Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of RECTRON LTD. Company ：

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of RECTRON LTD (“the Company”), which comprise the statement of balance sheets as of December 31,2022 and 2023, the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors (please refer to Other Matter paragraph), the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2023, and its financial 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 of Audit Opinion

We, as auditors, have conducted our audit work in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Audit Signatures of Certified Public Accountants and the Auditing Standards. Our CPA s responsibility under these standards will be further explained in the paragraph of responsibility of the accountant for examining the financial statements. The personnel of our accounting firm, who are subject to independence regulations, have maintained independence in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants and fulfilled other responsibilities prescribed by the regulations. They have maintained a professional and objective stance in relation to Rectron LTD. and its subsidiaries. We believe that we have obtained adequate and appropriate audit evidence to form the basis of our audit opinion.

Key audit matters

The key audit matters refer to those matters that, in the auditor's professional judgment, are of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of Rectron Ltd. for the year ended 2023. Such items have been taken into consideration in the process of auditing the overall financial reports and forming audit opinions. The accountant does not express opinions on such items separately. Our CPA determined to address the following key auditing matters in the accountant’s report:

Revenue Recognition
Please refer to Note 4 (m) of the financial statements for details on the accounting policy for revenue recognition. Additionally, refer to Note 6 (o) of the financial statements for a breakdown of revenue by customer contracts.
Key Audit Matters

Rectron LTD. primarily derives its revenue from the manufacturing and sale of various rectifiers and other semiconductor components. The risk lies in the accuracy of revenue recognition. The company's viability and ongoing operations depend on a consistent inflow of cash generated from revenue. Therefore, the company's business strategy and operational management start with revenue. Consequently, testing revenue recognition is one of the key assessment areas for auditors in conducting the financial statement audit of Rectron LTD.

Auditing procedures performed:

The main audit procedures performed by the auditor for the above-mentioned key audit matters include testing the controls and effectiveness of the sales and cash collection cycle, as well as sampling the accuracy of recognizing sales revenue around the balance sheet date, which involves verifying warehouse

～

dispatch records and comparing contractual terms. The auditor also evaluates whether control over the goods has been transferred at the appropriate recognition point.

Inventory valuation
Regarding inventory valuation, please refer to Note 4 (g) "Inventory" for the accounting policy. For the accounting estimates and assumptions related to inventory valuation and their uncertainties, please refer to Note 5 (b). Further explanation on the assessment of inventory valuation can be found in Note 6 (d) "Inventory" of the financial statements.
Key Audit Matters

The valuation of inventory for Rectron Ltd. is subject to the risk of cost exceeding its net realizable value due to fluctuations in international raw material prices and market supply and demand conditions, which may result in significant fluctuations in product selling prices and sales volumes. Therefore, the testing of inventory valuation is considered as one of the important assessment matters in the auditor's examination of Rectron Ltd.'s financial statements.

Auditing procedures performed:

The main audit procedures performed by the auditor for the above-mentioned key audit matters include reviewing the inventory aging report, analyzing the changes in inventory aging over different periods, assessing the reasonableness of Rectron Ltd.'s accounting policies and their implementation, conducting trend analysis on the treatment of obsolete inventory, understanding the basis and methods of inventory valuation, and comparing relevant variances to identify any significant abnormalities.

Other Matters

We did not audit the financial statements of certain investees, which represented investments in other entities accounted for using the equity method of the Company. Those statements were audited by other auditors, whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for those investees, is based solely on the reports of other auditors. The investments in those investees accounted for using the equity method constituting 7% and 8% of total assets at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and the related share of profit of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method constituting (6)% and 34% of total profit before tax for the years then ended respectively.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

The management is responsible for the preparation of the appropriate financial statements, which are in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards for Issuers of Securities and approved and issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission, as well as the applicable International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, Interpretations, and Interpretive Bulletins. They are also responsible for maintaining necessary internal controls related to the preparation of the financial statements to ensure that they are free from material misstatement caused by fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the management's responsibility also includes assessing the ability of the Rectron Ltd. to continue as a going concern, making relevant disclosures, and adopting the going concern basis of accounting unless there are intentions to liquidate the Rectron Ltd. or cease its operations, or unless there are no other practical alternative courses of action other than liquidation or cessation.

The governance body of Rectron Ltd., including the Audit Committee, has the responsibility to oversee the financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Non-Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 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 financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and performed audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtained 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 Rectron LTD. 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 Rectron LTD. ability to continue as a going concern. If we determine that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on Rectron Ltd. 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.

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 financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Shih-Chin Chih and Li-Chen Lai.

4. Summary of significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies presented in the financial statements are summarized below. Except for those specifically indicated, the following accounting policies were applied consistently throughout the periods presented in the financial statements.

(a) Statement of compliance

The non-consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

(b) Basis of consolidation

i.Basis of measurement

The non-consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following material items in the balance sheets:
1) Financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value;
2) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value;
3) The net defined benefit liability is recognized as the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets.
ii.Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each Company entities is determined based on the primary economic environment in which the entities operate. The non-consolidated financial statements are presented in New Taiwan Dollar, which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial information presented in New Taiwan Dollar has been rounded to the nearest thousand.
(a) Foreign currency
Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the respective functional currencies of Group entities at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into 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 that the 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 those differences relating to the following, which are recognized in other comprehensive income:

(i) an investment in equity securities designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income; (ii) a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation to the extent that the hedge is effective; or
(iii) qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent that the hedges are effective.
Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated into the presentation currency at the exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated into the presentation currency at the average exchange rate. Exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence, or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Company disposes of only part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interests. When the Company disposes of only part of its investment in an associate or joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant influence or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.

When the settlement of a monetary receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future, Exchange differences arising from such a monetary item that are considered to form part of the net investment in the foreign operation are recognized in other comprehensive income.

(d) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
An asset is classified as current under one of the following criteria, and all other assets are classified as non-current.
It is expected to be realized, or intended to be sold or consumed, in the normal operating cycle;
It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
It is expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or
The asset is cash or a cash equivalent (as defined in IAS 7) unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

A liability is classified as current under one of the following criteria, and all other liabilities are classified as non-current.

An entity shall classify a liability as current when:

It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;
It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
The Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by issuing equity instruments do not affect its classification.
(e) Cash and cash equivalents

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

(f) Financial instruments

Trade receivables and debt securities issued are initially recognized when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) or financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A trade receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the transaction price.

(1) Financial assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at: amortized cost; Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) – debt investment; FVOCI – equity investment; or FVTPL. Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in the business model.

(i) Financial assets measured at amortized cost
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost, which is the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial recognition, plus/minus, the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method, adjusted for any loss allowance. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses, as well as impairment, are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on recognition is recognized in profit or loss.

(ii) Fair value through other comprehensive income (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.

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

Debt investments at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income. On recognition, gains and losses accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

Equity investments at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognized as income in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss.

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

(iii) Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses (ECL) on financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents, amortized costs, trade receivables and notes receivable, other receivables, leases receivable, guarantee deposit paid and other financial assets), debt investments measured at FVOCI and contract assets.

The Company measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECL, except for the following which are measured as 12-month ECL:

debt securities that are determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date ； and
other debt securities and bank balances for which credit risk (i.e. the risk of default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument) has not increased significantly since initial recognition.

Loss allowance for trade receivables and contract assets are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL.

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 quantitative and qualitative information and analysis based on the Company’s historical experience and informed credit assessment as well as forward-looking information.

The Company assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 180 days past due.

The Company considers a financial asset to be in default when the financial asset is more than 365 days past due or the debtor is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Company in full.

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

The Company considers a debt security to have low credit risk when its credit risk rating is equivalent to the globally understood definition of ‘investment grade which is considered to be BBB- or higher per Standard & Poor’s, Baa3 or higher per Moody’s or twA or higher per Taiwan Ratings’.

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

12-month ECL are the portion of ECL that result from default events that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months).

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

ECL are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e the difference between the cash flows due to the Company in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Company expects to receive). ECL are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:

significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer ；
a breach of contract such as a default or being more than 365 days past due ；
the lender of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower's financial difficulty, having granted to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider ；
it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization ； or

 the disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties.

Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt securities at FVOCI, the loss allowance is charge to profit or loss and is recognized in other comprehensive income instead of reducing the carrying amount of the asset.

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when the Company has no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. For corporate customers, the Company individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Company expects no significant recovery from the amount written off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

(iv) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset. The Company enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognized in its statement of balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets. In these cases, the transferred assets are not derecognized.

(2) Financial liabilities
(i) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognized in profit or loss.

Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognized in profit or loss.

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

(ii)Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire. The Company also derecognizes a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognized at fair value.

On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss.

(iii) Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities

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

(g) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average method, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs, and other costs incurred in bringing them to their present location and condition. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.

(h) Subsidiaries

The subsidiaries in which the Company holds controlling interest are accounted for under equity method in the non-consolidated financial statements. Under equity method, the net income, other comprehensive income and equity in the non-consolidated financial statement are the same as those attributable to the owners of parent in the consolidated financial statements.

The changes in ownership of the subsidiaries not causing losing controls, are recognized as equity transaction.

(i) Investment property

Investment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods orservices,orforadministrativepurposes.Investmentpropertyismeasuredatcostoninitialrecognition, and subsequently at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation expense is calculated based on the depreciation method, useful life, and residual value which are the same as those adopted for property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an investment property (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount) is recognized in profit or loss.

Rental income from investment property is recognized as other revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognized as an integral part of the total rental income over the term of the lease.

(j) Property, plant and equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, which includes capitalized borrowing costs, less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

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 profitor loss.

(ii)Subsequent expenditure

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

(iii) Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated on the cost of an asset, less its residual value, and is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each component of an item of property, plant and equipment.

Land is not depreciated.

The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment for current and comparative periods are as follows:

(1) Buildings 5～55years
(2) Machinery 5 ～ 10years
(3) Office equipment 3 ～ 10 years

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

(iv) Reclassification of self-used properties in to investment properties

TheCompanyusedthebookvalueofitsself-usedpropertiestoreclassifythemintoinvestmentproperties.

(k) Leases
(i) 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. As a lease

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.

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:

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;
amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and
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:

there is a change in future lease payments arising from the change in an index or rate; or
there is a change in the Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; or
there is a change in the lease term resulting from a change of its assessment on whether it will exercise an option to purchase the underlying asset, or
there is a change of its assessment on whether it will exercise a extension or termination option; or
there is any lease modification

When the lease liability is remeasured, other than lease modifications, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or in profit and loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

When the lease liability is remeasured to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease for lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease, the 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 in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease. The Company presents right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment and lease liabilities as a separate line item respectively in the statement of financial position.

The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases of Office equipment that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets, including IT equipment. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

For sale-and-leaseback transactions, the Company applies the requirements for determining when a performance obligation is satisfied in IFRS15 to determine whether the transfer of an asset is accounted for as a sale of the asset. If the transfer of an asset satisfies the requirement of IFRS15 to be accounted for as a sale of the asset, the Company derecognizes the transferred asset, then measures the right-of-use asset arising from the leaseback at the proportion of the previous carrying amount of the asset that relates to the right of use retained. Accordingly, the Company recognizes only the amount of any gain or loss that relates to the rights transferred to the buyer-lessor. For leaseback transaction, the Company applies the lessee accounting policy. If the transfer of an asset does not satisfy the requirement of IFRS15 to be accounted for as a sale of the asset, the Company continues to recognize the transferred asset and recognizes the financial liability equal to the transfer proceeds.

(ii)As a lessor

When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease commencement whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease. To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers to the lessee substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, then the lease is a finance lease; if not, then the lease is an operating lease. As part of this assessment, the Group considers certain indicators such as whether the lease is for the major part of the economic life of the asset.

When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease. If a head lease is a short-term lease to which the Group applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease.

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, the Group applies IFRS15 to allocate the consideration in the contract.

The Group recognizes a finance lease receivable at an amount equal to its net investment in the lease. Initial direct costs, such as lessors to negotiate and arrange a lease, are included in the measurement of the net investment. The interest income is recognized over the lease term based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease. The Group recognizes lease payments received under operating leases as income on a straight-line basis over the lease term as part of ‘other income’.

(l) Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other than inventories, contract assets, deferred tax assets and investment properties and biological assets, measured at fair value, less costs) to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment.

For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or cash-generating units (CGUs ） . Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU.

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. They are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

(m) Revenue Recognition

(i) Revenue from customer contracts

Revenue is measured by the consideration expected to be received in exchange for the transfer of goods or services. The company recognizes revenue when control over the goods or services is transferred to the customer, thereby satisfying performance obligations. The company provides the following explanations based on its primary revenue streams:

(1) Sale of Goods - Electronic Rectifier Diodes and Semiconductor Passive Components
The company manufactures electronic components and sells them to electronic equipment manufacturers. Revenue is recognized when control over the products is transferred. Control over the product is deemed to have been transferred when the product has been delivered to the customer, the customer has the full ability to decide on the sales channel and price of the product, and there are no unfulfilled obligations affecting the customer's acceptance of the product. Delivery occurs when the products are shipped to a specific location, and the Company risks of obsolescence, deterioration, and loss have been transferred to customers. Customers have accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance clauses have expired, or the merging company has objective evidence that all acceptance criteria have been met.

The Company shall recognize accounts receivable at the time of delivery of commodities, since the Company has the right to receive consideration unconditionally at that time.

(2) Rental income
Rental income from investment properties and income from leasing real estate are recognized as lease income in the operating revenue item.
(3) Financial Components

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

The company expects that the time between the transfer of goods or services to customers and the customer's payment for those goods or services does not exceed one year. Therefore, the company does not adjust the transaction price for the time value of money.

(n) Employee benefits

(i) Defined contribution plans

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

(ii) Defined benefit plans

The Group’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated separately for each the plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair value of any plan assets.

The calculation of defined benefit obligations is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a potential asset for the Group, the recognized asset is limited to the present value of economic benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. To calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any applicable minimum funding requirements.

Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability, which comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income, and accumulated in retained earnings within equity. The Group determines the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liability (asset) for the period by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation at the beginning of the annual period to the then-net defined benefit liability (asset). Net interest expense and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in profit or loss.

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 Group recognizes gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.

(iii) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

(o) 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 are recognized in profit or loss.

The Group has determined that the global minimum top-up tax – which it is required to pay under Pillar Two legislation – is an income tax in the scope of IAS 12. The Group has applied a temporary mandatory relief from deferred tax accounting for the impacts of the top-up tax and accounts for it as a current tax when it is incurred.

Current taxes comprise the expected tax payables or receivables on the taxable profits (losses) for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax payables or receivables are the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reflects uncertainty related to income taxes, if any. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities at the reporting date and their respective tax bases. Deferred taxes are recognized except for the following:

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

(i) temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profits (losses)and does not give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences
(ii)temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and
(iii) taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for the carry forward of unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefits will be realized.

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 uncertainty related to income taxes, if any.

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

(i) the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
(ii) the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either:
- (1) the same taxable entity; or
- (2) different taxable entities which intend to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis, or to realize the assets and liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
(p) Earnings per share

The Group discloses the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company. Basic earnings per share is calculated as the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated as the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding after adjustment for the effects of all potentially dilutive ordinary shares,

(q) Operating segments

Please refer to the consolidated financial report of Rectron Ltd. for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 for operating segments information.

5. Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management has made judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The management continues to monitor the accounting estimates and assumptions. The management recognizes any changes in accounting estimates during the period and the impact of those changes in accounting estimates in the following period.

The following assumptions and estimates involve significant uncertainties that could result in material adjustments to

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year and have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Details of these assumptions and estimates are provided below:

(a) Allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on assumptions regarding default risk and expected loss rates. The company considers historical experience, current market conditions, and forward-looking estimates on each reporting date to determine the assumptions and inputs to be used in calculating impairment. For detailed explanation of the related assumptions and input values, please refer to Note 6(d).

(b)Inventory evaluation

Due to the requirement to measure inventory at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower, the Company assesses the amount of inventory cost to be written down to net realizable value due to normal wear and tear, obsolescence, or lack of market sales value as of the evaluation report date. The inventory valuation is primarily based on estimates of product demand during a specific future period, and may be subject to significant changes due to rapid changes in the industry. Please refer to Note 6(4) for details on the inventory valuation estimate.

The company's accounting policies and disclosures include the use of fair value measurement for its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The company has established internal control systems for fair value measurement. This includes establishing an assessment team responsible for reviewing all significant fair value measurements (including level 3 fair value) and reporting directly to the Chief Financial Officer. The assessment team periodically reviews significant unobservable inputs and adjustments. If third-party information (such as brokers or pricing service organizations) is used as inputs to measure fair value, the assessment team will evaluate the evidence supporting the input values provided by the third party to ensure that the valuation and its fair value classification comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Investment properties are periodically valued by the company based on the evaluation methods and parameter assumptions specified by the Financial Supervisory Commission, or by external appraisers commissioned by the company.

The company strives to use market observable inputs as much as possible when measuring its assets and liabilities. The fair value level is classified based on the input values used by the valuation technique, as follows: (1) Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

(2) Level 2: Inputs for the asset or liability that are directly (i.e., prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices) observable, excluding those included in Level 1.
(3) Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are unobservable (i.e., non-market observable inputs).

In the event of transfers between different levels of fair value hierarchy, the company recognizes the transfer on the reporting date.

Please refer to the following notes for information related to the assumptions used in measuring fair value:

Note 6(h): Investment properties.
Note 6(r): Financial instruments.

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

Investment properties are self-owned assets held by the Companies. The lease term for investment properties ranges from 1 to 6 years, and it is non-cancellable.
Due to the restriction in the law at that time, private entities were not allowed to acquire agricultural land. Therefore, the Companies appointed Mr. Lin Wen-Teng, one of the directors, to register the real estate investment under his personal name. To ensure the preservation of the Companies' assets, the property has been pledged back to the Companies.
The fair value of investment properties is based on evaluations conducted by independent appraisers who possess recognized professional qualifications and recent relevant experience in evaluating properties of similar location and type. These evaluations are based on market value. In the absence of active market prices, the appraisal considers the aggregate of estimated cash flows expected to be generated by renting out the property, and applies a discount rate that reflects the specific risks inherent in those net cash flows to determine the property's value.
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022 the Property, plant and equipment of the Company had been pledged as collateral for long-term borrowings; please refer to note 8.

However, when the statutory surplus reserve has reached the Company's paid-in capital, no further appropriation is required. The remaining surplus shall be appropriated or reversed as required by laws and regulations, or transferred to the special surplus reserve. If there is still surplus, together with undistributed surplus at the beginning of the period, it will be classified as distributable surplus. The Board of Directors shall propose a surplus distribution plan for approval by the shareholders' meeting, and distribute dividends to the shareholders.

Taking into account financial, operational, and business factors, the Company may distribute dividends to shareholders, which shall not be less than 10% of the distributable surplus for the current fiscal year. However, if the accumulated distributable surplus is less than 3% of the paidin capital, no distribution shall be made. Dividends may be distributed in the form of cash dividends or stock dividends. Cash dividends shall be given priority in the distribution of earnings, but stock dividends may also be distributed. The proportion of cash dividends shall not be less than 10% of the total dividend amount.

For the distribution of dividends to shareholders in the form of cash, the Board of Directors is authorized to carry out such distribution with the approval of two-thirds or more of the attending directors and a majority of the attending directors, and to report it to the shareholders' meeting.

When a company incurs profit, the shareholders shall decide on the distribution of the statutory earnings reserve either by issuing new shares or by paying cash of up to 25% of the actual share capital.

2) Special reserve

The Company chose to apply the exemption under IFRS 1 at its initial adoption of IFRSs. Any unrealized revaluation surplus, accumulated translation adjustment, and increasing amount incurred from adopting the fair value as cost for the assets classified as investment property at the transition date. According to the Financial Supervisory Commission's Order No. 1010012865 issued on April 6, 2012, an equal amount shall be appropriated to the special surplus reserve. When using, disposing of, or reclassifying related assets, a proportionate reversal of the originally appropriated special surplus reserve may be distributed as earnings.

According to the regulations of the Financial Supervisory Commission, when the Company distributes distributable earnings, the difference between the net amount of reductions in other shareholders' equity items recorded in the current year and the balance of the special surplus reserve mentioned above shall be considered. When distributing earnings for the fiscal year 2022, the Company will allocate the current year's income and the undistributed earnings from previous periods to the special surplus reserve. When distributing earnings for the fiscal year 2023, the Company will allocate the current year's after-tax net profit, along with items other than the current year's after-tax net profit, to the undistributed earnings and the special surplus reserve from previous periods. The Company is not allowed to distribute the amounts related to reductions in other shareholders' equity from previous periods, except for the allocation to the special surplus reserve. In the event of reversals in the amounts of reductions in other shareholders' equity in the future, earnings may be distributed based on

(p) Remunerations to employees, directors and supervisors

The Company’ s Articles of Incorporation require that earnings shall first be offset against any deficit, then, a minimum of 1% will be distributed as employee remuneration, and a maximum of 2% will be allocated as remuneration to directors. Employees who are entitled to receive the abovementioned employee remuneration, in share or cash, include the employees of the Company’s subsidiaries who meet certain specific requirements.

For the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, remuneration of employees of $1,100 thousand and $2,012 thousand, respectively, and remuneration of directors of $1,500 thousand and $1,500 thousand, respectively, were estimated on the basis of the Company’s net profit before tax, excluding the remuneration of employees and directors of each period, multiplied by the percentage of remuneration of employees and directors as specified in the Company’s articles of incorporation. Such amounts were recognized as operating expenses For the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, Management is expecting that the differences, if any, between the actual distributed amounts and estimated amounts will be treated as changes in accounting estimates and will be charged to profit or loss. The number of shares to be distributed was calculated based on the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares, one day prior to Board of Directors meeting.

In the fiscal year 2022, there was a difference of $488thousand and $500 thousand between the amount of remuneration approved by the Board of Directors for employees, directors, and supervisors and the estimated amount accrued for the fiscal year 2022. This difference primarily arises from accounting estimates made by the Company and has been recognized in the income statement for the fiscal year 2023.The amount of employee compensation approved by the Board of Directors for the fiscal year 2023 is consistent with the accrual amount in the individual financial statements for the fiscal year 2023. However, there is a difference of $600 thousand between the amount approved by the Board of Directors for director and supervisor remuneration and the accrual amount in the individual financial statements for the fiscal year 2023. This difference is primarily due to accounting estimates made by the company and has been recognized in the profit or loss for the fiscal year 2024. Relevant information can be found on the Taiwan Stock Exchange's website.

(r)Financial instruments

Credit risk
(i) Credit risk exposure

The carrying amount of financial assets and contract assets represents the maximum amount exposed to credit risk.

(ii) Concentration of credit risk

The Company has a broad customer base and does not engage in significant transactions with any single customer. Additionally, its sales are geographically diversified. Therefore, there is no significant concentration of credit risk.

(iii) Receivables and debt securities

For credit risk exposure of trade receivables and notes receivable, please refer to note 6(c).

(Continued)

Other financial assets at amortized cost include other receivables. All of these financial assets are considered to have low risk, and thus, the impairment provision recognized during the period was limited to 12-month expected credit losses. The fixed deposits held by the Company are transacted with and settled by financial institutions that have investment-grade ratings or above. Therefore, they are considered to have low risk.

The loss allowances were determined as follows:

Balance at January 1, 2023 Balance at December 31, 2023 Balance at January 1, 2022 Balance at March 31, 2022	Other receivables

3. Currency risk

(i) Exposure to foreign currency risk

The Company’s significant exposure to foreign currency risk was as follows:

Financial assets Monetary items USD Non-monetary items USD Financial liabilities Monetary items USD		December 31, 2023		December 31, 2022 Foreign currency Exchange rate NTD 5,847 30.710 179,561 1,245 30.710 38,229 1,161 30.710 35,654

(ii) Sensitivity analysis

The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, and trade and other payables that are denominated in foreign currency.

A strengthening (weakening) of 0.5%of the NTD against the USD, and HKD as at 2023 and 2022 would have increased (decreased) the net profit after tax by $96 thousand and $576thousand, and the equity by $168 thousand and $153thousand. The analysis is performed on the same basis.

(iii) Foreign exchange gain and loss on monetary items

Since the Company has many kinds of functional currency, the information on foreign exchange gain (loss) on monetary items is disclosed by total amount. For the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the foreign exchange gain (loss) (including realized and unrealized portions) amounted to $2,738 thousand and $17,514 thousand, respectively.

Interest rate analysis

Please refer to the notes on liquidity risk management and interest rate exposure of the Company's financial assets and liabilities.

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the exposure to the interest rate risk of derivative and non-derivative financial instruments on the reporting date. Regarding assets with variable interest rates, the analysis is based on the assumption that the amount of assets outstanding at the reporting date was outstanding throughout the year. The rate of change is expressed as the interest rate increases or decreases by 0.5% when reporting to management internally, which also represents the Company management's assessment of the reasonably possible interest rate change.

If the interest rate had increased / decreased by 0.5% basis points, the Company’s net income would have increased / decreased by $60thousand and$120 thousand For the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, with all other variable factors remaining constant. This is mainly due to the Company’s borrowing at variable rates.

5. Other market price risk

For the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the sensitivity analyses for the changes in the securities price at the reporting date were performed using the same basis for profit or loss as illustrated below:

(ii) Valuation techniques for financial instruments measured at fair value

A financial instrument is regarded as being quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s-length basis. Whether transactions are taking place ‘regularly’ is a matter of judgment and depends on the facts and circumstances of the market for the instrument.

Quoted market prices may not be indicative of the fair value of an instrument if the activity in the market is infrequent, the market is not well-established, only small volumes are traded, or bid-ask spreads are very wide. Determining whether a market is active involves judgment.

Measurements of fair value of financial instruments without an active market are based on valuation technique or quoted price from a competitor. Fair value, measured by using valuation technique that can be extrapolated from either similar financial instruments or discounted cash flow method or other valuation techniques, including models, is calculated based on available market data at the reporting date.

(iii) Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2

There were no transfers from level 2 to level 1 For the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

(s) Financial risk management

1. Overview

The Company has exposure to the following risks from its financial instruments:

(i) Credit risk
(ii) Liquidity risk

(iii) Market risk

The following likewise discusses the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing the above mentioned risks. For more disclosures about the quantitative effects of these risks’ exposures, please refer to the respective notes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

2. Structure of risk management

The company's Financial Management Department provides services to various business units, coordinating access to domestic and international financial markets. It supervises and manages the financial risks related to the company's operations by analyzing internal risk reports according to the level and breadth of risk. Internal auditors continuously review compliance with policies and exposure limits. The company does not engage in trading financial instruments (including derivative financial instruments) for speculative purposes.

3. Credit risk

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 and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers and investments in debt securities.

(i) Accounts receivable and other receivables The company's policy is to transact only with reputable counterparties and, where necessary, to obtain collateral to mitigate the risk of financial loss due to defaults. The company transacts only with entities rated equivalent to investment grade. This information is provided by independent rating agencies. In cases where such information is not available, the company uses other publicly available financial information and transaction records to assess the creditworthiness of major customers. The company continuously monitors credit exposures and the credit ratings of counterparties. It diversifies total transaction amounts among counterparties with qualifying credit ratings and controls credit exposures through annual review and approval of counterparties' credit limits.

As the company has a broad customer base, does not significantly concentrate transactions with any single customer, and operates in diversified sales regions, the credit risk associated with accounts receivable is not significantly concentrated. To further mitigate credit risk, the company regularly assesses the financial condition of its customers but typically does not require collateral.

(ii) Investment

The credit risk exposure for the bank deposits, fixed income investments and other financial instruments are measured and monitored by the Company’s finance department. As the Company deals with the banks and other external parties with good credit standing and financial institutions, corporate organization and government agencies which are graded above investment level, management believes that the Company do not have compliance issues and no significant credit risk.

(iii) Guarantee

The company's policy dictates that financial guarantees can only be provided to wholly-

(Continued)

owned subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the company has not provided any endorsements or guarantees.

4. Liquidity risk

The company manages and maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents to support its operations and mitigate the impact of fluctuations in cash flows. Management oversees the utilization of bank financing facilities and ensures compliance with loan agreement terms.

Bank borrowings are an important source of liquidity for the company. As of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the unused portion of the short-term bank borrowing facilities amounted to $385,000 thousand and $370,000 thousand, respectively.

Market risk

Market risk is a risk that arises from changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices that affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

(i) Currency risk

The company is exposed to exchange rate risk arising from sales and purchases denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of each respective group entity. The primary currencies involved in these transactions are TWD and USD.

(ii) Interest rate risk

The company is exposed to cash flow risk due to its borrowings at floating interest rates. To manage this interest rate risk, the company maintains an appropriate portfolio of floatingrate instruments.

(t)Capital management

The company's capital management objective is to safeguard its ability to continue operations, thereby ensuring the provision of returns to shareholders and other stakeholders, while maintaining an optimal capital structure to minimize the cost of capital.

To maintain or adjust its capital structure, the company may adjust dividend payments to shareholders, reduce capital and return it to shareholders, issue new shares, or sell assets to repay liabilities.

Similar to its peers, the company manages its capital based on the debt-to-capital ratio. This ratio is calculated by dividing net debt by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total liabilities reported in the balance sheet minus cash and cash equivalents. Total capital includes all components of equity (i.e., share capital, capital surplus, retained earnings, and other equity) plus net debt.

The company's capital management policy in 2023 remained consistent with that of 2022, maintaining a debt-to-capital ratio between 8% and 7%, ensuring the ability to finance at reasonable costs. The debtto-capital ratios as of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, are as follows:

Total liabilities Less: cash and cash equivalents Net debt Total equity Adjusted equity Debt-to-equity ratio	December 31, 2023 $ 212,575 (67,998) 144,577 1,775,597 $ 1,920,174 8%	December 31, 2022
		231,659 (88,578)
		143,081 1,849,040
		1,992,121
		7%

As of December 31, 2023, the company's capital management approach remained unchanged from the previous year.
