(I) 2022 Business Report
Due to overly optimistic market expectations in 2021, quarterly adjustments were made in 2022 to accommodate changing market demand. Meanwhile, as geopolitical conflicts, inflation, interest rate hikes, and repeated lockdowns due to the pandemic, caused a rapid contraction of the global consumer market, leading to a significant adjustment of inventory levels in supply chain. The tech industry, which had previously thrived during the pandemic, shifted from a shortage of materials to an issue of how to manage excess inventory. Companies are now faced with the challenge of navigating the economic winter and waiting for recovery. In the first half of 2022, Raydium recorded its best semiannual results to date from the sales of AMOLED driver ICs. In the second half of the year, despite challenges in the economy, our diverse product lines and solid business fundamentals enabled us to push through the difficult period. Consolidated revenue for 2022 reached NT$22.822 billion, a 8.1% decrease from the previous year; overall gross margin decreased to 40.5% due to lower demand and higher costs; consolidated net income for the year was NT$3.862 billion, a decrease of 10% from the previous year.
Looking back on Raydium's milestones in 2022, we not only listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange at the beginning of the year, starting our journey to the capital market, but also generated increasing revenue from the sales of AMOLED driver ICs as well as automotive and industrial control driver ICs which have become important product lines for further development. The sales of AMOLED, automotive, and industrial control products accounted for over 60% of our revenue. While large-size LCD display driver ICs belong to a mature market, we still proactively develop new customers to mitigate risks. Large-size LCD display driver ICs, AMOLED driver ICs, automotive and industrial control driver ICs have become the three main pillars for Raydium's revenue growth.
With the corporate spirit of value focus and innovation, Raydium has been putting continuous efforts in diversifying our product portfolio. In terms of product development, for large-size display products, we have launched a design with ultra-narrow bezel and low power consumption for use in laptops. This design reduces the overall power consumption of the drive system with our selfdeveloped timing control ICs and also creates ultra-narrow bezel and high screen ratio with a doublesided receiving structure for display panels. For small and medium-size display products, we continuously launch more power-saving and better image quality AMOLED series products and promote the penetration of AMOLED panels from high-end to mid-end smartphones. We also expanded the application to foldable smartphones, tablets, IT NB products, and even foldable AMOLED laptops, breaking ground in the realm of foldable technology for car display products, intelligent vehicle technologies have been rapidly developing, and the display technology and application have been trending towards large screen, high resolution, and touch integration. Raydium has launched timing control ICs to be integrated with drive ICs in order to provide a comprehensive solution for large-screen displays. At the same time, we have also launched TDDI products integrating touch to create an easy-to-use interface for safer, more intuitive, and optimized driving experience.
Highly integrated products are a key focus of of Raydium's product development, including not only the aforementioned TDDI products for car displays, but also display drivers and touch integrated ICs for AMOLED wearables and smartphones. We have been mass-producing TDDI wearable products for years, and we continue to introduce new generations of products to improve power efficiency and display performance. Our TDDI products for smartphones is currently in the development and verification phase to prepare for future demands. In terms of large LCD products, the focus is on the development of TED (Timing controller and Display driver integration) and LTDI (Touch and Display driver integration) ICs for IT products. TED effectively brings into play the

advantages of narrow bezel and low power consumption as well as enhances the added value of driver chips, while LTDI adds active pen functionality to provide better touch experiences and expand application scope.
Raydium has also invested in the development of new-generation display technologies and are committed to providing more comprehensive solutions to our display panel customers. With the "highchannel scanning/direct-drive micro LED and mini LED dual-purpose integrated driver chip", we have been able to increase the output channels to 384 channels and overcome the shortcomings of traditional scanning driver chips with fewer output channels, for which we won the Gold Panel Award 2022.
Facing the vigorous development of the semiconductor industry, Raydium strives to continually evolve to meet the changing environment. By listening to and understand our customer’s needs, we response promptly and efficiently to solve their pain points through technology and service. By continuing to strength research and development capabilities, obtain insights into market demand, invest in new-generation display technologies, and enhance the value of end products, we aim to establish long-term partnerships built on trust with our customers. As the supply chain shifts from a long, centralized chain to a short, decentralized one, establishing supply chain resilience has become an important mission to strengthen our business management. We continue to develop new process capabilities and cultivate diverse supply partners to adapt to the changing supply chain network and ensure uninterrupted supply.
Looking forward to 2023, as the pressure of geopolitics, economic conflicts, inflation, and rising interest rates continue to threaten global economic recovery, in order to tackle challenges and push through difficulties, Raydium will work together as one to reinforce our business resilience, continue to invest in research and development, implement forward-looking new-generation technology, and collaborate with customers and suppliers in creating, sharing, and achieving fruitful business results. Raydium continues to build a good corporate governance culture, comply with laws and regulations, and balance the interests of stakeholders. By promoting the development of a sustainable environment, fulfilling our corporate social responsibility, and implementing a corporate governance culture, we strive to enhance our sustainable competitiveness. We hope that with the support and encouragement of the shareholders, the team at Raydium will spare no effort in creating excellent achievements.
To all shareholders
Wishing you all health, happiness and prosperity. Sincerest regards,
Chairman: Hermit Huang President: Hermit Huang Chief Accounting Officer: Patty Lin

Attachment I:Independent Auditors’ Report and 2022 Consolidated Financial Statements
Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of Raydium Semiconductor Corporation:
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Raydium Semiconductor Corporation (“ the Company”) and its subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the consolidated statements 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 significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for each of 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”), Interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”), and the former Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by 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 Account of Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirement. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Based on our judgment, the key audit matters that should be disclosed in this audit report are as follows:
1. Valuation of inventories
Please refer to note 4(8) for the accounting policy of inventory valuation; note 5 for the estimation and assumption uncertainty of the valuation of inventory; and note 6(4) for information on estimation of the valuation of inventory to the consolidated financial statements.
- 8 -
Description of key audit matter:
The Group may write down the cost of inventories to net realizable value due to normal wear and tear, obsolescence or no market value. The inventory valuation may result in material changes because of decline in demand and prices. Due to the introduction of new products in the market, the original outdated products no longer meet the market demand, resulting in the cost of inventory to exceed its net realizable value. Therefore, the valuation of inventory is one of our key audit matters.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
The principal procedures include testing the inventory aging reports and analyzing the aging of inventories for each period; inspecting the production and sales meetings to assess the destocking; assessing whether the valuation of inventories has been carried out in accordance with the established accounting policies; and performing retrospective testing on inventories to verify the appropriateness of the inventory provision.
- Revenue recognition from contracts with customers
Please refer to note 4(14) “Revenue recognition” for the accounting policy on revenue recognition; and note 6(19) “Revenues from contracts with customers” for revenue recognition.
Description of key audit matter:
The Group mainly engages in the development, design and sale of display driver, touch control, and power management integrated circuit products. The recognition of operating revenue is determined according to the trading conditions agreed with the customers. The Group recognizes revenue depending on the various sales terms in each individual contract with customers to ensure its performance obligation has been satisfied by transferring its control to its customer. It is necessary to determine the performance obligations and the time at which they are satisfied. Therefore, the appropriateness of timing of revenue recognition is one of our key audit matters.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures included understanding and testing the Group's controls surrounding the revenue process and cash collection transaction process; analyzing the type of principal revenue and trading terms; selecting samples and inspecting contracts with customers or customers' orders to assess the adequacy of the Group's timing on revenue recognition; and randomly selecting sales transactions incurred within a certain period before or after the balance sheet date by reviewing documents to ensure that revenue was recognized in the appropriate period.
Other Matter
The Company has prepared its parent-company-only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, on which we have issued an unqualified opinion.
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 with the IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, SIC endorsed and issued into effect 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.
- 9 -
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 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 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 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 and 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.
-
10 -
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.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Chien-Hui Lu and Mei Yu Tseng.

Attachment II:Independent Auditors’ Report and 2022 Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of Raydium Semiconductor Corporation:
Opinion
We have audited the parent-company-only financial statements of Raydium Semiconductor Corporation (“the Company”), which comprise the parent-company-only balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the parent-company-only statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended, then and notes to the parent-company-only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying parent-company-only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the parent-company-only financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and its parent-company-only financial performance and its parent-company-only cash flows for each of the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants 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 Account of Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirement. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the parent-company-only financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of parent-company-only financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Based on our judgment, the key audit matters that should be disclosed in this audit report are as follows:
1. Valuation of inventories
Please refer to note 4(7) for the accounting policy of inventory valuation, note 5 for the estimation and assumption uncertainty of the valuation of inventory, and note 6(4) for information on estimation of the valuation of inventory to the parent-company-only financial statements.
- 16 -
Description of key audit matter:
The parent-company-only Company may write down the cost of inventories to net realizable value due to normal wear and tear, obsolescence or no market value. The inventory valuation may result in material changes because of decline in demand and prices. Due to the introduction of new products in the market, the original outdated products no longer meet the market demand, resulting in the cost of inventory to exceed its net realizable value. Therefore, the valuation of inventory is one of our key audit matters.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
The principal procedures include testing the inventory aging reports and analyzing the aging of inventories for each period; inspecting the production and sales meetings to assess the destocking; assessing whether the valuation of inventories has been carried out in accordance with the established accounting policies; and performing retrospective testing on inventories to verify the appropriateness of the inventory provision.
- Revenue recognition from contracts with customers
Please refer to note 4(14) “Revenue recognition” for the accounting policy on revenue recognition; and note 6(20) “Revenues from contracts with customers” for revenue recognition.
Description of key audit matter:
The Company mainly engages in the development, design and sale of display driver, touch control, and power management integrated circuit products. The recognition of operating revenue is determined according to the trading conditions agreed with the customers. The Company recognizes revenue depending on the various sales terms in each individual contract with customers to ensure its performance obligation has been satisfied by transferring its control to its customer. It is necessary to determine the performance obligations and the time at which they are satisfied. Therefore, the appropriateness of timing of revenue recognition is one of our key audit matters.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
In relation to the key audit matter above, our principal audit procedures included understanding and testing the Company ' s controls surrounding the revenue process and cash collection transaction process; analyzing the type of principal revenue and trading terms; selecting samples and inspecting contracts with customers or customers' orders to assess the adequacy of the Company ' s timing on revenue recognition; and randomly selecting sales transactions incurred within a certain period before or after the balance sheet date by reviewing documents to ensure that revenue was recognized in the appropriate period.
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 Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parentcompany-only financial statements 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 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 Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
- 17 -
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 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 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 judgment 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 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 and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investment in entities accounted for using equity method to express an opinion on the parent-company-only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
- 18 -
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.
The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Chien-Hui Lu and Mei Yu Tseng.
