  • 1-

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

Phihong Technology Co., Ltd.

Opinion

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

In our opinion, the accompanying 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 the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, Rule No. 1090360805 issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China on February 25, 2020, and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of Company in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

The key audit matter identified in the audit of Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 is as follows.

  • 2-

The Accuracy of Sales Revenue from Telecom Brand Operation

Description of the key audit matter:

The turbulent fluctuation regarding the sales of customers of our telecom brand operation resulted in impacts on the sales of Company for the year; therefore, we identified the authenticity of sales revenue from the telecom brand operation as a key audit matter. Refer to Note 4 to the accompanying financial statements for the related disclosures.

Our audit procedures performed in respect of the key audit matter include the following: We understood the internal control related to the Company’s recognition of sales revenue and evaluated the design of key control. We determined whether the key control has been implemented and tested the operating effectiveness of key control. We sample tested transactions, reviewed the records of correspondence and reviewed significant subsequent sales returns and allowances of sales revenue from the telecom brand operation to confirm its existence.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern, and using the going concern basis of accounting, unless the management either intends to liquidate Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including the audit committee, are responsible for overseeing Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material

  • 3-

if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

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

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the 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.

  • 4-

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 the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Ker-Chang Wu and Kuo-Tien Hung.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  • a. Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

  • b. Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value and net defined benefit liabilities which are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets.

The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, are described as follows:

  • 1) Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

  • 2) Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

  • 3) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for an asset or liability.

  • 14-

When preparing the financial statements, the Company adopted the equity method to account for its investments in subsidiaries and associates. In order to enable the amounts of the net profit for the year, other comprehensive income for the year, and total equity in the financial statements to be the same as the ones attributable to the owners of the Company in its consolidated financial statements, regarding the differences arising from accounting treatments between the parent company only basis and the consolidation basis, adjustments were made to the investments accounted for using the equity method, the share of profit or loss of equity-accounted subsidiaries and associates, the share of other comprehensive income of equity-accounted subsidiaries and associates, as well as relevant equity items, as appropriate, in the financial statements.

  • c. Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities

Current assets include:

  • 1) Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • 2) Assets realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and

  • 3) Cash or cash equivalents (excluding assets restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date).

Current liabilities include:

  • 1) Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • 2) Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the balance sheet date (liabilities with long-term refinancing or rearrangement of payment terms completed after the balance sheet date and before the release of the financial statements); and

  • 3) Liabilities with a repayment deadline that cannot be unconditionally deferred for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date. However, the terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.

  • d. Foreign currencies

In preparing the Company’s financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency (i.e. foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates.

  • 15-

On each balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing on that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. The resulting exchange difference is recognized in profit or loss. For items whose changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income, the resulting exchange difference is recognized in other comprehensive income.

Non-monetary items measured at historical cost that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates and are not retranslated.

When preparing the financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations (including subsidiaries and associates that operate in countries or adopt functional currencies different from the Company) are translated into New Taiwan dollars. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting currency exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

e. Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials, supplies, finished goods and work in process and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at the weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date. The cost calculation is generally accounted for based on the standard cost, and the differences incurred at the end of the period are allocated to inventories and cost of sales.

f. Investment in subsidiaries

The Company adopts the equity method to account for its investments in subsidiaries.

A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the Company.

Under the equity method, investments are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of its

  • 16-

subsidiaries. In addition, changes in the Company’s other equity of its subsidiaries are recognized based on its ownership percentage.

Changes in the Company’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Company losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the carrying amount of an investment and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.

When the Company’s share of losses of a subsidiary exceeds its equity in said subsidiary (which includes any carrying amount of the investment accounted for by the equity method and long-term equity that, in substance, forms part of the Company’s net investment in said subsidiary), the Company continues recognizing its share of further losses.

When the Company assesses the impairment, it considers the cash-generating unit as a whole in the financial statements and compares its recoverable amount with the carrying amount. If the recoverable amount of an asset increases subsequently, the reversal of the impairment loss shall be recognized in gains, but the carrying amount of the asset after the reversal of the impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount of the asset less amortization without impairment loss recognized.

When the Company loses control over a subsidiary, it measures its remaining investment in said subsidiary based on the fair value on the day when control is lost. The fair value of the remaining investment and the difference between any disposal price and the carrying amount of the investment on the day when control is lost are recognized in profit or loss for the period. In addition, all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income related to said subsidiary are accounted for on the same basis as the one adopted for the Company’s direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities.

The unrealized profit or loss on downstream transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated in the financial statements. Profit or loss on downstream and lateral transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries is recognized in the financial statements only to the extent that it does not affect the Company’s interests in the subsidiaries.

g. Investments in associates

An associate is an entity on which the Company has significant influence and is not a subsidiary.

The Company adopts the equity method to account for its investments in associates.

  • 17-

Under the equity method, investments in an associate are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate. The Company also recognizes the changes in the Company’s share of the equity of associates based on the percentage of ownership.

When the Company’s share of losses on an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate (including any carrying amount of the investment accounted for using the equity method and other long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company’s net investment in the associate), the Company discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses and liabilities are recognized only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal obligations, or constructive obligations, or made payments on behalf of said associate.

The entire carrying amount of an investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized is not allocated to any asset, including goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized only to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

When an entity transacts with its associate, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate is recognized in the Company’s financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate of parties that are not related to the Company.

  • h. Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recognized at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.

Property, plant and equipment in the course of construction are measured at cost less any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. Such assets are depreciated and classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for their intended use.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recognized using the straight-line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The Company at least estimates the useful lives, residual values, and depreciation methods at the end of each reporting period, with the effects of any changes in the estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.

  • 18-

When derecognizing property, plant and equipment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset shall be recognized in loss or profit.

i. Intangible assets

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Intangible assets are amortized using straight-line method over the useful lives. The Company conducts at least one annual review at the end of each year to assess the estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization methods, while applying the effects of changes in accounting estimates prospectively. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are recognized at cost less accumulated impairment loss.

When derecognizing intangible assets, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in loss or profit.

  • j. Impairment of property, plant, and equipment as well as right-of-use and intangible assets

The Company assesses if there are any signs of possible impairment in property, plant, and equipment as well as right-of-use and intangible assets on each balance sheet date. If there is any sign of impairment, an estimate is made of its recoverable amount. If it is not possible to determine the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually and whenever there is a sign that the assets may be impaired.

The recoverable amount is the fair value less cost of sales or its value in use, whichever is higher. If the recoverable amount of individual asset or the cash-generating unit is lower than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to the 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 the cash-generating unit is increased to the revised recoverable amount, provided that the increased carrying amount shall not exceed the carrying amount (less amortization or depreciation) of the asset or cash-generating unit, which was not recognized as impairment loss in prior years. The impairment loss reversed is recognized in profit or loss.

  • 19-

k. Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities shall be recognized in the balance sheet when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Financial assets and financial liabilities not at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities. The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss is immediately recognized in profit or loss.

1) Financial assets

Regular trading of financial assets shall be recognized and derecognized in accordance with trade date accounting.

  • a) Measurement categories

Financial assets held by the Company are those measured at amortized cost, as well as investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).

  • i. Financial assets at amortized cost

When the Company’s investments in financial assets meet the following two conditions simultaneously, they are classified as financial assets at amortized cost:

  • i) The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and

  • ii) The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost, including cash and cash equivalents, financial assets at amortized cost, notes receivable at amortized cost, trade receivables, trade receivables from related parties, other receivables, other receivables from related parties and refundable deposits, are measured at amortized cost, which equals to gross carrying amount determined

  • 20-

by the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.

Interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate by the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.

Cash equivalents include time deposits with original maturities within 3 months from the date of acquisition, which are highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.

  • ii. Investments in equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (i.e. FVTOCI)

On initial recognition, the Company may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation as at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.

Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the equity investments; instead, it will be transferred to retained earnings.

Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Company’s right to receive the dividends is established, unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.

  • b) Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses the impairment loss of financial assets at amortized cost (including trade receivable) based on the expected credit loss on each balance sheet date.

Trade receivable are recognized in allowance loss based on the lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs). Other financial assets are first assessed based on whether the credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition. If there is no significant increase

  • 21-

in the risk, a loss allowance is recognized at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs. If the risks have increased significantly, a loss allowance is recognized at an amount equal to ECLs.

The ECLs refer to the weighted average credit loss with the risk of default as the weight. The 12-month ECLs represent the ECLs from possible defaults of a financial instrument within 12 months after the reporting date. The lifetime ECLs represent the ECLs from all possible defaults in a financial instrument over the expected life of a financial instrument.

For the purpose of internal credit risk management, the Company, without considering the collateral held, determines that the following situations represent defaults in the financial assets:

  • i. Internal or external information indicates that it is impossible for the debtor to settle the debt.

  • ii. It is overdue for more than 180 days, unless there is reasonable and corroborative information showing that a default date postponed is more appropriate.

The Company recognizes an impairment loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account.

c) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash inflow from the financial asset expire or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.

On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the consideration received is recognized in profit or loss. When derecognizing an investment in equity instrument at FVTOCI in its entirety, the cumulative profit or loss is transferred directly to retained earnings and is not reclassified to profit or loss.

  • 22-

2) Equity instruments

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of financial liabilities and equity instruments.

Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of the cost of direct issue.

The repurchase of the Company’s own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. The purchase, sale, issuance, or cancellation of the Company’s own equity instruments is recognized in profit or loss.

3) Financial liabilities

All of the Company’s financial liabilities are at amortized cost in the effective interest method. The Company derecognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged, canceled, or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.

l. Provision

The amount recognized in provision 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 warranty obligations of the Company under the sales contract are based on the management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Company’s obligations, and are recognized when the relevant products are recognized in revenue.

m. Revenue recognition

After the Company identifies its performance obligations in contracts with customers, it allocates the transaction costs to each obligation in the contracts and recognizes revenue upon completion of performance obligations.

Revenue from sale of goods

  • 23-

Revenue from the sale of goods comes from sales of power supply modules and other relevant products. When the power supply modules and other relevant products are delivered to the location designated by customers, customers have the right to determine the price and the way the products are used while bearing the main responsibility for resale and the risk of obsolescence; thus, revenue and trade receivable are recognized concurrently.

  • n. Leasing

At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is (or contains) a lease.

  • 1) The Company as lessor

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of a lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

  • 2) The Company as lessee

The repurchase of the Company’s own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted from equity. The purchase, sale, issuance, or cancellation of the Company’s own equity instruments is not recognized in profit or loss.

Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities adjusted for lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs needed to restore the underlying assets, and less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the balance sheets.

A right-of-use asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the period from the lease commencement date to the end of its useful life, or to the end of the lease term, whichever is earlier.

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, which comprise fixed payments, in-substance fixed payments, and variable lease payments which depend on an index or a rate. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in a lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate.

  • 24-

Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease terms. When there is a change in a lease term, or a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Company remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use-assets. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero, any remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the balance sheets.

Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

o. Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to an acquisition, construction, or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of said assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

Other than that which is stated above, all other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

p. Government grants

Government grants are not recognized until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to them and that the grants will be received.

Government grants related to income are recognized in the reduction of underlying costs and other income on a systematic basis during the periods in which the Company recognizes the relevant costs, for which the grants are intended to compensate, as expenses.

If government grants are used to compensate expenses or losses incurred, or are given to the Company for the purpose of immediate financial support without relevant future costs, they are recognized in profit or loss in the period when the grants become available.

  • 25-

q. Employee benefits

  • 1) Short-term employee benefits

Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related service.

  • 2) Post-employment benefits

For pension under the defined contribution plan, the amount of pension contributed is recognized as expenses during employees’ service period.

The defined benefit cost under the defined benefit pension plan (including service cost, net interest, and remeasurement) is calculated based on the projected unit credit method. The service cost (including the service cost for the current period) and the net interest of net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are recognized as employee benefit expenses as they occur. The remeasurement (including actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, net of interest) is recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in retained earnings when it occurs, and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.

The net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are the deficit (surplus) of the defined benefit pension plan. The net defined benefit assets may not exceed the present value of any refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan.

  • r. Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

  • 1) Current income tax

A surtax is imposed on the undistributed earnings pursuant to the Income Tax Act of the Republic of China (R.O.C.) is recognized via the resolution at the annual shareholders’ meeting.

Adjustments to income tax payable from prior years are recognized in the current income tax.

  • 2) Deferred income tax

  • 26-

Deferred income tax is calculated based on the temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable income.

Deferred income tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized when there are likely to be taxable income to deduct temporary differences, loss carryforwards, research and development expenditure.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that said temporary difference will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. The deductible temporary differences related to said investments are recognized as deferred income tax only if it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences, and they are expected to be reversed in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at each balance sheet date and recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable income will allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates in the period in which the liabilities are expected to be settled or assets realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the balance sheet date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

3) Rent and deferred income tax

Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity; in which case, the current and deferred taxes are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

  • 27-

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ASSUMPTIONS, AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, the management is required to make judgments, estimations, and assumptions about the relevant information that is not readily accessible from other sources based on historical experience and other relevant factors. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The Company includes the possible effects of the outbreak of COVID-19 on the development and economic environment in Taiwan into consideration of major accounting estimates, including cash flow estimation, growth rate, discount rate, and profitability. Management will continue to monitor, make estimations, and provide basic assumptions. If the revision of the estimate only affects the current period, it will be recognized in the current period of the revision; if the revision of the accounting estimate affects both the current period and the future period, it will be recognized in the current period and the future period of the revision.

The Company invested in the above-mentioned unlisted equity for medium to long-term strategic purposes, and expected to make profits in a long term. Accordingly, the management elected to designate these investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI as they believe that recognizing short-term fluctuations in these investments’ fair value in profit or loss would not be consistent with the Company’s strategy of holding these investments for long-term purposes.

For the Company’s average credit period for the sale of goods, the statistics for the average credit period are prepared according to the experience of trade receivables collection regarding the non-related parties for the past five years, and no interest accrued for trade receivables during the credit period. The Company adopted a policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved

  • 29-

counterparties. Credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the risk management specialists annually.

The Company recognized the loss allowance for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. The ECLs on trade receivables were estimated using a provision matrix with reference to customers’ past default records, current financial position, and other forward-looking information. Based on the Company’s history of credit losses, as there was no significant difference in the loss patterns among different customer groups, the customer groups were not further differentiated in the provision matrix, and only the ECLs rate was set based on the number of days for which trades receivable were past due.

The Company writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery. For trade receivables that have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in profit or loss.

Due to the pension plans under the Labor Standards Act, the Company is exposed to the following risks:

  • 1) Investment risk: The Bureau invests labor pension funds in domestic (foreign) equity securities, debt securities, and bank deposits on its own use and through agencies entrusted. However, the Company’s amount allocated to plan assets is calculated based on the interest rate not lower than the local bank’s interest rate for 2-year time deposits.

  • 2) Interest risk: A decrease in the interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation. However, the return on the debt investment through the plan assets will also increase, and the increases will partially offset the effect the net defined benefit liability.

  • 3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated with reference to the future salaries of the participants in the plan. As such, an increase in the salary of the participants in the plan will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The critical assumptions made on the measurement date are as follows:

Discount rate
Expected salary increase rate
December 31, 2021
0.500%
3.5%
December 31, 2020
0.500%
3.5%

If each of the critical actuarial assumptions is subject to reasonably possible changes, when all other assumptions remain unchanged, the amounts by which the present value of the defined benefit obligation would increase (decrease) are as follows:

Discount rate
0.25% increase
0.25% decrease
Expected salary increase rate
0.25% increase
0.25% decrease
December 31, 2021

$3,708
($3,587)
December 31, 2020
($3,848)
$4,007
$3,827
($3,698)

As actuarial assumptions may be correlated, it is unlikely that only a single assumption would occur in isolation of one another, so the sensitivity analysis above may not reflect the actual changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

Fully paid ordinary shares, which have a par value of NT$10, carry one vote per share and carry a right to dividends.

Considering the long-term cooperating relationships with strategic investors, healthy financial structure, and improvement in operating efficacy, the Company passed the resolution for the private offering of ordinary shares at the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting on December 16, 2021 to, within the limit of 37,520 thousand shares, authorize the board of directors to organize the private offering of ordinary shares in two batches within one year from the date of the resolution made at the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting. The Company approved the communication with particular subscribers at the board meeting on December 22, 2021, and set December 24, 2021 as the base date for the capital increase to issue 37,520 thousand ordinary shares under private offering. The establishment of the price for the ordinary shares under the private offering adopted the following standards for calculation: (a) the calculation of the simple average closing price of the ordinary shares for either the 1, 3, or 5 business days before the pricing date, after adjustment for any distribution of stock dividends, cash dividends or capital reduction; or (b) the calculation of the simple average closing price of the ordinary shares for the 30 business days before the pricing date, after adjustment for any distribution of stock dividends, cash dividends, or capital reduction; with the higher of the two as the reference price, the reference price for the private offering is NT$44.73 per share; the subscription price payable of NT$40.26 per share was established based on 90% of the reference price. The capital increase through the private offering of ordinary shares mentioned above was completed on December 24, 2021, and was submitted to Department of Commerce, MOEA, for the alteration registration of capital on January 3, 2022.

The capital surplus arising from shares issued in excess of par (including share premium from issuance of common shares, conversion of bonds and treasury share transactions) and donations, may be used to offset a deficit. In addition, when the Company has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to share capital (limited to a certain percentage of the Company’s capital surplus and once a year).

c. Retained earnings and dividend policy

Under the dividend policy as set forth in the amended Articles, where the Company made profit in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for paying taxes, offsetting losses of previous years, setting aside as legal reserve of 10% of the remaining profit, setting aside or reversing a special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings shall be used by the Company’s board of directors as the basis for proposing a distribution plan, which should be resolved in the shareholders’ meeting for the distribution of dividends and bonuses to shareholders. For the policies on the distribution of employees’ compensation and remuneration of directors and supervisors after the amendment, refer to “Employees’ compensation and remuneration of directors and supervisors” in Note 20-g.

Appropriation of earnings to legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Company’s paid-in capital. The legal reserve may be used to offset deficit. If the Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.

If undistributed earnings in the previous period are insufficient to set aside the special reserve, the Company shall include income after tax for the current period, plus items other than income after tax, in the undistributed earnings for the current period.

  • 43-

The Company held shareholders’ meetings on July 30, 2021 and June 10, 2020, where the deficit compensation for 2020 and 2019 respectively was passed as follows:

Legal reserve Deficit Compensation Deficit Compensation
2020
$154,744

d. Special reserves

On the first-time adoption of IFRSs, the Company transferred to retained earnings unrealized revaluation increment and cumulative translation differences in the amounts of $10,968 thousand and $250,296 thousand, respectively. The increase in retained earnings that resulted from all IFRSs adjustments was smaller than the total revaluation and translation differences; therefore, the Company appropriated to the special reserve the amount of $230,859 thousand, the increase in retained earnings that resulted from all IFRSs adjustments on transitions to IFRSs.

c. Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company’s major financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, financial assets at amortized cost, investment in equity instruments, notes receivables, trade receivables, trade receivables from related parties, other receivables, other receivables from related parties, refundable deposits/guarantee deposits received, short-term borrowings, trade payables, trade payables to related parties, other payables, long-term borrowings, bonds payable and lease liabilities. The Company’s Corporate Treasury function provides services to the business, coordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Company through internal risk reports which analyze exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

1) Market risk

The Company’s operating activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see a) below) and interest rates (see b) below).

a) Foreign currency risk

The Company had foreign currency sales and purchases, which exposed the Company to foreign currency risk. After assessment, the positions of the Company’s foreign currency assets and liabilities were not exposed to significant exchange rate risks, and it did not adopt additional hedging measures. Therefore, no relevant hedging accounting treatment applied.

For the carrying amounts of the Company’s monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies at the balance sheet date, please refer to Note 30.

Sensitivity analysis

The Company was mainly affected by the fluctuations in the exchange rates of USD and CNY.

The following table details the Company’s sensitivity to a 1% increase and decrease in New Taiwan dollars (the functional currency) against the relevant foreign currencies. The sensitivity analysis is for a 1% change in foreign currency rates and included only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items

  • 52-

at the end of the reporting period. A positive number below indicates a decrease in pre-tax profit (loss) when New Taiwan dollars strengthen by 1% against the relevant currency. For a 1% weakening of New Taiwan dollars against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on pre-tax profit (loss) and the balances below would be negative.

  • b) Interest rate risk

The Company was exposed to fair value interest rate risk and cash flow interest rate risk from long-term, short term borrowings, bonds payable, and lease liabilities at both fixed and floating interest rates.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows:

454,121

2) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. At the balance sheet date, the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk, which might cause financial losses due to a counterparty’s failure to perform its obligations and the Company’s provision of financial guarantees, approximated the carrying amounts of the financial assets recognized in the balance sheet.

The Company adopted a policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties. Credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the risk management specialists annually.

  • 53-

Trade receivables consisted of a large number of customers, spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of customers in view of trade receivables and, where appropriate, credit guarantee insurance cover is purchased.

3) Liquidity risk

The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Company’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.

The Company relies on bank borrowings as a significant source of liquidity. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had available unutilized bank loan facilities set out in (b) below.

a) Liquidity and interest rate risk tables for non-derivative financial liabilities

The remaining contractual maturity analysis of non-derivative financial liabilities was based on the earliest date at which the Company might be required to repay and was compiled based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities (including principal and estimated interest). Therefore, the bank borrowings with a repayment on demand clause were included in the earliest time period, regardless of the probability of exercise of the right by banks. The maturity analysis of other non-derivative financial liabilities was compiled in accordance with the agreed repayment date.
