  • ICT revenue grew by 9%:
    • ✓ Increased demand in business applications
    • ICT high value-added product (ICT_HVA) increase revenue contribution as the result of Qisda's effort in self-development and acquisitions in recent years
  • NCG revenue contribution remained at the same level: Mainly due to shortage of materials, shipping containers as well as port congestion.
  • Starting from May 2021, Qisda no longer need to book investment gain/loss from AUO based on shareholding percentages as it is changed to Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) from equity method. Fluctuation in AUO's earnings will not affect Qisda's EPS.

Cash dividends from AUO will be booked as our non-operating income: dividend income.
