SCINOPHARM TAIWAN, LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND

REVIEW REPORT OF INDEPENDENT

ACCOUNTANTS

JUNE 30, 2016 AND 2015


For the convenience of readers and for information purpose only, the auditors’ report and the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China. In the event of any discrepancy between the English version and the original Chinese version or any differences in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-language auditors’ report and financial statements shall prevail.

REVIEW REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

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

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ScinoPharm Taiwan, Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month period then ended, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the six-month period then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these consolidated financial statements based on our reviews.

Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our reviews in accordance with Statement of Auditing Standards No. 36, “Review of Financial Statements” in the Republic of China. A review of interim financial information consists principally of obtaining an understanding of the system for the preparation of interim financial information, applying analytical procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of Company personnel responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

As described in Note 4(3), the financial statements of certain non-significant subsidiaries were consolidated based on their unreviewed financial statements as of and for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Total assets of these subsidiaries amounted to $2,838,038 thousand and $2,853,800 thousand, representing 23% and 24% of the related consolidated totals, and total liabilities amounted to $84,788 thousand and $102,521 thousand, representing 3% and 4% of the related consolidated totals, as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Total comprehensive income of these subsidiaries amounted to ($108,858) thousand, ($111,089) thousand, ($142,610) thousand and ($177,649) thousand, constituting (74%), (99%), (45%) and (86%) of the consolidated totals for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

~1~

Based on our reviews, except for the effect of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had the financial statements of certain non-significant subsidiaries been reviewed by independent accountants as described in the preceding paragraph, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above in order for them to be in conformity with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

The standards, procedures and practices in the Republic of China governing the review of such financial statements may differ from those generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and review report of independent accountants are not intended for use by those who are not informed about the accounting principles or auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, and their applications in practice.

A. Amendments to IAS 36, ‘Recoverable amount disclosures for non-financial assets’

The amendments remove the requirement to disclose recoverable amount when a cash generating unit (CGU) contains goodwill or indefinite lived intangible assets but there has been no impairment. When a material impairment loss has been recognised or reversed for an individual asset, including goodwill, or a CGU, it is required to disclose the recoverable amount of the asset or CGU. If the recoverable amount is fair value less costs of disposal, it is required to disclose the level of the fair value hierarchy, the valuation techniques(s) used and key assumptions.

The standard is amended to require disclosure of judgments made by management in aggregating operating segments. This amendment also clarifies that a reconciliation of the total of the reportable segments’ assets to the entity’s assets is required only when segment asset is provided to chief operating decision maker regularly.

  • C. Amendments to IAS 1, ‘Disclosure initiative’

This amendment clarifies the presentation of materiality, aggregation and subtotals, the framework of financial report, and the guide for accounting disclosure.

Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group’s financial condition and operating results based on the Group’s assessment. The quantitative impact will be disclosed when the assessment is complete.

  • A. Amendments to IAS 7, ‘Disclosure initiative’

This amendment requires that an entity shall provide more disclosures related to changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes.

~11~
  • B. Amendments to IAS 12, ‘Recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised losses’

  • These amendments clarify the recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised losses related to debt instruments measured at fair value, and they clarify several of the general principles underlying the accounting for deferred tax assets. The amendments clarify that a deductible temporary difference exists whenever an asset is measured at fair value and that fair value is below the asset’s tax base. When an entity assesses whether taxable profits will be available against which it can utilise a deductible temporary difference, it considers a deductible temporary difference in combination with all of its other deductible temporary differences unless there are tax law restrictions, and the tax deduction resulting from temporary differences is excluded from estimated future taxable profits.

  • C. IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’

  • (a) Classification of debt instruments is driven by the entity’s business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets, which would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or financial asset measured at amortised cost. Equity instruments would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, unless an entity makes an irrevocable election at inception to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument that is not held for trading.

  • (b) The impairment losses of debt instruments are assessed using an ‘expected credit loss’ approach. An entity assesses at each balance sheet date whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition to recognise 12-month expected credit losses (‘ECL’) or lifetime ECL (interest revenue would be calculated on the gross carrying amount of the asset before impairment losses occurred); or if the instrument that has objective evidence of impairment, interest revenue after the impairment would be calculated on the book value of net carrying amount (i.e. net of credit allowance).

  • D. IFRS 16, ‘Leases’

  • IFRS 16, ‘Leases’, replaces IAS 17, ‘Leases’ and related interpretations and SICs. The standard requires lessees to recognise a 'right-of-use asset' and a lease liability (except for those leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets). The accounting stays the same for lessors, which is to classify their leases as either finance leases or operating leases and account for those two types of leases differently. IFRS 16 only requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors.

~12~

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

(1) Compliance statement

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and IAS 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ as endorsed by the FSC.

(2) Basis of preparation

  • A. Except for the following items, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:

  • (a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.

  • (b) Defined benefit liabilities recognized based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.

  • B. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the “IFRSs”) requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.

(3) Basis of consolidation

  • A. Basis for preparation of consolidated financial statements:

  • (a) All subsidiaries are included in the Group’s consolidated financial statements. Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Consolidation of subsidiaries begins from the date the Group obtains control of the subsidiaries and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiaries.

  • (b) Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses on transactions between companies within the Group are eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

  • (c) Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the noncontrolling interests having a deficit balance.

~13~
  • (d) Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent losing control of the subsidiary (transactions with non-controlling interests) are accounted for as equity transactions, i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.

  • (e) When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value. That fair value is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset or the cost on initial recognition of the associate or joint venture. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. All amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary are reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required if the related assets or liabilities were disposed of. That is, when the Group loses control of a subsidiary, all gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary should be reclassified from equity to profit or loss, if such gains or losses would be reclassified to profit or loss when the related assets or liabilities are disposed of.

The financial statements of certain subsidiaries were consolidated based on their unreviewed financial statements as of and for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Total assets of these subsidiaries amounted to $2,838,038 and $2,853,800, representing 23% and 24% of the related consolidated totals, and total liabilities amounted to $84,788 and $102,521, representing 3% and 4% of the related consolidated totals, as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Total comprehensive loss of these subsidiaries amounted to ($108,858), ($111,089), ($142,610) and ($177,649), constituting (74%), (99%), (45%) and (86%) of the related consolidated totals for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

  • C. Subsidiaries not included in the consolidated financial statements: None.

  • D. Adjustments for subsidiaries with different balance sheet dates: None.

  • E. Significant restrictions: None.

  • F. Subsidiaries that have non-controlling interests that are material to the Group: None.

~15~

(4) Foreign currency translation

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in NTD, which is the Company’s functional and the Group’s presentation currency.

  • A. Foreign currency transactions and balances

  • (a) Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

  • (b) Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the period end are retranslated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising upon re-translation at the balance sheet date are recognized in profit or loss.

  • (c) Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through profit or loss are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognized in profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through other comprehensive income are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income. However, nonmonetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are not measured at fair value are translated using the historical exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.

  • (d) All other foreign exchange gains and losses based on the nature of those transactions are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within “other gains and losses”.

  • B. Translation of foreign operations

  • (a) The operating results and financial position of all the group entities, associates and joint arrangements that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

    • i. Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing exchange rate at the date of that balance sheet;

    • ii. Income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates of that period; and

iii. All resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

~16~
  • (b) When a foreign operation as an associate or joint arrangements is partially disposed of or sold, exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale. In addition, if the Group retains partial interest in the former foreign associate or joint arrangements after losing significant influence over the former foreign associate, or losing joint control of the former joint arrangements such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in these foreign operations.

  • (c) When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is a subsidiary, cumulative exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately transferred to the non-controlling interest in this foreign operation. In addition, if the Group retains partial interest in the former foreign subsidiary after losing control of the former foreign subsidiary, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in the foreign operation.

(5) Classification of current and non-current items

  • A. Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets:

  • (a) Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realized, or are intended to be sold or consumed within the normal operating cycle;

  • (b) Assets held mainly for trading purposes;

  • (c) Assets that are expected to be realized within twelve months from the balance sheet date;

  • (d) Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents and those that are to be exchanged or used to pay off liabilities more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.

  • B. Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities; otherwise they are classified as non-current liabilities:

  • (a) Liabilities that are expected to be paid off within the normal operating cycle;

  • (b) Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities;

  • (c) Liabilities that are to be paid off within twelve months from the balance sheet date;

  • (d) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

(6) Cash equivalents

  • A. Cash equivalents refer to short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amount of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

  • B. Time deposits and bills under repurchase agreements that meet the above criteria and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitment in operations are classified as cash equivalents.

~17~

(7) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

  • A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading or financial assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition. Financial assets are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorized as financial assets held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Financial assets that meet one of the following criteria are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition:

  • (a) Hybrid (combined) contracts; or

  • (b) They eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency; or

  • (c) They are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.

  • B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized and derecognized using trade date accounting.

  • C. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at fair value. Related transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. These financial assets are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognized in profit or loss.

(8) Receivables

  • Accounts receivable are receivables originated by the entity. They are created by the entity by selling goods or providing services to customers in the ordinary course of business. Accounts receivable are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. However, short-term accounts receivable that bear no interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.

(9) Available-for-sale financial assets

  • A. Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories.

  • B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, available-for-sale financial assets are recognized and derecognized using trade date accounting.

  • C. Available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. These financial assets are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income. Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured or derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity instruments are presented in ‘financial assets measured at cost’.

~18~

(10) Impairment of financial assets

  • A.The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.

  • B.The criteria that the Group uses to determine whether there is objective evidence of an impairment loss is as follows:

  • (a) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;

  • (b) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;

  • (c) Observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial asset in the group, including adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the group or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group;

  • (d) Information about significant changes with an adverse effect that have taken place in the technology, market, economic or legal environment in which the issuer operates, and indicates that the cost of the investment in the equity instrument may not be recovered; or

  • (e) A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.

  • C. When the Group assesses that there has been objective evidence of impairment and an impairment loss has occurred, accounting for impairment is made as follows according to the category of financial assets:

  • (a) Financial assets measured at cost

    • The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at current market return rate of similar financial asset, and is recognized in profit or loss. Impairment loss recognized for this category shall not be reversed subsequently. Impairment loss is recognized by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.
  • (b) Financial assets measured at amortized cost

    • The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate, and is recognized in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying

amount of the asset does not exceed its amortized cost that would have been at the date of reversal had the impairment loss not been recognized previously. Impairment loss is recognized and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.

(11) Derecognition of financial assets

The Group derecognizes a financial asset when one of the following conditions is met:

  • A. The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset expire.

  • B. The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset.

  • C. The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset have been transferred and the Group has not retained control of the financial asset.

  • (12) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The standard cost method is applied, and cost is determined using the weighted-average cost method. The cost of finished goods and work in process comprises raw materials, direct labor, other direct costs and related production overheads (allocated based on normal operating capacity). It excludes borrowing costs. The item by item approach is used in applying the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and applicable variable selling expenses.

(13) Investments accounted for under the equity method / associates

  • A. Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. In general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly or indirectly 20 percent or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost.

  • B. The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognized in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognized in other comprehensive income. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognize further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

  • C. Upon loss of significant influence over an associate, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former associate at its fair value. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss.

  • D. When the Group disposes its investment in an associate and loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate, are reclassified to profit or loss, on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of. If it retains significant influence over this associate, the

~20~
  • amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately in accordance with the aforementioned approach.

  • E. When the Group disposes its investment in an associate and loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognized as capital surplus in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss. If it retains significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognized as capital surplus in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss proportionately.

(14) Property, plant and equipment

  • A. Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Borrowing costs incurred during the construction period are capitalized.

  • B. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

  • C. Except for land, other property, plant and equipment apply cost model and are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives. If each component of property, plant and equipment is significant, it is depreciated separately.

  • D. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. If expectations for the assets’ residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets’ future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, from the date of the change. The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

are as follows:

Machinery and equipment
Transportation equipment

(15) Intangible assets

Professional skills and computer software, etc. are stated at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 3 ~ 5 years.

(16) Leased assets/ lessee

Payments made under an operating lease (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

~21~

(17) Impairment of non-financial assets

  • The Group assesses at each balance sheet date the recoverable amounts of those assets where there is an indication that they are impaired. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. When the circumstances or reasons for recognizing impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer exist or diminish, the impairment loss shall be reversed to the extent of the loss previously recognized in profit or loss. The increased carrying amount due to reversal should not be more than what the depreciated or amortized historical cost would have been if the impairment had not been recognized.

  • (18) Borrowings

Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

(19) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

  • A. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are financial liabilities held for trading or financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition. Financial liabilities are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorized as financial liabilities held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Financial liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition: (a) Hybrid (combined) contracts; or

  • (b) They eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency; or

  • (c) They are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management policy.

  • B. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at fair value. Related transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. These financial liabilities are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial liabilities are recognized in profit or loss.

(20) Notes and accounts payable

  • Notes and accounts payable are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. They are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. However, short-term accounts payable that bear no interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is insignificant.
~22~

(21) Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

(22) Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and reported in the net amount in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

(23) Employee benefits

  • A. Short-term employee benefits

Short - term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in respect of service rendered by employees in a period and should be recognized as expenses in that period when the employees render service.

  • B. Pensions

  • (a) Defined contribution plans

For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognized as pension expenses when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.

  • (b) Defined benefit plans

  • i. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Group in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit net obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount is determined by using interest rates of high-quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension liability; when there is no deep market in high-quality corporate bonds, the Group uses interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) instead.

  • ii.Remeasurements arising on defined benefit plans are recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise, and recorded as retained earnings.

  • iii.Pension cost for the interim period is calculated on a year-to-date basis by using the pension cost rate derived from the actuarial valuation at the end of the prior financial year, adjusted for significant market fluctuations since that time and for significant curtailments, settlements, or other significant one-off events. The related information is disclosed accordingly.

~23~
  • C. Employees’ compensation and directors’ remuneration

  • Employees’ compensation and directors’ remuneration are recognised as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates. If employees’ compensation is distributed by shares, the Group calculates the number of shares based on the closing market price at the previous day of the board meeting resolution.

- (24) Employee share based payment

For the equity-settled share-based payment arrangements, the employee services received are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the grant date, and are recognized as compensation cost over the vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to equity. The fair value of the equity instruments granted shall reflect the impact of market vesting conditions and nonmarket vesting conditions. Compensation cost is subject to adjustment based on the service conditions that are expected to be satisfied and the estimates of the number of equity instruments that are expected to vest under the non-market vesting conditions at each balance sheet date. Ultimately, the amount of compensation cost recognized is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

(25) Income tax

  • A. The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or items recognized directly in equity, in which cases the tax is recognized in other comprehensive income or equity.

  • B. The current income tax expense is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in accordance with applicable tax regulations. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. An additional 10% tax is levied on the unappropriated retained earnings and is recorded as income tax expense in the year the stockholders resolve to retain the earnings.

  • C. Deferred income tax is recognized, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated statements. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable

~24~

future. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

  • D. Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. At each balance sheet date, unrecognized and recognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed.

  • E. Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset on the balance sheet when the entity has the legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and they are levied by the same taxation authority on either the same entity or different entities that intend to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

  • F. A deferred tax asset shall be recognized for the carry forward of unused tax credits resulting from acquisitions of equipment or technology, research and development expenditures, employees’ training costs and equity investments to the extent that it is possible that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilized.

  • G. The interim period income tax expense is recognized based on the estimated average annual effective income tax rate expected for the full financial year applied to the pretax income of the interim period, and the related information is disclosed accordingly.

(26) Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or stock options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

  • (27) Dividends

Dividends are recorded in the Company’s financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the Company’s shareholders. Cash dividends are recorded as liabilities; stock dividends are recorded as stock dividends to be distributed and are reclassified to ordinary shares on the effective date of new shares issuance.

(28) Revenue recognition

  • A. Sales of goods

The Group manufactures and sells Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API), intermediates, etc. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable taking into account value-added tax, returns, rebates and discounts for the sale of goods to external customers in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue arising from the sales of goods is recognized when the Group has delivered the goods to the customer, the amount of sales revenue can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity. The delivery of goods is completed when the

~25~

significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, the Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold, and the customer has accepted the goods based on the sales contract or there is objective evidence showing that all acceptance provisions have been satisfied.

  • B. Sales of services

The Group provides biochemical technology development consultation and processing services. Revenue from rendering services is recognized under the percentage-of-completion method when the outcome of services provided can be estimated reliably. The stage of completion of a service contract is measured by the percentage of the actual services performed as of the financial reporting date to the total services to be performed by surveys of work performed.

  • (29) Operating segments

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF

ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make critical judgments in applying the Group’s accounting policies and make critical assumptions and estimates concerning future events. Assumptions and estimates may differ from the actual results and are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors. Such assumptions and estimates have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, and the related information is addressed below:

  • (1) Critical judgments in applying the Group’s accounting policies

  • Financial assets impairment of equity investments

  • The Group follows the guidance of IAS 39 to determine whether a financial asset-equity investment is impaired. This determination requires significant judgment. In making this judgment, the Group evaluates, among other factors, the duration and extent to which the fair value of an equity investment is less than its cost and the financial health of and short-term business outlook for the investee, including factors such as industry and sector performance, changes in technology and operational and financing cash flow.

  • (2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

  • A. Evaluation of inventories

    • (a) As inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, the Group must determine the net realizable value of inventories on balance sheet date using judgements and estimates. Due to the rapid process technology innovation, the Group evaluates the amounts of normal inventory consumption, obsolete inventories or inventories without market selling value on
~26~

balance sheet date, and writes down the cost of inventories to the net realizable value. Such an evaluation of inventories is principally based on the demand for the products within the specified period in the future. Therefore, there might be material change to the evaluation.

  • (b) As of June 30, 2016, the carrying amount of inventories was $2,061,827.

  • B. Realisability of deferred income tax assets

  • (a) Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Assessment of the realisability of deferred income tax assets involves critical accounting judgments and estimates of the management, including the assumptions of expected future sales revenue growth rate and profit rate, tax exempt duration, available tax credits, tax planning, etc. Any variations in global economic environment, industrial environment, and laws and regulations might cause material adjustments to deferred income tax assets.

  • (b) As of June 30, 2016, the Group recognized deferred income tax assets amounting to $423,787.

A. Based on the Group’s intention, its investment in Tanvex Biologics, Inc. and Syngen, Inc. should be classified as available-for-sale financial assets. However, as Tanvex Biologics, Inc. and Syngen, Inc. are not traded in an active market and no sufficient industry information and financial information of similar companies can be obtained, the fair value of the investments in Tanvex Biologics, Inc. and Syngen, Inc. cannot be measured reliably. Accordingly, the Group classified those stocks as ‘financial assets measured at cost’.

  • B. Foreseeacer Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (hereafter, Foreseeacer”), an associate of the Group accounted for under the equity method, entered into a share swap transaction with its controlling shareholder, Foresee Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (hereafter, Foresee Cayman”) during the fourth quarter of 2014, whereby Foresee Cayman issued new shares to swap and recall the outstanding shares of Foreseeacer. The Group obtained approval of such transaction during the board of directors meeting on November 7, 2014, and the related share swap was completed on January 15, 2015. After the swap, the Group obtained 5,400 thousand preferred shares of Foresee Cayman, consisting of 6.12% of its outstanding preferred shares. However, Foresee Cayman announced its second phase of re-organization plan (the Phase II Plan) during February 2015, in which, one of its fully owned subsidiaries, Foresee Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. hereafter, Foresee” will issue new shares to swap and recall all outstanding shares of Foresee Cayman. After engaging in the swap, the Company obtained 4,072 thousand common shares, consisting of 6.12% of its outstanding common shares. Based on the guidance and accounting policies of the Group, such share swap transaction should be deemed as disposal of associates accounted for under the equity method, and the new investment will be measured at its fair value. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. Any amounts previously recognized as capital surplus or as other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss. However, as the Phase II Plan was completed as of June 30, 2015, the uncertainties regarding the fair value of the final share interests received in the swap has been eliminated. The related gain of $95,381 from the share swap transaction has been recognized upon completion of the Phase II Plan. After a comprehensive assessment, the Group does not have the right to exercise significant influence over the investee company, Foresee Cayman, and accordingly, the related share of interest is classified as “available-for-sale financial assets”. In addition, as the shares of Foresee Cayman are not publicly traded in an active market, its fair value cannot be measured reliably. As a result, the Group classified those shares as “financial assets measured at cost”.

  • C. As of June 30, 2016, December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, no financial assets measured at cost held by the Group were pledged to others.

The remaining net income and the unappropriated retained earnings from prior years can be distributed in accordance with a resolution passed during a meeting of the Board of Directors and approved at the stockholders' meeting. Of the amount to be distributed by the Company, stockholders’ dividends shall comprise 50% to 100% of the unappropriated retained earnings, and the percentage of cash dividends shall not be less than 30% of dividends distributed.

  • C. In accordance with the regulations, the Company shall set aside special reserve for the debit balance on other equity items at the balance sheet date before distributing earnings.

The amounts previously set aside by the Company as special reserve on initial application of IFRSs in accordance with Jin-Guan-Zheng-Fa-Zi Letter No. 1010012865, dated April 6, 2012, shall be reversed proportionately when the relevant assets are used, disposed of or reclassified subsequently.

(2) Financial instruments

  • A. Fair value information of financial instruments

  • Except those in the table below, the Group’s financial instruments which are not measured at fair value (including cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, other financial assets-current, other financial assets-non-current, short-term borrowings, notes payable, accounts payable, other payables, long-term borrowings (including current portion) and guarantee deposits received) is approximate to their fair value. Please refer to Note 12 (3) for details of fair value information of financial instruments measured at fair value.

  • B. Financial risk management policies

  • (a)The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, price risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial position and financial performance.

  • (b)Group treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks closely with the Group’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas and matters, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

  • C. Significant financial risks and degrees of financial risks

  • (a) Market risk

    • I. Foreign exchange rate risk

      • i)The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to USD. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognized assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations.

      • ii)To manage their foreign exchange risk arising from future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities, entities in the Group are required to hedge their foreign exchange risk exposure using forward foreign exchange contracts. However, hedge accounting is not applied as transactions did not meet all criteria of hedge accounting. Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions or recognized assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency.

      • iii)The Group’s businesses involve some non-functional currency operations (the Company’s and certain subsidiaries’ functional currency: NTD; other subsidiaries’ functional currency: CNY). The information on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies whose values would be materially affected by the exchange rate fluctuations is as follows:

  • iv)As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, if the NTD:USD exchange rate appreciates/depreciates by 5% with all other factors remaining constant, the Group’s net profit after tax for the sixmonth periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 would increase/decrease by $37,216 and $27,191, respectively. If the NTD:EUR exchange rate appreciates/depreciates by 5% with all other factors remaining constant, the Group’s net profit after tax for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 would increase/decrease by $219 and $1,114, respectively. If the NTD:CNY exchange rate appreciates/depreciates by 5% with all other factors remaining constant, the Group’s net profit after tax for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 would increase/decrease by $276 and $17, respectively.

  • v)Total exchange loss including realized and unrealized arising from significant foreign exchange variation on the monetary items held by the Group for the three-month and sixmonth periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 amounted to $32,534, $3,308, $34,394 and $17,073, respectively.

  • II. Price risk

  • The Group has investments classified as financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and available-for-sale financial assets (shown in ‘financial assets measured at cost-non-current’). Therefore, the Group is exposed to price risk on equity instruments investments. To manage this risk, the Group has set stop-loss amounts for these instruments. The Group expects no significant market risk.

  • III. Interest rate risk

  • The Group analyses its interest rate exposure on a dynamic basis. Thus, the interest rate of the Group’s liabilities fluctuates accordingly with the market interest rate, creating divergence in the Group’s future cash flow. However, as the Group’s liabilities bear little significance and a small range of interest rate, the Group does not bear significant interest rate risk.

  • (b) Credit risk

  • I. Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. According to the Group’s credit policy, each local entity in the Group is responsible for managing and analyzing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors with limits set by the board of directors. The utilization of credit limits is regularly monitored. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, and outstanding receivables. The Group also transacts with many different banks and financial institutions to diversify risk.

  • II. No credit limits were exceeded during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

  • III. For more information regarding the Group’s credit ratings on its financial assets, please refer to detailed explanation of financial assets in Note 6.

~54~
  • (c) Liquidity risk

  • I. Cash flow forecasting is performed by the Group’s treasury department which monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities at all times so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities.

  • II. The following table comprises the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities and derivative financial liabilities with gross-amount settlement that are grouped by their maturity. Nonderivative financial liabilities are analyzed from the balance sheet date to the contract maturity date, and derivative financial liabilities are analyzed from the balance sheet date to the expected maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

(3) Fair value estimation

  • A. Details of the fair value of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value are provided in Note 12(2) A.

  • B. The table below analyses financial instruments measured at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:

  • Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. A market is regarded as active if it meets all the following conditions: the items traded in the market are homogeneous; willing buyers and sellers can normally be found at any time; and prices are available to the public.

  • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices). The fair value of the Group’s investment in foreign exchange contracts is included in Level 2.

  • Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

  • C. The related information of financial and non-financial instruments measured at fair value by level on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the assets and liabilities at June 30, 2016, December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015 is as follows:

  • D. The methods and assumptions the Group used to measure fair value are as follows:

  • (a)Except for financial instruments with active markets, the fair value of other financial instruments is measured by using valuation techniques or by reference to counterparty quotes. The fair value of financial instruments measured by using valuation techniques can be referred to current fair value of instruments with similar terms and characteristics in substance, discounted cash flow method or other valuation methods, including calculated by applying model using market information available at the consolidated balance sheet date.

  • (b)When assessing non-standard and low-complexity financial instruments, for example, debt instruments without active market, interest rate swap contracts, foreign exchange swap contracts and options, the Group adopts valuation technique that is widely used by market participants. The inputs used in the valuation method to measure these financial instruments are normally observable in the market.

  • (c)Forward foreign exchange contracts are usually valued based on the current forward exchange rate.

  • E. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, there was no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2.

  • F. The Group did not have financial instruments that meet the definition of level 3 instruments as of June 30, 2016, December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015.
