Independent Auditors’ Review Report

To the Board of Directors of RECTRON LTD. Company

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of the RECTRON LTD. Company and its subsidiaries as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the consolidated financial statements based on our reviews.

Scope of Review

Except as explained in the Basis for Qualified Conclusion paragraph, we conducted our reviews in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" of the Republic of China. A review of the consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Basis for Qualified Conclusion

As stated in Note 4(b), the consolidated financial statements included the financial statements of certain non-significant subsidiaries, which were not reviewed by independent auditors. These financial statements reflect total assets amounting to $211,819 thousand and $219,232 thousand, constituting 8% and 11% of consolidated total assets as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, total liabilities amounting to $7,646 thousand and $12,470 thousand, constituting 1% and 4% of consolidated total liabilities as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and total comprehensive income (loss) amounting to $(4,943) thousand, $(711)thousand, $(7,684)thousand and $4,135 thousand, constituting (24)%, (2)%, (10)% and 7% of consolidated total comprehensive income (loss) for the three months and the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Qualified Conclusion

Except for the adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had the financial statements of certain consolidated subsidiaries and equity accounted investee companies described in the Basis for Qualified Conclusion paragraph above been reviewed by independent auditors, based on our reviews, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the RECTRON LTD. Company and its subsidiaries as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China

3-1

Other Matters

We did not review the financial statements of certain consolidated subsidiaries, with total assets of $57,181 thousand and $22,008 thousand, representing 2% and 1% of the related consolidated total assets as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, and net sales of $843 thousand, $936 thousand, $2,221 thousand and $3,037 thousand, representing 0%, 1%, 0% and 1% of the related consolidated total net sales for the three months and the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Those financial statements were reviewed by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our review, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for certain consolidated subsidiaries, are based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

The engagement partners on the reviews resulting in this independent auditors’ review report are Shih-Chin Chih and Hsin-Ting Huang.

Rectron Ltd. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2024 and 2023

(Expressed in Thousands of New Taiwan Dollar, except for Earnings per Share Information and Unless Otherwise Specified)

1. Company history

Rectron Ltd. (the “Company”) was established and approved by the Ministry of Economic Affairs on January 23, 1976. The registered address is No. 71, Zhongshan Road, Tucheng District, New Taipei City. The Company was originally named "Rectron Precision Electronics Industry Co., Ltd." and changed its name to "Rectron Ltd." on June 29, 2000, as resolved by the shareholders' meeting and approved by the Ministry of Economic Affairs.

The Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”)main business operations include the manufacture and sale of various rectifiers, other semiconductor components, rental and sale of real estate, trading of wines, and manufacture and sale of medical equipment.

2. Approval date and procedures of the consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements for the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023were authorized for issuance by the board of directors on November 13, 2024.

3. New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

  • (a) The impact of the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, R.O.C. which have already been adopted.

  • The Group has initially adopted the (following) new amendments, which do not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements, from January 1, 2024

  • Amendments to IAS 1 “Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current”

  • Amendments to IAS 1 “Non-current Liabilities with Covenants”

  • Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 “Supplier Finance Arrangements”

  • Amendments to IFRS 16 “Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback”

(b) The impact of IFRS issued by IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC

The following new and amended standards, which may be relevant to the Group, have been issued by the

International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), but have yet to be endorsed by the FSC:

Standards
Content of amendment
The new standard introduces three categories of income and
expenses, two income statement subtotals and one single note
on management performance measures. The three
amendments, combined with enhanced guidance on how to
disaggregate information, set the stage for better and more
consistent information for users, and will affect all the entities.

A more structured income statement: under current
standards, companies use different formats to present
their results, making it difficult for investors to compare
financial performance across companies. The new
standard promotes a more structured income statement,
introducing a newly defined ‘operating profit’ subtotal
and a requirement for all income and expenses to be
allocated between three new distinct categories based on
a company’s main business activities.

Management performance measures (MPMs): the new
standard introduces a definition for management
performance measures, and requires companies to
explain in a single note to the financial statements why
the measure provides useful information, how it is
calculated and reconcile it to an amount determined
under IFRS Accounting Standards.

Greater disaggregation of information: the new standard
includes enhanced guidance on how companies group
information in the financial statements. This includes
guidance on whether information is included in the
primary financial statements or is further disaggregated
in the notes.
The amendments set out:
1.IFRS 1 “First-time Adoption of International Financial
Reporting Standards”:
The amendments address a potential confusion arising from
an inconsistency in wording between paragraph B6 of IFRS
1 and requirements for hedge accounting in IFRS 9
Financial Instruments.
2.IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”:
The amendments address a potential confusion in IFRS 7
arising from an obsolete reference to a paragraph that was
deleted from the standard when IFRS 13 Fair Value
Measurement was issued.
3.IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”:
 Derecognition of a lease liability
The IASB’s amendment states that if a lease liability is
derecognized, then the derecognition will be accounted for
under IFRS 9, (i.e. the difference between the carrying
amount and the consideration paid is recognized in profit
or loss). However, when a lease liability is modified, the
modification will be accounted for under IFRS 16 Leases.
 Transaction price
The amendments require companies to initially measure a
trade receivable without a significant financing component
Effective date

at the amount determined by applying IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments remove the conflict between IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 over the amount at which a trade receivable is initially measured.

4.IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”:

The amendments clarify the determination of a ‘de facto agent’.

  • 5.IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”:

The amendments address a potential confusion in applying paragraph 37 of IAS 7 that arises from the use of the term ‘cost method’.

The Group is evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial position and consolidated financial

performance upon the initial adoption of the abovementioned standards or interpretations. The results thereof will be disclosed when the Group completes its evaluation.

The Group does not expect the following other new and amended standards, which have yet to be

endorsed by the FSC, to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements:

  • Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution of Assets Between an Investor and Its Associate or Joint Venture”

  • IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” and amendments to IFRS 17 “ Insurance Contracts”

  • IFRS 19 “Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures”

  • Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 “Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments”

4. Summary of significant accounting policies

  • (1) Statement of compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the preparation and guidelines of IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” which are endorsed and issued into effect by FSC, and do not include all of the information required by the Regulations and International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations and SIC Interpretations endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC (hereinafter referred to IFRS endorsed by the FSC)for a complete set of the annual consolidated financial statements.

(3) 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.

  1. It is expected to be realized, or intended to be sold or consumed, in the normal operating cycle;

  2. It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  3. It is expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  4. The asset is cash or cash equivalents (as defined in IAS 7), except when there are other restrictions that would prevent the asset 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:

  1. It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;

  2. It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  3. It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  4. As of the end of the reporting period, there is no right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

(4) Income tax

The income tax expenses have been prepared and disclosed in accordance with paragraph B12 of International Financial Reporting Standards 34, Interim Reporting.

Income tax expenses for the period are best estimated by multiplying pre-tax income for the interim reporting period using the effective annual tax rate as forecasted by the management. This should be recognized fully as tax expense for the current period (and allocated to current and deferred taxes

(Continued)

12

based on its proportionate size).

For a change in tax rate that is substantively enacted in an interim period, the effect of the change should immediately be recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.

Temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases shall be measured based on the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the time of the asset or liability is recovered or settled, and be recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive income as tax expense.

(5) Employee benefits

The pension cost in the interim period was calculated and disclosed on a year-to-date basis by using the actuarially determined pension cost rate at the end of the prior fiscal year.

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

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with the Regulations and IFRSs (in accordance with IAS 34“Interim Financial Reporting” and endorsed by the FSC) 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.

Except for the following, the preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements, estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis which are in conformity with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. For related information, please refer to note 5of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

6. Explanation of significant accounts

Except for the following disclosures, there were no material differences in the disclosures of significant accounts between the interim consolidated financial statements for the current period and the 2023 consolidated financial statements. Please refer to note6 to the 2023 annual consolidated financial statements.

The Group applies the simplified approach to provide for its expected credit losses, i.e. the use of lifetime expected loss provision for all receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due, as well as incorporated forward looking information, including macroeconomic and relevant industry information. The loss allowance provision were determined as follows:

(l)Capital and other equity

Except for the following disclosure, there was no significant change in capital and other equity for the periods from January 1 to September 30, 2024 and 2023. For the related information, please refer to note 6(l) to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

  1. Retained earnings

If the Company has surplus in the annual final accounts, it shall pay taxes and donations in accordance with the law, offset cumulative losses, and then appropriate 10% as statutory surplus reserve. 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.

  • (i) Legal reserve

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.

(ii) 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 2023, 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 2024, 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 the reversed portion. As of September 30, 2024, December 31, 2023, and September 30, 2023, the balance of the special surplus reserve is $87,143 thousand, $60,074 thousand, and $60,074 thousand, respectively.

(iii) Earnings distribution

The amounts of cash dividends and share dividends for the 2023 and 2022 earnings distribution had been approved, the board meeting held on March 15, 2024 and March 24, 2023; while the earnings distribution for 2023 and 2022 had been approved during the shareholders’ meeting on June 26, 2024 and June 16, 2023 as follows:

(o) 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.

(Continued)

27

For the three months and the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, remuneration of employees of $190 thousand, $358 thousand, $840 thousand, and $1,019 thousand, respectively, and remuneration of directors of $150 thousand, $500 thousand, $900 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 Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, 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.

The amount of employee compensation for the year 2023 as resolved by the Board of Directors is consistent with the amount estimated in the 2023 individual financial statements. However, the amount of compensation for directors and supervisors as resolved by the Board of Directors differs by $600 thousand from the amount estimated in the 2023 individual financial statements. This discrepancy is mainly due to differences in the company's accounting estimates and will be recognized in the 2024 profit and loss. In the fiscal year 2022, there was a difference of $488 thousand 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.

(q) Financial instruments

1. 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 Group 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). 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 group 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:

The Group does not expect the cash flows included in the maturity analysis to occur significantly earlier or at significantly different amounts.

  1. Market risk

  2. (i) Currency risk

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

Financial assets
Monetary items
USD : NTD
USD : CNY
Non-monetary items
USD
Financial liabilities
Monetary items
USD : NTD
September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023

The Group’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 CNY as at Nine Months of 2023 and 2021 would have increased (decreased) the net profit after tax by

(Continued)

30

$4,060 thousand and $3,088 thousand, and the equity by $162 thousand and $162 thousand. The analysis is performed on the same basis.

Since the Group has many kinds of functional currency, the information on foreign exchange gain (loss) on monetary items is disclosed by total amount. For the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the foreign exchange gain (loss) (including realized and unrealized portions) amounted to $156 thousand and $24,498 thousand, respectively.

(ii) Interest rate analysis

Please refer to the notes on liquidity risk management and interest rate exposure of the Group'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 Group management's assessment of the reasonably possible interest rate change.

If the interest rate had increased / decreased by 0.5% basis points, the Group’s net income would have increased / decreased by $9 thousand and $45 thousand for the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, with all other variable factors remaining constant. This is mainly due to the Group’s borrowing at variable rates.

(iii) Other market price risk

For the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, 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 Nine Months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
