Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of Largan Precision Co., Ltd.:
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Largan Precision Co., Ltd. (the ”Company”) which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the parent company only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (“the Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the parent company only financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
1. Inventory valuation
Please refer to Note 4(g), Note 5(a), and Note 6(f) for accounting policies, uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions, and related disclosures for inventory valuation.
Description of key audit matter:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. With the rapid development of technology, and significant changes in market demand, the severe volatility to sales may lead to risks, wherein the costs of inventories may exceed its net realizable values. Therefore, the valuation of inventories has been identified as one of the key audit matters.
-8-
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures include obtaining an inventory aging report, analyzing the movement of inventory aging and evaluating the reasonableness of the Company’ s accounting policies, such as allowance for inventory valuation and obsolescence; performing a retrospective test of the Company’s historical accuracy of judgments with reference to inventory valuation and comparing with the current period to evaluate the appropriateness of the estimation and assumptions used; examining whether the valuation of inventories are in compliance with the accounting policies of the Company; understanding the basis of the selling price the management used to ensure the reasonableness of net realizable value of inventories; reviewing sales in the subsequent period, as well as assessing the basis of the net realizable value the Company used to determine the sufficiency of allowance of inventories and whether the related disclosures are appropriate.
2. Accounts Receivable Valuation
Please refer to Note 4(f), note 5(b), and Note 6(d) for accounting policies, uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions, and related disclosures for accounts receivables valuation, respectively.
Description of key audit matter:
The Company’ s accounts receivable are concentrated within certain customers, and the determination of allowance for accounts receivable relies on the management’s subjective judgment. Therefore, the valuation of accounts receivables is one of the key audit matters.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures include estimating the loss allowance of trade receivables that is based on the risk of a default occurring and the rate of expected credit loss; reviewing the historical collection records, understanding the industry economic environment and the credit risk of receivables among limited customers to evaluate whether the method of estimation, assumptions, and related disclosures are appropriate.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the IFRSs, IASs, IFRC, SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance (including the supervisors) are responsible for overseeing the Company’ s financial reporting process.
-9-
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information on the investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method in order to express an opinion on this financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
-10-
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Shyh-Huar, Kuo and Chun-Yuan, Wu.

Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of Largan Precision Co., Ltd.:
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Largan Precision Co., Ltd. (the ”Company”) and its subsidiaries (the” Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”), International Accounting Standards (“IASs”), Interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) or the former Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (“ the Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
1. Inventory valuation
Please refer to Note 4(h), Note 5(a), and Note 6(f) for accounting policies, uncertainty of accounting
-16-
Description of key audit matter:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. With the rapid development of technology, and significant changes in market demand, the severe volatility to sales may lead to risks, wherein the costs of inventories may exceed its net realizable values. Therefore, the valuation of inventories has been identified as one of the key audit matters.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures include obtaining an inventory aging report, analyzing the movement of inventory aging and evaluating the reasonableness of the Group’ s accounting policies, such as allowance for inventory valuation and obsolescence; performing a retrospective test of the Group’s historical accuracy of judgments with reference to inventory valuation and comparing with the current period to evaluate the appropriateness of the estimation and assumptions used; examining whether the valuation of inventories are in compliance with the accounting policies of the Group; understanding the basis of the selling price the management used to ensure the reasonableness of net realizable value of inventories; reviewing sales in the subsequent period, as well as assessing the basis of the net realizable value the Group used to determine the sufficiency of allowance of inventories and whether the related disclosures are appropriate.
2. Accounts Receivable Valuation
Please refer to Note 4(g), Note 5(b), and Note 6(d) for accounting policies, uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions, and related disclosures for accounts receivables valuation, respectively.
Description of key audit matter:
The Group’ s accounts receivable are concentrated within certain customers, and the determination of allowance for accounts receivable relies on the management’s subjective judgment. Therefore, the valuation of accounts receivables is one of the key audit matters.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures include estimating the loss allowance of accounts receivable that is based on the risk of a default occurring and the rate of expected credit loss; reviewing the historical collection records, understanding the industry economic environment and the credit risk of receivables among limited customers to evaluate whether the method of estimation, assumptions, and related disclosures are appropriate.
Other Matter
The Company has additionally prepared its parent company only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, on which we have issued an unqualified opinion.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the IFRSs, IASs, IFRC, SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or
-17-
Those charged with governance (including the supervisors) are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
-18-
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Shyh-Huar, Kuo and Chun-Yuan, Wu.
