Consolidated Financial Statements for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and Independent Auditors’ Review Report
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REVIEW REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders Syncmold Enterprise Corporation
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Syncmold Enterprise Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group”) as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine months then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information (collectively referred to as 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 International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the consolidated financial statements based on our reviews.
Scope of Review
Except as explained in the following paragraph, we conducted our reviews in accordance with the Standards on Review Engagements of the Republic of China 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity”. A review of consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Basis for Qualified Conclusion
As disclosed in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of non-significant subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements referred to in the first paragraph were not reviewed. As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, the combined total assets of these non-significant subsidiaries were NT$3,162,178 thousand and NT$3,914,450 thousand, respectively, representing 25.55% and 32.56%, respectively, of the consolidated total assets, and the combined total liabilities of these subsidiaries were NT$1,444,905 thousand and NT$1,464,864 thousand, respectively, representing 23.05% and 24.09%, respectively, of the consolidated total liabilities; for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the amounts of combined comprehensive income (loss) of these subsidiaries were NT$74,266 thousand and NT$(217,119) thousand, respectively, representing 14.69% and (78.32%), respectively, of the consolidated total comprehensive income; for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the amounts of combined comprehensive income (loss) of these subsidiaries were NT$(103,233) thousand and NT$(441,816) thousand, respectively, representing (17.34%) and (71.34%), respectively, of the consolidated total comprehensive income. In addition, as disclosed in Note 12 to the consolidated
- 1 -
financial statements, as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, the amounts of investments accounted for using the equity method were NT$170,362 thousand and NT$161,595 thousand, respectively; for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the shares of profit of associates amounted to NT$12,135 thousand and NT$13,228 thousand, respectively; for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the shares of profit of associates amounted to NT$29,634 thousand and NT$20,772 thousand, respectively, which were calculated based on the financial statements that have not been reviewed. The disclosure of information related to the aforementioned non-significant subsidiaries and associates in Note 30 was based on these subsidiaries’ and associates’ unreviewed financial statements for the same reporting periods as those of the Group.
Qualified Conclusion
Based on our reviews, except for adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had the financial statements of the non-significant subsidiaries as described in the preceding paragraph and the financial statements for which investments were accounted for using the equity method been reviewed, nothing has come to our attention that caused us to believe that the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, its consolidated financial performance for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
The engagement partners on the reviews resulting in this independent auditors’ review report are Chih-Yuan Chen and Yao-Ling Huang.

4. SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION
- a. Statement of compliance
These interim consolidated financial statements 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 and issued into effect by the FSC. Disclosure information included in these interim consolidated financial statements is less than the disclosure information required in a complete set of annual consolidated financial statements.
- b. Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value and net defined benefit liabilities (assets) which are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets.
- 10 -
The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, are described as follows:
-
1) Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
2) Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
-
3) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
-
c. Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Corporation and the entities controlled by the Corporation (i.e., its subsidiaries).
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Corporation.
All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Corporation and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
See Note 11 and Tables 7 and 8 for the detailed information of subsidiaries (including the percentages of ownership and main businesses).
- d. Other material accounting policies
Except for the following, refer to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
- 1) Retirement benefits
Pension cost for an interim period is calculated on a year-to-date basis by using the actuarially determined pension cost rate at the end of the prior financial year, adjusted for significant market fluctuations since that time and for significant plan amendments, settlements, or other significant one-off events.
- 2) Income tax expense
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. Interim period income taxes are assessed on an annual basis and calculated by applying to an interim period’s pre-tax income the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings.
5. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
For the summary of material accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty, refer to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The average credit period of sales of goods is 90-160 days. No interest was charged on trade receivables. The Group uses other publicly available financial information or its own trading records to rate its major customers. The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties. Credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the management annually.
The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed, which permits the use of lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables. The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor’s current financial position, adjusted for general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate and an assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of economic conditions at the reporting date. As the Group’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision for loss allowance based on past due status is not further distinguished according to the Group’s different customer base.
The Group writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery. For trade receivables that have been written off, the Group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in profit or loss.

On September 9, 2021, the Company issued 12,000 units NTD denominated unsecured convertible corporate bonds with 0% coupon rate, 3 years issue period and total principal amount of NT$1,200,000 thousand.

The conversion price of bonds is set based on the arithmetic mean of the business day’s closing share price multiplied by 102% premium rate before the effective date on August 20, 2021. In accordance with above method, the conversion price at the time of issuance of the convertible corporate bond is NT$58.5 per share on September 30, 2023.
If the bonds are not converted between December 10, 2021 and July 31, 2024, and the closing price of ordinary shares has exceeded 30% of the current conversion price for 30 consecutive business days, the Company may send a copy of “Bond Redemption Notice” with expiration of one month by registered mail, and the expiration date of the period is determined as the base date for recovery of bonds. The Corporation will redeem the bonds at their par value within 5 business days following the base date.
If the bonds are not converted between December 10, 2021 and July 31, 2024, and the closing price of ordinary shares is lower than 10% of original total issue amount, the Corporation will therefore be entitled to send out a 30-day-expiration “Bond Redemption Notice” based on names recorded on bondholder’s name list 5 business days prior to the mailing day. The Corporation will redeem the bonds at their par value within 5 business days following the base date.
The convertible bonds contain both liability and equity components: The equity components are presented in equity under the heading of capital surplus-options. The liability components are recognized as liabilities of embedded derivative financial instruments and non-derivative products. Such embedded derivative financial instruments were assessed at fair value of NT$0 (included in financial assets at FVTPL - non-current); non-derivative product liabilities have been measured at NT$1,188,003 thousand, NT$1,178,724 thousand and NT$1,175,567 thousand (included in bonds payable and current portion of bonds payable) at amortized cost on September 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively at an original effective interest rate of 1.0663%.

c. Retained earnings and dividends policy
Under the dividends policy as set forth in the amended Articles, where the Corporation made a profit in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for paying taxes, offsetting losses of previous years, setting aside as a legal reserve of 10% of the remaining profit, setting aside or reversing a special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings shall be used by the Corporation’s board of directors as the basis for proposing a distribution plan, which should be resolved by the shareholders in their meeting for the distribution of dividends and bonuses to shareholders. For the policies on the distribution of compensation of employees and remuneration of directors after the amendment, refer to compensation of employees and remuneration of directors in Note 22-b.
- 23 -
As the Corporation is currently in the growth stage, the Corporation considers its industry development and long-term interests of shareholders as well as its programs to maintain operating efficiency and meet its financial goals when determining the distribution of bonuses in shares or cash. The board of directors shall propose allocation ratio every year and propose such allocation ratio at the shareholder’s meeting. For the distribution of bonuses to shareholders, cash dividends are preferred. Distribution of earnings may also be made in the form of share dividends; provided that the ratio of cash dividends distributed is 5% to 100% of the total dividends distributed.
An appropriation of earnings to a legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Corporation’s paid-in capital. The legal reserve may be used to offset deficits. If the Corporation has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Corporation’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.
Items referred to under Rule No. 1010012865 and Rule No. 1010047490 issued by the FSC and in the directive titled “Questions and Answers for Special Reserves Appropriated Following Adoption of IFRSs” should be appropriated to or reversed from a special reserve by the Corporation.
The appropriations of earnings for 2022 and 2021, which were approved by the shareholders in their meetings on June 16, 2023 and June 10, 2022, respectively, were as follows:
Legal reserve Special reserve Cash dividends Dividends per share |
For the Year Ended | For the Year Ended | December 31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 $ 37,643 $ (168,395) $ 371,172 $ 3.00 |
2021 $ 25,211 $ 51,576 $ 247,448 $ 2.00 |
The shareholders’ meeting proposed to allocate capital surplus of $408,290 thousand for each dividend of $3.30 per share.

2022 $ 635,615 51,576 $ 687,191 |
On the initial application of the IFRSs, the net increase arising from the retained earnings was not enough for the special reserve appropriation; thus, the Corporation appropriated a special reserve at the amount of $230,916 thousand representing the remaining amount in retained earnings that resulted from the conversion to IFRSs. Additional special reserve should be appropriated for the amount equal to the difference between net debit balance reserves and the special reserve appropriated on the first-time adoption of IFRSs. Any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent that the net debit balance reverses and is thereafter, distributed.

The Group may settle the compensation paid to employees in cash or shares; therefore, the Group assumes that the entire amount of the compensation will be settled in shares, and the resulting potential shares will be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as the effect is dilutive. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the number of shares to be distributed to employees is resolved in the following year.

d. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s major financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, financial assets mandatorily classified as at FVTPL, financial assets at amortized costs, equity investment, trade receivables, trade payables, accounts payable, bonds payable, borrowings and lease liabilities. The Group’s corporate treasury function provides services to the business, coordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal risk reports which analyze exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
1) Market risk
The Group’s activities exposed it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (a) below), interest rates (see (b) below) and other prices (see (c) below).
There is no change in the method of the measurement of market risk.
There has been no change to the Group’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which these risks are managed and measured.
a) Foreign currency risk
Several subsidiaries of the Group have sales and purchases denominated in foreign currencies, which exposes the Group to foreign currency risk.
- 31 -
The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities (including those eliminated upon consolidation) and of the derivatives exposed to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period are set out in Note 29.
Sensitivity analysis
The Group is mainly exposed to the USD and RMB.
The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 1% increase and decrease in the New Taiwan dollar (the functional currency) against the relevant foreign currencies. The sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and representing management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates is 1%. The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding foreign currency-denominated monetary items and foreign exchange forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges, and their translation was adjusted at the end of the reporting period for a 1% change in foreign currency rates. A negative number below indicates a decrease in pre-tax profit associated with the New Taiwan dollar strengthening 1% against the relevant currency. For a 1% weakening of the New Taiwan dollar against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on pre-tax profit, and the balances below would be positive.
| USD impact USD:NTD USD:RMB USD:VND RMB impact RMB:NTD RMB:USD |
For the Nine Months Ended September 30 |
For the Nine Months Ended September 30 |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 $ (1,763) $ (18,133) $ (271) $ (1,218) $ (1,239) |
2022 $ (2,526) $ (24,311) $ (236) $ (1,631) $ (452) |
This was mainly attributable to the exposure on outstanding receivables in USD and RMB which were not hedged at the end of the reporting period.
In management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign currency risk because the exposure at the end of the reporting period did not reflect the exposure during the period.
- b) Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk because entities in the Group borrow funds at both fixed and floating interest rates.
- 32 -
The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows:
| September 30, | December 31, | September 30, | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 2022 | 2022 | |
| Fair value interest rate risk | |||
| Financial assets | $ 2,609,635 |
$ 2,003,604 |
$ 1,417,611 |
| Financial liabilities | 3,338,391 | 3,247,591 | 3,243,336 |
| Cash flow interest rate risk | |||
| Financial assets | 2,008,812 | 2,362,027 | 2,149,859 |
| Sensitivity analysis |
The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the Group’s exposure to interest rates for both derivative and non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate assets and liabilities, the analysis was prepared assuming the amount of each liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding at the end of the reporting period. A 100-basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
If interest rates had been 100-basis point higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s pre-tax profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 would have increased/decreased by $15,066 thousand and $16,124 thousand, respectively.
c) Other price risk
The Group was exposed to equity price risk through its investments in domestic listed shares, domestic emerging market shares, mutual funds, domestic and overseas unlisted shares and private funds. In addition, the Group has appointed a special team to monitor the price risk and will consider hedging the risk exposure should the need arise.
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the exposure to equity price risks at the end of the reporting period.
If equity prices had been 1% higher/lower, pre-tax profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 would have increased/decreased by $3,718 thousand and $1,368 thousand, respectively, as a result of the changes in fair value of financial assets at FVTPL.
2) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. As at the end of the reporting period, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk, which would cause a financial loss to the Group due to the failure of the counterparty to discharge its obligation and due to the financial guarantees provided by the Group, could be equal to the total of the carrying amount of the respective recognized financial assets as stated in the balance sheets.
In order to reduce credit risk, the management team of the Group designated a special team to decide the credit ratings of counterparties and other monitoring procedures to make sure there are appropriate actions taken to collect the overdue receivables. Additionally, on each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the recoverable amounts to ensure appropriate allowances have been made for doubtful accounts. Therefore, the Group considers its credit risk to be significantly reduced.
- 33 -
The Group continuously assesses the financial conditions of customers with outstanding receivables.
As the counterparties of the Group are financial institutions and companies with good credit ratings, the Group has limited credit risk.
- 3) Liquidity risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.
The Group relies on bank borrowings as a significant source of liquidity. The Group had available unutilized bank loan facilities set out in below.
