Appendix 1

Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

2019 marks the year when ScinoPharm examined its operations as a whole in order to make adjustments that better reflect the current situation and developments in the future of ScinoPharm and to cope with ongoing acquisitions and mergers among pharmaceutical companies around the world and the structural change in the ecology of the pharmaceutical industry internationally nowadays. An overview of the performance last year reveals that the operational development of ScinoPharm has stabilized, which is in favor of the Company continuing to make robust investments that help strengthen its own R&D capabilities and precisely keeping track of the market share of existing products. ScinoPharm has also been more proactively facilitating precise fulfillment at the implementation level of the integration of strategies for managing internal resources. On the other hand, the development timeframe of new products has been precisely kept track of to create inside out a complete network to cope with challenges and to be sufficiently prepared for expected fierce competition.

The consolidated revenue of the Company in 2019 was NT$ 2.893 billion, with an after-tax net profit of NT$217 million and the earnings per share after tax was NT$0.27. As of the end of 2019, the paid-in capital size was NT$7.907 billion and shareholders’ equity NT$10.26 billion accounting for around 88% of the overall assets of NT$11.67 billion. The long-term capital was 2.47 times the fixed assets and the current ratio was 7.29 times. The financial condition appeared to be structurally sound and steady.

Continuous Devotion to API Market to Secure Existing Market Position

In terms of the sales of APIs last year, Japanese customers had increased demand for APIs in the preparation for launch and it contributed to a significant increase in the revenue from Japan. This indicates the preliminary accomplishments made by ScinoPharm Taiwan after years of management on Japan's market. The performance of existing APIs for the Generic Drug in the United States and Canada market appeared to be relatively weak, mainly because of the market forecast made by customers about the future turning conservative given the fierce competition among the various generic drugs available after the patents of their primary products expired; the current inventory and stock safety level is accordingly adjusted down. In addition, the sales of primary API products were directly or indirectly impacted by the ongoing integration of related internal resources and the allocation of production lines for multiple super-acquisitions and mergers taking place among international pharmaceutical companies. Before such acquisition and merger procedures are completed, existing production plans are slowed down. The sale of APIs is the cornerstone of ScinoPharm; they account for at least two-thirds of the overall sales each year on average. Faced with the challenges on the market, ScinoPharm insists on marching forward robustly, realistically, and step by step and on securing its current API market share without stop in order to stabilize the overall operation of the Company. In terms of outsourced R&D and outsourced manufacturing of new drugs, the performance last year showed relatively large fluctuations. For the new antibiotic product, due to the sufficient preparatory stock prior to marketing and the yet-to-be-formed medication habits of users, there was no significant shipping demand. Due to the unsuccessful accession into the US market, on the other hand, the future developments of the intermediate product that is to be used in new drugs remain unclear and the demand has hence slowed down.

Cumulative R&D Momentum for Highly Complex Products to Drive Development of Injection Business

Specializing in the development of highly complex and high-entry-level products is one of the important competencies for ScinoPharm take initiatives on the market. This specialization is applied simultaneously in the development of the injection business, too. Forsaprepitant Dimeglumine, an injectable formulation, developed in collaboration with Baxter as antiemetic medication for chemotherapy patients has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) and became an application to receive First Cycle Approval, demonstrating ScinoPharm's abilities in developing sterile injectable formulations. Another anti-coagulant spontaneously developed by ScinoPharm, Fondaparinux, has also entered the preparation stage for marketing. The product features a very complex manufacturing process. ScinoPharm is one of the few manufacturers around the world that is capable of providing

- 7 -

one-stop integrated service from APIs to the development of preparations for complex injectable business. ScinoPharm now has 3 preparations for injection and the revenue brought about has shown multiplied growths, which is proof of completion of transformation.

Integration of Utilization and Management of Internal Resources to Further Optimize Operational Efficacy

The overall operational efficacy is enhanced through internal management by combining the strengths of the Tainan Plant and the Changshou Plant of ScinoPharm. Gradually improved operational status at Changshou Plant: Besides looking for partners with whom the specialties and strengths of each other may be combined to multiply the benefits brought about by the partnership, in response to the economic development and the implementation of medical reformation policies in China, ScinoPharm (Changshu) will now work to secure the vast opportunities available on the medicinal market of China with its quality that is internationally approved in the US and the Japan through establishment inspections carried out the local governing authorities and with its compliant qualitative regulatory strengths in terms of environment, safety, and health. In the future, in its product selection strategy, ScinoPharm will continue to deploy vertically integrated injection products, including small-molecule and peptide-based APIs. In the business of CDMO, ScinoPharm will focus on orphan drugs and targeted drugs with a short development cycle, and will strive to maximize the effectiveness of R&D resources, choose the best timing for product development and commercialization, and pursue the greatest possible opportunities. Besides securing existing U.S. and European regulatory markets and accordingly the local market shares, ScinoPharm includes the development of potential markets as one of its important goals. In addition, ScinoPharm constantly demonstrates its high quality and high technicality to its customers and, by developing different types of products, forms a highly mutual-trust business relationship and a flexible and unrestricted collaboration model with its customers.

ScinoPharm has successfully completed the seventh establishment inspection and received No Action Indicated (NAI) compliance status with zero 483 observations from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) again in May last year, which indicates that the quality management of the Company fulfills international standards. As of the end of 2019, the Company obtained the Drug Master File (DMF) for a total of 828 drugs globally, including 62 in the U.S. Among them, up to 37 were an anti-cancer product, which shows the strong technical capability of ScinoPharm in the fight against cancer. To maximize its long-term competitive advantages, the Company has also accumulated abundant accomplishments in terms of self-owned technologies. Throughout last year, the Company applied for a total of seven patents for protecting product processes or crystal form. And by the end of 2019, excluding invention patents that are irrelevant to the long-term developments and hence are no longer maintained at present, ScinoPharm already has 61 inventions with 382 patents obtained around the world in addition to 22 inventions with a total of 40 patents pending review.

Practical and Robust Operational Strategy to Fulfill Corporate Core Values

ScinoPharm specializes in development preparations with abundant API product lines and has successfully applied such skill to the generic drug field after several years of efforts. In the future, it will continue to research and develop preparations through self R&D and proactive joint development and amortization of cost with global strategic partners while expanding business and enter the end market of the pharmaceutical industry where profits are shared in order to create a vertically integrated value chain. Internally, on the other hand, optimization of process, enhancement of throughput utilization, cost control, and improvement of management efficiency continue to expedite product development and to become one of the few special formulation manufacturers around the world with complete R&D and production capabilities. The whole staff of ScinoPharm will devote more efforts and recourses to product-developments and try to create even better return on investment for shareholders. I cordially ask all of you, shareholders, ladies and gentlemen, to continue with your support and guidance for us. Thank you!

Chih-Hsien Lo, Chairman

Refer to Note 4(28) to the parent company only financial statements for accounting policy on revenue recognition and Note 6(18) to the parent company only financial statements for accounting items on revenue.

The Company’s sales revenue mainly arises from the manufacture and sales of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (“API”), which primarily consists of export sales. The Company recognizes 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 audit 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 included checking the terms and conditions of transactions, verifying against supporting documents, and checking whether inventory movements and costs of sales were recognized in the appropriate period.

Inventory valuation

Description

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, 2019, the balances of inventory and allowance for inventory valuation losses were $1,489,137 thousand and $388,442 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 realizable value. For inventories aging over a certain period of time and are individually identified as obsolete inventories, the net realizable value is calculated based on the historical information of inventory turnover. Since the calculation of net realizable 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 audit 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 turnover and judgement of obsolete inventory.

  2. Verified whether the dates 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 whether the reported information was in line with the Company’s policies.

  3. Selected samples from inventory items by each sequence number to verify its realizable 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.

- 15 -

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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

- 16 -

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 5

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, 2019 and 2018, 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, 2019 and 2018, 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 2019. 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:

- 24 -

Cutoff of export revenue from Taiwan

Description

Refer to Note 4(28) for accounting policies on revenue recognition and Note 6(20) for accounting items on operating revenue.

The Group’s sales revenue mainly arise from the manufacture and sales 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.

How our audit 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 included 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

Refer to Note 4(13) for accounting policies on inventory valuation, Note 5(2)1 for the uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions applied on inventory valuation, and Note 6(5) for details of inventories. As of December 31, 2019, the balances of inventory and allowance for inventory valuation losses were $1,595,450 thousand and $471,118 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 turnover. 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.

- 25 -

How our audit 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 turnover and judgement of obsolete inventory.

  2. Verified whether the dates 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 whether 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, 2019 and 2018.

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

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

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

Those charged with governance, including 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,

- 26 -

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.

- 27 -

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.
