Annex 1
Business Report
I. 2018 Business Report
In review of year 2018, the black swan effect still remains its impact on the global economy which had resulted in volatile trading in the global stock markets and oil prices, as well as the crisis in EU. In addition, the China-United States trade war is disruptive for the world economy and global financial markets. As for the domestic market, the nine-in-one election ended at the end of last year and the uncertain factors during the election were eliminated. The sit on the fence buyers before the election have returned to the market and the market has been gradually recovering.
In the real estate market, the unfavorable factors such as the increasing of interest rates, the declining of child birth rate and restriction in the tax system, have impacted the economic growth and the housing market. However, the Company still remains its entrepreneurship spirit which is providing customers with excellent design and quality products during the economic upswing, and providing customers with competitiveness edge and high price–performanceratio products during the economic downfall. In recent years, the general public pays close attention to the issues in regard to earthquake and air pollution. The Company is continuously dedicated to improving its research and development, and we are committed to build a safe and secure home for our consumers. Our objectives are to create a smart, healthy, high quality and secure house with the element of cultural creativity, technology and art. Moreover, we diversify our reinvested business development in recent years, including the Uni-President International Tower, the W hotels, and the student dormitories at the National Taiwan and Cheng Kung University, which have brought stable rental revenue to the Company every year.
The construction projects that are completed this year include: Prince HuaWei in Taipei; PRINCE XIAN HENG, Prince County, W Epoch and Prince Hsin Fu in Taichung; Prince Jum Fon Huei and Prince WIN2-FUTURE in Tainan; and Prince Cloud Zone C in Kaohsiung. The company's annual revenue is NT$6.485 billion and the net profit of the period is NT$1.252 billion; the consolidated revenue is NT$11.855 billion and the consolidated net profit is NT$1,243 million.
II. Summary of the Current Business Plan
Looking forward to 2019, there will be still three black swan events, as witnessed by examples of the United States-China trade war, interest rate rise and the negative yield rate in the United States, all of which indicate the incoming of global economic storm. The United States-China trade war is the biggest economic uncertainty to the global financial markets. It not only affects the entire economy of the two sides of the Taiwan strait, but also affects the development of the real estate market in Taiwan. Furthermore, the incoming presidential election in 2020 will certainly affect the overall domestic economy to some extent.
As for the real estate market, the housing market has gradually stabilized
10
after the nine-in-one election. However, the three factors that will impact the future housing market include the high surplus amount of housing, high issuance of building occupation permits, and high issuance of future construction licenses, all of which will affect the recovery of the market and overall development of the housing market. However, the extension of the youth loan policy for two years and the fixed floating interest rate of 1.68% is offered to the first-time house purchaser, which are expected to effectively facilitate the development of the market. Moreover, the Company adopts a strategy of steady promotion on housing projects and we continuously improve our intelligent monitoring system for the reality management during the downturn period of the economy and housing market, so that we can effectively control the cost and enable more consumers to enjoy this system. At the same time, we also actively cultivate talents through educational trainings, to enhance the competitiveness of our employees and prepare for the future challenge in the industry. The construction projects of the Company that are expected to be completed in 2019 include: W Prince in Taipei and the project in Shuanglin section of ZhonglI. As for the reinvested business, in addition to continuously improve the business effectiveness of the hotel and the school dormitory, the Company has completed the acquisition of the hotel business for the future individual IPO of each business entity. The overall human resources are expected to be effectively integrated and thus the entire business operational efficiency can be enhanced.
III. Future Development Strategy
The company has been dedicated and committed to constructing wonderful houses that suit for each one of our customers. We hope our human-factors engineering construction projects can offer excellent feng-shui houses with warmth and intelligence to all of the Prince’s customers. At present, the fifteen directors (including three independent directors) in the Company's board of directors have experience in professional finance, accounting and business administration. Their responsibilities include appoint and supervise the Company's management team to protect the rights and interests of stakeholders and optimize the profits for shareholders. In the future, the specific promotion proposals will be stipulated to fulfill the inelastic demand of the market. The chairman Mr. Lo also proposes the business philosophy of “three-productelements enterprise”, which integrates the three product elements including the characteristic, brand image and unique taste into the Company's long-term vision.

CPA Audit Report (2019) Cai-Shen-Bao-Zi No. 18003569
Prince Housing and Development Corporation:
Audit Opinion
Prince Housing and Development Corporation and its subsidiaries’ (hereinafter referred to as “Prince Housing Group”) consolidated balance sheet as of December 31 of 2018 and 2017, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the period from January 1 to December 31 of 2018 and 2017, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated cash flow statement and notes to the consolidated financial statements (including the summary of major accounting policies) are reviewed by PwC Taiwan’s certified public accountants.
On the basis of the accountant’s opinion, in view of the audit results and the audit report of other accountants (please refer to the section of other matters), the major parts of the preceding consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, interpretations, and interpretation announcement which can be used to represent the consolidated financial status of the Prince Housing Group as of December 31 of 2018 and 2017, as well as the consolidated financial performance and the consolidated cash flow for the period from January 1 to December 31 of 2018 and 2017.
Basis of Audit
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) of the Republic of China. Under these standards, the accountants are responsible to further explain the accountability of the accountants on auditing the consolidated financial statements. In accordance with the independence requirements of the firm, we have required staff to maintained independence from Prince Housing Group and carried out their duties with respect to The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of ROC. We believe that our audits and the reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Key Audit Items
On the basis of the professional judgments of the accounts, the key audit items refer to the most important items in the audit process of the 2018 annual consolidated financial statements of the Prince Housing Group. While such items have been addressed when auditing the overall consolidated financial statements and the formation opinions, we will not express opinions on any particular items.
The key audit items in the 2018 consolidated financial statements of the Prince Housing Group are as follows:
Recognition time point of realty sale revenue
Description
19
Please refer to Note 4 (29) of the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policy of sales revenue. Please refer to Note 6 (23) of the consolidated financial statements for the description of accounting items. The real estate sales revenue of the Prince Housing Group in 2018 is NT$ 6,164,207, which accounts for 52.00% of the consolidated business operation revenue.
Sales revenues of the Group were recognized after transferring into costs and recognizing as profit/loss after the ownership transfer and the actual handover of property. As properties are sold to individual buyers, the accounting workflow often involves various handbook operating procedures including the transfer of ownership transfer and handover data among departments. This results in the appropriate time point of recognition near the closing date of the financial report period. Hence, we have set the recognition time point of sales revenues as one of the important audit items.
Responsive Audit Procedures
In response to the said key audit items, we have implemented the following responsive procedures:
-
To discern and assess the internal control procedures for the management’s recognition of revenue from realty sale; and to test if the process of recognition time point of realty sale is effectively implemented, including cross-examining the dates of ownership transfer and handover and the accuracy of accounting time point.
-
A cut-off test was conducted on the realty sale conducted within a particular period before and after the closing date of near the end of the financial report period. The test included cross-examining evidence including the land and building registration transcripts, realty deeds, and handover agreements signed by customers to verify if the revenue from realty sale was registered at the appropriate time.
Recognition of revenues from construction projects—Assessment of completion schedule
Description
Please refer to Note 4 (29) and 5 (2) of the individual financial statements for the accounting policy of construction contract and revenue recognition. Please refer to Note 6 (23) of the individual financial statements for the description of accounting items. The engineering project revenue of the Prince Housing Group in 2018 is NT$ 1,772,016, which accounts for 14.95% of the consolidated business operation revenue.
The revenues of the construction service offered by the Group are recognized according to the status of completion during the contract period. The status of completion has been calculated according to the percentage in the estimated total construction cost of the incurred cost by the closing date of financial report period of each project. The estimated total construction cost is based on the cost breakdown sheet produced according to the owner’s master design drawings and in consideration of increase or decrease of construction quantity resulted from an engineering change and the construction price and cost indices to estimate the costs invested in an outsourced contract, including labor and materials.
20
Due to the complexity of items for estimating the said total costs and frequent subjective judgments, high uncertainties are common, and the estimation of the total cost will affect the status of completion and the recognition of revenue from construction. Hence, we have set the estimation of the status of completion as one of the important items for auditing the Group’s revenue from construction.
Responsive Audit Procedures
In response to the said key audit items, we have implemented the following responsive procedures:
-
To discern the nature of operations and industry of the Group; assess the fairness of the internal operating procedures for estimating the total construction cost, including the procedures for determining the labor and material costs of individual project items; and examine the consistency of the estimation method.
-
To assess and test the internal control procedures affecting the change in the estimation of the total cost, including cross-examining the evidence regarding the increase or decrease of project items and important project estimates.
-
To interview supervisors and other appropriate staff for projects still under progress during the interview.
-
To obtain the profit and loss statement to implement related empirical procedures, including spot check of costs incurred in the period with the appropriate receipts (vouchers), spot check of the increase or decrease of project items with related evidence, and re-check of the percentage of project completion.
Others: Audits of other accountants
The financial reports of some subsidiaries and investments accounted for under the equity method included in the Group’s Consolidated Financial Statement were audited by other accountants. Hence, the opinions we expressed in the said Consolidated Financial Statement for the amounts listed in the financial statements of such companies has been made in accordance with the audit reports of other accountants. The total assets of the abovementioned companies (including the investments with the equity method) were NT$ 542,162 and NT$ 580,967 in thousands, respectively, which accounted for 1.07% and 1.16% of the total consolidated assets, respectively. The net operating revenue was NT$0 and NT$418 in thousands for the period from January 1 to December 31 of 2018 and 2017, respectively, and both of which accounted for 0% of the net consolidated operating revenue. The comprehensive income of the preceding investments with the equity method for the period from January 1 to December 31 of 2018 and 2017, were NT$2,623 and NT$21,888 in thousands, respectively, which accounted for 0.25% and 1.87% of the consolidated comprehensive income respectively.
Other matters – individual financial reports
Prince Housing and Development Corporation has prepared the individual financial reports for 2018 and 2017, and they have been audited with reports issued by the accountants without any withholding comments which are prepared and available for reference.
Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Management
21
and Governance Units
It is management’s responsibility to produce fairly expressed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, interpretations, and interpretations approved by FSC and to maintain the necessary internal controls relating to the production of such consolidated financial statements in order to ensure that no significant, untrue expressions as a result of corruption or errors are found in the consolidated financial statements.
When producing consolidated financial statements, it is also the management’s responsibility to assess the Group’s capacity to maintain business continuity, disclosure of related information, and choice of accounting basis for business continuity, except when the Group intends to liquidate or shut down operations, or there is no other feasible alternative other than liquidation or closure.
It is the responsibility of the Group’s governance units (including the Audit Committee) to supervise the workflow of financial reporting.
Accountant’s responsibility for auditing consolidated financial statements
It is our responsibility to audit the Group’s consolidated financial statements to provide reasonable assurance in an audit report that no significant, untrue expression as a result of corruption or errors is found in such consolidated financial statements. Reasonable assurance refers to high assurance. However, the detection of significant, untrue expressions in the consolidated financial statements is not guaranteed when audits are implemented based on the GAAP of the Republic of China. Untrue expression as a result of corruption or errors Untrue expressions of individual amounts or sums are significant when they can reasonably affect the economic policy made by the users off consolidated financial statements.
When auditing based on the GAAP of the Republic of China, we have applied professional judgments and maintained professional doubts. Other tasks of accountants
-
To identify and assess significant, untrue expressions of risks as a result of corruption or errors in consolidated financial statements; to plan and implement appropriate countermeasures for the risks assessed; and obtain adequate and appropriate audit evidence as the basis for making audit expressions. While corruption may involve collusions, forgeries, willful omissions, untrue declarations, or overstep of internal controls, the risk caused by significant, untrue expressions as a result of corruption is higher than that of errors.
-
To understand internal controls required for audits in order to design audit procedures appropriate to the situation of audit, provided that such an understanding does not intend to express opinions on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal controls.
-
To assess the suitability of the accounting policy adopted by the management and the fairness of its accounting estimation and related disclosures.
-
To conclude if there are significant uncertainties regarding the suitability of the accounting basis adopted by the management to maintain business continuity and the potential significant doubtful incidents or situations within the Group’s capacity to maintain business continuity based on the obtained audit evidence. After determining that there are significant
22
uncertainties in such incidents or situations, we shall remind in the audit report the users of such consolidated financial statements to pay attention to related disclosures in such consolidated financial statements, or shall we express a modified opinion where such disclosures are inappropriate. We have made conclusions based on the audit basis obtained by the audit report date. However, future incidents or situations may incapacitate the Group from business continuity.
-
To assess the overall expression, structure and contents of consolidated financial statements (including related notes) and the fair expression of related transactions and incidents in such consolidated financial statements.
-
To gather adequate and suitable audit evidence of the financial information of individuals within the Group to express opinions on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible to instruct, supervise and implement the audit of the Group and conclude the audit opinions on the Group.
We have communicated the government units on items including the scope and time planned for the audit and important audit findings (including the significant defects identified through internal control during the audit).
We have also provided the governance units with the statement of independence of our staff made in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China. We have also communicated with the governance units on the relations and other items (including related protective measures) that may affect the independence of accountants.
The accountant decides the key audit items for auditing the 2018 annual consolidated financial statements of the Prince Housing Group according to the matters discussed and communicated with the governing units. We have also specified in the audit report that we will not communicate specific items in the audit report when there are reasons to believe that such communication may cause negative impacts more than positive public interest, except for specific items not allowed for disclosures by law or under extremely rare circumstances.

Annex 8
CPA Audit Report (2019) Cai-Shen-Bao-Zi No. 18003221
Prince Housing and Development Corporation:
Audit Opinion
Prince Housing and Development Corporation's individual balance sheet as of December 31 of 2018 and 2017, and individual comprehensive income statement, individual equity change statement, individual cash flow statement and the notes to the individual financial statements (including the summary of major accounting policies) for the period from January 1 to December 31 of 2018 and 2017, all of which are reviewed and audited by the certified public accountant.
On the basis of the accountant’s opinion, in view of the audit results and the audit report of other accountants (please refer to the section of other matters), the major parts of the preceding individual financial statements are prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” which can be used to represent the individual financial status of the Prince Housing Group as of December 31 of 2018 and 2017, as well as the individual financial performance and the individual cash flow for the period from January 1 to December 31 of 2018 and 2017.
Basis of Audit
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) of the Republic of China. Under these standards, the accountants are responsible to further explain the accountability of the accountants on auditing the consolidated financial statements. In accordance with the independence requirements of the firm, we have required staff to maintained independence from Prince Housing and Development Corporation and carried out their duties with respect to The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China. We believe that our audits and the reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Key Audit Items
On the basis of the professional judgments of the accounts, the key audit items refer to the most important items in the audit process of the 2018 annual individual financial statements of the Prince Housing Group. While such items have been addressed when auditing the overall individual financial statements and the formation opinions, we will not express opinions on any particular items.
The key audit items in the 2018 individual financial statements of the Prince Housing Group are as follows:
Recognition time point of realty sale revenue Description
Please refer to Note 4 (28) of the individual financial statements for the accounting policy of sales revenue. Please refer to Note 6 (23) of the individual financial statements for the description of accounting items. The real estate sales revenue of Prince Housing and Development Corporation in 2018 is NT$ 5,742,428, which accounts for 88.55% of the business operation revenue.
Sales revenue of Prince Housing and Development Corporation was recognized after
31
transferring into costs and recognizing as profit/loss after the ownership transfer and the actual handover of property. As property of Prince Housing and Development Corporation are sold to individual buyers, the accounting workflow often involves various handbook operating procedures including the transfer of ownership transfer and handover data among departments. This results in the appropriate time point of recognition near the closing date of the financial report period. Hence, we have set the recognition time point of sales revenues as one of the important audit items.
Responsive Audit Procedures
In response to the said key audit items, we have implemented the following responsive procedures:
-
To discern and assess the internal control procedures for the management’s recognition of revenue from realty sale; and to test if the process of recognition time point of realty sale is effectively implemented, including cross-examining the dates of ownership transfer and handover and the accuracy of accounting time point.
-
A cut-off test was conducted on the realty sale conducted within a particular period before and after the closing date of near the end of the financial report period. The test included cross-examining evidence including the land and building registration transcripts, realty deeds, and handover agreements signed by customers to verify if the revenue from realty sale was registered at the appropriate time.
Investments accounted for under the equity method: The income from construction projects is recognized by assessing the percentage of completion of projects undertaken by Ta Cheng Construction and Engineering Corporation, a subsidiary in possession of subsidiary Honesty Investment Holdings Co., Ltd.
Description
Please refer to Note 4 (12) of the individual financial statements for the accounting policy of equity method investment. Please refer to Note 6 (7) of the individual financial statements for the description of accounting items.
While Ta Cheng Construction and Engineering Corporation is an important subsidiary of Prince Housing and Development Corporation invested via subsidiary Honesty Investment Holdings Co., Ltd., the financial performance of Ta Cheng Construction and Engineering has important influence on the financial statements of Prince Housing and Development Corporation.
The revenue of the construction service offered by Ta Cheng Construction and Engineering is recognized according to the status of completion during the contract period. The status of completion has been calculated according to the percentage in the estimated total construction cost of the incurred cost by the closing date of financial report period of each project. The estimated total construction cost is based on the cost breakdown sheet produced according to the owner’s master design drawings and in consideration of increase or decrease of construction quantity resulted from an engineering change and the construction price and cost indices to estimate the costs invested in an outsourced contract, including labor and materials.
Due to the complexity of items for estimating the said total costs and frequent subjective judgments, high uncertainties are common, and the estimation of the total cost will affect the status of completion and the recognition of revenue from construction. Hence, we have set the
32
estimation of the status of completion as one of the important items for auditing the revenue from construction of Ta Cheng Construction and Engineering.
Responsive Audit Procedures
In response to the said key audit items, we have implemented the following responsive procedures:
-
To discern the nature of operations and industry of Ta Cheng Construction and Engineering; assess the fairness of the internal operating procedures for estimating the total construction cost, including the procedures for determining the labor and material costs of individual project items; and examine the consistency of the estimation method.
-
To assess and test the internal control procedures affecting the change in the estimation of the total cost of Ta Cheng Construction and Engineering, including cross-examining the evidence regarding the increase or decrease of project items and important project estimates.
-
To interview supervisors and other appropriate staff of Ta Cheng Construction and Engineering for projects still under progress during the interview.
-
To obtain the profit and loss statement of Ta Cheng Construction and Engineering to implement related empirical procedures, including spot check of costs incurred in the period with the appropriate receipts (vouchers), spot check of the increase or decrease of project items with related evidence, and re-check of the percentage of project completion.
Others: Audits of other accountants
The financial reports of investments accounted for under the equity method included in the Individual Financial Statement of Prince Housing and Development Corporation not audited by this firm were audited by other accountants. Hence, the opinion we express in the said Individual Financial Statement for the amounts listed in the financial statements of such companies has been made in accordance with the audit reports of other accountants. The investment amount of the preceding company using the equity method for the period from January 1 to December 31 of 2018 and 2017, were NT$ 285,763 and NT$ 147,765 in thousands, respectively, which accounted for 0.66% and 0.34% of the total individual assets respectively. The comprehensive income of the preceding company for the period from January 1 to December 31 of 2018 and 2017, were NT$ 12,014 and NT$ 650 in thousands, respectively, which accounted for 1.15 % and 0% of the comprehensive income respectively.
Responsibility for the Individual Financial Statements of the Management and Governance Units
It is the management’s responsibility to produce fairly expressed individual financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and to maintain the necessary internal controls relating to the production of such individual financial statements in order to ensure that no significant, untrue expression as a result of corruption or errors is found in individual financial statements.

It is the responsibility of the governance units (including the Audit Committee) of Prince Housing and Development Corporation to supervise the workflow of financial reporting.
33
Accountant’s responsibility for auditing individual financial statements
It is our responsibility to audit the individual financial statements to
provide reasonable assurance in an audit report that no significant, untrue expression as a result of corruption or errors is found in such individual financial statements. Reasonable assurance refers to high assurance. However, the detection of significant, untrue expressions in the individual financial statements is not guaranteed when audits are implemented based on the GAAP of the Republic of China. Untrue expression as a result of corruption or errors Untrue expressions of individual amounts or sums are significant when they can reasonably affect the economic policy made by the users off consolidated financial statements.
When auditing based on the GAAP of the Republic of China, we have applied professional judgments and maintained professional doubts. Other tasks of accountants.
-
To identify and assess significant, untrue expressions of risks as a result of corruption or errors in individual financial statements; to plan and implement appropriate countermeasures for the risks assessed; and obtain adequate and appropriate audit evidence as the basis for making audit expressions. While corruption may involve collusions, forgeries, willful omissions, untrue declarations, or overstep of internal controls, the risk caused by significant, untrue expressions as a result of corruption is higher than that of errors.
-
To understand internal controls required for audits in order to design audit procedures appropriate to the situation of audit, provided that such an understanding does not intend to express opinions on the effectiveness of the internal controls of Prince Housing and Development Corporation.
-
To assess the suitability of the accounting policy adopted by the management and the fairness of its accounting estimation and related disclosures.
-
To conclude if there are significant uncertainties regarding the suitability of the accounting basis adopted by the management to maintain business continuity and the potential significant doubtful incidents or situations within the capacity to maintain business continuity of Prince Housing and Development Corporation based on the obtained audit evidence. After determining that there are significant uncertainties in such incidents or situations, we shall remind in the audit report the users of such individual financial statements to pay attention to related disclosures in such individual financial statements, or shall we express a modified opinion where such disclosures are inappropriate. We have made conclusions based on the audit basis obtained by the audit report date. However, future incidents or situations may incapacitate Prince Housing and Development Corporation from business continuity.
-
To assess the overall expression, structure and contents of individual financial statements (including related note) and the fair expression of related transactions and incidents in such individual financial statements.
-
To gather adequate and suitable audit evidence of the financial information of individuals within Prince Housing and Development Corporation to express opinions on the individual
34
financial statements. We are responsible to instruct, supervise and implement the audit of Prince Housing and Development Corporation and conclude the audit opinions on the company.
We have communicated the government units on items including the scope and time planned for the audit and important audit findings (including the significant defects identified through internal control during the audit).
We have also provided the governance units with the statement of independence of our staff made in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China. We have also communicated with the governance units on the relations and other items (including related protective measures) that may affect the independence of accountants.
The accountant decides the key audit items for auditing the 2018 annual individual financial statements of the Prince Housing and Development Corporation according to the matters discussed and communicated with the governing units. We have also specified in the audit report that we will not communicate specific items in the audit report when there are reasons to believe that such communication may cause negative impacts more than positive public interest, except for specific items not allowed for disclosures by law or under extremely rare circumstances.
