2025 Business Report
APPENDIX I
[Macroeconomic Environment and Business Plan]
In 2025, the global financial markets continued to be influenced by major factors such as adjustments in monetary policies of key countries, shifts in U.S. policy directions, heightened geopolitical risks, and supply chain restructuring, resulting in significantly increased market volatility. Taiwan's capital market was primarily driven by the cyclical momentum of the AI industry, foreign capital flows, and exchange rate fluctuations. The Taiwan Weighted Index exhibited a volatile trend, rising by 5,928.5 points over the year to close at 28,963.60 points, representing a 25.74% increase. This reflects that despite intertwined risks and opportunities, the market still possesses structural growth potential. The Company's management team adheres to the core philosophy of "stable operations, controllable risks, and long-term value creation." In response to the ever-changing macroeconomic and financial environment, the team continuously reviews and optimizes overall operational strategies. Each business unit dynamically adjusts operational priorities according to market changes to enhance resource allocation efficiency and operational performance. At the same time, the Company continues to strengthen its overall risk management framework, utilizing real-time monitoring, quantitative analysis, and scenario testing to flexibly adjust investment and portfolio positions. By balancing risk control with capital efficiency, the Company aims to steadily generate long-term value for its shareholders.
[Implementation and Results]
In the brokerage business, the average daily trading volume in 2025 was NT$532.509 billion, slightly up 1.48% from NT$524.721 billion in 2024. Brokerage remains a long-term, stable core profit source for the Company. Guided by customer needs and user experience, the Company continuously promotes service refinement and product diversification, steadily expanding its client base. At the same time, it actively introduces digital financial services and intelligent trading tools to enhance transaction efficiency and client engagement. Combined with social media management and data-driven marketing strategies, these initiatives strengthen brand visibility and precise customer targeting, driving stable growth in market share and brokerage commission revenue, thereby laying a foundation for the long-term development of the brokerage business.
The proprietary investment team focuses on fundamental research and industry trend analysis, integrating data-driven investment decisions with risk management mechanisms. The team targets companies with competitive advantages and medium- to long-term growth potential, employing diversified hedging strategies to effectively manage market volatility risks and maintain portfolio stability and consistent returns. In the financial products business, the Company leverages its proprietary investment expertise and market insights to continuously develop innovative financial products that differentiate in the market and meet investor demand, offering diversified asset allocation options and further enhancing overall product competitiveness and revenue structure.
In 2025, the Company acted as lead or co-manager in a total of 52 underwriting deals, with a total underwriting amount of NT$8.437 billion. The Company focuses on enterprises with growth potential, industry competitiveness, and strong governance, combining forward-looking industry research with rigorous credit risk control to provide comprehensive services for listing and multi-channel fundraising. Through its professional underwriting team, venture platform resources, and data-driven deal selection process, the Company effectively controls underwriting risks while expanding quality deal flow, continuously injecting stable momentum into the Company's operations.
[Profitability Analysis and Operating Income/Expenditure in Budget Execution]
In 2025, leveraging its experienced management team and rigorous risk control mechanisms, the Company achieved annual revenue of NT$12.515 billion and net income after tax of NT$4.804 billion, with earnings per share of NT$3.00. Return on assets (ROA) was 3.33% and return on equity (ROE) was 12.88%, marking another strong year of profitability. Looking ahead to 2026, the Company will continue to accurately steer its operational direction, flexibly adjust business strategies and capital allocation to respond to market fluctuations, ensure stable growth in profit structure, achieve annual budget and performance targets, and continually enhance corporate value and shareholder returns.
[Future Operations]
Facing the global monetary policy trends, interest rate and inflation changes, geopolitical and trade policy adjustments, as well as opportunities and impacts brought by technological innovation and industry transformation in 2026, the Company will continue to leverage its professional team to seize market opportunities, carefully evaluate investment returns, and strictly enforce risk management to ensure long-term stable profitability. At the same time, the Company will strengthen resource integration and cross-departmental collaboration to enhance organizational efficiency, actively promote digital finance and low-carbon transformation, implement ESG principles and corporate social responsibility, and continuously refine its corporate governance system to create sustainable development value.

The financial statements have been audited and certified by Fang-Yu, Wang and Puo-Ju Kuo of PricewaterhouseCoopers Certified Public Accountants, who issued an auditors' report.

According to Article 14-4 of the Securities and Exchange Act and Article 219 of the Company Law, we hereby submit this report.
President Securities Corporation
Convener of Audit Committee:

March 16, 2026
APPENDIX III
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
PWCR25003644
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of President Securities Corporation
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of President Securities Corporation (the "Company") as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended and notes to the parent company only 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 the Other matter section), the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the parent company only financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its parent company only financial performance and its parent company only cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms and Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Futures Commission Merchants.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statements 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 parent company only financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the 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 judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the Company’s 2025 parent company only financial statements. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matter for the Company’s 2025 parent company only financial statements is stated as follows:
Fair value measurement of unlisted stocks without active market
Description
Please refer to Note 4(7) for the accounting policies on unlisted stocks without active market (shown as “financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income”) and Note 5 for details of significant judgements, estimates and assumption uncertainty. As at December 31, 2025, the unlisted stocks without active market held by the Company totaled 476,383 thousand New Taiwan Dollars and were shown as “financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income” (Level 3 fair value).
Due to the lack of an active market, the fair value of the unlisted stocks held by the Company was determined using the valuation method. Management commissioned experts to assist in measuring their fair value based on comparable listed companies using the market approach. The main assumption of market approach is calculated based on the latest related parameters of comparable listed companies in similar industries and considering discounts on market liquidity or risk particularity.
Above-mentioned estimation of fair value involves various assumptions and material unobservable inputs, which has high uncertainty and relies on the subjective judgment. Any changes in judgements and estimates may affect the ultimate result of accounting estimates and have an impact on the financial statements of the Company. Thus, we have included the fair value measurement of unlisted stocks without active market as a key audit matter in our audit.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:
- Obtained an understanding and assessed policy documents, internal control system, fair value measurement models and approval processes that are related to fair value measurement of unlisted stocks;
- Ascertained whether the measurement methods used are commonly adopted in the industry;
- Assessed the reasonableness of parameters used by similar companies;
- Examined inputs and calculation formulas used in valuation methods and agreed such data to supporting documents.
Other matter – Reference to the audits of other auditors
We did not audit the financial statements of certain investments accounted for under the equity method which were audited by other auditors. Therefore, our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in respect of these associates, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. As at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the balance of these investments accounted for under the equity method amounted to 2,638,949 thousand and 2,641,462 thousand New Taiwan Dollars, constituting 1.25% and 1.68% of the parent company only total assets, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the comprehensive income (loss) recognized from associates and joint ventures accounted for under the equity method amounted to (12,642) thousand and (65,206) thousand New Taiwan Dollars, constituting (0.23%) and (1.26%) the parent company only total comprehensive income (loss), respectively.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the parent company only financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms, Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Futures Commission Merchants, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statement that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the 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
management either intends to liquidate the 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 the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the parent company only financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only 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 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 parent company only financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgement and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the 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 parent
company only 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.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only 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 the Company to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the parent company only audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
(Blank below)
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 parent company only financial statements of the current period 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
PWCR25003646
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of PRESIDENT SECURITIES CORPORATION
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of President Securities Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Group") as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of 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 the Other matter section), the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, 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 Firms, and Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Futures Commission Merchants, and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations that came into effect as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.
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 the Group 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 judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the Group’s 2025 consolidated financial statements. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matter for the Group’s 2025 consolidated financial statements is stated as follows:
Fair value measurement of unlisted stocks without active market
Description
Please refer to Note 4(8) for the accounting policies on unlisted equity investments without active market (classified as “financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income”) and Note 5 for details of critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumption uncertainty. As at December 31, 2025, the unlisted stocks without active market held by the Group totaled 1,704,002 thousand New Taiwan Dollars and were shown as “financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income” (Level 3 fair value).
Due to the lack of active market for these unlisted stocks held by the Group was determined using the valuation method. Management commissioned experts to assist in measuring their fair value based on comparable listed companies using the market approach. The main assumptions of the market approach are calculated based on the latest related parameters of comparable listed companies in similar industries and considering discounts on market liquidity or assessment of risk.
Above-mentioned estimation of fair value involves various assumptions and material unobservable inputs, which has high uncertainty and subjective judgement. Any changes in judgements and estimates may affect the ultimate result of accounting estimates and have an impact on the financial statements of the Group. Thus, we have included the fair value measurement of unlisted stocks without active market as a key audit matter in our audit.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:
- Obtained an understanding and assessed policy documents, internal control system, fair
value measurement models and approval processes that are related to fair value measurement of unlisted stocks;
- Ascertained whether the measurement methods used are commonly adopted in the industry;
- Assessed the reasonableness of parameters used by similar companies;
- Examined inputs and calculation formulas used in valuation models and agreed such data to supporting documents.
Other matter – Reference to the audits of other auditors
We did not audit the financial statements of certain investments accounted for under the equity method which were audited by other auditors. Therefore, our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in respect of these associates, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. As at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the balance of these investments accounted for under the equity method amounted to 2,638,949 thousand and 2,641,462 thousand New Taiwan Dollars, constituting 1.06% and 1.37% of consolidated total assets, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the consolidated comprehensive income (loss) recognized from associates and joint ventures accounted for under the equity method amounted to (12,642) thousand and (65,206) thousand New Taiwan Dollars, constituting (0.22%) and (1.26%) of consolidated total comprehensive income (loss), respectively.
Other matter – Parent company only financial reports
We have audited and expressed an unmodified opinion on the parent company only financial statements of President Securities Corporation, as at and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the consolidated financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms, Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Futures Commission Merchants, and the International Financial Reporting
Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations that came into effect as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statement 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 the Group 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 the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditors’ 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 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 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 the Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’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 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 auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the 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 the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence,
and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period 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.
