INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
The Board of Directors and Stockholders Lucky Cement Co.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Lucky Cement Co. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, 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 International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FCS) of the Republic of China.
Basis of Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and 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 Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. 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.
- 2 -
The descriptions of the key audit matters of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 are as follows:
Occurrence of Sales Revenue from Key Customers
The Group’s sales revenue mainly comes from sales of cement, stone materials and other cement products. The net sales revenue of the Group in 2021 was lower than in 2020. However, the net sales revenue from key customers had increased compared to previous year, which accounted for 15% of the total sales revenue in 2021. Therefore, we deemed the occurrence of sales as a significant risk and key audit matter.
Refer to Note 4(11) to the consolidated financial statements for accounting policies on revenue recognition and Note 24(1) for the disclosures related to the operating revenue.
Our key audit procedures performed in respect of the above area included the following:
-
We obtained an understanding of the internal control procedures over the sales revenue and assessed the design and effectiveness of the implementation of internal controls.
-
We obtained the summary of sales to the key customers for the year; we tested the completeness of the summary, selected samples from the summary, and examined supporting vouchers, shipping documents, delivery receipts, invoices, etc. and verified the occurrence of sales.
-
We inspected the sales ledger for any significant sales returns and allowances recorded after the balance sheet date and verified that the returns and allowances were related to sales after the balance sheet date.
Other Matter
We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Lucky Cement Co. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, 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 the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC 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.
- 3 -
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with 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 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.
- 4 -
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 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 audits resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Chao-Mei Chen and Chiang-Hsun Chen.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- a. Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs as endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC.
- b. Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value, and net defined benefit liabilities (assets) which are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets.
The fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
-
1) Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
2) Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
-
3) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
-
c. Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
Current assets include:
-
1) Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
2) Assets expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; and
-
3) Cash unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Current liabilities include:
-
1) Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
2) Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period, even if an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long-term basis is completed after the reporting period and before the consolidated financial statements are authorized for issue; and
-
3) Liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.
The Group is also engaged in construction and development of properties; its operating cycle is longer than 1 year. Its assets and liabilities related to the construction business are not classified as current or non-current under normal operating cycle but presented according to the order of their perceived liquidity to non-liquidity.
- 14 -
d. Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company (i.e., its subsidiaries). Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the interests of the Group and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Company.
Refer Note 12 and Note 36(5) for detailed information on subsidiaries (including percentages of ownership and main businesses).
e. Foreign currencies
Transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which they arise.
Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the year except for exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in foreign currencies are not retranslated.
For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of the Company’s foreign operations that are prepared using functional currencies which are different from the currency of the Company are translated into the presentation currency, the New Taiwan dollar, as follows: Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period; and income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting currency translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.
f. Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials, supplies and spare parts, finished goods, work-in-process, merchandise and real estate under development and real estate to be developed and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at the weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date. The construction cost of property inventories is calculated according to the proportion of an area to the total area of a building floor; the
- 15 -
principle is to match construction cost with property sales revenue; operating costs are recognized at the end of the reporting period.
Land for development is classified as real estate to be developed while being prepared for construction, and classified as real estate under development when it is actively being developed and has obtained a construction permit.
- g. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.
Except for freehold land which is not depreciated, the depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recognized using the straight-line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effects of any changes in the estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.
On derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.
- h. Impairment of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use asset
At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment and right-of-use asset to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Corporate assets are allocated to the individual cash-generating units on a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss.
When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the corresponding asset, cash-generating unit or assets related to contract costs is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized on the asset, cash-generating unit or assets related to contract costs in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
i. Non-current assets held for sale
Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the non-current asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition. To meet the criteria for the sale being highly probable, the appropriate level of management must be committed to the sale, and the sale should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within 1 year from the date of classification.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their previous carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Such assets classified as held for sale are not depreciated.
- 16 -
j. Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
1) Financial assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.
- a) Measurement category
Financial assets are classified into the following categories: Financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at amortized cost, and investments in debt instruments and equity instruments at FVTOCI.
- i. Financial asset at FVTPL
Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when such financial assets are mandatorily classified as at FVTPL. Financial assets mandatorily classified as at FVTPL include investments in equity instruments which are not designated as at FVTOCI and debt instruments that do not meet the amortized cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria.
Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss does not incorporate any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 30.
- ii. Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost:
-
i) The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
ii) 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.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost, including cash, financial assets at amortized cost and trade receivables are measured at amortized cost, which equals to gross carrying amount determined by the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.
- 17 -
Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset, except for:
-
i) Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset, for which interest income is calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset; and
-
ii) Financial asset that is not credit-impaired on purchase or origination but has subsequently become credit-impaired, for which interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets in subsequent reporting periods.
A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more of the following events have occurred:
-
i) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower;
-
ii) Breach of contract, such as a default;
-
iii) It is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or undergo a financial reorganization; or
-
iv) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.
-
iii. Investments in debt instruments at FVTOCI
Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at FVTOCI:
-
i) The debt instrument is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both the collecting of contractual cash flows and the selling of such financial assets; and
-
ii) The contractual terms of the debt instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Investments in debt instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Changes in the carrying amounts of these debt instruments relating to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest income calculated using the effective interest method and impairment losses or reversals are recognized in profit or loss. Other changes in the carrying amount of these debt instruments are recognized in other comprehensive income and will be reclassified to profit or loss when the investment is disposed of.
- iv. Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI
On initial recognition, the Group may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation as at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.
Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the equity investments; instead, it will be transferred to retained earnings.
- 18 -
Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Group’s right to receive the dividends is established, unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
b) Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost (including trade receivables) and investments in debt instruments that are measured at FVTOCI.
The Group always recognizes lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) for trade receivables. For all other financial instruments, the Group recognizes lifetime ECLs when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If, on the other hand, the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs.
Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Lifetime ECLs represent the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECLs represent the portion of lifetime ECLs that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
For internal credit risk management purposes, the Group determines that the following situations indicate that a financial asset is in default (without taking into account any collateral held by the Group):
-
i. Internal or external information shows that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors.
-
ii. When a financial asset is more than 181 days past due unless the Group has reasonable and corroborative information to support a more lagged default criterion.
The Group recognizes impairment loss or reversal of impairment loss in profit or loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account, except for investments in debt instruments that are measured at FVTOCI, for which the loss allowance is recognized in other comprehensive income and does not reduce the carrying amount of the financial asset.
- c) Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.
On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of an investment in a debt instrument at FVTOCI, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss which had been recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss. However, on derecognition of an investment in an equity instrument at FVTOCI, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss, and the cumulative gain or loss which had been recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred directly to retained earnings, without recycling through profit or loss.
- 19 -
2) Financial liabilities
- a) Subsequent measurement
All financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
- b) Derecognition of financial liabilities
The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.
- k. Revenue recognition
The Group identifies the contract with the customers, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizes revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.
Revenue from sale of goods
Revenue from sale of goods comes from sales of cement, stone materials and other cement products. Sales of cement, stone materials and other cement products are recognized as revenue when the goods are shipped because it is the time when the customer has full discretion over the manner of distribution and price to sell the goods, has the primary responsibility for sales to future customers and bears the risks of obsolescence. Trade receivables are recognized concurrently.
- l. Leasing
At the inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
- 1) The Group as lessor
Lease payments from operating leases are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the relevant leases.
- 2) The Group as lessee
The Group recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of a lease, except for short-term leases and low-value asset leases accounted for applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost. Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease terms.
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in a lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate.
- 20 -
Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease terms. When there is a change in a lease term or a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use-assets. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero, any remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets.
m. Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to an acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
Other than those stated above, all other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
-
n. Employee benefits
-
1) Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related services.
2) Retirement benefits
Payments to the benefit plan are recognized as an expense when the employees have rendered service entitling them to the contribution.
Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) under defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service cost (including current service cost and past service cost) and net interest on the net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are recognized as employee benefits expense in the period in which they occur or when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which it occurs. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.
Net defined benefit liabilities (assets) represent the actual deficit (surplus) in the Group’s defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.
- o. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
- 1) Current tax
Income tax payable (recoverable) is based on taxable profit (loss) for the year determined according to the applicable tax laws of each tax jurisdiction.
According to the Income Tax Law in the ROC, an additional tax on unappropriated earnings is provided for in the year the shareholders approve to retain earnings.
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.
- 21 -
2) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences and unused loss carryforwards to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the assets to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liabilities are settled or the assets are realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
- 3) Current tax and deferred tax for the year
Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current tax and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that year or in the year of the revision and future years if the revision affects both current and future years.
The Group did not have critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty that need to be reported.

7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AT FAIR VALUE THROUGH PROFIT OR LOSS
In May 2021, the Group purchased fund beneficiary certificates which were classified as non-current financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The Group decided to settle and distribute its real estate to investors. Because the transfer procedures of the real estate allocated by the Group have not been completed, it was recorded in other non-current assets - prepayments for investment property.

a. Notes receivable
The average credit period of sales of goods was 60-150 days. No interest is charged on notes receivable.

Notes receivable of the Group are not overdue at the date of balance sheet.
b. Trade receivables
The average credit period of sales of goods is 60-150 days. No interest is charged on trade receivables.

customer were in severe financial difficulty. The Group recorded a 100% of loss allowance when there is evidence indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery; If the customer were not in severe financial difficulty, as the Group’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision for loss allowance based on past due status is not further distinguished according to the Group’s different customer base.
The Group writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery. For trade receivables that have been written off, the Group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in profit or loss.

21. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
a. Defined contribution plans
The Company, Dasheng Enterprise, Luckicon Ready-mixed Co., Luckyship Co, and Fuyu Development Co., Ltd. adopted the pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (LPA), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, the entities make monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.
The employees of the Group in Japan are members of the retirement benefits program operated by the government of Japan. The subsidiary must allocate a specific percentage of salary costs to the retirement benefit plan to provide funding for the plan. The Group’s obligation for this government-operated retirement benefit plan is only to allocate a specific amount.

b. Defined benefit plans
The defined benefit plans adopted by the Company, Dasheng Enterprise, and Luckicon Ready-mixed Co. in accordance with the Labor Standards Act is operated by the government of the ROC. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the 6 months before retirement. The Company, Dasheng Enterprise, and Luckicon Ready-mixed Co. contribute amounts equal to 2% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee’s name. Before the end of each year, the Group assesses the balance in the pension fund. If the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Group is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor (the “Bureau”); the Group has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.
Since August 2021, the subsidiary, Dasheng Enterprise, had no employees under labor pension system of the Labor Standards Act.
The amount of the Group’s defined benefit plan is included in the balance sheets as follows:
| Present value of funded defined benefit obligation Fair value of plan assets Net defined benefit liabilities |

An analysis by function of the amounts recognized in profit or loss in respect of the defined benefit plan is as follows:
Operating costs Selling and marketing expenses General and administrative expenses |
For the Year Ended December 31 | For the Year Ended December 31 | For the Year Ended December 31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 $ 984 153 206 $ 1,343 |
2020 $ 1,436 179 226 $ 1,841 |
Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Act, the Group is exposed to the following risks:
-
1) Investment risk: The plan assets are invested in domestic and foreign equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets shall not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
-
2) Interest risk: A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plans’ debt investments.
-
3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated using the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salaries of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.
-
38 -
The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The significant assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations are as follows:
| Discount rate Expected rate of salary increase |
**December 31 ** |
|---|---|
| 2021 2020 0.625% 0.375% 1.250% 1.250% |
If possible reasonable changes in each of the significant actuarial assumptions will occur and all other assumptions will remain constant, the present value of the defined benefit obligation will increase (decrease) as follows:
| Discount rate 0.25% increase 0.25% decrease Expected rate of salary increase 0.25% increase 0.25% decrease |
December | 31 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 $ (3,366) $ 3,455 $ 3,374 $ (3,304) |
2020 $ (4,199) $ 4,316 $ 4,202 $ (4,110) |
The above sensitivity analysis may not be representative of the actual changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that changes in assumptions will occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

c. Retained earnings and dividend policy
The Company passed an amendment to its articles of incorporation (“Articles”) on June 12, 2019, which stipulates that the Company shall consider distribution of earnings or appropriation of earnings to a reserve at the end of the first half of the fiscal year or at the end of the fiscal year. The business report and financial statements should be submitted to the audit committee for review, and to the board of directors for resolution.
Under the dividends policy as set forth in the amended Articles, where the Company made a profit in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for paying taxes, offsetting losses of previous years, setting aside as legal reserve 10% of the remaining profit, setting aside or reversing a special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings shall be used by the Company’s board of directors as the basis for proposing a distribution plan, which should be resolved in the shareholders’ meeting for the distribution of dividends and bonuses to shareholders. However, these stipulations shall not apply when the legal reserve amount has reached the authorized capital. The Company should also follow Article 240 of the Company Act in the case of distribution of earnings in the form of shares; in the case of distribution of earnings in cash, the board of directors is authorized to resolve the distribution of cash dividends; the resolution should be adopted by a majority vote in the meeting of the board of directors attended by two-thirds of all the directors, and then reported to the shareholders’ meeting.
According to the Articles, the Company should distribute earnings or appropriate earnings to a reserve based on the financial statements audited or reviewed by an independent accountant.
The Company’s Articles stipulate that in the allocation of annual earnings, the Group shall first appropriate 10% of earnings to legal reserve and then appropriate to special reserve amount to cover deduction items in the equity, payment of business tax and to make up for past annual loss. From the remaining amount after the above allocation plus 40%-80% of unappropriated earnings in the previous year, no distribution will be made if the amount is less than NT$0.1 per share but will be retained in the unappropriated earnings. The board of directors shall propose distribution of dividends and the shareholders in their meeting shall approve the proposal. Refer to Note 25 (8)“employee benefits” for the revised policy on the remuneration of employees and directors.
The appropriation and distribution of earnings and capital surplus as cash dividend or stock dividend shall be subject to the real profit and fund situation in the current year, with consideration of fund for investment and possible dilution of earnings per share. The allocation for stock dividend shall be limited to 20% of the issued stock. In case there is deduction item in equity, the deduction item shall be first offset with earnings or capital surplus before making the appropriation and allocation. When equity deduction item is reversed, the reversed amount shall be allocated to capital surplus. The allocation of capital surplus shall be accounted in the current year and passed in the general meeting of shareholders in the next year.
The Company shall appropriate to or reverse from special reserve pursuant to the provisions set forth in the Letter No. Jin-Kuang-Fa-Tzi No. 1090150022 and “Following the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, questions and answers on special reserve”. When a deduction item in equity is reversed, the reversed amount may be allocated to capital surplus.
Legal reserve shall be appropriated until its balance reaches the gross amount of paid-in capital of the Company. Legal reserve shall be used to offset loss. If there is no loss, legal reserve in excess of 25% of the total paid-in capital may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.
On November 11, 2020, the Company’s board of directors adopted the results of operations for the first half of 2020 and decided not to distribute dividends.

The net profit and the weighted-average number of ordinary shares used to calculate the earnings per share were as follows:
Net Profit
Net profit for the year Earnings Per Share |
For the Year Ended | For the Year Ended | December 31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 2020 $ 262,205 $ 392,269 (In Thousands of Shares) |

- 3) Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 3 fair value measurement
The fair value of privately offered fund is based on the net asset value provided by the fund company.
The asset approach and comparable listed companies approach were used to calculate the fair values of investments in domestic unlisted equity instruments.
The comparable listed companies approach takes into account the transaction prices of shares of listed companies in an active market, the value multiplier implicit in the price, and the liquidity discount when evaluating the fair value of the target company.
The asset approach assesses the total market value of individual assets and individual liabilities of the valuation target and considers the reduction of non-controlling interests and a reduction in liquidity to reflect the overall value of the entity or business.

d. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s major financial instruments include equity and debt investments, trade receivables, trade payables, borrowings and lease liabilities. The Group’s corporate treasury function provides services to the business, coordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, and monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal risk reports that analyze exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
1) Market risk
The Group’s activities exposed it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (1) below) and interest rates (see (2) below).
The exposure to market risk of the financial instruments of the Group and the management and measurement of the exposure have not changed.
a) Foreign currency risk
The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets (including those eliminated on consolidation) at the end of the year are set out in Note 35.
Sensitivity analysis
The Group is mainly exposed to the USD and RMB.
- 54 -
The following table shows the sensitivity analysis of the Group when the exchange rate of the New Taiwan dollar to the relevant foreign currency increases and decreases by 5%. The 5% sensitivity rate is used for reporting currency risk to key management personnel of the Group; the management believes it is the reasonably acceptable range of fluctuation of foreign currency rate. The positive (negative) amounts on the table below indicate an increase (decrease) in pre-tax income and equity amount when the New Taiwan dollar weakens (strengthens) by 5% relative to the relevant currency.
| Profit or loss |
USD Impact For the Year Ended December 31 2021 2020 $ 8,519 $ (329) |
RMB Impact |
|---|---|---|
| For the Year Ended December 31 |
||
| 2021 2020 $ (364) $ (359) |
The above analysis included cash in banks, financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at amortized cost, financial assets at FVTOCI and bank loans denominated in USD and RMB which are outstanding at the end of the reporting period.
b) Interest rate risk
The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the year were as follows:
Cash flow interest rate risk Financial assets Financial liabilities Sensitivity analysis |
December 31 |
|---|---|
| 2021 2020 $ 479,040 $ 456,409 2,366,783 1,917,588 |
The following sensitivity analysis shows the effect of 25 basis points change in interest rates of non-derivative instruments at the balance sheet date. A 25-basis-point sensitivity is used in internal reports to key management personnel; it represents the reasonably possible change in interest rates acceptable to the management.
Had interest rates increased/decreased by 25 basis points, the profit before tax in 2021 and 2020 would have decreased/increased by $4,719 thousand and $3,653 thousand, respectively, with all other variables held constant; the non-derivative instruments include floating rate loan, demand deposit and restricted asset.
2) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. At the end of the year, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk, which would cause a financial loss to the Group due to the failure of the counterparty to discharge its obligation and due to the financial guarantees provided by the Group, could be equal to the total assets shown on the balance sheets.
The policy of the Group is to only trade with counterparties with high reputation, and to require sufficient guarantee to reduce the financial loss from default. The Group transacts with a large number of unrelated customers and thus, credit risk is not highly concentrated.
- 55 -
3) Liquidity risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash deemed adequate to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.
The Group relies on bank borrowings as a significant source of liquidity. The Group had available unutilized short-term bank loan facilities set out in (b) below.
a) Liquidity and interest rate risk table
The following table details the Group’s remaining contractual maturities for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed upon repayment periods. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities from the earliest date on which the Group is required to pay.
