Attachment I

Syncmold Enterprise Corp. 2021 Business Report

We hereby report the Company's 2021 operational performance as follows:

The global pandemic in 2021 was far from over as various variants continued to rage. The global supply chain was affected by the pandemic and port congestion, resulting in increased freight and raw material costs. The Company’s factory encountered a fire incident and an adjustment to production capacity in the beginning of 2021 and then faced the decreased product profit margin due to rising raw material costs and the exchange rate factor; as such, the Company's 2021 gross margin and profit decreased compared with 2020. Fortunately, we adjusted our business strategy in a timely manner and re-optimized our product lines to improve production efficiency and strive for stable profits.

Looking ahead to 2022, during the post-pandemic period, with the vaccination rate increasing significantly and the significantly decreasing demand for remote work and learning, the demand for monitors, such as LCD monitors will shrink. As per the latest survey by TrendForce, the global LCD monitor shipments in 2021 were 1.459 million units, and it is estimated that the shipments in 2022 will be around 1.442 million units, a 1.2% decrease on a year-on-year basis. In addition, although the overall LCD monitor shipments are gradually decreasing, there is still room for growth in demand for LCD monitor dedicated to e-sports. It is estimated that 27.6 million units will be shipped out in 2022, an annual growth rate of 22%; and the market demand for curved gaming monitors is still increasing, with an estimated 17.7 million units shipped out in 2022, an annual growth rate of 25%. Looking at the above two trends, the Company still has high expectations for the market demand for monitors and AIO.

  • I. Operating results for 2021:

  • Business plan and implementation results

  • The Company rendered a consolidated operating income of 2021 worth NTD 10,194,799

  • thousand, a growth of 5.5% from the consolidated operating income in 2020, which was NTD 9,663,341 thousand. The sales gross profit of 2021 was 15.71%, a decrease of 10.58% from 26.29% in 2020. The Company’s earnings per share of 2021 were NTD 2.03.

  • Budget execution: The Company did not disclose its financial forecast for 2022, so it is not applicable.

  • Financial revenue and expenditure and profitability:

4. Research and development:

The Company continued to increase its expenditure on research and development and constantly expanded its development of new technologies in 2021, with more than 140 invention and utility model patents acquired. Most of them had to do with the sockets of LCD monitors, which clearly shows the leading position of the Company in monitor bearings and sockets. The Company’s research and development are focused primarily on LCD monitor sockets, e-sports

6

monitor sockets, AIO sockets, and TV sockets.

In addition to continuing with the research and development of monitors, AIO, and TV sockets, the Company is committed to the R&D of other products and introduction of new technologies. We tap into the synergy from the acquisition of Gatetech Technology Inc. and Leohab Enterprise Co., Ltd. to improve our manufacturing and assembly capabilities for magnesium alloy die-casting, small precision bearings, and stamped mechanical components, which may be applied to wearable devices, automotive markets, bearings of various electronic products, and fitness equipment.

  • II. Outline of the 2022 business plan:

  • Business policy

  • (1) Maximize the utilization of automated production equipment for enhanced production efficiency and quality of products.

  • (2) Increase the R&D manpower throughout the Group for expanding the growth momentum in the future.

  • (3) Strengthen the risk management mechanism and coping strategies.

  • (4) Continue to integrate the Group's resources to improve operational efficiency and optimize cost structure.

  • Future development strategy

In terms of socket products, although the market demand for LCD monitors may be shrinking, we are still optimistic about the growth trend of sockets for gaming monitors, so we will continue to develop patented technology for monitor sockets for various high-end gaming models.

Looking ahead, we will improve operational efficiency by integrating the group’s resources, and this will not only create benefits from the vertically integrated production process but also generate synergy from horizontally expanded marketing business and product applications. Furthermore, the Company will continue to develop new products to extend the group's bearing products from monitors to applications for various electronic products, 5Grelated parts, fitness equipment, electric vehicles, and other potential markets to maintain our revenue growth momentum.

Due to the high frequency and significant amounts of transactions with major customers, the occurrence of sales revenue was deemed as a key audit matter for the year ended December 31, 2021. Refer to Note 4 to the financial statements for the related revenue recognition policies.

In response to this key audit matter, our main audit procedures performed in the assessment of the recognition of sales revenue of the Corporation were as follows:

  1. We understood the design and implementation of internal controls and assessed the operating effectiveness of relevant controls.

  2. We performed detailed verification tests on the selected samples of sales revenue, and checked transaction vouchers and amount received or reconciliation with customers to confirm the occurrence of sales revenue.

Other Matter

We did not audit the financial statements of associates accounted for using the equity method, these were instead audited by other auditors. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for associates accounted for using the equity method, is based solely on the report of other auditors. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the amounts of investments accounted for using the equity method were NT$172,058 thousand and NT$418,523 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 1.91% and 4.54% of the Corporation’s total assets, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, share of profit of associates accounted for using the equity method amounted to NT$16,496 thousand and NT$9,671 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 8.12% and 1.00% of the Corporation’s total comprehensive income, respectively.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers,

  • 22 -

and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Corporation’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 Corporation or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Corporation’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ 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 the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China 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 financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 Corporation’s internal control.

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

  4. 23 -

  5. 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 Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the 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 auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Corporation to cease to continue as a going concern.

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

  7. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or business activities within the Corporation to express an opinion on the 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 financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ 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.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Chih-Yuan Chen and Yao-Lin Huang.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Syncmold Enterprise Corporation

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Syncmold Enterprise Corporation (the “Corporation”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors (refer to the other matter paragraph), the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, 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 International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. Based on our audits and the report of other auditors, 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 consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

  • 33 -

Key audit matter of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 is stated as follows:

Occurrence of Sales Revenue

The sales revenue of the Group is mainly generated from the sales of monitor hinge products. Most of the sales were highly concentrated on major customers, which revenue accounted for 56.63% of total sales revenue in 2021. Due to the high frequency and significant amounts of transactions with major customers, the occurrence of sales revenue was deemed as a key audit matter for the year ended December 31, 2021. Refer to Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements for the related revenue recognition policies.

In response to this key audit matter, our main audit procedures performed in the assessment of the recognition of sales revenue of the Group were as follows:

  1. We understood and assessed the operating effectiveness of design and implementation of the relevant internal controls.

  2. We performed detailed verification tests on the selected samples of sales revenue, and checked transaction vouchers and sales returns and discounts of major customers to confirm the occurrence of sales revenue.

Other Matter

We did not audit the financial statements of certain subsidiaries of the Group as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 which were included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, but such financial statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for such subsidiaries, is based solely on the reports of other auditors. The total assets of such subsidiaries amounted to NT$742,781 thousand, which represented 6.31% of the Group’s consolidated total assets. The operating revenue of such subsidiaries amounted to NT$51,837 thousand, which represented 0.54% of the Group’s consolidated total operating revenue. We did not audit the financial statements of associates accounted for using the equity method, these were instead audited by other auditors. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for associates accounted for using the equity method, is based solely on the report of other auditors. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the amounts of investments accounted for using the equity method were NT$172,058 thousand and NT$164,556 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 1.46% and 1.40% of the Group’s consolidated total assets, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, share of comprehensive income of associates accounted for using the equity method amounted to NT$16,496 thousand and NT$7,704 thousand, respectively, which accounted for 8.99% and 0.79% of the Group’s consolidated total comprehensive income, respectively.

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Syncmold Enterprise Corporation as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 on which we have issued an unmodified opinion with other matter paragraph.

  • 34 -

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 IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, 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 supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ 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 auditors’ 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 the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China 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 the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, 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 auditors’ 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 auditors’ 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

  6. 35 -

transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  1. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of 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.

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 for the year ended December 31, 2021 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ 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.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Chih-Yuan Chen and Yao-Lin Huang.
