Appendix 1

Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders:

The competition in the global pharmaceutical market is still fierce, and the consolidation between various types of pharmaceutical companies in the world continues to increase. ScinoPharm effectively leverages its existing competitive advantages and accurately grasps market development trend to formulate a more flexible sales strategy that will enable ScinoPharm to maintain its operating stability in the turbulent atmosphere of the market. At the same time, ScinoPharm also increases the intensity of internal control to continuously optimize the process, accurately calculate its costs and expenses, comprehensively assess the appropriateness of resource allocation, and strive to overcome the impact on its revenue due to unclear market prospects and uncertainties.

In 2018, the company’s consolidated annual revenue was NT$3.524 billion, the net profit after tax was NT$443 million, and the after-tax earnings per share was NT$0.56. By the end of 2018, the company's paid-in capital was NT$7.907 billion, shareholders' equity was NT$10.54 billion, accounting for 84% of total assets of NT$12.56 billion. The long-term capital was 2.23 times that of the fixed assets, with the current ratio of 3.34. The financial structure was stable and sound.

Working toward the goal of becoming a full-scale pharmaceutical company

From the overall performance of the previous year, the APIs for the Generic Drug still account for more than 60% of the performance. Some APIs for the Generic Drug include: the APIs for the colorectal cancer drugs that continue to have demand and increasing demand for other anti-cancer APIs, which makes up for the impact of the reduction in demand for Paclitaxel. Meanwhile, the importance of the Japanese market is increased and its performance has slightly eased the sales pressure brought by other markets. In the business of CDMO, the overall performance is good, as there has been improvement in the ratio of the total revenue. At the end of 2017, the customer's new antibiotic drug, Baxdela™, was approved by the U.S. FDA as a new antibiotic drug product launch for treatment of infectious diseases. Last year, it became an important product for ScinoPharm, as it brought in considerable revenue for ScinoPharm. Besides, as the shipment of intermediate products for clinical use continues, it also helps to stabilize its overall sales.

In recent years, it has been effective for ScinoPharm to engage in the business of making injectable formulations based on the Generic Drug. The anti-blood cancer generic drug developed in cooperation with a major pharmaceutical company, Sagent, has received an approval and thereby been ready for sale in the United States at the beginning of last year. It has become the first injectable formulation product to bring in a profit. Regarding another self-developed anticoagulant product that used the highly difficult synthetic technology, Fondaparinux Sodium, ScinoPharm had signed a deal and authorized an Indian International pharmaceutical company to sell the product. This product has officially obtained regulatory approval in the US. It is expected that in addition to sales in the US, this product will be sold in emerging markets, and it is expected that ScinoPharm will further expand its sales network in the future.

Strengthening internal control and accelerates the strategic deployment

ScinoPharm continues to reasonably accelerate the process of product development by optimizing the process, controlling the costs and improving the management efficiency. And ScinoPharm also actively cooperates with global strategic partners to accelerate its transformation into a differential pharmaceutical company of special dosage forms. At the same time, ScinoPharm also actively expands the business of CDMO for its customers and improves the utilization of its capacity. The self-built injectable plant adopts a quality-oriented and diversified production method. ScinoPharm will complete the registration batch according to the scheduled time, send out the self-produced ANDA injection products, and drive the Taiwan FDA to conduct on-site inspection to in turn drive up its revenue.

  • 5 -

ScinoPharm has also achieved fruitful results in establishing its own technologies. ScinoPharm obtained a total of 805 drug master files (DMFs) worldwide by the end of 2018. 60 DMFs were registered in the United States, and up to 31 DMFs were about anti-cancer products. The patent applications have also yielded fruitful results. A total of 61 inventions have obtained 361 patents worldwide, and a total of 81 patent applications for its inventions are under review.

Mastering the competitive advantages of ScinoPharm (Changshu) and actively seeking international strategic partners

As China accelerates the reform of the pharmaceutical system and actively seeks to fully integrate with advanced countries on the institutional level, it is also sufficient to show China's emphasis on drug review. Under the huge changes on the regulatory level, ScinoPharm’s subsidiary in Jiangsu, ScinoPharm (Changshu), is still not as fast as expected in terms of its business progress. Last year, ScinoPharm (Changshu) re-examined and constructed different development plans and conducted internal mobilization. At present, it also actively excludes uncertain factors in the development process and gradually achieves the staged goals in line with the Company's expectations. In the short-term, ScinoPharm (Changshu) will work hard to develop projects that can increase capacity utilization. ScinoPharm will also explore international strategic partners that can combine the competitive advantages of both parties, seek more business opportunities in CDMO, and strive to accelerate the pace of operation of ScinoPharm (Changshu).

Inheriting high standards of quality management and setting off to realize the corporate philosophy of pursuing excellence

Setting off a manufacturer of the APIs for the anti-cancer drug, ScinoPharm has strictly abided by international cGMP manufacturing specifications for more than 20 years and used its strengths to provide the high-quality APIs, and has been repeatedly recognized by the authorities of pharmaceutical affairs in Taiwan, Europe, America and Japan through field inspections. Last year, for the 2nd time, it successfully passed the GMP field inspections by the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) as an Independent Administrative Corporation in Japan, and for the 5th time, passed the field inspection by the Mexican Authority of Pharmaceutical Affairs (COFEPRIS), which served as an important indicator of ScinoPharm's quality assurance. ScinoPharm has always been committed to improving corporate governance while assuming the corporate social responsibility (CSR). Last year, ScinoPharm obtained Taiwan's “2018 Excellence in CSR Award” by CommonWealth Magazine, which affirmed ScinoPharm's performance in corporate commitment, social participation, environmental protection and corporate governance. In the same year, in the 4th corporate governance evaluation by the Taiwan Stock Exchange, it was one of the top 5% listed companies, and also the only biotech company among the top 5% listed companies.

Pursuing for excellence and emphasizing the professional management attitude

Since its establishment, ScinoPharm Taiwan has established its reputation in the international anti-cancer API market with its rigorous attitude and professional ability. It has rich experience and the ability to provide high-quality products and become a reliable partner of its customers. ScinoPharm continuously improves the overall profitability of APIs for the Generic Drug, and also successfully expands its business sales reach into the field of injectable product. Meanwhile, ScinoPharm will also make good use of strategic alliances to develop alliance partners for the pharmaceutical injectable formulation business to obtain the multiple benefits from the cooperative business model. In the business of CDMO, ScinoPharm will continue to invest in various projects that have been cultivated for many years, consolidate the cooperation with existing customers, and develop new business opportunities that may create profits.

ScinoPharm will continue to optimize its product assortment, strengthen risk management and enhance internal operational efficiency. In the fiercely competitive market, it will also grasp the trends and market opportunities in the global pharmaceutical industry, hoping to continuously improve operational efficiency and profitability. In addition, ScinoPharm will faithfully fulfill the corporate social responsibility with concrete actions, return the support of shareholders, and have a positive impact on society. Finally, ScinoPharm would like to thank its customers, shareholders and dedicated employees for their long-standing support. ScinoPharm hereby expresses sincere gratitude!

Appendix 3

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of ScinoPharm Taiwan, Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of ScinoPharm Taiwan, Ltd. (the “Company”) as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the parent company only financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its parent company only financial performance and its parent company only cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers”.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Company’s parent company only financial statements of 2018. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

The key audit matters for the parent company only financial statements of the current period are stated as follows:

Cutoff of export revenue

Description

Please refer to Note 4(27) to the parent company only financial statements for accounting policy on revenue recognition.

- 8 -

The Company’s sales revenue mainly arise from manufacture and sale of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (“API”), which primarily consists of export sales. The Company recognises export sales revenue based on the terms and conditions of transactions which vary with different customers. As revenue recognition involves manual processes, and is material to the financial statements, we consider the cutoff of export revenue a key audit matter.

How our audits addressed the matter

We performed the following key audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:

  1. Understood and assessed the effectiveness of internal controls over cutoff of sales revenue, and tested the effectiveness of internal controls over shipping and billing.

  2. Checked the completeness of the export sales details for a certain period around balance sheet date, and performed cutoff tests on a random basis, which include checking the terms and conditions of transactions, verifying against supporting documents, and checking whether inventory movements and costs of sales were recognised in the appropriate period.

Inventory valuation

Description

Please refer to Note 4(11) for accounting policies on inventory valuation, Note 5(2)1. for the uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions applied in inventory valuation, and Note 6(4) for details of inventories. As of December 31, 2018, the balances of inventory and allowance for inventory valuation losses were $1,634,620 thousand and $391,032 thousand, respectively.

The Company is primarily engaged in the manufacture and sales of API. As the manufacturing process is relatively complicated and time consuming, materials require longer lead time, the waiting period for product registration is long, and the timing of the product launch may be deferred, there is higher risk of incurring loss on inventory valuation. For inventories sold under normal terms, the Company measures inventories at the lower of cost and net realisable value. For inventories aging over a certain period of time and are individually identified as obsolete inventories, the net realisable value is calculated based on the historical information of inventory turn-over. Since the calculation of net realisable value involves subjective judgement and the ending balance of inventory is material to the financial statements, we consider the valuation of inventory a key audit matter.

How our audits addressed the matter

We performed the following key audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:

  1. Evaluated the reasonableness of provision policies and procedures on allowance for inventory valuation losses, including the historical data of inventory turn-over and judgement of obsolete inventory.

  2. Verified whether the date used in the inventory aging reports that the Company applied to value inventories were accurate. Recalculated and evaluated the reasonableness of allowance for inventory valuation losses in order to confirm that the reported information was in line with the Company’s policies.

  3. Selected samples from inventory items by each sequence number to verify its realisable value and to evaluate the reasonableness of allowance for inventory valuation loss.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the parent company only financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers”, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the parent company only financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ROC GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the parent company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

- 10 -
  1. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  2. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the Company to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Appendix 4

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of ScinoPharm Taiwan, Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ScinoPharm Taiwan, Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Group”) as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Group’s consolidated financial statements of 2018. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

The key audit matters for the Group’s consolidated financial statements of the current period are stated as follows:

Cutoff of export revenue from Taiwan

Description

Please refer to Note 4(27) to the consolidated financial statements for accounting policy on revenue recognition.

The Group’s sales revenue mainly arise from manufacture and sale of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (“API”), which primarily consists of export sales. The Group recognises export sales revenue based on the terms and conditions of transactions which vary with different customers. As revenue recognition involves manual processes, and is material to the financial statements, we consider the cutoff of export revenue from Taiwan a key audit matter.

- 18 -

How our audits addressed the matter

We performed the following key audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:

  1. Understood and assessed the effectiveness of internal controls over cutoff of sales revenue, and tested the effectiveness of internal controls over shipping and billing.

  2. Checked the completeness of the export sales details for a certain period around balance sheet date, and performed cutoff tests on a random basis, which include checking the terms and conditions of transactions, verifying against supporting documents, and checking whether inventory movements and costs of sales were recognised in the appropriate period.

Inventory valuation

Description

Please refer to Note 4(13) for accounting policies on inventory valuation, Note 5(2)1. for the uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions applied in inventory valuation, and Note 6(5) for details of inventories. As of December 31, 2018 the balances of inventory and allowance for inventory valuation losses were $1,889,295 thousand and $525,498 thousand, respectively.

The Group is primarily engaged in the manufacture and sales of API. As the manufacturing process is relatively complicated and time consuming, materials require longer lead time, the waiting period for product registration is long, and the timing of the product launch may be deferred, there is higher risk of incurring loss on inventory valuation. For inventories sold under normal terms, the Group measures inventories at the lower of cost and net realisable value. For inventories aging over a certain period of time and are individually identified as obsolete inventories, the net realisable value is calculated based on the historical information of inventory turn-over. Since the calculation of net realisable value involves subjective judgement and the ending balance of inventory is material to the financial statements, we consider the valuation of inventory a key audit matter.

How our audits addressed the matter

We performed the following key audit procedures in respect of the above key audit matter:

  1. Evaluated the reasonableness of provision policies and procedures on allowance for inventory valuation losses, including the historical data of inventory turn-over and judgement of obsolete inventory.

  2. Verified whether the date used in the inventory aging reports that the Group applied to value inventories were accurate. Recalculated and evaluated the reasonableness of allowance for inventory valuation losses in order to confirm that the reported information was in line with the Group’s policies.

  3. Selected samples from inventory items by each sequence number to verify its realisable value and to evaluate the reasonableness of allowance for inventory valuation loss.

Other matter – Parent company only financial reports

We have audited and expressed an unmodified opinion on the parent company only financial statements of ScinoPharm Taiwan, Ltd. as at and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the consolidated financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

- 19 -

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ROC GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

- 20 -

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
