably and
management expenses were adequately controlled, both of which were attributable to increase in average
unit price and improved cost management.
3. Cash flow ratio and cash reinvestment ratio increased compared with previous year mainly because of
increasein netcash inflowsfromoperatingactivitiesin the currentperiod.

Note: Financial figures for 2018–2022 were based on the financial statements audited and certified by the CPA.

The causes resulting in changes in financial rates in the most recent two (2) years by more than 20%: (Analysis is not required if the magnitude of increase or decrease is less than 20%)

  1. Current ratio and quick ratio increased compared with previous year because of increase in profit, which caused cash and cash equivalents to increase.

  2. Interest protection multiples, ROA, ratio of pre-tax income to share capital, net profit margin, and earnings per share increased compared with previous year because of a further increase in operating revenue for the current period due to contributions in terms of automotive applications, industrial applications, servers, data center, network communication products, and increased production outsourcing by foreign customers. Net profit before tax and net profit of the term increased mainly because gross profit margin increased considerably and management expenses were adequately controlled, both of which were attributable to increase in average unit price and improved cost management.

  3. Increase in payables turnover and average inventory turnover days compared with previous year: Mainly because customers have been adjusting their inventory since the third quarter, resulting in a decrease in purchases and end-of-period payables in the second half of the year.

  4. Cash flow ratio and cash reinvestment ratio increased compared with previous year mainly because of increase in net cash inflows from operating activities in the current period.

Note: Financial figures for 2018–2022 were based on the financial statements audited and certified by the CPA.

The calculation formula for said ratios is identified as follows:

  1. Financial structure

  2. (1) Ratio of liabilities to assets = total liabilities/total assets.

  3. (2) Ratio of long-term capital to property, plant and equipment = (Total equity + Long-term loan) / net of property, plant and equipment.

  4. Solvency

  5. (1) Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities.

  6. (2) Quick ratio = (current assets - inventory - prepayments) / current liabilities.

  7. (3) Times interest earned ratio = net profit before interest and tax / interest expenses for the current period.

  8. Operational ability

  9. (1) Receivables (including accounts receivable and notes receivable resulting from operation) turnover = net sales / balance (gross) of average accounts receivable (including accounts receivable and notes receivable resulting from operation).

  10. (2) Average cash collection days = 365 / receivables turnover.

  11. (3) Inventory turnover = sale cost / average inventory.

  12. (4) Payables (including accounts payable and notes payable resulting from operation) turnover = sale cost / balance (gross) of average accounts payable (including accounts payable and notes payable resulting from operation).

  13. (5) Average inventory turnover days = 365 / inventory turnover.

  14. (6) Property, plant and equipment turnover = net sales / average net property, plant and equipment balance.

  15. (7) Total assets turnover = net sales / average total assets.

-157-

  • (3) Cash reinvestment ratio = (net cash flow from operating activities - cash dividends) / (gross property, plant and equipment + long-term investments + intangible assets + working capital). (Note 2)

  • Leverage:

  • (1) Operating leverage = (net operating revenues - variable operating costs and expenses) / operating profit (Note 3).

  • (2) Financial leverage = operating profit / (operating profit - interest expenses).

  • Note 1: Calculation of earnings per share has taken the following factors into account:

  • The weighted average quantity of outstanding common stock shall be used as the standard, not the quantity of outstanding shares at the end of the year.

  • In case of raising capital through issuing new shares or transactions of treasury stocks, calculate also the weighted average quantity of outstanding shares in the period of circulation.

  • In case of capitalization of retained earnings or capitalization of capital surplus into new shares, adjustment shall be made in retrospect to the size of capitalization for each instance when calculating the earnings per shares annually or semi-annually. The time of issuance can be neglected.

  • If the preferred shares are non-convertible accumulated preferred shares, the dividend declared in the current period (whether paid or unpaid) shall be deducted from corporate earnings or as added to earnings after taxation. If the accumulated preferred shares are not accumulative in nature, dividend for preferred shares shall be deducted from corporate earnings, if any. In case of loss, no adjustment shall be made.

  • Note 2: Cash flow analyses have taken the following factors into account:

  • Net cash flow from operating activities refers to net cash inflow from operating activities as stated in the Statement of Cash Flow.

  • Capital expenditure refers to the amount of annual cash outflow spent on capital investments.

  • The increase in inventory is included only when the balance at the end is more than that at the beginning. If the inventory decreases at the end of the year, it shall be calculated as “zero.”

  • Cash Dividends include the dividends in cash paid to holders of common stock and preferred shares.

  • Gross property, plant and equipment refers to the amount before deducting accumulated depreciation.

  • Note 3: The Company, as a securities issuer, is required to classify operating costs and expenses between fixed and variable portions; any estimate or subjective judgment used in the classification needs to be reasonable and consistent.

more than NT$10 million, and the effect thereof are analyzed and stated as follows:
Increase in gross profit, net profit, pre-tax income, income tax expense, and net income for the period: Mainly
due to further increase in operating revenue for the period, attributable to contributions in terms of automotive
applications, industrial applications, servers, data center, network communication products, and increased
production outsourcing by foreign customers. In addition, net profit before tax increased mainly because gross
profit margin increased considerably and management expenses were adequately controlled, both of which
were attributable to increase in average unit price and improved cost management.
Decrease in non-operating income and expenditure: Mainly due to increase in foreign exchange loss and loan
interest caused by U.S. interest hikes, and tightened monetary policy.
Decrease in other comprehensive income (loss) for the current period: Mainly due to loss from changes in the
fair value of Yann Yuan Investment Co., Ltd. and Xie Yong Investment Co., Ltd.

  • A. IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures” — Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Ventures

The amendments address the inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”, in dealing with the loss of control of a subsidiary that is contributed to an associate or a joint venture. IAS 28 restricts gains and losses arising from contributions of non-monetary assets to an associate or a joint venture to the extent of the interest attributable to the other equity holders in the associate or joint venture. IFRS 10 requires full profit or loss recognition on the loss of control of a subsidiary. IAS 28 was amended so that the gain or loss resulting from the sale or contribution of assets that constitute a business as defined in IFRS 3 between an investor and its associate or joint venture is recognized in full.

IFRS 10 was also amended so that the gain or loss resulting from the sale or contribution of a subsidiary that does not constitute a business as defined in IFRS 3 between an investor and its associate or joint venture is recognized only to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interests in the associate or joint venture.

B. IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts”

IFRS 17 provides a comprehensive model for insurance contracts, covering all relevant accounting aspects (including recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements). The core of IFRS 17 is the General (building block) Model, under this model, on initial recognition, an entity shall measure a group of insurance contracts at the total of the fulfilment cash flows and the contractual service margin. The carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts at the end of each reporting period shall be the sum of the liability for remaining coverage and the liability for incurred claims.

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Other than the General Model, the standard also provides a specific adaptation for contracts with direct participation features (the Variable Fee Approach) and a simplified approach (Premium Allocation Approach) mainly for short-duration contracts.

IFRS 17 was issued in May 2017 and it was amended in 2020 and 2021. The amendments include deferral of the date of initial application of IFRS 17 by two years to annual beginning on or after January 1, 2023 (from the original effective date of January 1, 2021); provide additional transition reliefs; simplify some requirements to reduce the costs of applying IFRS 17 and revise some requirements to make the results easier to explain. IFRS 17 replaces an interim Standard – IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts – from annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023.

  • C. Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current Amendments to IAS 1

These are the amendments to paragraphs 69-76 of IAS 1 Presentation of Financial statements and the amended paragraphs related to the classification of liabilities as current or non-current.

  • D. Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback Amendments to IFRS 16

The amendments add seller-lessees additional requirements for the sale and leaseback transactions in IFRS 16, thereby supporting the consistent application of the standard.

  • E. Non-current Liabilities with Covenants Amendments to IAS 1

The amendments improved the information companies provide about long-term debt with covenants. The amendments specify that covenants to be complied within twelve months after the reporting period do not affect the classification of debt as current or non-current at the end of the reporting period.

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Statement of Compliance

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers (“the Regulations”) and TIFRS as endorsed by FSC.

Basis of Preparation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. The accompanying consolidated financial statements are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan Dollars (“NT$”) unless otherwise stated.

Basis of Consolidation

Preparation principle of consolidated financial statement

Control is achieved when the Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Company controls an investee if and only if the Company has:

  • a. power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);

  • b. exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

  • c. the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

When the Company has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

  • a. the contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee;

  • b. rights arising from other contractual arrangements;

  • c. the Company’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

The Company re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the acquisition date, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date the Company ceases to control the subsidiary. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period with the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. All intra-group balances, income and expenses, unrealized gains and losses and dividends resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full.

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a change of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.

Total comprehensive income of the subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

If the Company loses control of a subsidiary, it:

  • a. derecognizes the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary;

  • b. derecognizes the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest;

  • c. recognizes the fair value of the consideration received;

  • d. recognizes the fair value of any investment retained;

  • e. recognizes any surplus or deficit in profit or loss; and

  • f. reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognized in other comprehensive income to profit or loss.

Foreign currency transactions

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are presented in NT$, which is also the parent company’s functional currency. Each entity in the Company determines its functional currency upon its primary economic environment and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company’s entities at their respective functional currency rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. Nonmonetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

All exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items are taken to profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for the following:

  • A. exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings for an acquisition of a qualifying asset to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs are included in the borrowing costs that are eligible for capitalization.

  • B. foreign currency items within the scope of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” are accounted for based on the accounting policy for financial instruments.

  • C. exchange differences arising on a monetary item that forms part of a reporting entity’s net investment in a foreign operation is recognized initially in other comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on disposal of the net investment.

When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized in other comprehensive income, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income. When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized in profit or loss, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss.

Translation of financial statements in foreign currency

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into NT$ at the closing rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and their income and expenses are translated at an average rate for the period. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognized in other comprehensive income. On the disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences relating to that foreign operation, recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the separate component of equity, is reclassified from equity to profit or loss when the gain or loss on disposal is recognized. The following partial disposals are accounted for as disposals:

  • A. when the partial disposal involves the loss of control of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation; and

  • B. when the retained interest after the partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or a partial disposal of an interest in an associate that includes a foreign operation is a financial asset that includes a foreign operation.

-234-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

On the partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation that does not result in a loss of control, the proportionate share of the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income is re-attributed to non-controlling interests in that foreign operation. In partial disposal of an associate or jointly arrangement that includes a foreign operation that does not result in a loss of significant influence or joint control, only the proportionate share of the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss.

Any goodwill and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and expressed in its functional currency.

Current and non-current distinction

An asset is classified as current when:

  • A. the Company expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal operating cycle;

  • B. the Company holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • C. the Company expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • D. the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when:

  • A. the Company expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle;

  • B. the Company holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • C. the liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • D. the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term, highly liquid time deposits (including ones that have maturity within twelve months) or investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” are recognized initially at fair value plus or minus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

  • A. Financial instruments: Recognition and Measurement

The Company accounts for regular way purchase or sales of financial assets on the trade date.

The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss considering both factors below:

  • a. the Company’s business model for managing the financial assets and

  • b. the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met and presented as note receivables, trade receivables, financial assets measured at amortized cost and other receivables, etc., on balance sheet as at the reporting date:

  • a. the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and

  • b. the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

-236-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost (the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial recognition minus the principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of any difference between the initial amount and the maturity amount and adjusted for any loss allowance) and is not part of a hedging relationship. A gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss when the financial asset is derecognized, through the amortization process or in order to recognize the impairment gains or losses.

Interest revenue is calculated by using the effective interest method. This is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for:

  • a. purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Company applies the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset from initial recognition.

  • b. financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets but subsequently have become credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Company applies the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset in subsequent reporting periods.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the following conditions are met:

  • a. the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and

  • b. the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Recognition of gain or loss on a financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is described as below:

  • a. A gain or loss on a financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognized in other comprehensive income, except for impairment gains or losses and foreign exchange gains and losses, until the financial asset is derecognized or reclassified.

-237-

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

  • b. When the financial asset is derecognized the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment.

  • c. Interest revenue is calculated by using the effective interest method. This is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for:

  • (a) purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Company applies the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset from initial recognition.

  • (b) financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets but subsequently have become credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Company applies the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset in subsequent reporting periods.

Besides, for certain equity investments within the scope of IFRS 9 that is neither held for trading nor contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination to which IFRS 3 applies, the Company made an irrevocable election to present the changes of the fair value in other comprehensive income at initial recognition. Amounts presented in other comprehensive income shall not be subsequently transferred to profit or loss (when disposal of such equity instrument, its cumulated amount included in other components of equity is transferred directly to the retained earnings) and these investments should be presented as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income on the balance sheet. Dividends on such investments are recognized in profit or loss unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of investment.

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets are classified as measured at amortized cost or measured at fair value through other comprehensive income based on aforementioned criteria. All other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss and presented on the balance sheet as financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Such financial assets are measured at fair value, the gains or losses resulting from remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss which includes any dividend or interest received on such financial assets.

B. Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on debt instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets measured at amortized cost. The loss allowance on debt instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognized in other comprehensive income and does not reduce the carrying amount in the statement of financial position.

The Company measures expected credit losses of a financial instrument in a way that reflects:

  • a. an unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes;

  • b. the time value of money; and

  • c. reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

The loss allowance is measured as follows:

  • a. at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses: the credit risk on a financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition or the financial asset is determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date. In addition, the Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses in the previous reporting period, but determines at the current reporting date that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition is no longer met.

  • b. at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses: the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition or financial asset that is purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset.

  • c. for trade receivables or contract assets arising from transactions within the scope of IFRS 15, the Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

  • d. For lease receivables arising from transactions within the scope of IFRS 16, the Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

At each reporting date, the Company needs to assess whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition by comparing the risk of a default occurring at the reporting date and the risk of default occurring at initial recognition. Please refer to Note 12 for further details on credit risk.

  • C. Derecognition of financial assets

A financial asset is derecognized when:

  • a. the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired.

  • b. the Company has transferred the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset have been transferred.

  • c. the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration received or receivable including any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income, is recognized in profit or loss.

  • D. Financial liabilities and equity

Classification between liabilities or equity

The Company classifies the instrument issued as a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial liability, and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. The transaction costs of an equity transaction are accounted for as a deduction from equity to the extent they are incremental costs directly attributable to the equity transaction that otherwise would have been avoided.

Compound instruments

The Company evaluates the terms of the convertible bonds issued to determine whether it contains both a liability and an equity component. Furthermore, the Company assesses if the

-240-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

economic characteristics and risks of the put and call options contained in the convertible bonds are closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host contract before separating the equity element.

For the liability component excluding the derivatives, its fair value is determined based on the rate of interest applied at that time by the market to instruments of comparable credit status. The liability component is classified as a financial liability measured at amortized cost before the instrument is converted or settled.

For the embedded derivative that is not closely related to the host contract (for example, if the exercise price of the embedded call or put option is not approximately equal on each exercise date to the amortized cost of the host debt instrument), it is classified as a liability component and subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it qualifies for an equity component. The equity component is assigned the residual amount after deducting from the fair value of the instrument as a whole the amount separately determined for the liability component. Its carrying amount is not remeasured in the subsequent accounting periods. If the convertible bond issued does not have an equity component, it is accounted for as a hybrid instrument in accordance with the requirements under IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”.

Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the convertible bond based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are initially recognized.

On conversion of a convertible bond before maturity, the carrying amount of the liability component being the amortized cost at the date of conversion is transferred to equity.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities measured at amortized cost upon initial recognition.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss. Gains or losses

on the subsequent measurement of liabilities held for trading including interest paid are recognized in profit or loss.

A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:

  • a. it is acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing it in the near term;

  • b. on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

  • c. it is a derivative (except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a designated and effective hedging instrument).

If a contract contains one or more embedded derivatives, the entire hybrid (combined) contract may be designated as a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss; or a financial liability may be designated as at fair value through profit or loss when doing so results in more relevant information, because either:

  • a. it eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency; or

  • b. a group of financial liabilities or financial assets and financial liabilities is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the group is provided internally on that basis to the key management personnel.

Gains or losses on the subsequent measurement of liabilities at fair value through profit or loss including interest paid are recognized in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities at amortized cost

Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost include interest bearing loans and borrowings that are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate method after initial recognition. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the effective interest rate method amortization process.

Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or transaction costs.

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified (whether or not attributable to the financial difficulty of the debtor), such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts and the consideration paid, including any noncash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.

E. Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Derivative financial instruments

The Company uses derivative instruments to hedge its foreign currency risks and interest rate risks. A derivative is classified in the balance sheet as assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss except for derivatives that are designated effective hedging instruments which are classified as derivative financial assets or liabilities for hedging.

Derivative instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to profit or loss, except for the effective portion of hedges, which is recognized in either profit or loss or equity according to types of hedges used.

When the host contracts are either non-financial assets or liabilities, derivatives embedded in host contracts are accounted for as separate derivatives and recorded at fair value if their economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host contracts are not designated at fair value though profit or loss.

Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

  • a. in the principal market for the asset or liability, or

  • b. in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming market participants in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value item by item.

Costs incurred in bringing each inventory to its present location and condition are accounted for as follows:

Raw materials – Purchase cost on weighted average method

Finished goods and work in progress – Cost of direct materials and labor and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs.

-244-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Rendering of services is accounted in accordance with IFRS 15 and not within the scope of inventories.

Investments accounted for using the equity method

The Company’s investment in its associates is accounted for using the equity method other than those that meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale. An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence. A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture.

Under the equity method, the investment in the associate in a joint venture is carried in the balance sheet at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the Company’s share of net assets of the associate or joint venture. After the interest in the associate or joint venture is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Company and the associate or joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s related interest in the associate or joint venture.

When changes in the net assets of an associate or a joint venture occur and not those that are recognized in profit or loss or other comprehensive income and do not affect the Company’s percentage of ownership interests in the associate or joint venture, the Company recognizes such changes in equity based on its percentage of ownership interests. The resulting capital surplus recognized will be reclassified to profit or loss at the time of disposing the associate or joint venture on a pro rata basis.

When the associate or joint venture issues new shares, and the Company’s interest in an associate or a joint venture is reduced or increased as the Company fails to acquire shares newly issued in the associate or joint venture proportionately to its original ownership interest, the increase or decrease in the interest in the associate or joint venture is recognized in capital surplus and investments accounted for using the equity method. When the interest in the associate or joint venture is reduced, the cumulative amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income

-245-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

are reclassified to profit or loss or other appropriate items. The aforementioned capital surplus recognized is reclassified to profit or loss on a pro rata basis when the Company disposes the associate or joint venture.

The financial statements of the associate or joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Company.

The Company determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate or an investment in a joint venture is impaired in accordance with IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”. If this is the case, the Company calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate or joint venture and its carrying value and recognizes the amount in the ‘share of profit or loss of an associate’ in the statement of comprehensive income in accordance with IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”. In determining the value in use of the investment, the Company estimates:

  • A. its share of the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the associate or joint venture, including the cash flows from the operations of the associate and the proceeds on the ultimate disposal of the investment; or

  • B. the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from dividends to be received from the investment and from its ultimate disposal.

Because goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate or an investment in a joint venture is not separately recognized, it is not tested for impairment separately by applying the requirements for goodwill impairment testing in IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”.

Upon loss of significant influence over the associate or joint venture, the Company measures and recognizes any retaining investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate or joint venture upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retaining investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in profit or loss. Furthermore, if an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the entity continues to apply the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes the cost of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located and borrowing costs for construction in progress if the recognition criteria are met. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated separately. When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced in intervals, the Company recognizes such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives and depreciation. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognized in accordance with the derecognition provisions of IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment”. When a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic lives of the following assets:

Buildings and facilities 20�31 years
Plant equipment 5�16 years
Machinery and equipment 2�8 years
Transportation equipment 3�6 years
Office equipment 3�5 years
Right-of-use assets (Note) 4�58 years
Miscellaneous equipment 3�11 years
Leasehold improvements 10 years

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

The assets’ residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

Leases

The Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time, the Company assesses whether the contract, throughout the period of use, has both of the following:

  • (a) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset; and

  • (b) the right to direct the use of the identified asset.

For a contract that is, or contains, a lease, the Company accounts for each lease component within the contract as a lease separately from non-lease components of the contract. For a contract that contains a lease component and one or more additional lease or non-lease components, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of the nonlease components. The relative stand-alone price of lease and non-lease components shall be determined on the basis of the price the lessor, or a similar supplier, would charge the Company for that component, or a similar component, separately. If an observable stand-alone price is not readily available, the Company estimates the stand-alone price, maximizing the use of observable information.

  • A. The Company as a lessee

Except for leases that meet and elect short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Company recognizes right-of-use asset and lease liability for all leases which the Company is the lessee of those lease contracts.

At the commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate. At the commencement date, the lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following payments for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term that are not paid at the commencement date:

-248-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

  • (a) fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable;

  • (b) variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;

  • (c) amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;

  • (d) the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and

  • (e) payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.

After the commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability on an amortized cost basis, which increases the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability by using an effective interest method; and reduces the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

At the commencement date, the Company measures the right-of-use asset at cost. The cost of the right-of-use asset comprises:

  • (a) the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability;

  • (b) any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received;

  • (c) any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and

  • (d) an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.

For subsequent measurement of the right-of-use asset, the Company measures the right-of-use asset at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. That is, the Company measures the right-of-use asset applying a cost model.

If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company by the end of the lease term or if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Company will exercise a purchase option, the Company depreciates the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the Company depreciates the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

The Company applies IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets” to determine whether the right-of-use asset is impaired and to account for any impairment loss identified.

Except for those leases that the Company accounted for as short-term leases or leases of lowvalue assets, the Company presents right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the balance sheet and separately presents lease-related interest expense and depreciation charge in the statement of consolidated comprehensive income statement.

For short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Company elects to recognize the lease payments associated with those leases as an expense on either a straight-line basis over the lease term or another systematic basis.

B. The Company as a lessor

At inception of a contract, the Company classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. At the commencement date, the Company recognizes assets held under a finance lease in its balance sheet and presents them as a receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease.

For a contract that contains lease components and non-lease components, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract applying IFRS 15.

The Company recognizes lease payments from operating leases as rental income on either a straight-line basis or another systematic basis. Variable lease payments for operating leases that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as rental income when incurred.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalized development costs, are not capitalized and expenditure is reflected in profit or loss for the year in which the expenditure is incurred.

-250-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life is reviewed at least at the end of each financial year. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.

A. Research and development costs

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditures, on an individual project, are recognized as an intangible asset when the Company can demonstrate:

  • a. the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;

  • b. its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset;

  • c. how the asset will generate future economic benefits;

  • d. the availability of resources to complete the asset; and

  • e. the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development.

Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the cost model is applied requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually. Amortization of the asset begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortized over the period of expected future benefit.

B. Computer software

The cost of computer software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life (3~5 years).

- Impairment of non financial assets

The Company assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that an asset in the scope of IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets” may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s (“CGU”) fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Company estimates the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been an increase in the estimated service potential of an asset which in turn increases the recoverable amount. However, the reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

A cash generating unit, or groups of cash-generating units, to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually at the same time, irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment. If an impairment loss is to be recognized, it is first allocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash generating unit (group of units), then to the other assets of the unit (group of units) pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit (group of units). Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods for any reason.

An impairment loss of continuing operations or a reversal of such impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

Treasury shares

Acquisitions of the shares of the Company (treasury shares) are recognized at cost and deducted from equity. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration, if reissues, is recognized in capital surplus under equity.

When the retirement of treasury shares, capital surplus – share premiums and share capital are debited proportionately, gains on retirement of treasury shares should be recognized under existing capital surplus arising from similar types of treasury shares; losses on retirement of treasury shares should be offset against existing capital surplus form similar types of treasury shares. If there are insufficient capital reserves to be offset against, then such losses should be accounted for under retained earnings.

Revenue recognition

The Company’s revenue arising from contracts with customers are mainly rendering of processing services and rental of testing machinery. The accounting policies are explained as follows:

A. Rendering of services

The Company’s primary activity is to conduct testing and assembly services based on customer’s specification demand. According to the customer contract, the ownership of the work in process belongs to the customer. The customer controls the work in process when the Company provides services to create or enhance it. Accordingly, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied over time and the Company, based on the consideration stated in the customer contract (less estimated volume discount), recognizes service revenue over time. The Company estimates the volume discounts using the expected value method based on historical experiences. However, revenue is only recognized to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. During the period specified in the contract, refund liability is recognized for the expected volume discounts.

The credit period of the Company’s service revenue is from 30 to 120 days. For most of the contracts, when the Company transfers those processed assets to customers and has a right to

-253-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

an amount of consideration that is unconditional, these contracts are recognized as trade receivables. The Company usually collects the payments shortly after transferring those processed assets to customers; therefore, there is no significant financing component to the contract. For some of the contracts, the Company transfers those processed assets to customers but does not have a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, these contacts should be presented as contract assets. Besides, in accordance with IFRS 9, the Company measures the loss allowance for a contract asset at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses.

B. Revenue from rental of machinery

The Company provides rental of testing machineries based on customers’ demand. According to the contract, the Company provides tailored machineries to customers for testing purposes for a certain period of time. During the contract period, those machineries are for the contracted customers’ use only, and will not be mixed with other testing machineries. Meanwhile, during the contract period, those machineries are still under control of the Company, the customer does not have the right to control over or to direct the right of use of the rented machineries. Usually, the unit rental price is fixed and is stated in the contract. Accordingly, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied over time and the Company recognizes revenue from rental of the machinery by rental hours or testing volume multiplied by the fixed unit price, or over the rental period on a straight line basis.

The credit period of the Company’s service revenue is from 30 to 120 days. For most of the contracts, the Company recognizes trade receivables upon the completion of rental period. These trade receivables usually have short period and no significant financial component is arisen.

For some machinery rental contracts, prepayments are received from customers upon signing the contract, the Company then has the obligation to provide the services subsequently. Accordingly, these amounts are recognized as contract liabilities.

C. Sales of machinery

The Company manufactures and sells professional testing machinery. Those machineries must be tested for specifications according to the contract signed by both parties before being delivered to customers. The Company performs the specification test in accordance with the

-254-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

contract and issues a machinery inspection report to the customer. After the customer’s confirmation that the operating data and function of the machineries have met the specification stated in the inspection report, the machinery can be delivered to the customer’s designated location stated in the contract and the control of the machinery can be transferred. At this time, the customer has the right to determine the sales channels and price of those testing machineries, and has the ability to prevent other companies from directing the use and obtaining the benefits of these products. Thus, the Company recognizes the revenue generated from the sales of machineries at this time.

Considering the fact that assisting customers for the machinery installation and providing safety guidance are not significant, so the Company issues an invoice with total consideration to the customer and recognizes the amount as trade receivables upon the delivery of the machinery. In addition, the period between the sales of machinery and the actual receipt of the payment is within one year, therefore, there is no significant financial component. The Company provides its customer with a warranty for refund for defectives products. Such warranty is accounted for in accordance with IAS 17 as liability provision.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period when they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

Government grants

Government grants are recognized where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be complied with. Where the grant relates to an asset, it is recognized as deferred income and released to income in equal amounts over the expected useful life of the related asset. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income over the period necessary to match the grant on a systematic basis to the costs that it is intended to compensate.

Post-employment benefits

All regular employees of KYEC are entitled to a pension plan that is managed by an independently administered pension fund committee. Fund assets are deposited under the committee’s name in the specific bank account and hence not associated with KYEC. Therefore, fund assets are not included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Pension benefits for employees of the overseas subsidiaries and the branches are provided in accordance with the respective local regulations.

For the defined contribution plan, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries will make a monthly contribution of no less than 6% of the monthly wages of the employees subject to the plan. The Company recognizes expenses for the defined contribution plan in the period in which the contribution becomes due. Overseas subsidiaries and branches make contribution to the plan based on the requirements of local regulations.

Post-employment benefit plan that is classified as a defined benefit plan uses the Projected Unit Credit Method to measure its obligations and costs based on actuarial assumptions. Remeasurements, comprising of the effect of the actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling (excluding net interest) and the return on plan assets, excluding net interest, are recognized as other comprehensive income with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings in the period in which they occur. Past service costs are recognized in profit or loss on the earlier of:

A. the date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and

  • B. the date that the Company recognizes restructuring-related costs.

Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset, both as determined at the start of the annual reporting period, taking account of any changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset) during the period as a result of contribution and benefit payment.

Share-based payment transactions

The cost of equity-settled transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries is recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments granted. The fair value of the equity instruments is determined by using an appropriate pricing model.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognized, together with a corresponding increase in other capital reserves in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions

-256-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

are fulfilled. The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The income statement expense or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that period.

No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for equity-settled transactions where vesting is conditional upon a market or non-vesting condition, which are treated as vesting irrespective of whether or not the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.

Where the terms of an equity-settled transaction award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the expense as if the terms had not been modified, if the original terms of the award are met. An additional expense is recognized for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification.

Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognized for the award is recognized immediately. This includes any award where non-vesting conditions within the control of either the entity or the employee are not met. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new awards are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

The cost of restricted stocks issued is recognized as salary expense based on the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant date, together with a corresponding increase in other capital reserves in equity, over the vesting period. The Company recognizes unearned employee salary which is a transitional contra equity account; the balance in the account will be recognized as salary expense over the passage of vesting period.

Income taxes

Income tax expense (income) is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.

A. Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Current income tax relating to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity is recognized in other comprehensive income or equity and not in profit or loss.

The income tax for unappropriated earnings is recognized as income tax expense in the subsequent year when distribution proposal is approved by the shareholders’ meeting.

B. Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except:

  • a. where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

  • b. in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized, except:

  • a. where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

  • b. in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized accordingly.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current income tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

5. Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements require management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods.

Estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

A. Fair value of Level 3 financial instruments

Where the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using valuation techniques including the income approach (for example the discounted cash flows model) or market approach. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of the financial instruments. Please refer to Note 12 for more details.

  • B. Revenue recognition - sales returns and discounts

The Company estimates sales returns and allowance based on historical experience and other known factors at the time of sale, which reduces the operating revenue. In assessing the aforementioned sales returns and allowance, on the basis of highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Please refer to Note 6. (11) for more details.

(13) Post-employment benefits

Defined contribution plan

The Company adopted a defined contribution plan in accordance with the Labor Pension Act of the R.O.C. The Company has made monthly contribution of 6% of each individual employee’s salaries or wages to employee’s pension accounts.

Subsidiaries located in the People’s Republic of China will contribute social welfare benefits based on a certain percentage of employee’s salaries or wages to the employee’s individual pension accounts.

Pension benefits for employees of overseas subsidiaries and branches are provided in accordance with the local regulations.

Pension expenses under the defined contribution plan for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were NT$403,109 thousand and NT$338,317 thousand, respectively.

Defined benefit plan

The Company adopts a defined benefit plan in accordance with the Labor Standards Act of the R.O.C. The pension benefits are disbursed based on the units of service years and the average salaries in the last month of the service year. Two units per year are awarded for the first 15 years of services while one unit per year is awarded after the completion of the 15th year. The total units shall not exceed 45 units. Under the Labor Standards Act, the Company contributes an amount equivalent to 2% of the employees’ total salaries and wages on a monthly basis to the pension fund deposited at the Bank of Taiwan in the name of the administered pension fund committee. Before the end of each year, the Company assesses the balance in the designated labor pension fund. If the amount is inadequate to pay pensions calculated for workers retiring in the same year, the Company will make up the difference in one appropriation before the end of March the following year.

The Ministry of Labor is in charge of establishing and implementing the fund utilization plan in accordance with the Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilization of the Labor Retirement Fund. The pension fund is invested in-house or under mandation, based on a passive-aggressive investment strategy for long-term profitability. The Ministry of Labor

establishes checks and risk management mechanism based on the assessment of risk factors including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk, in order to maintain adequate manager flexibility to achieve targeted return without over-exposure of risk. With regard to utilization of the pension fund, the minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall not be less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from twoyear time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks. Treasury Funds can be used to cover the deficits after the approval of the competent authority. As the Company does not participate in the operation and management of the pension fund, no disclosure on the fair value of the plan assets categorized in different classes could be made in accordance with paragraph 142 of IAS 19. The Company expects to contribute NT$17,555 thousand to its defined benefit plan during the 12 months beginning after December 31, 2022.

The maturities of the defined benefits plan as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are in 2058 and 2052, respectively.

The sensitivity analyses above are based on a change in a significant assumption (for example: change in discount rate or future salary), keeping all other assumptions constant. The sensitivity analyses may not be representative of an actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that changes in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another.

There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analyses compared to the previous period.

  • d. set aside or reverse special reserve in accordance with law and regulations; and

  • e. the distribution of the remaining portion, if any, will be recommended by the Board of Directors and resolved in the shareholders’ meeting.

The policy of dividend distribution should reflect factors such as the current and future investment environment, fund requirements, domestic and international competition and capital budgets; as well as the interest of the shareholders, share bonus equilibrium and long-term financial planning, etc. The Board of Directors shall make the distribution proposal annually and present it at the shareholders’ meeting. As the Company currently is still in the growth stage, funding may be required in the near future for expansion. Therefore, the current policy is to distribute cash dividends at no less than 20% of total dividends to be distributed.

According to the Company Act, the Company needs to set aside amount to legal reserve unless where such legal reserve amounts to the total authorized capital. The legal reserve can be used to offset the deficit of the Company. When the Company incurs no loss, it may distribute the portion of legal reserve which exceeds 25% of the paid-in capital by issuing new shares or by cash in proportion to the number of shares being held by each of the shareholders.

Pursuant to existing regulations, the Company is required to set aside additional special reserve equivalent to the net debit balance of the other components of shareholders’ equity. For any subsequent reversal of other net deductions from shareholders’ equity, the amount reversed may be distributed.

Following the adoption of TIFRS, the FSC on April 6, 2012 issued Order No. FinancialSupervisory-Securities-Corporate-1010012865, which sets out the following provisions for compliance:

On a public company's first-time adoption of the TIFRS, for any unrealized revaluation gains and cumulative translation adjustments (gains) recorded in shareholders’ equity that the Company elects to transfer to retained earnings by application of the exemption under IFRS 1, the Company shall set aside an equal amount of special reserve. Following a company’s adoption of the TIFRS for the preparation of its financial reports, when distributing distributable earnings, it shall set aside to special reserve, from the profit/loss of the current period and the undistributed earnings from the previous period, an amount

equal to “other net deductions from shareholders’ equity” for the current fiscal year, provided that if the company has already set aside special reserve according to the requirements in the preceding point, it shall set aside supplemental special reserve based on the difference between the amount already set aside and other net deductions from shareholders’ equity. For any subsequent reversal of other net deductions from shareholders’ equity, the amount reversed may be distributed.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, special reserve set aside for the first-time adoption of TIFRS amounted to NT$201,416 thousand.

remuneration is to be reviewed by the Compensation Committee for its plausibility and submitted to the Board of Directors for resolution.

The employee’s compensation policy of the Company takes into account various factors such as individual’s salary, rank, and performance evaluation, the industry norm and the Company’s operating results, etc.

In accordance with the Articles of Incorporation, 8% to 10% of profit of the current year is distributable as employees’ compensation and no higher than 1% of profit of the current year is distributable as remuneration to directors. However, KYEC’s accumulated losses shall have been covered (if any). KYEC may, by a resolution adopted by a majority vote at a meeting of Board of Directors attended by two-thirds of the total number of directors, have the profit distributable as employees’ compensation in the form of shares or in cash; and in addition thereto a report of such distribution is submitted to the shareholders’ meeting. Information on the Board of Directors’ resolution regarding the employees’ compensation and remuneration to directors can be obtained from the “Market Observation Post System” on the website of the TWSE.

Based on profit of current period, KYEC estimated the amounts of the employees’ compensation and remuneration to directors for the year ended December 31, 2022 to be 8% of profit of current period (or NT$746,296 thousand) and 0.8% of profit of current period (or NT$74,630 thousand), respectively, which were recognized as salary expense. If the Board of Directors resolved to distribute employees’ compensation in the form of stocks, then the number of stocks distributed is calculated based on the closing price one day prior to the date of resolution. If the estimated amounts differ from the actual distribution resolved by the Board of Directors, the difference will be recognized in the profit or loss in the subsequent year. A resolution was passed at a Board of Directors meeting held on March 2, 2023 to distribute NT$746,296 thousand and NT$74,630 thousand in cash as employees’ compensation and remuneration to directors, respectively, which were consistent with the estimated amounts recognized for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Actual distribution of employees’ compensation and remuneration to directors of 2021 amounted to NT$569,336 thousand and NT$56,934 thousand, respectively. No material differences exist between the estimated amount and the actual distribution of the employee compensation and remuneration to directors for the year ended 31 December 2021.

(2) Financial risk management objectives

The objective of the Company’s financial risk management is mainly to manage the market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk derived from its operating activities. The Company identified, measured and managed the aforementioned risks based on the Company’s policy and risk tendency.

The Company has established appropriate policies, procedures and internal controls for financial risk management. The plans for material treasury activities are reviewed by Board of Directors and Audit committee in accordance with relevant regulations and internal controls. The Company complies with its financial risk management policies at all times.

(3) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of the changes in market prices. Market prices comprise foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk (such as equity risk).

In practice, it is rarely the case that a single risk variable will change independently from other risk variables, there are usually interdependencies between risk variables. However, the sensitivity analysis disclosed below does not take into account the interdependencies between risk variables.

-315-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

A. Foreign currency risk

The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company’s operating activities (when revenue or expense are denominated in a different currency from the Company’s functional currency) and the Company’s net investments in foreign operations.

Some receivables and payables are denominated in the same foreign currency, and it will result in economic hedging effect. Further, net investments in foreign operations are primarily for strategic purposes, and they are not hedged by the Company.

The Company's sensitivity analysis to foreign currency risk mainly focuses on foreign currency monetary items at the end of the reporting period. The Company’s foreign currency risk is mainly from the volatility in the exchange rates of US$ and CNY. The sensitivity analysis is as follows:

When NT$ appreciates or depreciates against US$ by 1%, the profit for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 would have increased/decreased by NT$13,617 thousand and NT$24,631 thousand, respectively.

When NT$ appreciates or depreciates against CNY by 1%, the profit for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 would have increased/decreased by NT$19,040 thousand and decreased/increased by NT$1,843 thousand, respectively.

B. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s loans and receivables at variable interest rates, bank borrowings with fixed interest rates and variable interest rates.

The Company manages its risk by having a balanced portfolio of financial instruments with fixed and floating interest rates. The Company did not apply hedging accounting since such hedging activities did not qualify for criteria of hedge accounting.

The Company’s sensitivity analysis to interest rate risk mainly focuses on items exposed to interest rate risk at the end of the reporting period, including investments with floating

-316-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

interest rates and bank borrowings with floating rates. Assuming investments and bank borrowings had been outstanding for the entire period and all other variables were constant, a hypothetical increase/decrease of 10 basis points of interest rate in a reporting period would have resulted in a decrease/increase in profit by NT$26,317 thousand and NT$26,138 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

C. Equity price risk

The Company’s equity investments, including listed and unlisted equity securities, are exposed to market price risk arising from uncertainties of future values of equity securities. The Company’s investments in listed and unlisted equity securities are classified under financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. The Company manages the equity price risk through diversification and placing limits on individual and total equity investments. Reports on the equity portfolio are submitted to the Company’s senior management on a regular basis. The Company’s Board of Directors reviews and approves certain significant equity investments according to level of authority.

At the reporting date ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, a change of 20% in the price of the listed equity securities classified under equity instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income would have impact of NT$7,872 thousand and NT$8,606 thousand on the equity attributable to the Company.

Please refer to Note 12(3) section H for sensitivity analysis information of other equity instruments or derivatives that are linked to such equity instruments whose fair value measurement is categorized under Level 3.

D. Credit risk management

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from operating activities (primarily for contract assets, trade receivables and notes receivable) and from its financing activities (including bank deposits and other financial instruments).

Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company’s established policy, procedures and controls relating to customer credit risk management. Credit limits are established for all customers based on their financial position, rating from credit rating agencies, historical experience, prevailing economic condition and the

-317-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Company’s internal rating criteria, etc. Certain customer’s credit risk will also be managed by taking credit enhancing procedures, such as requesting for prepayment and insurance.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, receivables from top ten customers represented 49% and 48% of the total trade receivables of the Company, respectively. The credit concentration risk of other accounts receivable was insignificant.

The Company manages its exposure to credit risk arising from bank deposits, fixed income securities and other financial instruments in accordance with established group policies. Since the counter-parties are selected reputable financial institutions and companies, the Company believes its exposure to credit risk is not significant.

E. Liquidity risk management

The Company maintained financial flexibility through the holding of cash and cash equivalents, investments in securities with high liquidity, and facilities of bank borrowings. The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities based on the contractual undiscounted payments and contractual maturity, and the payment amount also includes the contractual interest. The undiscounted payment relating to borrowings with variable interest rates is extrapolated based on the estimated interest rate yield curve as of the end of the reporting period.

G. Fair values of financial instruments

  • a. The methods and assumptions applied in determining the fair value of financial instruments:

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company to measure or disclose the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities:

  • (a) The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other payables approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.

  • (b) For financial assets and liabilities traded in an active market with standard terms and conditions, their fair value is determined based on market quotation price at the reporting date.

  • (c) Fair value of equity instruments without market quotations (including private placement of listed equity securities, unquoted public company and private company equity securities) are estimated using the market method valuation techniques based on parameters such as prices based on market transactions of equity instruments of identical or comparable entities and other relevant information (for example, inputs such as discount for lack of marketability, P/E ratio of similar entities and Price-Book ratio of similar entities).

  • (d) Fair value of debt instruments without market quotations, bank loans and other noncurrent liabilities are determined based on the counterparty prices or valuation method. The valuation method uses DCF method as a basis, and the assumptions such as the interest rate and discount rate are primarily based on relevant information of similar instruments.

  • b. Fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost approximate their fair value.

  • c. Fair value measurement hierarchy for financial instruments

Please refer to Note 12(3) section H for fair value measurement hierarchy for financial instruments of the Company.

H. Fair value measurement hierarchy

  • a. Fair value measurement hierarchy

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole. Level 1, 2 and 3 inputs are described as follows:

Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

  • Level 2: Input other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.

  • Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities.

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization at the end of each reporting period.

  • b. Fair value measurement hierarchy of the Company’s assets and liabilities

The Company does not have assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; the following table presents the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Company’s assets and liabilities on a recurring basis:

A. IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures” — Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Ventures

The amendments address the inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”, in dealing with the loss of control of a subsidiary that is contributed to an associate or a joint venture. IAS 28 restricts gains and losses arising from contributions of non-monetary assets to an associate or a joint venture to the extent of the interest attributable to the other equity holders in the associate or joint venture. IFRS 10 requires full profit or loss recognition on the loss of control of a subsidiary. IAS 28 was amended so that the gain or loss resulting from the sale or contribution of assets that constitute a business as defined in IFRS 3 between an investor and its associate or joint venture is recognized in full.

IFRS 10 was also amended so that the gain or loss resulting from the sale or contribution of a subsidiary that does not constitute a business as defined in IFRS 3 between an investor and its associate or joint venture is recognized only to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interests in the associate or joint venture.

B. IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts”

IFRS 17 provides a comprehensive model for insurance contracts, covering all relevant accounting aspects (including recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements). The core of IFRS 17 is the General (building block) Model, under this model, on initial recognition, an entity shall measure a group of insurance contracts at the total of the fulfilment cash flows and the contractual service margin. The carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts at the end of each reporting period shall be the sum of the liability for remaining coverage and the liability for incurred claims.

Other than the General Model, the standard also provides a specific adaptation for contracts with direct participation features (the Variable Fee Approach) and a simplified approach (Premium Allocation Approach) mainly for short-duration contracts.

IFRS 17 was issued in May 2017 and it was amended in 2020 and 2021.

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Statement of Compliance

The parent company only financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers (“the Regulations”).

Basis of Preparation

The Company prepares the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations. According to article 21 of the Regulations, the profit or loss and other comprehensive income presented in the parent company only financial statements will be the same as the allocations of profit or loss and of other comprehensive income attributable to owners of the parent presented in the financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis, and the owners' equity presented in the parent company only financial statements will be the same as the equity attributable to owners of the parent presented in the financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis. Therefore, the investments in subsidiaries will be disclosed under “Investments accounted for using the equity method” in the parent company only financial report and change in value will be adjusted.

The parent company only financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. The parent company only financial statements are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan Dollars (“NT$”) unless otherwise stated.

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Foreign currency transactions

The parent company only financial statements are presented in NT$, which is also the Company’ functional currency.

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company’s functional currency rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions.

All exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items are taken to profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for the following:

  • A. exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings for an acquisition of a qualifying asset to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs are included in the borrowing costs that are eligible for capitalization.

  • B. foreign currency items within the scope of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” are accounted for based on the accounting policy for financial instruments.

  • C. exchange differences arising on a monetary item that forms part of a reporting entity’s net investment in a foreign operation is recognized initially in other comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on disposal of the net investment.

When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized in other comprehensive income, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income. When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized in profit or loss, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss.

Translation of financial statements in foreign currency

Each foreign operation of the Company determines its functional currency upon its primary economic environment and items included in the financial statements of each operation are

-353-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

measured using that functional currency. The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into NT$ at the closing rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and their income and expenses are translated at an average rate for the period. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognized in other comprehensive income. On the disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences relating to that foreign operation, recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the separate component of equity, is reclassified from equity to profit or loss when the gain or loss on disposal is recognized. The following partial disposals are accounted for as disposals:

  • A. when the partial disposal involves the loss of control of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation; and

  • B. when the retained interest after the partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or a partial disposal of an interest in an associate that includes a foreign operation is a financial asset that includes a foreign operation.

On the partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation that does not result in a loss of control, the proportionate share of the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income is adjustment in “investments accounted for using the equity method”. In partial disposal of an associate or jointly controlled entity that includes a foreign operation that does not result in a loss of significant influence or joint control, only the proportionate share of the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss.

Any goodwill and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and expressed in its functional currency.

Current and non-current distinction

An asset is classified as current when:

  • A. the Company expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal operating cycle;

  • B. the Company holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • C. the Company expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting period; or

-354-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

  • D. the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when:

  • A. the Company expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle;

  • B. the Company holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • C. the liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • D. the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term, highly liquid time deposits (including ones that have maturity within twelve months) or investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” are recognized initially at fair value plus or minus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

  • A. Financial instruments: Recognition and Measurement

The Company accounts for regular way purchase or sales of financial assets on the trade date.

-355-

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss considering both factors below:

  • a. the Company’s business model for managing the financial assets and

  • b. the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met and presented as note receivables, trade receivables, financial assets measured at amortized cost and other receivables, etc., on balance sheet as at the reporting date:

  • a. the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and

  • b. the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost (the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial recognition minus the principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of any difference between the initial amount and the maturity amount and adjusted for any loss allowance) and is not part of a hedging relationship. A gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss when the financial asset is derecognized, through the amortization process or in order to recognize the impairment gains or losses.

Interest revenue is calculated by using the effective interest method. This is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for:

  • a. purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Company applies the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset from initial recognition.

  • b. financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets but subsequently have become credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Company applies the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset in subsequent reporting periods.

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the following conditions are met:

  • a. the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and

  • b. the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Recognition of gain or loss on a financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is described as below:

  • a. A gain or loss on a financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognized in other comprehensive income, except for impairment gains or losses and foreign exchange gains and losses, until the financial asset is derecognized or reclassified.

  • b. When the financial asset is derecognized the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment.

  • c. Interest revenue is calculated by using the effective interest method. This is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for:

  • (a) purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Company applies the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset from initial recognition.

  • (b) financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets but subsequently have become credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Company applies the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset in subsequent reporting periods.

Besides, for certain equity investments within the scope of IFRS 9 that is neither held for trading nor contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination to which IFRS 3 applies, the Company made an irrevocable election to present the changes of the fair value in other comprehensive income at initial recognition. Amounts presented in other

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

comprehensive income shall not be subsequently transferred to profit or loss (when disposal of such equity instrument, its cumulated amount included in other components of equity is transferred directly to the retained earnings) and these investments should be presented as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income on the balance sheet. Dividends on such investments are recognized in profit or loss unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of investment.

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets are classified as measured at amortized cost or measured at fair value through other comprehensive income based on aforementioned criteria. All other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss and presented on the balance sheet as financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Such financial assets are measured at fair value, the gains or losses resulting from remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss which includes any dividend or interest received on such financial assets.

B. Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on debt instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets measured at amortized cost. The loss allowance on debt instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognized in other comprehensive income and does not reduce the carrying amount in the statement of financial position.

The Company measures expected credit losses of a financial instrument in a way that reflects:

  • a. an unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes;

  • b. the time value of money; and

  • c. reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

-358-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

The loss allowance is measured as follows:

  • a. at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses: the credit risk on a financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition or the financial asset is determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date. In addition, the Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses in the previous reporting period, but determines at the current reporting date that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition is no longer met.

  • b. at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses: the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition or financial asset that is purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset.

  • c. for trade receivables or contract assets arising from transactions within the scope of IFRS 15, the Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

  • d. For lease receivables arising from transactions within the scope of IFRS 16, the Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

At each reporting date, the Company needs to assess whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition by comparing the risk of a default occurring at the reporting date and the risk of default occurring at initial recognition. Please refer to Note 12 for further details on credit risk.

  • C. Derecognition of financial assets

A financial asset is derecognized when:

  • a. the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired.

  • b. the Company has transferred the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset have been transferred.

  • c. the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration received or receivable including any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income, is recognized in profit or loss.

D. Financial liabilities and equity

Classification between liabilities or equity

The Company classifies the instrument issued as a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial liability, and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. The transaction costs of an equity transaction are accounted for as a deduction from equity to the extent they are incremental costs directly attributable to the equity transaction that otherwise would have been avoided.

Compound instruments

The Company evaluates the terms of the convertible bonds issued to determine whether it contains both a liability and an equity component. Furthermore, the Company assesses if the economic characteristics and risks of the put and call options contained in the convertible bonds are closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host contract before separating the equity element.

For the liability component excluding the derivatives, its fair value is determined based on the rate of interest applied at that time by the market to instruments of comparable credit status. The liability component is classified as a financial liability measured at amortized cost before the instrument is converted or settled.

For the embedded derivative that is not closely related to the host contract (for example, if the exercise price of the embedded call or put option is not approximately equal on each exercise date to the amortized cost of the host debt instrument), it is classified as a liability component and subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it qualifies for an equity component. The equity component is assigned the residual amount after deducting from the fair value of the instrument as a whole the amount separately determined for the liability component. Its carrying amount is not remeasured in the subsequent accounting periods. If the

-360-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

convertible bond issued does not have an equity component, it is accounted for as a hybrid instrument in accordance with the requirements under IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”.

Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the convertible bond based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are initially recognized.

On conversion of a convertible bond before maturity, the carrying amount of the liability component being the amortized cost at the date of conversion is transferred to equity.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities measured at amortized cost upon initial recognition.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss. Gains or losses on the subsequent measurement of liabilities held for trading including interest paid are recognized in profit or loss.

A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:

  • a. it is acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing it in the near term;

  • b. on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

  • c. it is a derivative (except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a designated and effective hedging instrument).

-361-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

If a contract contains one or more embedded derivatives, the entire hybrid (combined) contract may be designated as a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss; or a financial liability may be designated as at fair value through profit or loss when doing so results in more relevant information, because either:

  • a. it eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency; or

  • b. a group of financial liabilities or financial assets and financial liabilities is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the group is provided internally on that basis to the key management personnel.

Gains or losses on the subsequent measurement of liabilities at fair value through profit or loss including interest paid are recognized in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities at amortized cost

Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost include interest bearing loans and borrowings that are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate method after initial recognition. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the effective interest rate method amortization process.

Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or transaction costs.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified (whether or not attributable to the financial difficulty of the debtor), such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts and the consideration paid, including any noncash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.

-362-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

  • E. Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Derivative financial instruments

The Company uses derivative instruments to hedge its foreign currency risks and interest rate risks. A derivative is classified in the balance sheet as assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss except for derivatives that are designated effective hedging instruments which are classified as derivative financial assets or liabilities for hedging.

Derivative instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to profit or loss, except for the effective portion of hedges, which is recognized in either profit or loss or equity according to type of hedges used.

When the host contracts are either non-financial assets or labilities, derivatives embedded in host contracts are accounted for as separate derivatives and recorded at fair value if their economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host contracts are not designed at fair value though profit or loss.

Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

  • a. in the principal market for the asset or liability, or

  • b. in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to by the Company.

-363-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese

KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming market participants in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value item by item.

Costs incurred in bringing each inventory to its present location and condition are accounted for as follows:

Raw materials – Purchase cost on weighted average method

Finished goods and work in progress – Cost of direct materials and labor and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Rendering of services is accounted in accordance with IFRS 15 and not within the scope of inventories.

Investments accounted for using the equity method

According to Article 21 of the Regulations, the investments in subsidiaries will be disclosed under “investments accounted for using the equity method” and changes in value will be adjusted accordingly. The profit or loss and other comprehensive income presented in the parent company only financial statements will be the same as the allocations of profit or loss and other

-364-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

comprehensive income attributable to owners of the parent presented in the financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis, and the owners' equity presented in the parent company only financial statements will be the same as the equity attributable to owners of the parent presented in the financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis. The difference of the accounting treatment between the parent company only basis and the consolidated basis are adjusted under “investments accounted for using the equity method”, “share of profit of subsidiaries and associates accounted for using the equity method” and “share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries and associates accounted for using the property equity method”.

The Company’s investment in its associates is accounted for using the equity method. An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence.

Under the equity method, the investment in the associate is carried in the balance sheet at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the Company’s share of net assets of the associate. After the interest in the associate is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Company and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s related interest in the associate.

When changes in the net assets of an associate occur and not those that are recognized in profit or loss or other comprehensive income and do not affect the Company’s percentage of ownership interests in the associate, the Company recognizes such changes in equity based on its percentage of ownership interests. The resulting capital surplus recognized will be reclassified to profit or loss at the time of disposing the associate on a pro rata basis.

When the associate issues new shares, and the Company’s interest in an associate is reduced or increased as the Company fails to acquire shares newly issued in the associate proportionately to its original ownership interest, the increase or decrease in the interest in the associate is recognized in capital surplus and investments accounted for using the equity method. When the interest in the associate is reduced, the cumulative amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss or other appropriate items. The aforementioned capital surplus recognized is reclassified to profit or loss on a pro rata basis when the Company disposes the associate.

-365-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

The financial statements of the associate are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Company.

The Company determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate or an investment in a joint venture is impaired in accordance with IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”. If this is the case, the Company calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognizes the amount in the ‘share of profit or loss of an associate’ in the statement of comprehensive income in accordance with IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”. In determining the value in use of the investment, the Company estimates:

  • A. its share of the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the associate, including the cash flows from the operations of the associate and the proceeds on the ultimate disposal of the investment; or

  • B. the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from dividends to be received from the investment and from its ultimate disposal.

Because goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate or an investment in a joint venture is not separately recognized, it is not tested for impairment separately by applying the requirements for goodwill impairment testing in IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”.

Upon loss of significant influence over the associate or joint venture, the Company measures and recognizes any retaining investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate or joint venture upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retaining investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in profit or loss. Furthermore, if an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the entity continues to apply the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Such cost includes the cost of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located and borrowing costs for construction in progress if the recognition criteria are met. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that

-366-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated separately. When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced in intervals, the Company recognizes such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives and depreciation. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognized in accordance with the derecognition provisions of IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment”. When a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic lives of the following assets:

Buildings and facilities 31 years
Plant equipment 5�16 years
Machinery and equipment 2�8 years
Transportation equipment 3�6 years
Office equipment 3�5 years
Right-of-use assets 4�28 years
Miscellaneous equipment 3�11 years
Leasehold improvements 10 years

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

The assets’ residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

Leases

The Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time, the Company assesses whether the contract, throughout the period of use, has both of the following:

-367-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

  • (a) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset; and

  • (b) the right to direct the use of the identified asset.

For a contract that is, or contains, a lease, the Company accounts for each lease component within the contract as a lease separately from non-lease components of the contract. For a contract that contains a lease component and one or more additional lease or non-lease components, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of the nonlease components. The relative stand-alone price of lease and non-lease components shall be determined on the basis of the price the lessor, or a similar supplier, would charge the Company for that component, or a similar component, separately. If an observable stand-alone price is not readily available, the Company estimates the stand-alone price, maximizing the use of observable information.

A. The Company as a lessee

Except for leases that meet and elect short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Company recognizes right-of-use asset and lease liability for all leases which the Company is the lessee of those lease contracts.

At the commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate. At the commencement date, the lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following payments for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term that are not paid at the commencement date:

  • (a) fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable;

  • (b) variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;

  • (c) amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;

  • (d) the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and

  • (e) payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.

After the commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability on an amortized cost basis, which increases the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability by using an effective interest method; and reduces the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

At the commencement date, the Company measures the right-of-use asset at cost. The cost of the right-of-use asset comprises:

  • (a) the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability;

  • (b) any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received;

  • (c) any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and

  • (d) an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.

For subsequent measurement of the right-of-use asset, the Company measures the right-of-use asset at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. That is, the Company measures the right-of-use asset applying a cost model.

If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company by the end of the lease term or if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Company will exercise a purchase option, the Company depreciates the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the Company depreciates the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term.

The Company applies IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets” to determine whether the right-of-use asset is impaired and to account for any impairment loss identified.

Except for those leases that the Company accounted for as short-term leases or leases of lowvalue assets, the Company presents right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the balance sheet and separately presents lease-related interest expense and depreciation charge in the statement of consolidated comprehensive income statement.

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

For short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Company elects to recognize the lease payments associated with those leases as an expense on either a straight-line basis over the lease term or another systematic basis.

B. The Company as a lessor

At inception of a contract, the Company classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. At the commencement date, the Company recognizes assets held under a finance lease in its balance sheet and presents them as a receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease.

For a contract that contains lease components and non-lease components, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract applying IFRS 15.

The Company recognizes lease payments from operating leases as rental income on either a straight-line basis or another systematic basis. Variable lease payments for operating leases that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as rental income when incurred.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalized development costs, are not capitalized and expenditure is reflected in profit or loss for the year in which the expenditure is incurred.

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life is

-370-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

reviewed at least at the end of each financial year. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.

A. Research and development costs

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditures, on an individual project, are recognized as an intangible asset when the Company can demonstrate:

  • a. the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;

  • b. its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset;

  • c. how the asset will generate future economic benefits;

  • d. the availability of resources to complete the asset; and

  • e. the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development.

Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the cost model is applied requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually. Amortization of the asset begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortized over the period of expected future benefit.

B. Computer software

The cost of computer software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life (3~5 years).

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

- Impairment of non financial assets

The Company assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that an asset in the scope of IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets” may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s (“CGU”) fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Company estimates the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been an increase in the estimated service potential of an asset which in turn increases the recoverable amount. However, the reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

A cash generating unit, or groups of cash-generating units, to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually at the same time, irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment. If an impairment loss is to be recognized, it is first allocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash generating unit (group of units), then to the other assets of the unit (group of units) pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit (group of units). Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods for any reason.

An impairment loss of continuing operations or a reversal of such impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

Treasury shares

Acquisitions of the shares of the Company (treasury shares) are recognized at cost and deducted from equity. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration, if reissues, is recognized in capital surplus under equity.

-372-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

When the retirement of treasury shares, capital surplus – share premiums and share capital are debited proportionately, gains on retirement of treasury shares should be recognized under existing capital surplus arising from similar types of treasury shares; losses on retirement of treasury shares should be offset against existing capital surplus form similar types of treasury shares. If there are insufficient capital reserves to be offset against, then such losses should be accounted for under retained earnings.

Revenue recognition

The Company’s revenue arising from contracts with customers are mainly rendering of processing services and rental of testing machinery. The accounting policies are explained as follows:

A. Rendering of services

The Company’s primary activity is to conduct testing and assembly services based on customer’s specification demand. According to the customer contract, the ownership of the work in process belongs to the customer. The customer controls the work in process when the Company provides services to create or enhance it. Accordingly, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied over time and the Company, based on the consideration stated in the customer contract (less estimated volume discount), recognizes service revenue over time. The Company estimates the volume discounts using the expected value method based on historical experiences. However, revenue is only recognized to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. During the period specified in the contract, refund liability is recognized for the expected volume discounts.

The credit period of the Company’s service revenue is from 30 to 120 days. For most of the contracts, when the Company transfers those processed assets to customers and has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, these contracts are recognized as trade receivables. The Company usually collects the payments shortly after transferring those processed assets to customers; therefore, there is no significant financing component to the contract. For some of the contracts, the Company transfers those processed assets to customers but does not have a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, these contacts should be presented as contract assets. Besides, in accordance with IFRS 9, the Company

-373-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

measures the loss allowance for a contract asset at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses.

B. Revenue from rental of machinery

The Company provides rental services for testing machineries based on customers’ demand. According to the contract, the Company provides tailored machineries to customers for testing purposes for a certain period of time. During the contract period, those machineries are for the contracted customers’ use only, and will not be mixed with other testing machineries. Meanwhile, during the contract period, those machineries are still under control of the Company, the customer does not have the right to control over or to direct the right of use of the rented machineries. Usually, the unit price is fixed and is stated in the contract. Accordingly, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied over time and the Company recognizes revenue from rental of the machinery by rental hours or testing volume multiplied by the fixed unit price, or over the rental period on a straight line basis.

The credit period of the Company’s service revenue is from 30 to 120 days. For most of the contracts, the Company recognizes trade receivables upon the completion of rental period. These trade receivables usually have short period and no significant financial component is arisen.

For some machinery rental contracts, prepayments are received from customers upon signing the contract, the Company then has the obligation to provide the services subsequently. Accordingly, these amounts are recognized as contract liabilities.

C. Sales of machinery

The Company manufactures and sells professional testing machinery. Those machineries must be tested for specifications according to the contract signed by both parties before being delivered to customers. The Company performs the specification test in accordance with the contract and issues a machinery inspection report to the customer. After the customer’s confirmation that the operating data and function of the machineries have met the specification stated in the inspection report, the machinery can be delivered to the customer’s designated location stated in the contract and the control of the machinery can be transferred. At this time, the customer has the right to determine the sales channels and price of those testing machineries, and has the ability to prevent other companies from directing the use and obtaining the benefits

-374-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

of these products. Thus, the Company recognizes the revenue generated from the sales of machineries at this time.

Considering the fact that assisting customers for the machinery installation and providing safety guidance are not significant, so the Company issues an invoice with total consideration to the customer and recognizes the amount as trade receivables upon the delivery of the machinery. In addition, the period between the sales of machinery and the actual receipt of the payment is within one year, therefore, there is no significant financial component. The Company provides its customer with a warranty for refund for defectives products. Such warranty is accounted for in accordance with IAS 17 as liability provision.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period when they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

Post-employment benefits

All regular employees of the Company are entitled to a pension plan that is managed by an independently administered pension fund committee. Fund assets are deposited under the committee’s name in the specific bank account and hence not associated with the Company. Therefore, fund assets are not included in the Company’s parent company only financial statements.

For the defined contribution plan, the Company will make a monthly contribution of no less than 6% of the monthly wages of the employees subject to the plan. The Company recognizes expenses for the defined contribution plan in the period in which the contribution becomes due.

Post-employment benefit plan that is classified as a defined benefit plan uses the Projected Unit Credit Method to measure its obligations and costs based on actuarial assumptions. Remeasurements, comprising of the effect of the actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling (excluding net interest) and the return on plan assets, excluding net interest, are recognized

-375-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

as other comprehensive income with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings in the period in which they occur. Past service costs are recognized in profit or loss on the earlier of:

  • A. the date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and

B. the date that the Company recognizes restructuring-related costs.

Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset, both as determined at the start of the annual reporting period, taking account of any changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset) during the period as a result of contribution and benefit payment.

Share-based payment transactions

The cost of equity-settled transactions between the Company and its employees is recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments granted. The fair value of the equity instruments is determined by using an appropriate pricing model.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognized, together with a corresponding increase in other capital reserves in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled. The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The income statement expense or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that period.

No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for equity-settled transactions where vesting is conditional upon a market or non-vesting condition, which are treated as vesting irrespective of whether or not the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.

Where the terms of an equity-settled transaction award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the expense as if the terms had not been modified, if the original terms of the award are met. An additional expense is recognized for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification.

-376-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognized for the award is recognized immediately. This includes any award where non-vesting conditions within the control of either the entity or the employee are not met. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new awards are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

The cost of restricted stocks issued is recognized as salary expense based on the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant date, together with a corresponding increase in other capital reserves in equity, over the vesting period. The Company recognizes unearned employee salary which is a transitional contra equity account; the balance in the account will be recognized as salary expense over the passage of vesting period.

Income taxes

Income tax expense (income) is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.

A. Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Current income tax relating to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity is recognized in other comprehensive income or equity and not in profit or loss.

The income tax for unappropriated earnings is recognized as income tax expense in the subsequent year when distribution proposal is approved by the shareholders’ meeting.

B. Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

-377-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except:

  • a. where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

  • b. in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized, except:

  • a. where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

  • b. in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized accordingly.

-378-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current income tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

5. Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s parent company only financial statements require management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods.

Estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:

A. Fair value of Level 3 financial instruments

Where the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using valuation techniques including the income approach (for example the discounted cash flows model) or market approach. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of the financial instruments. Please refer to Note 12 for more details.

B. Revenue recognition - sales returns and discounts

The Company estimates sales returns and allowance based on historical experience and other known factors at the time of sale, which reduces the operating revenue. In assessing the aforementioned sales returns and allowance, on the basis of highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Please refer to Note 6. (10) for more details.

Pension benefits for employees of overseas subsidiaries and branches are provided in accordance with the local regulations.

Pension expenses under the defined contribution plan for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were NT$201,466 thousand and NT$197,769 thousand, respectively.

Defined benefit plan

The Company adopts a defined benefit plan in accordance with the Labor Standards Act of the R.O.C. The pension benefits are disbursed based on the units of service years and the average salaries in the last month of the service year. Two units per year are awarded for the first 15 years of services while one unit per year is awarded after the completion of the 15th year. The total units shall not exceed 45 units. Under the Labor Standards Act, the Company contributes an amount equivalent to 2% of the employees’ total salaries and wages on a monthly basis to the pension fund deposited at the Bank of Taiwan in the name of the administered pension fund committee. Before the end of each year, the Company assesses the balance in the designated labor pension fund. If the amount is inadequate to pay pensions calculated for workers retiring in the same year, the Company will make up the difference in one appropriation before the end of March the following year.

The Ministry of Labor is in charge of establishing and implementing the fund utilization plan in accordance with the Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilization of the Labor Retirement Fund. The pension fund is invested in-house or under mandation, based on a passive-aggressive investment strategy for long-term profitability. The Ministry of Labor establishes checks and risk management mechanism based on the assessment of risk factors including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk, in order to maintain adequate manager flexibility to achieve targeted return without over-exposure of risk. With regard to utilization of the pension fund, the minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall not be less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from twoyear time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks. Treasury Funds can be used to cover the deficits after the approval of the competent authority. As the Company does not participate in the operation and management of the pension fund, no disclosure on the fair value of the plan assets categorized in different classes could be made in accordance with paragraph 142 of IAS 19. The Company expects to contribute NT$17,555 thousand to its defined benefit plan during the 12 months beginning after December 31, 2022.

The maturities of the defined benefits plan as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are in 2058 and 2052.

The sensitivity analyses above are based on a change in a significant assumption (for example: change in discount rate or future salary), keeping all other assumptions constant.

According to the Company Act, the capital surplus shall not be used except for offset the deficit of the company. When a company incurs no loss, it may distribute the capital surplus generated from the excess of the issuance price over the par value of share capital and donations. The distribution could be made in cash to its shareholders in proportion to the number of shares being held by each of them.

C. Retained earnings and dividend policy

According to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, net profits for each fiscal year, if any, shall be distributed in following order:

  • a. reserve for tax payments;

  • b. offset prior year’s losses;

  • c. set aside 10% of the remaining amount after deducting items (a) and (b) as legal reserve;

  • d. set aside or reverse special reserve in accordance with law and regulations; and

  • e. the distribution of the remaining portion, if any, will be recommended by the Board of Directors and resolved in the shareholders’ meeting.

The policy of dividend distribution should reflect factors such as the current and future investment environment, fund requirements, domestic and international competition and capital budgets; as well as the interest of the shareholders, share bonus equilibrium and long-term financial planning, etc. The Board of Directors shall make the distribution proposal annually and present it at the shareholders’ meeting. As the Company currently is still in the growth stage, funding may be required in the near future for expansion. Therefore, the current policy is to distribute cash dividends at no less than 20% of total dividends to be distributed.

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

According to the Company Act, the Company needs to set aside amount to legal reserve unless where such legal reserve amounts to the total authorized capital. The legal reserve can be used to offset the deficit of the Company. When the Company incurs no loss, it may distribute the portion of legal reserve which exceeds 25% of the paid-in capital by issuing new shares or by cash in proportion to the number of shares being held by each of the shareholders.

Pursuant to existing regulations, the Company is required to set aside additional special reserve equivalent to the net debit balance of the other components of shareholders’ equity. For any subsequent reversal of other net deductions from shareholders’ equity, the amount reversed may be distributed.

Following the adoption of TIFRS, the FSC on April 6, 2012 issued Order No. FinancialSupervisory-Securities-Corporate-1010012865, which sets out the following provisions for compliance:

On a public company's first-time adoption of the TIFRS, for any unrealized revaluation gains and cumulative translation adjustments (gains) recorded in shareholders’ equity that the Company elects to transfer to retained earnings by application of the exemption under IFRS 1, the Company shall set aside an equal amount of special reserve. Following a company’s adoption of the TIFRS for the preparation of its financial reports, when distributing distributable earnings, it shall set aside to special reserve, from the profit/loss of the current period and the undistributed earnings from the previous period, an amount equal to “other net deductions from shareholders’ equity” for the current fiscal year, provided that if the company has already set aside special reserve according to the requirements in the preceding point, it shall set aside supplemental special reserve based on the difference between the amount already set aside and other net deductions from shareholders’ equity. For any subsequent reversal of other net deductions from shareholders’ equity, the amount reversed may be distributed.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, special reserve set aside for the first-time adoption of TIFRS amounted to NT$201,416 thousand.

The appropriations for earnings for 2021 were resolved by the shareholders in its meeting on June 29, 2022, while the proposed appropriation of earnings for 2022 were approved by Board of Directors on March 2, 2023. The appropriations and dividends per share were as follows:

option to extend the lease if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. These options are used to maximize operational flexibility in terms of managing contracts. The majority of extension and termination options held are exercisable only by the Company.

After the commencement date, the Company reassesses the lease term upon the occurrence of a significant event or a significant change in circumstances that is within the control of the lessee and affects whether the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an option not previously included in its determination of the lease term, or not to exercise an option previously included in its determination of the lease term.

  • (2) Financial risk management objectives

The objective of the Company’s financial risk management is mainly to manage the market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk derived from its operating activities. The Company identified, measured and managed the aforementioned risks based on the Company’s policy and risk tendency.

-426-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

The Company has established appropriate policies, procedures and internal controls for financial risk management. The plans for material treasury activities are reviewed by Board of Directors and Audit committee in accordance with relevant regulations and internal controls. The Company complies with its financial risk management policies at all times.

(3) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of the changes in market prices. Market prices comprise foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk (such as equity risk).

In practice, it is rarely the case that a single risk variable will change independently from other risk variables, there are usually interdependencies between risk variables. However, the sensitivity analysis disclosed below does not take into account the interdependencies between risk variables.

A. Foreign currency risk

The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company’s operating activities (when revenue or expense are denominated in a different currency from the Company’s functional currency) and the Company’s net investments in foreign operations.

Some receivables and payables are denominated in the same foreign currency, and it will result in economic hedging effect. Further, net investments in foreign operations are primarily for strategic purposes, and they are not hedged by the Company.

The Company's sensitivity analysis to foreign currency risk mainly focuses on foreign currency monetary items at the end of the reporting period. The Company’s foreign currency risk is mainly from the volatility in the exchange rates of US$. The sensitivity analysis is as follows:

When NT$ appreciates or depreciates against US$ by 1%, the profit for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 would have increased / decreased by NT$2,931 thousand and NT$520 thousand, respectively.

-427-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

B. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s loans and receivables at variable interest rates.

The Company manages its risk by having a balanced portfolio of financial instruments with fixed and floating interest rates. The Company did not apply hedging accounting since such hedging activities did not qualify for criteria of hedge accounting.

The Company’s sensitivity analysis to interest rate risk mainly focuses on items exposed to interest rate risk at the end of the reporting period, including investments with floating interest rates and bank borrowings with floating rates. Assuming investments and bank borrowings had been outstanding for the entire period and all other variables were constant, a hypothetical increase/decrease of 10 basis points of interest rate in a reporting period would have resulted in a decrease/increase in profit by NT$20,512 thousand and NT$21,303 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

C. Equity price risk

The Company’s equity investments, including listed and unlisted equity securities, are exposed to market price risk arising from uncertainties of future values of equity securities. The Company’s investments in listed and unlisted equity securities are classified under financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. The Company manages the equity price risk through diversification and placing limits on individual and total equity investments. Reports on the equity portfolio are submitted to the Company’s senior management on a regular basis. The Company’s Board of Directors reviews and approves certain significant equity investments according to level of authority.

At the reporting date ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, a change of 20% in the price of the listed equity securities classified under equity instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income would have impact of NT$7,872 thousand and NT$8,606 thousand on the equity attributable to the Company.

-428-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

Please refer to Note 12(3) section H for sensitivity analysis information of other equity instruments or derivatives that are linked to such equity instruments whose fair value measurement is categorized under Level 3.

D. Credit risk management

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from operating activities (primarily for contract assets, trade receivables and notes receivable) and from its financing activities (including bank deposits and other financial instruments).

Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company’s established policy, procedures and controls relating to customer credit risk management. Credit limits are established for all customers based on their financial position, rating from credit rating agencies, historical experience, prevailing economic condition and the Company’s internal rating criteria, etc. Certain customer’s credit risk will also be managed by taking credit enhancing procedures, such as requesting for prepayment and insurance.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, receivables from top ten customers represented 53% and 52% of the total trade receivables of the Company, respectively. The credit concentration risk of other accounts receivable was insignificant.

The Company manages its exposure to credit risk arising from bank deposits, fixed income securities and other financial instruments in accordance with established group policies. Since the counter-parties are selected reputable financial institutions and companies, the Company believes its exposure to credit risk is not significant.

E. Liquidity risk management

The Company maintained financial flexibility through the holding of cash and cash equivalents, investments in securities with high liquidity, and facilities of bank borrowings. The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities based on the contractual undiscounted payments and contractual maturity, and the payment amount also includes the contractual interest. The undiscounted payment relating to borrowings with variable interest rates is extrapolated based on the estimated interest rate yield curve as of the end of the reporting period.

G. Fair values of financial instruments

  • a. The methods and assumptions applied in determining the fair value of financial instruments:

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company to measure or disclose the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities:

-431-

English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese KING YUAN ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.

NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)

  • (a) The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other payables approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.

  • (b) For financial assets and liabilities traded in an active market with standard terms and conditions, their fair value is determined based on market quotation price at the reporting date.

  • (c) Fair value of equity instruments without market quotations (including private placement of listed equity securities, unquoted public company and private company equity securities) are estimated using the market method valuation techniques based on parameters such as prices based on market transactions of equity instruments of identical or comparable entities and other relevant information (for example, inputs such as discount for lack of marketability, P/E ratio of similar entities and Price-Book ratio of similar entities).

  • (d) Fair value of debt instruments without market quotations, bank loans and other noncurrent liabilities are determined based on the counterparty prices or valuation method. The valuation method uses DCF method as a basis, and the assumptions such as the interest rate and discount rate are primarily based on relevant information of similar instruments.

  • b. Fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost approximate their fair value.

  • c. Fair value measurement hierarchy for financial instruments

Please refer to Note 12(3) section H for fair value measurement hierarchy for financial instruments of the Company.

H. Fair value measurement hierarchy

  • a. Fair value measurement hierarchy

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole. Level 1, 2 and 3 inputs are described as follows:

  • Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

  • Level 2: Input other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.

  • Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities.

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization at the end of each reporting period.

  • b. Fair value measurement hierarchy of the Company’s assets and liabilities

The Company does not have assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; the following table presents the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Company’s assets and liabilities on a recurring basis:
