IV. Impacts and Countermeasures under Macroeconomy, Policies and Regulations, and Market Supply and Demand Circumstances

(1) Macroeconomy

Although Taiwan's overall economy was ravaged by COVID-19 in 2020, under effects of abundant funds and policy imposing low interest rates, the country demonstrated strong capabilities against the pandemic, netting an economic growth rate at 1.56% and CPI rate at -0.19%. Taiwan’s housing market is relatively stable internationally, with decent performance in terms of prices and capacity. As economies around the globe continue to lower their economic indicators and their unemployment rates continue to grow, it is evident that the global economy and prosperity will take longer to recover; on the contrary, owing to the booming demand of the technology manufacturing industry in response as the world enters into the 5G era, Taiwan’s ginormous semiconductor industry is inevitably benefitted directly, hence, numerous professional research institutions have made unanimous predictions that Taiwan’s economic growth rate in 2021 is expected to surpass 3%.

In addition, as the US-Sino Trade conflict escalates, causing the profound influences to global economic industry chain, many Taiwanese business owners have gradually returned to Taiwan, furthermore resulting in a significant increase in the volume of industrial land and commercial real estate transactions, becoming the main driving force in the housing market in H2 2020, and real estate prices have begun to rebound slowly.

(2) Policies and Regulations

In recent years, the government has endeavored to promote a sound housing market policy, including the formulation and amendment to policies on the reconstruction of the unsafe and old buildings and related laws and regulations. Through separate acts for expediting the renewal of old and unsafe buildings and the urban renewal process, establishment of a dedicated agency " National Housing and Urban Regeneration Center (HURC)" and the inauguration of the Financial Union Urban Renewal Service Center officially, the country has officially initiated the Urban Renewal 2.0 for facilitation of policy execution efficacies. The projects of reconstruction of unsafe and old houses and urban renewal have doubled year by year at an average of 40 projects per year, and reached a staggering number at 956 projects between January and August in 2020. The Company has proposed the three principles of "Easy Integration, Clear Rewards, and Accelerated Review" to attain a triple-win for the civilians, practitioners and the industry.

In addition, according to statistics from the Directorate General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics of the Executive Yuan, Taiwan has officially become an aging age society in 2019 and is expected to become a hyper-aging society in 2026. As a result, to solve the potential social issues derived from aging population, the government has launched Long-Term Care 2.0 in 2018 with extended service items, fees subsidized and eligible groups as a countermeasure, while providing project financing to encourage the industry to invest in long-term care funds. In 2019 years, the government took advanced

11

measures to lower the threshold of return on real estate investment in the life insurance industry to 1.095%, allowing the insurance industry to contribute to senior citizen residences and daycare of aged population beyond the scope of Institutional Long-Term Care Juridical Entities Act.

  • (3) Supply and Demand of Real Estate Market

Albeit the global economy has been hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, due to relatively successful pandemic prevention, and favorable factors of low-profit circumstances, domestic banks muscling for mortgage business opportunities as well as continued transfer of funds to the housing market, Taiwanese housing market, except for the sluggish transactions from January to July in 2020 due to the horrors over pandemic and the customs refraining from walk-through of houses in the Ghost Month, recorded an ongoing growth compared to 2019 in total sales and ownership transfers of houses in the Six Municipalities of Taiwan, and the total house ownership transfers of the entire year is expected to surpass the 300,000 houses recorded in the previous year, heading for the record-high transaction volume in the recent six years.

In terms of industrial land, plant offices, and commercial real estate markets, due to the intensification of the Sino-US Trade War and the return of Taiwanese business owners, construction companies or enterprises contribute to the significant growth in transaction volumes for their ongoing purchases of lands, plant offices and commercial real estate. In Q3 2020, a majority of the land transactions made are in Taichung and New Taipei City, with a total transaction value of US$31.4 billion, while a record-breaking US$68.4 billion in transaction volume has been achieved in commercial real estate dealings. The current price for office realties in Taipei is marked at an average of NTD 852 thousand per Ping, with a rent capitalization rate at 2.54%. Construction and life insurance companies remain the contending for lands with raised stakes, and numerous developers also involved in the craze for office building and plant office houses, which nearly 20 office buildings are expected to be completed in construction within the next seven years. The average price for Neihu Technology Park market falls at NTD 527 thousand per Ping, yielding a rent capitalization rate at 2.71%. Faced with scarce supply in office buildings and sustained backflow of production forces of advanced technology companies, as well as severe shortage in high-end office buildings at downtown, Neihu Technology Park and Nankang will become the popular destinations for relocating enterprises.

(4) Conclusion and Countermeasures

Even if the COVID-19 is under effective control in Taiwan, due to the ongoing outbreak of pandemic in other countries with no signs of mitigation accompanied by chaos in circumstances after US Presidential elections as well as escalated Sino-US Trade War, along with circumstances containing sustained low rate in short-term financing and easing of capital, real estate remains one of the main investment methods adopted by corporate capitals for hedging; however, in consideration of the ongoing rise of pandemic, tardy pace for opening of global economy and concerns of housing market by competent authorities, the housing market in 2021 remains in high degree of uncertainty and shall have prudence over all engagements.

Under a comprehensive consideration, the Company will, in combination with government policies, make investments and assessments over urban renewal and reconstruction of unsafe and old building projects with premium locations, adjacency to MRT stations or major constructions and high level of integration which are situated in north to Taichung, with development categories mainly in residences, plant offices and office buildings, while incorporating the business opportunities in senior citizen demographics and extending the reach of management sectors to the concept of diversified management including recreation industry and professional operations of golf courses, Yin Zhai development and senior citizen residences, etc., creating a multi-win situation for the Group.

Consolidated Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2020 Attachment 3

Independent AuditorsReport

To the Board of Directors of Long Bon International Co., Ltd.:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Long Bon International Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and 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 of 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. Acquisition, disposal and evaluation of financial assets

Refer to Note 4(g) “Financial instruments”, 6(b) and (c) “ Financial Assets” to the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policy and the details of the information.

14

Description of the key audit matter

The carrying amounts of "financial assets at fair value through profit or loss" and "financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income" constitute 23% of total assets of the Group, which is significant for the financial statements as a whole. In addition, the Group’s recognized financial assets were evaluated at fair value. As for equity investment in unlisted companies, the fair value was obtained based on valuation technique or the quotation of the counterparty, and was recognized as "financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income". Since the valuation result of financial assets involves the financial restriction clause of financial institutions loan agreement for financing, it further impacts working capital management. Therefore, the acquisition, disposal of financial assets and the testing of end-of-period valuation were determined to be a critical matter in our audit of Group’s consolidated financial reports.

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Our main audit procedures for the above key audit matter include testing of the relevant control of acquisition, disposal, valuation, and accounting in the investment cycle; sampling the acquisition and disposal of financial assets, and checking relevant documents; reviewing as well as adjusting the PSI table and general ledger entries; obtaining financial institution confirmation and looking into the TDCC passbook provided by our client; checking the closing market prices of each financial asset on the balance sheet date on the TWSE website, with a view to assess the appropriateness of the amounts recognized at the end of the year. We checked passbooks and bank statements in order to assess the reasonableness of the cash flow from the transaction of financial assets. In addition, for the assessment of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, we obtained from management the appraisal reports about the fair values of the underlying financial assets which were appraised by external experts. Moreover, for the valuation of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income in unlisted companies, we conducted a stock share count at the end of the year and obtained bank confirmations, in order to ascertain their existence.

  1. The fair values of net assets of subsidiaries acquired

Please refer to note 4(t), “Business combination” for the accounting policies for the fair value of net assets of subsidiaries acquired, note 5 “Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty” for estimation and assumption uncertainty, and note 6(f) “Business combination” for related disclosure.

Description of the key audit matter

In 2020, the Group acquired 82.13% equity interest in North Bay Recreation Co., Ltd. (“North Bay”). With more than 50 percent equity interest held, the Group gained control over North Bay and made it a subsidiary. Under the IFRSs No. 3 "Business Combinations “, the Group is required to determine the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of North Bay at the date of acquisition. As the amount of such acquisition transaction is significant and the fair value of its net assets at the date of acquisition involves accounting estimates, failure to present the amount appropriately would result in misrepresentation of the financial statements. Therefore, this account was determined to have material impact on the financial statements.

How the matter was addressed in our audit

For the purchase price allocation report issued by the independent expert appointed by the Group, the audit procedures performed among others include: Evaluating related experience, competence, and reputation of the independent professional appraiser appointed by management with the appraiser’s objectivity taken into consideration; interviewing the appraiser to ascertain the scope and approaches adopted were in conformity with evaluation standards and industry specifications. Our internal specialist probed into the document related to the purchase price allocation report, and the reasonableness of the evaluation methodology adopted, with a view to ascertaining whether the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquired company was appropriate.

3. Revenue Recognition of Construction Contract

Refer to note 4(q) “Revenue from contracts with customers” for the accounting policies for revenue recognition, note 5 “Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty”, and 6(q) “Revenue from contracts with customers” for the detail of revenue recognition during the year.

Description of the key audit matter

The major business activities of the Group include construction contracts entered into with clients, contributing a significant proportion to operating revenue. Since the revenue from construction contracts is recognized by the percentage of completion method during the contract period, and the revenue recognition involves significant accounting estimates such as estimated total cost of work, completion level, and variable consideration.

When determining transaction price, consideration, which may change due to discounts, rebates, penalties, or other similar items, shall be taken into account. Besides, the extent of completion is calculated based on the percentage of the cost arising from each contract of the estimated total cost of that construction contract as of the reporting date. Moreover, both the aforesaid changes in consideration and the estimated total cost involving accounting estimate give rise to uncertainty and impact the recognition of revenue from construction contracts. Accordingly, the recognition of the profit or loss on construction contracts was identified as a matter of importance in our audit of the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Our audit procedures in this area included, among others: Testing the internal control of the timing and accuracy of the recognition of revenue and costs to ascertain its effectiveness; sampling significant contracts and interviewing management so as to understand the specific terms and risks of each construction contract; testing the evaluation document and procedure taken by management to evaluate total estimated costs, completion of construction, profitability of contracts, and variable consideration; checking the procedure of construction estimation, as well as juxtaposing and reconciling the estimates with the general ledger, and assessing whether the recognition of revenue and cost of construction contracts was consistent with pertinent accounting standards.

Other Matter

Long Bon International Co., Ltd. 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 unmodified 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 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 has no realistic alternative but to do so.

’ Those charged with governance (including the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Group s financial reporting process.

AuditorsResponsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole, are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Assess for purposes of identifying 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. 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 determine 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.

  5. 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.

  6. Obtain sufficient and 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.

17

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 Shu-Ying Chang and Mei-Pin Wu.

Parent Company Only Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2020

Independent AuditorsReport

To the Board of Directors of Long Bon International Co., Ltd.:

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Long Bon International Co., Ltd.(“the Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the 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 of 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. Acquisition, disposal and evaluation of financial assets

Refer to Note 4(f) “Financial instruments”, 6(b) and (c) “ Financial Assets” to the parent company only financial statements for the accounting policy and the details of the information.

25

Description of the key audit matter

The carrying amounts of ”financial assets at fair value through profit or loss”and ”financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income” constitute 33% of total assets of the Company, which is significant for the financial statements as a whole. In addition, the Company’s recognized financial assets were evaluated at fair value. As for equity investment in unlisted companies, the fair value was obtained based on valuation technique or the quotation of the counterparty, and was recognized as "financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income". Since the valuation result of financial assets involves the financial restriction clause of financial institutions loan agreement for financing, it further impacts working capital management. Therefore, the acquisition, disposal of financial assets and the testing of end of period valuation were determined to be a critical matter in our audit of Company’s consolidated financial reports.

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Our main audit procedures for the above key audit matter include testing of the relevant control of acquisition, disposal, valuation, and accounting in the investment cycle; sampling the acquisition and disposal of financial assets, and checking relevant documents; reviewing as well as adjusting the PSI table and general ledger entries; obtaining financial institution confirmation and looking into the TDCC passbook provided by our client; checking the closing market prices of each financial asset on the balance sheet date on the TWSE website, with a view to assess the appropriateness of the amounts recognized at the end of the year. We checked passbooks and bank statements in order to assess the reasonableness of the cash flow from the transaction of financial assets. In addition, for the assessment of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, we obtained from management the appraisal reports about the fair values of the underlying financial assets which were appraised by external experts. Moreover, for the valuation of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income in unlisted companies, we conducted a stock share count at the end of the year and obtained bank confirmations, in order to ascertain their existence.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance (including the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Company’ s financial reporting process.

26

AuditorsResponsibilities 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 auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these 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:

  1. Assess for purposes of identifying the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. 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.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the parent company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on the parent company only 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.

27

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 Shu-Ying Chang and Mei-Pin Wu.
