One. Letter to Shareholders

Greetings to all of our valued shareholders,

We welcome all shareholders to take the time to attend the 2026 annual general meeting. The Company's 2025 business report and the 2026 business plan are described as follows:

I. 2025 Business Results

(I) Results of the business plan:

Owing to the support of our shareholders and employees, the Company and its subsidiaries delivered consolidated revenue and net income after taxes totaling NT$3,990,550,000 and NT$688,353,000, respectively, for 2025. Compared with NT$3,696,692,000 of consolidated revenues and NT$558,153,000 of consolidated net income after taxes of 2024, they represented growth rates of 7.95% and 23.33%, respectively, with an after-tax EPS of NT$4.48 in 2025. On behalf of the board of directors, we would like to thank all employees for their contribution and the shareholders for your continuous support.

Unit: NT$1,000

Long-term funds to fixed assets ratio (%) 125.77 127.83
Solvency Current ratio (%) 154.67 163.96
Quick ratio (%) 135.93 145.55

Note: Based on the data of the consolidate financial statements.

(2) Profitability

In terms of profitability, the Company produced NT$910,788,000 of net profit before tax, up NT$239,516,000 or 35.68% from last year's NT$671,272,000. After-tax earnings per share are calculated at NT$4.48 for the year, up NT$0.79 from the previous year's NT$3.69. Both profitability indicators have shown improvements on a year-on-year basis.

(IV) Status on research and development

We are a company specializing in handling medical and business waste. In view of the awareness of environmental protection in the field of business and corporate social responsibility, the Company formulates control measures to prevent negative impact on the surrounding environment due to mishandling of waste and uses effective statistical data to enhance the processing capability.

In 2021, we collaborated with Ruentex Materials' plant in Dongshan Township, Yilan County to start the reuse of bottom slag of incinerator as an alternative raw materials to be used in cement production and obtained the general reuse permit for incinerator bottom slag in September 2025.

II. Summary of 2026 Business Plan

(I) Business guidelines:

  1. In response to the stability in the supply and demand of businesses handling infectious industrial waste, the Company actively develops the business of general medical waste mixture to increase the utilization of production capacity.

  1. In response to the 6th batch of the new control target of the Continuous Emission Monitoring System (CEMS) for air pollutants from stationary pollution sources, the Company actively adopts joint or shared processing systems that have been eliminated.

  2. Differentiate the positioning to improve the competitive advantage of the cleaning service in the price-oriented pure competition.

  3. Maintain the Company's leadership in handling medical waste and expand to the markets where solidification and physicochemical treatment of business waste are required, and develop environmental testing and inspection agency licensing services.

  4. Introduce an information management system to strictly control revenue and expense and abide by the budgeting to improve the operating performance and ensure profitability.

(II) Business objectives:

The plant in the Changhua Coastal Industrial Park is in smooth operation overall, and the plants of Beijing Ruentex and Yunlin have been operating throughout the year. For 2026, we will continue to cultivate the medical waste market and the industrial waste business, continuously cooperate with the Resource Circulation Administration, Ministry of Environment to implement the "Reduction, Recovery and Resource Recycling Promotion Plan - Asbestos Building Materials Waste Removal and Treatment Plan", and strengthen the development of waste business as the key focus.

The operating permit for the Phase 3 landfill at Changhua Coastal Industrial Park was obtained in August 2023. The Company acquired the environmental protection land plot at W3 of Xianxi District, located in Changhua Coastal Industrial Park, from the Industrial Development Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs in 2020. The construction permit was approved on April 28, 2023, and the project was contracted in August of the same year and is now in progress. The project is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2026, and the user license will be obtained in the third quarter.

In response to the damage to buildings in Chiayi City, Chiayi County, and Tainan City caused by Typhoon Danas on July 6, 2025, the Ministry of Environment approved subsidies for the three counties and cities, requesting local governments to prioritize assisting residents in transporting asbestos building material waste to storage areas. The Executive Yuan approved the cleanup of asbestos waste generated by residential, livestock, and agricultural facilities, as well as other structures affected by the disaster, on July 29, 2025, to accelerate recovery efforts. The Company also cooperated with the central government's policy to assist in the disposal of typhoon-damaged asbestos building materials.

The industrial waste market in China is affected by the downturn of the overall economy, and the overall industrial waste market has shrunken in both volume and prices, resulting in


the operating conditions of the subsidiary in China not as good as expected. Nonetheless, the subsidiary continues to improve its treatment technology in hopes of increasing waste processing efficiency and maintaining 2026 levels of waste processing capacity.

(III) Important manufacturing and sales policies:

  1. Regularly hold the training of or contracts out the training of operators and equipment maintenance personnel of the plant and continue to improve the incineration operations to raise the efficiency.
  2. Improve the existing processing equipment to comply with the increasing stringent environmental regulations, further improving the utility of working hours and the effective capacity of different organizational units.
  3. Regularly organize training sessions for professional ability of sales staff and their assistants and the Company drivers and make commitment to handle customers' claims or complaints.
  4. Enhance customer service to ensure their satisfaction.
  5. Focus on defining market positioning to avoid competition posed by new market entrants.
  6. Keep an eye on the demand and supply of market and adopt the necessary marketing strategies in a timely manner.
  7. Establish strategic alliances with recycling operators to have a more complete product offering.
  8. Assess markets related to environmental protection to conduct investment diversification.

III. Future Development Strategies

(I) Biomedical waste:

According to the latest statistics from the Ministry of Health and Welfare, there are about 24,000 medical institutions nationwide. About 33% of the waste from medical institutions is biomedical waste that requires special attention. For many years, biomedical waste disposal has been one of the most successful tasks handled by government agencies. Almost all of the produced biomedical waste are disposed of according to regulations, so the market is saturated. In view of such market conditions, we intend to adopt a strategic alliance approach to increase our competitiveness and expect to improve the stability of market prices. We use our own market advantages and economies of scale to carry out consolidation, merger, and acquisition for small and medium cleaning companies and treatment organizations.

In order to promote diverse reporting channels for the delivery notes of non-controlled


hazardous industrial wastes, the Ministry of Environment of the Executive Yuan has announced the amendment to Article 17 of the Methods and Facilities Standards for the Storage, Clearance and Disposal of Industrial Waste on February 16, 2022, which added that electronic forms would be available for network transmission in addition to paper document submission. The Company will encourage collaborating cleaning companies to cooperate in the implementation of electronic delivery forms to jointly achieve energy conservation, paper reduction, and improvement of work efficiency.

(II) Business waste:

  1. Waste management presents challenges and requires attention:

The Ministry of Environment is promoting challenging waste removal and disposal procedures that require attention. The Company will also continue to cooperate with the handling of asbestos building material waste.

  1. Advocate for the remediation of pollution sites:

The Environmental Management Administration of the Ministry of Environment has been accelerating pollution improvement efforts since 2017, promoting plans for the remediation of polluted sites. Starting in 2024, it has implemented phased and annual projects to achieve comprehensive pollution improvement and risk control. The Company cooperated with rectification policies to seek revenue sources.

  1. Adopt the business waste policies of the Ministry of Economic Affairs to help the government in solving the cleaning and disposal issues.

The output of industrial waste from designated businesses nationwide in 2024 was 19.83 million metric tons. The industrial sector produced the most industrial waste nationwide, with an output of 16.73 million metric tons, of which 1.55 million metric tons are hazardous industrial waste (accounting for 9.3%). The Industrial Development Bureau provides guidance to Super-Max Engineering in northern Taiwan, Sunny Friend (plant in Changhua Coastal Industrial Park) in central Taiwan and Cowin Environmental Resources Waste Treatment Center in southern Taiwan. The incineration units in the three regions can process a total of 12,030 metric tons per month. Sunny Friend's plant at Changhua Coastal Industrial Park will continue to help the government resolve the imbalance of supply and demand in the market for industrial waste disposal.

  1. Develop partnerships among industry, the government and academe and expand capabilities to improve the processing of waste generated by various industries.

  2. Rooted in Taiwan and expansion in China:

Currently, we have bases in Beijing, Jiangsu Suqian, Shanxi Yuncheng and


Shandong Rizhao.

IV. Impacts of the Competitive, Regulatory and Macroeconomic Environmental Factors

(I) Biomedical waste:

The government authority has been working on adding more recycling facilities for infectious business waste. Medical institutions have vigorously promoted waste reduction and resource recovery and recycling, which will reduce the amount of combustible biomedical waste.

In response to the announcement of the Ministry of Environment to add the 6th batch of fixed pollution sources for which continuous automatic monitoring facilities should be installed in public and private places which should be linked to the competent authorities, the Company will continue to monitor the willingness of the joint processing system and competitors in the same industry to invest in the equipment.

(II) Business waste:

  1. Incineration of hazardous business waste:

To continue to promote the active implementation of sustainable development, the FSC has been actively encouraging TWSE/TPEx-listed companies to set reduction targets, strategies and action plans, and thereby ensure that the waste management policies of large-scale business institutions are oriented towards waste sorting and recycling. The Company will continue to monitor the impact of the international ESG on the waste disposal market.

  1. Solidification and landfill treatments of hazardous business waste:

On June 18, 2024, the Ministry of Environment amended the "Principles of Subsidy for Removal and Treatment of Asbestos Building Material Waste" by expanding the scope of subsidies to include business buildings that have construction stopped or been closed down or shut down. Based on the on-site investigation experience, on November 12, 2024, its report was approved by the Executive Yuan to include them in the scope of subsidies for business buildings. Subsequently, "livestock farms" will be given priority in being included in the subsidy program for removal and disposal of asbestos building materials waste, and it was expected to be implemented in 2025. This amendment will help accelerate the proper cleanup of old asbestos-containing building materials waste.

  1. Environmental regulations:

In order to continue expanding real-time monitoring of air pollutant emissions from stationary sources in public and private facilities, and to enhance the monitoring and control capabilities of these sources, the Ministry of Environment amended the


"Fixed Pollution Sources Required to Install Continuous Automatic Monitoring Facilities and Connect to the Competent Authority" on January 2, 2025. The amendment adds a sixth group of public and private facilities required to install these facilities and connect to the authority, and includes sources that use solid recycled fuels and waste-derived fuels, hazardous waste thermal treatment processes, and facilities that have received serious shutdown orders. This amendment also incorporates small incinerators with a processing capacity of less than 400 kg per hour into the monitoring requirements (with some exclusions), which will encourage technological upgrades within the incineration industry or facilitate market exit for less competitive facilities.

In order to align with the new national carbon reduction target and increase the carbon reduction efforts of various sectors, the Ministry of Environment announced a list of emission sources that businesses are required to inventory and report GHG emissions on March 4, 2025. This list includes the service sector, transportation sector, medical institutions, and other businesses. Entities that meet the criteria specified in the announcement will be required to complete annual GHG emission inventory and reporting by April 30 of the following year, starting in 2026. On December 19, 2025, amendments were announced to some provisions of the "Management Regulations for Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory, Registration, and Verification" to simplify the inventory process, which help reduce inventory costs for businesses, and ensure the full utilization of domestic testing resources.

In recent years, China has prioritized state-owned enterprises over the private sector, leading to intense internal competition. At present, China is facing overcapacity and difficulties in the transformation of some industries, while the global economy is also being impacted by the continuing US-China trade conflicts. Looking to the future, we aspire to thrive and adapt in the landscape of global competition.

Finally, in the coming year, the Company will enhance the competitive advantages in waste processing and continue to improve the whole operating procedures to raise the work efficiency, add more education, training and specialization knowledge courses and strengthen the budgeting system and review to reach the profitability goals. We sincerely thank all shareholders for your continued support and encouragement.

Yours truly,

We wish everyone good health,

good luck and prosperity.

Chairman: Fang-Chen Chang

Note 1: The reasons for and rationality and necessity of having the general manager and chairman as the same person and countermeasures: A chairman taking a concurrent position of a general manager can help improve a company's operating efficiency and facilitate the decision-making process. Since General Manager Chang took over as the chairman, his leadership has led Sunny Friend to take steps forward and experience continuous growth in revenue and profits, making the Company the only vertically integrated environmental protection enterprise in the country. Only two directors takes a concurrent position of an employee. Only one director takes a concurrent position of an employee. The other directors are all external directors and independent directors, and there are no signs of becoming a family business. An audit committee was established in May 2020 to strengthen the supervisory function of the board.

  1. Board Diversity and Independence:

(1) Diversity of the Board:

Diversity policy: Describe the board diversity policy, goals and achievement. The diversity policy includes, but is not limited to, the selection criteria for directors, the professional qualifications and experience that the directors should have, the composition or ratio of gender, age, nationality, ethnicity, etc., and describe the Company's specific goals and current achievement for the policy. If the number of female directors on the Board of Directors of a TWSE/TPEx-listed company is less than one-third of the total number of directors, the reason for the shortage and the measures to be taken in response to the shortage must be disclosed.

1-1 Diversity policy: The Company stipulates in Article 20 (competence of the board) of the Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles that the composition of the board of directors should take diversity into consideration, and the policy should include but not be limited to the following two standards:

  • Background and value: Gender, age, nationality, ethnicity, etc.
  • Knowledge and skills: Career background (e.g., law, finance, accounting, industry or management), professional skill and industry experience.

In addition to limiting those who hold concurrent positions to no more than 1/3 of the total board seats, the operations, managing and development requirements take diversification policy into consideration.

1-2 Specific management objectives: Independent directors should serve no more than nine consecutive years. The number of directors taking concurrent positions as the Company's managers shall not exceed 1/3 of the board seats. The age distribution should be even, at least one director of different genders and their professional capabilities cover various fields.

1-3 Current achievements:

  • The Company's independent directors all took office after the re-election at the 2023 annual general shareholders' meeting, and their consecutive terms currently have not exceeded nine years.
  • Among the Company's directors, 22% of them have concurrent positions as the

16


Company's employees, 33% are external directors and 45% are independent directors.

  • The age distribution is 51-80 years old, with 2 directors aged 51-60 years old and 6 directors aged 61-70 years old and 1 director aged 71-80 years old.
  • As for the professional capabilities, 100% in business management, 100% in leadership and decision-making, 56% in finance, accounting, and law, 56% in industry knowledge, 33% in industrial technology, 56% in marketing, 56% in business development, 100% in risk management, 100% in environmental sustainability, 67% in social engagement, and 56% in supply chain management.
  • The Company values gender equality in the composition of the board. Currently, all board members are male directors. Considering the gender diversity of the board of directors, we plan to add at least one female director in the next (for 2026) board of directors election. This director must have rich practical experience and extensive work experience required by the Company's business.

1-4 If the number of directors of either gender on the Board of Directors is less than one-third of the total number of directors, the reason and the countermeasures shall be disclosed in the annual report.

Reason: The professional skills of the Company's directors are in different fields, including business management, leadership decision-making, industry knowledge, finance, and law, which have met the requirement of the Board of Directors to be professional and diversified as required by laws.

Measures adopted: To improve the diversity of the Board of Directors, at least one female director will be added to the next board meeting (2026).

Note 1: The reasons for and rationality and necessity of having the general manager and chairman as the same person and countermeasures: A chairman taking a concurrent position of a general manager can help improve a company's operating efficiency and facilitate the decision-making process.

Only one director takes a concurrent position of an employee. Only one director takes a concurrent position of an employee.

(IV) Assist the government to improve social and environmental issues

Sunny Friend has specialized waste treatment technology and knows that environmental protection work is urgent. Adhering to the principle of doing its part for environmental sustainability, we actively assist the government in solving social and environmental issues, and properly dispose of illegally abandoned waste to prevent environmental pollution from expansion.

(1) In response to public demand for home renovation and asbestos waste removal, the Ministry of Environment secured a $1.6 billion subsidy from the Executive Yuan to continue assisting with the notification, survey, and removal of asbestos-containing building materials. On June 18, 2024, the Ministry amended the "Principle for the Disposal of Asbestos-Containing Waste Removal Subsidies" to expand the subsidy scope to include business buildings that have ceased, suspended or closed down operations. Based on experience gained through on-site inspections, the Ministry reported to the Executive Yuan on November 12, 2024, to include business buildings within the subsidy framework, prioritizing "livestock farms" as the initial recipients of asbestos-containing waste removal subsidies, effective in 2025. The Company has entered into a joint supply contract with the Resource Circulation Administration of the Ministry of Environment to implement the "Reduction, Recycling and Resource Circulation Promotion Plan - Asbestos Building Materials Waste Removal and Treatment Plan" for 2025, and is actively cooperating with national environmental policy initiatives.

(2) In response to the damage to buildings in Chiayi City, Chiayi County, and Tainan City caused by Typhoon Danas on July 6, 2025, the Ministry of Environment approved subsidies for the three counties and cities, requesting local governments to prioritize assisting residents in transporting asbestos building material waste to storage areas. The Executive Yuan approved the cleanup of asbestos waste generated by residential, livestock, and agricultural facilities, as well as other structures affected by the disaster, on July 29, 2025, to accelerate recovery efforts. The Company also cooperated with the central government's policy to assist in the disposal of typhoon-damaged asbestos building materials.

(3) On September 23, 2025, Hualien County’s Guangfu Township was affected by Typhoon Ragasa, resulting in flooding of Matai'an Creek Barrier Lake and causing serious damage to Guangfu Township. The disaster ultimately resulted in deaths and injuries among local residents, as well as severe damage including over 500 hectares of farmland buried by debris and agricultural and livestock losses exceeding NT$430 million. More than 1,000 homes, schools, and government offices were invaded and damaged by silt. The Yunlin County Government actively coordinated with various bureaus and private entities to launch rapid rescue efforts, providing materials, manpower, and heavy machinery support to assist with post-disaster reconstruction and cleanup. The Company also sent a vehicle on September 25, 2025, to help transport post-disaster supplies.

(4) A farm in Wuqi District, Taichung City, reported ongoing pig deaths through its chemical monitoring system. On October 20, 2025, personnel from the Animal Protection Office collected samples from the farm and sent them to the Veterinary Research Institute of the Ministry of Agriculture for testing. On October 21, 2025, the Veterinary Research Institute notified the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Agency that the test results were positive for African swine fever nucleic acid. Emergency epidemic prevention measures were immediately implemented at the case site, and a retrospective epidemiological investigation of the suspected site was launched. An inspection revealed that three businesses in Yunlin County had potentially received meat (oil) products from a farm in Taichung City confirmed to have African Swine Fever, and must therefore destroy the products according to the highest epidemic prevention standards. On October 28, 2025, the Company assisted the Yunlin County Animal and Plant Disease Control Office in destroying a total of 6,940 kilograms of items related to a specific swine plague disposal case.

(5) According to Taiwan’s current laws, heated tobacco products and devices must pass a “health risk assessment review” to be legally sold. The Yunlin County Health Bureau commissioned the destruction of illegal heated tobacco products, with a total of 395 kilograms processed on December 5, 2025.

V. Local sourcing to strengthen our responsibility in environmental protection.

To minimize long-distance energy consumption in transportation, Sunny Friend actively promotes the procurement from ‘local vendors,’ except for cases involving contracted vendors, primary low-cost vendors, or special item purchases. Given that Sunny Friend’s Yunlin plant is located in Yunlin County and its Changhua Coastal plant is situated in Changhua County, the procurement from neighboring counties and cities (including Yunlin County, Changhua County, and Taichung City) accounts for approximately 61% of the total number of procurement contracts. This collaborative approach not only serves to give back to local communities and make the most of local resources but also fosters stronger ties with local vendors. In addition to promoting local procurement, Sunny Friend also adheres to the concept of a new environmental founder and actively cooperates with the government to promote various environmental protection policies. In the process of outsourcing and procurement, the priority is given to recyclable materials, green building materials, environmental protection labels, energy saving labels and other products as much as possible. The environmental protection-related procurement amount in 2025 was NT$43,527,283.

(VI) Climate-related information of publicly traded and OTC companies

Items Implementation
1. Describe board and management supervision and governance of climate-related risks and opportunities. 1. In terms of promoting climate change and sustainable management strategies, the board of directors is responsible for supervising the management of climate issues and playing the role of supervision and governance. Sunny Friend's directors shall exercise the duty of care of good administrators to urge the Company to perform its sustainable development initiatives, examine the results of the implementation thereof from time to time and continually make adjustments so as to ensure the thorough implementation of its sustainable development policies. The Company included climate issue in its consideration of corporate governance and business strategy, and also integrated the climate risk and opportunity management into the overall policy. Through the continuous supervision of the implementation of various risk management mechanisms, the Company hopes to enforce climate change related management practices while expecting the business to continue to grow, and demonstrated the Company's commitment to climate governance. The Board of Directors of the Company authorized all departments to designated personnel to establish a sustainability information work group, hold annual meetings from time to time to discuss climate-related risks and opportunities, be responsible for supervising the corporate sustainability management strategy and subsequent action plans, and report the status to the Board of Directors every year, so that the Board of Directors is aware of the implementation plan and results of the Company's climate-related indicators and targets, so as to achieve the monitoring and supervision purpose.

improvement, process improvement, etc. protection measures, and filed applications in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, in order to achieve the standard of air pollution control in 2025/11/10 and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
General environmental regulations In order to connect with international standards while taking into account the needs of sustainability, the government has been strictly amending environmental protection regulations and has introduced international carbon pricing experience and imposed the carbon fee. Increasing operating or capital costs 4 4 Long-term 5 The Company will continue to monitor changes in domestic and foreign regulations, plan for investment and improvement of environmental protection equipment, and conduct regular inspections of the quality of effluents and actively participate in government seminars to learn and give advice. For issues related to greenhouse gas inventory, the 2022-2025greenhouse gas inventory emission inventory list has been established, and the 2025 internal audit of greenhouse gas inventory has been implemented. In the future, the inventory will be conducted continuously according to the sustainable development roadmap announced by the FSC, and the third-party verification will be completed within the designated period.
Market risk Increase in raw material cost In response to the rise of raw material costs and the shift to alternative products (such as low-priced raw materials with a high carbon footprint) with a high environmental impact, it is not possible that the concept of sustainable development can be considered at the same time, and stakeholders may have a doubt about the sustainability of the Company, which will then affect the Company's image and reputation. In recent years, the government has strengthened waste management and environmental protection regulations. If the treatment cost increases, the Company must invest additional funds to upgrade equipment and strengthen pollution prevention measures. For example, Taiwan's 2050 Net Zero Emission Policy requires incinerators to reduce carbon emissions, which may increase operating costs. Increasing operating or capital costs 4 4 Long-term 5 An increase in the treatment rate: Negotiate with the government or customers to increase the waste treatment expenses to reflect the cost increase. Enhancing equipment efficiency: Plan for process improvement, improve resource utilization efficiency, and reduce energy and medical consumption.
Potential opportunities Resource utilization efficiency Reduce water consumption and water wastage Reduce water consumption and water wastage Decrease in operating or capital cost 4 3 Medium-term 4 A rainwater collection system was installed over the steel-structure roof of the burial site to collect rainwater and store it in the plant for use in the manufacturing process and for cleaning the streets. The wastewater from the water washing tower generated from the incineration

process is treated with the regeneration and treatment process of inorganic salt wastewater, and then the regenerated clean water is circulated in the original process. Both reduce water consumption and increase the utilization rate of valuable water resources. Pursuant to the law, on November 10, 2025, the Company submitted an application to improve the incineration furnace process and reduce the amount of cooling water used in the front end of the originally designed incineration flue gas system.
Recycling and reusing Reuse of bottom ash from incinerators Increase in demand for products or services 4 4 Long-term 4 Plan to recycle the bottom ash from the Changbin incineration process.
Market opportunities Making good use of incentives provided by the public sector On March 20, 2024, the Ministry of Economic Affairs amended the Demonstration and Promotion Subsidy Plan for the Energy Saving Performance Guarantee Project, and the plan was entrusted to the Bureau of Energy to handle the promotion of energy-saving operations, and to assist in the implementation of the Energy Saving Performance Guarantee Project, in order to drive the development of energy technology services and improve the overall energy consumption efficiency.

1 Status of greenhouse gas inventory and assurance in the last two years

1- 1-1 Greenhouse Gas Inventory Information

Describe the greenhouse gas emissions in the last two years (metric tons CO 2 e), intensity (metric tons CO 2 e/NT$ million) and data coverage.

(1) The organizational boundary setting adopts the "operational control method." The organizational boundary for this year includes the Yunlin factory, the Changbin factory, and the Taipei office. The report boundary has been expanded to include categories 3 to 6, which are category 1 (stationary emission sources, mobile emission sources, fugitive emission sources, and process emission sources), category 2 (purchased electricity), category 3 (business travel), and category 4 (purchased products, waste disposal, and transportation). The report identifies the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions within its boundary. The greenhouse gases included are carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), nitrous oxide (N₂O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆), and nitrogen trifluoride (NF₃)—a total of seven types.

(2) For this greenhouse gas emissions inventory, the "emission factor method" was mainly adopted. The quantification method is activity data multiplied by the emission factor and global warming potential (hereinafter referred to as GWP), and all calculation results were converted into carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2 e), with tonnes as the unit. The source of the emission factor is the latest announcement of the "greenhouse gas emission factors" by the Ministry of the Environment, and the global warming potential (GWP) adopted the GWP of various greenhouse gases from the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (2021). In addition to the above-mentioned emission factor method, the mass balance method was also adopted to calculate refrigerants, fire extinguishers, welding rods, acetylene, and urea. Self-diffusion coefficients were adopted for waste; the power emission coefficient refers to the 2024 annual power emission coefficient announced by the Bureau of Energy in 2025; and the purchased product items refer to the product carbon footprint information network - carbon footprint database and Ecoinvent 3.12 coefficients.

Note 1: The denominator of the greenhouse gas emission intensity, "waste processing volume per tonne," includes volumes from incineration, stabilization, and physicochemical treatment, but excludes landfill volume.
Note 2: Emissions for categories 3-6 were not tallied for 2024.

Note 1: Direct emissions. Scope 1, i.e., emissions directly from sources owned or controlled by the Company, and emissions from indirect energy choices. Scope 2, i.e., indirect greenhouse gas emissions from input electricity, heat, or steam and other indirect emissions. Scope 3, i.e., emissions from company activities that are not indirect energy emissions, but originate from sources owned or controlled by other companies.
Note 2: The coverage of direct emissions and energy indirect emissions data shall be compiled per the timetable specified in the order stipulated in Paragraph 2, Article 10 of these Guidelines. Other indirect emissions information may be disclosed voluntarily.
Note 3: Greenhouse gas inventory standard: Greenhouse Gas Inventory Protocol (GHG Protocol) or International Organization for Standardization (ISO) ISO 14064 1.
Note 4: The intensity of GHG emissions can be calculated per unit of product/service or revenue, but at least the data calculated in terms of revenue (NT$ million) should be stated.

1-2 Greenhouse Gas Assurance Information

Describe the status of assurance in the last 2 years up to the date of publication of the annual report, including the scope of assurance, institutions for assurance, criteria of assurance, and opinions of assurance.

To be planned based on the timeline of the sustainable development roadmap, the parent company is expected to complete its own assurance disclosure in 2028, and the subsidiaries in the consolidated financial statements are expected to complete their assurance disclosure in 2029.

Note 1: It should be carried out in accordance with the timetable specified in the order stipulated in Paragraph 2, Article 10 of the Regulations. If the Company fails to obtain a complete greenhouse gas assurance opinion by the publication date of the annual report, it should indicate that "The complete assurance information will be disclosed in the sustainability report". If the Company does not prepare a sustainability report, it should indicate that "The complete assurance information will be disclosed in the Market Observation Post System" and disclose the complete assurance information in the annual report of the following year.
Note 2: The base year should be the year in which the inventory is completed based on the boundaries of the consolidated financial report. For example, in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 2, Article 10 of the Guidelines, companies with a capital of more than NT$10 billion should complete the 2024 consolidated financial report in 2025. Inventory, so the base year is 2024. If the company has completed the inventory of consolidated financial reports in advance, the earlier year can be used as the base year. In addition, the data in the base year can be calculated as the average of a single year or several years.

1-2 Greenhouse gas reduction goals, strategies and concrete action plans

Describe the greenhouse gas reduction base year and data, reduction goals, strategies, and concrete action plans and achievement of reduction goals.
Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction Project Due to the characteristics of the waste treatment industry, Sunny Friend's energy consumption primarily stems from waste incineration (78%), electricity (7%), and diesel (3%). Accordingly, short-term reduction strategies focus on lowering electricity and diesel usage, while long-term plans involve enhancing process and pollution prevention efficiency. These plans include evaluating process improvements and upgrading environmental protection measures for incinerators to meet air pollution control standards and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Company has set reduction targets, using 2025 as the base year, to achieve a 3% reduction in emission intensity by 2027 and a 5% reduction by 2030. (1) Electricity equipment management The Company began tracking power equipment for each department in 2024 and commissioned an energy technical service provider to conduct an evaluation. In 2025, it implemented an improvement plan. After implementing various energy-saving measures, it is estimated that approximately 576,037 kgCO2e of greenhouse gas emissions were reduced annually. The specific improvement measures are described as follows:
Improvement item 2025 improvement details
Improvement of lighting equipment A total of 265 T8 lighting fixtures were replaced with 36W LED lighting fixtures at the Chang-Bin plant, which is expected to reduce approximately 26,529 kgCO2e annually.
Improvement of air compressor system The curing process fixed-frequency air compressor at the Chang-Bin Plant was replaced with a variable-frequency air compressor, which is expected to save 10% of the equipment's electricity consumption, reducing CO2e emissions by approximately 31,142 kg.
The optimization of the air compressor pipeline at the second phase of the Chang-Bin incinerator plant has been completed, reducing pressure loss and improving equipment efficiency. The results have been outstanding, and the improvement are expected to save 33% of power consumption approximately 456,746 kgCO2e.
The Yunlin Plant evaluated air compressor operations and reduced the number of units in use to prevent energy waste, resulting in an annual reduction of approximately 61,620 kgCO2e.
Description: Description of the calculation method: Equipment energy consumption = Equipment power (kW) x Number of units x Operating hours; total energy savings = Power improvement equipment energy consumption - Post-improvement equipment energy consumption; total carbon reduction = Total energy savings x Carbon emission coefficient (the carbon emission coefficient is based on the latest coefficient announced by the Bureau of Energy, Ministry of Economic Affairs).

(2) Transportation routes and capacity planning

The Company and the professional waste disposal organizations it works with not only use a GPS monitoring system but also adopt the most suitable transportation routes and optimize capacity planning to reduce the distance waste is transported on roads, achieving the goal of reducing clearance costs while protecting the environment.

(3) Increasing local procurement ratios

The Company prioritizes local sourcing of raw materials. If raw materials of the same specifications and quality are available, we will prioritize sourcing them from nearby locations. This not only fosters good neighborly relations but also shortens the transportation time of raw materials. After receiving purchase orders, the Management Department prioritizes the economical delivery volume of raw material suppliers. By 2025, the local procurement ratio of Sunny Friend will be 61%, effectively reducing the energy consumption of raw material transportation and avoiding resource waste.

(4) Improvement of incineration process

The original design of the incinerator in Phase 1 of the Chang-Bin Plant cooled flue gas using cold water in the exhaust cooling room. Recognizing the significant waste of heat energy and water resources from this process, the plant opted to replace the original design with a combined waste heat boiler and power generation system. This effectively utilizes the flue gas's waste heat for heating or power generation for subsequent equipment. Conservative estimates project power generation of approximately 100 kWh/hour (about 816,000 kWh/year), with all generated power used on-site. This is expected to reduce CO2e emissions by approximately 387 tons. An application for this project was submitted on November 10, 2025, in accordance with relevant regulations, and the improvement project is anticipated to be implemented following application approval.

(5) Planning for the introduction of internal carbon pricing (ICP)

Apart from its efforts in optimizing the production process and saving energy with equipment, Sunny Friend also actively incorporates climate risks into its financial decision-making process. The Company conducted a preliminary internal carbon pricing study in 2025, combining input from senior management and external expert consultants to discuss and plan based on Sunny Friend's current situation and the industry's specific characteristics.

To ensure that the system effectively drives carbon reduction while considering operational resilience, the Company plans to conduct cross-departmental impact analysis and cost-benefit analyses subsequently. In the future, a phased approach is expected to be adopted to develop pricing models and carbon price application methods for each stage, tailored to industry characteristics and company objectives. This will aim to minimize operational impact and maximize carbon reduction, gradually strengthening the company's sustainability and competitiveness.

Note 1: It shall be processed in accordance with the schedule prescribed in Paragraph 2, Article 10 of these Guidelines.

Note 2: The base year should be the year in which the inventory is completed based on the boundaries of the consolidated financial report. For example, in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 2, Article 10 of the Guidelines, companies with a capital of more than NT$10 billion should complete the 2024 consolidated financial report in 2025. Inventory, so the base year is 2024. If the company has completed the inventory of consolidated financial reports in advance, the earlier year can be used as the base year. In addition, the data in the base year can be calculated as the average of a single year or several years.

II. Overview of Market, Manufacturing and Sales

(I) Market analysis

  1. Main service areas

The Company is the first environmental protection technology company specializing in waste disposal and incineration that becomes publicly traded. For more than thirty years since the official establishment of business, the Company has refined its capabilities in waste disposal and incineration, serving counties and cities around the country and the offshore islands. Currently, the main service coverage includes Taiwan,

168


Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu. The subsidiary, Beijing Ruentex, has obtained a license for the disposal of medical wastes and begun its operations in 2013, and it is currently serving Beijing City.

2. Market share

According to the statistics from the Resource Circulation Administration of the Environmental Protection Administration, there are 17 medical waste processing plants that have obtained an operating license in Taiwan, and the Company accounts for about 34% of the market share. Due to the increasingly stringent regulations, the output of medical waste also increases. The Company's Yuanchang Plant 1st plant and 3rd plant and the Phase 1 and Phase 2 incinerators in Changhua Coastal Industrial Park have operated smoothly throughout the year; The disposal business of business waste is facing new competition, and it is expected that the Company's overall market share in 2026 will stay the same.

3. Main sources of waste and garbage

The medical and business wastes mainly come from the long-term disposal contracts signed with the subsidiaries through reinvestment, franchisee operators and the public and private hospitals, medical institutes, clinics and organizations in the public and private sectors.

4. Future supply, demand and growth of the market

(1) Growing environmental awareness:

The awareness of environmental protection is a global trend. Due to the government's strong advocacy and the improvement of knowledge, the citizens have generally developed their environmental protection awareness. Therefore, the industry will be able to establish a positive image, and the market planning will also be better and the market scale will expand, making the acquisition of capital easier.

(2) Establishment and implementation of regulatory policies:

The environmental protection laws and regulations have been introduced and implemented one after another, and the requirements for business institutions have also been completed. Such business institutions will abide by the laws to process wastes through legal channels, helping the operations of those that comply with the laws. For the companies that do not meet the standards, they will also be encouraged to conduct an upgrade or retire from the market, making it a fair market competition. This is to prevent the vicious cycle of having bad companies driving good companies

169


out of the market, further protecting the operations of legitimate companies.

(3) Policy direction for recycling of resources:

In response to the social trends of resources sustainability and zero-waste, the domestic policy mainly focuses on "Reduction at the sources and recycling of resources". The policy advocates for green manufacturing, green consumption, reduction at the sources, resources recovery, reuse and recycling to effectively recycle resources and gradually achieve the goals of total recycling and zero-waste. Due to the global trends, the government's advocacy and the actual needs, the market for recycling and reuse of resources has reached 16.48 million tonnes per year. The waste solvents used in the high-tech industries and various types of cutting fluids used in all industries present an urgent need. In the future, the environmental protection industry will have more capital invested in the market segment of resources recovery and reuse.

(4) Reduction of business waste:

Due to the limited land resources and dense population of Taiwan, the reduction of business waste has been an important goal. Intermediate treatment by incineration is the most effective way to reduce the amount of waste, for example, solid waste, non-infectious biomedical waste, partial liquid waste, industrial waste liquid and others, and there is still a high demand for processing capacity.

(5) Disposal of various types of hazardous business waste from large-scale industrial activities:

The advancement of technologies and development of a variety of industries can generate many types of hazardous business waste. Heavy metal waste, special waste, soil remediation of polluted sites and others require solidification and landfill treatments.

According to the Ministry of Health and Welfare of the Executive Yuan, there are currently 468 hospitals, 23,800 clinics and a total of 170,659 hospital beds in medical institutions. Hospitals around Taiwan generated about 120,000 tonnes of garbage per year and about 39,000 tonnes of the total volume are hazardous medical waste which requires special treatment. To prevent secondary pollution, the incineration facilities for infectious medical wastes are required to pass the trial burns, and the installation of advanced air pollution and waste water treatments equipment is essential. Sunny Friend's Yunlin Plan 1 had already obtained a Class A incinerator operating license from the Yunlin County government in January 1997. Yunlin Plant

170


3 obtained its operating license in August 2017 and had begun its operations. Sunny Friend processes about 39 tonnes of waste per day, accounting for about 45% of the market's contracting and joint processing of infectious business waste.

  1. Competitive niche

(1) Vertical integration capabilities:

The Company has accumulated experience and nurtured talents for a long time. From the front-end of cleaning and transportation channel to the intermediate channel of processing facilities, the Company has completed the foundation and passed long-term tests. Currently, we are actively planning for the last-mile processing facilities. After the successful completion of landfills, the Company becomes the only environmental protection company in the country which displays a upstream, midstream and downstream integration.

(2) Strong management team:

Through years of hard work, the company has established strongholds in the northern, central and southern Taiwan and nurtured outstanding business talents and managerial personnel. The head company also has grown a strong planning team. Under the leadership of the chairman, the company surely will be able to understand the market dynamics and plan the company's future direction in time to meet all types of challenges.

  1. Factors favorable and unfavorable to the development

(1) Favorable factors

A. Growing environmental awareness:

The awareness of environmental protection is a global trend. Due to the government's strong advocacy and the improvement of knowledge, the citizens have generally developed their environmental protection awareness. Therefore, the industry will be able to establish a positive image, and the market planning will also be better and the market scale will expand, making the acquisition of capital easier.

B. Establishment and implementation of regulatory policies:

The environmental protection laws and regulations have been introduced and implemented one after another, and the requirements for business institutions have also been completed. Such business institutions will abide by the laws to process wastes through legal channels, helping the operations of those that comply with the laws. For the companies that do not meet the standards, they will also be encouraged to conduct an upgrade or retire from the market,

171


making it a fair market competition. This is to prevent the vicious cycle of having bad companies driving good companies out of the market, further protecting the operations of legitimate companies.

C. High-tech waste treatment greater than supply:

Taiwan's industrial structure has changed from agricultural and industrial to technology and service industries. The complex semi-conductor process and the constant improvement of industrial technology have made it necessary to use different chemicals or chemical composition in each process. As a result, the amount of waste has increased and the nature of waste has become more complex.

(2) Unfavorable factors

A. Citizens' rejection of the environmental protection industry:

Citizens generally do not accept the existence of the industry around their living space, believing that it could affect the quality of life or even affecting their physical health. The operators of the industry need to continuously communicate and explain or even give back to the community in response to the continuous protest by social groups. This can result in the large-scale increase in the operating cost, also making it harder to find proper sites for the construction of new plants.

B. New competitors to the market:

New technologies are constantly being developed and introduced to the market for the disposal of waste. More companies are entering the same market, directly affecting the supply and demand and causing the fluctuation in prices.

  1. Countermeasures

(1) Strong customer relationship:

At present, the Company's main service is in the disposal of infectious business waste. Since obtaining its license on January 13, 1997, the Company has been committed to provide the most comprehensive service for clients. The customer loyalty has always been high as they identify with the Company and are willing to accept the services provided. The large customer case will be the biggest advantage the Company has in the future market competition.

(2) Efficient waste clearing team:

The Company has established specialized Class A cleaning companies in northern, central and southern Taiwan by offering counseling to cleaning companies and holding management power through re-investment. Through continuous innovation and improvement, the Company has established a continuous logistics

172


network to complete the cleaning and transportation tasks on time. The channel coverage nationwide will be unmatched by other competitors.

(3) In-house intermediate processing equipment:

The Company's first incineration plant, since its inception in 1997, has been in operations for more than 27 years. The Company has accumulated rich processing capabilities and nurtured a group of outstanding technical personnel. The Company now has the capabilities in design, operation and maintenance. Equipment in Yunlin 1st Plant and 3rd plant has been operating properly.

(4) Vertical integration capabilities:

The Company has accumulated experience and nurtured talents for a long time. From the front-end of cleaning and transportation channel to the intermediate channel of processing facilities, the Company is the only environmental protection company in the country which displays an upstream, midstream and downstream integration.

(5) Strong management team:

Through years of hard work, the company has established strongholds in the north and south and nurtured outstanding business talents and managerial personnel. The head company also has grown a strong planning team. Under the leadership of the chairman, the company surely will be able to understand the market dynamics and plan the company's future direction in time to meet all types of challenges.

(6) Modernized information management:

Sunny Friend Group has been using information systems to manage work activities since it first commenced operation. The system was first designed by a software contractor and later taken over by an IT Department that the Company has assembled exclusively for this purpose. The information system is being used from clearing waste, incineration, bookkeeping, material management, reporting, analysis to the building of big data architecture to enable timely and efficient decision-making by the decision makers.

(7) Robust ISO14001 management:

To ensure the most efficient management, promote the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System, formulate environmental policies and continue improvement works.

Sunny Friend Group introduced the most advanced management concepts by

173


adopting the ISO14001 system, as good management practices yield the best competitiveness.

(8) Flexible strategic alliance and market interactions to minimize the occurrence of vicious price competition in the market.

(9) Maintain good relationships with the neighboring residents around the waste disposal plants:

The Company is mainly engaged in the disposal of medical and business wastes, and the processing facilities all comply with the laws and regulations to maintain the normal operations of the plants and equipment to prevent the occurrence of secondary pollution. The surrounding areas of the plants are regularly cleaned to maintain good relationships with the neighboring residents in the communities. The plant sites and the surrounding roads also undergo green landscaping and cleaning to reduce the chance of local resistance.

(II) Key uses and production process of main products

  1. Key purposes of main products

The Company is mainly engaged in the contracting of incineration of waste and general garbage. We use the most advanced Japanese-designed incinerators. There are rotary kiln incinerators and fluidized bed incinerators and they both adopt high-temperature incineration to achieve the goals of reducing capacity and volume and minimizing hazards.

(I) Impact of interest rate, exchange rate fluctuation and inflation on the Company's profit and loss and the future responsive measures:

The Company's infectious waste treatment and clean and transportation operations mainly serve the domestic market, so the receivables and payables are all denominated in NT$ and exchange rate fluctuations have no impact on the Company. The Company mainly uses own funds for its operations, and the they are allocated in short-term investments, certificate of deposits and demand deposits. Bank deposit rates have risen slightly in response to the central bank's interest rate hike, but bank deposit rates will remain low so the proportion of income from interest stays small. The Company has a sound financial structure, so the impact from changes in interest rates is not significant. Although bank lending rates have risen in recent years, inflation has slowed down slightly. In the future, the central bank will not raise the interest rate significantly, so changes in interest rate will not have much impact on the Company. If the interest rates experience a larger fluctuation in the future and the Company has the need for loans, the other financing tools in the capital market may be considered. The Company will also closely monitor the trends of interest rates and consider to borrow either at a fixed rate or floating rate to avoid the risk of interest rate fluctuations. The Company has not experienced significant impact on its profit and loss cause by inflation.

(II) The Company's policy regarding high-risk investments, highly leveraged investments, loans to other parties, endorsements, guarantees and derivatives transactions is the main reason contributing to its profits and losses and the response measures to be taken in the future:

(1) Based on its business philosophy emphasizing stability and prudence, the Company focuses on its specialized fields and does not become involved in high-risk and highly leveraged investments.

(2) The Company has formulated the "Operating Procedures for Endorsement Guarantee" and the "Operating Procedures for Loans to Others" as the reference for providing guarantee and loans to others. The loans can only be given to the subsidiaries.

(3) The Company has specified regulations regarding the trading of derivatives in its

190
