CPA's Audit Report, Individual Financial Statements and Consolidated Financial Statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Merry Electronics Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of Merry Electronics Co., Ltd. (the "Company") as at December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, 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, 2019 and 2018, 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 audits in accordance with the "Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants" and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Independent Accountant's Responsibilities for the Audit of Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the 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 for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, 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

36

(Note This English translation is provided for reference only and might not reflect exactly the meaning and full text of the original language)

only financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon; we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

The key audit matters in relation to the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 are outlined as follows: Cut-off on sales revenue from distribution warehouses

Description

Refer to Note 4(30) for accounting policy on revenue recognition.

The Company recognises revenue upon delivery or pick-up of goods (the transfer of control of ownership) by customers at the warehouses. Warehouse sales revenue constitutes 39% of total operating revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company's revenue recognition is based on inventory movement records of warehouses based on the reports provided by warehouse custodians or bill of lading reports recorded on network platform. As the hubs are located in various locations and there are numerous custodians, the frequency and contents of statements provided by custodians vary, and customers are from different places, the process of revenue recognition contains numerous manual procedures, which would potentially result in inaccurate timing of revenue recognition and the discrepancy between physical inventory quantities in the hubs and quantities per accounting records. Thus, we consider the cut-off on sales revenue from distribution warehouses a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures in relation to the above key audit matter: A. Understood evaluated and verified the Company's procedures for warehouse sales revenue and internal control, including:

(a) Interviewing the staff from different departments of the sales revenue process from distribution warehouse, and confirming the consistency by comparing interview results with the process of warehouse sales revenue recognition obtained.

(b) Verifying the internal control of warehouse distribution (checked the terms of transaction / timing of ownership transfer and dates of supporting documents and verifying transactions recognised in the appropriate period by reconciling the quantities of supporting documents with invoices) to confirm the accuracy of the timing of revenue recognition.

B. Performed cut-off procedures on sales revenue from distribution warehouse recognised during a specific period before and after the period-end, including verifying delivery

37

(Note This English translation is provided for reference only and might not reflect exactly the meaning and full text of the original language)

schedule of distribution warehouses and ensuring the movements of inventories contained in the statements and cost of goods sold had been recognised in the appropriate period.

C. Performed physical inventory count observation or confirmed the inventory quantities with hub custodian and agreed the results to accounting records.

Investments accounted for using equity method - valuation of inventories

Description

The Company receives orders from customers and the subsidiaries are tasked to manufacture the products. The subsidiaries (shown as investments accounted for using equity method) have a high risk of incurring inventory valuation loss and obsolescence due to fluctuations in market demand and rapidly evolving technology. Further, the measurement of net realisable value of inventories involves subjective judgement resulting in a high degree of estimation uncertainty. Thus, we consider the allowance for inventory valuation loss of the subsidiaries (shown as investments accounted for using equity method) a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures in relation to the above key audit matter: A. Understood and assessed the reasonableness of the subsequent inventory valuation and the provision for loss on obsolete and slow-moving inventory.

B. Inspected the annual plan of the physical inventory count and observed the inventory count; evaluated the effectiveness of the procedures used to identify and control obsolete inventories.

C. Obtained inventory aging report and verified dates of movements with supporting documents, and ensured the accuracy of inventory aging classification and its consistency with the policies.

D. Obtained the net realisable value of each kind of inventory and checked whether the applied calculation logic was in agreement with all inventory, tested the supporting documents related to the estimation basis for net realisable value of inventories including verifying the supporting documents of sales and purchase prices, as well as recalculating and assessing the reasonableness of allowance for inventory valuation losses.

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

38

(Note This English translation is provided for reference only and might not reflect exactly the meaning and full text of the original language)

company only financial statements in accordance with the "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 independent directors and supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Independent accountant'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 ROC GAAS 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 ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

A. Identify and assess 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.

B. 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.

39

(Note This English translation is provided for reference only and might not reflect exactly the meaning and full text of the original language)

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

D. 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 auditor's 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 auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

E. 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.

F. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company 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.

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 auditor's 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.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Merry Electronics Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Merry Electronics Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as at December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2019 and 2018, 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 the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the 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 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 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, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

48

(Note This English translation is provided for reference only and might not reflect exactly the meaning and full text of the original language)

The key audit matters in relation to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 are outlined as follows: Cut-off on sales revenue from distribution warehouses

Description

Refer to Note 4(31) for accounting policy on revenue recognition.

The Group recognises revenue upon delivery or pick-up of goods (the transfer of control of ownership) by customers at the warehouses. Warehouse sales revenue constitutes 32% of total operating revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Group’s revenue recognition is based on inventory movement records of warehouses based on the reports provided by warehouse custodians or bill of lading reports recorded on network platform. As the hubs are located in various locations and there are numerous custodians, the frequency and contents of statements provided by custodians vary, and customers are from different places, the process of revenue recognition contains numerous manual procedures, which would potentially result in inaccurate timing of revenue recognition and the discrepancy between physical inventory quantities in the hubs and quantities per accounting records. Thus, we consider the cut-off on sales revenue from distribution warehouses a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures in relation to the above key audit matter:

  • A. Understood, evaluated and verified the Group’s procedures for warehouse sales revenue and internal control, including:

  • (a) Interviewing the staff from different departments of the sales revenue process from distribution warehouse, and confirming the consistency by comparing interview results with the process of warehouse sales revenue recognition obtained.

  • (b) Verifying the internal control of warehouse distribution (checked the terms of transaction / timing of ownership transfer and dates of supporting documents and verifying transactions recognised in the appropriate period by reconciling the quantities of supporting documents with invoices) to confirm the accuracy of the timing of revenue recognition.

  • B. Performed cut-off procedures on sales revenue from distribution warehouses recognised during a specific period before and after the period-end, including verifying delivery schedule of distribution warehouses and ensuring the movements of inventories contained in the statements and cost of goods sold had been recognised in the appropriate period;

  • C. Performed physical inventory count observation or confirmed the inventory quantities with hub custodian and agreed the results to accounting records.

49

(Note This English translation is provided for reference only and might not reflect exactly the meaning and full text of the original language)

Valuation of inventories

Description

Refer to Note 4(12) for accounting policies on inventory valuation, Note 5(1) for significant accounting estimates and assumptions related to inventory valuation, and Note 6(6) for details of allowance for inventory valuation losses. As of December 31, 2019, the balances of inventories and allowance for inventory valuation losses were NT$2,300,204 thousand and NT$182,672 thousand, respectively.

The Group has a high risk of incurring inventory valuation loss or obsolescence due to fluctuations in market demand and rapidly evolving technology. Further, the measurement of net realisable value of inventories involves subjective judgement resulting in a high degree of estimation uncertainty. Thus, we consider the allowance for inventory valuation loss a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures in relation to the above key audit matter:

  • A. Understood and assessed the reasonableness of the subsequent inventory valuation and the provision for loss on obsolete and slow-moving inventory.

  • B. Inspected the annual plan of the physical inventory count and observed the inventory count; evaluated the effectiveness of the procedures used to identify and control obsolete inventories.

  • C. Obtained inventory aging report and verified dates of movements with supporting documents, and ensured the accuracy of inventory aging classification and its consistency with the policies.

  • D. Obtained the net realisable value of each kind of inventory and checked whether the applied calculation logic was in agreement with all inventory, tested the supporting documents related to the estimation basis for net realisable value of inventories including verifying the supporting documents of sales and purchase prices, as well as recalculating and assessing the reasonableness of allowance for inventory valuation losses.

Other matter - parent company only financial reports

We have audited and expressed an unqualified opinion on the parent company only financial statements of Merry Electronics Co., Ltd. as at and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

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

50

(Note This English translation is provided for reference only and might not reflect exactly the meaning and full text of the original language)

Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, 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 independent directors and 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 ROC GAAS 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 ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

A. 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.

B. 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.

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

D. 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

51

(Note This English translation is provided for reference only and might not reflect exactly the meaning and full text of the original language)

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 auditor’s 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 auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

E. 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.

F. 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.

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 auditor’s 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.
