Review report of independent auditors

To: ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd.

Foreword

We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. as of March 31, 2022 and 2021 and the related statements of income, retained earnings, cash flows and notes (including the summary of major accounting policies) to the financial statements for the years then ended. These financial statements to be prepared in accordance with “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Insurance Enterprises” and the International Accounting Standards (IAS) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” that was recognized and announced with effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission are the responsibility of the company’s management. Our responsibility is to make a conclusion on these financial statements based on our review.

Scope

We conducted our review in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Standards (GAAS) No.65 “Review of Financial Statements.” Those standards require that we perform inquiries (mainly to the personnel in charge of finance and accounting matters), analytical procedures, and other review procedures. The scope of a review is apparently not to the extent of an audit; therefore, we would not be able to detect all identifiable matters through an audit, and we could not issue an audit opinion.

Conclusion

In our conclusion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. as of March 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Insurance Enterprises” and the International Accounting Standards (IAS) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” that was recognized and announced with effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

  • (1)Amendments to IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28 “Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures” – Assets sales or investment of investors and their associates or joint ventures

This plan is to handle the inconsistency between IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28 “Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures” regarding the loss of control by investing in associates or joint ventures at the cost of the subsidiary. According to IAS 28, the profit or loss amount should be eliminated in accordance with the downstream transaction when exchange non-monetary assets for the equity of the associates or joint ventures. According to IFRS 10, the entire profit and loss should be recognized at the time of losing the control over the subsidiary. This amendment restricts the aforementioned provisions of IAS 28. The profit or loss arising from the sales or investment of business assets that meet the definition in IFRS 3 shall be fully recognized.

11

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued) (Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

According to this amendment to IFRS 10, the sales or investment between the investors and associates or joint ventures for the subsidiary that does not meet the definition in IFRS 3, the profit or loss incurred shall be recognized for the amount that is not attributable to the investors.

(2)IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts”

IFRS 17 provides a comprehensive model of insurance contracts, including all accounting-related matters (recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure principles). The core of IFRS 17 is a general model. Under this model, the original recognition is based on the sum of the fulfillment cash flow and contractual service margin to measure the insurance contracts, of which, the fulfillment cash flows include:

  • A. Estimated value of future cash flows

  • B. Discount rate: reflect the adjustment to the time value of money and the financial risks (to the extent when financial risks are not included in the estimated value of future cash flows) related to the future cash flows; and

  • C. Adjustments to non-financial risks

The book amount of the insurance contract group at the end of each reporting period is the sum of the remaining coverage liabilities and the incurred claims liabilities.

In addition to the general model, it also provides:

  • A. Specific applicable methods (variable fee approach) for contracts with direct participation characteristics

  • B. Simplified method (premium allocation approach) for short-term contracts

Upon the initial application of the standards, enterprises adopted IFRS9 may re-designate and reclassify the financial assets that comply with the requirements of the standards. Enterprises are not required to re-prepare the comparison information to reflect the changes in the classification of such assets; the differences between the former carrying amount and the carrying amount on the date of initial application shall be recognized in the opening retained earnings or other equity as at the date of initial application. When an enterprise has restated its comparison information, the comparison information shal reflects the requirements of IFRS9 on such financial assets being affected. In addition, for financial assets derecognized during the comparison period after the date of initial application of the standards, enterprises may elect the applicable overlay approach based on the individual financial assets, as if such assets have been re-classified according to the redesignation requirements under the standards during the comparison period.

This standard was announced in May of 2017 and amended in June 2020. This amendment, except for having the effective date postponed for 2 years (that is, postponed from January 1, 2021 to January 1, 2023) in the transitional clause with additional exemptions provided; also, reducing the cost of adopting this standard by simplifying some regulations and amend some regulations to make some situations easier to interpret. This standard in effect will replace the transitional standard (that is, IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts”).

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

  • (3)Classification of liabilities as current or noncurrent (Amendments to IAS 1)

This is to amend the classification of liabilities as current or noncurrent in paragraphs 69 to 76 of IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements.”

  • (4)Disclosure Initiative – Accounting Policy (Amendments to IAS 1)

This amendment is to improve the disclosure of accounting policies in order to provide more useful information to investors and other main users of financial statements.

  • (5)Definition of Accounting Estimates (Amendments to IAS 8)

This amendment directly defines accounting estimates and makes other amendments to IAS 8 “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors” in order to help companies classify changes in accounting policies and accounting estimates.

  • (6) Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction (amendments to IAS 12)

The amendments restrict the scope of the exemption of recognition deferred tax in paragraphs 15 and 24 of IAS 12 — Income Taxes; therefore, the exemption does not apply to the same taxable amount upon initial recognition and the deductible temporary differences.

The aforementioned standards and explanations issued by IASB but not yet recognized by the FSC are applicable on the date determined by the FSC. The company is currently assessing the potential impact of the new/amended standards and explanations in (2) and is not yet able to reasonably estimate the impact of the aforementioned standards or interpretations on the company; however, the other new/amended standards and explanations have no significant impact on the company.

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1. Compliance Statement

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Insurance Enterprises” and IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” that was recognized and announced with effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

2. Basis of preparation

The financial statements are prepared on the basis of historical costs, except for financial instruments measured at fair value and the net defined benefit liabilities recognized by deducting the present values of defined benefit obligations from the fair value of plan assets. Unless otherwise specified, amounts in financial statements are expressed in thousand NT dollars.

13

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

3. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits, and time deposits or investments that are short-term, highly liquid, convertible to fixed amounts of cash at any time with little risk of value changes (including time deposits within 12 months of contractual period).

4. Transactions in foreign currencies

The Company’s financial statements are expressed in NT dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency. Transactions in foreign currencies are converted to the functional currency based on the exchange rate on the transaction date. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items in foreign currencies are converted at the closing exchange rate of that day; non-monetary items in foreign currencies measured at fair value are converted at the exchange rate on the day that the fair value is determined; non-monetary items in foreign currencies measured at historical cost are converted at the exchange rate of the transaction day.

Except for the following, the exchange differences arising from the delivery or conversion of monetary items are recognized as gains or losses of the current period:

  • (1) If the exchange differences from foreign currencies borrowed to obtain qualified assets are regarded as adjustments to interest costs, becoming part of the borrowing costs, they are capitalized as the costs of the assets.

  • (2) Foreign currencies applicable to IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” are treated in accordance with the accounting policies of financial instruments.

  • (3) For monetary items that form part of the reporting entity’s net investment in foreign institutions, the exchange differences resulting from initial recognition are recognized as other comprehensive income, and reclassified from equity to gains and losses when the net investment is disposed.

When the profits and losses of non-monetary items are recognized as other comprehensive income, any components of the conversion of the profits and losses are recognized as other comprehensive income. When the profits and losses of non-monetary items are recognized as gains and losses, any components of the conversion of the profits and losses are recognized as gains and losses.

5. Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual terms of the financial instrument.

Financial assets and financial liabilities applicable to IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” are measured at fair value on initial recognition, and are directly attributable to the transaction cost of acquisition or issuance of the financial assets and financial liabilities (except for those measured at fair value through profit or loss), to be deducted from or added to the fair values of the financial assets and financial liabilities.

  • (1) Recognition and measurement of financial assets

All the recognition and delisting of financial assets through the Company’s normal trade practice are accounted for on the transaction day.

14

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

The Company classifies financial assets into the following categories: those subsequently measured at amortized cost, those measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, and those measured at fair value through profit or loss, based on the following features:

  • A. Operating models

  • B. Contractual cash flows

Financial assets at amortized cost

Financial assets that meet the following two conditions are measured at amortized cost and listed on the balance sheet as financial assets and other assets measured at accounts receivable and amortized cost:

  • A. Operating models: holding financial assets to collect contractual cash flows

  • B. Contractual cash flows: cash flows entirely for paying principals and interests on the principals in circulation

Such financial assets (excluding those involved in hedging) are subsequently measured at amortized cost [the amount measured on initial recognition, minus the principal paid, plus or minus the accumulated amortization of the difference between the original amount and the maturity amount (using the effective interest method), and adjustment of allowance for losses]. Upon derecognition, through amortization or recognition of impaired profits or losses, the profits or losses are recognized as gains and losses.

The interests calculated by the effective interest method (multiplying the effective interest rate by the total book value of the financial asset) or based on following conditions are recognized as gains and losses:

  • A. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, it is calculated as the credit-adjusted effective interest rate multiplied by the amortized cost.

  • B. For financial assets other than the aforementioned, but subsequently become credit impairment, it is calculated as the effective interest rate multiplied by the amortized cost.

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

Financial assets that meet the following two conditions are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, and are listed on the balance sheet as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income:

  • A. Operating model: collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets.

  • B. Contractual cash flows: cash flows entirely for paying principals and interests on the principals in circulation

15

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued) (Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

Recognition of gains and losses related to such financial assets are explained as follows:

  • A. Before derecognition or reclassification, except for impaired profits or losses and foreign exchange profits or losses that are recognized as gains and losses, the profits and losses of the financial assets are recognized as other comprehensive income.

  • B. Upon derecognition, the cumulative profits or losses previously recognized as other comprehensive income are reclassified from equity to gains or losses for adjustment.

  • C. The interests calculated by the effective interest method (multiplying the effective interest rate by the total book value of the financial asset) or based on following conditions are recognized as gains and losses:

  • (a) For POCI financial assets, it is calculated as the credit-adjusted effective interest rate multiplied by the amortized cost.

  • (b) For financial assets other than the aforementioned, but subsequently become credit impairment, it is calculated as the effective interest rate multiplied by the amortized cost.

In addition, for equity instruments applicable for IFRS 9 and are neither held for trading, nor recognized as contingent consideration by the acquirer in a merger under IFRS 3, and on initial recognition, it is optional (irrevocably) to list its subsequent fair value changes as other comprehensive income. The amount listed as other comprehensive income shall not subsequently be transferred to gains and loss (when disposing such equity instruments, the cumulative amount listed as other equity are directly transferred to retained earnings), and shall be listed on the balance sheet as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. Dividends from investments are recognized as gains or losses, unless the dividends clearly represent part of the recovery of investment costs.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Except for the measurement by amortized cost under specific conditions as mentioned above or at fair value through other comprehensive income, financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss, and are listed on the balance sheet as financial assets and accounts receivable measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The profits or losses generated from remeasurement of such financial assets measured at fair value are recognized as gains and losses, whose profits or losses include any and all dividends or interests generated from the financial assets.

(2) Impairment of financial assets

The Company’s debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets measured at amortized cost are recognized as expected credit losses to measure allowance for losses. For the debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the allowance for losses is recognized as other comprehensive income, without reducing the book value of the investment.

16

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

The Company measures expected credit losses to reflect the following:

  • A. unbiased and probability-weighted amounts determined by evaluating all possible outcomes.

  • B. Time value of money

  • C. Reasonable and supportable information related to past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions (that can be obtained without excessive costs or investment on the balance sheet date)

Measurement of allowance for losses is explained as follows:

  • A. It is measured by the amount of 12-month expected credit losses: including financial assets whose credit risk has not significantly increased since initial recognition, or those that are determined to be low in credit risk at the balance sheet date. In addition, it also includes the allowance for losses which are measured at lifetime expected credit losses in the duration of previous financial reports, but on the current balance sheet day no longer meets the criteria for a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition.

  • B. Measurement of lifetime expected credit losses: including financial assets with credit risk significantly increased since initial recognition, or POCI financial assets.

  • C. For accounts receivable or contract assets arising from transactions under IFRS 15, the Company uses lifetime expected credit losses to measure allowance for losses.

  • D. For lease receivables arising from transactions under IFRS 16, the Company uses lifetime expected credit losses to measure allowance for losses.

In addition to the above assessments, the Company has also provided adequate allowance for bad debts in accordance with the “Guidelines for Handling Assessment of Assets, Overdue and Non-Performing Loans and Bad Debts by Insurance Enterprises,” and the amount shall not be lower than the following standards: (1) 0.5% of the 1st type loan assets after deducting from life insurance loans, advanced premiums, and the balance of claims to government agencies, and 2%, 10%, 50%, respectively, of the balances of claims of loan assets from 2nd to 5th types (attention required, recovery expected, recovery difficult, and recovery hopeless), as well as the total of all the balances. 2. 1% of the total of the 1st to 5th types of loan assets after deducting from life insurance loans, advanced premiums and the balance of claims to government agencies. 3. Overdue and non-performing loans that have been reasonably assessed as free of secured claims. 4. If the sum of the minimum allowances for bad debts assessed in accordance with the criteria stated above in the 1st to 3rd subparagraphs is lower than the amount required by generally accepted accounting principles, the latter shall prevail. If the competent authority requires that the allowance for bad debts of specific loan assets be increased in accordance with its standards and deadlines in order to strengthen the capacity for losses of the specific loan assets, the Company shall comply.

On each balance sheet day, the Company compares the changes in the default risk of financial instruments from the initial recognition day, in order to assess whether the credit risk of the financial instruments has increased significantly after the initial recognition. For further information about the credit risks, please see Note 7.

17

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

  • (3) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company’s financial assets are derecognized when one of the following conditions is met:

  • A. The contractual rights from the cash flows of financial assets are terminated.

  • B. The financial assets have been transferred and almost all the risks and rewards from the ownership of the assets have been transferred to others.

  • C. Almost all risks and rewards of asset ownership have neither been transferred nor retained, but control of the assets has been transferred.

When a financial asset is derecognized as a whole, the difference between its book value and the received or receivable consideration plus any cumulative profits or losses recognized as other comprehensive income is recognized as gains and loss.

  • (4) Financial liabilities and equity instruments

Classification of liabilities or equity

The liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as financial liabilities or equity based on the substance of the contractual agreement and the definitions of financial liabilities and equity instruments.

Equity instruments

The Company’s equity instruments refer to any contract with remaining equity after deducting all liabilities from assets. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized with the amount received deducting the cost of direct issuance.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities applicable to IFRS 9 are classified on initial recognition as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities at amortized cost.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated to be measured at fair value through profit or loss.

When one of the following conditions is met, financial liabilities are classified as held for trading:

  • A. The main purpose of acquisition is to sell them in a short time;

  • B. on initial recognition, it is a part of the portfolio of identifiable financial instruments under merger management, and there is evidence that the portfolio is to be operated for short-term profits in the near future; or

  • C. Derivative instruments (except for financial guarantee contracts or designated derivatives that are effective hedging instruments).

18

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

For a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, the overall hybrid (combined) contract can be designated as a financial liability measured at fair value through profit and loss; when one of the following factors is met to provide more relevant information, the hybrid contract can be designated on initial recognition as measured at fair value through profit and loss:

  • A. The designation can eliminate or significantly reduce inconsistencies in measurement or recognition; or

  • B. A group of financial liabilities or a group of financial assets and financial liabilities are managed and evaluated on the fair value basis, based on written risk management or investment strategies, and the information on the investment portfolio provided to the management within the consolidated company is also based on fair value.

The profits or losses out of remeasurement of such financial liabilities are recognized as gains and losses, including any interests paid for the financial liabilities.

Financial liabilities measured at mortized cost

Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost include payables and lease liabilities, which are measured by the effective interest method after initial recognition. When financial liabilities are derecognized and amortized by the effective interest method, the related profit or loss and amortization are recognized as gains and losses.

The calculation of the amortized cost considers the discount or premium at the time of acquisition and transaction costs.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when its obligation is discharged, cancelled or invalidated.

When the Company and creditors exchange debt instruments with materially different terms, or make major changes to all or part of the terms of existing financial liabilities (whether or not due to financial difficulties), the original liabilities are derecognized and new ones recognized, and when the financial liabilities are derecognized, the difference between their book values and the total considerations paid or payable (including transferred non-cash assets or liabilities assumed) is recognized as gains and losses.

(5) Offset of financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and financial liabilities can be offset and listed on the balance sheet as a net amount only when the recognized amount currently has legal exercise rights of mutual offsetting and is intended to settle on a net amount or to realize assets and liquidate liabilities at the same time.

19

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

(6) Derivative instruments

The derivative instruments signed by the Company include forward foreign exchange contracts and exchange contracts, mainly for managing the risk of changes in exchange rates. The initial recognition and subsequent measurement of such derivatives are based on fair value, and when the fair value is positive, the derivatives are recognized as assets, otherwise recognized as liabilities.

(7) Overlay approach for financial assets

When the Company applied IFRS 9 for the first time, the overlay approach described in IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts” was adopted, and for the designated financial assets, an amount was reclassified between gains and losses and other comprehensive income, making the gains and losses of the designated assets at the closing day of the reporting period equal to the gains and losses of such financial assets if designated to comply with IAS 39. Accordingly, the reclassified amount is the difference between the following two items:

  • A. Gains and losses of the designated financial assets applicable to IFRS 9; and

  • B. Gains and losses of such financial assets if designated to comply with IAS 39.

A financial asset meets the specific requirements of the overlay approach only when the following conditions are met:

  • A. The financial asset is applicable to IFRS 9 through gains and losses measured at fair value, but if IAS 39 is applied, it will not be measured at fair value through gains or losses as a whole; and

  • B. The financial asset is not held for activities linked to contracts within the scope of IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts.”

Thereafter, a financial asset is designated as qualified for overlay approach only when one of the following conditions is met:

  • A. The asset is initially recognized; or

  • B. The asset is newly qualified for being held for activities linked to the contract within the scope of the IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts,” but previously did not meet the requirements.

The overlay approach should continue to be applied to the designated financial asset until it is derecognized; however, when the financial asset no longer meets the requirements of being held for activities linked to contracts within the scope of IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts,” it should be de-designated; also, on the beginning day of any annual period, designations of financial assets to the overlay approach may all be ceased, and when such an act occurs, IAS 8 “Accounting Policy Changes” should be applied.

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

6. Measurement at fair value

Fair value refers to the price under which an amount is received from selling an asset or paid for transferring a liability in an orderly transaction among market participants on the measurement day. The measurement of fair value assumes that the sale of assets or transfer of liabilities takes place in one of the following markets:

(1) The main market for such assets or liabilities, or

(2) If there is no such a main market, the most favorable market shall apply.

The main market or the most favorable market must be accessible by the market participants.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is assumed by the market participants to price the asset or liability, and it is assumed that the market participants are acting in their best economic interests.

The measurement at fair value of a non-financial asset takes into account the efficacy that the buyer will take the asset to its highest and best use or the seller will sell the asset to the counterpart who will take the asset to its highest and best use, in order to generate economic benefits.

The Company adopts evaluation techniques which allow collection of appropriate and sufficient information under relevant circumstances so as to measure fair values, as well as maximize the use of observable input values and minimize the use of unobservable input values.

7. Property, plant, and equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are recognized based on the acquisition costs, and are listed after deducting accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. The said costs include the costs of dismantling and removing the property, plant and equipment and restoring the venue, as well as the necessary interests incurred out of unfinished projects. Significant components of the property, plant, and equipment are depreciated separately. Significant components of the property, plant and equipment that need to be periodically replaced are treated as individual assets, recognized based on their individual service life and depreciated separately. The book value of the replacement cost is derecognized in accordance with IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment.” A major maintenance cost qualified for recognition is regarded as replacement cost and recognized as part of the book value of the equipment, while other repair and maintenance expenses are recognized as gains and losses.

Depreciation of the following assets is accrued using the straight-line method, based on the estimated service life:

Buildings and structures 5–50 years Miscellaneous equipment 5 years

21

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

The property, plant and equipment or any of its significant components after initial recognition that are disposed of or not expected to generate inflow of economic benefits from future use or disposal are derecognized into gains and losses.

The residual value, service life and depreciation method of the property, plant and equipment are assessed at the end of each fiscal year, and if the expected value is different from the previous estimate, the change is regarded as a change in accounting estimates.

8. Investment property

The company’s own investment property is measured at the original cost, including the acquisition cost. The book value of investment property includes the cost of repairing or adding new investment to the property if only the cost is recognizable; however, the maintenance expenses incurred from day to day are not regarded as part of the cost. After initial recognition, the investment property, except for being qualified as a non-current asset held for sale (or included in the disposal group of being held for sale) according to IFRS 5 “Non-current Assets held for Sale and Discontinued Operations,” the measurement of investment property is based on the cost model in accordance with IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment”; however, if it is held by the lessee as a right-of-use asset and regarded as not being held for sale according to IFRS 5, the stipulations of IFRS 16 are applied.

Depreciation of the following assets is accrued using the straight-line method, based on the estimated service life:

Buildings and structures 30–50 years

Investment property is derecognized into gains and losses when it is disposed of or will no longer be used and economic benefits out of future disposal are not expected.

Assets are transferred into or out of investment property based on their actual use.

When a property either meets or no longer meets the definition of investment property and evidence shows change of use, the property is either transferred into or out of investment property, accordingly.

9. Leases

On the execution date, a contract is assessed whether it is attributed to, or includes, leasing. If a contract has transferred control of use of identified assets for a period of time in exchange for consideration, it is (or includes) a lease. Whether a contract has transferred control of use of identified assets for a period of time is determined on the basis of the following two factors over the entire period of use:

  • (1) Obtaining the right to almost all economic benefits from the use of the identified assets; and

  • (2) The right to direct the use of the identified assets.

22

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

For a contract that is attributed to (or includes) a lease, the lease components in the contract are regarded as individual ones and are treated separately from the non-lease components. For a contract that includes one lease component and one or more additional lease or nonlease components, the consideration is allocated to the lease components, based on the relative stand-alone price of each lease component and the aggregate of stand-alone prices of the non-lease components. The relative stand-alone prices of lease and non-lease components are determined on the basis of the prices charged by the lesser (or similar suppliers) separately for the components (or similar components). If the observable standalone price is not readily available, the maximized observable information is used to estimate the stand-alone price.

The Company as a lessee

In addition to compliance and selection of short-term leases or leases of low-value target assets, when the Company is the lessee of the lease contract, all the leases are recognized using the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

The lease liabilities are measured at present value of the lease payment not yet paid on the commencement date. If the lease implied interest rate is easy to determine, the lease payment is discounted at the said implied interest rate. If it is not, the interest rate for the lessee’s incremental borrowing is used. On the commencement date, the lease payments included in the lease liabilities include the following due payments related to the right-to-use assets during the lease period but not yet paid on that date:

  • (1) Fixed payments (including substantive fixed payments), minus any collectable lease incentives;

  • (2) Lease payments that vary depending on changes in an index or rate (initial measurement by the index or rate on the commencement date);

  • (3) The amount expected to be paid by the lessee under the residual value guarantee;

  • (4) The price of exercising the purchase option, if exercising the option is reasonably assured; and

  • (5) The penalty payable for the termination of the lease, if in the lease period it shows that the lessee will exercise the option to terminate the lease.

After the commencement date, the lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost, and the effective interest rate method is used to increases the book value of the lease liabilities to reflect the interests on lease liabilities; fulfilled lease payments reduce the book value of lease liabilities.

On the commencement date, the right-of-use asset is measured by the costs, which include:

  • (1) The amount from initial measurement of the lease liabilities;

  • (2) Any lease payments paid on or before the commencement date, minus any lease incentives received;

  • (3) Any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and

  • (4) The estimated cost for the lessee to dismantle and remove the target asset and restore the venue, or restore the target asset to the state required by the lease terms and conditions.

23

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

The right-of-use asset is subsequently measured by deducting the accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss from the cost, i.e. using the cost model to measure the right-of-use asset.

If the ownership of the target asset is transferred to the Company, or if the cost of the rightof-use asset reflects that the company will exercise the purchase option, when the lease period expires, the right-of-use asset is depreciated from the commencement date till the end of the service life of the target asset. Otherwise, the right-of-use asset is depreciated from the commencement date till the end of the service life of the right-of-use asset or till the expiration of the lease period, whichever is earlier.

The Company applies IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets” to determine whether the right-of-use asset is impaired and deal with any identified impairment losses accordingly.

In addition to compliance and selection of short-term leases or leases of low-value target assets, the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are listed in the balance sheet, and the leaserelated depreciation and interests are listed in the consolidated income statement.

For short-term leases and leases of low-value target assets, the lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis or another systematic basis during the lease period.

The Company as a lesser

The leases are classified into operating and financial ones on the date of contract establishment. A lease transferring almost all the risks and rewards attached to the ownership of the target asset is classified as a financial lease; otherwise, as an operating lease. On the commencement date, the assets held under the financial leases are listed in the balance sheet as financial lease payments receivable based on the net lease investment.

For contracts including lease and non-lease components, the consideration in the contract is allocated in accordance with IFRS 15.

The lease payments out of operating leases are recognized as rental income on a straight-line basis or another systematic basis. Variable lease payments of operating leases that are not dependent on a certain index or rate are recognized as rental income when they occur.

10. Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognized at cost. The cost of an intangible asset acquired through a merger is the fair value on the acquisition date. An intangible asset after being initially recognized has its book value based on its cost minus accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. An internally generated intangible asset not qualified for recognition is not capitalized; instead, it is recognized as gains and losses when it occurs.

The service life of intangible assets is assessed as limited.

24

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

The intangible asset with a limited service life is amortized over its service life, and an impairment test is performed when a sign of impairment appears. The amortization period and amortization method of intangible assets with limited service life are reviewed at least at the end of each fiscal year. If the estimated service life of an asset is different from the previous estimate or the expected pattern of future economic benefit consumption has changed, the amortization method or amortization period are adjusted and considered as changes in accounting estimates.

The profit or loss arising from derecognition of intangible assets is recognized as gains and losses.

11. Impairment of non-financial assets

On the closing date of each reporting period, assets applicable to IAS 36 are assessed for signs of impairment. If an asset has signs of impairment or is scheduled for an annual impairment test, the asset or the cash-generating unit of the asset is the test target. If the book value of the tested asset or its cash-generating unit is greater than its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized. The recoverable amount is the net fair value or use value, whichever is greater.

At the end of each reporting period, assets other than goodwill are assessed for signs that the impairment loss previously recognized is reduced or no longer exists. If such signs appear, the recoverable amount of the asset or its cash-generating unit is assessed. If the recoverable amount increases due to changes in the estimated service potential of the asset, the impairment loss is reversed. However, if the book value after the reversal does not exceed the value before the impairment loss was recognized, the accrued depreciation or amortization is deducted from the book value.

The impairment loss and the number of reversals of continuing operations are recognized as gains and losses.

12. Segmentation requirements for specific assets

The Company’s business of compulsory automobile liability insurance (hereinafter referred to as the Insurance) is based on Article 4 of the “Regulations for the Accounting Arrangement and Procedure of Submitting Business and Financial Reports of Compulsory Automobile Liability Insurance” stipulated in Article 47, Paragraph 3 of the “Compulsory Automobile Liability Insurance Act” for the insurance-related accounting.

The special reserve fund for the Insurance in accordance with Article 5 of the “Regulations for the Management of the Various Reserves for Compulsory Automobile Liability Insurance” is used for purchase of treasury bills or time deposits in financial institutions. However, funds approved by the competent authority may be used to purchase the following domestic securities:

If the total amount of unearned premium reserve and claims reserve of the Insurance is less than 30% of the retained pure premiums earned that has been certified by a CPA in the most recent period, the funds held for the Insurance shall be fully used for demand deposits in financial institutions.

In accordance with Article 11 of the “Regulations for the Management of the Various Reserves for Compulsory Automobile Liability Insurance,” when the property insurance business ceases to operate or ceases to deal with the aforementioned insurance, the various reserves of such insurance shall be transferred and merged into the various reserves of other insurers undertaking such insurance. If there is no other insurer to undertake such insurance, and the liability for the Insurance is over and the special reserve has a positive balance, the asset corresponding to the special reserve shall be transferred to the Motor Vehicle Accident Compensation Fund.

When the property insurance business is ordered to suspend operations for liquidation, or ordered to dissolve, or its license for the Insurance is revoked, if no other insurer undertakes the Insurance, and the liability for the Insurance is over and the special reserve has a positive balance, the asset corresponding to the special reserve shall be transferred to the Motor Vehicle Accident Compensation Fund.

13.Classification of insurance contracts

An insurance contract refers to an agreement in which the insurer accepts the transfer of significant insurance risks from the policyholder, and agrees to compensate the policyholder when an uncertain event (insurance event) occurs in the future and causes damage to the policyholder. The significant insurance risks refer to the occurrence of any insurance event that causes the Company to pay

26

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

significant amounts of additional benefits.

An insurance contract with a financial product nature refers to a contract that transfers significant financial risks. The financial risk refers to the risk that one or more specific interest rates, financial product prices, commodity prices, exchange rates, price indices, rate indices, credit ratings, credit indices or other variables may change in the future. If any of the above variables is non-financial, it is not regarded as held by a party to the contract.

An insurance policy that meets the definition of an insurance contract at initial judgment remains an insurance contract before all its rights and obligations disappear or expire, even if the insurance risks it undertakes during the policy period has been significantly reduced. However, if an insurance contract with a financial product nature transfers significant insurance risks to the Company after its renewal, it is reclassified as an insurance contract.

14. Insurance liability

The insurance liability reserve provided for insurance contracts is based on the “Regulations on Insurance Companies Various Reserves,” “Regulations for the Management of the Various Reserves for Compulsory Automobile Liability Insurance,” “Risk Spreading Mechanism of Residential Earthquake Insurance,” “Regulations on Property Insurance Companies Various Reserves for Energy Insurance,” “Property Insurance Companies Reserves for Commercial Earthquake Insurance and Typhoon Flood Insurance,” and “Notes on Strengthening Property Insurance Companies Reserves for Natural Disaster Insurances (Commercial Earthquake Insurance and Typhoon Flood Insurance),” and certified by an FSC-licensed actuary. The insurance liability reserves are provided as follows: (1) Unearned premium reserve

For valid contracts not yet expired or underwriting risks not yet terminated during the insurance period, the unearned premium reserve is set aside based on calculated unexpired risks of individual insurances.

(2) Loss reserve

The loss reserve is calculated based on the insurance types and past claims experience and expenses by actuarial principles, and provided in accordance with the reported but not settled (outstanding loss) and unreported claims, while the outstanding loss are calculated on a case-by-case basis by the insurance types.

(3) Special reserves

Special reserves are divided into “Special Reserves for catastrophic event” and “Special Reserves for fluctuation of risk,” and in accordance with IAS 12 “Income Taxes,” the annually added provisions are deducted by the income taxes and listed in the special surplus reserve under equity. The amount to be written down or recovered as required by statutory regulations and deducted by income tax in accordance with IAS 12 can be carried out from the appropriated retained earnings of the special surplus reserve under equity.

27

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

On January 1, 2013, the special reserves initially set aside under insurance liabilities, including special reserves for catastrophic event and special reserves for fluctuation of risk for insurance types other than compulsory automobile liability insurance, nuclear energy insurance, policy-based basic residential earthquake insurance, commercial earthquake insurance, and typhoon flood insurance , have the highest priority to supplement the special reserves for catastrophic event and special reserves for fluctuation of risk to full level, listed under liabilities, and in accordance with IAS 12, the special reserves for catastrophic event and special reserves for fluctuation of risk of other insurance types are deducted by income taxes and listed in the special surplus reserve under equity.

Special reserves for catastrophic event

The reserve for each insurance type is set aside in accordance with the ratio of special reserve for catastrophic event as stipulated by the competent authority.

For an accident qualified for the major disaster conditions issued by the authority, where the total amount of individual company’s accumulated retained claims for each insurance type amounts to $30,000, and the total amount of the overall property insurance industry’s claims payable for each insurance type exceeds $2,000,000, the claims can be written down from the special reserve for the catastrophic event.

Catastrophic event special reserves for commercial earthquake insurance and typhoon flood insurance provided for more than 30 years can be withdrawn; catastrophic event reserves for other insurance types provided for more than 15 years can have a withdrawal mechanism established by an actuary and sent to the competent authority for reference.

Special reserves for fluctuation of risk

When the balance of the actual indemnity of an insurance written down from the insurance’s catastrophic event special reserve exceeds the expected indemnity, if it is a commercial earthquake insurance or a typhoon flood insurance, a special reserve for fluctuation of risk equal to 75% of the difference is set aside, and for the other insurance types, the special reserve is 15% of the difference.

When the balance of the actual indemnity of an insurance written down from its special reserve for catastrophic event exceeds the expected indemnity, the excess may be written down from the special reserve for fluctuation of risk. If the special reserve for fluctuation of risk is insufficient to write down the indemnity, special reserves for fluctuation of risk provided for other insurance types may be used for the write-down, and the insurance types as well as the amounts of the substitute write-down should comply with relevant regulations set by the competent authority and sent to the authority for reference.

When the accumulated special reserve for the fluctuation of risk in commercial earthquake insurance exceeds 18 times its current year’s retained premiums earned, or such a reserve for the typhoon flood insurance exceeds 8 times its current year’s retained premiums earned, or such a reserve for the accident insurance or the health insurance exceeds 30% of its current year’s retained premiums earned, or such a reserve for other type insurance exceeds 30% of its current year’s retained earned premium, the excess is withdrawn.

(5) Policy reserve

The minimum Policy reserve of a health insurance with a period of more than one year is regularly revised on an annual basis. The Policy reserve for a health insurance with special features is determined by the competent authority.

15. Liability adequacy test

In accordance with Article 24-1 of the “Regulations on Insurance Companies Various Reserves” to test an insurance contract for its liability adequacy required by IFRS 4, the insurance’s future cash flow is assessed based on the current information on each balance sheet date to test the adequacy of recognized insurance liabilities, and a reserve for the inadequacy is provided based on the principle of actuarial practice.

16. Treasury stock

Treasury stocks are recognized at the acquisition cost and listed as a deduction of equity. The trading spread of treasury stocks is recognized under equity.

17. Share-based payment transactions

The cost of stock-based payment transactions between the Company and employees for equity delivery is measured at fair value of the equity instrument on the date of grant, and the fair value is measured by an appropriate pricing model. The date that the subscription price and the number of shares are confirmed is the grant date, on which the expenses are recognized at the fair value of the equity instruments, and the equity is increased accordingly.

18. Insurance premium revenues and acquisition costs

The insurance premium revenues of the direct underwriting business are recognized based on all the insurance policies undertaken and approved in the current period; the ceded-in reinsurance premium revenues are regularly booked on the bill arrival date, and on the balance sheet date the unreached reinsurance premium revenues are assessed with a reasonable and systematic method. The related acquisition costs (such as commission expenses, agency fees, handling fees and reinsurance commissions) are recognized in the same period without being deferred.

The unearned premium reserve is set aside for valid insurance contracts not expired or with undertaking risks not yet terminated during the insurance period, and the unearned premiums are calculated based on the unexpired risks of individual insurances, for which the reserves are set aside by the insurance categories.

The unearned premium reserve for the compulsory automobile liability insurance is set aside in accordance with the provisions of the “Regulations for the Various Reserves for Compulsory Automobile Liability Insurance.”

29

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

The unearned premium reserve for the residential earthquake insurance is set aside in accordance with the “Enforcement Rules for the Risk Spreading Mechanism of Residential Earthquake Insurance.”

The unearned premium reserve for the nuclear energy insurance is set aside in accordance with the “Regulations on Property Insurance Companies Various Reserves for Energy Insurance” (Jinguanbaocai Zi No. 10102517091).

Unless otherwise stipulated by laws, provision for the unearned premium reserve is decided by an actuary based on the insurance attributes, and the amount (no change permitted unless approved by the competent authority) is certified by a certified actuary.

Taxes related to insurance business incomes are recognized on an accrual basis in accordance with the laws of value-added taxes, non-value-added taxes and stamp taxes.

19. Costs of insurance claims

Insurance claims of direct underwriting are recognized based on the reported and settled claims (including indemnity expense) incurred and accepted in the current period, and if the claims department has determined the amount of the claims while the accounting and financial department has not yet performed the payment procedure, or if the claims department has not yet determined the amount of the claims, the claims are estimated according to actual data on a case-by-case basis by insurance category, and recognized as a net change in reserve for RBNS claims.

The reinsurance claims of ceded-in reinsurance are booked on the bill arrival date, and on the balance sheet date, unreached reinsurance claims are estimated with a reasonable and systematic method and recognized as a net change in the claims reserve.

Unreported insurance claims of ceded-in reinsurance and direct underwriting are calculated based on past claims experience and expenses by the insurance type, in accordance with actuarial principles, and are recognized as a net change in the reserve for unreported claims.

The claims recoverable from reinsurers (including claim expenses) of a ceded reinsurance contract, if already paid, are recognized as claims recovered from reinsurers; if they are Outstanding loss or unreported (including claim expenses), they are recognized as a net change in the Loss reserve.

Claims reserve for the compulsory automobile liability insurance is set aside in accordance with the “Regulations for the Management of the Various Reserves for Compulsory Automobile Liability Insurance.”

30

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

Claims reserve for the residential earthquake insurance is set aside in accordance with the “Risk Spreading Mechanism of Residential Earthquake Insurance.”

Claims reserve for the nuclear energy insurance is set aside in accordance with the “Regulations on Property Insurance Companies Various Reserves for Energy Insurance” (Jinguanbaocai Zi No. 10102517091).

20. Undertaking remnants and subrogation rights

The remnants of the direct underwriting business that are accepted by law as a result of the claims settlement are recognized at fair value; for the right of recovery of the equity of an underwriting object obtained by law, if the actual recovery situation is clear (likely future inflow of economic benefits) and the amount can be reliably measured, it is recognized.

21. Reinsurance

In order to limit the amount of losses that may be caused by certain risk exposure events, the Company operates the reinsurance business in accordance with the business needs and relevant insurance laws and regulations. For the ceded reinsurance, the Company shall not refuse to perform its obligations to the insured on the grounds that the reinsurer has failed to perform its obligations.

The ceded reinsurance business is recognized as reinsurance expenses by ceded reinsurance contracts. Its financial report includes considerations for the deadline and should be consistent with the premium revenues. On the balance sheet date, unreached reinsurance expenses are estimated with a reasonable and systematic method. Its related income (e.g. reinsurance commission income) are recognized in the same period. The relevant reinsurance gains and losses are not deferred.

Reinsurance reserves include: ceded unearned premium reserve, ceded Claims reserve, ceded policy reserve, ceded premium deficiency reserve, and ceded liabilities adequacy reserve, which are the rights to the reinsurer in accordance with the “Regulations on Insurance Companies Various Reserves” and the reinsurance contracts.

The Company’s rights to the reinsurer are reinsurance contract assets, including reinsurance reserve assets, claims recoverable from reinsurers, and net due from reinsurers and ceding companies, which are regularly assessed to determine whether they have been impaired or cannot be recovered. When objective evidence shows that events that occurred after the initial recognition of the reinsurance contract assets may make it impossible to recover all of the receivables specified in the contract, and the impact on the amounts recoverable from the reinsurer can be reliably measured, the portion of the recoverable amounts less than the book value of the reinsurance contract assets is recognized as impairment losses. The reinsurance contracts are classified by determining whether they transfer significant insurance risks to the reinsurer, and if not, the contracts are measured and recognized by deposit accounting.

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

22. Co-insurance organization, co-insurance and guarantee fund agreement

The Company has entered into a “Compulsory Automobile Liability Insurance Co-Insurance Contract” with all member companies that have been approved by the competent authority to operate compulsory automobile liability insurance, agreeing that all the underwritten business is included in the co-insurance, and violators must pay liquidated damages, and the co-insurance organization may audit the business. The underwritten co-insurance business is calculated based on pure premiums, which are allocated according to the agreed co-insurance ratio. Any member company participating in the co-insurance shall not arbitrarily withdraw from the business, except for liquidation or closure. Ceasing to operate the automobile liability insurance business spells withdrawal from the coinsurance at the same time, and the natural maturity mechanism is applied to the unexpired liabilities.

The company has entered into a “Travel Agency Performance Bond Co-Insurance Contract” with property insurance companies in the underlying business and reinsurance companies, agreeing that all the underwritten business is included in the co-insurance, and violators must pay liquidated damages, and the co-insurance organization may audit the business. The underwritten co-insurance business is calculated based on the inclusion of co-insurance premiums (i.e. risk premiums), and each member company bears its own co-insurance liabilities according to its underwriting portion, and is not jointly liable. A member company may notify the co-insurance organization in writing to withdraw from the co-insurance three months before the beginning of the following year; its initial co-insurance underwriting portion remains till the end of the current year, and it continues to be responsible for the unfulfilled liabilities till their natural maturity.

23.Stability fund

To protect the basic rights and interests of the insured and maintain financial stability according to Article 143-1 of the Insurance Law, a stability fund is established, of which a fund for compulsory insurance is set aside with the contribution rate based on Article 44 of the Compulsory Automobile Insurance Act, and another fund for non-compulsory insurance is also set aside according to the “Life Insurance and Property Insurance Stability Fund Contribution Standard,” both of which are deposited in the Property Insurance Stability Fund, and booked under the account of Stability Fund Expenditure.

24.Retirement Benefits Plan

The Company’s employee retirement plan is applicable to all employees who are officially employed, and a retirement fund is fully set aside for the management by the Supervisory Committee of Business Entities’ Labor Retirement Reserve and deposited into a dedicated pension fund account; since the retirement fund is deposited in the name of the committee, it is completely separated from the Company, and therefore not included in the above financial statements.

For the post-retirement benefit plan of the defined contribution plan, the monthly pension contribution rate shall not be less than 6% of the employee’s monthly salary, and the amount allocated is recognized as current expenses.

The post-retirement benefit plan of the defined benefit plan is listed based on an actuarial report with the projected unit credit method on the closing date of the reporting period. The remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability (asset) includes any changes in the return of plan assets and the impact of the asset ceiling, minus the net interest of the net defined benefit liability (asset), and actuarial gains and losses. When the remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability (asset) occurs, it is listed under other comprehensive income, and immediately recognized in retained surplus. The service cost of previous period is the amount of change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation caused by the planned revision or reduction, and is recognized as an expense on the earlier date of the following two:

32

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

  • (1) When the planned revision or reduction occurs; and

  • (2) When the related restructuring costs or resignation benefits are recognized.

The net interest of the net definite benefit liability (asset) is determined by multiplying the net defined benefit liability (asset) by the discount rate, both of which are determined at the beginning of the annual reporting period, and then in consideration of any change in the net defined benefit liability (asset) due to the appropriated amount and benefit payment. When the loss is recognized as gains and losses, any exchange component of the profit or loss is recognized as gains and losses.

25. Taxation

The income tax expense (benefit) refers to the aggregate amount related to the current income tax and deferred income tax included in the current gains and losses.

Income tax expenses in the current period

The current income tax liability (asset) related to the current and previous periods is measured by the tax rate and tax laws that have been legislated or substantively legislated at the end of the reporting period. The current income tax and those recognized as other comprehensive income or directly recognized as equity are respectively recognized as other comprehensive income other than gains and losses.

The additional profit-making enterprise income tax on the undistributed surplus is recognized as income tax expense on the day when the shareholders’ meeting decides the surplus distribution.

Deferred tax

The deferred income tax is calculated based on the temporary difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the book value on the balance sheet at the end of the reporting period.

Except for the following two, all the taxable temporary differences are recognized as deferred income tax liabilities:

  • (1) The initial recognition of goodwill; or the initially recognized assets or liabilities that are not generated by a business merger and does not affect accounting profits at the time of the transaction, nor does it affect the taxable incomes (losses);

  • (2) Taxable temporary differences arising from investment in subsidiaries, affiliates and joint agreement equity, whose reversal timing is controllable and is unlikely to be reversed in the foreseeable future.

Except for the following two, deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and deferred income tax assets arising from unused tax deductions are recognized within the range of possible future taxable incomes:

33

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

  • (1) Deductible temporary differences related to the initially recognized assets or liabilities from nonmerger transactions that neither affect accounting profits nor taxable incomes (losses) at the time of the transaction;

  • (2) Deductible temporary differences related to investment in subsidiaries, affiliates, and joint agreement equity that are likely to be reversed only in the foreseeable future, and recognized with sufficient taxable income at the time of reversal for use by the temporary differences.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured by the tax rate for the period in which the assets are expected to be realized or the liabilities settled, and the tax rate is based on the tax rate and tax law that has been legislated or substantively legislated at the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred income tax assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences arising from the book value of the assets expected to be recovered or the liabilities to be settled at the end of the reporting period. The deferred income tax related to items not recognized as gains and losses is not recognized as gains and losses; instead, it is recognized as other comprehensive income or directly as equity depending on it transaction. Deferred income tax assets are reviewed and recognized at the end of the reporting period.

The deferred income tax assets and liabilities have the statutory enforcement power to offset only the current income tax assets and liabilities, where the deferred income tax belongs to the same taxpayer and levied by the same tax authority.

The interim income tax expenses are accrued and disclosed at the tax rate applicable to the expected total earnings of the current year, that is, the estimated annual average effective tax rate is applied to the net income before tax of the interim period. The estimated annual average effective tax rate only includes the current income tax expense. The deferred income tax is consistent with the annual financial report and is recognized and measured in accordance with the provisions of IAS 12 “Income Tax.” When there is change in tax rate during the interim period, the impact of the change in tax rate on the deferred income tax shall be entirely recognized in the profit and loss, other comprehensive profit and loss, or directly recognized in the equity.

5. Main Source of Significant Accounting Judgment, Estimates and Assumptions Uncertainty

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires the corporate management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions at the end of the reporting period, which affects the disclosure of revenues, expenses, and assets and liabilities as well as contingent liabilities. However, the uncertainties in these major assumptions and estimates may result in significant future adjustments to the book value of the assets or liabilities.

1. Judgments

In the process of adopting the Company’s accounting policies, the corporate management makes the following judgments that have a significant impact on the amounts recognized in the financial statements:

  • (1) The level of significance of insurance risk transfer measured based on the risk ratio of the initial insurance policy.

Insurance policy risk ratio

= (Amount paid by the insurance company under the scenario of an insured accident/Amount paid by the insurance company under the scenario of a non-insured accident-1)×100%

34

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

The initial insurance policy that meets one of the following conditions is recognized as an insurance contract:

  • A. The insurance period is greater than or equal to 5 years, and at least 5 policy years with the risk ratio greater than 10% (or 5%);

  • B. The insurance period is less than 5 years, and more than half of the policy years with the risk ratio greater than 10% (or 5%).

The formula to calculate the insurance risk ratio shows that apparently property insurance policies usually meet the conditions for transferring significant insurance risks, and therefore insurers can often directly recognize most property insurance policies as insurance contracts without calculating the risk ratio of the initial insurance policy.

  • (2) Use the risk ratio of the reinsurance policy to measure the level of significance of the insurance risk transfer.

The reinsurance policy risk ratio = (Σ present value of the net loss incurred by the ceded-in reinsurer × probability of occurrence/present value of the expected premium of the ceded-in reinsurer) × 100%

The reinsurance policy with risk ratio greater than 1% is recognized as a reinsurance contract.

2. Estimates and assumptions

The main information source of uncertainty about the future estimates and assumptions made at the end of the reporting period has a significant risk of causing significant adjustments in the book value of assets and liabilities in the next fiscal year. It is described as follows:

  • (1) Fair value of financial instruments

When the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recognized on the balance sheet cannot be obtained from the active market, the fair value is determined using valuation techniques, including income approach (such as discounted cash flow model) or market approach, whose assumed changes will affect the fair value of the reported financial instruments. Please see Note 7 for details.

  • (2) Insurance liabilities

The insurance liabilities are measured in accordance with the “Regulations on Insurance Companies Various Reserves”

The unearned premium reserve is calculated based on the unexpired risks by risk types, and the reserves are set aside in accordance with the risk characteristics determined by the actuary.

35

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

The Claims reserve is estimated based on the past claim experiences and settlement expenses and actuarial principles. The main assumptions are the loss development factor and the expected claim rate, leading to the final indemnity cost. The loss development factors and expected claim rates are based on the Company’s historical claim experiences, taking into account adjustments to the Company’s policies such as fee rates and claims management.

The estimation of the liability adequacy reserve complies with the “Actuarial Standards of Practice of Promulgation 40 - Contract Classification and Liability Adequacy Test” promulgated by the Actuarial Association of Chinese Taipei. When the liability adequacy reserve is assessed, the current estimate of the insurance contract future cash flow is based on reasonable estimation of future insurance benefits, premium revenues and related expenses.

The professional judgment used in the above liability assessment affects the net change in insurance liabilities and the insurance liabilities recognized in the financial statements.

(3) Reinsurance reserve asset

It includes ceded unearned premium reserve, ceded claims reserve, ceded liability reserve, ceded premium deficiency reserve, and ceded liability adequacy reserve. The reserves are estimated in accordance with the “Regulations on Insurance Companies Various Reserves” and by the terms of the reinsurance contracts.

  • (4) Post-retirement benefit plan

The pension costs of the post-retirement benefit plan and the present value of the defined benefit obligations are decided by the actuarial valuation. The actuarial valuation involves a variety of assumptions, including: determined discount rates as well as increases in future wages, mortality and pension payments. For detailed descriptions of the assumptions used to measure the pension costs and the defined benefit obligations, please see Note 6.

When the company initially applied IFRSs, the property appreciation measured at fair value in the initial DAY application should be used to make up the adverse effects of other accounting items caused by the initial application, and the unrealized value added amont from the re-evaluation should be fully listed as a special reserve on the date of conversion.

According to the “Guidelines for Strengthening Property Insurance Companies Reserves for Natural Disaster Insurances (Commercial Earthquake Insurance and Typhoon Flood Insurance),” starting from January 1, 2013, property insurance companies should use the special reserves for catastrophic event and fluctuation of risk provided under liabilities before December 31, 2012 for insurances other than the compulsory automobile liability insurance, nuclear energy insurance, policy-based basic residential earthquake insurance, commercial earthquake insurance, and typhoon flood insurance, to make up with higher priority the special reserves for catastrophic event and fluctuation of risk of the commercial earthquake insurance and typhoon flood insurance to their full level, and list them under liabilities, and then deduct the taxes from the balance of the above special reserves in accordance with IAS 12 and list the remainder in the special reserve under owner’s equity.

Subsequently, for the major business of the property insurance companies, when there are net losses from the insurance premium for the year, they shall use the provision hereof to make compensation first; for the insufficient part, they shall comply with Article 8 of the “Regulations for the Provision Appropriation for Compulsory Automobile Liability Insurance.”

  • Impact of changes in estimates and assumptions

The premium deficiency reserve is estimated by anticipated cost approach, where the anticipated final loss rate is based on the Company’s loss experience in the past five years, taking into account the impact of large claims on the loss rate, while the anticipated maintenance cost takes reference to expense items such as salaries and information expenses listed in the Insurance Expense Exhibit for the past six years. However, the estimates and assumptions are uncertain, so the anticipation estimates may not match the actual ones in the future.

Note: The data period is from January to March 2022; fire insurance premiums are not covered in long-term fire insurance.

According to the data from January to March 2022, although the assumed increase of expected loss rate by 5% have a certain degree of impact on the profit or loss, with the reinsurance arrangement, however, the impact from the change in expected loss rate can be reduced, thereby spreading the risks, and the sensitivity can be maintained within a reasonable range.

7. Explanation of concentrated insurance risks

  • (1) Circumstances that may lead to concentrated insurance risks:

  • A. Proportion of premiums for underwriting and ceded-in reinsurance

The insurance contracts underwritten by the company are spread across different types of insurance without concentration on a single type of insurance, and the highest proportion is attributed to automobile insurance, which accounted for 51.77% and 52.25% of the total underwriting during January 1 to March 31, 2022 and January 1 to March 31, 2021, respectively. Although the proportion is higher than that of other insurances, experiences show the relevant loss is stable and the risk variation is not significant; other insurance types do not have risk concentration either.

Proportion of premiums for underwriting and ceded-in reinsurance:

B. Retention ratios

The car insurance has the highest retention ratios, which accounted for 58.47% and 60.09% of its total premiums during January 1 to March 31, 2022 and January 1 to March 31, 2021, respectively, and in consideration of the possibility of significant cumulative losses, reinsurance is arranged to spread the risks, and therefore no risk concentration present.

Also considered are insurances related to natural disasters (e.g. earthquakes and typhoon floods) that may lead to significant cumulative losses, as well as insurances that may result in cumulative losses including property related insurances (fire insurance, engineering insurance), marine insurance and accident insurance, and to avoid concentrated underwriting risks, catastrophe reinsurance contacts are purchased to spread the risks.

10. Financial risk management objectives and policies

Financial instruments other than derivatives held by the Company mainly include: cash and cash equivalents, and various investments. Such financial instruments are used to adjust the flow of operating funds. The Company also holds other financial assets and liabilities, such as notes receivable, premiums receivable, claims and benefits payable, due from (to) reinsurers & ceding companies, refundable deposits, resulted from business operations.

The Company also engages in derivatives trading, mainly on forward exchange agreements, to avoid exchange rate risks out of investment activities. The Company’s policy is NOT to engage in derivative transactions for trading purposes.

The main risks of the Company’s financial instruments are market risks, credit risks and liquidity risks. The risk management policy approved by the Board of Directors is as follows:

(1) Market risk

A. Exchange rate risk

The Company is exposed to the risk of fluctuated exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the New Taiwan dollar due to holding foreign currencies from trust investments. Since the amounts of such investment positions are significant, forward exchange agreements are carried out to hedge this part of investment activities.

The Company is also exposed to the exchange rate risk arising from reinsurance of business operations denominated in non-functional currencies. However, this type of transactions usually has a short cash collection period with less significant exchange rate fluctuation, and therefore transactions as such are usually not hedged.

The conditions for the hedging tools and for the hedged items are the same based on the Company’s self-assessment, so as to maximize the hedging efficacy.

B. Interest rate risk

The interest rate risk is a result from fluctuated fair value of financial instruments or fluctuated cash flows in the future due to changes in market interest rates, and the floating interest rate assets held by the company as well as the floating interest rate debts undertaken by the company may lead risks arising from fluctuated cash flows in the future due to the changes in the market interest rates; however, the Company’s financial instruments are all capitalguaranteed, and therefore the impact is not significant.

C. Equity price risk

The company holds domestic and foreign listed and unlisted equity securities, whose prices will be affected by the uncertainty of the future value of their invested targets. These listed and unlisted equity securities held by the Company are included in the fair value measurement through profit or loss and the fair value measurement through other comprehensive profit or loss. Investment portfolios are used to set investment limits on single and overall equity securities to manage the price risks.

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

  • (2) Credit risk

  • A. Credit risk management policy

The company only deals with third parties that have been recognized as having good credit and, as the corporate policy requires, a credit transaction must go through a credit confirmation procedure before being carried out, and the recovery of premiums and bills receivable are continuously surveyed and evaluated and, as a result, the Company has maintained a good status from bad debts. If the counterparty shows credibility issues, however, relevant contracts will be suspended and the related rights and obligations will not be exercised until it gets back to the transaction status.

The credit risks to which the Company’s financial transactions are exposed include issuer credit risk, counterparty credit risk and underlying asset credit risk:

  • a. The issuer credit risk refers to the risk of financial losses incurred by the Company due to the holding of financial debt instruments or deposits in banks for which payments or compensation obligations are not performed because of default, bankruptcy or liquidation of the issuer, guarantor or bank, in accordance with the agreed terms.

  • b. The counterparty credit risk refers to the risk of financial losses incurred by the Company due to the transactions of financial instruments, with which the counterparty fails to perform the delivery or payment obligations on the agreed date.

  • c. The underlying asset credit risk refers to the risk of losses due to the weakened credit quality, increased credit discounts, downgraded credit ratings, or breach of contract concerning the underlying asset linked to financial instruments.

The IFRS 9 is taken to assess expected credit losses, and except for receivables, for which allowance for loss is measured by the lifetime expected credit loss, the rest debt instruments not measured at fair value through profit or loss have the allowance for loss measured based on the lowest risk credit at initial procurement, and on every balance sheet date whether the credit risk is significantly increased since the initial recognition is assessed to determine the method and the loss rate for measuring the allowance for loss. The method and indicators used to assess the impairment of the debt instrument investments are described as follows:

Loss rates
Credit risk ratings Indicators Expected credit loss

2021.12.31 2021.3.31

1.5868%~
4.8399%

3.8394%

The financial assets with recovery unable to be reasonably expected (e.g. the issuer or debtor has major financial difficulties, or has gone bankrupt) are written off.

The debt instruments with increased credit risks are promptly disposed to reduce credit losses. To assess the expected credit losses based on IFRS 9, the forward-looking information (obtained without excessive cost or investment) used also includes general economic information and industry information, and the lose rate is adjusted if the information shows significant impact on the credit losses.

77

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued)

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

  • B. Judgment that the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition

  • a. The financial instruments are assessed for impairment based on IFRS 9 on every reporting date, to judge whether the credit risk has significantly increased since the initial recognition. This assessment considers reasonable and supportive information (including forward-looking one) that shows a significant increase in the credit risk since the initial recognition, and the main indicators include external credit ratings, credit spreads, and other market information related to the borrowers or issuers showing a significant increase of the credit risk.

  • b. Low credit risk: If a financial instrument is judged as having low credit risk on the reporting date, it can be assumed that the credit risk of the financial instrument has not significantly increased since initial recognition.

  • C. Defaulted and credit impaired financial assets

The default of a financial asset is defined the same as with its credit impairment, and one or more of the following conditions are met, the financial asset is judged as defaulted and credit impaired:

  • a. Quantitative indicator: When the contract payment is overdue for more than 90 days, the financial asset is judged as defaulted and credit impaired.

  • b. Qualitative indicator: When evidence shows that the issuer or borrower is unable to fulfill the contract payment, or that the issuer or borrower has major financial difficulties, such as:

    • (A) The issuer or borrower is bankrupt or may apply for bankruptcy or financial restructuring; or

    • (B) Failure to pay the principal or interest in accordance with the agreed terms; or

    • (C) The borrower’s collateral is under provisional attachment or compulsory collection; or

    • (D) The borrower applies for changing the credit terms due to financial difficulties.

  • c. The above definitions of default and credit impairment apply to all financial assets held by the Company, and are consistent with the definitions used for financial assets at stake for internal credit risk management, and are also used in the relevant impairment assessment models.

  • D. Measurement of expected credit losses

  • a. The approach and assumption

The allowance for loss of the financial instruments with no significant increase of credit risks since initial recognition is measured by the 12-month expected credit loss; the allowance for loss of the financial instruments with significant increase of credit risk or credit impairment since initial recognition is measured by the lifetime expected credit loss.

78

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued) (Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

To measure the expected credit loss, the probability of default (PD) in the next 12 months and in the lifetime of the financial instruments are considered, with the loss given default (LGD) accommodated, multiplied by the exposure at default (EAD), along with additional consideration on the influence of the time value of money, and then the expected credit loss is calculated for the 12 months and for the lifetime duration, respectively.

The PD is the probability that the issuer, guarantee agency or borrower will default, and the LGD is the loss ratio caused by the issuer, guarantee agency or borrower when the default occurs. The LGD used for the impairment assessment is based on the information regularly published by Moody’s, an international credit rating agency; the PD is based on the information regularly published by the Taiwan Ratings and Moody’s, taking into account historical data adjusted based on currently observable data and general economic information (such as GDP and economic growth rate). The EAD is measured at the amortized cost and interests receivable of financial assets.

  • b. Consideration of forward-looking information

The forward-looking information is taken into consideration when the expected credit loss of financial assets is measured.

  • E. Analysis of risk concentration

  • a. The following table shows the geographical distribution of the credit risk exposure of the financial assets:

(3) Operational risk

The purpose is to avoid potential losses out of improper internal control, fraud, corruption, and negligence. The Company has established separate operating procedures and computer systems with the frontend and backend platforms and middleware according to the business features to effectively manage operational risks by way of strict internal control and auditing as well as external reviews and statutory compliance. The company has also formulated and implemented the “Operational Risk Management Mechanism” for risk assessment by each department; also, the “Guidelines for Risk Early Warning and Reporting” is set up to establish a loss experience database.

(4) Liquidity risk

A. Definition and source of liquidity risk

The liquidity risk of financial instruments can be divided as “fund liquidity risk” and “market liquidity risk.” The “fund liquidity risk” refers to the risk that necessary and sufficient funds are not available within a reasonable time and at a reasonable cost, resulting in a funding gap; the “market liquidity risk” refers to the losses incurred due to assets sold below the market price in order to acquire necessary funds.

B. Liquidity risk management

Based on the business features, the short-term cash flows are regularly assessed and monitored under a sound liquidity risk management mechanism, where the market transaction volumes and proportionality of fund positions are considered for prudent control of the market liquidity risk; also, contingency plans are drawn up to deal with major liquidity risks out of abnormal and emergent fund demands.

Stress testing analysis is to test changes in funding liquidity under various combinations of extremely abnormal and unfavorable situations to ensure safe funding liquidity. The stress scenarios assumed include major market fluctuations, occurrences of various credit events, and unexpected tightening of financial market liquidity that may generate liquidity pressures, and the test is to measure the changes in positive and negative funding gaps of the overall corporate fund supply and demand in various periods without affecting normal business operations. Aimed at the funding gaps resulted from the stress testing scenarios, contingency plans have been set up to deal with such major liquidity risks out of the assumed abnormal and emergent demands on funds.

(5) Market risk analysis

Market risk refers to the risk of reduced benefits or investment portfolio values due to changes in the market factors such as exchange rates, commodity prices, interest rates, credit spreads, and stock prices.

84

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued) (Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

The market risk management tools such as Value at Risk (VaR) and stress testing are constantly used to comprehensively and effectively measure, monitor and manage the market risks.

A. Value at risk (VaR)

The VaR is used to measure the maximum potential loss incurred by investment portfolios due to changes in market risk factors during a specific period and under a certain confidence level. The Company currently take a confidence level of 99% to calculate VaR for the next two weeks.

The VaR of relevant asset positions is shown in the following table:

B. Stress testing

With the VaR model, regular stress testing is given to measure potential market risks when extremely abnormal events occur. The stress testing measures the potential impact on the value of the investment portfolio from extreme changes in a series of financial variables.

Currently a simple sensitivity analysis and a scenario simulation are regularly given to carry out the stress test on the financial positions, and the test covers loss of position caused by the change of risk factors in various historical scenarios:

85

(English Translation of Financial Statements Originally Issued in Chinese) ShinKong Insurance Co., Ltd. Notes to financial statements (Continued) (Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise stated)

a. Simple sensitivity analysis

The simple sensitivity analysis measures the changed value of the investment portfolio caused by changes in specific risk factors.

  • b. Scenario Analysis

The scenario analysis measures the changed total value of investment positions that occurs under hypothetical events, and the scenarios include:

  • i. Historical scenarios:

A period of historical events is selected, and the fluctuated risk factors in the period are added to the current investment portfolio to calculate the loss out of the historical events.

  • ii. Hypothetical scenarios:

With a reasonably expected hypothesis that could lead to extreme market changes in the future, its changed risk factors are added to the current investment portfolio to measure the loss out of the hypothetical events.

The Investment Department regularly carries out the stress test under hypothetical scenarios and send the resulted reports to the Risk Management Department for the corporate risk analysis, risk warning and business management.

  1. Fair value information of financial instruments

  2. (1) The methods and assumptions used to measure fair values are as follows:

    • A. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables are estimated based on their book values on the balance sheet, because such items will become mature shortly and thus their book values are a reasonable basis for measuring the fair values.

    • B. The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities that have standard terms and conditions and are traded in active markets are determined by reference to market quotes (including beneficiary certificates, listed stocks and bonds).

    • C. The fair values of derivatives are based on public quotes. When public quotes are not available, the fair values of non-option derivatives are calculated with the applicable lifetime yield curve by discounted cash flow analysis, while the fair values of option derivatives are calculated by the option pricing model.

    • D. The fair values of other financial assets and financial liabilities are determined based on the discounted cash flow analysis, where the assumptions such as interest rates and discount rates are mainly based on the information of similar instruments and applicable lifetime yield curves.

  3. (2) Fair value by financial assets measured at amortized cost

Except for those listed in the following table, the book values of financial assets and financial liabilities measured by amortized cost approximate their fair values:

  • (3) Fair value recognized on balance sheet

The following table provides the analysis of financial instruments measured at fair value after initial recognition, by dividing the fair values into the following three levels:

Level 1: Public quotes (unadjusted) of the same assets or liabilities in the active market.

  • Level 2: Except for the Level 1 public quotes, the fair value is derived from the direct observable input values (i.e. prices) and indirect ones (i.e. derivatives from prices) of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3: The fair value is derived with the appraisal technology that is not based on input values of the assets or liabilities from the observable market data.
