The research and development expenses invested in 2021 accounted for approximately 2.70% of the consolidated revenue.

2021 was the inaugural year for the company to assemble various resources to invest in disclosing ESG efforts. In terms of sustainable development, the company strategizes on focusing on green products, which includes:

  • (1) Investment in environmental friendly products, including manufactured solvent-free or water-based products that contain reduced amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOC). Currently, 75% to 80% of the company’s footwear adhesives products are low-VOC or zero-VOC.

  • (2) Development of high-performance products that contribute positively to the environment, such as plastic free paper coating, used in recyclable and reusable paper cups and paper containers. The company has also developed insulating glass sealant, which can be resistant to sunlight, extreme weather, and moisture, and improve energy efficiency for buildings.

  • (3) Development of bio-based and recyclable materials to reduce reliance on fossil fuel raw materials and lower carbon emissions. For example, the company has developed PU and EVA foam with bio-based materials to replace synthetic foam, and bio-based hot melt adhesives used for paper labels lamination on metal cans.

  • (4) Currently, environmental-friendly products account for 63% of the company’s total product output. In the next few years, the company will increase investment in research and development of green products, strive to develop a low-carbon environment, and continue to pursue sustainable growth.

  3. (2) Reinforcement of ESG: In response to international development trends, ESG strategies are being formulated with the goal of promoting energy conservation and carbon reduction and recognizing how to combat climate change. The disclosure of ESG information will also be strengthened to respond to investors' concerns and enhance sustainable competitiveness between enterprises.

  1. Expected sales volume and its basis

    • The company's sales plan is determined based on contracts, historical sales records and market changes. It is expected that the business target in 2022 will maintain stable growth.
  2. Important Production and Marketing Strategies

    • (1) Focusing on industries with high growth opportunities

      • In terms of the adhesive business, the company will continue to focus on the development of footwear-related chemicals, and will concentrate on the product lines with sizeable addressable markets and growth opportunities, including textiles, non-woven, pressure-sensitive adhesives, woodworking, and food packaging adhesives.
    • (2) Green products and green industry opportunities The company will continue to develop and promote more environmental-friendly products and take advantage of the opportunities in the green industry under the popular trends of sustainable growth, circular economy, and low carbon emissions.

The company will expand the application of carbon fiber composite materials, and develop a diversified product range, catering to the needs of customers in various industries.
  3. III. The impacts of future developing policies from external competition, legal and macroeconomics

External Competition, Legal Environmental, and Macroeconomical Impact on Future Development Policies

Observing the recent international economic situation, the rapid spread of the new variant, Omicron, around the world bring these epidemic challenges: labor shortages, disrupted supply chains and rising inflation pressures. Looking forward, the global epidemic situation will continue to remain a headline, but with the gradual increase in virus screenings and vaccine coverage, the number of severe cases and deaths has dropped sharply. Therefore, major countries will slowly ease on the strict epidemic prevention measures and the global economy is expected to maintain a steady pace of recovery.

-8-

For the future development of the world, it is expected that the supply and demand of the industry will return to a relatively stable state. We will seize the opportunity by accelerating our core technological innovation capabilities and sound financial constitution. Through accumulation of corporate competitiveness, we will strive to implement corporate governance, risk management, and sustainable operations to create sustainable value for all stakeholders.

Due to the uncertainty brought by the development of the epidemic to the overall economy, the company will continue to strengthen its fundamentals, adhere to the highest guiding principles of “leading, integrity, teamwork, and efficiency” for business development, and deepen the company's competitive advantages of “quality first, leading technology, and service oriented”. The company will always pay close attention to domestic and foreign policy development trends and changes in regulations to minimize the adverse impact of external environmental factors. The utmost priority is to maintain operating growth and stable profit performance in order to reward shareholders for their support to the company.

Attachment 3

(1) Consolidated Financial Statements INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Nan Pao Resins Chemical Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Nan Pao Resins Chemical Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (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 and based on our and other independent auditors’ reports (see Other Matter paragraph), 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 (FSC) of the Republic of China (ROC).

Basis for 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. Based on our and other independent auditors’ reports, 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.

The key audit matter of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 is detailed as follows:

-11-

Authenticity of Revenue Recognition

As stated in Notes 4 (o) and 27 the Group’s main source of revenue is revenue from the sale of adhesives, coatings, and construction material. Revenue from sale of goods of adhesives department represented approximately 70% of the total operating revenue. We considered the materiality of this to the consolidated financial statements as well as the regulations in the auditing standards regarding the presumed significant risk in revenue recognition, and thus deemed the authenticity of revenue recognition of the customers of adhesives department as a key audit matter.

  1. We understood the design of the internal controls related to revenue recognition and tested on a sample basis its operating effectiveness.

  2. We selected appropriate samples from the sales receipts of the customers mentioned above, and inspected the sales orders signed by external parties based on the revenue recognition terms, commercial invoices, bill of lading and collections of this customers to check whether the sales actually occurred, and also confirmed whether the transaction counterparty to the sale was the same as the counterparty receiving payment.

Other Matters

Among the subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements of the Group, the financial statements of some of the subsidiaries were not audited by us, but were audited by other auditors. Thus, our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts and related information included for these subsidiaries, is based solely on the report of other auditors. The total assets of these subsidiaries amounted to NT$3,748,491 thousand and NT$2,942,030 thousand as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, accounting for 14% and 15% of total consolidated assets, respectively. Net sales revenue was NT$3,425,709 thousand and NT$2,285,742 thousand, respectively, accounting for 19% and 15% of the consolidated net sales revenue, respectively.

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Nan Pao Resins Chemical Co., Ltd. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 on which we have issued an unmodified opinion with other matter paragraph.

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 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.

-12-

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 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 the auditing standards generally accepted in the ROC, 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 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.

-13-

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 matter 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 audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Hung-Ju Liao and Chi-Chen Lee.

(2) Individual Financial Statements

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Nan Pao Resins Chemical Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Nan Pao Resins Chemical Co., Ltd. (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the standalone financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).

In our opinion and based on our and other independent auditors’ reports (see Other Matter paragraph), the accompanying standalone financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the standalone financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and its financial performance and its standalone 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 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 Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company 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. Based on our and other independent auditors’ reports, 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 standalone financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

The key audit matter of the Company’s standalone financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 is detailed as follows:

-21-

Authenticity of Revenue Recognition

As stated in Notes 4(n) and 25 the Company’s main source of revenue is revenue from the sale of adhesives, coatings, and construction material. Revenue from sale of goods of adhesives department represented approximately 80% of the total operating revenue. We considered the materiality of this to the standalone financial statements as well as the regulations in the auditing standards regarding the presumed significant risk in revenue recognition, and thus deemed the authenticity of revenue recognition of the aforementioned products as a key audit matter.

The key audit procedures performed with respect to the aforementioned key audit matter are as follows:

  1. We understood the design of the internal controls related to revenue recognition and tested on a sample basis its operating effectiveness.

  2. We selected appropriate samples from the sales receipts of the customers mentioned above, and inspected the sales orders signed by the customers based on the revenue recognition terms, commercial invoices, bill of lading and collections of this customers to check whether the sales actually occurred, and also confirmed whether the transaction counterparty to the sale was the same as the counterparty receiving payment.

Other Matters

Among the standalone financial statements of the Company, the standalone financial statements of some of the invested companies in using equity method were not audited by us, but were audited by other auditors. Thus, our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts and related information, is based solely on the report of other auditors. The total amount of investment accounted for using the equity method amounted to NT$1,295,650 thousand and NT$1,038,776 thousand as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and both accounting for 6% and 7% of total assets, respectively. The comprehensive income in using equity method was NT$59,100 thousand and NT$18,408 thousand as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, accounting for 1.0% and 1.5% of total comprehensive income, respectively.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the standalone 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 standalone financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the standalone 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.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone 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

-22-

economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.

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

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone 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 standalone 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 standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone 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 entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the standalone 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.

-23-

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matter that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone 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 audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Hung-Ju Liao and Chi-Chen Lee.

  • 5.11.A shareholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share held, except when the shares are restricted shares or are deemed non-voting shares under Article 179, paragraph 2 of the Company Act.

  • 5.11.1. When this Corporation holds a shareholder meeting, it shall adopt exercise of voting rights by electronic means and may adopt exercise of voting rights by correspondence. When voting rights are exercised by correspondence or electronic means, the method of exercise shall be specified in the shareholders meeting notice. A shareholder exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means will be deemed to have attended the meeting in person, but to have waived his/her rights with respect to the extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals of that meeting; it is therefore advisable that this Corporation avoid the submission of extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals.

  • 5.11.2. A shareholder intending to exercise voting rights by correspondence or electronic means under the preceding paragraph shall deliver a written declaration of intent to this Corporation before two days before the date of the shareholders meeting. When duplicate declarations of intent are delivered, the one received earliest shall prevail, except when a declaration is made to cancel the earlier declaration of intent.

  • 5.11.3. After a shareholder has exercised voting rights by correspondence or electronic means, in the event the shareholder intends to attend the shareholders meeting in person, a written declaration of intent to retract the voting rights already exercised under the preceding paragraph shall be made known to this Corporation, by the same means by which the voting rights were exercised, before two business days before the date of the shareholders meeting. If the notice of retraction is submitted after that time, the voting rights already exercised by correspondence or electronic means shall prevail. When a shareholder has exercised voting rights both by correspondence or electronic means and by appointing a proxy to attend a shareholders meeting, the voting rights exercised by the proxy in the meeting shall prevail.

  • 5.11.4. Except as otherwise provided in the Company Act and in this Corporation's articles of incorporation, the passage of a proposal shall require an affirmative vote of a majority of the voting rights represented by the attending shareholders. At the time of a vote, for each proposal, the chair or a person designated by the chair shall first announce the total number of voting rights represented by the attending shareholders, followed by a poll of the shareholders. After the conclusion of the meeting, on the same day it is held, the results for each proposal, based on the numbers of votes for and against and the number of abstentions, shall be entered into the MOPS.

  • 5.11.5. When there is an amendment or an alternative to a proposal, the chair shall present the amended or alternative proposal together with the original proposal and decide the order in which they will be put to a vote. When any one among them is passed, the other proposals will then be deemed rejected, and no further voting shall be required.

  • 5.11.6. Vote monitoring and counting personnel for the voting on a proposal shall be appointed by the chair, provided that all monitoring personnel shall be shareholders

  • 5.11.7. Vote counting for shareholders meeting proposals or elections shall be conducted in public at the place of the shareholders meeting.

  • 5.12.The election of directors or supervisors at a shareholders meeting shall be held in accordance with the applicable election and appointment rules adopted by this Corporation, and the voting results shall be announced on-site immediately, including the names of those elected as directors and supervisors and the numbers of votes with which they were elected, and the list of unsuccessful directors and the number of voting rights.

  • 5.12.1. The ballots for the election referred to in the preceding paragraph shall be sealed with the signatures of the monitoring personnel and kept in proper custody for at least one year. If, however, a shareholder files a lawsuit pursuant to Article 189 of the Company Act, the ballots shall be retained until the conclusion of the litigation.

  • 5.13.Matters relating to the resolutions of a shareholders meeting shall be recorded in the meeting minutes. The meeting minutes shall be signed or sealed by the chair of the meeting and a copy distributed to each shareholder within 20 days after the conclusion of the meeting. The meeting minutes may be produced and distributed in electronic form.

  • 5.13.1. This Corporation may distribute the meeting minutes of the preceding paragraph by means of a public announcement made through the MOPS.

  • 5.13.2. The meeting minutes shall accurately record the year, month, day, and place of the meeting, the chair's full name, the methods by which resolutions were adopted, and a summary of the deliberations and vote results (including statistical weight), when electing directors and supervisors, the number of votes for each candidate shall be disclosed. The minutes shall be retained for the duration of the existence of this Corporation.

  • 5.14.On the day of a shareholders meeting, this Corporation shall compile in the prescribed format a statistical statement of the number of shares obtained by solicitors through solicitation and the number of shares represented by proxies, and shall make an express disclosure of the same at the place of the shareholders meeting.

  • 5.14.1.

  • 5.15.2. At the place of a shareholders meeting, if a shareholder attempts to speak through any device other than the public address equipment set up by this Corporation, the chair may prevent the shareholder from so doing.

  • 5.15.3. When a shareholder violates the rules of procedure and defies the chair's correction, obstructing the proceedings and refusing to heed calls to stop, the chair may direct the proctors or security personnel to escort the shareholder from the meeting.

  • 5.16.When a meeting is in progress, the chair may announce a break based on time considerations. If a force majeure event occurs, the chair may rule the meeting temporarily suspended and announce a time when, in view of the circumstances, the meeting will be resumed.
