For the convenience of readers and for information purpose only, the auditors’ report and the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
PWCR18000297
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Realtek Semiconductor Corporation
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Realtek Semiconductor Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other independent accountants (please refer to the Other matters section of our report), the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (“ROC GAAS”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Independent Accountant’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. Based on our audits and the report of the other independent accountants, we believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Evaluation of inventories
Description
Refer to Note 4(14) of the consolidated financial statements for inventory evaluation policies, Note 5(2) for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions of inventory evaluation and Note 6(6) for the details of inventories.
The Group is primarily engaged in researching, developing, manufacturing, selling of various integrated circuits and related application software. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Due to the balances of inventories are significant to the financial statements and the rapid technological changes in the industry, there is a higher risk of decline in market value and obsolescence of inventories. Thus, we considered the evaluation of inventories as one of the key audit matters.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following key audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:
-
Obtained an understanding of accounting policies on the provision of allowance for inventory valuation losses and assessed the reasonableness and the consistency with comparative period(s).
-
Validated the accuracy of inventory aging report, as well as sampled and confirmed the consistency of quantities and amounts with detailed inventory listing, verified dates of movements with supporting documents and ensured the proper categorization of inventory aging report.
-
Evaluated and confirmed the reasonableness of net realizable value for inventories through validating respective supporting documents.
Audit of cash in banks
Description
Refer to Note 4(6) of the consolidated financial statements for accounting policies and Note 6(1) for the details of cash and cash equivalents.
The amount of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents is significant to the consolidated financial
~2~
statements, and the nature and usage of those cash and cash equivalents varies. The cash in banks are deposited with various domestic and foreign financial institutions and have high inherent risk. It is also subject to judgement as to whether certain deposits fulfill the criteria of short-term, highly liquid investments which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Thus, audit of cash in bank was considered as one of the key audit matters.
How our audit addressed the matter
We performed the following key audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:
-
Obtained detailed listings of cash in banks. Sent confirmation letters to all financial institutions and reviewed special terms and agreements in order to ensure the existence and rights and obligations of cash in banks.
-
Obtained an understanding of procedures for preparation and review of bank reconciliations, including validating unusual reconciling items.
-
Performed physical count of petty cash and time deposits, including validating whether time deposits fulfill the criteria of short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
-
Sampled and validated significant cash transactions from bank accounts frequently used, including obtaining an understanding of the purposes of those bank accounts and vouching related supporting documents.
Other matter – Reference to audits of other independent accountants
We did not audit the financial statements of certain consolidated subsidiaries and investments accounted for using the equity method. Those financial statements were audited by other independent accountants, whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the financial statements and the information on the consolidated subsidiaries and investments accounted for using the equity method were based solely on the reports of other independent accountants. Total assets of those consolidated subsidiaries amounted to NT$6,207,867 thousand and NT$6,689,960 thousand, constituting 10.66% and 12.79% of the consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and total operating revenues of NT$0 thousand and NT$0 thousand, both constituting 0% of the consolidated total operating revenues for the years then ended. Furthermore, according to the reports of other independent accountants, comprehensive losses of
~3~
those investments accounted for under the equity method amounted to NT$41,330 thousand and NT$41,729 thousand, respectively, and balances of these investments as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 amounted to NT$261,628 thousand and NT$281,002 thousand, respectively.
Other matter – Parent company only financial reports
We have audited and expressed an unqualified opinion on the parent company only financial statements of Realtek Semiconductor Corporation as at and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the consolidated financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance, including the Audit Committee, are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Independent accountant’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a 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 ROC GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it
~4~
exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
~5~
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our 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 Company was based in Hsinchu Science-Based Industrial Park since October 28, 1989. The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred herein as the “Group”) are engaged in the research, development, design, testing, and sales of ICs and application softwares for these products.
2. THE DATE OF AUTHORISATION FOR ISSUANCE OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND PROCEDURES FOR AUTHORISATION
These consolidated financial statements were authorised for issuance by the Board of Directors on March 21, 2019.
3. APPLICATION OF NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS
- (1) Effect of the adoption of new issuances of or amendments to International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission (“FSC”)
New standards, interpretations and amendments endorsed by the FSC effective from 2018 are as follows:
| follows: | |
|---|---|
| New Standards,Interpretations and Amendments | Effective date by International Accounting Standards Board |
| Amendments to IFRS 2, ‘Classification and measurement of share-based payment transactions’ Amendments to IFRS 4, ‘Applying IFRS 9, Financial instruments with IFRS 4, Insurance contracts’ IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’ IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ Amendments to IFRS 15, ‘Clarifications to IFRS 15, Revenue from contracts with customers’ Amendments to IAS 7, ‘Disclosure initiative’ Amendments to IAS 12, ‘Recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised Amendments to IAS 40, ‘Transfers of investment property’ IFRIC 22, ‘Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration’ |

January 1, 2018 January 1, 2017 January 1, 2018 |
Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group’s financial condition and financial performance based on the Group’s assessment. A. IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’
-
(a) Classification of debt instruments is driven by the entity’s business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets, which would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or financial asset at amortised cost. Equity instruments would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, unless an entity makes an irrevocable election at inception to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument that is not held for trading in other comprehensive income.
-
(b) The impairment losses of debt instruments are assessed using an ‘expected credit loss’ approach. An entity assesses at each balance sheet date whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition to recognise 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses (interest revenue would be calculated on the gross carrying amount of �������������������������������������������������������� instrument has objective evidence of impairment, interest revenue after the impairment would be calculated on the book value of net carrying amount (i.e. net of credit allowance). The Group shall always measure the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses for trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component.
-
(c) The Group has elected not to restate prior period financial statements using the modified retrospective approach under IFRS 9. For details of the significant effect as at January 1, 2018, please refer to Note 12(4)B.
-
B. IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’
-
(a) IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ replaces IAS 11, ‘Construction contracts’, IAS 18, ‘Revenue’ and relevant interpretations. According to IFRS 15, revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. A customer obtains control of goods or services when a customer has the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset.
The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of
~15~
promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity recognises revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps: Step 1: Identify contracts with customer.
Step 2: Identify separate performance obligations in the contract(s).
Step 3: Determine the transaction price.
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price.
Step 5: Recognise revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. Further, IFRS 15 includes a set of comprehensive disclosure requirements that requires an entity to disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
- (b) The Group has elected not to restate prior period financial statements and recognised the cumulative effect of initial application as retained earnings at January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach under IFRS 15. The Group applied retrospectively IFRS 15 only to incomplete contracts as of January 1, 2018, by adopting an optional transition expedient. The significant effects of adopting the modified transition as of January 1, 2018 are summarised below:

- i. Presentation of assets and liabilities in relation to contracts with customers
In line with IFRS 15 requirements, the Group changed the presentation of certain accounts in the balance sheet as follows:
- (i) Under IFRS 15, liabilities in relation to expected volume discounts and refunds to customers are recognised as refund liabilities (shown as other current liabilities), but were previously presented as accounts receivable - allowance for sales returns and discounts in the balance sheet. As of January 1, 2018, the balance amounted to $2,763,852.
~16~
(ii) Under IFRS 15, liabilities in relation to sales contracts are recognised as contract liabilities, but were previously presented as advance sales receipts in the balance sheet. As of January 1, 2018, the balance amounted to $103,169.
- ii. Please refer to Note 12(5) for other disclosures in relation to the first application of IFRS
-
C. Amendments to IAS 7, ‘Disclosure initiative’
This amendment requires that an entity shall provide more disclosures related to changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes.
The Group has provided additional disclosure to explain the changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, as described in Note 6(29).
(2) Effect of new issuances of or amendments to IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC but not yet adopted by the Group
New standards, interpretations and amendments endorsed by the FSC effective from 2019 are as follows:
| follows: | |
|---|---|
| New Standards,Interpretations and Amendments | Effective date by International Accounting Standards Board |
| Amendments to IFRS 9, ‘Prepayment features with negative compensation’ IFRS 16, ‘Leases’ Amendments to IAS 19, ‘Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement’ Amendments to IAS 28, ‘Long-term interests in associates and joint ventures’ IFRIC 23, ‘Uncertainty over income tax treatments’ Annual improvements to IFRSs 2015-2017 cycle |
January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2019 |
Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group’s financial condition and financial performance based on the Group’s assessment. The quantitative impact will be disclosed when the assessment is complete. IFRS 16, ‘Leases’
IFRS 16, ‘Leases’, replaces IAS 17, ‘Leases’ and related interpretations and SICs. The standard requires lessees to recognise a 'right-of-use asset' and a lease liability (except for those leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets). The accounting stays the same for lessors, which is to classify their leases as either finance leases or operating leases and account for those two types of leases differently. IFRS 16 only requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors.
The Group expects to recognise the lease contract of lessees in line with IFRS 16. However, the Group does not intend to restate the financial statements of prior period (referred herein as the “modified retrospective approach”). On January 1, 2019, it is expected that ‘right-of-use asset’ and
~17~
lease liability will be increased by $1,048,256 and $1,048,256, respectively.
(3) IFRSs issued by IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC
New standards, interpretations and amendments issued by IASB but not yet included in the IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC are as follows:
| endorsed by the FSC are as follows: | |
|---|---|
| New Standards,Interpretations and Amendments | Effective date by International Accounting Standards Board |
| Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8, ‘Disclosure Initiative-Definition of Material’ Amendments to IFRS 3, ‘Definition of a business’ 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’ |
January 1, 2020 January 1, 2020 To be determined by International Accounting Standards Board January 1, 2021 |
The above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group’s financial condition and financial performance based on the Group’s assessment.
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.
(1) Compliance statement
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers”, International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the “IFRSs”)
(2) Basis of preparation
-
A. Except for the following items, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:
-
(a) Financial assets (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.
-
(b) Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through other comprehensive income/Availablefor-sale financial assets measured at fair value.
-
(c) Defined benefit liabilities recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.
-
B. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.
~18~
-
C. In adopting IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 effective January 1, 2018, the Group has elected to apply modified retrospective approach whereby the cumulative impact of the adoption was recognised as retained earnings or other equity as of January 1, 2018 and the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 were not restated. The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 were prepared in compliance with International Accounting Standard 39 (�IAS 39�), International Accounting Standard 18 (‘IAS 18’) and related financial reporting interpretations. Please refer to Notes 12(4) and (5) for details of significant accounting policies and details of significant accounts.
-
(3) Basis of consolidation
-
A. Basis for preparation of consolidated financial statements:
-
(a) All subsidiaries are included in the Group’s consolidated financial statements. Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Consolidation of subsidiaries begins from the date the Group obtains control of the subsidiaries and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiaries.
-
(b) Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between companies within the Group are eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
-
(c) Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the noncontrolling interests having a deficit balance.
-
(d) Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent losing control of the subsidiary (transactions with non-controlling interests) are accounted for as equity transactions, i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity.
-
(e) When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value. That fair value is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset or the cost on initial recognition of the associate or joint venture. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary are reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required if the related assets or liabilities were disposed of. That is, when the Group loses control of a subsidiary, all gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary should be reclassified from equity to profit or loss, if such gains or losses would be reclassified to profit or loss when the related assets or liabilities are disposed of.

(4) Foreign currency translation
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in New Taiwan dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.
-
A. Foreign currency transactions and balances
-
(a) Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
-
(b) Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the period end are retranslated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising upon re-translation at the balance sheet date are recognised in profit or loss.
~22~
-
(c) Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through profit or loss are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet �������������������������������������������������������������������������-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through other comprehensive income are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the b������������������������� translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. However, nonmonetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are not measured at fair value are translated using the historical exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
-
(d) All other foreign exchange gains and losses based on the nature of those transactions are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘other gains and losses’.
-
B. Translation of foreign operations
-
(a) The operating results and financial position of all the group entities, associates and joint arrangements that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
-
i. Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing exchange ���������������������������������������
-
ii. Income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates of that period�����
-
iii. All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
-
-
(b).When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is an associate, exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale. In addition, even when the Group retains partial interest in the former foreign associate after losing significant influence over the former foreign associate, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in these foreign operations.
-
(c) Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing exchange rates at the balance sheet date.
(5) Classification of current and non-current items
-
A. ���������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������� classified as non-current assets:
-
(a) Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realised, or are intended to be ���������������������������������������������������
-
(b) ����������������������������������������
-
(c) Assets that are expected to be realised within twelve months from the balance sheet dat��
-
(d) Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents and those that are to be exchanged or used to settle liabilities more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.
~23~
-
B. Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria ������������������������������������������������������ are classified as non-current liabilities:
-
(a) Liabilities that are expected to be settled ����������������������������������
-
(b) ���������������������������������������������������
-
(c) Liabilities that are to be settled �������������������������������������������������
-
(d) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
(6) Cash equivalents
Cash equivalents refer to short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Time deposits that meet the definition above and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments in operations are classified as cash equivalents.
(7) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Effective 2018
-
A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets that are not measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. Financial assets at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income are designated as at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition when they eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency.
-
B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
C. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets at fair value and recognises the transaction costs in profit or loss. The Group subsequently measures the financial assets at fair value, and recognises the gain or loss in profit or loss.
-
D. The Group recognises the dividend income when the right to receive payment is established, future economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Group and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
(8) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
Effective 2018
-
A. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income comprise equity securities which are not held for trading, and for which the Group has made an irrevocable election at initial recognition to recognise changes in fair value in other comprehensive income and debt instruments which meet all of the following criteria:
-
(a) The objective of the Group’s business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash ���������������������������������������
-
(b) The assets’ contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.
~24~
-
B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
C. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets at fair value plus transaction costs. The Group subsequently measures the financial assets at fair value:
-
The changes in fair value of equity investments that were recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to retained earnings and are not reclassified to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends are recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established, future economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Group and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
(9) Financial assets at amortised cost
Effective 2018
-
A. Financial assets at amortised cost are those that meet all of the following criteria:
-
(a) The objective of the Group’s business model is achieved by collecting contractual cash flows.
-
(b) The assets’ contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.
-
B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at amortised cost are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
C. At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets at fair value plus transaction costs. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest method. A gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired.
-
D. The Group’s time deposits which do not fall under cash equivalents are those with a short maturity period and are measured at initial investment amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
-
(10) Accounts receivable
-
A. Accounts receivable entitle the Group a legal right to receive consideration in exchange for transferred goods or rendered services.
-
B. The short-term accounts and notes receivable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(11) Impairment of financial assets
For debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets at amortised cost, at each reporting date, the Group recognises the impairment provision for 12 months expected credit losses if there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition or recognizes the impairment provision for the lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) if such credit risk has increased since initial recognition after taking into consideration all reasonable and verifiable information that includes forecasts. On the other hand, for accounts receivable that do not contain a significant financing component, the Group recognises the impairment provision for lifetime ECLs.
~25~
(12) Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset expire.
(13) Operating leases (lessor)
Lease income from an operating lease (net of any incentives given to the lessee) is recognised in profit or loss and collects the rental over the lease term.
(14) Inventories
- Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (allocated based on normal operating capacity). It excludes borrowing costs. The item by item approach is used in applying the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and applicable variable selling expenses.
(15) Investments accounted for using equity method / associates
-
A. Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. In general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly or indirectly 20 percent or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognised at cost.
-
B. The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
-
C. When changes in an associate’s equity do not arise from profit or loss or other comprehensive income of the associate and such changes do not affect the Group’s ownership percentage of the associate, the Group recognises change in ownership interests in the associate in ‘capital surplus’ in proportion to its ownership.
-
D. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
-
E. In the case that an associate issues new shares and the Group does not subscribe or acquire new shares proportionately, which results in a change in the Group’s ownership percentage of the associate but maintains significant influence on the associate, then ‘capital surplus’ and ‘investments accounted for under the equity method’ shall be adjusted for the increase or
~26~
decrease of its share of equity interest. If the above condition causes a decrease in the Group’s ownership percentage of the associate, in addition to the above adjustment, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of.
-
F. Upon loss of significant influence over an associate, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former associate at its fair value. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.
-
G. When the Group disposes its investment in an associate and loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate, are reclassified to profit or loss, on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of. If it retains significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately in accordance with the aforementioned approach.
-
(16) Property, plant and equipment
-
A. Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Borrowing costs incurred during the construction period are capitalised.
-
B. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
-
C. Other property, plant and equipment apply cost model and are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item must be depreciated separately. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year-end. If expectations for the assets’ residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets’ future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, from the date of the change. The estimated useful lives of the fixed assets are as follows: buildings - 10~55 years and other fixed assets - 3~5 years.
(17) Operating leases (lessee)
Payments made under an operating lease (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognised in profit or loss and pay the rental over the lease term.
~27~
(18) Investment property
An investment property is stated initially at its cost and measured subsequently using the cost model. Except for land, investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 20 years.
(19) Intangible assets
-
A. Goodwill arises in a business combination accounted for by applying the acquisition method.
-
B. Other intangible assets
-
Separately acquired intangible assets with a finite useful life are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognised at fair value at acquisition date. The amortisation amounts of separately and consolidated acquired intangible assets were amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 2-5 years.
(20) Impairment of non-financial assets
-
A. The Group assesses at each balance sheet date the recoverable amounts of those assets where there is an indication that they are impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. When the circumstances or reasons for recognizing impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer exist or diminish, the impairment loss is reversed. The increased carrying amount due to reversal should not be more than what the depreciated or amortised historical cost would have been if the impairment had not been recognised.
-
B. The recoverable amounts of goodwill is evaluated periodically. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment loss of goodwill previously recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed in the following years.
(21) Borrowings
Borrowings comprise long-term and short-term bank borrowings. Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred.
(22) Notes and accounts payable
-
A. Accounts payable are liabilities for purchases of raw materials, goods or services and notes payable are those resulting from operating and non-operating activities.
-
B. The short-term notes and accounts payable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
(23) Derecognition of financial liabilities
- A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
~28~
(24) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date, which is discounted using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation.
(25) Employee benefits
- A. Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in respect of service rendered by employees in a period and should be recognised as expense in that period when the employees render service.
-
B. Pensions
-
(a) Defined contribution plans
For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognised as pension expense when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.
-
(b) Defined benefit plans
-
i. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Company in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The net defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount is determined by using interest rates of highquality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension �����������������������������������������������-quality corporate bonds, the Company uses interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) instead.
-
ii. Remeasurements arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings.
-
-
C. Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration
-
Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognised as expense and liability, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates. If employee compensation is distributed by shares, the Group calculates the number of shares based on the
~29~
closing price at the previous day of the Board meeting resolution.
(26) Income tax
-
A. The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or items recognised directly in equity, in which cases the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity.
-
B. The current income tax expense is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in accordance with applicable tax regulations. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. An additional tax is levied on the unappropriated retained earnings and is recorded as income tax expense in the year the stockholders resolve to retain the earnings.
-
C. Deferred tax is recognised, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated balance sheet. However, the deferred tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit nor loss. Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.
-
D. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. At each balance sheet date, unrecognised and recognised deferred tax assets are reassessed.
-
E. A deferred tax asset shall be recognised for the carryforward of unused tax credits resulting from research and development expenditures to the extent that it is possible that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilised.
-
F. If a change in tax rate is enacted or substantively enacted, the Group recognises the effect of the change immediately in the interim period in which the change occurs. The effect of the change on items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity while the effect of the change on items recognised in profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss.
-
(27) Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
~30~
(28) Dividends
Dividends are recorded in the Company’s financial statements in the period in which they are resolved by the Company’s shareholders. ��������������������������������������������stock dividends are recorded as stock dividends to be distributed and are reclassified to ordinary shares on the effective date of new shares issuance.
(29) Revenue recognition
-
A. Sales of goods
-
(a) The Group manufactures and sells various integrated circuit related products. Sales are recognised when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customers, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer’s acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the wholesaler, and either the wholesaler has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, or the Group has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
-
(b) Revenue from these sales is recognised based on the price specified in the contract. A refund liability is recognised for expected sales discounts and allowances payable to customers in relation to sales made until the end of the reporting period. As the time interval between the transfer of committed goods or service and the payment of customer does not exceed one year, the Group does not adjust the transaction price to reflect the time value of money.
-
(c) A receivable is recognised when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.
-
B. Services revenue
Revenue from design, royalty and technical services is recognised after completing the services in which the services are rendered.
(30) Operating segments
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision-Maker. The Group’s Chief Operating Decision-Maker is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies and make critical assumptions and estimates concerning future events. Assumptions and estimates may differ from the actual results and are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors. Such assumptions and estimates have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets �����������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������
~31~
(1) Critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies
None.
(2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
Evaluation of inventories
As inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, the Group must determine the net realisable value of inventories on balance sheet date using judgements and estimates. Due to the rapid technology innovation, the Group evaluates the amounts of normal inventory consumption, obsolete inventories or inventories without market selling value on balance sheet date, and writes down the cost of inventories to the net realisable value. Such an evaluation of inventories is
principally based on the demand for the products within the specified period in the future. Therefore, there might be material changes to the evaluation.
As of December 31, 2018, the carrying amount of inventories was $5,862,005.

(14) Pension
-
A. (a) The Company and its domestic subsidiaries have a defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Labor Standards Law, covering all regular employees’ service years prior to the enforcement of the Labor Pension Act on July 1, 2005 and service years thereafter of employees who chose to continue to be subject to the pension mechanism under the Law. Under the defined benefit pension plan, two units are accrued for each year of service for the first 15 years and one unit for each additional year thereafter, subject to a maximum of 45 units. Pension benefits are based on the number of units accrued and the average monthly salaries and wages of the last 6 months prior to retirement. The Company and its domestic subsidiaries contribute monthly an amount equal to 2% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the retirement fund deposited with Bank of Taiwan, the trustee, under the name of the independent retirement fund committee. Also, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries would assess the balance in the aforementioned labor pension reserve account by December 31, every year. If the account balance is insufficient to pay the pension calculated by the aforementioned method to the employees expected to qualify for retirement in the following year, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries will make contributions for the deficit by next March.

(d) The Bank of Taiwan was commissioned to manage the Fund of the Company’s and domestic subsidiaries’ defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Fund’s annual investment and utilisation plan and the “Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilisation of the Labor Retirement Fund” (Article 6: The scope of utilisation for the Fund includes deposit in domestic or foreign financial institutions, investment in domestic or foreign listed, over-the-counter, or private placement equity securities, investment in domestic or foreign real estate securitization products, etc.). With regard to the utilisation of the Fund, its minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall be no less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from two-year time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks.

(e) The principal actuarial assumptions used were as follows:
| Discount rate Future salary increases |

|---|---|---|
| 2018 1.125% 5.25% |
2017 | |
| 1.25% | ||
| 5.25% |
Future mortality rate was estimated based on the 5th Taiwan Standard Ordinary Experience Mortality Table for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. Because the main actuarial assumption changed, the present value of defined benefit obligation is affected. The analysis was as follows:
~41~

The sensitivity analysis above is based on one assumption which changed while the other conditions remain unchanged. In practice, more than one assumption may change all at once. The method of analysing sensitivity and the method of calculating net pension liability in the balance sheet are the same.
-
(f) Expected contributions to the defined benefit pension plans of the Group for the year ending December 31, 2019 amount to $6,000.
-
(g) As of December 31, 2018, the weighted average duration of the retirement plan is 14 years. The analysis of timing of the future pension payment was as follows:
| Within 1 year 2~5 years 5~10 years Over 10 years |

(a) Effective July 1, 2005, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries have established a defined contribution pension plan (the “New Plan”) under the Labor Pension Act (the “Act”), covering all regular employees with R.O.C. nationality. Under the New Plan, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries contribute monthly an amount based on 6% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the employees’ individual pension accounts at the Bureau of Labor Insurance. The benefits accrued are paid monthly or in lump sum upon termination of employment.
-

(27) Earnings per share
- Effective January 1, 2008, as employees’ compensation could be distributed in the form of stock, the diluted EPS computation shall include those estimated shares that would be increased from employees’ stock compensation issuance in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting year, which take into account the dilutive effects of stock bonus on potential common shares. Whereas, basic EPS shall be calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting year that include the shares of employees’ stock compensation for the appropriation of prior year earnings, which have already been resolved at the stockholders’ meeting held in the reporting year. Since capitalisation of employees’ compensation no longer belongs to distribution of stock dividends, the calculation of basic EPS and diluted EPS for all periods presented shall not be adjusted retroactively.

B. Financial risk management policies
-
(a) The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial position and financial performance.
-
(b) Risk management is carried out by a treasury department (Group treasury) under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Group treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the Group’s operating units.
-
C. Significant financial risks and degrees of financial risks
-
(a) Market risk
Foreign exchange risk
-
i. The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the USD and RMB. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognised assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations.
-
ii. Management has set up a policy to require the Group to manage its foreign exchange risk against its functional currency. The Group is required to hedge its entire foreign exchange risk exposure with the Group treasury.
-
iii. The Group’s businesses involve some functional currency operations (the Company’s and certain subsidiaries’ ��������������������������������certain subsidiaries’ functional currency: USD and RMB). The information on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies whose values would be materially affected by the exchange rate fluctuations is as follows:

Price risk
-
i. The Group’s equity securities, which are exposed to price risk, are the held financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income and available-for-sale financial assets.
-
ii. The Group’s investments in equity securities comprise domestic listed and unlisted stocks. The prices of equity securities would change due to the change of the future value of investee companies. If the prices of these equity securities had increased/decreased by 10% with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 would have decreased/increased by ($1,924) and $1,814, respectively, as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Other components of equity would have decreased/increased by ($16,368) and $10,931, respectively, as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as available-for-sale equity investment and equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.
Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
The Group has no material interest rate risk.
- (b) Credit risk
Effective 2018
-
i. Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. The main factor is that counterparties could not repay in full the accounts receivable based on the agreed terms, and the contract cash flows of financial assets at amortised cost, at fair value through profit or loss and at fair value through other comprehensive income.
-
ii. The Group manages their credit risk taking into consideration the entire group’s concern. According to the Group’s credit policy, each local entity in the Group is responsible for managing and analysing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.
-
iii. The Group adopts the assumption under IFRS 9, that is, the default occurs when the contract payments are past due over 90 days.
-
iv. The Group adopts the following assumption under IFRS 9 to assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition: If the contract payments were past due over 30 days based on the terms, there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition.
~62~
-
v. The following indicators are used to determine whether the credit impairment of debt instruments has occurred:
-
(i) It becomes probable that the issuer will enter bankruptcy or other financial ���������������������������������������������������
-
(ii) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial �������������
-
(iii) Default or delinquency in interest o�����������������������
-
(iv) Adverse changes in national or regional economic conditions that are expected to cause a default.
-
vi. The Group classifies customers’ accounts receivable in accordance with customer types. The Group applies the modified approach using provision matrix to estimate expected credit loss under the provision matrix basis.
-
vii. The Group wrote-off the financial assets, which cannot be reasonably expected to be recovered, after initiating recourse procedures. However, the Group will continue executing the recourse procedures to secure their rights.
-
viii. The Group used the forecastability of semiconductor industry research report to adjust historical and timely information to assess the default possibility of accounts receivable. On December 31, 2018, the provision matrix is as follows:
| At December 31, 2018 Expected loss rate Total book value Loss allowance |
Not past due | 1~90 days past due |
180 days past due |

(3) Fair value information
-
A. The different levels that the inputs to valuation techniques are used to measure fair value of financial and non-financial instruments have been defined as follows:
-
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. A market is regarded as active where a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of the Group’s investment in listed stocks and beneficiary certificates is included in Level 1.
-
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The fair value of the Group’s investment is included in Level 2.
-
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value of the Group’s investment in equity investment without active market is included in Level 3.
-
B. Fair value information of investment property at cost is provided in Note 6(9).
-
C. The related information of financial and non-financial instruments measured at fair value by level on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the assets and liabilities is as follows: (a) The related information of nature of the assets is as follows:

(b) The methods and assumptions the Group used to measure fair value are as follows:
-
i. The instruments the Group used market quoted prices as their fair values (that is, Level
-
1) are listed below by characteristics:
| Market quoted price |
Listed shares |
Closed- end fund |

Government bond |
Corporate bond |
Convertible (exchangeable) bond |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Closing price |
Closing price |
Net asset value |
Translation price |
Weighted average quoted price |
Closing price |
-
ii. Except for financial instruments with active markets, the fair value of other financial instruments is measured by using valuation techniques or by reference to counterparty quotes. The fair value of financial instruments measured by using valuation techniques can be referred to current fair value of instruments with similar terms and characteristics in substance, discounted cash flow method or other valuation methods, including calculated by applying model using market information available at the consolidated balance sheet date.
-
iii. The output of valuation model is an estimated value and the valuation technique may not be able to capture all relevant factors of the Group’s financial and non-financial instruments. Therefore, the estimated value derived using valuation model is adjusted accordingly with additional inputs.

F. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, there was no transfer into or out from Level 3.
-
G. The treasury department is in charge of valuation procedures for fair value measurements being categorised within Level 3, which is to verify independent fair value of financial instruments. Such assessment is to ensure the valuation results are reasonable by applying independent information to make results close to current market conditions, confirming the resource of information is independent, reliable and in line with other resources and represented as the exercisable price, updating inputs used to the valuation model and making any other necessary adjustments to the fair value.

(4) Effects on initial application of IFRS 9 and information on application of IAS 39 in 2017
-
A. Summary of significant accounting policies adopted in 2017 :
-
(a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
-
i. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading or financial assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition. Financial assets are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorized as financial assets held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Financial assets that meet one of the following criteria are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition: �����������������������������������
-
������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������
-
(iii) They are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.
-
ii. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
iii. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value. Related transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. These financial assets are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognised in profit or loss.
-
-
(b) Available-for-sale financial assets
-
i. Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories.
-
ii. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, available-for-sale financial assets are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
iii. Available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs. These financial assets are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income. Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured or derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity instruments are presented in ‘financial assets measured at cost’.
-
-
(c) Held-to-maturity financial assets
- i. Held-to-maturity financial assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity date that the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity other than those that meet the definition of loans and receivables and those that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss or as available-for-sale on initial recognition.
~69~
-
ii. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, held-to-maturity financial assets are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
iii. Held-to-maturity financial assets are initially recognised at fair value on the trade date plus transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Amortisation of a premium or a discount on such assets is recognised in profit or loss.
-
(d) Loans and receivables
-
i. Accounts receivable
- Accounts receivable are loans and receivables originated by the entity. They are created by the entity by selling goods or providing services to customers in the ordinary course of business. Accounts receivable are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment.
However, short-term accounts receivable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
-
ii. Investments in debt instrument without active market
-
(i) Investments in debt instrument without active market are loans and receivables not originated by the entity. They are bond investments with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, and also meet all of the following conditions:
-
a. Not designated on initial recognition as at fair value throu������������������
-
b. Not designated on initial recognition as available-for-�����
-
c. Not for which the holder may not recover substantially all of its initial investment, other than because of credit deterioration.
-
-
(ii) On a regular way purchase or sale basis, investments in debt instrument without active market are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.
-
(iii) Investments in debt instruments without active market are initially recognised at fair value on the trade date plus transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Amortisation of a premium or a discount on such assets is recognised in profit or loss.
-
(iv) Investments in debt instruments without active market held by the Group are those time deposits with a short maturity period but do not qualify as cash equivalents, and they are measured at initial investment amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.
-
(e) Impairment of financial assets
-
i. The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event�) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group
~70~
of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
-
ii. The criteria that the Group uses to determine whether there is objective evidence of an impairment loss is as follows:
-
�������������������������������������������������������������
-
���������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������� (iii) The Group, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, �����������������������������������������������������������������������������
-
(iv) It becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial ���������������
-
(v) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial �������������
-
(vi) Observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial asset in the group, including adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the group or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the ������
-
(vii) Information about significant changes with an adverse effect that have taken place in the technology, market, economic or legal environment in which the issuer operates, and indicates that the cost of the investment in the equity instrument may not be recover���
-
(viii) A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.
-
iii. When the Group assesses that there has been objective evidence of impairment and an impairment loss has occurred, accounting for impairment is made as follows according to the category of financial assets:
-
(i) Financial assets measured at amortised cost
-
The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate, and is recognised in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost that would have been at the date of reversal had the impairment loss not been recognised previously. Impairment loss is recognised and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.
~71~
- (ii) Financial assets measured at cost
The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at current market return rate of similar financial asset, and is recognised in profit or loss. Impairment loss recognised for this category shall not be reversed subsequently. Impairment loss is recognised by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.
- (iii) Available-for-sale financial assets
The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s acquisition cost (less any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss, and is reclassified from ‘other comprehensive income’ to ‘profit or loss’. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of an investment in a debt instrument increases, and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, then such impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss of an investment in an equity instrument recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss is recognised and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.
- B. The reconciliations of carrying amount of financial assets transferred from December 31, 2017, IAS 39, to January 1, IFRS 9, were as follows:

(b) Under IAS 39, because the equity instruments, which were classified as available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets at cost, amounting to $620,870 and $811,496, respectively, were not held for the purpose of trading, they were reclassified as "financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (equity instruments)" amounting to $1,758,623. Accordingly, retained earnings and other equity interest increased in the amounts of $186,184 and $140,073 on initial application of IFRS 9, respectively.
-
(c) Under IAS 39, the equity instruments, which were classified as available-for-sale financial assets, amounting to $96,875, was reclassified as "financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (equity instruments)" amounting to $96,875.
