Independent Auditors' Report
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders:
Audit opinion
SCIENTECH CORPORATION's Parent Company Only Balance Sheets as of 31 December 2025 and 2024, and the Parent Company Only Statements of Comprehensive Income, Parent Company Only Statements of Changes in Equity, Parent Company Only Statements of Cash Flows for the period from 1 January to 31 December 2025 and 2024, and the notes to the parent company only financial statements (including the summary of significant accounting policies), have been audited by our accountants.
In our opinion, the aforementioned parent company only financial statements are prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and they fairly present the financial position of SCIENTECH CORPORATION as of 31 December 2025 and 2024, and its financial performance and cash flows for the periods from 1 January to 31 December 2025 and 2024.
Basis of Audit Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. The personnel of our affiliated firm have adhered to the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code), maintaining impartial independence with SCIENTECH CORPORATION and fulfilling other responsibilities under the code. 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 refer to matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in the audit of the SCIENTECH CORPORATION parent company only financial statements for the year 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these issues.
The key audit matters of the individual financial statements for the year 2025 are stated as follows:
Revenue recognition
SCIENTECH CORPORATION in 2025, as Sales revenue from agency and manufacturing machinery is material to the financial statements as a whole (accounting for 71% of total Sales revenue), and Sales revenue of machinery is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied, there is a risk that the Company may recognize Sales revenue before the criteria for revenue recognition of machinery sales are met; therefore, it is identified as a key audit matter.
Our main audit procedures to address the said matter included understanding and testing the effectiveness of the design and implementation of the internal control system Sales revenue and discussing with the management about whether the accounting policy for Sales revenue recognition is appropriate and consistently adopted; we also sampled sales documents to verify the Terms and conditions on the order or sale contract and check the acceptance certificate signed off by customers, so as to assess whether the Sales revenue recognition is appropriate.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines it is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.
4
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the SCIENTECH CORPORATION'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 SCIENTECH CORPORATION 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 SCIENTECH CORPORATION's financial reporting process.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists in these parent company only financial statements. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements 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 individual financial statements.
When performing the audit in accordance with Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism. We also conduct the following tasks:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
5
-
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 SCIENTECH CORPORATION'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 SCIENTECH CORPORATION's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the parent company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the SCIENTECH CORPORATION to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures and whether or not the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within SCIENTECH CORPORATION to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. The auditor is responsible for directing, supervising, and executing the audit engagement and for forming the audit opinion of SCIENTECH CORPORATION.
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.
6
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 determined the key audit matters for the audit of the SCIENTECH CORPORATION 2025 individual financial statements. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

4. Summary of significant accounting policies
- (I) Compliance statement
The parent company only financial statements were prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
- (II) Basis of preparation
Except for the financial instruments measured at fair value and the net defined benefit liabilities recognized at the present value of defined benefit obligations less the fair value of the plan assets, the parent company only financial statements were prepared on the basis of historical cost.
20
Fair value measurements are classified into Level 1, 2, and 3 based on the degree to which an input is observable and the significance of the input:
-
Level 1 inputs: The quoted price in an active market for identical assets or liabilities that is accessible on the measurement date (before adjustment).
-
Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1, the inputs that are observable for assets or liabilities directly (i.e. the price) or indirectly (i.e. inferred from the price).
-
Level 3 inputs: The inputs that are not observable for assets or liabilities.
When preparing the parent company only financial statements, the Group accounted for subsidiaries and associates using the equity method. To align the profit or loss, Other comprehensive income, and equity in the parent company only financial statements with those attributable to owners of the Company stated in the parent company only financial statements, any differences resulting from the difference between parent company only basis and parent company only basis are adjusted through “ ” “ Investments accounted for using equity method , Share of profit or loss of associates and subsidiaries ” , “ Share of Other comprehensive income of subsidiaries and associates accounted for using equity method ” , and other related equity items.
(III) Criteria for classification of assets and liabilities as current or non - current
Current assets include:
-
Assets that are held mainly for trading purposes;
-
Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and
-
Cash or cash equivalents (excluding those that are restricted for being used for exchange or settlement of liabilities within 12 months after the balance sheet date).
-
Current liabilities include:
-
Liabilities that are held mainly for trading purposes;
21
-
Liabilities that will be settled within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and
-
Liabilities for which there is no substantive right to extend the due date to more than 12 months after the balance sheet date.
Assets or liabilities that are not the above-mentioned current assets or current liabilities are classified as non-current assets or non-current liabilities.
- (IV) Foreign currency
When preparing the financial statements, the Company translated the transactions denominated in currencies other than its functional currency (i.e., foreign currencies) into its functional currency by applying the exchange rate prevailing on the transaction date.
Monetary items in foreign currencies are translated at the closing exchange rate on each balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from settlement or translation of the monetary items are recognized in the profit or loss of the period.
Non-monetary items in foreign currencies measured at fair value are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the date the fair value was determined. The exchange differences resulting therefrom are recognized in profit or loss of the period, or in other comprehensive income when changes in fair value of such items were designated to be recognized in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items in foreign currencies measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate on the date of transaction and are not retranslated.
During preparation of the parent company only financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company ’s foreign operations (including the subsidiaries, associates, or branch companies of which the countries they operate or the currencies they use are different from those of the Company) are translated into NTD at the exchange rate prevailing on each balance sheet date. The income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate of the period, and the exchange differences resulting therefrom are recognized in other comprehensive income.
22
(V) Inventories
Inventories include raw materials, work-in-progress, finished goods, and products. Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost and net realizable values are compared on an item by item basis, except inventories of the same category. Net realizable value refers to the estimated selling price in a normal situation less the estimated cost needed to complete the work and the estimated cost needed to complete the sale. The weighted average method is used to calculate the inventory cost.
(VI) Investment in subsidiary
The Company accounted for investment in subsidiaries using the equity method.
A subsidiary refers to an entity controlled by the Company.
Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at its costs and the amount of increase or decrease in the carrying amount of such investment after the date of acquisition depends on profits distributed and the Company ’s shares of profit/loss and other comprehensive income in the subsidiaries. In addition, changes in subsidiaries’ other equity attributable to the Company are recognized according to the shareholding percentage.
Changes in the Company's ownership interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. The difference between the carrying amount of the investment and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.
When the Company's share of losses in a subsidiary equals or exceeds its interest in that subsidiary (including the carrying amount of the subsidiary under the equity method and other long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company's net investment in that subsidiary), the Company continues to recognize its share of losses in proportion to its ownership interest.
The amount by which the acquisition cost exceeds the Company's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary constituting a business on the acquisition date is recognized
23
as Goodwill. Such Goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and shall not be amortized; the amount by which the Company's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary constituting a business on the acquisition date exceeds the acquisition cost is recognized as a gain for the current year.
When assessing impairment, the Company considers cashgenerating units on the basis of the financial statements as a whole and compares their recoverable amounts with their carrying amounts. If the recoverable amount of an asset subsequently increases, the reversal of Impairment loss shall be recognized as a gain, provided that the carrying amount of the asset after the reversal of Impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of required amortization, had no Impairment loss been recognized for the asset. Impairment loss attributable to Goodwill shall not be reversed in subsequent periods.
When control over a subsidiary is lost, the Company measures its remaining investment in the former subsidiary at its fair value on the date when control is lost. The difference between the fair value of the remaining investment plus any consideration from disposal and the carrying amount of the investment on the date when control is lost is recognized in profit or loss for the current year. In addition, all amounts recognized in Other comprehensive income related to the subsidiary shall be accounted for on the same basis as the basis for the direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities by the Company.
Unrealized gains and losses from downstream transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated in the parent company only financial statements. The profit or loss generated from the upstream and side stream transactions between the Company and the subsidiaries is recognized in the parent company only financial statements only when such profit or loss is irrelevant to the Company ’s equity in the subsidiaries.
24
(VII) Investment in associates
An associate refers to a company over which the Company has a significant influence and which is not a subsidiary or joint venture. The Company accounted for investments in associates using the equity method.
Under the equity method, the investment in associates is initially recognized at its costs and the amount of increase or decrease in the carrying amount of such investment after the date of acquisition depends on the profits distributed and the Company ’s shares of profit/loss and other comprehensive income in the associates and joint ventures. In addition, changes to the Group ’s equity in the associates are recognized based on our shareholding ratio.
When an associate issues new shares, if the Company does not subscribe in proportion to its shareholding, resulting in a change in the shareholding ratio and thereby causing an increase or decrease in the net equity value of the investment, the amount of such increase or — decrease is adjusted to Capital surplus changes in net equity value of associates accounted for using the equity method and Investments accounted for using equity method. However, if the failure to subscribe or acquire in proportion to the shareholding ratio results in a decrease in the ownership interest in the associate, the amount recognized in Other comprehensive income related to that associate shall be reclassified in proportion to the decrease, on the same basis as would be required if the associate had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities; if the aforementioned adjustment should be debited to Capital surplus, and the balance of Capital surplus arising from Investments accounted for using equity method is insufficient, the difference shall be debited to Retained earnings.
When the Company's share of losses of an associate equals or exceeds its interest in that associate (which includes the carrying amount of the investment in the associate under the equity method and any other long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company's net investment in that associate), the Company discontinues
25
recognizing its share of further losses. The Company recognizes additional losses and liabilities only when any legal obligation or constructive obligation is incurred or the Company made payment on behalf of the associates.
For impairment evaluation, the Company tests the entire investment book value for impairment as a single asset by comparing the recoverable amount and book value of the investment. Any recognized impairment loss is also part of the investment book value. Any reversal of the impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increased.
The Company ceases to adopt the equity method from the date its investment ceases to be an affiliate, and its retained interest in the former affiliate is measured at fair value. The difference between the fair value and the price of disposal and the carrying amount of the investment on the date of cessation of the equity method is stated as included in the current year's profit or loss. In addition, all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income related to the affiliated enterprise shall be accounted for on the same basis as the basis for the direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities by the affiliated enterprise.
The profit or loss generated from the upstream, downstream, and side stream transactions between the Company and the associates is recognized in the parent company only financial statements only when such profit or loss is irrelevant to the Company ’s equity in the associates.
(VIII) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are initially recognized at cost and subsequently at cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment.
Except for the self-owned land, which is not depreciated, each significant part of the property, plants, and equipment is separately depreciated on the straight-line basis over their useful life. The Consolidated Company reviews the estimated useful life, residual value, and method of depreciation at least once before the end of each year and
26
prospectively recognizes the effect from changes in accounting estimates.
When property, plant, and equipment is disposed of, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the asset book value is recognized in profit or loss. (IX) Patent right
Patent rights acquired separately are initially measured in accordance with the cost and subsequently based on the cost net of accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Patent rights are amortized on the straight-line basis over their useful life. The Company reviews the estimated useful life, residual value, and method of amortization at least once before the end of each year and prospectively recognizes the effects of changes in accounting estimates.
(X) Impairments of property, plant, and equipment, right-of-use assets, and intangible assets
The Company assesses whether there are any signs indicating that any property, plant, and equipment, right-of-use assets, or intangible assets might be impaired on each balance sheet date. If any such indication exists, then the asset ’s recoverable amount is estimated. When the recoverable amount of individual assets cannot be estimated, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the assets belong. Corporate assets are allocated on a reasonable and consistent basis to the smallest group of cash -generating units
The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs of sale and the value in use. When the recoverable amount of any individual assets or cash-generating units is less than the book value, the book value of the individual assets or cash-generating units is adjusted down to the recoverable amount, and the impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
When the impairment loss is reversed subsequently, the book value of the asset or cash-generating unit is adjusted up to the revised recoverable amount. However, the increased book value shall not exceed the book value that would have been determined (net of amortization or
27
depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized in prior years. The reversal of the impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss. (XI) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized in the parent company only balance sheet when the Company becomes a party to the instrument contract.
Financial assets or financial liabilities other than those measured at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at the fair value plus the transaction costs that can be directly attributed to acquisition or issuance of such financial assets or liabilities. Any transaction cost directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of the financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss is immediately recognized in profit or loss.
- Financial assets
Routine transactions of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on the trade date accounting.
- (1) Type of measurement
The Company’s financial assets include financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets measured at amortized cost, and investment in equity instrument measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.
- A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are mandatorily measured at fair. Mandatorily at fair value through profit or loss value financial assets include equity instrument investments not designated as measured at fair value through Other comprehensive income value and debt instrument investments that do not meet the criteria for classification as measured at amortized cost or at fair value through Other comprehensive income.
Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value; the dividends and interest derived therefrom are recognized in Other income and
28
Interest revenue, respectively. Gains or losses from remeasurement are recognized in Other gains and losses.
- B. Financial assets at amortized cost
When the Company's invested financial assets meet both of the following two conditions, they are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost:
-
a. The financial assets are held within a business model whose objective is collecting contractual cash flows; and
-
b. The contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
After the initial recognition, the financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash and cash equivalents and receivables [including those due from related party]) are measured at the amortized cost equal to the total book value determined under the effective interest method less any impairment losses, and any gain or loss from foreign currency translation is recognized in profit or loss.
Interest income is calculated as the effective interest rate times the total book value of financial assets, except under the following two circumstances:
-
a. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, the interest income is calculated as the credit - adjusted effective interest rate times the amortized cost of the financial assets.
-
b. For financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired but subsequently become creditimpaired, the interest income is calculated as the effective interest rate times the amortized cost of the financial assets, in all subsequent periods following the period in which the impairment occurred.
29
Financial assets are deemed to be credit-impaired upon the occurrence of significant financial difficulties confronting the issuer or debtor; default; or the circumstance that the debtor is likely to file for bankruptcy or other financial reorganization.
Cash equivalents include time deposits that are highly liquid, readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and that mature within three months after the acquisition date; cash equivalents are used to meet short-term cash commitments. C. Investment in equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income
At initial recognition, the Company may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading and are not contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination, to be measured at fair value through Other comprehensive income.
Investment in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is measured at fair value. Subsequent changes in the fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity.
The dividends derived investment in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognized in profit or loss when the Company ’s right to receive dividends is determined, except under the circumstance that such dividends apparently represent a partial return of the investment cost. (2) Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses impairment losses on the financial assets (including accounts receivable [including those due from related parties]) measured at amortized cost based on the expected credit losses on each balance sheet date.
30
Receivables (including those due from related parties) are recognized with a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs. The Group first assess whether the credit risk on other financial assets significantly has increased after the initial recognition. When the increase is not significant, the loss allowance for the financial assets is recognized at the 12 - month expected credit losses; when the increase is significant, the loss allowance is recognized at the lifetime expected credit losses.
Expected credit losses are the weighted average credit losses with the probability of default ('PD') as the weight. 12month expected credit losses represent the expected credit losses on financial instruments from any potential default within 12 months after the reporting date. Lifetime expected credit losses represent the expected credit losses on financial instruments from any potential default during the expected lifetime.
For the purpose of internal credit risk management, financial assets are deemed to be defaulted when any of the following circumstance occurs, without consideration of the collaterals held:
-
A. Any internal or external information indicates that a debtor is impossible to pay off the debts.
-
B. Any contractual payment is overdue, unless any reasonable and supportable information demonstrates that a more lagging default criterion is more appropriate.
The impairment loss on all financial assets is deducted from the book value of the financial assets through their allowance account.
- (3) Derecognition of financial assets
The Company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially
31
all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred to other entities.
For derecognition of the entire financial assets measured at amortized cost, the differences between the book value and the received consideration are recognized in profit or loss. For derecognition of the entire investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the cumulative gain or loss is directly transferred to retained earnings and not reclassified as profit or loss.
2. Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized as the amount of consideration received, less the direct cost of issuance.
When a reacquired equity instrument is originally owned by the Company, the re-acquisition is recognized as a deduction to equity. Purchase, sale, issuance, or cancelation of the equity instruments owned by the Company are not recognized in profit or loss.
3. Financial liabilities
(1)Subsequent measurement
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
- (2) Derecognition of financial liabilities
For derecognition of financial liabilities, the differences between the book value and the consideration paid are recognized in profit or loss.
4. Convertible Bonds
The compound financial instruments (convertible bonds) issued by the Company are classified into their respective components as financial liability and equity at initial recognition according to the substance of the contractual agreement and the definition of financial liability and equity instruments.
32
At initial recognition, the fair value of the components of liabilities is estimated using the market rate of similar non - convertible instruments at that time, and is measured at amortized cost calculated using the effective interest method until conversio n or maturity. The component of liabilities embedded with nonequity derivative instruments is measured at fair value.
The conversion rights classified as equity are recognized as the residual amount of the overall fair value of the compound instrument less the fair value of the separately determined liabilities component, after deducting the impact of income tax, and are not subsequently remeasured as equity. Upon the exercise of the conversion right, the relevant portion of the liabilities and the amount in equity will be reclassified into share capital and capital surplus, additional paid-in capital. If the conversion rights of convertible bonds are not exercised by the maturity date, the amount recognized in equity will be transferred to capital surplus, additional paid-in capital.
The transaction costs related to the issuance of convertible bonds are allocated according to the proportion of the total price to the liabilities (included in the book value of liabilities) and the equity component (included in equity).
(XII) Provisions
The warranty obligation that ensures agreement between products and agreed specifications is management ’s best estimate of the expenditure to settle the Company ’s obligations, and is recognized at the time when revenue is recognized for underlying products.
(XIII) Revenue recognition
After identifying the performance obligations under a contract with customers, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation and recognizes the allocated amount as revenue ’ after each performance obligation is fulfilled. The Company s revenue comes from equipment trading and wafer reclamation, and is recognized when products are accepted by customers; or Terms and conditions when
33
they are shipped or delivered to the place designated by customers, depending on the contractual terms. Before being recognized as revenue, advance receipts are recognized as contract liability.
(XIV) Lease
At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
- The Company is a lessor
It is classified as operating lease. Lease payments from an operating lease are recognized as revenue on a straight line basis over the lease term.
- The Company is a lessee
Lease payments for leases of low-value underlying assets and short-term leases to which the recognition exemption applies are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term, while other leases are recognized as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at the commencement date of the lease.
The right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost (including the initial recognized amount of lease liabilities), and subsequently measured at the cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, adjusted for remeasurements of lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are separately presented in the parent company only balance sheet.
Right-of-use assets are subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease term.
Lease liabilities is initially measured at the present value of lease payment (fixed payments). If the interest rate implicit in a lease can be readily determined, the lease payments are discounted at the interest rate. When such interest rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate of interest is used.
Subsequently, the lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost under the effective interest method, and the interest expenses
34
are amortized over the lease term. When future lease payments change as a result of a change in the lease term, the Company re - measures the lease liabilities and adjusts the right-of-use assets accordingly. Lease liabilities are separately presented in the parent company only balance sheet.
(XV) Government grants
Government grants may be recognized only when it is reasonable to ensure that the Company will comply with the conditions incidental to the government grants and the subsidies may be received affirmatively.
Government subsidies related to income are recognized in other income on a systematic basis in the period in which the relevant costs intended to compensate are recognized as expenses by the Company. Government subsidies that are conditioned on the company purchasing, constructing or otherwise acquiring non-current assets are recognized as deferred income, and are transferred to profit or loss during the useful life of the relevant assets on a reasonable and systematic basis.
If the government grants are intended to make up for the expenses or losses that have occurred, or immediately finance the Company without incurring any future cost, such grants are recognized in profit or loss during the period when they can be received.
-
(XVI) Employee benefits
-
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are measured at non-discounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for the services to be provided by the employees.
- Post-employment benefits
The pension contributed under the Defined Contribution Pension Plan is recognized in expenses during the period when employees provide services.
Defined benefit cost under the Defined Benefit Pension Plan is calculated actuarially using the projected unit credit method. Service costs and net interest on net defined benefit liabilities are recognized as employee benefit expenses when they are incurred.
35
Remeasurements are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in retained earnings when they occurred, and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
The net defined benefit assets represent the appropriation surplus of the defined benefit pension plan. The net defined benefit assets shall not exceed the present value of the refundable contributions from the plan or the reduced future contributions.
(XVII) Income tax
Tax expenses are the total of current income tax and deferred income tax.
- Current income tax
The additional income tax on undistributed earnings that is calculated according to the Income Tax Act of the Republic of China is recognized in the year when the related resolution is made at the shareholders’ meeting.
The adjustments to the income tax payable in the previous year are recognized in the current income tax. 2. Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is calculated based on the temporary difference between the book value of assets and liabilities and the tax basis for calculation of taxable income.
Deferred income tax liabilities are generally recognized based on all taxable temporary differences; deferred income tax assets are recognized when taxable income sufficiently enough to offset the deductible temporary differences is highly likely in the future.
Taxable temporary differences related to investment in subsidiaries and associates are recognized in deferred income tax liabilities except that the Company can control the timing of reversal of the taxable temporary differences and that such differences are not likely to be reversed in the foreseeable future. Deductible temporary differences related to such investments are recognized as deferred tax assets only to the extent that they are likely to have sufficient taxable income to realize the temporary differences and are expected to reverse in the foreseeabl e future.
36
The book value of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date. When any of the deferred income tax assets is not likely to have adequate taxable income necessary for the recovery of all or part of the assets anymore, the book value thereof is reduced. Those that are not originally recognized in deferred income tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date. When any of those is likely to generate taxable income necessary for the recovery of all or part of the assets in the future, the book value thereof is increased.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rate of the period in which the liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or realized. The tax rate is subject to the tax rate and tax law legislated or substantively legislated on the balance sheet date. The deferred income tax liabilities and assets are measured to reflect the tax consequences on the balance sheet date arising from the method that the Company expects to use to recover or settle the book value of the liabilities and assets.
- Current and deferred income taxes
Current and deferred income taxes are recognized in profit or loss, or in other comprehensive income if they are related to the current and deferred income taxes designated to be recognized in other comprehensive income.
5. Significant Accounting Judgments, Assumptions, and Major Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
For adoption of the accounting policies, the management, based on historical experience and other relevant factors, must make judgments, estimates, and assumptions related to the information that cannot be readily acquired from other sources. The actual results may differ from those estimates.
When the Company develops significant accounting estimates, it takes the development of climate change and related government policies and regulations and their potential impact on the economic environment into account when making significant accounting estimates for cash flows,
37
growth rate, discount rate, and profitability. The management will continue to review the estimates and basic assumptions.
Through an assessment, the management of the Company does not think an uncertainty exists in material accounting judgments, estimates, or assumptions.

The Company invested in the common shares of the aforementioned companies according to its medium-term and long-term strategies, and expected to gain profits through long-term investment. Since the Company's management deemed that the recognition of short-term changes in the investment ’s fair value in profit or loss was not consistent with the said long-term investment plan, they opted to have the investment measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

The Company recognizes the loss allowance for notes receivable and accounts receivable (including those due from related parties) based on the lifetime expected credit losses. The lifetime expected credit losses are calculated by considering the customer ’s default record and current financial position, and the industrial and economic conditions.

(II) Investment in associates
31 December 2025 31 December 2024
==> picture [388 x 24] intentionally omitted <==
In December 2024, the Company subscribed for 6,723 thousand ordinary shares of YAYA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION (YAYA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION) with cash of 215,133 thousand, holding a shareholding ratio of 40.34%. The Company's shareholding in YAYA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION did not reach 50%, but it is individually the largest shareholder. After considering the number and dispersion of voting shares held by other shareholders, the Company assessed that the shareholdings are not diffuse. As a result, the Company is not yet able to direct the corporation's relevant activities and thus has only significant influence over it, and therefore classifies it as an associate and accounts for it using the equity method; in January 2025, the Company obtained more than half of the seats on the board of directors of YAYA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, and after judgment, it has substantive control over YAYA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, thereby constituting a parent-subsidiary relationship.
Although holding less than 20% of the shares of some individually insignificant associates, the Company has a representative in their board of directors and thus has significant influence over them.
Investments in associates accounted for using the equity method, and the Company’s share of profit or loss and Other comprehensive income in them, were computed based on the financial statements not audited by CPAs. However, the management of the Company did not think that not having the financial statements of the aforementioned investee companies audited by CPAs would cause any material impact.
Based on the assessment of the RENORIGIN INNOVATION INSTITUTE CO., LTD. future recoverable amount, the Company recognized Impairment loss of 3,527 thousand (recorded under Other gains and losses) in 2025.

The Company is exposed to the following risks due to the pension “ ” system under the Labor Standards Act :
- Investment risk
:The Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor separately has invested the labor pension fund in domestic (foreign) equity and debt securities, and bank deposits. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau or under the mandated ’
management. However, the profit generated from the Company s plan assets shall be calculated with an interest rate not below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
-
Interest rate risk: A decrease in the interest rates of government bonds leads to an increase in the present value of the defined benefit obligation, and the return on debt investment of the plan assets will be increased accordingly. The net defined benefit liabilities may be partially offset by both increases.
-
Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated with reference to the future salary of the plan participants. Therefore, the present value of the defined benefit obligation would be increased by an increase in the plan participants’ salary.
The Company ’s present value of the defined benefit obligation was calculated actuarially by a qualified actuary. The major assumptions on the date of measurement are as follows:
53
| Discount rate Rate of expected salary increase |
31 December 2025 1.35% 3.00% |
31 December 2024 |
|---|---|---|
| 1.60% 3.00% |
If there was any reasonably possible change to the major actuarial assumptions separately, the resulting increase (decrease) in the present value of the defined benefit obligation in the situation where all the other assumptions remained the same is as follows:
| other assumptions remained the | same is as follows: | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Discount rate Increase by 0.25% Decrease by 0.25% Rate of expected salary increase Increase by 0.25% Decrease by 0.25% |

$ 116) $ 121 $ 115 $ 110) |
Since the actuarial assumptions might be correlated to each other and it is unlikely that a single assumption changes alone, the aforesaid sensitivity analysis might not reflect the actual changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

- Level 2 fair value valuation techniques and inputs
If there is no quoted price for the common shares issued by domestic TWSE-listed companies through a private placement, such common shares are evaluated by using valuation techniques. The assumptions and estimates used by the Company for the valuation techniques are the same as the assumptions and estimates
66
accessible to the Company that are used by market participants for quoting a price for financial products.
The valuation technique the Company used for measuring the fair value is the Black-Scholes pricing model.
-
Level 3 fair value valuation techniques and inputs
-
(1) The redemption and put options of the convertible bonds issued by the Company are evaluated for fair value using the two trees convertible bond valuation model. The significant unobservable inputs adopted are stock price volatility. When the volatility of stock prices increases, the fair value of such derivatives will change. The stock price volatility rates adopted as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were 45.62% and 56.31%, respectively.
-
(2) When valuing the foreign shares not traded on an exchange or OTC, the Group used the income approach by which the present value of benefits expected to be derived from such investment is calculated by discounting the cash flows. Significant unobservable inputs are as follows. When liquidity discount decreases, the fair value of such investment will increase.
==> picture [381 x 26] intentionally omitted <==
If the following inputs are changed to reflect reasonably possible alternative assumptions while other inputs are held constant, the amount of the fair value of equity investment will increase (decrease) by:

(IV) Financial risk management purpose and policy
The Company’s financial instruments mainly comprise equity investment, receivables, payables, borrowings, and lease liabilities. The financial management department of the Company provides services for each type of business and supervises and manages the financial risks incidental to the Company ’s operations by referencing the internal risk report in which risk exposure is analyzed based on the extent and extensiveness of risks. Such risks include market risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk.
The financial management department provides a report to the key management of the Company quarterly to reduce risk exposure. The Company did not adopt hedge accounting.
68
1. Market risk
- (1) Exchange rate risk
The Company is engaged in sales and purchase denominated in foreign currency, and thus is exposed to the exchange rate fluctuation risk.
For the book value of the Company ’s monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency on the balance sheet date, refer to Note 30.
Sensitivity analysis
The Company is affected primarily by fluctuation in the exchange rate of USD.
The sensitivity analysis includes only the foreign currency monetary items outstanding, which are translated at the end of year by using an exchange rate that could be adjusted by a maximum of 1%. When the New Taiwan Dollar appreciates/depreciates by 1% against the USD, it will cause the parent-only Profit before tax for 2025 and 2024 to change by 15,212 thousand and 17,341 thousand, respectively.
The exchange rate fluctuation mainly affects the Company’s bank deposits, as well as the payables and receivables denominated in USD that were still outstanding and were not hedged with a cash flow hedge on the balance sheet date.
(2) Interest rate risk
The interest rate risk facing the Company mainly comes from the Company’s floating-rate bank deposits.
The book value of the financial assets and liabilities of the Company that were exposed to the interest rate risk on the balance sheet date is as follows:
==> picture [206 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [336 x 54] intentionally omitted <==
69
31 December 2025 31 December 2024
| With fair value interest | ||
|---|---|---|
| rate risk | ||
| - Financial assets | 1,663,050 | 2,245,540 |
| - Financial liabilities | 1,273,014 | 1,308,875 |
| - Lease liabilities | 78,857 | 80,696 |
Sensitivity analysis
The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest risk exposure of non-derivatives on the balance sheet date. Floating-rate liabilities are analyzed based on the assumption that the liability amount outstanding on the balance sheet date remains outstanding throughout the reporting period.
If interest rate increases/decreases by 1%, held other variables constant, the Company ’s individual Profit before tax for 2025 and 2024 will change by 24,704 thousand and 19,019 thousand, respectively.
2. Credit risk
The credit risk means the risk of causing financial loss to the Company because the trading counterparty defaults on contractual obligations. As of the balance sheet date, the Company ’s maximum credit exposure to the financial loss caused by a trading counterparty’s defaulting on his/her performance obligations mainly lies in the book value of the financial assets recognized in the parent company only balance sheet.
According to its policy, the Company only trades with reputational counterparties and requires provision of collateral where necessary to reduce the risk of financial loss due to default.
The Company exposes to the credit risk, which mainly comes from the customers who individually account for 10% or more of the Company’s total accounts receivables. Refer to Note 9 for details.
70
3. Liquidity risk
The Company manages and maintains sufficient cash to support business operations and reduce the effect of the fluctuating cash flow. The management of the Company monitors the use of bank financing facilities and ensures compliance with the terms of the loan contract.
Bank loans are one of the Company ’s important sources of liquidity. For the bank financing facility that the Company has not used, refer to relevant descriptions in (2) below.
