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, 2023 and 2022, the parent-company-only statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, then and notes to the parent-company-only financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying parent-company-only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and its performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing 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 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 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 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 the 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.

~3~

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.

Description of key audit matter:

The 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.

  1. Revenue recognition from contracts with customers

Please refer to note 4(14) “Revenue recognition” for the accounting policy 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 trade terms 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 timing of 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.

~3-1~

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:

  1. 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.

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

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

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

~3-2~

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 An-Chih Cheng.

4. Summary of material accounting policies:

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these parent-company-only financial statements are summarized as follows. Except for those described individually, the significant accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these parent-company-only financial statements.

  • (1) Statement of compliance

The parent-company-only financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the “ Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” (hereinafter referred to as “the Regulations”).

  • (2) Basis of preparation

  • A. Basis of measurement

The parent-company-only financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the following material items in the balance sheets:

(a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) are measured at fair value;

~9~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

  • (b) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) are measured at fair value; and,

  • (c) The net defined benefit liabilities are measured as the fair value of the plan assets, less, the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

  • B. Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of the Company is determined based on the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The parent-company-only financial statements are presented in New Taiwan Dollars (NTD), which is the Company’ s functional currency. All financial information presented in NTD has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

  • (3) Foreign currencies

  • A. Foreign currency transactions

Transaction in foreign currency are translated into the functional currencies at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, (hereinafter referred to as the reporting date), monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the 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 the functional currencies using the exchange rate at the date when fair value was determined. Non-monetary 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 foreign currency items of financial instruments that applied the accounting policy of IFRS No. 9 "Financial Instruments"

When the profit or loss of non monetary item is recognized in other comprehensive income, then any change in the exchange foreign currency of the above items is recognized in other comprehensive income. When the profit or loss of non monetary item is recognized in profit or loss, then any change in the exchange foreign currency of the above items is recognized in profit or loss.

  • B. Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to NTD using the exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses are translated to NTD at the average rate for the period. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

  • (4) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities

The Company classified an asset as current when any one of the following requirements is met. Assets that are not classified as current are non-current assets.

  • A. It expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its the normal operating cycle;

~10~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

  • B. It holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • C. It expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • D. The asset is cash or 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.

The Company classifies a liability as current when any one of the following requirements is met. Liabilities that are not classified as current are non-current liabilities.

  • A. It expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle;

  • B. It holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • C. The liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • D. 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 counterparty, result in its settlement by issuing equity instruments do not affect its classification.

  • (5) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash and cash in bank. Cash equivalents are short term, and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Time deposits which meet the above definition and held for the purpose of meeting short term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes are classified as cash equivalents.

  • (6) Financial instruments

  • A. Financial assets

The Company classifies financial assets into the following categories: amortized cost, FVOCI and FVTPL.

The Company shall reclassify all affected financial assets only when it changes its business model for managing its financial assets.

  • (a) Financial assets 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.

~11~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

Such financial assets are initially recognized at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, these assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. 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. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is recognized and derecognized, as applicable, using trade date accounting.

(b) Financial assets at FVOCI

A debt investment is measured at FVOCI 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 achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; 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.

Some accounts receivable are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling by the Company, therefore, those receivables are measured at FVOCI.

On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to present subsequent fair value changes in the investments in other comprehensive income. This election is made on an instrument-by-instrument basis.

A financial asset measured at FVOCI is initially recognized at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses, impairment losses deriving from debt investments, and dividends income of equity investment (unless the dividend clearly represent a recovery part of the cost of investment) are recognized in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses of financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in unrealized gains or losses of financial assets measured at FVOCI under equity. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in other comprehensive income of debt investments are reclassified to profit or loss. However, gains and losses accumulated in other comprehensive income of equity investments are reclassified to retain earnings instead of profit or loss.

Dividend income is recognized in profit or loss on the date on which the Company’s right to receive payment is established.

(c) Financial assets at FVTPL

All financial assets not classified as amortized cost or FVOCI described as above are measured at FVTPL. On initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designates 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.

~12~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

Such financial assets are initially recognized at fair value, and attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss.

(d) Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes loss allowances for expected credit loss (ECL) on financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and other financial assets), and debt investments measured at FVOCI.

The Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime ECL, except for the financial instrument that is determined to have low credit risk (the risk of default in financial instrument duration) at the reporting date and the credit risk thereof has not increased significantly since initial recognition, which is measured at an amount equal to the 12-month expected credit losses. Loss allowance for accounts receivable are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL.

12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs 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).

Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Company is exposed to credit risk.

ECLs are probability-weighted estimate of credit losses over the expected life of financial assets. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls, the difference between the cash flows due to the Company in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Company expects to receive. ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, the Company considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both qualitative and quantitative information and analysis, based on the Company's historical experience and informed credit assessment, as well as forwardlooking information.

In the circumstance that a financial asset is past due or the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Company in full, the Company considers the credit risk on that financial asset has significantly increased, or further, to be in default.

Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt securities at FVOCI, the loss allowance is charged to profit or loss and is recognized in other comprehensive income instead of reducing the carrying amount of the asset. The Company recognizes the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) in profit or loss, as an impairment gain or loss.

~13~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off either partially or in full to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

(e) Derecognition of financial assets

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

  • B. Financial liabilities and equity instruments

  • (a) Classification of debt or equity

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as financial liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual agreements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences residual interest in the assets after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued are recognized as the amount of consideration received, less the direct cost of issuing.

(b) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities that are not classified as held-for-trading or designated as at FVTPL, which comprise loans borrowings and accounts payable, are measured at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction cost at the time of initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost calculated using the effective interest method.

(c) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire.

On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability extinguished and the consideration paid is recognized in profit or loss.

  • (d) Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the statement of balance sheet when, and only the Company currently has the legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

~14~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

(7) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average method, and includes expenditures and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.

(8) Investment in subsidiaries

The Company’s subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method when preparing their parentcompany-only financial statements. Under the equity method, profit, other comprehensive income and equity in the parent-company-only financial statements are equivalent to those of the profit, other comprehensive income and equity which are contributed to the owners of the parent in the consolidated financial statements.

The changes in the parent’ s interest in its subsidiaries that do not result in a loss of control are accounted as equity transactions.

  • (9) Property, plant and equipment

  • A. 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 recognized in profit or loss.

  • B. Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company.

  • C. 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.

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years of significant items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

  • (a) Research equipment: 2~4 years

  • (b) Transportation equipment: 6 years

  • (c) Office equipment: 3~5 years

  • (d) Leasehold improvement: 2 years

~15~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

Depreciation methods, useful lives, and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.

  • (10) Leases

  • A. Identifying a lease

At inception of a contract, the Company 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. To assess whether a contract is a lease, the Company assesses whether:

  • (a) the contract involves the use of an identified asset – this may be specified explicitly or implicitly, and should be physically distinct or represent substantially all of the capacity of a physically distinct asset. If the supplier has a substantive substitution right, then the asset is not identified; and

  • (b) the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset throughout the period of use; and

  • (c) the Company has the right to direct the use of an asset if either:

  • The Company has the right to direct use of the identified asset when it has the decision-making rights that are most relevant to the changes on how and for what purpose the asset is used throughout the period.

  • The relevant decisions about how and for what purpose the asset is used are predetermined and:

    • the Company has the right to operate the asset without the supplier having the right to change those operating instructions; or

    • the Company designs the asset in a way that predetermines how and for what purpose it will be used.

At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices. However, for the leases of land and buildings in which it is a lessee, the Company has elected not to separate non-lease components and account for the lease and nonlease components as a single lease component.

  • B. As a lessee

The Company 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.

~16~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

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 Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:

  • (a) fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;

  • (b) variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;

  • (c) amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and

  • (d) payments for purchase or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised.

The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when:

  • (a) there is a change in future lease payments arising from the change in an index or rate; or

  • (b) there is a change in the Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; or

  • (c) there is a change in the assessment regarding the purchase option; or

  • (d) the estimate of whether to exercise the option to extend or terminate has changed, thereby changing the assessment of the lease period; or

  • (e) there is modifications of the subject, scope, or other terms of the lease

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, and the remaining remeasured amount is recognized in profit or 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 Company 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 the profit or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease.

The Company presents its right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment properties and lease liabilities as a separate line item respectively in the balance sheets.

~17~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

The Company has elected not to recognize the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for its offices, employee dormitory, telecommunication equipment and parking lot, which qualify as short-term leases, as well as its other equipment, which qualify as short-term leases and lowvalue assets leases. The relevant lease payments are recognized in expense on a straight line basis during the lease period.

  • (11) Intangible assets

  • A. 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 Company 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 patents, that are acquired by the Company and have finite useful lives are measured at cost, less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.

  • B. 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 is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

  • C. 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 the current and comparative periods are as follows:

  • (a) Patents and technology: 2~5 years

  • (b) Computer software cost: 0.5~5 years

Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.

~18~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

(12) Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date, the Company 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 using impairment test. 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 from other assets or cash generating units (CGUs). Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to cashgenerating units (“CGUs”) or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating units (CGU) are 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 the 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.

  • (13) Provisions

A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation arising from a past event, it is probable that the Company will be required to make an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits to settle the obligation, and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. When the time value of currency is significant, the provision for liabilities is discounted at current pre-tax rates that adequately reflect the specific risks of the liabilities. The amount of the liabilities increased by time, is recognized as the borrowing cost when the liabilities are discounted.

A provision for warranties is measured with weighting factors based on historical experience of warranty claims rate and other possible outcomes against their associated probabilities.

  • (14) Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The Company 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 Company’s main types of revenue are explained below.

~19~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

A. Sale of goods

Revenue is recognized when the control over a product has been transferred to the customer. 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, as well as when the product has been accepted by the customer according to the terms of sales contract, or when the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.

When the Company receives an advance payment from a customer, the advance amount of such future performance obligation shall be recognized as a contractual obligation, which shall be derecognized when the performance obligation is satisfied and then recognized as revenue.

A receivable is recognized when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the Company has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional.

Due to the application of IFRS 15, the sale return and allowance based on historical experience and other known causes were reclassified to provision of liabilities.

  • B. Financing components

The Company expects that the length of time when the Company transfers the goods or services to the customer and when the customer pays for those goods or services will be less than one year. Therefore, the amount of consideration is not adjusted for the time value of money.

  • (15) Employee benefits

  • A. Defined contribution plans

Obligations for contributions to the defined contribution plans are expensed as related services is provided.

  • B. Defined benefit plans

The Company’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated separately for each of 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 Company, 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.

~20~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability, 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 Company determines the net interest expense 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 the defined benefit plans are recognized in profit or loss.

When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefit that relates to past service or the gain or loss on curtailment is recognized immediately in profit or loss. The Company recognizes gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.

C. Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits obligations are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amounts expected to be paid if the Company 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.

  • (16) Share-based payment transaction

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 amounts 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 shall be based on the number of awards that meet the related services 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 expected and actual outcomes.

Grant date of a share-based payment award is the date at which the Company and employees reach a consensus in the subscription price and number of shares.

  • (17) Income taxes

Income taxes comprise 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 shall be recognized in profit or loss.

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.

~21~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax basis at the reporting date.

Deferred taxes are not recognized for the following exceptions:

  • A. temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profits (losses) at the time of the transaction;

  • B. temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements to the extent that the Company 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

  • C. 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 reverse, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and reflect the uncertainty related to income taxes, if any.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if the following criteria are met:

  • A. the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and

  • B. the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either:

  • (a) the same taxable entity; or

  • (b) 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.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for 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.

  • (18) Earnings per share

The Company discloses the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company. The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the profit attributable to the ordinary shareholders of the Company, divided by the weighted-average number of current ordinary shares outstanding. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding after adjustment for the effects of all potential dilutive ordinary shares, such as employee compensation not yet approved by the Board of Directors and can be issued by stock and unvested restricted employee stock awards.

  • (19) Operating segments information

The Company has disclosed operating segment information in consolidated financial statements. Hence, this information is not required to be disclosed in these parent-company-only financial statements.

5. Significant Accounting Judgments, and Major Sources of Estimation and Assumptions Uncertainty:

The preparation of the parent-company-only financial statements in conformity with the Regulations requires management to make 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 estimations and assumptions. It recognizes any changes in the accounting estimations during the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Information about critical judgements, estimates and assumptions in applying accounting policies that have the significant effect on the amounts recognized in the parent-company-only financial statements is as follows:

Valuation of inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, the Company uses judgements and estimates the net realizable value of inventories for obsolescence and unmarketable items at the reporting period. It also writes down the cost of inventories to net realizable value. This inventory valuation may result in material changes in product demand due to the introduction of new products in the market, obsolescence or non-conformity of the original products, which may result in lower demand and prices, resulting in the risk that the cost of inventories may exceed its net realizable value. Please refer Note 6(4) for valuation of Inventory.

The Company’s accounting policies and disclosures include the fair value measurement for financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The financial management center of the Company is responsible for performing fair value verification and bringing the evaluation results comparable to market price based on independent, reliable, and representative executable price information. The Company also periodically assesses the evaluation model, performs retrospective tests, and updates inputs together with any other necessary fair value adjustment for the evaluation model in order to ensure the reasonableness of the results of the valuation.

The Company evaluates the assets and liabilities using the observable market inputs. The hierarchy of the fair value depends on the valuation techniques used and is categories 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 assets or liabilities, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

  • Level 3: inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

For any transfer within the fair value hierarchy, the Company recognizes the transfer on the reporting date. For the assumption used in fair value measurement, please refer to note 6(23).

The Company has assessed a portion of its trade receivables that was held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; therefore, such trade receivables were measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

The Company uses a simplified approach to provide for its expected credit losses, i.e. the use of lifetime expected loss provision for all receivable. To measure the expected credit losses, accounts receivable have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due, as well as the incorporated forward-looking information.

The accounts receivable from related parties having significant impact over the Company and other individuals amounted to $1,653,203 thousand and $2,116,155 thousand as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The days past due is less than 100 days, so there is no expected credit loss for the duration of the related party's accounts receivable.

The loss allowance provision of customers with relatively low credit risk was determined as follows:

  • Note 1: The above-mentioned amounts have been reclassified to other receivables. The terms of the transaction relating to factoring are based on the factoring consent for buyer. Such transaction should be factoring without recourse.

  • Note 2: Within the factoring quota, if the original debtor is unable to pay or may be unable to pay due to financial difficulties, the risk of non-payment will be borne by the purchasing agency, not the Company. The original debtor’s credit risk will be borne by the purchasing agency and the credit risk described above is the uncollectable debt risk due to default by the original debtor without reasonable cause.

  • Note 3: The Company informed the original debtor pursuant to account receivables to make payment directly to the Company’s restricted account with the purchasing bank.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, total outstanding receivables after the above transactions, net of fees charged by purchasing bank, of $2,123,891 thousand and $1,131,859 thousand were recognized as other current financial assets; please refer to note 6(9).

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company’s unused factoring quota amounted to $2,330,219 thousand and $3,139,889 thousand, respectively.

  • B. Impairment test on goodwill and other intangible assets (patents and technologies)

The Company conducts impairment tests on goodwill and intangible assets. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, it was determined that the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to be greater than its carrying amount based on their value in use; hence, no impairment loss were recognized.

The key assumptions used in the estimation of value in use were as follows:

Discount Rate
Revenue growth rate
Sustainable growth rate
December 31,
2023
December 31,
2022
12%
15%
5%~14%
-6%~5%
3%
2%

The discount rate was based on the industry-weighted average cost of capital and adjusted for a risk premium to reflect both the increased risk of generally investing in equities and the systemic risk of the specific cash-generating unit.

Revenue growth rate was projected by taking into account the average growth levels experienced over the past few years and by projecting sales growth over the next five years.

The cash flow projection was based on the five-year financial budget as assessed by management, and for cash flows projections over five years, it was extrapolated in reference to the economic growth rate where the unit operates.

When the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit is greater than the carrying amount, the management identifies the discount rate and the sustainable growth rate as key assumptions. The reasonable likelihood of a change in the above two key assumptions would expose the carrying amount to the risk of exceeding its recoverable amount. However, the management analyzed that the above key assumptions would not have resulted in a loss of impairment if they are at a negative status of 0.5%.

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

The Company’s dividend policy is to pay dividends from surplus considering factors such as the Company’ s current and future investment environment, cash requirements, domestic and overseas competitive conditions and capital budget requirements, while taking into account shareholders’ interest, maintenance of balanced dividend and the Company’ s long-term financial plan. An annual dividend of not less than 10 percent of the distributable surplus is provided for the shareholders, wherein the cash portion of the dividend, which may be in the form of cash and stock, shall not be less than 10% of the total dividend distributed during the year.

(a) Legal reserve

In accordance with the ROC Company Act, 10 percent of the net profit shall be allocated as legal reserve until the accumulated legal reserve equals the paid-in capital. If the Company incurs no loss, the reserve may be distributed as cash or stock dividends for the portion in excess of 25% of the paid-in capital.

(b) Special reserve

In accordance with Rule No. 1090150022 issued by the FSC on March 31, 2021, a portion of current earnings and previous unappropriated earnings shall be set aside as a special reserve during earnings distribution. The amount to be set aside should equal the total amount of contra accounts that are accounted for as deductions to other equity interests.

(22) Remuneration to employees, and directors

In accordance with the articles of incorporation, when the Company incurred profit for the year, the profit should first be used to offset against any deficit (including unappropriated retained earnings); then, no less than 1% of the profit (income before tax, excluding remuneration to employees and directors) shall be distributed as employee remuneration, and no more than 1% as directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration.

The aforementioned shall be resolved by the board of directors and reported to the shareholders' meeting:

Employees, including those belonging to affiliate companies that meet certain conditions, are entitled to the abovementioned remuneration, which to be distributed in stock or cash, employee stock option certificates, restricted employee shares, treasury stock purchased and transferred to employees, as well as employee stocks when issuing new shares. The said conditions and distribution method are decided by Board of Directors or the personnel authorized by Board of Directors.

For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the amounts of remuneration to employees were estimated at $270,959 thousand and $789,985 thousand, respectively; and those to the directors were estimated at $12,747 thousand and $42,702 thousand, respectively. The estimation basis shall be calculated as the amounts of net income before tax, excluding the remuneration to employees and directors, multiplied by the percentage remuneration to employees and directors, as specified in the Company’s articles of incorporation. These remuneration were expensed under operating costs or expenses for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. If there are changes in the proposed amounts after the annual parent-company-only financial statements have been authorized for issuance, the differences are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates and adjusted prospectively in profit or loss in the following year. However, if the Board of Directors resolved that the employee remuneration is to be paid in the form of stocks, the closing price of the ordinary share on the day before the Board of Directors’ meeting will be used to calculate the number of stock shares.

There were no differences between the aforesaid amounts of employee and directors’ remuneration approved by the Board of Directors and the amounts in the 2022 consolidated financial statements. Related information is available on the Market Observation Post System website of the Taiwan Stock Exchange.

  • (23) Financial instruments

A. Credit risk

  • (a) Credit risk exposure

The carrying amount of financial assets represent the maximum amounts exposed to credit risk.

~46~

Raydium Semiconductor Corporation Notes to the Financial Statements

(b) Credit risk concentration

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. As of the financial reporting date, the maximum credit risk exposure of the Company due to non-performance of the counterparty mainly derived from the carrying amount of the financial assets recognized in the balance sheet of the Company.

The Company’s potential credit risk is derived primarily from cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables. The cash is deposited in different financial institutions. The Company manages the credit risk exposure with each of these financial institutions and believes that cash and cash equivalents do not have a significant credit risk concentration.

Prior to granting credit facilities to customers in accordance with the credit procedures, the Company will require insurance for accounts receivable from certain customer groups in order to reduce the credit risk of accounts receivable, and use historical trading experience to continuously assess the financial condition, credit condition and current economic environment of the customers.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company’s five largest customers accounted for approximately 58% and 72% of the balance of accounts receivable (including related persons), respectively. After an assessment has been made on the lifetime expected credit losses of the accounts receivable, the management expects no significant losses in the future.

(c) Credit risk of receivables

For credit risk exposure on accounts receivable, please refer to note 6(3).

Other financial assets at amortized cost include other receivables, guarantee deposit and restricted bank deposits.

All financial assets, excluding the abovementioned accounts receivable, are considered to be low risk, and thus, the impairment provision recognized during the period was limited to 12 months expected losses. (Please refer to Note 4(6) for further details).

(b) Sensitivity analysis

The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises mainly from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, other financial assets, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and deposits received that are denominated in foreign currency. A strengthening (weakening) of 1% of the NTD against the USD, CNY, and JPY as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, assuming that all other variables remain constant, would have increased or decreased the profit after tax by $12,111 thousand and $16,769 thousand, respectively.

(c) Foreign exchange gains (losses) on monetary items

As the Company deals with diverse foreign currencies, gains and losses on foreign exchange were summarized as a single amount. The aggregate of realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $(2,922) thousand and $745,810 thousand, respectively.

D. Interest rate analysis

An increase or decrease of 0.25% in interest rates, mainly from cash and cash equivalents, restricted bank deposits and short-term borrowings, with floating interest rates at the reporting date, assuming all other variables remain constant, would have increased or decreased net income by $2,896 thousand and $4,178 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

E. Other market price risk

The impact of the changes in equity price on other comprehensive income was as follows, assuming the analysis use the same basis for both years, with other factors remaining constant:

(b) Fair value valuation technique of financial instruments measured at fair value

Non-derivative financial instruments

The listed shares and beneficiary certificates held by the Company are measured at fair value according to standard provision and conditions, and are traded in active markets, with the fair value being measured using the quoted price in an active market. Except for the above mentioned financial assets with active market transactions, the fair value of unlisted shares held by the Company is estimated using the market-comparable company method, which is measured by using price-book ratio of the peers.

  • (c) There was no transfer between the different levels of fair value hierarchy for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
