Letter to Shareholders

Shareholders Ms. and Mr.:

I. 2021 Business Report:

(I) The results of implementation of the business plan

In 2021, due to the steady growth of the panel supply, the polarizer industry has also grown synchronously, and the Metaverse and other VR/AR industry themes are fermenting, resulting in a thriving market for polarizers. In addition to stabilizing customers for TFT-LCD polarizers such as TV and Monitor, the company also continues to increase customers for high-margin products such as TN/STN polarizers for industrial computers, automotive dye-based polarizers and iodine-based polarizers to maintain growth. In addition, high-margin products such as polarizers and HUD reflective films for sunglasses and VR/AR products have also been the focus of development in recent years. In 2021, thanks to the efforts of the company's chairman, president and all colleagues, the gross profit reached 24.46%, and the operating profit rate also reached 9.93%, which is really commendable. In terms of non-operating income, rental income decreased from NT$132,336,000 in 2020 to NT$24,452,000 in 2021 due to the disposal of the Plant in Southern Taiwan Science Park. Real estate, plant and equipment impairment reversal benefit of NT$2,869,000, and the Plant in Southern Taiwan Science Park lease contract modification benefit of NT$11,398,000, and exchange benefit of NT$503,000. For non-operating expenses, interest is mostly NT$54,049,000. Losses from disposal of real estate, plant and equipment amounted to NT$7,516,000, and share of losses from subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures recognized using the equity method was NT$24,518,000. To sum up, the net profit before tax in 2021 was NT$834,863,000, and the net profit after tax was NT$809,938,000. Looking forward to the future, the company's management team will continue to uphold the management model and the spirit of perseverance and the pursuit of profit maximization, and will continue to expand the market for polarizer products such as sunglasses, vehicle-mounted products and VR/AR to increase profits. In terms of non-operating income and expenditure, the company has signed a lease contract of Pingzhen No. 2 Factory with a domestic logistics company, and actively repaid bank loans to reduce interest costs to improve financial conditions, and to pursue the company's maximum profit as its goal, in order to live up to the expectations of all shareholders.

In terms of non-operating income and expenditure in 2021, the net income increased by NT$629,795,000 compared with 2020, mainly due to the benefits of disposal of the Plant in Southern Taiwan Science Park by NT$522,291,000, lease modification benefits of NT$11,398,000, and other income-others increased NT$53,908,000.

(III) Status of production and R&D

The development direction is mainly on vehicle-mounted products, VR, sunglasses and cost reduction. Therefore, the part of vehicle-mounted products will focus on improving reliability and viewing angle to meet the increasing reliability requirements of customers; the cost reduction part will target the localization of materials, such as PVA, TAC and PSA materials.

The development direction of each product as follows:

  1. In the development of large-size TV/MNT products, in response to the regular price reduction needs of customers, it is necessary to evaluate cheap materials. In addition, the waterproof materials, such as PET and PMMA will also be aggressively evaluated.

  2. In the application of small and medium-sized, the dye-based polarizers, besides the original industrial control products, such as electricity meters, the automobile instruments and displays have also developed corresponding polarizers. In the vehicle-mounted plarizers, how to improve the reliability (from the original guaranteed 95 degrees to 105 degrees) and how to match the customer panel design to improve the viewing angle to meet the specifications of European OEM5.1 version are the key points of development in the future.

  3. For the sunglasses ploarizers, we will continue to develop new products in response to customer needs.

  4. For the surface self-coated products, mainly made of AG with high unit price and high precision.

II. Future planning

  • (I) The principle of operation and policy of production and sale

  • The principle of stable operation, stable quality and rise yield to reduce costs.

  • Repay long-term and short-term bank loans to reduce interest expenses.

  • Concentrate resources on the development of high-margin polarizer products, such as high weather resistant vehicle-mounted applications and thinner polarizers, as well as polarizers for VR products.

  • Revitalize idle assets, lease and dispose of related equipment in Pingzhen No. 2 Plant.

  • (II) The Company's future strategy of development

  • Develop important clients to increase the company's revenue, such as LCD panel manufacturers in Chinese Mainland.

  • Do not compete in the low-margin market, and strive to muscle for the niche market with high gross profit and high cash inflow.

  • Fully develop polarizers for high weather resistant vehicle-mounted and VR/AR products, in addition to the sunglasses ploarizers.

  • Continue to develop new clients in Taiwan, Chinese Mainland, Japan and South Korea.

Sincerely,

Chairman : Peter Chao

The company's dividend policy is regulated in Articles 20 of the company's articles of association. Its contents are as follows:

The current year’s earnings, if any, shall first be used to pay all taxes and offset prior years’ accumulated losses and then set aside 10% as legal reserve. When such legal reserve amounts to the total paid-in capital, the Company shall not be subject to this requirement. The Company may then appropriate or reverse a certain amount as special reserve according to the relevant regulations. The remaining earnings, plus the accumulated undistributed earnings, may be appropriated to shareholders as dividends or bonuses according to the distribution plan proposed by the Board of Directors and approved by the shareholders’ meeting.

After taking into account of the Company's current and future development plan, investment environment, fund requirements, and domestic and international competition and the interests of shareholders, the dividend policy of the Company is to set aside no less than 50% of distributable earnings as shareholders’ dividends and bonuses. However, in case the accumulated distributable earnings is less than 30% of paid-in capital, the Company may choose not to distribute dividends. Dividends to common shareholder may be distributed by way of combination of cash dividend and stock dividend provided that the cash dividends shall not be less than 10% of the total dividends.

Operational Highlights

Business Content

(1) Business Scope

1. The main content of the business and its operating proportion:

  • The company's business is mainly divided into two parts, one is that the sales proportion of polarizers is 97%. The other part is for the sales of sunglasses, touch controls and related optical materials, accounting for 3% of revenue.

2. The company’s current product (service) projects and planned new products (services): The company currently manufactures and sells important raw material polarizers for LCD/OLED (including TN, STN, TFT, PM-OLED, AM-OLED, etc.), lenses for sunglasses and some touch-related materials. At present, it is planned to cut into the production and sales of more optoelectronic peripheral raw materials products.

(2)Industry Overview

1. Industry status and development

Polarizers are mainly used in liquid crystal displays (Liquid Crystal Display, referred to as LCD), which are upstream components of the LCD industry, and their sales are greatly affected by overall LCD demand.

The above data shows that the applications of liquid crystal displays include business, information, communications, consumer electronics, transportation and entertainment applications, and various types of LCD have different applications under different terminal product specifications. The polarizing plate is the key component of the above three types of LCD. Its function is mainly used to control the polarization direction of specific light waves, so that light can pass or shield, and provide the necessary display characteristics. Because the liquid crystal itself does not have the ability to pass or shield light, and the control function requires the use of a polarizer to achieve related functions, so the polarizer is of great importance to LCD.

Liquid crystal displays (LCDs) take advantage of their small size, light weight, low power consumption, fullplane display and low radiation, from general-purpose electronic products such as watches and computers to high-end electronic product displays such as mobile phones and tablets. Computers, laptops, LCD screens, LCD TVs, etc. are quite high market share.

The investment boom in my country's liquid crystal display industry has continued in recent years. Although the investment in super-twisted liquid crystal displays (STN-LCD) has stopped, a series of eye-catching large-size thin film transistor displays (TFT-LCD) and AM-OLED continues to invest. At present, Taiwan is already the world's TFT-LCD production center, and TN-LCD and STN-LCD are mostly transferred to mainland China due to low prices and profits. In recent years, domestic investment has set off next-generation large-size TFT-LCD and AM-OLED. The upsurge of new technology, and the gradual implementation of independent technology development, coupled with the opening of the panel factory in 2010, the conditional landing of these hundreds of billions of new Taiwan dollars of investment, compared with the semiconductor industry has a tendency to come from behind.

Polarizers are materials required for the production of LCD/OLED, and the LCD industry is divided into TN, STN, OLED industry is divided into two categories: PM-OLED and AM-0LED. Although other flat-panel displays use polarizing plates, their individual application products, production centers, industrial characteristics and production technologies are different. Optimax will position the main marketing markets in Taiwan, mainland China, Japan and South Korea, but it is still regarded as the polarizer supplier with the highest market share in both Taiwan and mainland China is the goal.

3. Industry development trends and competition

  • (1)Product development trend

Polarizers are classified according to their optical functions, which can be divided into general use, high contrast, ultra-high contrast, ultra-high contrast, high durability, color, whitening, IPS and VA polarizers. Recently, product development is trending towards thinness, high transmittance, high resolution and high brightness. To meet the requirements of panel lightweight and environmental protection and energy saving. Polarizing plates are classified according to the production materials, which can be divided into iodine series and dye series. The difference is that the weather resistance of the dye-based polarizer is better than that of the iodine series. Therefore, dye-based polarizers are often used under high temperature conditions such as automotive, industrial control and LCD projectors, but the iodine series is used for the optical properties of polarization and transmittance. Polarizers are better. Therefore, iodine series polarizers are completely used in products that require high optical properties such as notebook computers, desktop PC monitors and LCD TVs. The company's product classification is as follows:

Optical function Generalpurpose High contrast type Ultra-high contrast type
STN/PM-OLED
Category TN Polarizers TFT /AM-OLED Polarizers
Polarizers
Iodine series (I2) Computer, Watch,
Sun glasses, Game
PDAMobile phone Laptops, Smart phones, Digital

(2)Product competition

At present, manufacturers with polarizing plate manufacturing technology, in addition to Japanese, Taiwan and Korean manufacturers, there are Chinese manufacturers. Previously, mainland manufacturers mainly focused on low-end TN/STN/PM-OLED products. Recently, they have accelerated the introduction of TFT/AM-OLED products. , However, the overall market share is still low, and the product quality is still unable to compare with Japanese, Taiwan, and Korean factories. In addition, Taiwan's panel makers continue to invest in nextgeneration panels. Due to the high future growth of the polarizer industry, new players are also attracting new players to actively enter the market, including Taiwanese manufacturers such as BenQ Materials and Chengmei Materials, as well as the establishment of Sumitomo in Tainan. Nitto expands production in Taichung. In addition to the current LCD TV, MNT, NB, Tablet PC. In addition to the development of polarizers for Automobile LCD, Smart Phone, Smart Watch, PM-OLED/AM-OLED and VR/AR, the company also actively expands surface treatment business and products such as precision coating to improve quality stability and reduce costs, and actively expend Japan and Chinese mainland market and improve the service and cooperation with customers, so as to widen the gap with competitors and maintain high competitiveness.

(4) Long-term and short-term business development plans

1. Short-term development plan:

  • (1) Marketing strategy

  • A. Market:

The overall demand for LCD panels in the global economic downturn has no longer experienced substantial growth. The overall strategy has been adjusted to operate in 2022 with high-margin products and a reasonable economic scale. It also demonstrates the optimized cost-effectiveness of centralized production management to increase the value of Optimax in the client.

  • B. Customers:

In addition to continuing to strengthen the relationship with existing customers, it is also actively exploring new customers in the mainland, South Korea, Japan and other regions.

  • C. Product range:

Expanded from TV, Monitor to NB and a full range of small and medium size products, the company also continued to strengthen the preparation of raw film/semi-finished products and finished products to meet the urgent orders of other customers in the market.

  • D. Service:

In order to implement Total Solution, the customer group is divided regionally, and the functions of product developers and marketing personnel are combined to provide full-service nearby and deepgrown customers.

  • (2) Production strategy

    • A. Centralized management of personnel, centralized production of production lines, in order to cope with the poor overall environment: people make the best use of their talents, make the best use of materials, in order to achieve the best production utilization rate and the lowest cost.

    • B. Due to the current surplus production lines caused by the decline in market demand, depending on the actual situation, temporarily stop production to achieve effective management and improve the effective production yield and utilization rate.

  • C. Increase the machine speed, inspect the current production equipment, and improve the equipment availability.

  • (3) Product research and development

    • A. The small and medium size products are mainly niche products, and the vehicle is one of the main forces. The development direction is high reliability and wide viewing angle compensation film. Among them, the high reliability has been improved from the original high temperature of 95°C to 105°C or even 110°C, and the high temperature and high humidity conditions have also been raised from the original 60°C/95%RH to 85°C/85%RH. The wide viewing angle compensation film part, originally required to comply with OEM 5.1, that is, 650 in the A area, but the customer hopes to increase it to more than 750, this part needs to be developed in close cooperation with the customer, especially to obtain the customer's panel, in order to achieve the best contrast and perspective. Currently working with many clients.

    • B. Small and medium size focuses on VR/AR products. In addition to polarizers, other optical films must be used for this part. The lamination process and requirements are different from those of the original display. Although the product size is small, it has extremely high quality requirements, and it is also a new field for Optimax.

    • C. The medium and large size products, such as TV/MNT, have lower profits, so it is necessary to continuously reduce costs. Importing local materials is one of the key points, but there is still a gap between the stability and the Japanese system. Therefore, how to cooperate with suppliers and improve quality is the focus of evaluation. In addition, how to achieve the best utilization rate to enhance competitiveness is also the focus. Therefore, we have introduced a super-wide cutting machine, hoping to increase the utilization rate more flexibly.

2. Long-term plan

  • (1) Marketing strategy

  • A. Strengthen the sales of superior products (high durability, optical films, self-made coating) and adjust the product portfolio to ensure increased profitability and increase product differentiation with competitors.

  • B. Become a professional polarizing plate design and production factory, cooperate with market development, strengthen negotiation with customers, have achieved mutual benefits, profit sharing, and continue to strive for more international cooperation.

  • C. Actively expand the existing TV, Monitor and small and medium-sized product lines to NB, Tablet PC wearable ( bands, watches, Metaverse-VR/AR) and vehicle/industrial control product lines.

43

  • (2) Production strategy

  • A. Introduce production integration automation and AOI automatic detection system one after another to increase production efficiency.

  • B. Strengthen the line change speed, concentrate production, and flexibly schedule production capacity in order to properly arrange urgent order production.

  • C. Strengthen the interaction with suppliers to stabilize the adequate supply of raw materials and reduce production costs.

  • D. Analyze the amount of production of drugs and consumables, and adjust the frequency reasonably to reduce production costs Use and cost.

  • E. Actively lay out the mainland market and strive to supply panel factories in mainland China.

  • (3) Product development

  • A. In the aspect of vehicle, how to improve the competitiveness is the focus, so it is very important to improve the product power. High reliability and better viewing angle and yield improvement in response to large-scale size are the key points.

  • B. Driven by the trend of the Metaverse, there are more and more demands for VR/AR, and the requirements for related craftsmanship and quality are different from those of current monitors. For example cut-out parts, laser-cut import helps with more complex dimensions in the future. In terms of affecting quality requirements, customers require MTF (Modulation Transfer Function), and related equipment must also be available to meet customer needs. At present, a lot of manpower is required to meet customer order requirements. How to be more automated in the future to save manpower is also one of the key points.

(3) Supply status of main raw material

At the end of 2019, a virus called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus began to gradually spread to the world in mainland China. It has entered its fourth year, but the situation has not subsided.

The established living habits of human beings have also been greatly changed due to this epidemic. Although the global economy has been greatly affected, it also contains the formation and vigorous development of the housing economy. The company also benefited from this trend, and its revenue grew last year. Compared with the previous year, it has grown by more than 30%. In addition to the clear positioning of the company and the success of the product structure strategy, the purchasing unit can successfully achieve or even exceed the company's operational goals, and another part is from the full assistance of various suppliers. In the past two years, due to the deduction of the epidemic, the implementation of customs/city closures, isolation/load reduction and other measures around the world, cross-border transportation is relatively difficult, so many raw materials are not produced in time, and the cost is not only increasing, but also the supply is not enough. In such a severe environment, thanks to the company's suppliers who fully recognize the responsibility of supply, and under the close interaction between the two parties, the mission is completed together.

In the future, procurement will continue to work hard to develop alternative materials and manufacturers with the assistance of relevant internal and external units, and maintain a good cooperative relationship with existing major suppliers to ensure that all materials are delivered to the factory in quantity and on time.

Explanation of reasons for changes in main materials in 2021:

In 20110 and 2011 Q1, the main sources of materials were mainly Japanese and Taiwanese suppliers. Based on cost considerations, the policy of localizing materials in Taiwan continued. The main procurement strategy is based on the adjustment of the use of material combinations and the emphasis on the material-price ratio to receive orders. The product order portfolio is generally dominated by MNT (PID)/TV/vehicle-mounted products, while TN/STN products are still struggling to maintain although they have no obvious growth, and the purchase items of major raw materials have not changed drastically.

(2) Increase or decrease in solvency ratio: mainly due to the decrease in current assets exceeding the decrease in
current liabilities, and the increase in net inventory and pre-tax profits.
(3) Increase or decrease in operating capacity ratio: mainly due to the increase in net sales, the shortening of the
credit period for customers, the increase in the turnover rate of receivables, and the decrease in the average total
assets caused.
(4) Increase in profitability ratio: mainly due to increase in pre-tax (post-tax) profits, decrease in average total
assets, increase in average total equity, and capital reduction to make up for losses.
(5) Decrease in fair cash flow ratio: mainly due to the increase in net inventory.
(6) Decrease in operating leverage ratio: mainly because the increase in net operating income less variable
operating costs and expenses exceeded the increase in operating profit.

I ndependent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of Optimax Technology Corporation:

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as at December 31, 2021, and 2020, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and cash flows for the years, then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and others explanatory information.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries as at December 31, 2021, and 2020, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended by following the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretation as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits by following 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. Based on our audits and the audits report of other independent accountants, 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 2021 Consolidated Financial Statements of Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries. 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 individually. The accountant's judgment should communicate the key audit matters on the audit report as follows:

1. Inventory Valuation

For the accounting policies of inventories, please refer to Note 4 (6) of the Consolidated Financial Statements; For the accounting estimates of the inventory evaluation and the description of the uncertainty of the assumptions, please refer to Note 5 of the Consolidated Financial Statements; For the description of important accounting items in inventories, please refer to Note 6 (6) of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The main business item of Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries are the manufacture and sales of polarizers. Because the inventory is easily affected by the market demand of the products used and the yield rate of the production process, resulting in sluggish or falling prices, so the inventory evaluation is listed as one of the key audit matters.

Our audit procedures performed in respect of the above area included the following:

  • (1) Check the inventory age report and analyze the changes of inventory age in each period.

  • (2) Evaluate the rationality of accounting policies, such as inventory depreciation or sluggish withdrawal policies.

75

  • (3) Assess whether the valuation of inventories has been in accordance with the company's established accounting policies.

  • (4) Obtain the report of the net realizable value of inventories on the end of the financial reporting period, the selling price of goods or the purchase price used to check the net realizable value, and other data sources, and recalculate the accrued inventory allowance to offset the loss in value to confirm such data. The performance of accounting estimates is consistent with its policies.

  • (5) Understand the process of inventory management, review its annual inventory plan and participate in annual inventory, and check inventory details to evaluate the effectiveness of management in distinguishing and controlling obsolete inventory.

2. Impairment assessment of Property, plant and equipment

For the accounting policy of asset impairment, please refer to Note 4 (11) of the Consolidated Financial Statements; For the uncertainty of the accounting estimates and assumptions of the asset impairment assessment, please refer to Note 5 of the Consolidated Financial Statements; For the description of important accounting items in Property, plant and equipment, please refer to Note 6 (9) of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Optimax Technology Corporation is a highly capitalized industry and is facing the interference of various factors such as the economic environment and industry competition; due to the assessment of impairment of Property, plant and equipment, it is necessary to estimate and discount the future cash flow to estimate the recoverable amount and other processes, which are inherently highly uncertain, so the assessment of impairment of Property, plant and equipment is one of the key audit matters.

Our audit procedures performed in respect of the above area included the following:

  • (1) Understand the relevant policies and procedures for impairment assessment, and assess the rationality of the management to identify the cash-generating units that may be impaired.

  • (2) Regarding the recoverable amount of the independent assessment report issued by a third party appointed by Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries, examine the reasonableness of the relevant assumptions, and assess the qualification and independence of the appraiser.

Other Matters Individual Financial Reports

Optimax Technology Corporation has edited the Individual Financial Report in year 2021 and 2020, and the accountant and issued by this audit report expressed an unqualified opinion and an opinion of emphasis on matters paragraph on file for reference.

The Management's Responsibility and Governing Body of the Consolidated Financial Statements

It is the management's responsibility to fairly present the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with the "Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers," and to maintain internal controls which are necessary for the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements so as to avoid material misstatements due to fraud or errors therein.

In preparing for the consolidated financial statement, responsibilities of the management also included assessment of the capacity to continue operation, disclosure of related matters and the accounting approaches to be adopted when the

76

Company continues to operate unless the management intends to liquidate or suspend the business of Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries if there was not any other option except liquidation or suspension of the Company's business.

The governing bodies of Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries (including the Audit Committee) have the responsibility to oversee the process by which the financial statements are prepared.

The Accountants' Responsibilities in Auditing the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the Consolidated Financial Statements as a whole are free from material misstatement arising from fraud or error, and to issue an independent auditors' report. "Reasonable assurance" refers to high level of assurance. Nevertheless, our audit, which was carried out in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards, does not guarantee that a material misstatement(s) will be detected in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements 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.

We have utilized our professional judgment and maintained professional skepticism when exercising auditing work in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards. We also:

  1. Identified and evaluated the risk of a material misstatement(s) due to fraud or errors in the Consolidated Financial Statements; designed and carried out appropriate countermeasures for the assessed risks; and obtained sufficient and appropriate evidence as the basis for the audit report. The risk of not detecting a significant 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. Acquired necessary understanding of internal controls pertaining to the audit in order to develop audit procedures appropriate under the circumstances. Nevertheless, the purpose of such understanding is not to provide any opinion on the effectiveness of the internal controls of Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries.

  3. Assess the appropriateness of the accounting policies adopted by the management level, as well as the reasonableness of their accounting estimates and relevant disclosures.

  4. Concluded, based on the audit evidence acquired, on the appropriateness of the management's use of the going-concern basis of accounting, and determined whether a material uncertainty exists where events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries to continue as going concerns. If we believe there are events or conditions indicating the existence of a material uncertainty, we are required to remind the users of the Consolidated Financial Statements in our audit report of the relevant disclosures therein, or to amend our audit opinion when any inappropriate disclosure was found. Our conclusion is based on the audit evidence acquired as of the date of the audit report. However, future events or conditions may cause Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries to cease to continue as a going concern. However, future events or conditions may cause Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluated the overall presentation, structure, and content of the Consolidated Financial Statements (including the related notes), and determined whether the Consolidated Financial Statements present related transactions and events fairly.

77

  1. Acquire sufficient and appropriate audit evidence for the financial information of the investee company that adopts the equity method to express opinions on Consolidated Financial Statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion on Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries.

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 provided governing bodies with a declaration that we had complied with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China regarding independence, and communicated with them all relationships and other matters that might possibly be deemed to impair our independence (including relevant preventive measures).

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determined the key audit matters of the Consolidated Financial Statements of Optimax Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries of 2021. 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 communications.

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below.

(1) Compliance statement

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the

“Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers”, International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the “IFRSs”).

84

(2) Basis of preparation

  • Except for the following items, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:

  • A. Financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss.

  • B. Net defined benefit liability at defined benefit obligation deducted plan assets through fair value.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the consolidated company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.

(3) Basis of consolidation

  • A. Basis for preparation of consolidated financial statements:

  • This consolidated financial report includes the company and the entities (subsidiaries) controlled by the company.

The consolidated comprehensive income statement has been included the operating profit and

loss from the acquired or executed subsidiary company in the current period since the acquisition date or to the date of disposition.

The financial report of the subsidiary has been adjusted so that its accounting policy is consistent with the consolidated company’s accounting policy.

When preparing the consolidated financial report, the transactions, account balances, income and expenses and losses have been completely eliminated.

Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent losing control of the subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. The book amount of the consolidated company and non-controlling interests has been adjusted to reflect changes in its relative equity in subsidiaries. Adjustment of non-controlling interests of the difference between the amount and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is directly recognized as a right and the benefits belong to the owners of the company.

When the consolidated company loses control of the subsidiary, the disposition profit and loss is one of the following two difference: (1) the fair value of the consideration received and the remaining investment in the former subsidiary are counted at the fair value at the date of loss of control, and (2) the assets of the former subsidiary (including goodwill), together with liabilities and non-controlling interests, they are counted based on the book amount on the day when control is lost. For all the amounts recognized in other comprehensive income and losses related to the subsidiary, the consolidated company accounting treatment must be followed by the direct disposal of related assets or liabilities with the consolidated company and the basis is the same.

(4) Classification of current and non-current items

  • A. Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets: otherwise they are classified as non-current assets:

  • (a) Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realized, or are intended to be sold or consumed within the normal operating cycle.

  • (b) Assets held mainly for trading purposes.

  • (c) Assets that are expected to be realized within twelve months from the balance sheet date.

  • (d) Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents and those that are to be exchanged or used to settle liabilities more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.

  • B. Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities: otherwise they are classified as non-current liabilities:

  • (a) Liabilities that are expected to be settled within the normal operating cycle.

  • (b) Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities.

  • (c) Liabilities that are to be settled within twelve months from the balance sheet date.

  • (d) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

(5) Foreign currency

When each entity prepares financial reports, transactions in currencies other than the individual's functional currency (foreign currency) are converted into functional currency records based on the exchange rate on the transaction day.

Monetary items in foreign currencies are translated at the closing exchange rate on each balance sheet date. The exchange difference arising from the currency items of delivery or the conversion of currency items is recognized in the current period profit and loss.

The fair value of foreign currency non-monetary items is used to determine the exchange rate on the

day of fair value rate conversion, the resulting exchange difference is listed in the current profit and

86

loss, but if the change in fair value is recognized in other comprehensive gains and losses, the resulting conversion difference is listed in other comprehensive gains and losses.

Non-monetary items in foreign currencies as measured by historical cost are converted at the exchange rate on the transaction date and will not be converted again.

When preparing the consolidated financial report, the assets and liabilities of foreign operating organizations (including subsidiaries in the country where they operate or whose currency is different from that of the company) are converted into New Taiwan dollars at the exchange rate on each balance sheet date. The income and expense items are converted at the average exchange rate of the current period. The resulting exchange difference is listed in other comprehensive profit and loss, and accumulated under the equity of the conversion difference of the foreign operation’s financial statements.

If the consolidated company disposes of all the rights and interests of the foreign operation, the accumulated exchange difference related to the foreign operations will be reclassified to profit or loss. If the partial disposal of the subsidiaries of the foreign operation does not result in the loss of control, the accumulated exchange difference is re-attributed to the subsidiary’s non-controlling interests and is not recognized as a profit or loss.

(6) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and applicable variable selling expenses.

(7) Non-current assets classified as held for sale

The carrying amount of non-current assets is expected to be mainly through sales transactions rather than continued use. When closed, it is classified as pending sale. Non-current assets that meet this classification must be available for immediate sale in their current state, and their sale must be highly probable. When the appropriate level of management commits to the plan to sell the asset, and the sale transaction is expected to start from the classification date when completed within one year, it will meet the sale as highly likely.

Non-current assets classified as pending for sale are measured at the lower of the book value and fair value less the cost of sale, and depreciation is stopped for such assets.

  • (8) Investments accounted for using equity method affiliated companies

  • Investments using the equity method are investments in affiliated companies.

Affiliate is an enterprise that has significant influence on the consolidated company but is not a subsidiary or a joint venture Industry.

The consolidated company adopts the equity method for investing in affiliated enterprises. Under the equity method, the investment in affiliated enterprises is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount in the future is based on the acquisition. Profits and losses of affiliated companies and other comprehensive profit and loss share and profit share enjoyed by the consolidated company match and increase or decrease. In addition, the changes in the equity of the affiliated company that the consolidated company can enjoy are based on the shareholding ratio is recognized.

When the affiliated company issues new shares, if the consolidated company does not subscribe according to the shareholding ratio, resulting in a change in the shareholding ratio and thus an increase or decrease in the net equity value of the investment, the increase or decrease will adjust the

87

capital reserve - the equity method is used to recognize the related party. Changes in the net equity value of enterprises and investments using the equity method. However, if the shareholding ratio is not subscribed or acquired, resulting in a decrease in the ownership interest of the affiliated company, the amount related to the affiliated company recognized in other comprehensive profit and loss shall be reclassified according to the proportion of decrease, and the accounting treatment shall be based on the affiliated company. If the relevant assets or liabilities are directly disposed of on the same basis; if the adjustment in the preceding paragraph should be debited to the capital reserve, and the capital reserve balance generated by the investment using the equity method is insufficient, the difference is debited to retained earnings.

When the merging company's share of losses in an affiliated company equals or exceeds its equity in the associated company (including the carrying amount of investments in the affiliated company under the equity method and other long-term interests that are substantially part of the merging company's net investment in the affiliated company) , that is, stop recognizing further losses. The consolidated company recognizes additional losses and liabilities only to the extent that legal obligations, constructive obligations or payments have been made on behalf of related companies.

When assessing impairment, the consolidated company treats the overall carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) as a single asset, compares the recoverable amount with the carrying amount, and conducts impairment tests. The recognized impairment losses are not allocated to constitute the component of the carrying amount of the investment any assets, including goodwill. Any reversal of impairment losses is recognized to the extent of a subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of the investment.

The consolidated company ceases to use the equity method from the date when its investment ceases to be an affiliated company, and its retained interest in the original affiliated company is measured at fair value, included in the current year's profit and loss. In addition, all the amounts recognized in other comprehensive profit or loss related to the affiliated enterprise shall be accounted for in the same way as if the affiliated enterprise directly disposes of the relevant assets or liabilities. The basis that must be followed is the same.

Profits and losses arising from countercurrent, downstream and sidestream transactions between the consolidated company and its affiliates are recognized in the consolidated financial report.

(9) Property, plant and equipment

Real estate, plant and equipment are recognized at cost, and subsequently cost minus accumulated depreciation and the amount after the accumulated impairment loss is measured.

The real property, plant and equipment under construction are the cost minus the accumulated impairment loss and the amount is recognized. Cost includes professional service fees and borrowing costs that meet the capitalization conditions. When these assets are completed and reach the expected state of use, they are classified into real estate, plant and equipment of the appropriate categories of equipment and start depreciation.

Except for self-owned land, which is not depreciated, the rest of the real estate, plant and equipment will be depreciated on a straight-line basis within the service life of each significant part. The consolidated company is at least to review the estimated service life, residual value and depreciation method at the end of each year, and postpone the impact of changes in applicable accounting estimates.

When real estate, plant and equipment are delisted, the difference between the net disposal price and the book value of the asset is recognized in profit and loss.

88

(10) Investment real estate

Investment real estate refers to real estate held for the purpose of earning rent or capital appreciation or both (including right-of-use assets that meet the definition of investment real estate). Investment real estate also includes land that has not yet been determined for future use.

Self-owned investment real estate is initially measured at cost (including transaction costs), and subsequently measured at the amount of cost minus accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

The investment real estate acquired by the lease is initially measured at cost (including the original measurement amount of the lease liability and the lease payment paid before the lease start date), and subsequently measured at the amount after the cost minus the accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, and the lease liability is adjusted again. All investment real estate is depreciated on a straight-line basis. Real estate, plant and equipment are transferred to investment real estate on the book amount at the end of self-use.

When investment real estate is delisted, the difference between the net disposal price and the asset's book value is recognized in profit and loss.

(11) Impairment of non-financial assets

The consolidated company assesses on each balance sheet date whether there are any indications that real property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, and intangible assets may have been impaired. If there is any sign of impairment, estimate the recoverable amount of the asset. If the recoverable amount of an individual asset cannot be estimated, the consolidated company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less the cost of sale and its use value. If the recoverable amount of an individual asset or cash-generating unit is lower than its book value, the book value of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, and the impairment loss is recognized in profit and loss.

When the impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or cashgenerating unit is adjusted to the revised recoverable amount, but the increased carrying amount does not exceed the asset or cash-generating unit if the impairment is not recognized in the previous year which the book value determined at the time of the loss (minus amortization or depreciation). The reversal of the impairment loss is recognized in the profit and loss.

(12) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet of the consolidated company which becomes one of the contractual terms of the instrument.

When financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized, if financial assets or financial liabilities are not measured at fair value through profit and loss, they are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value plus the transaction cost measurement. Directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss is immediately recognized as profit and loss.

  1. Financial assets

  2. Conventional transactions of financial assets are recognized and delisted by accounting on the transaction date.

  3. (1) Type of measurement

The types of financial assets held by the consolidated company are financial assets measured at amortized cost and equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses.

89

  • A. Financial assets measured at amortized cost

  • If the financial assets invested by the consolidated company meet the following two conditions, they are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost:

  • (a) It is held under a certain business model, the purpose of which is to hold financial assets

  • (b) The contract terms generate cash flows on a specific date, and these cash flows are completely to collect contractual cash flows; and to pay the principal and interest on the amount of principal in circulation.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable at amortized cost, other receivables and other financial assets) are determined by the effective interest method after initial recognition The total book value is measured after deducting any impairment loss after amortization, and any foreign currency exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit and loss.

Except for the following two cases, interest income is the effective interest rate multiplied by the financial asset of total book amount:

  • (a) For purchased or created credit-impaired financial assets, interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate after credit adjustment by the amortized cost of the financial asset.

  • (b) For financial assets that are not purchased or original credit impairment, but

    • subsequently become credit impairment, you should be confident to calculate interest income by multiplying the effective interest rate by the amortized cost of the financial asset from the next reporting period after the impairment.

    • Equivalent cash includes fixed deposits that are highly liquid and can be converted into fixed cash at any time within 3 months from the date of acquisition, and are used to meet short-term cash commitments.

  • B. Through other comprehensive profit and loss equity instruments measured at fair value to invest in a merged company, at the time of initial recognition, an irrevocable choice may be made, which is not to hold for trading and is not recognized by the purchaser of the business merger or has the consideration. Instrument investment is designated to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses.

Equity instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses are measured at fair value, and subsequent changes in fair value are reported in other comprehensive gains and losses and accumulated in other equity. At the time of investment disposal, the accumulated profits and losses are directly transferred to retained earnings and are not reclassified as profits and losses.

The dividends of equity instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses are recognized in the profit and loss when the rights of the consolidated company to receive payments are established, unless the dividend clearly represents the recovery of part of the investment cost.

  • (2) Impairment of financial assets

  • A. The consolidated company assesses the impairment losses of financial assets (including accounts receivable) measured at amortized cost based on expected credit losses on each balance sheet date.

  • B. Accounts receivable shall be recognized as an allowance loss based on the expected credit loss during the duration. For other financial assets, first assess whether the credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition. If there is no significant increase, the allowance loss is recognized based on the 12-month expected credit loss, and if it has increased significantly, it is recognized based on the lifetime expected credit loss Allowance for losses.

  • C. Expected credit loss is the weighted average credit loss based on the risk of default. The 12month expected credit loss refers to the expected credit loss caused by the possible default event of the financial instrument within 12 months after the reporting date, and the lifetime

90

expected credit loss represents the expected credit loss caused by all possible default events during the expected lifetime of the financial instrument. The impairment loss of all financial assets is reduced by the allowance account.

  • (3) Delisting of financial assets

The consolidated company only lapses in the contractual rights from the cash flow of financial assets. It has transferred the financial assets and almost all risks and reports of the ownership of the assets.

When transferring to other enterprises, the financial assets are only delisted. When the financial assets measured at the amortized cost are delisted as a whole, their book amount is the difference between the consideration received is recognized in profit and loss. When the equity instrument investment measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses is declassified as a whole, the accumulated gains and losses are directly transferred to the retained earnings are not reclassified as profit or loss.

  1. Financial liabilities and equity instruments

  2. (1) Classification of liabilities or equity

The debt and equity instruments issued by the amalgamating company are classified as financial liabilities or equity based on the substance of the contractual agreement and the definition of financial liabilities and equity instruments.

An equity instrument refers to any contract that recognizes the remaining equity of the consolidated company after deducting all its liabilities from its assets. The equity instruments issued are recognized by the consolidated company after the acquired price deducting the cost of direct issuance.

  • (2) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are not held for trading and are not designated as those measured at fair value through profit or loss (including payables). The initial recognition is based on fair value plus direct attributable transaction cost measurement; follow-up evaluation adopts effective interest rate method to amortize this measure.

  • (3) Delisting of financial liabilities

The consolidated company delists financial liabilities when contractual obligations have been fulfilled, cancelled, or expired debt.

When excluding financial liabilities, the difference between its book value and the total consideration paid or payable (including any transferred non-cash assets or liabilities assumed) is recognized as profit and loss.

(13) Liability provision

When the consolidated company has current obligations (statutory or constructive obligations) due to past events, and is likely to be required to pay off the obligations, and the amount of the obligations can be reliably estimated, the liability provision shall be recognized. The amount recognized as a liability reserve is based on the risk and uncertainty of the obligation, and is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date. The liability reserve is measured by discounting the estimated cash flow of the settlement obligation.

  • (14) Income recognition

After the consolidated company recognizes the performance obligations in the customer contract, it allocates the transaction price to each performance

obligations, and recognize income when each performance obligation is met. Commodity sales revenue

91

  1. Commodity sales revenue comes from the manufacture and sale of polarizers. Sales revenue is recognized when the control of the product is transferred to the customer, that is, when the product is delivered to the customer and the combined company has no outstanding performance obligations that may affect the customer's acceptance of the product. Because when the goods arrive at the customer's designated location, the customer has the right to set the price and use of the goods and bears the main responsibility for resale, and bears the risk of obsolescence and obsolescence of the goods, the merged company recognizes revenue and receivables at that point in time Accounts. The advance receipts received before the arrival of the goods are recognized as contract liabilities.

  2. Commodity sales revenue is measured by the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, and deducted estimated customer returns, discounts and other similar discounts. The combined company estimates possible sales returns and discounts based on historical experience and other known reasons, and recognizes them accordingly refund liabilities and related rights to return products.

(15) Rent

The consolidated company assesses whether the contract belongs to (or contains) a lease on the date of contract establishment.

  1. The merged company is the lessor

  2. When the lease term is to transfer almost all the risks and rewards attached to the ownership of the asset to the lessee classifies it as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating lease. When the consolidated company subleases the right-of-use asset, the right-of-use asset (not the underlying asset) is used to determine the classification of the sublease. However, if the main lease is a short-term when leasing, the sublease is classified as an operating lease.

Under operating leases, lease payments after deduction of lease incentives are recognized as income on a straight-line basis during the relevant lease period. The lease negotiation with the lessee is related to lease repair from the effective date of the change, it will be treated as a new lease.

  1. The consolidated company is the lessee

  2. Except for the lease payments of low-value underlying asset leases and short-term leases that are subject to the applicable recognition exemption, the lease payments are recognized as expenses during the lease period on a straight-line basis, and all other leases are opened in the lease. The right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized on the inception date.

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of the lease liabilities, adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs needed to dismantle, remove and restore the underlying assets and the subsequent measures are measured at the cost after deducting the accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, and the remeasurement amount of the lease liability is adjusted.

Except for those that meet the definition of investment real estate, right-of-use assets are separately expressed in the consolidated balance sheet, and the recognition and balance of right-ofuse assets that meet the definition of investment real estate, please refer to Note 4 (9) Accounting Policy for Investment Real Estate.

The right-of-use asset adopts a straight-line basis from the lease start date to the end of its useful life or the lease period expires, the earlier of the two shall be depreciated.

The lease liability was originally measured at the present value of the lease payment. If the implicit interest rate of the lease is easy to determine, the lease payment is discounted using that

92

interest rate. If the interest rate is not easy to determine, use the lessee to increase the borrowing interest rate.

Subsequently, the lease liability is measured on the amortized cost basis using the effective interest method, and the interest expense is amortized during the lease period. If the lease period or the index or rate used to determine the lease payment changes resulting in a change in the future lease payment, the consolidated company will continue measure the lease liability and relatively adjust the right-of-use asset. However, if the book value of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero, the remaining remeasured amount is recognized in the profit and loss. For lease modifications that are not treated as separate leases, the scope of the lease is reduced The remeasurement of the lease liability is to reduce the right-of-use asset and recognize the profit and loss of the partial or full termination of the lease; the remeasurement of the lease liability for other modifications is to adjust the right-of-use asset, and the lease liability is separately expressed in the consolidated balance sheet.

The consolidated company and the lessor negotiated rents directly related to the COVID-19, adjusted the rents due before June 30, 2021, resulting in a decrease in rents. These negotiations did not materially change other lease terms. The consolidated company chooses to adopt practical expedients to handle all rental negotiations that meet the aforementioned conditions, and does not assess whether the negotiation is a lease modification, but recognizes the reduction of lease payments in the profit and loss when the concession event or situation occurs, and relatively reduces the lease debt.

(16) Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are measured by the expected non-discounted amount of cash paid, and are recognized as expenses when the relevant services are provided.

For the definite allocation plan, the amount of the retirement fund that should be allocated is recognized as the current pension expense on the basis of accrual. The advance payment is recognized as an asset within the scope of refundable cash or reduced future payments.

The net obligation under the definite benefit plan is calculated by discounting the amount of future benefits earned by the employee for the current or past services, and the current value of the definite benefit obligation on the balance sheet date minus the fair value of the plan assets. The net obligation to determine benefits is calculated by the actuary every year using the projected unit benefit method, and the discount rate is determined by referring to the market yield rate of high-quality corporate bonds that are consistent with the currency and period of the determined benefit plan on the balance sheet date; in high-quality corporate bonds For countries with no deep market, the market yield rate of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) is used. The remeasurement amount generated by the determined benefit plan is recognized in other comprehensive profit and loss in the current period and included in the retained surplus. The related expenses of the previous service cost are immediately recognized as a loss.

Resignation benefits are benefits provided when the employee's employment is terminated before the normal retirement date or when the employee decides to accept the company's welfare invitation in exchange for termination of employment. The consolidated company recognizes expenses when the offer for resignation benefits can no longer be revoked or when the relevant reorganization costs are recognized earlier, and it is not expected that the benefits that are fully paid off within 12 months after the balance sheet date should be granted discount.

93

(17) Income taxes

1. Current income tax

The consolidated company determines the current income (loss), based on which to calculate the payable (recoverable) income tax.

The undistributed surplus calculated in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Law of the Republic of China is subject to additional income tax, recognized by the resolution of the Shareholders’ annual meeting.

The adjustment of income tax payable in previous years is included in current income tax.

2. Deferred income tax

Deferred income tax is calculated based on the temporary difference between the book value of assets and liabilities and the tax basis for calculating taxable income.

Deferred income tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, while deferred income tax assets are recognized when there is likely to be taxable income for deduction of temporary differences or loss deductions.

Taxable temporary differences related to investment in subsidiaries are recognized as deferred income tax liabilities, but if the consolidated company can control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference, and the temporary difference is likely to not revert in the foreseeable future except. The deductible temporary differences related to this type of investment are recognized as deferred income tax only if it is likely to have sufficient taxable income to realize the temporary difference, and within the scope of expected return in the foreseeable future assets.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed on each balance sheet date, and the carrying amount is reduced for those that are no longer likely to have sufficient taxable income to recover all or part of their assets. Those that were not previously recognized as deferred income tax assets are also reviewed on each balance sheet date and are likely to generate taxable income for the recovery of all or part of their assets in the future, increase the carrying amount. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured by the tax rate for the current period of expected debt settlement or asset realization. The tax rate is based on the tax rate and tax law that has been legislated or substantively legislated on the balance sheet date, and the deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured It reflects the tax consequences arising from the manner in which the consolidated company expects to recover or settle the book value of its assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date.

  • 3.Current and deferred income tax

Current and deferred income taxes are recognized in profit or loss, but current and deferred income taxes related to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly included in equity are recognized in other comprehensive profit or loss may be directly included in equity.

5. Critical Accounting Judgments and Key Sources of Estimation and Assumption Uncertainty

When the consolidated company adopts the accounting policies described in Note 4, for those who cannot easily obtain information about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities from other sources, the management must base on historical experience and other relevant factors to make relevant judgments, estimates and assumptions. The estimates and related assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors deemed relevant. Actual results may differ from estimates. Estimates and basic assumptions are continuously reviewed. If the revision of the estimate only affects the current period, it shall be recognized in the current period of the revision of the accounting estimate. If the revision of the accounting estimate affects both the current period and the future period, it shall be recognized in the current period and the future period of the estimate revision. The main sources of uncertainties in major accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions of the consolidated company are as follows:

(1) Evaluation of inventories

Since inventory must be priced at the lower of cost and net realizable value, the merging company must use judgment and estimation to determine the net realizable value of the inventory at the end of the financial reporting period. Due to the rapid changes in the industry, the consolidated company assesses the amount of inventory at the end of the financial reporting period due to normal depletion, obsolescence, or no market sales value, and offsets the inventory cost to the net realizable value. This inventory evaluation is mainly based on the product demand in a specific period in the future, which may cause major changes.

  • (2) Estimated impairment of financial assets

  • The estimated impairment of accounts receivable is based on the assumption of default rate and expected loss rate of the consolidated company. The consolidated company considers historical experience, current market conditions and forward-looking information to make assumptions and select input values for impairment assessment. For important assumptions and input values used, please refer to Note 6 (4). If the actual future cash flow is less than expected, it may be incurred significant impairment losses.

  • (3) Assessment of impairment of non-financial assets

  • In the process of asset impairment assessment, the consolidated company must rely on subjective judgments and determine the independent cash flow of a specific asset group, the number of years of asset durability, and the possible future income and expenses of a specific asset group based on the use of assets and industrial characteristics. Changes or estimated changes brought about by the company's strategy may cause significant impairment or reversal of recognized impairment losses in the future.

  • (4) The realizability of deferred income tax assets

  • Deferred income tax assets are recognized when there is likely to be sufficient taxable income in the future to deduct temporary differences. When assessing the feasibility of deferred income tax assets, significant accounting judgments and estimates of the management must be involved, including the expected future sales revenue growth and profit rate, tax exemption period, applicable income tax deductions and tax regulations and cost-effective assumption. Any changes in the global economic environment, industrial environment and laws and regulations may cause major adjustments to deferred income tax assets.

The consolidated company’s investment in foreign unlisted companies is for the purpose of medium and long-term holding, and it is expected profit through long-term investment.

The consolidated company is exposed to the following risks due to the pension system of the Labor Standards Law:

  • (1) Investment risk: The Labor Fund Utilization Bureau of the Ministry of Labor invests labor retirement funds in domestic (foreign) equity securities through its own use and entrusted operations. Subject to debt securities and bank deposits, but in accordance with the provisions of the Labor Standards Law, the overall return on assets shall not be lower than the local bank’s 2-year fixed deposit interest rate: if the interest rate is lower than that, the state treasury shall make up for it.

  • (2) Interest rate risk: The decline in the interest rate of government bonds will increase the present

  • value of the determined welfare obligation, but the debt investment return of the planned asset will also increase. The two are in conflict and the impact of fixed benefit liabilities has a partial offset effect.

  • (3) Salary risk: The calculation of the present value of the defined benefit obligation is based on the future salary of the plan members. Therefore, the increase in the salary of the plan members will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

The main assumptions of actuarial evaluation are listed as follows:

Discount Rate
Expected salary increase rate
December 31, 2021
0.750
2.0000
December 31, 2020

The changes in the main actuarial assumptions that were adopted on December 31, 2021 and 2020, will increase (decrease) the present value of defined benefit obligations by the following amounts:

The sensitivity analysis above is based on the analysis of a single hypothesis while other assumptions remain unchanged the impact of changes. In practice, many changes in assumptions may be linked. The sensitivity analysis is consistent with the method used to calculate the net pension liabilities of the balance sheet. The methods and assumptions used in the preparation of the sensitivity analysis in this period are the same as those in the previous period.

Address: No. 37, Lane 659, Pingdong Rd., Pingzhen District, Taoyuan City, Taiwan, R.O.C Telephone: 886-3-460-6677

The independent auditors’ report and the accompanying Individual financial statements are the English translation of the Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China. NOT AUDITED OR REVIEWED BY AUDITORS. If there is any conflict between, or any difference in the interpretation of the English and Chinese language independent auditors’ report and the Individual financial statements, the Chinese version shall prevail.

148

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of Optimax Technology Corporation:

Opinion

We have audited the individual financial statements of Optimax Technology Corporation (“the Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity, and statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and notes to the individual financial statements including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying individual financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and its financial performance and its cash flows for each of 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 by following 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 Individual 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. Based on our audits and the audits report of other independent accountants, 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 2021 Individual Financial Statements of Optimax Technology Corporation. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Individual Financial Statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon. We do not provide a separate opinion on these matters individually. The accountant's judgment should communicate the key audit matters on the audit report as follows:

1. Inventory Valuation

For the accounting policies of inventories, please refer to Note 4 (5) of the Individual Financial Statements; For the accounting estimates of the inventory evaluation and the description of the uncertainty of the assumptions, please refer to Note 5 of the Individual Financial Statements; For the description of important accounting items in inventories, please refer to Note 6 (6) of the Individual Financial Statements.

The main business item of Optimax Technology Corporation is the manufacture and sales of polarizers. Because the inventory is easily affected by the market demand of the products used and the yield rate of the production process, resulting in sluggish or falling prices, so the inventory evaluation is listed as one of the key audit matters.

Our audit procedures performed in respect of the above area included the following:

  • (1) Check the inventory age report and analyze the changes of inventory age in each period.

  • (2) Evaluate the rationality of accounting policies, such as inventory depreciation or sluggish withdrawal policies.

  • (3) Assess whether the valuation of inventories has been in accordance with the company's established accounting policies.

149

  • (4) Obtain the report of the net realizable value of inventories on the end of the financial reporting period, the selling price of goods or the purchase price used to check the net realizable value, and other data sources, and recalculate the accrued inventory allowance to offset the loss in value to confirm such data. The performance of accounting estimates is consistent with its policies.

  • (5) Understand the process of inventory management, review its annual inventory plan and participate in annual inventory, and check inventory details to evaluate the effectiveness of management in distinguishing and controlling obsolete inventory.

2. Impairment assessment of Property, plant and equipment

For the accounting policy of asset impairment, please refer to Note 4 (10) of the Individual Financial Statements; For the uncertainty of the accounting estimates and assumptions of the asset impairment assessment, please refer to Note 5 of the Individual Financial Statements; For the description of important accounting items in Property, plant and equipment, please refer to Note 6 (9) of the Individual Financial Statements.

Optimax Technology Corporation is a highly capitalized industry and is facing the interference of various factors such as the economic environment and industry competition; due to the assessment of impairment of Property, plant and equipment, it is necessary to estimate and discount the future cash flow to estimate the recoverable amount and other processes, which are inherently highly uncertain, so the assessment of impairment of Property, plant and equipment is one of the key audit matters.

Our audit procedures performed in respect of the above area included the following:

  • (1) Understand the relevant policies and procedures for impairment assessment, and assess the rationality of the management to identify the cash-generating units that may be impaired.

  • (2) Regarding the recoverable amount of the independent assessment report issued by a third party appointed by Optimax Technology Corporation, examine the reasonableness of the relevant assumptions, and assess the qualification and independence of the appraiser.

The Management's Responsibility and Governing Body of the Individual Financial Statements

It is the management's responsibility to fairly present the Individual Financial Statements in conformity with the "Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers," and to maintain internal controls which are necessary for the preparation of the Individual Financial Statements so as to avoid material misstatements due to fraud or errors therein.

In preparing for the individual financial statement, responsibilities of the management also included assessment of the capacity to continue operation, disclosure of related matters and the accounting approaches to be adopted when the Company continues to operate unless the management intends to liquidate or suspend the business of Optimax Technology Corporation if there was not any other option except liquidation or suspension of the Company's business.

The governing bodies of Optimax Technology Corporation (including the Audit Committee) have the responsibility to oversee the process by which the financial statements are prepared.

The Accountants' Responsibilities in Auditing the Individual Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the Individual Financial Statements as a whole are free from material misstatement arising from fraud or error, and to issue an independent auditors' report. "Reasonable assurance" refers to high level of assurance. Nevertheless, our audit, which was carried out in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards, does not guarantee that a material misstatement(s) will be detected in the

150

Individual Financial Statements. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements 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 Individual Financial Statements.

We have utilized our professional judgment and maintained professional skepticism when exercising auditing work in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards. We also:

  1. Identified and evaluated the risk of a material misstatement(s) due to fraud or errors in the Individual Financial Statements; designed and carried out appropriate countermeasures for the assessed risks; and obtained sufficient and appropriate evidence as the basis for the audit report. The risk of not detecting a significant 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. Acquired necessary understanding of internal controls pertaining to the audit in order to develop audit procedures appropriate under the circumstances. Nevertheless, the purpose of such understanding is not to provide any opinion on the effectiveness of the internal controls of Optimax Technology Corporation.

  3. Assess the appropriateness of the accounting policies adopted by the management level, as well as the reasonableness of their accounting estimates and relevant disclosures.

  4. Concluded, based on the audit evidence acquired, on the appropriateness of the management's use of the going-concern basis of accounting, and determined whether a material uncertainty exists where events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of Optimax Technology Corporation to continue as going concerns. If we believe there are events or conditions indicating the existence of a material uncertainty, we are required to remind the users of the Individual Financial Statements in our audit report of the relevant disclosures therein, or to amend our audit opinion when any inappropriate disclosure was found. Our conclusion is based on the audit evidence acquired as of the date of the audit report. However, future events or conditions may cause Optimax Technology Corporation to cease to continue as a going concern. However, future events or conditions may cause Optimax Technology Corporation to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluated the overall presentation, structure, and content of the Individual Financial Statements (including the related notes), and determined whether the Individual Financial Statements present related transactions and events fairly.

    1. Acquire sufficient and appropriate audit evidence for the financial information of the investee company that adopts the equity method to express opinions on Individual Financial Statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion on Optimax Technology Corporation.

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 provided governing bodies with a declaration that we had complied with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China regarding independence, and communicated with them all relationships and other matters that might possibly be deemed to impair our independence (including relevant preventive measures).

151

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determined the key audit matters of the Individual Financial Statements of Optimax Technology Corporation of 2021. 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 communications.

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these Individual financial statements are set out below.

(1) Compliance statement

The Individual financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers”

158

(2) Basis of preparation

  • Except for the following items, the Individual financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:

  • A. Financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss.

  • B. Net defined benefit liability at defined benefit obligation deducted plan assets through fair value.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Individual financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.

When the company prepares the individual financial report, the investment subsidiary adopts the equity method. To make the Individual financial report's current year's profit and loss, other comprehensive gains and losses, and the company's consolidated financial report for the current year attributable to the company's owners, other comprehension benefits and equity being the same, some accounting treatment differences adjusted based on the individual basis and the consolidated basis of "investments using the equity method", "shares of profits and losses of subsidiaries using the equity method", "shares of other comprehensive profits and losses of subsidiaries using the equity method" and related equity items.

(3) Classification of current and non-current items

  • A. Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets: otherwise they are classified as non-current assets:

    • (1) Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realized, or are intended to be

    • (2) sold or consumed within the normal operating cycle.

    • (3) Assets held mainly for trading purposes.

    • (4) Assets that are expected to be realized within twelve months from the balance sheet date.

    • (5) Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents and those that are to be exchanged or used to settle liabilities more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.

  • B. Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities: otherwise they are classified as non-current liabilities:

    • (1) Liabilities that are expected to be settled within the normal operating cycle.

    • (2) Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities.

    • (3) Liabilities that are to be settled within twelve months from the balance sheet date.

    • (4) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

  • (4) Foreign currency

When each entity prepares financial reports, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency (foreign currency) are converted into functional currency records based on the exchange rate on the transaction day.

159

Monetary items in foreign currencies are translated at the closing exchange rate on each balance sheet date. The exchange difference arising from the currency items of delivery or the conversion of currency items is recognized in the current period profit and loss.

The fair value of foreign currency non-monetary items is used to determine the exchange rate on the day of fair value rate conversion, the resulting exchange difference is listed in the current profit and loss, but if the change in fair value is recognized in other comprehensive gains and losses, the resulting conversion difference is listed in other comprehensive gains and losses.

Non-monetary items in foreign currencies as measured by historical cost are converted at the exchange rate on the transaction date and will not be converted again.

When preparing the Individual financial report, the assets and liabilities of foreign operating organizations (including subsidiaries in the country where they operate or whose currency is different from that of the company) are converted into New Taiwan dollars at the exchange rate on each balance sheet date.

The income and expense items are converted at the average exchange rate of the current period. The resulting exchange difference is listed in other comprehensive profit and loss, and accumulated under the equity of the conversion difference of the foreign operation’s financial statements.

If the company disposes of all the rights and interests of the foreign operation, the accumulated exchange difference related to the foreign operations will be reclassified to profit or loss. If the partial disposal of the subsidiaries of the foreign operation does not result in the loss of control, the accumulated exchange difference is re-attributed to the subsidiary’s non-controlling interests and is not recognized as a profit or loss.

(5) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weightedaverage method. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and applicable variable selling expenses.

(6) Non-current assets classified as held for sale

  • The carrying amount of non-current assets is expected to be mainly through sales transactions rather than continued use. When closed, it is classified as pending sale. Non-current assets that meet this classification must be available for immediate sale in their current state, and their sale must be highly probable. When the appropriate level of management commits to the plan to sell the asset, and the sale transaction is expected to start from the classification date when completed within one year, it will meet the sale as highly likely.

  • Non-current assets classified as pending for sale are measured at the lower of the book value and fair value less the cost of sale, and depreciation is stopped for such assets.

(7) Investments accounted for using equity method- subsidiaries

The company uses the equity method to handle investments in subsidiaries.

A subsidiary refers to an entity that the company has control over. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at cost, and the book amount obtained in the future will increase or decrease according to the company's share of subsidiary profit and loss and other comprehensive profit and loss shares and profit distribution. Moreover, the changes in the company's other rights and interests of subsidiaries are recognized based on the shareholding ratio.

160

When the company's change in ownership and equity of the subsidiary does not result in the loss of control, it is regarded as equity transaction processing. Between the book value of the investment and the fair value of the consideration paid or received the difference is directly recognized as equity. When the company’s share of the subsidiary’s loss equals or exceeds its equity in the subsidiary (including the book amount of the subsidiary under the equity method and the other long-term rights and interests as part of the company’s net investment), the system continues to recognize the loss based on the shareholding ratio .

The amount of the acquisition cost exceeding the company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the subsidiary that constitutes the business on the acquisition date is classified as goodwill, which is included in the book value of the investment and cannot be amortized. The amount by which the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the subsidiary’s identifiable assets and liabilities that constitute the business on the day exceeds the cost of acquisition is recorded as current income.

When assessing impairment, the company considers the cash-generating unit as a whole in the financial report and compares its recoverable amount with the book value. If the recoverable amount of the asset increases subsequently, the reversal of the impairment loss is recognized as an interest, but the book value of the asset after the reversal of the impairment loss shall not exceed the asset in the case of unrecognized impairment loss, the deduction should be withdrawn the book amount after amortization. The impairment loss attributable to goodwill shall not be reversed in subsequent periods. When the company loses control of a subsidiary, it measures its remaining investment in the former subsidiary at the fair value on the date of loss of control. The fair value of the remaining investment and the difference between any disposal price and the book value of the investment on the date of loss of control are included in Current profit and loss. In addition, all amounts recognized in other comprehensive profits and losses related to the subsidiary are accounted for on the same basis as the company's direct disposal of related assets or liabilities. The unrealized gains and losses of downstream transactions between the company and its subsidiaries are eliminated in the Individual financial report. The profits and losses arising from the counter-current and side-current transactions between the company and its subsidiaries are only recognized in the Individual financial reports within the scope that has nothing to do with the company’s equity in the subsidiaries.

(8) Property, plant and equipment

Real estate, plant and equipment are recognized at cost, and subsequently cost minus accumulated depreciation and the amount after the accumulated impairment loss is measured.

The real property, plant and equipment under construction are the cost minus the accumulated impairment loss and the amount is recognized. Cost includes professional service fees and borrowing costs that meet the capitalization conditions. When these assets are completed and reach the expected state of use, they are classified into real estate, plant and equipment of the appropriate categories of equipment and start depreciation.

Except for self-owned land, which is not depreciated, the rest of the real estate, plant and equipment will be depreciated on a straight-line basis within the service life of each significant part. The company is at least to review the estimated service life, residual value and depreciation method at the end of each year, and postpone the impact of changes in applicable accounting estimates.

When real estate, plant and equipment are delisted, the difference between the net disposal price and the book value of the asset is recognized in profit and loss.

161

(9) Investment real estate

Investment real estate refers to real estate held for the purpose of earning rent or capital appreciation or both (including right-of-use assets that meet the definition of investment real estate). Investment real estate also includes land that has not yet been determined for future use.

Self-owned investment real estate is initially measured at cost (including transaction costs), and subsequently measured at the amount of cost minus accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

The investment real estate acquired by the lease is initially measured at cost (including the original measurement amount of the lease liability and the lease payment paid before the lease start date), and subsequently measured at the amount after the cost minus the accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, and the lease liability is adjusted again.

All investment real estate is depreciated on a straight-line basis. Real estate, plant and equipment are transferred to investment real estate on the book amount at the end of self-use.

When investment real estate is delisted, the difference between the net disposal price and the asset's book value is recognized in profit and loss.

(10) Impairment of non-financial assets

The company assesses on each balance sheet date whether there are any indications that real property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, investment real estate and intangible assets may have been impaired. If there is any sign of impairment, estimate the recoverable amount of the asset. If the recoverable amount of an individual asset cannot be estimated, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less the cost of sale and its use value. If the recoverable amount of an individual asset or cash-generating unit is lower than its book value, the book value of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, and the impairment loss is recognized in profit and loss.

When the impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is adjusted to the revised recoverable amount, but the increased carrying amount does not exceed the asset or cash-generating unit if the impairment is not recognized in the previous year which the book value determined at the time of the loss (minus amortization or depreciation). The reversal of the impairment loss is recognized in the profit and loss.

(11) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized on the Individual balance sheet of the company which becomes one of the contractual terms of the instrument.

When financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized, if financial assets or financial liabilities are not measured at fair value through profit and loss, they are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value plus the transaction cost measurement. Directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss is immediately recognized as profit and loss.

  1. Financial assets

  2. Conventional transactions of financial assets are recognized and delisted by accounting on the transaction date.

  3. (1) Type of measurement

The types of financial assets held by the company are financial assets

measured at amortized cost and equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses.

162

  • A. Financial assets measured at amortized cost

  • If the financial assets invested by the company meet the following two conditions, they are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost:

  • (a) It is held under a certain business model, the purpose of which is to hold financial assets

  • (b) The contract terms generate cash flows on a specific date, and these cash flows are completely to collect contractual cash flows; and to pay the principal and interest on the amount of principal in circulation.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable at amortized cost, other receivables and other financial assets) are determined by the effective interest method after initial recognition The total book value is measured after deducting any impairment loss after amortization, and any foreign currency exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit and loss.

Except for the following two cases, interest income is the effective interest rate multiplied by the financial asset of total book amount:

  • (c) For purchased or created credit-impaired financial assets, interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate after credit adjustment by the amortized cost of the financial asset.

  • (d) For financial assets that are not purchased or original credit impairment, but subsequently become credit impairment, you should be confident to calculate interest income by multiplying the effective interest rate by the amortized cost of the financial asset from the next reporting period after the impairment.

    • Equivalent cash includes fixed deposits that are highly liquid and can be converted into fixed cash at any time within 3 months from the date of acquisition, and are used to meet short-term cash commitments.
  • B. Through other comprehensive profit and loss equity instruments measured at fair value to invest in a merged company, at the time of initial recognition, an irrevocable choice may be made, which is not to hold for trading and is not recognized by the purchaser of the business merger or has the consideration. Instrument investment is designated to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses.

  • Equity instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses are measured at fair value, and subsequent changes in fair value are reported in other comprehensive gains and losses and accumulated in other equity. At the time of investment disposal, the accumulated profits and losses are directly transferred to retained earnings and are not reclassified as profits and losses.

The dividends of equity instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses are recognized in the profit and loss when the rights of the company to receive payments are established, unless the dividend clearly represents the recovery of part of the investment cost.

  • (2) Impairment of financial assets

  • A. The company assesses the impairment losses of financial assets (including accounts receivable) measured at amortized cost based on expected credit losses on each balance sheet date.

  • B. Accounts receivable shall be recognized as an allowance loss based on the expected credit loss during the duration. For other financial assets, first assess whether the credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition. If there is no significant increase, the allowance loss is recognized based on the 12-month expected credit loss, and if it has increased significantly, it is recognized based on the lifetime expected credit loss Allowance for losses.

  • C. Expected credit loss is the weighted average credit loss based on the risk of default. The 12-

163

month expected credit loss refers to the expected credit loss caused by the possible default event of the financial instrument within 12 months after the reporting date, and the lifetime expected credit loss represents the expected credit loss caused by all possible default events during the expected lifetime of the financial instrument. The impairment loss of all financial assets is reduced by the allowance account.

  • (3) Delisting of financial assets

The company only lapses in the contractual rights from the cash flow of financial assets.

It has transferred the financial assets and almost all risks and reports of the ownership of the assets. When transferring to other enterprises, the financial assets are only delisted. When the financial assets measured at the amortized cost are delisted as a whole, their book amount is the difference between the consideration received is recognized in profit and loss. When the equity instrument investment measured at fair value through other comprehensive gains and losses is declassified as a whole, the accumulated gains and losses are directly transferred to the retained earnings are not reclassified as profit or loss.

  1. Financial liabilities and equity instruments

  2. (1) Classification of liabilities or equity

The debt and equity instruments issued by the amalgamating company are classified as financial liabilities or equity based on the substance of the contractual agreement and the definition of financial liabilities and equity instruments.

An equity instrument refers to any contract that recognizes the remaining equity of the company after deducting all its liabilities from its assets. The equity instruments issued are recognized by the company after the acquired price deducting the cost of direct issuance.

  • (2) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are not held for trading and are not designated as those measured at fair value through profit or loss (including payables). The initial recognition is based on fair value plus direct attributable transaction cost measurement; follow-up evaluation adopts effective interest rate method to amortize this measure.

  • (3) Delisting of financial liabilities

  • The company delists financial liabilities when contractual obligations have been fulfilled, cancelled, or expired debt.

When excluding financial liabilities, the difference between its book value and the total consideration paid or payable (including any transferred non-cash assets or liabilities assumed) is recognized as profit and loss.

(12) Liability provision

When the company has current obligations (statutory or constructive obligations) due to past events, and is likely to be required to pay off the obligations, and the amount of the obligations can be reliably estimated, the liability provision shall be recognized. The amount recognized as a liability reserve is based on the risk and uncertainty of the obligation, and is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date. The liability reserve is measured by discounting the estimated cash flow of the settlement obligation.

(13) Income recognition

After the company recognizes the performance obligations in the customer contract, it allocates the transaction price to each performance

obligations, and recognize income when each performance obligation is met. Commodity sales revenue

164

  1. Commodity sales revenue comes from the manufacture and sale of polarizers. Sales revenue is recognized when the control of the product is transferred to the customer, that is, when the product is delivered to the customer and the combined company has no outstanding performance obligations that may affect the customer's acceptance of the product. Because when the goods arrive at the customer's designated location, the customer has the right to set the price and use of the goods and bears the main responsibility for resale, and bears the risk of obsolescence and obsolescence of the goods, the merged company recognizes revenue and receivables at that point in time Accounts. The advance receipts received before the arrival of the goods are recognized as contract liabilities.

  2. Commodity sales revenue is measured by the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, and deducted estimated customer returns, discounts and other similar discounts. The combined company estimates possible sales returns and discounts based on historical experience and other known reasons, and recognizes them accordingly refund liabilities and related rights to return products.

(14) Rent

The company assesses whether the contract belongs to (or contains) a lease on the date of contract establishment.

  1. The merged company is the lessor

  2. When the lease term is to transfer almost all the risks and rewards attached to the ownership of the asset to the lessee classifies it as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating lease. When the company subleases the right-of-use asset, the right-of-use asset (not

  3. the underlying asset) is used to determine the classification of the sublease. However, if the main lease is a short-term when leasing, the sublease is classified as an operating lease.

Under operating leases, lease payments after deduction of lease incentives are recognized as income on a straight-line basis during the relevant lease period. The lease negotiation with the lessee is related to lease repair from the effective date of the change, it will be treated as a new lease.

  1. The company is the lessee

  2. Except for the lease payments of low-value underlying asset leases and short-term leases that are subject to the applicable recognition exemption, the lease payments are recognized as expenses during the lease period on a straight-line basis, and all other leases are opened in the lease. The right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized on the inception date.

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of the lease liabilities, adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs needed to dismantle, remove and restore the underlying assets and the subsequent measures are measured at the cost after deducting the accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, and the remeasurement amount of the lease liability is adjusted.

Except for those that meet the definition of investment real estate, right-of-use assets are separately expressed in the Individual balance sheet, and the recognition and balance of right-of-use assets that meet the definition of investment real estate, please refer to Note 4 (9) Accounting Policy for Investment Real Estate.

The right-of-use asset adopts a straight-line basis from the lease start date to the end of its useful life or the lease period expires, the earlier of the two shall be depreciated.

The lease liability was originally measured at the present value of the lease payment. If the implicit interest rate of the lease is easy to determine, the lease payment is discounted using that interest rate. If the interest rate is not easy to determine, use the lessee to increase the borrowing interest rate.

165

Subsequently, the lease liability is measured on the amortized cost basis using the effective interest method, and the interest expense is amortized during the lease period. If the lease period or the index or rate used to determine the lease payment changes resulting in a change in the future lease payment, the company will continue measure the lease liability and relatively

adjust the right-of-use asset. However, if the book value of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero, the remaining remeasured amount is recognized in the profit and loss. For lease modifications that are not treated as separate leases, the scope of the lease is reduced The remeasurement of the lease liability is to reduce the right-of-use asset and recognize the profit and loss of the partial or full termination of the lease; the remeasurement of the lease liability for other modifications is to adjust the right-of-use asset, and the lease liability is separately expressed in the Individual balance sheet.

The company and the lessor negotiated rents directly related to the COVID-19, adjusted the rents due before June 30, 2021, resulting in a decrease in rents. These negotiations did not materially change other lease terms. The company chooses to adopt practical expedients to handle all rental negotiations that meet the aforementioned conditions, and does not assess whether the negotiation is a lease modification, but recognizes the reduction of lease payments in the profit and loss when the concession event or situation occurs, and relatively reduces the lease debt.

(15) Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are measured by the expected non-discounted amount of cash paid, and are recognized as expenses when the relevant services are provided.

For the definite allocation plan, the amount of the retirement fund that should be allocated is recognized as the current pension expense on the basis of accrual. The advance payment is recognized as an asset within the scope of refundable cash or reduced future payments.

The net obligation under the definite benefit plan is calculated by discounting the amount of future benefits earned by the employee for the current or past services, and the current value of the definite benefit obligation on the balance sheet date minus the fair value of the plan assets. The net obligation to determine benefits is calculated by the actuary every year using the projected unit benefit method, and the discount rate is determined by referring to the market yield rate of high-quality corporate bonds that are consistent with the currency and period of the determined benefit plan on the balance sheet date; in highquality corporate bonds For countries with no deep market, the market yield rate of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) is used. The remeasurement amount generated by the determined benefit plan is recognized in other comprehensive profit and loss in the current period and included in the retained surplus. The related expenses of the previous service cost are immediately recognized as a loss.

Resignation benefits are benefits provided when the employee's employment is terminated before the normal retirement date or when the employee decides to accept the company's welfare invitation in exchange for termination of employment. The company recognizes expenses when the offer for resignation benefits can no longer be revoked or when the relevant reorganization costs are recognized earlier, and it is not expected that the benefits that are fully paid off within 12 months after the balance sheet date should be granted discount.

(16) Income taxes

1. Current income tax

The company determines the current income (loss), based on which to calculate the payable (recoverable) income tax.

The undistributed surplus calculated in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Law of

166

the Republic of China is subject to additional income tax, recognized by the resolution of the Shareholders’ annual meeting.

The adjustment of income tax payable in previous years is included in current income tax.

  1. Deferred income tax

Deferred income tax is calculated based on the temporary difference between the book value of assets and liabilities and the tax basis for calculating taxable income.

Deferred income tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, while deferred income tax assets are recognized when there is likely to be taxable income for deduction of temporary differences or loss deductions.

Taxable temporary differences related to investment in subsidiaries are recognized as deferred income tax liabilities, but if the company can control the timing of the reversal

of the temporary difference, and the temporary difference is likely to not revert in the foreseeable future except. The deductible temporary differences related to this type of investment are recognized as deferred income tax only if it is likely to have sufficient taxable income to realize the temporary difference, and within the scope of expected return in the foreseeable future assets.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed on each balance sheet date, and the carrying amount is reduced for those that are no longer likely to have sufficient taxable income to recover all or part of their assets. Those that were not previously recognized as deferred income tax assets are also reviewed on each balance sheet date and are likely to generate taxable income for the recovery of all or part of their assets in the future, increase the carrying amount.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured by the tax rate for the current period of expected debt settlement or asset realization. The tax rate is based on the tax rate and tax law that has been legislated or substantively legislated on the balance sheet date, and the deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured It reflects the tax consequences arising from the manner in which the company expects to recover or settle the book value of its assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date.

  • 3.Current and deferred income tax

Current and deferred income taxes are recognized in profit or loss, but current and deferred income taxes related to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly included in equity are recognized in other comprehensive profit or loss may be directly included in equity.

5. Critical Accounting Judgments and Key Sources of Estimation and Assumption Uncertainty

When the company adopts the accounting policies described in Note 4, for those

who cannot easily obtain information about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities from other sources, the management must base on historical experience And other relevant factors to make relevant judgments, estimates and assumptions. The estimates and related assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors deemed relevant. Actual results may differ from estimates. Estimates and basic assumptions are continuously reviewed. If the revision of the estimate only affects the current period, it shall be recognized in the current period of the revision of the accounting estimate. If the revision of the accounting estimate affects both the current period and the future period, it shall be recognized in the current period and the future period of the estimate revision. The main sources of uncertainties in major accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions of the company are as follows:

167

  • (1)Evaluation of inventories

  • Since inventory must be priced at the lower of cost and net realizable value, the merging company must use judgment and estimation to determine the net realizable value of the inventory at the end of the financial reporting period. Due to the rapid changes in the industry, the company assesses the amount of inventory at the end of the financial reporting period due to normal depletion, obsolescence, or no market sales value, and offsets the inventory cost to the net realizable value. This inventory evaluation is mainly based on the product demand in a specific period in the future, which may cause major changes.

  • (2)Estimated impairment of financial assets

  • The estimated impairment of accounts receivable is based on the assumption of default rate and expected loss rate of the company. The company considers historical experience, current market conditions and forward-looking information to make assumptions and select input values for impairment assessment. For important assumptions and input values used, please refer to Note 6 (4). If the actual future cash flow is less than expected, it may be incurred significant impairment losses.

  • (3)Assessment of impairment of non-financial assets

  • In the process of asset impairment assessment, the company must rely on subjective judgments and determine the independent cash flow of a specific asset group, the number of years of asset durability, and the possible future income and expenses of a specific asset group based on the use of assets and industrial characteristics. Changes or estimated changes brought about by the company's strategy may cause significant impairment or reversal of recognized impairment losses in the future.

  • (4)The realized of deferred income tax assets

  • Deferred income tax assets are recognized when there is likely to be sufficient taxable income in the future to deduct temporary differences. When assessing the feasibility of deferred income tax assets, significant accounting judgments and estimates of the management must be involved, including the expected future sales revenue growth and profit rate, tax exemption period, applicable income tax deductions and tax regulations and cost-effective assumption. Any changes in the global economic environment, industrial environment and laws and regulations may cause major adjustments to deferred income tax assets.

The company is exposed to the following risks due to the pension system of the Labor Standards Law:

  • (4) Investment risk: The Labor Fund Utilization Bureau of the Ministry of Labor invests labor retirement funds in domestic (foreign) equity securities through its own use and entrusted operations. Subject to debt securities and bank deposits, but in accordance with the provisions of the Labor Standards Law, the overall return on assets shall not be lower than the local bank’s 2-year fixed deposit interest rate: if the interest rate is lower than that, the state treasury shall make up for it.

  • (5) Interest rate risk: The decline in the interest rate of government bonds will increase the present

  • value of the determined welfare obligation, but the debt investment return of the planned asset will also increase. The two are in conflict and the impact of fixed benefit liabilities has a partial offset effect.

  • (6) Salary risk: The calculation of the present value of the defined benefit obligation is based on the future salary of the plan members. Therefore, the increase in the salary of the plan members will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

  4. d. Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

  5. e. Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices included within Level 1, inputs are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

  6. f. Level 3 inputs: Derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

  7. (3) For financial instruments measured at fair value on December 31, 2021, and 2020, the consolidated company depends on the nature, characteristics, risks and fair value levels of assets and liabilities. The relevant information is as follows:

  • (4) Valuation techniques and assumptions applied in fair value measurement The fair value of financial assets is determined in the following way: Since the investee company’s original investment date, the performance and operation of the investee company has not undergone any major changes, so the consolidated company uses the investment cost as the fair value estimated value.

  • (5) There was no change in the fair value of financial assets in 2021 and 2020.
