Audit Committee
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To: PCL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of PCL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including the summary of material accounting policies (together “the consolidated financial statements”).

Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. 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.

Valuation for slow-moving and obsolete inventories
As of December 31, 2025, the Group’s net inventories amounted to NT$231,608 thousand. As the high-tech industry evolves rapidly, the market value of the Group’s inventories may decline due to changes in customer’s needs, technology specification, etc. Management has to evaluate and accrue related reserves for slow-moving and obsolete inventories that have declining future markets values as the technology specification changes. The accounting estimates highly involve management’s judgement and the key assumptions for the provision rate and the range of aging of inventory are determined by considering the exclusivity, recyclability and timeliness of inventories, in the meanwhile, net realizable value of each inventory is also assessed, and the audit of valuation for inventories is complicated. Therefore, we identify it as key audit matter.
We performed audit procedures including but not limited to the following:
-
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internal control over the Group’s inventories valuation process. For instance, we tested the control of management’s review over the reserve methodology and the key assumptions in the valuation process.
-
We selected samples of inventories to test the accuracy of the inventory aging and evaluated the appropriateness of management’s methodology to determine inventory aging and provision rates by comparing the loss of slow-moving inventories with the records of sales and changes and recalculated the amount of reserve using the applied provision rate.

We selected samples of inventories to test the accuracy of the market values used to calculate the net realizable value by comparing them with the latest sales or purchase evidence.
In addition, we evaluated the appropriateness of disclosures of inventories. Please refer to Notes 5 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, Interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee or the former Standing Interpretations Committee as endorsed by Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the ability to continue as a going concern of the Group, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company and its subsidiaries or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
4
Those charged with governance, including audit committee or supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the internal control of the Company and its subsidiaries.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability to continue as a going concern of the Group. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the accompanying notes, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
5
- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of 2025 consolidated financial statements and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

PCL Technologies, Inc.
Evaluation Opinion on the Necessity and Rationality of Handling Private Equity Securities Plans
PCL Technologies, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as PCL or the company) On March 10, 2026, the board of directors resolved to proceed with the private placement of common shares (hereinafter referred to as the "current private placement"). The current private placement shall be formally implemented only after the resolution of the shareholders' meeting on June 8, 2026. According to the "Points for Attention for Public Companies Handling Private Placement of Securities", if there is a significant change in management rights within one year before the board of directors resolves to proceed with the private placement of securities and within one year from the delivery date of such securities, the securities underwriter shall be requested to issue an assessment opinion on the necessity and reasonableness of the private placement, which shall be included in the notice of the shareholders' meeting as a reference for shareholders' consent.
Due to the comprehensive reelection of directors at the shareholders' meeting of the company on June 16, 2025, where the number of director seats changed by more than one-third, and there was a significant change in management rights within one year prior to the private placement, which meets the criteria for significant changes in management rights as stipulated in Article 4, Paragraph 3 of the "Points for Attention for Public Companies Handling Private Placement of Securities," we hereby request this securities underwriter to issue an evaluation opinion on the necessity and reasonableness of the company's handling of this private placement case in accordance with the regulations.
The content of this opinion letter serves solely as a reference for the resolutions of the board of directors on March 10, 2026, and the shareholders' meeting on June 8, 2026, regarding this private placement case, and is not to be used for any other purposes. This opinion letter is based on the financial data provided by the company and the public information disclosed on the public information observatory. We hereby declare that we shall not be held legally responsible for any changes to the content of this opinion letter that may arise from future changes in the company's plans for this private placement case or other circumstances.
1、 The necessity and rationality evaluation of this private placement of securities
In order to introduce strategic investors to meet the capital needs for the company's long-term operational development in the future, PCL plans to conduct a domestic private placement for cash capital increase and issue common shares. The issuance limit is capped at no more than 10,000,000 shares, to be handled in four installments. This private placement is expected to be authorized to the board of directors after a resolution is passed at the shareholders' meeting. The basis for determining the issue price of the common shares in this private placement is based on the higher of the following two methods: "selecting one of the 1st, 3rd, or 5th business days prior to the pricing date to calculate the simple arithmetic average of the closing price of the common shares, deducting the ex-rights and ex-dividend of the free allotment shares, and adding back the anti-ex-rights after capital reduction, and the share price"; and "selecting the 30th business day prior to the pricing date to calculate the simple arithmetic average of the closing price of the common shares, deducting the ex-rights and ex-dividend of the free allotment shares, and adding back the anti-ex-rights after capital reduction, and the share price". The actual price will be set at no less than 80% of the reference price. The necessity and reasonableness of the company's private placement are explained as follows:
(1) The necessity of handling private equity
PCL was established in October 2007 and is registered in the British Cayman Islands, where it has no substantial economic activities. The main operating entities of the group are located in China and Malaysia. As a leading manufacturer specializing in the design and optoelectronic manufacturing services for global key optoelectronic transmission components mass production technology, it provides complete product process technology solutions. Its series of products include optical transceivers, fiber channel modules, optical receivers, and optical sub-module components, which are
Annex I
widely used in high-speed bandwidth transmission in fields such as network communication, cloud computing, wireless communication, and telecommunications equipment.
Cloud computing services rely on stable and high-bandwidth networks for data transmission, as well as large backend computing rooms or data centers for computation and storage. Therefore, in response to the significant increase in data transmission volume caused by consumers using cloud services, telecommunications operators have seen a substantial rise in the demand for updating or adding related communication transmission equipment. Meanwhile, network service providers, in order to provide cloud services to users, need to expand data centers to meet the centralized computing and storage demands arising from cloud computing. The storage area networks (SANs) established within these data centers utilize Fibre Channel technology for data transmission, further increasing the demand for optical communication components. According to a report by The Business Research Company, driven by the demand for data center expansion among cloud service providers, the global hyperscale data center market is estimated to grow from $120.9 billion in 2025 to $281.1 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.4%.
In recent years, various cloud services for the internet have emerged, including cloud based hard disk storage, online music and video playback, and cloud based image processing services. Users need to use cloud computing services regardless of their location, whether they are currently on the go or connected to the internet via a smartphone. Therefore, with the significant growth in demand for cloud computing in the internet, the size of the laser communication market has been increasing year by year. According to research firm KBV Research, the global fiber optic component market is estimated to reach $36.3 billion by 2027, with a compound annual growth rate of 8.1% from 2021 to 2027, and the overall market is maintaining a stable growth trend.
In recent years, with the rise of various cloud services on networks, including cloud hard drive storage, online music and video streaming, and cloud-based image processing, users require cloud computing services regardless of whether they are at a fixed location, on the move, or connecting to the internet via smartphones. Consequently, the substantial growth in demand for network cloud computing has also spurred the steady annual increase in the scale of the optical communication market. According to estimates by research firm KBV Research, the global optical fiber component market is projected to reach $36.3 billion by 2027, with a compound annual growth rate of 8.1% from 2021 to 2027, indicating a trend of stable market growth.
The company boasts years of research, development, and production experience in the field of optical communication components. Leveraging its exceptional optical component packaging and related production technologies, it has long assisted clients in mass-producing products to their required specifications. In response to the future demand for high-speed optical transceiver modules driven by the wave of data center construction and the commercialization of 5G mobile communications, the company will continue to invest in the research and development of related products, strive to reduce product costs, enhance product stability, and simultaneously develop other advanced products and technologies to diversify its product range and meet customer needs.
It is hoped that through collaboration with strategic investors via industrial vertical integration, horizontal integration, or joint research and development of products or markets, the company can enhance its technology, improve product quality, reduce costs, boost efficiency, expand its market share, rapidly elevate its product manufacturing and design capabilities, and continue to advance towards the deployment of high-end processes and product lines to increase product added value. In light of this, the introduction of strategic investors this time will not only meet the company's long-term capital requirements for future operational development but is also expected to strengthen its financial structure, enhance its competitiveness, and improve operational performance. Apart from the relatively quick, simple, and timely nature of this capital-raising method, it will also save interest expenses, avoid excessive reliance on borrowing from financial institutions, and increase flexibility in capital utilization. This will have a positive impact on future operations and profitability. Therefore, it is indeed necessary for the company to raise funds and introduce strategic investors by issuing common shares through private placement in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.
(2) Rationality of handling private placement
Annex I
Based on the proposal data from the company's board meeting held on March 10, 2026, the content of the agenda discussions, issuance procedures, determination of private placement prices, and methods for selecting specific individuals comply with the Securities and Exchange Act and relevant regulations, with no significant irregularities observed. After the board of directors approved this private placement on March 10, 2026, the company announced it on the same day. Furthermore, it plans to enumerate and explain matters related to the privately placed securities in the reasons for convening the general shareholders' meeting. Upon evaluation, its handling procedures are deemed lawful.
In terms of the reasonableness of the expected benefits, to achieve operational breakthroughs, the company needs to introduce capital to expand its operational scale, strengthen its financial structure, increase revenue, and generate profits. Considering the swift and straightforward nature of private placements, which facilitates the goal of attracting strategic investors, coupled with the regulation that privately placed securities cannot be freely transferred within three years, this ensures a long-term cooperative relationship between the company and strategic investors. Additionally, as the company must bear the transaction liquidity risk of privately placed securities, it is thus legally entitled to an appropriate proportion of liquidity premium compensation. Consequently, setting the issue price of this private placement of common shares at no less than 80% of the reference price is deemed reasonable. Furthermore, by authorizing the board of directors to handle private placements based on the company's actual operational needs, it will effectively enhance the company's mobility and flexibility in fundraising. Moreover, with the introduction of strategic investors, it will assist the company in exploring new markets and expanding its operational scale, which should positively contribute to the shareholders' equity of the company, making the expected benefits reasonable.
Regarding private placement subscribers, the selection criteria for subscribers in this private placement plan aim to identify strategic investors capable of assisting the company in enhancing its production and R&D capabilities, as well as expanding its range of new products. PCL hopes that by introducing strategic investors, it can leverage industrial horizontal integration or collaborative technological research to improve its technological capabilities, reduce costs, strengthen its competitiveness, and achieve stable operational growth. In summary, considering the intended use of funds and anticipated benefits of this private placement, the targeted investors, and the conditions for setting the subscription price, it is reasonable for the company to raise funds and introduce strategic investors through this private placement.
(3) The impact on the company's finances and shareholder equity
The company intends to use the funds raised from this private placement for capital expenditures or to bolster working capital, in order to meet the demands of future business growth. In addition to expanding operational scale and reducing capital costs, this will also strengthen the company's competitiveness and enhance operational efficiency. Therefore, with the timely and effective infusion of private placement funds, there will be positive effects on the company's overall financial position.
This time, the company has applied to its shareholders' meeting on June 8, 2026, for authorization to the board of directors to handle the private placement of common shares based on market conditions and the company's actual capital requirements. Currently, the company has 80,189,841 issued shares, including those from private placements of common shares for which public offerings have not yet been supplemented. After adding the 10,000,000 shares from this private placement, the total number of issued shares will reach a maximum of 90,189,841. The proportion of the total shares from this private placement to the post-placement equity is expected to be 11.09%. Furthermore, the company has been implementing corporate governance and introducing a professional manager system for years, and its main management team continues to operate normally. Therefore, the company's substantive management rights are not expected to undergo significant changes due to the comprehensive reelection of directors this time, and it will not have a significant impact on management rights. Additionally, this private placement can secure stable long-term capital and maintain financial flexibility. The regulation that privately placed securities cannot be freely transferred within three years will further ensure the long-term cooperation between the company and the aforementioned subscribers. The company is still actively seeking private placement targets. In the future, after conducting the private placement and introducing strategic investors, it is not expected to cause significant changes in management rights or have a negative impact on shareholders' equity.
Annex I
2、 Conclusion
In summary, PCL intends to introduce strategic investors by issuing common shares through private placement this time. In addition to raising funds necessary for future operational development, it can also enhance the company's competitiveness and improve operational performance by leveraging the experience, technology, or knowledge of the subscribers. Considering the timeliness of fundraising and the stable long-term equity participation cooperation, it will positively contribute to shareholders' equity. Therefore, it is indeed necessary and reasonable for the company to carry out this private placement.
In accordance with the "Guidelines for Public Companies Conducting Private Placements of Securities," this securities underwriter deems it necessary and reasonable for the company to proceed with this private placement, as resolved by the board of directors on March 10, 2026 (this private placement is subject to formal approval through a resolution at the shareholders' meeting on June 8, 2026).

-
In case a Shareholder who has submitted his votes by written ballot or electronic transmission intends to attend the general meeting in person, he shall, at least two (2) days prior to the date of the meeting revoke such vote by written ballot or electronic transmission and such revocation shall constitute a revocation of the proxy deemed to be given to the chairman of the general meeting pursuant to Article 68. If a Shareholder who has submitted his or her vote by way of electronic transmission pursuant to Article 67 does not submit such a revocation before the prescribed time, his or her vote by electronic transmission and the proxy deemed to be given to the chairman of the general meeting pursuant to Article 68 shall prevail.
If a Shareholder has submitted his or her vote by way of electronic transmission pursuant to Article 67, and has subsequently submitted a proxy appointing a person as his or her proxy to attend the general meeting on his or her behalf, the subsequent appointment of that person as his or her proxy shall be deemed to be a revocation of such Shareholder’s deemed appointment of the chairman of the general meeting as his or her proxy pursuant to Article 68 and the vote casted by that person subsequently appointed as his or her proxy shall prevail.
- In case the procedure for convening a general meeting or the method of adopting resolutions is in violation of the Law, Applicable Listing Rules or these Articles, a Shareholder may, within thirty (30) days from the date of the resolution, submit a petition to a competent court having proper jurisdiction, including, the Taipei District Court of the Republic of China if applicable, for revocation of such resolution.
