I. Letter to Shareholders

1.1. Business Performance for 2024

In 2024, Nan Ya Plastics Corp. (NPC) recorded a consolidated revenue of NT$259.61 billion, marking a 0.1% decrease from NT$259.75 billion in 2023; and consolidated pre-tax income of NT$4.52 billion, declining by 50.5% compared to NT$9.13 billion in 2023.

In 2024, inflation and high interest rates have slightly eased, coupled with the continued growth in supply chain demand driven by the development of AI. Except for a slight decrease in printed circuit board sales, the Company experienced slight growth in both revenue and profitability from its core business in other product categories. However, adverse factors such as the U.S.-China tech war, geopolitical conflicts, and the real estate issues in Mainland China have hindered the recovery momentum. Additionally, the reduction in recognized investment income has further impacted overall profitability, resulting in unsatisfactory financial performance.

Since its establishment, Nan Ya Plastics Corp. has continuously undergone industrial transformation in response to the development of socio-economic conditions and technological advancements. The Company currently operates in key industries, including plastics processing, chemicals, polyester, and electronic materials.

In terms of plastic processing, advancements in processing technology in recent years have led to the development of new applications, new materials, and eco-friendly products for the medical industry, such as wafer cutting and polishing tapes, automotive interior films, and blood bag and leukocyte reduction filter system. These products have been widely applied across various industries. Simultaneously, the production lines have integrated automated monitoring equipment to enhance machine production efficiency. The Company has also promoted e-commerce and online marketing strategies to expand into high-end and emerging markets with strong potential, achieving stable and sustainable business growth.

Moreover, we took advantage of our decentralized production sites at home and abroad in Taiwan, mainland China, the U.S., and Vietnam. By coordinating production and marketing operations among our plants promptly, we provided satisfactory service and experience to our customers. As a result of our ongoing efforts, we consistently maintain stable profitability in plastic processing products.

In terms of chemical products, in line with vertical integration and division of labor in the Sixth Naphtha Cracking Plant in Mailiao, NPC's products, including ethylene glycol (EG), Bisphenol-A (BPA), 1,4-butylene glycol (1,4BG), plasticizers, phthalic anhydride (PA), 2-ethylhexanol (2EH), and epoxy resin (EPOXY), have been vertically integrated into upstream and downstream industries to form a complete supply chain that supports the development of downstream industries such as polyester, electronics, and plastic processing, respectively.

In 2024, new production capacity in Mainland China was gradually brought online, with output spilling over to overseas regions, leading to increased market competition. In response, the Company flexibly adjusted its production and sales regions, as well as the capacity utilization rates for different products, based on market conditions. Specifically, for ethylene glycol (EG), process optimization was implemented. Additionally, with the market recovering, the Company leveraged the relatively lower raw material costs at its Texas plant in the United States to increase production and sales volume, driving improvements in overall chemical product revenue and profitability.

In the field of polyester products, adhering to an environmentally sustainable business philosophy, we are committed to recycling and regenerating polyester products used by consumers. We have independently developed AI-driven sorting technology, proactively advancing the recycling of fabrics, and launched our polyester recycling brand, "SAYA." Through the optimization of product structures, we are strategically positioning ourselves in the high-value-added product market. In 2024, our revenue saw a slight growth.

2


To facilitate recycling, we have launched single-material products, such as modified polyester pellets used to produce zippers, buttons, and other garment accessories, making the entire garment out of PET material. We also manufacture curtains made entirely of polyester material, which have received an excellent market response. Additionally, we have developed polyester pellets for medical applications, expanding the high-end PET application market. The modified recycled polyester pellets are also used in 3C electronic products, continuously expanding the application of fiber products and increasing the value of recycling and reuse, leading to further growth in our performance.

In the field of electronic materials, demand for consumer electronics remained weak in 2024. However, the rise of AI applications drove an increase in the demand for copper foil substrates and copper foil. Additionally, the market for high-frequency and high-speed materials, including automotive, telecommunications, and server sectors, remained stable, resulting in a strengthening of our operations.

In the future, fields such as generative artificial intelligence (AI), high-performance computing, edge computing, servers, and high-speed switches will continue to grow. Additionally, artificial intelligence will transition from the cloud to the edge, advancing towards the application development of end products (such as AI PCs, AI smartphones, AI robots, etc.), further driving the demand for upstream raw materials.

Electronic materials will focus on the development of high-end materials with high-frequency, high-speed, low dielectric constant, and low coefficient of thermal expansion. NPC leverages its complete upstream and downstream vertical integration advantages, combining both internal and external resources to drive transformation. In addition to enhancing the value and differentiation of existing products, the Company is also advancing the development of materials for high-end telecommunications, AI servers, low earth orbit satellites, wind power, and maritime industries. With stable raw material sources, NPC is well-positioned to meet customers' one-stop purchasing needs, with promising growth prospects.

In the field of circuit boards, Nan Ya Printed Circuit Board Corp. (Nan Ya PCB) has long been deeply involved in the IC carrier board market and has collaborated with customers to launch next-generation high-end server and switch, telecommunications, AI, and high-performance computing chip application boards.

With the rapid development of generative AI, the demand for customized chips and high-speed transmission has increased. Nan Ya PCB has developed large-size, multi-layer IC carrier boards for cloud AI server processors, high-speed switches, and other applications. Nan Ya PCB will also begin mass production of IC carrier boards for high-end PC central processing units (CPUs) and graphics chips, positioning itself to capitalize on the emerging market opportunities for edge AI products.

The reinvested subsidiary, Nan Ya Technology Corp., is dedicated to developing, manufacturing, and selling DRAM products. It is currently advancing its proprietary technology for 10nm process nodes, with the development and mass production of related products (such as DDR5 and beyond) underway.

With the rapid development of AI, the demand for HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) DRAM products will continue to grow. We are actively developing high-density advanced products, including Through-Silicon Via (TSV) processes and multi-chip packaging, along with designs for high-bandwidth products. At the same time, we will strategically invest in and collaborate on the integration of logic-based ICs and HBM DRAM, as well as the development of customized memory solutions. Leveraging our deep process technology development capabilities, we aim to establish long-term competitive advantages.

1.2. Business Strategy for 2025

Looking ahead to the year 2025, the intensifying technological competition between the U.S. and China, coupled with tariff barriers, supply chain restructuring, and geopolitical tensions, presents significant uncertainties for economic development. Additionally, the continuous expansion of petrochemical production capacity in Mainland China, increased competition within the industry, and the imposition of carbon taxes, among other factors, will continue to make operations challenging.

In response to changes in the political, economic, and technological landscape, the Company announced four major transformation strategies in June 2024: ① product transformation, ② business transformation, ③ low-carbon transformation, and ④ digital transformation. Additionally, the Company established the "Sustainable Operations and Development Department" to coordinate resources across the organization and drive business transformation and sustainable development. The key directions for these initiatives include:

  1. Product Transformation: Increase the proportion of high-value and differentiated products, develop new application areas, and expand into new markets.

  1. Business Transformation: Develop new businesses, products, and technologies, seek business transformation, and deepen the Company's industry layout.

  2. Low-Carbon Transformation: Expand green products, focus on energy-saving and carbon reduction, and implement the circular economy.

  3. Digital Transformation: Apply digital technologies, enhance AI applications, and achieve digital transformation to enable intelligent operations.

The four major transformations align with three key industry development trends: high-speed communication and AI innovative application materials, low-carbon and green products, and biotechnology and medical health application materials. The first three fall under industry transformation, while digital transformation focuses on establishing and optimizing a solid and efficient operational foundation for the Company. Overall, the strategy incorporates the concept of sustainable development, allowing for the creation of marketable products that can adapt to industry and technological changes.

In the short term, the Company is undergoing product transformation, focusing on producing differentiated and high-value products, while continuously leveraging the characteristics of existing products to explore new uses and markets. Additionally, in line with industry development trends, the Company is pursuing new business development, new product research and development, and the introduction of new technologies to seek business transformation, such as in medical materials and semiconductor materials.

In addition to product and business transformation, the Company is continuously integrating artificial intelligence into equipment and processes, consolidating various digital data, and developing a digital management platform. This initiative aims to optimize the control of production process conditions, enhance product quality, and reduce raw material and energy consumption. By implementing intelligent management and leveraging big data analysis and automation, the Company seeks to strengthen its competitiveness and improve operational efficiency.

Diversity and Independence of the Board of Directors

1. Diversity of the Board of Directors

The nomination and election of the Board of Directors of the Company complies with Code of Practice for Corporate Governance of the Company and adopted candidate nomination system. Besides the assessment of each candidate's education and experience, the Company takes stakeholders' opinions into consideration and complies with "Rules for Election of Directors of the Company" and "Corporate Governance Principle" to ensure the diversity and independence of the board members.

Besides the knowledge, skills and literacy are necessary for the performance of the Board of Director, to achieve the idol purpose of the corporate governance, the overall abilities of the Board of Directors should include: 1. operational judgment, 2. financial analysis, 3. operation management, 4. crisis management, 5. industrial knowledge, 6. international perspective, 7. leadership, 8. decision-making capacity, etc.

The Board of Director is now composed of 15 Directors, all of them are individuals with specialization (e.g. law, accounting) and experience in industrial management (e.g. petrochemical, finance, technology, textile, etc.), including 3 Independent Directors. The goals are to ensure that at least 50% of the directors have experience across 2 or more industries, and that at least 50% possess professional expertise spanning from AI simulation to digital transformation. Currently, 10 of them have multi-industry experience, and 11 of them demonstrate professional capabilities in AI simulation through to digital transformation, indicating that both goals have been fully achieved.

In addition to exercising professional leadership and decision-making judgment, the Company's directors also possess extensive management experience, diverse industry backgrounds, and specialized knowledge in fields such as finance, accounting, or law, thereby enhancing the independence and diversity in corporate governance.

The Company also places great emphasis on gender equality within the members of Board. Currently, there are 13 male directors (86.7%) and 2 female directors (13.3%). Due to the limited availability of female professionals in the petrochemical industry, the proportion of female directors has not yet reached one-third. The Company will continue to seek qualified female professionals from external fields to serve as the director of the Company. In the short term, the Company aims to increase the number of female directors by one, which would result in female representation reaching 25% if the total number of directors is reduced to 12. As a long-term goal, the Company is targeting a total of four female directors, thereby achieving one-third female representation on the Board.

(2) Social welfare engagement of the enterprise A. The system, measures, and performance of environmental protection, safety, and health: Since its establishment, the Company has always adhered to the philosophy of "industrial development and environmental protection," and pursues social responsibility and sustainable business. Therefore, it attaches great importance to the work of environmental protection. Following this concept, the Company adopts the latest international technology for production processes and environmental protection equipment. For example, when building a power plant more than a decade ago, the Company was the first in the country to insist on the use of closed coal bunkers. Coal dust no longer polluted the air, and BACT is used to make pollution emissions far below domestic and international standards. Although the construction cost increased, the intangible environmental improvement and the reduction of resource waste and cost reduction can be obtained. In addition to selecting the best production processes and environmental protection equipment at the beginning of the planning period, the Company also took into consideration of the integration of upstream, middle, and downstream processes, and recycles the by-products and wastes of the upstream process as raw materials and fuels for the middle and downstream processes by fully integrating and reusing waste gas, waste heat and low-level energy between the plants, make the best use of resources and energy, reduce energy and waste resources, we pursue the goal of achieving an eco-industrial park. For example, the power and steam consumption per unit of product in 2024 years has decreased by 18% and 20% respectively compared with the completion of the Phase 4 expansion in 2007. Future reduction targets will continue to be promoted. The spirit of the Company is to always find out the root cause of any problem, continue to improve, consists in stopping in perfect goodness. Through continuous improvement, the Company will continue to improve the efficiency of equipment operation to reduce energy and resource use and strengthen the competitiveness of sustainable operation. Taking water conservation as an example, from 1999 years to 2024, the sixth naphtha cracker has invested 10.37 billion dollars to complete 3,002 improvement cases, saving 311,500 tons of water per day and the end benefits will be about 1.41 billion dollars per year. The 225 ongoing cases will increase 1.02 billion dollars of investment to achieve the target of saving 14,400 tons of water per day. The total investment is 11.39 billion dollars. In terms of energy conservation and carbon reduction, the sixth naphtha cracker has also invested 34.72 billion dollars, 12,011 improvement cases have been completed, reducing about 14.25 million tons of CO2 and the end benefits will be about 39.03 billion dollars per year. The 1,385 ongoing cases will increase 14.15 billion dollars of investment. It is estimated that an additional 1.95 million tons of CO2 will be reduced, with a total investment of 48.86 billion dollars. The above-mentioned results can be affirmed by the Company awards from 131 business units and commendations from the competent authorities of Ministry of Economic Affairs Water Resources Agency, Industrial Development Bureau, Bureau of Energy, and Ministry of Environment during the 3 last years from 2022 to 2024. In addition to adopting the best international production process, doing environmental protection work such as pollution prevention, clean production, energy conservation, carbon reduction, and water conservation to reach the goal of becoming ecological industrial parks, the Company also follows the trend of the times and pays attention to global warming. In recent years, the Company has promoted tree planting in the plant area. The Company have actively promoted the greening of various factories. At present, the Company have planted nearly 2 million trees and 390,000 square meters of shrubs, which can absorb about 15,000 tons of CO2 per year. Providing a green aerobic environment for employees and nearby residents and taking into account the best of both industrial development and environmental protection. Traditional factories give the impression that there are few green spaces and trees, and even chimneys emit black smoke from time to time, causing air pollution. The direction of the Company's various factories is to change the minds of people to create a green landscape just like the park, and to turn air pollution into a natural landscape.

142


4.1.2.1 Plastic Industry

(a) Industry Overview:

Impacted by geopolitical tensions such as the Middle East conflicts and the Russia-Ukraine war, crude oil prices and the prices of key petrochemical products have experienced significant volatility and downward pressure. In addition, intensified U.S.-China technological competition and the imposition of tariff barriers have driven industrial relocation away from various regions in China. Coupled with the downturn in the real estate market and the collapse of major property developers, the Chinese economy remains sluggish, leading to a substantial decline in demand. Capital has increasingly shifted toward Southeast Asian markets, resulting in a restructuring of regional economies and affecting end-user demand for plastic products.

(b) Industrial Development:

In recent years, manufacturers from China, Southeast Asia, and India have significantly expanded their production capacities, resulting in severe oversupply in the domestic market and product spillover. This has led to intensified price competition. In response to the low-price strategies of competitors from China, Southeast Asia, and India, as well as the volatility of raw material prices, the Company has proactively advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and digital transformation initiatives. Efforts have been made to upgrade both software and hardware systems, aiming to enhance production efficiency and product quality. In line with the global trend toward AI and digitalization, the Company is promoting industrial upgrading and implementing circular economy practices to reduce production costs. In addition, Continuous R&D is being carried out to develop new applications, new materials, and differentiated, high-value-added products that align with environmental trends and meet specialized specifications. These efforts also support expansion into sectors such as medical care, e-sports, and automotive. Existing facilities and production capacities are being consolidated, and automated monitoring systems are being introduced to improve machine efficiency. On the other hand, marketing efforts are being strengthened through multimedia content provided by the Nan Ya Cyber Shopping Mall, along with newly built physical showrooms to integrate online and offline channels and further expand into high-end and emerging markets with strong potential.

(c) Relevance of industry upper stream, middle and lower streams (using film and rubber as an example)

img-0.jpeg

(d) Development Trends and Competitive Situations:

Amid ongoing regional conflicts, fluctuations in raw material prices, high customer inventory levels, and increasing geopolitical tensions, localized sourcing has become a prevailing trend, impacting the development of free trade. In response, the Company has established factories and sales offices in Taiwan, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, and the United States, providing operational flexibility to adapt to changes in the global landscape and ensuring the ability to supply products to customers worldwide. In addition to a stable supply of upstream raw materials from affiliated companies within the Group, we also leverage the exceptional design

4.1.2.2 Chemical Industry (taking ethylene glycol products as an example)

(a) Industry Overview:

In 2024, the global production capacity of ethylene glycol is 59.35 million tons, an increase of $4.9\%$ , and the demand is 39.15 million tons, an increase of $7.5\%$ . Since the production capacity exceeds the demand, the capacity utilization rate drops down to $66.0\%$ . The global capacity requirements for ethylene glycol are as follows:

Itemsthemes Year2022 2023 2024 2025(Estimated)
Global Production Capacity (million tons) 49.82 56.57 59.35 59.87
Global Demand (million tons) 34.06 36.43 39.15 41.00
Capacity Utilization (%) 68.4 64.4 66.0 68.5

(b) Industrial Development:

In 2024, the recovery of global economic growth led to an increase in polyester demand. However, with the continued commissioning of new plants in China (such as Sinochem International advanced materials), the overall ethylene glycol market remained in a state of oversupply.

(c) Correlation between Upstream, Midstream, and Downstream of the Industry

The main raw material of monoethylene glycol (MEG) is ethylene, and the upstream raw materials of ethylene are light oil and crude oil. Therefore, the fluctuation of international oil price will affect the price of raw material ethylene. Monethylene glycol (MEG) and pure terephthalic acid (PTA) are the main raw materials of polyester fiber, which is in turn the raw material of downstream textile products. Therefore, the seasonal demand of the market of textile, yarn and cloth will directly affect the price of ethylene glycol.

img-1.jpeg

(d) Development Trends and Competitive Situations:

It is estimated that the global ethylene glycol production capacity in 2025 will be 59.87 million tons, an increase of $0.9\%$ compared with 2024, and the demand will be 41.00 million tons, an increase of $4.7\%$ . In 2025, the expansion projects of large-scale refining and chemical integrated


plants in China such as Shandong Yulong Petrochemical Industrial Park Development Co., Ltd., Sichuan Wankai Co., Ltd., etc. continue to put into production, the supply of ethylene glycol will continue to increase. It is estimated that China's ethylene glycol imports will fall to 6.30 million tons. Due to the raw material cost advantage of the Company's EG Plant in the United States, it is responsible for export markets outside of Taiwan, while the Mailiao plant enhances its competitiveness through upstream and downstream integration, additionally, the Company passed Indian BIS certification in 2024, further expanding export opportunities and strengthening global market.

4.1.2.3 Electronic material Industry

(a) Industry Overview:

In response to the rapid transmission of large amounts of data, the requirement for high-frequency and high-speed equipment is an important key to the development of electronic materials. The Company has actively deployed in niche products such as high-frequency low-dielectric copper clad laminate, IC substrate, new BMI resin copper clad laminate, high-end automotive copper clad laminate, hydrocarbon copper clad laminate, ultra-fine glass fibers, low-dielectric fiberglass cloth and copper foil for high speed and ultra-high frequency substrate. While AI, 5G and smart electric vehicle continue to develop in 2024, the Company will continue to develop application markets in fast-growing automotive electronics, high-efficiency computing, internet of things and communication network equipment in 2024. Due to the lower technology threshold and the encouragement of China policy, general circuit has many manufacturers, and its price competes fiercely. The same industries often expand their production capacity, through economics of scale reduces their production cost to maintain their profit, causing the whole market oversupply and the average price of general circuit keep dropping. But the network communication application is niche market, its application products have better profit, so it is the target that general circuit suppliers want to cut in. On the other hand, as the sales momentum of smart mobile devices has slowed down and the average selling price has continued to decline, IC substrates for related applications are facing price pressures. Thus, the IC substrate manufacturers act in concert with the trend of terminal market and actively cut in markets with growth potential such as artificial intelligence, high-efficiency computing, 5G network communication and system in package to improve profit.

(b) Industrial Development:

As the global board production focus gradually shifted to China, domestic players have actively integrated cross-strait scale in recent years. The Company has vertically integrated electronic materials plants in Kunshan for electronic materials, including glass fiber, fiberglass cloth, copper foil, epoxy resin, copper foil substrate and circuit board, etc.

In terms of epoxy resin, 2024 was marked by multiple unfavorable factors, including anti-dumping investigations initiated by the United States and the European Union, a rapid expansion of production capacity in China, and the termination of tariff concessions under the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA). These developments led to an imbalance in supply and demand for general-grade products. In response to the rapidly changing market environment, the Company has actively pursued product transformation, accelerating the development and mass production of differentiated new materials for use in high-frequency low-dielectric substrates (HLC), automotive circuit boards, servers, and composite materials. These include alkylated polyphenylene ether, active ester hardeners, bismaleimide, and halogen-free hardeners. Additionally, the Company has obtained customer certifications for high-performance anti-corrosion coatings, increasing the sales proportion of high value-added and high-performance niche products. Efforts are also underway to evaluate adjustments to production lines to shift toward differentiated products, optimize cross-strait production and sales coordination for maximum efficiency, and implement energy-saving and waste-reduction initiatives. The use of bio-based materials is also being promoted to reduce product carbon footprints and support the Company's low-carbon transformation goals.

(c) Correlation between Upstream, Midstream, and Downstream of the Industry

Since printed circuit board is the main carrier for IC packaging and electronic component installation and interconnection, it is an indispensable basic part of all electronic products. Its downstream industries include information technology, communications, networking, optoelectronics, consumer electronics, automotive, precision instruments, medical equipment, aerospace military and various industrial products.

(d) Development Trends and Competitive Situations:

Electronic products use 5G, artificial intelligence, cloud server and smart electric vehicle as the force for future growth, and various printed circuit boards and copper foil substrate manufacturers continue to invest in high-end products. High-end products require corresponding raw materials, such as ultra-fine glass fiber, low-k fiberglass cloth, low-k epoxy resin and low-edge copper foil. The Company has also completed relevant deployments and has better competitiveness in terms of cost, materials and quality. On the other hand, due to the trend of the terminal electronics products of general circuit remain light, thin, short and tiny, the general circuit keeps develop toward multi-layer and fine-line. But the same industries continue to expand their production capacity causing the whole market oversupply and the average price of general circuit was impact. Besides, the smart phone market grew rapidly in the past, many manufactures expanded their HDI production capacity to strive the business opportunities, causing the oversupply of HDI and the price kept dropping. In addition, due to the rapid changes in semiconductor packaging technology, the penetration rate of system-in-package technology used in high-end wearable devices and mobile devices has gradually increased, driving the demand for system-in-package carrier substrates. Moreover, although more and more high-end IC substrates are used in 5G network equipment, computers, servers, artificial intelligence, efficient computing, and automotive electronics, with the continuous and substantial increase in the production capacity of IC substrates in the same industry, the shortage of supply has been significantly eased.

4.1.2.4 Polyester Industry

(a) Industry Overview:

In 2024, market conditions for various products remained sluggish due to weak economic performance and overcapacity in China. Looking ahead to 2025, major sportswear brands are expected to gradually clear their inventories, leading to a normalization of supply and demand. As a result, market demand is projected to grow compared to 2024. On the supply side, the expansion of new polyester production capacity in China slowed in 2024, while most manufacturers continued to operate at relatively high utilization rates. Overall, the market remained in a state of oversupply. However, with easing inflation in the United States boosting consumer spending, and improvements in inventory levels and supply-demand balance in the consumer market, demand for polyester products is expected to increase.

(b) Industrial Development:

The production capacity of polyester is continually growing. The global polyester production capacity was 137.28 million tons in 2024, an increase of $1.34\%$ and the capacity utilization rate was $81.0\%$ which was slightly higher than 2023.

In 2024, the total polyester production capacity in China was 86.34 million tons, in which polyester filament accounted for $58.0\%$ , and the capacity utilization rate was $85.6\%$ . On the


other hand, the polyester production capacity in U.S. was 5.20 million tons, in which PET resin products accounted for $57\%$ , and the capacity utilization rate was $70\%$ . With successful industry-wide inventory reduction, declining interest rates, and easing inflation, demand is expected to gradually recover in 2025. This recovery is anticipated to drive sales of polyester products in segments such as packaging materials, apparel, home furnishings, and carpets.

In 2024, the global PET Film production capacity was 9.06 million tons, 7.25 million tons in China (accounts for $80.0\%$ ), 0.37 million tons in Korea (accounts for $4.1\%$ ), 0.34 million tons in India (accounts for $3.8\%$ ), 0.30 million tons in Japan (accounts for $3.3\%$ ), 0.17 million tons in Taiwan (accounts for $1.7\%$ ), and the global capacity utilization rate was $56.4\%$ .

(c) Correlation between Upstream, Midstream, and Downstream of the Industry

The main raw materials for polyester products are ethylene glycol (MEG) and pure terephthalic acid (PTA). And downstream are categorized by different uses of product, the bottle chips are made into food and beverage packaging materials; the filaments and stable fiber were the raw material of woven, dyed, garments etc. Besides, due to the different functional needs of garments, the Company forms a trend of small quantities and diversification production.

img-1.jpeg

(d) Development Trends and Competitive Situations:

As downstream textile manufacturers in Taiwan continue to shift their production focus to Southeast Asian countries, coupled with Chinese polyester producers maintain high operating rates, inventory levels have increased, leading to severe price cutting and, in some cases, operating losses for major producers. Additionally, ongoing capacity expansions in India and Turkey have contributed to a decline in China's export volume, intensifying competition in its domestic market. In response, the Company continues to develop functional products and upgrade equipment to reduce costs and maximize profitability. A dedicated marketing team has also been established to engage in direct dialogue with global brands.

In light of global trends toward carbon reduction and sustainable development, future carbon neutrality policies are expected to drive producers to develop recycled polyester products. Due to continued global capacity expansion, the PET bottle chip market remains highly competitive. The Company is committed to promoting eco-friendly products and increasing the proportion of differentiated offerings, while actively pursuing brand certifications to avoid oversaturated markets and improve operational performance. To support the growing demand for recycled and sustainable products, and to expand the product portfolio of the South Carolina plant, the Company launched green products, such as fiber with biodegradable technology and recycled bottle chips. These efforts reinforce resource circularity, support sustainable development, and enhance profitability.

In addition, the Company continues to improve the quality of PET Film and Release Film, implement energy-saving and cost-reduction measures, and strengthen collaboration with downstream customers through customized production services. These initiatives aim to enhance customer loyalty, maintain strategic partnerships, and differentiate from Chinese competitors in the market.


4.1.2.5 Electrical and Mechanical Engineering (taking switchboards as an example)

(a) Industry Overview:

Government initiatives to expand infrastructure (such as TPC's construction plan for Enhancing Power Grid Resilience and railway engineering) and accelerate the energy transition (such as establish natural gas power generation, wind power generation, and energy storage), along with the development of semiconductor-related industries and the increase in urban renewal and redevelopment projects have contributed to a stable demand. However, the price of raw materials has risen, resulting in higher costs and fierce price competition between industry peers.

Leveraging the resources of the parent company in Taiwan, the Kunshan plant integrates information flows from the U.S. and Vietnam to develop customized and tailored 3C consumer electronics applications, fine-denier high-quality products, and carbon-neutral offerings—all of which are key focuses for future operations. With the Trump administration advocating increased oil production and relaxed energy exploration policies to curb inflation by lowering fuel prices, the price gap of raw materials between the U.S. and Asia is expected to narrow in 2025. This development is favorable for the South Carolina plant, supporting increased sales of polyester products.

④ Unfavorable factors in the prospect of future development and countermeasures:

The major polyester chemical fiber manufacturers are accelerating the development toward petrochemical refining industry. By mastering upstream raw materials and completing vertical integration, they have relatively competitive advantages, such as large scale and low cost. Taiwan's textile industry is export oriented. In the face of the current fast-changing global competition and the impact of trade agreements such as RCEP, it is necessary to continue to strengthen technology research and development capabilities, produce high value products, optimize manufacturing processes to reduce costs, and make rapid reactions in accordance with market demand changes. Only by responding and improving the product structure can the overall competitiveness of the industry be maintained. In addition to actively developing new products, the Company can also take advantage of production spanning China, U.S., Taiwan and Vietnam, and allocate resources optimally according to market demand, so as to maintain the best competitiveness in the fiercely competitive global market. Geopolitical tensions have led to fluctuations in oil prices and weakened global demand. With the inauguration of a new U.S. president and the rise of trade protectionism—such as increased tariffs and mutual trade barriers among countries—market dynamics are expected to be significantly affected. Under these circumstances, the Kunshan plant must focus on maintaining high production quality while working closely with major brands to meet the demand for high-specification products

and sustain profitability. Meanwhile, the widening U.S. trade deficit has prompted the government to implement protective measures in support of domestic manufacturing. In response, the polyester industry has filed multiple anti-dumping petitions to counter unfair competition from low-priced imports and stabilize the U.S. market.

E. Mechanical and electrical engineering

① Market's future supply status and growth:

Energy transformation continues to be promoted in Taiwan. The Company plans to strive for orders from solar power, wind power, gas power plants, Power Grid Resilience Plan of Taiwan Power and rail transit engineering. In addition, the government encouragement of urban redevelopment and capital expenditures of insurance industries invest in the construction of commercial buildings, are conducive to increasing the demand for switchboards. The cast resin transformers have quality advantages, and large-capacity specifications are advantageously promoted to the Japanese market and new customers in Europe. The subsidiary in China continued to support the expansion projects of FPG Group in China and Vietnam, strengthened after-sales service and developed opportunities of co-operation with Chinese-funded turnkey engineering companies.

② Competitive Niche:

Corporate brand is conducive to the willingness of international manufacturers to cooperate with the Company and fight for the orders together. Through large scale procurement reducing the material cost, shorten the delivery time, make sure the product design and the quality of production process, and integrate enterprise resources to develop differentiated products which are conducive to the promotion of high-end projects.

③ Favorable factors affecting the Company's development prospects:

Cooperate with Japan Takaoka on producing resin cast transformers to improve self-made and mass production capabilities, and significantly reduce the costs and optimize the design projects by using AI technology. Southeast Asian countries are actively carrying out power infrastructure and have great market potential. The parent company has system integration capabilities, which could apply on taking the advantage of tariff-free when importing products from subsidiaries in China to Southeast Asia. At the same time, it would be beneficial for the Company to develop the local markets with overseas investment from the Group. With the opportunity to build a solar power plant by ourselves, the Company could cultivate own technical team and secure the orders.

④ Unfavorable factors in the prospect of future development and countermeasures:

In Taiwan, the region has been affected by labor shortages and inventory adjustments in the electronics industry, leading to a slowdown in demand for switchgear. Rising costs of raw materials have further exacerbated the situation. Additionally, international electrical giants are leveraging their production scale advantages to participate in domestic bidding projects, which has been disadvantageous for winning orders.

Therefore, it is necessary to accelerate the research and development of power monitoring systems and new products, continue to promote process optimization, introduce Advanced Planning and Scheduling system (APS) to achieve smart manufacturing goals and reduce costs. The subsidiary in China has not only developed the expansion orders of Chinese-funded enterprises, but also increased after-sales service orders to maintain the growth of turnover.

(c) Improvement of greenhouse gas reduction

The reduction of greenhouse gases has always been a topic of concern for the Company. In 2006, the Company set up the "Greenhouse Gas Inventory Reduction Group" to comprehensively promote the reduction of greenhouse gas inventory. Moreover, the "Energy Conservation, Carbon Reduction, and Pollution Prevention Promotion Organization" was set up to coordinate water and energy conservation as well as pollution prevention throughout the company. The implementation of the "Greenhouse Gas Inventory Reduction Management Method" and the completion of the "Greenhouse Gas Inventory and Reduction Computer Operation" were carried out in the meantime.

In order to achieve the corporate carbon reduction goal, the company actively promotes four carbon reduction strategies, including low-carbon energy transformation, energy saving and carbon reduction circular economy, increasing the use of renewable energy and the application of carbon capture technology.

(1) Low-carbon energy transformation: Coal-fired boilers in utility plants are replaced by gas-fired boilers, and low-carbon energy sources are used in production plants to replace high-carbon energy sources.

(2) Energy saving and carbon reduction circular economy: Improve energy efficiency and reduce waste generation.

(3) Increasing the use of renewable energy: Solar power generation equipment is established on the roof of each plant building. The total planning construction capacity of the Company and Taiwan subsidiaries is 56,265.97KW. The carbon reduction will be 56,754.64 ton/year by then.

(4) Application of carbon capture technology: Invest in the expansion of electronic-grade and industrial-grade liquid CO₂ plants and recycle all CO₂ generated in the process

For the annual greenhouse gas emissions, the Company and Taiwan subsidiaries conduct an annual greenhouse gas emission inventory in accordance with the ISO14064-1 standard in all Taiwan plant area and entrusted SGS and BSI to verify the annual greenhouse gas emissions. In 2022, the emission of scope 1 was 1,698,397 ton-CO₂e, the emission of Scope 2 was 3,718,060 ton-CO₂e, and the unit emission intensity was 2.41 kilotons of CO₂e/NT$100 million of revenue. In 2023, the emission of scope 1 was 1,455,403 ton-CO₂e, the emission of Scope 2 was 3,028,506 ton-CO₂e, and the unit emission intensity was 2.89 kilotons of CO₂e/NT$100 million of revenue. In 2024, the emission of scope 1 was 2,499,029 ton-CO₂e, the emission of Scope 2 was 4,552,056 ton-CO₂e, and the unit emission intensity was 2.72 kilotons of CO₂e/NT$100 million of revenue.

(d) Air pollution prevention and control measures

The Company continues to promote improvement to reduce pollutants in exhaust gas. Based on the principle of best feasible control technology, the Company plans to set up various prevention equipment systems to treat pollutants in exhaust gas, conduct regular inspection to ensure the discharge concentration of various pollutants can meet the national standards.

The main control measures include self-inspection, equipment component inspection, perimeter air quality inspection, and joint odor inspection. For large-scale emission sources, there are automatic monitoring facilities (CEMS) and chimney surveillance video to perform 24-hour

169


real-time monitoring. In the case of abnormalities, alerts will be issued immediately to alert personnel to improve processing. In addition, for units with higher emissions, continue to promote reduction reviews. For example, the coal-fired boilers that installed in the Linkou plant, Shulin plant and Chiayi plant have been replaced with gas-fired boilers.

Besides cooperate with the environmental impact assessment to implement the control of permitted volume, the Sixth Naptha Cracker plant also established a VOC gas fingerprint database to compare the sampling analysis results from plants and large storage tanks and to master the source of odor and carry out improvement. Moreover, the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR) is equipped to form a plant air pollution safety net for continuous monitor. Furthermore, it is available for mobile use with delivery vehicle.

(e) Water pollution prevention and management measures

In order to comply with the wastewater treatment and discharge management operations, relevant management measures have been formulated in accordance with government regulations, and wastewater reduction operations have been actively promoted. The main measures are as follows:

(1) Implement the wastewater source management: Establish regulations for the operation control and monitoring management of wastewater sources, including the collection, transportation, and pre-treatment facilities for domestic sewage, process, or construction wastewater.
(2) Establish relevant regulations for wastewater treatment processes: Including planning processing facility, rainwater collection and discharge management, emission permit application, operation and reporting record, effluent inspection management and water volume (quality) automatic continuous monitoring operation.
(3) Each plant regularly reviews and reports wastewaters reduction or reuse.
(4) Supervision and review operation includes periodic inspection, water quality inspection, etc. If any abnormalities were found, the Company will immediately put them on record for control and tracking improvement.

For the annual water consumption, the Company and Taiwan subsidiaries entrusted SGS to verify the annual water consumption in all plants. In 2022, the water consumption was 22,129 kilotons, the water intensity was 9.83 kilotons/NT$100 million of revenue. In 2023, the water consumption was 16,999 kilotons, the water intensity was 10.97 kilotons/NT$100 million of revenue. The inventory for 2024 is expected to be completed in July 2025.

(f) Waste management measures

In order to achieve resource sustainability and effectively manage waste disposal, the Company starts from the waste reduction of source as a starting point (including source reduction and production process reuse) and finally consider outsourcing treatment. Besides, we take "recycling→incineration→burying" as the order of adoption and formulate various management measures for wastes classification, storage, clearance and disposal:

(1) Classification and storage after waste production:

Comply with Waste Disposal Act, the Company classifies the general garbage and process waste first and then storing them in containers or collection bins (bags). Storage areas are set up with waterproof (rainproof) facilities, wastewater and odor collection facilities, and signs for management. Storage containers must remain intact and free from rust and leakage.

(2) Waste clearance and disposal:

A waste management computer system has been set up, including the supplier for cleaning up, cleaning project documentation, and online reporting management to ensure that all business wastes are legally reused or cleaned up.

(3) Flow tracking:

Through regular follow-up and visits to the cleaning supplier, the Company can control the waste flow, eliminate secondary pollution caused by illegal disposal. Besides, the Company requires the contractor to cooperate with the online declaration and other

170


regulations by attaching relevant statutory documents (such as proper handling certificate or legal clearing list) to file for cleaning fees.

The total amount of waste in every plant of the Company and Taiwan subsidiaries was disclosed in the ESG report in accordance with the GRI guidelines. The total amount in 2022 was 114,414.1 tons, the total amount in 2023 was 96,045.56 ton and the total amount in 2024 was 108,446.61 tons.

(g) Operational management measures for toxic and concerned chemical substances

Besides the compliance with government regulations, efforts are made to strengthen the prevention and management of leakage of toxic and concerned chemical substances. The main management measures include:

(1) Reduction Management: Through process optimization, improve the operational conversion efficiency to reduce operations or find substitutes to reduce usage and in-plant storage.
(2) The operation or storage process is enclosed, which effectively reduces the possibility of leakage and reduces the risk of the contact and explosion of personnel.
(3) Regular implementation of hazard prevention and response drills: Strengthen disaster response capabilities to reduce disaster risks.
(4) Regular training for professional emergency response personnel: Update emergency response knowledge and ensure the practical capability of professional responders, safeguarding personnel's safety during emergency situations.

5.6 Analysis of Risk Management

5.6.1 Interest rate, foreign exchange rates, and inflation rate changes in the most recent year, up to the publication date of this annual report, that can affect the company's revenue and future response measures:

  1. Interest rate:
    In terms of long-term liabilities under floating interest rate basis (corporate bond included), the Company will carefully assess financial market conditions and consider the implementation of interest rate swap when the interest rate is relatively low to avoid interest rate fluctuation risks. The Company strives to make sure the undertaking interest rate is below the estimated cost of capital of investment plans.

  2. Foreign exchange rates:
    Insufficient foreign exchange funds in daily operations are addressed by making spot or forward foreign exchange purchases when the exchange rate is favorable. Long-term foreign exchange liabilities are addressed by implementing long-term forward foreign exchange contracts or exchange-for-exchange contracts when the exchange rate is relatively low to minimize the impact of exchange rates on profitability.

  3. Inflation Status:
    According to Directorate of Budget, Accounting, and Statistics, Executive Yuan, the annual growth rate of consumer prices in 2024 was 2.18%, exceeding 2% for the third consecutive year. However, the growth rate has slowed compared to the previous year. and the annual growth rate of core consumer prices was 1.88%. This had no significant impact on the Company's profit and loss for 2024. Inflation in the coming year will depend on domestic electricity price adjustments and global political and economic conditions.

5.6.2 Policies to high-risk, high-leveraged investments, lending or endorsement guarantees, and derivative transactions, main causes of gain or loss in the most recent year up to the publication of this annual report, and future response measures:

  1. Investment under high risks and leverage:
    The Company mainly invests in the petrochemical industry, which is a mature and stable industry with low risks. The Company has always maintained stable operations and a sound financial structure. It does not engage in any high-leveraged investment.

  2. Lending of capital:
    In principle, the Company only issues loans to affiliated companies. The amount is in accordance with Article 15 of Company Act and "Procedures for Loaning Funds to Other Parties" of the Company and granted with the approval of the Board of Directors. Since purposes of loans are mostly short-term fund scheduling, and the borrowers are the parent company, subsidiaries, and affiliated companies, no bad debt loss has occurred.

  3. Endorsement guarantees:
    The Company only endorses and guarantees the parent company, subsidiaries, affiliated companies, or invested companies whose endorsement guarantees are made by each shareholder in accordance with its shareholding ration due to joint investment. The endorsement guarantee is mostly for funding guarantee; relevant procedures are handled in accordance with "Procedures for Providing Endorsements and Guarantees to Other Parties" of the Company and granted with the approval of the Board of Directors.

5.6.4 Important domestic and international policy and regulatory environment: changes that has an impact on the company's finances in the most recent year up to the publication of this annual report, and future response measures:

The Company maintains close attention to domestic and international political and economic developments, major policy formulations, and legal changes. When necessary, we arrange for personnel to undergo relevant professional training. From 2024 to February 19, 2025, the major legal changes related to the Company's financial and business operations are as follows:

On August 29, 2024, the Ministry of Environment announced the "Carbon Fee Collection Regulations," the "Self-Reduction Project Management Regulations," and the "Designated Greenhouse Gas Reduction Targets for Carbon Fee Entities." Additionally, on October 21, 2024, the "Carbon Fee Rates" were announced, including a standard rate of NT$ 300 per metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent and preferential rates of NT$ 50 and NT$ 100 per metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent. These regulations will take effect on January 1, 2025. The Company will continue to implement energy-saving and carbon reduction measures to mitigate the impact.

5.6.5 Risks associated with changes in technology (including cyber security risks) and industry in the most recent year up to the publication of this annual report, and future response measures: There is no significant impact on the financial operations of the Company.

5.6.7 Risks associated with mergers and acquisitions in the most recent year up to the publication of this annual report: None.

5.6.8 Risks associated with capacity expansion in the most recent year up to the publication of this annual report: Please refer to “5.4 Major Capital Expenditure Item” of “V. Review of Financial Conditions, Financial Performance, and Risk Management”: None.

5.6.9 Risks associated with sales concentration and purchase in the most recent year up to the publication of this annual report, and future response measures:

  1. Purchase:
    Most of the Company's main raw materials are sourced from the Formosa Plastics Group or the internal vertical integration supply. Therefore, the source, quality, and delivery date are under good control. However, if a company in the group or a division in the Company arranges annual repair or has an equipment failure, it will have to cooperate with the repair schedule or reduce production. In order to respond to customer orders, it is necessary to import raw materials to make up for any shortcoming. If the petrochemical raw materials market is at a high level, there will be the risk of being forced to import high-priced raw materials in order to meet production needs. Fortunately, the Company maintains good relations with major suppliers and diversifies the procurement areas, so the risks are still acceptable by the Company.

  2. Sales:
    In the future, global economic will still be affected by multiple factors like U.S.-China trade war, inflation, lift rates, the fluctuation of oil price, cross-strait relations, etc. The Company will pay close attention to the trend of industrial relocation in order to diversify the sales area, and increases the proportion of direct sales and distributors in other parts of the world. We integrate the resources of domestic and overseas transfer companies and arrange the best production and sales allocation to diversify the risk of sales over-concentrating through taking Taiwan as an operation center. Besides, we enhance overall competitiveness through assistance of e-commerce and online marketing.
