Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD.:
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors (please refer to Other Matter paragraph), the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“ IFRSs” ), International Accounting Standards (“ IASs” ), interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries 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 requirement. Based on our audits and the report of another auditor, we believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.
Other Matter
We did not audit the financial statements of certain subsidiaries. Those financial statements were audited by another auditor. Therefore, our opinion, insofar as it relates to those subsidiaries, is based solely on the report of another auditor. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the assets of these subsidiaries constitute 31% and 35% of the consolidated total assets, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the operating revenue of these subsidiaries constitute 37% and 40%, respectively, of the consolidated operating revenue.
KPMG, a Taiwan partnership and a member firm of the KPMG global organization of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Limited, a private English company limited by guarantee.
4-1
The Company has prepared its parent company only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, on which we have issued an unmodified opinion with other matter paragraph.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgments, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In our professional judgments, key audit matters to be communicated in the independent auditors’ report are listed below:
1. Evaluation of inventories
Please refer to note 4(h) “Inventories”, note 5 “Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty”, and note 6(g) “Inventories” of the consolidated financial statements.
Description of key audit matter:
Inventories of PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Due to the fast high-tech revolution, as well as the advancement of production technologies that may lead dramatic change in customers’ demand, the net realizable value of inventories requires subjective judgments of the management, which is the major source of estimation uncertainty. Therefore, evaluation of inventories is one of the key audit matters for our audit.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
Our principal audit procedures included: understanding the policies of evaluating the inventories of PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries; inspecting whether existing inventory policies are applied; examining the accuracy of the aging of inventories by sampling and analyzing the changes of the aging of inventories; inspecting the reasonableness of the allowance provided for inventory valuation in the past and comparing it to the current year to ensure that the measurements and assumptions are appropriate.
In addition, the consolidated financial statements of certain subsidiaries were audited by other auditor, therefore, we have issued audit instruction to their auditors as guidelines to communicate the above key audit matters with them and reviewed other auditor’s working papers, as well as obtained the feedbacks required in the audit instruction.
- Impairment assessment of intangible assets
Please refer to note 4(n) “Impairment of non-financial assets”, note 5 “Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty” , and note 6(m) “ Intangible assets” of the consolidated financial statements.
Description of key audit matter:
In 2014, PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. acquired Tymphany Worldwide Enterprises Ltd. through its subsidiary, Diamond (Cayman) Holdings Ltd. The transaction metioned above resulted in PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries to recognize its goodwill, technologies, and customer relations, as intangible assets. The rapid industrial transformation and the assessment of impairment contained estimation uncertainty. Therefore, the assessment of impairment of intangible assets is one of the key audit matters for our audit.
4-2
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
The principal audit procedures on the assessment of impairment of intangible assets included: evaluating the identification of cash generating units and any indication of impairment relating to intangible assets made by the management; acquiring impairment assessment report from external expert engaged by the Group; reviewing the impairment assessment report and assessing the reasonability of measurements, parameters, and assumptions; evaluating the operation outcomes and comparing them to the past forecasts; making sensitivity analysis for evaluation of impairment losses and evaluating the completeness of disclosure in 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 Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs, IASs, interpretations as well as related guidance endorsed by the 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 Group’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 management either intends to liquidate PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries 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 PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries’s financial reporting process.
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 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 PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries’ internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
4-3
-
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 PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries’ ability to continue as a going concern. 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 PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. and its subsidiaries 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 the consolidated financial statements of the current period 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.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Horng, Shyh-Gang and Fu, Hung-Wen.

PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
-
3) The defined benefit liabilities are measured at fair value of plan assets, less the present value of the defined benefit obligation.
-
(ii) Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each Group entity is determined based on the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in New Taiwan dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial information presented in New Taiwan dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand.
-
(c) Basis of consolidation
-
(i) Principles of preparation of the consolidated financial statements
The consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and subsidiaries. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its control over the entity.
The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Losses applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance.
Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adjusted to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Any differences between the Group’s share of net assets before and after the change and any consideration received or paid are adjusted to equity attributable to stockholders of the Company.
When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary, and any related non-controlling interests at their carring amounts at the date when control is lost. Any interest retained in the former subsidiary is measured at fair value when control is lost, with the resulting gain or loss being recognized in profit or loss. The Group recognizes as gain or loss in profit or loss the difference between (i) the fair value of the consideration received as well as any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value at the date when control is lost ;and (ii) the assets (including any goodwill), liabilities of the subsidiary as well as any related non-controlling interests at their carrying amounts at the date when control is lost. When the Group loses control of its subsidiary, it accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary on the same basis as would be required if it had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(d) Foreign currencies
(i) Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Group entities at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into functional currencies using the exchange rate at that date. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are translated into functional currencies using the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Nonmonetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured based on historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Exchange differences are generally recognized in profit or loss, except for the differences relating to an investment in equity securities designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income, which are recognized in other comprehensive income.
(ii) Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated into the presentation currency of the consolidated financial statements, New Taiwan Dollar, at the exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated into the presentation currency of the consolidated financial statements, New Taiwan Dollar, at the average rate. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.
When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence, or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes of any part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interest. When the Group disposes of only part of its investment in an associate or joint venture including a foreign operation while retaining significant influence or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.
When the settlement of a monetary receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange gains and losses arising from such a monetary item are considered to form part of the net investment in the foreign operation and are recognized in other comprehensive income.
(e) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
An asset is classified as current under one of the following criteria, and all other assets are classified as non-current.
-
(i) It is expected to be realized, or intended to be sold or consumed, in the normal operating cycle;
-
(ii) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
(Continued)
15
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
-
(iii) It is expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or
-
(iv) The asset is cash or a cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
A liability is classified as current under one of the following criteria, and all other liabilities are classified as non-current.
-
(i) It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;
-
(ii) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
(iii) It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
-
(iv) It does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by issuing equity instruments do not affect its classification.
-
(f) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise petty cash, cash on hand and demand deposits. Cash and cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Time deposits with maturities within three months or less which meet the above definition and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes should be recognized as cash equivalents.
- (g) Financial instruments
Accounts receivables are initially recognized when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset (unless it is an trade receivable without a significant financing component) or financial liability is initially measured at fair value, plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A accounts receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the transaction price.
- (i) Financial assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets classified as the same categories are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.
On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at amortized cost; Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) ; or fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its business model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in the business model.
(Continued)
16
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
- 1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
-
●it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
●its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost, which is the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial recognition, plus/minus, the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method, adjusted for any loss allowance. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses, as well as impairment, are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss.
- 2) Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Group may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investment’s fair value in other comprehensive income. This election is made on an instrument-by-instrument basis.
Equity investments at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognized as income unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss.
Dividend income is recognized in profit or loss on the date on which the Group’s right to receive payment is established.
- 3) Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
All financial assets not classified as amortized cost or FVOCI described as above are measured at FVTPL, including derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate a financial asset, which meets the requirements to be measured at amortized cost or at FVOCI, as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.
These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss.
- 4) Assemessment whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest
For the purposes of this assessment, principal is defined as the fair value of the financial assets on initial recognition. Interest is defined as consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs, as well as a profit margin.
(Continued)
17
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest, the Group considers the contractual terms of the instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition. In making this assessment, the Group considers:
-
●contingent events that would change the amount or timing of cash flows;
-
●terms that may adjust the contractual coupon rate, including variable rate features;
-
●prepayment and extension features; and
-
●terms that limit the Group’ s claim to cash flows from specified assets (e.g. nonrecourse features).
-
5)
-
Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses (ECL) on financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, refundable deposit paid and other financial assets, etc.).
The Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECL, except for the following which are measured as 12-month ECL:
- ●Bank balances for which credit risk (i.e. the risk of default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument) has not increased significantly since initial recognition.
Loss allowance for accounts receivables are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL.
Lifetime ECL are the ECL that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.
12-month ECL are the portion of ECL that result from default events that are possible within the 12 month after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months).
The maximum period considered when estimating ECL is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk.
When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment as well as forward-looking information.
The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 61 days past due.
The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when the financial asset is more
(Continued)
18
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
than 361 days past due or the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full.
ECL are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e the difference between the cash flows due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive). ECL are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost are credit-impaired. A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial assets is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:
-
●significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;
-
●a breach of contract such as a default or being more than 361 days past due;
-
●the lender of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, having granted to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider;
-
●it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization; or
-
●the disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties.
Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets.
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when the Group has no reasonable expectations of recovering the financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. The Group individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Group expects no significant recovery from the amount written off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.
- 6) Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expired, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.
The Group enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognized in its statement of balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets. In these cases, the transferred assets are not derecognized.

(ii) Financial liabilities and equity instruments
- 1) Classification of debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified as financial liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
2) Equity instrument
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences the residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued are recognized as the amount of consideration received, less the direct cost of issuing.
3) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognized in profit or loss.
Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognized in profit or loss.
4) Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Group derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expired. The Group also derecognizes a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognized at fair value.
On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss.
- 5) Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of balance sheet when, and only when, the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to offset the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
- (iii) Derivative financial instruments
The Group holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate exposures. Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally recognized in profit or loss.

(h) Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted-average-costing method, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs, and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
(i) Investment in associates
Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over their financial and operating policies.
Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are recognized initially at cost. The cost of the investment includes transaction costs. The carrying amount of the investment in associates includes goodwill arising from the acquisition less any accumulated impairment losses.
The consolidated financial statements include the Group’ s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of associates, after adjustments to align their accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases. When an associate’s equity changes due to reasons other than profit and loss or comprehensive income, which did not result in changes of the Group’s shareholding percentage in the associate, the Group recognizes equity changes attributable to the Group by its shareholding percentage as capital surplus.
Unrealized Gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and an associate are recognized only to the extent of unrelated party’s interests in the associate.
When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interests in an associate, the carrying amount of the investment, including any long term interests that form part thereof, is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent the Group has an obligation or has made payments on behalf of its associates.
The Group shall discontinue the use of the equity method from the date when its investment ceases to be an associate. The Group shall measure the retained interest at fair value. The difference between the fair value of retained interest and proceeds from disposal, and the carrying amount of the investment at the date the equity method was discontinued, is recognized in profit or loss. The Group shall account for all the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that investment on the same basis as would have been required if its associates had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. If a gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities, the entity shall reclassify the gain or loss from equity to profit or loss (as a reclassification adjustment) when the equity method is discontinued.

(j) Investment property
Investment property is the property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes. Investment property is measured at cost on initial recognition, and subsequently at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation expense is calculated based on the depreciation method, useful life, and residual value, which are the same as those adopted for property, plant and equipment.
Any gain or loss on disposal of an investment property (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount) is recognized in profit or loss.
Rental income from investment property is recognized as other income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognized as an integral part of the total rental income, over the term of the lease.
-
(k) Property, plant and equipment
-
(i) Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, which includes capitalized borrowing costs, less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is ecognized in profit or loss.
(ii) Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group.
- (iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated on the cost of an asset, less its residual value, and is recognized in profit or loss on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of each component of an item of property, plant and equipment.
Land has an unlimited useful life, and therefore is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years of significant items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
-
1) Buildings, leasehold improvement, and additional equipment: 1 ~ 51 years
-
2) Machinery and equipment: 1 ~10 years
-
3) Office and other equipment: 1 ~5 years
(Continued)
22
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Depreciation methods, useful lives, and residual values are reviewed at each annual reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.
- (iv) Reclassification to investment property
A property is reclassified to investment property at its carrying amount when the use of the property changes from owner occupied to investment property.
(l) Lease
At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
- (i) As a lessee
The Group recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be reliably determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:
-
1) fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;
-
2) variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;
-
3) amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and
-
4) payments for purchase or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised or penalty should be paid.
(Continued)
23
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when:
-
1) there is a change in future lease payments arising from the change in an index or rate; or
-
2) there is a change in the Group’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; or
-
3) there is a change of its assessment on purchase option; or
-
4) there is a change of its assessment on whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option; or
-
5) there is any lease modifications
When the lease liability is remeasured, other than lease modifications, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or in profit and loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
When the lease liability is remeasured to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease for lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease, the Group accounts for the remeasurement of the lease liability by decreasing the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease, and recognize in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease.
The Group presents right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property and lease liabilities as a separate line item respectively in the statement of financial position.
The Group has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases of machinery and other equipment that have a short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
(i) As a lessor
When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease commencement whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease. To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers to the lessee substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, then the lease is a finance lease; if not, then the lease is an operating lease. As part of this assessment, the Group considers certain indicators such as whether the lease is for the major part of the economic life of the asset.
When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease. If a head lease is a short-term lease to which the Group applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease.
If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, the Group applies IFRS15 to allocate the consideration in the contract.
(Continued)

PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The Group recognizes lease payments received under operating leases as income on a straightline basis over the lease term.
-
(m) Intangible assets
-
(i) Recognition and measurement
Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiaries is measured at cost, less accumulated impairment losses.
Expenditure on research activities is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
Development expenditure is capitalized only if the expenditure can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable and the Group intends to, and has sufficient resources to, complete the development and to use or sell the asset. Otherwise, it is recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, development expenditure is measured at cost, less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.
Other intangible assets, including customer relationships, technology, patents and trademarks, that are acquired by the Group and have finite useful lives, are measured at cost, less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.
(ii) Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
- (iii) Amortization
Amortization is calculated over the cost of the asset, less its residual value, and is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use.
The estimated useful lives for current and comparative periods are as follows:
| 1) | Customer relationships | 10 years |
|---|---|---|
| 2) | Technology | 10 years |
| 3) | Trademarks | 10 years |
| 4) | Patents | 2.5~10 years |
| 5) | Copyrights | 15 years |
Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values, are reviewed at each annual reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.
(Continued)
25
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(n) Impairment of non-financial assets
At each annual reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other than inventories and deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment.
For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs. Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value-in-use and its fair value, less costs to sell. Value-in-use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU.
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount.
Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. They are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.
(o) Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The Group recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or a service to a customer. The accounting policies for the Group’s main types of revenue are explained below:
(i) Sale of goods
The Group manufactures computer peripherals and non-computer peripherals and sales them to customers. The Group recognizes revenue when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has full discretion over the channel and price to sell the products, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer’ s acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Group has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
(Continued)
26
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The Group often offers discounts to its customers based on aggregate sales of components. Revenue from these sales is recognized based on the price specified in the contract, net of the estimated volume discounts. Accumulated experience is used to estimate the discounts, using the expected value method, and revenue is only recognized to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. A refund liabilities is recognized for expected volume discounts payable to customers in relation to sales made until the end of the reporting period. No element of financing is deemed present as the sales of components are made with a credit term of 45 days to 120 days, which is consistent with the market practice.
A receivable is recognized when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the Group has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional.
(ii) Rendering of services
The Group provides services, such as model research, development, and design to customers. Revenue from providing services is recognized in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided.
Estimates of revenues, costs or extent of progress toward completion are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management.
(iii) Financing components
The Group does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Group does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.
(p) Deferred grant revenue
Deferred grant revenue with additional conditions shall be recognized if the Group fulfills the conditions and the grant revenue becomes receivable.
Deferred grant revenue shall be recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the periods in which the expenses it is to compensate are recognized. Grant revenue with conditions to compensate for the acquisition cost of an asset shall be deferred and recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset.
If the deferred grant revenue is to compensate for the Group’s expenses that have been incurred or to supply immediate financial support to the Group and there is no related cost in the future, it shall be recognized in profit or loss when the grant revenue becomes receivable.
(q) Employee benefits
(i) Defined contribution plans
Obligations for contributions to the defined contribution plans are expensed as related services are provided.
(Continued)
27
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(ii) Defined benefit plans
The Group’s net obligation in respect of the defined benefit plans is calculated separately for each the plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair value of any plan assets.
The calculation of defined benefit obligations is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a potential asset for the Group, the recognized asset is limited to the present value of economic benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. To calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any applicable minimum funding requirements.
Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability (asset), which comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income, and accumulated in retained earnings within equity. The Group determines the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liability (asset) for the period by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation at the beginning of the annual period to the then-net defined benefit liability (asset). Net interest expense and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in profit or loss.
(iii) Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are expensed as related service are provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
(r) Share-based payment
The grant-date fair value of equity-settled share-based payment arrangements granted to employees is generally recognized as an expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the vesting period of the awards. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognized is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date.
For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant-date fair value of the sharebased payment is measured to reflect such conditions, and there is no true-up for differences between the expected and the actual outcomes.
Grant date of a share-based payment award is the date which the board of directors authorized the price and number of shares that employees can subscribe for.
(Continued)
28
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(s) Income taxes
Income taxes expenses include both current taxes and deferred taxes. Except for expenses related to business combinations or recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive income, all current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss.
The Group has determined that the global minimum top-up tax – which it is required to pay under Pillar Two legislation – is an income tax in the scope of IAS 12. The Group has applied a temporary mandatory relief from deferred tax accounting for the impacts of the top-up tax and accounts for it as a current tax when it is incurred.
Current taxes comprise the expected tax payables or receivables on the taxable profits (losses) for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax payables or receivables are the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reflects uncertainty related to income taxes, if any. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities at the reporting date and their respective tax bases. Deferred taxes are recognized except for the following:
-
(i) temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profits (losses) and does not give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences;
-
(ii) temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and
-
(iii) taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.
Deferred taxes are measured at tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reserve, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if the following criteria are met:
-
(i) the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
-
(ii) the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either:
-
1) the same taxable entity; or
-
2) different taxable entities which intend to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis, or to realize the assets and liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
(Continued)
29
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Deferred tax assets are recognized for the carry forward of unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefits will be realized; such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves.
(t) Earnings per share
The Group discloses the basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to ordinary stockholders of the Company. Basic earnings per share is calculated as the profit attributable to the ordinary stockholders of the Company divided by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated as the profit attributable to ordinary stockholders of the Company divided by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding after adjustment for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. Dilutive potential ordinary shares comprise employee remuneration and restricted stock.
(u) Operating segments
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the Group). Operating results of the operating segment are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance. Each operating segment consists of standalone financial information.
(5) Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty:
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management has made judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The management continues to monitor the accounting, estimates and assumptions. The management recognizes any changes in accounting estimates during the period and the impact of those changes in accounting estimates in the following period.
Information about critical judgments made in applying the accounting policies that have significant effects on amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements is as follows:
(a) Judgment of whether the Group has substantive control over its investees
The Group holds 37% of the outstanding voting shares of ALT International Co., Ltd. (AIC), but the Group did not obtain any director seats of AIC, and the chairman of AIC controls 45% of voting shares. Therefore, the Group does not have power of control over relevant activities of AIC, but remains significant influence.
(Continued)
30
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year is as follows. Those assumptions and estimaiton have been updated to reflect the impact of economic uncertainty.
(a) Valuation of inventories
As inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, the Group estimates the amount due to inventories’ obsolescence and unmarketable items at the reporting date and then writes down the cost of inventories to net realizable value. The net realizable value of the inventory is mainly determined based on assumptions as to future demand within a specific time horizon. Due to the rapid industrial transformation, there may be significant changes in the net realizable value of inventories. Please refer to note 6(g) for valuation of inventories.
(b) Assessment of impairment of intangible assets (including goodwill)
The assessment of impairment of intangible assets required the Group to make subjective judgments on cash-generating units, allocate the intangible assets to relevant cash-generating units, and estimate the recoverable amount of relevant cash-generating units. Changes in economic conditions or changes in assessment caused by business strategies could result in significant impairment charges or reversal in future years.
The Group’s accounting policies include measuring financial and non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss. The Group has established an internal control framework with respect to the measurement of fair value and regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third-party information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair value, then the Group assessed the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that such valuations meet the requirements of IFRSs, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which such valuations should be classified.
The Group strives to use market observable inputs when measuring assets and liabilities. Different levels of the fair value hierarchy to be used in determining the fair value of financial instruments are as follows:
Level 1:quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identifiable assets or liabilities.
Level 2:inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (ie as prices) or indirectly (ie derived from prices).
Level 3:inputs for the assets or liability that are not based on observable market data.
For any transfer within the fair value hierarchy, the impact of the transfer is recognized on the reporting date. Please refer to note 6(aa) for assumptions used in measuring fair value.

(i) The Group evaluated the recoverable amounts of its goodwill arising from the acquisition of TWEL, which is based on its value-in-use, for impairment testing at each annual reporting date. Value-in-use is based on five years of the estimated future cash flow of the Group, and discounted to their present value using the yearly discount rate, which reflects the risks specific to CGU, by 13.08% and 16.78% for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. There were no impairment losses of goodwill in 2023 and 2022.

(ii) The Group evaluated the recoverable amounts of its goodwill arising from the acquisition of TYM Acoustic Europe, which is based on its value-in-use, for impairment testing at each annual reporting date. Value-in-use is based on five years of the estimated future cash flow of the Group, and discounted to their present value using the yearly discount rate, which reflects the risks specific to CGU, by 15.80% for the year ended December 31, 2022. Since TYM Acoustic Europe’s operating performance and profit growth did not turn out as expected, the recoverable amount was assessed to be less than the book value, the Group recognized impairment loss of goodwill of $29,198 under other gains and losses for the year ended December 31, 2022.

2022 23,056 (6,971) 16,085 |
|---|---|---|
- 6) Actuarial assumptions
The principal actuarial assumptions at the reporting date were as follows:
| Discount rate Future salary increase rate |
December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 % 1.300 % 1.400 % 2.750 % 2.750 |
|---|---|
The expected allocation payment to be made by the Group to the defined benefit plans for the one-year period after the reporting date was $2,742.
The weighted-average duration of the defined benefit plans is 8 years.
- 7) Sensitivity analysis
When computing the present value of the defined benefit obligations, the Group uses judgments and estimations to determine the actuarial assumptions, including discount rates and future salary changes, as of the financial statement date. Any changes in the actuarial assumptions may significantly impact the amount of the defined benefit obligations.
If the actuarial assumptions had changed, the impact on the present value of the defined benefit obligation shall be as follows:
(Continued)
49
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
| December 31, 2023 Discount rate Future salary increase rate December 31, 2022 Discount rate Future salary increase rate |
Influences of defined benefit obligations |
|---|---|
| Increased 0.25% Decreased 0.25% $ (2,033) 2,089 $ 2,007 (1,963) $ (2,198) 2,261 $ 2,169 (2,119) |
Reasonably possible changes at the reporting date to one of the relevant actuarial assumptions, holding other assumptions constant, would have affected the defined benefit obligation by the amounts shown above. Many assumption changes may affect each other in practice. The method used in the sensitivity analysis is consistent with the calculation of pension liabilities in the balance sheets.
There were no changes in the method and assumptions used in the preparation of the sensitivity analysis for 2023 and 2022.
(ii) Defined contribution plans
The continuing operations allocate 6% of each employee’s monthly wages to the labor pension personal account at the Bureau of Labor Insurance in accordance with the provisions of the Labor Pension Act.

(v) The Company’s income tax returns have been examined by the tax authority through the years to 2020.
(vi) Global minimum top-up tax
The Group operates in United Kingdom, Japan and The Czech Republic , which have enacted new legislation to implement the global minimum top-up tax. The Group expects to be subject to the top-up tax in relation to its operations in the Cayman Islands, where the statutory tax rate is 0%. However, since the newly enacted tax legislation in United Kingdom, Japan and The Czech Republic is only effective from January 1, 2024, there is no current tax impact for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The Group has applied a temporary mandatory relief from deferred tax accounting for the impacts of the top-up tax and accounts for it as a current tax when it is incurred. Please refer to note 4(s) for explanation of accounting policies.

(iii) Retained earnings
According to the articles of the Company, when allocating the earnings for each year, the Company shall first offset its losses in previous year and set aside a legal capital reserve at 10% of the earing left over, until the accumulated legal capital reserve has equaled the total capital of the Company; then set aside a special capital reserve in accordance with relevant laws, the balance of the earnings shall combined into an aggregate amount of undistributed earnings, which shall become the aggregate distributable earnings to be distributed according to the distribution plan proposed by the board of directors and submitted to the stockholders’ meeting for resolution.
The Company is at the growth stage and considers its future cash demand, long-term financial plans, benefits to stockholders, and balanced dividends. Earnings distribution is made by stock dividend and cash dividend. The cash dividend shall not be less than 10 percent of the total dividends and could be adjusted depending on the Company’s operating condition.
1) Legal reserve
If the Company experiences profit for the year, the distribution of the statutory earnings reserve, either by new shares or by cash, shall be decided at the stockholders’ meeting, and the distribution amount is limited to the portion of legal reserve which exceeds 25 percent of the paid-in capital.

In accordance with the FSC, the increase in retained earnings due to the first-time adoption of IFRSs shall be reclassified as special reserve, and when the relevant asset is used, disposed of, or reclassified, this special reserve, shall be reversed as distributable earnings proportionately. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the carrying amount of special reserve both amounted to $97,300.

PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
In accordance with the FSC, a portion of earnings shall be allocated as special earnings reserve during earnings distribution. If the Company has already reclassified a portion of earnings to special reserve under the preceding subparagraph, it shall make supplemental allocation of special reserve for any difference between the amount it has already allocated and the amount of the current-period total net reduction of other shareholders’ equity. An equivalent amount of special reserve shall be allocated from the after-tax net profit in the period, plus items other than after-tax net profit in the period, that are included in the undistributed current-period earnings and the undistributed prior-period earnings. Similarly, a portion of undistributed prior-period earnings shall be reclassified as special earnings reserve (which does not qualify for earnings distribution) to account for cumulative changes to other stockholders’ equity pertaining to prior periods. Amounts of subsequent reversals pertaining to the net reduction of other stockholders’ equity shall qualify for additional distributions.

2) Sensitivity analysis
The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, loans and borrowings, notes and accounts payable, and other payables that are denominated in foreign currency. A weakening (strengthening) of 5% of the TWD, CNY, HKD, CZK and THB against the USD; the HKD against CZK; as well as HKD and CZK against the EUR, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, would have increased or decreased the net profit before tax by $440,664 and $243,619, respectively. The analysis is performed on the same basis for both periods.
Since the Group has many kinds of functional currency, the information on foreign exchange gain (loss) on monetary items is disclosed by total amount. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, foreign exchange gain (including realized and unrealized portions) amounted to $874,567 and $1,255,089, respectively.

PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(iv) Interest rate analysis
Please refer to the note on liquidity risk management and interest rate exposure of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities.
The following sensitivity analysis is based on the exposure to the interest rate risk of nonderivative financial instruments on the reporting date. Regarding assets and liabilities with variable interest rates, the analysis is based on the assumption that the amounts of liabilities outstanding at the reporting date was outstanding throughout the year. The rate of change is expressed as the interest rate increases or decreases by 0.25% when reporting to management internally, which also represents the Group management’ s assessment of the reasonably possible interest rate change.
If the interest rate had increased or decreased by 0.25%, and assumed all other variables remain constant, the profit before tax would have increased or decreased by $15,122 and $10,434 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This is mainly due to borrowings and demand deposits with variable interest rates.
(v) Other price risk
If the market price of the equity securities had changed on the reporting date, the influence on other comprehensive income is as follows (The analysis is performed on the same basis for both periods, and assumes all other variable remain constant):
| Price of securities at the reporting date Increasing 10% Decreasing 10% |
2023 | 2023 |
|---|---|---|
| Other comprehensive income before tax |

2) Fair value valuation techniques for financial instruments measured at fair value
If a financial instrument has a quoted price in an active market, the quoted price is used as fair value. The quoted price of a financial instrument obtained from major exchanges and over-the counter markets are the basis used to determine the fair value of a listed company’s stock and the quoted prices in an active market.
A financial instrument is regarded as being quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service or regulatory agency and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s-length basis. If these conditions can not be reached, then the market is non-active. In general, a market with low trading volume or high bid-ask spreads is an indication of a non-active market.
(Continued)
66
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The Group uses the following methods in determining the fair value of its financial instruments without a quoted price in an active market:
-
a) The fair value of derivative instruments is based on quoted prices. When quoted prices are unavailable, the fair value is estimated on the basis of the contract’s spot exchange rate and swap point.
-
-
-
b) Financial assets at FVTPL non-derivative financial assets and Financial assets at FVOCI without an active market are investments in domestic or foreign non-listed stock. The estimated fair value is based on the market approach of comparable business and adjusted for the lack of liquidity. When prices are unavailable, the fair value is estimated on the basis of unadjusted prior trade prices.
-
3) In 2023 and 2022, there were no transfers between Levels.

4) Reconciliation of Level 3 fair values

PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
- note 1: The fair value is based on the market value, and it has considered the recent financing activities, comparable business, market and other economic conditions etc., to determine the assumptions. Also, the significant unobservable inputs are marketability discount, but any changes of marketability discount would not result in significant potential financial impact, therefore there is no need to show the quantified information on it.
note 2: The fair value is based on the quotation of a third party, therefore there is no need to show the sensitivity analysis of unobservable inputs.

(ab) Financial risk management
-
(i) Briefings
The Group is exposed to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
-
1) Credit risk
-
2) Liquidity risk
-
3) Market risk
This note presents information on exposure to each of the above risks and on the objectives, policies, and processes for measuring and managing risk. For detailed information, please refer to the related notes on each risk.
(ii) Structure of risk management
The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.
The Company’s board of directors oversees the management’s monitoring of the Group’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The board of directors is assisted in its oversight role by an internal auditor. The internal auditor undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the board of directors.
- (iii) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Group’s cash and cash equivalents; notes and accounts receivables (including related parties), and other receivables; and derivative instruments.
(Continued)
68
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
1) Cash and cash equivalents
The Group had deposited $9,625,255 (including restricted deposits) in O-Bank and 18 other financial institutions, and $6,120,011 (including restricted deposits) in HSBC Bank and 16 other financial institutions, representing 21% and 13% of total assets, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Group believes that there is no significant credit risk from the above-mentioned financial institutions.
2) Notes and accounts receivable
Sales to individual customers constituting over 10% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, totaled 24% and 25%, respectively; also 20% and 34%, respectively, of the ending balance of notes and accounts receivable (including related parties) were accounted for by those customers. In order to reduce credit risk, the Group assesses the financial status of each customer and the possibility of collection of receivables on a regular basis. The above-mentioned customers are profitable and have a good credit record; hence, the Group did not suffer any significant credit loss from those customers during the financial reporting period.
3) Derivative instruments
The Group entered into derivative instrument contracts with reputable and creditworthy financial institutions. The Group believes that the risk that these financial institutions may default on these contracts is relatively low and anticipates no significant credit loss.
(iv) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’ s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it always has sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.
The Group manages sufficient cash and cash equivalents so as to cope with its operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The Group had unused credit line of $29,144,191 and $29,823,745 as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(v) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and equity prices, will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.
1) Currency risk
The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases, and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of the Group’s entities, primarily the TWD, USD, HKD, CNY, CZK and THB. These transactions are denominated in USD.
(Continued)
69
PRIMAX ELECTRONICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The Group uses forward exchange contracts and foreign exchange swap contracts to hedge its currency risk. The Group makes performance reports and reviews operating strategy regularly, and believes that there is no significant risk because the gains or losses from exchange rate fluctuation will mostly be offset by the hedged item.
- 2) Interest rate risk
The Group’s main assets and liabilities with a floating-interest-rate basis are deposits and borrowings. The Group believes that cash flow risk arising from interest rate fluctuation is insignificant.
- (ac) Capital management
The board’ s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor, and market confidence, and to sustain future development of the business. Capital consists of ordinary shares, capital surplus, retained earnings, other equity, and non-controlling interests.
The Group sets its objectives for managing capital to safeguard the capacity to continue to operate, to continue to provide a return to stockholders, to safeguard the interest of related parties, and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
The Group’s debt ratios as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, were 59% and 61%, respectively.
- (ad) Changes of liabilities from financing activities
Reconciliation of liabilities arising from financing activities was as follows:
