In 2012, the global economy was affected by three major negative factors, namely high interest rates, high inflation and geopolitics. Consumers' disposable income dropped drastically, which led to the accumulation of inventories and slow de-stocking, while a large number of new vessels were introduced into the market, resulting in a serious imbalance between supply and demand of transportation capacity, which led to the sharp decline in freight rates from the high point of the outbreak. In 2023, T3ex Global Holdings consolidated revenue was NT$14.621 billion, gross profit was NT$2.917 billion, net profit after tax was NT$1.549 billion, and earnings per share was NT$10.76, with a net value of NT$62.9 per share.

As a result of the reversal of sea and air freight rates, the business receipts of import/export of sea freight and import/export of air freight amounted to $7.65 billion and $3.318 billion respectively in 2012, representing a decrease of 62% and 33% over a year earlier; Domestic trade logistics business group benefited from the full recovery of China's logistics industry and achieved double-digit growth in revenue, with an annual growth rate of 15% and a revenue of NT$2.958 billion in 2023, the subsidiary, T-CUBE has adopted a diversified and specialized business model to raise the threshold of entry into the industry. Benefiting from the strong demand for lithium-ion batteries, T-CUBE has expanded its business cooperation with major global lithium ore producers and secured new contracts and orders, thus boosting its operating power; The Railway Business Unit was affected by the general economic downturn in Europe, with revenue of NT$996 million in 2023, in late 2023, the impact of the Red Sea incident will drive the demand for sea freight reordering, and revenue will gradually rebound. After 2023 years of organizational restructuring and repositioning of the target market, it is expected that the Railway Business Unit's operation will return to the growth track in 2024.

T3ex is an international logistics group with a focus on providing integrated logistics solutions by air, sea, land and rail. In 2023, the overall operation will continue to provide

9

diversified and high quality services with the business units maintaining good relationships with suppliers and customers amidst the unfavorable economic environment and serious capacity imbalance to maintain the operating performance of the Group above a profitable level, and at the same time, to increase the Group's interest income by utilizing flexible financial operations through the excellent market sensitivity and analytical judgment of the finance team; At the end of 2023, the shipping market was affected by the Red Sea Crisis and Chinese New Year preparations, which led to a rapid rebound of low freight rates and volumes. The Group's four business groups successfully responded to the rapid changes in the market through intermodal transport services, and utilised the "Freight Tracking System" to enable customers to grasp the overall logistics operation process more efficiently, providing customers with the best quality, 。 convenient and speedy services.

Outlook for 2024

In 2024, the shipping market will continue to be affected by a number of factors, including global economic uncertainty, geopolitical risk adjustments, climate change, and the continuing imbalance between supply and demand of freight capacity. With a healthy financial structure and the integration of the resources of the Group's various business groups to support each other and achieve synergy, T3ex can make the best operational adjustments in response to the market changes in real time, the following is a description of the business development of each business group in 2024.

Other Matter

T3EX Global Holdings Corp. has prepared its parent-company-only financial statements as of and for the years then ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, on which we have expressed an unqualified opinion.

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 Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the IFRSs, IASs, IFRC, 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 the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of 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 Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

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

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

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

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

16

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

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

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

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our 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 resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Pei-Chi Chen and Chi-Lung Yu.

(“the Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants of Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of 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 financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

  1. Revenue recognition

Please refer to Note 4(m) "Revenue recognition" of financial statement and Note 6(o) "Revenue from contracts with customers" for the details of operating revenues of financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

T3EX Global Holdings Corp. is an industrial holding company. Its main operating revenue is from the share of profit of associates accounted for using the equity method and the services revenue from subsidiaries by providing management services. We expect that its revenue recognition is the matter to the users of the financial statements. Consequently, this is one of the key assessment areas in our audit on parent-company-only financial statements of T3EX Global Holding Corp.

3-2

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Understanding the internal control on revenue recognition applied by the management and assessing whether its revenue recognition had been carried out in accordance with the established accounting policy; checking whether T3EX Global Holdings Corp. had calculated and recognized the share of profits and losses of its subsidiaries and associates by using the equity method; comparing the differences between the investment cost and the net equity of its subsidiaries and associates, to ensure that they had been properly handled. Issuing confirmation letter to T3EX Global Holdings Corp.’s subsidiaries to inquire the amount of the management services fee.

2. Equity method investees impairment assessment

Please refer to Note 4(l) "Impairment of non-financial assets" for accounting policies, Note 5 "assumptions on the accounting estimates and assumptions of the impairment of Equity method investees" and Note 6 (e) for the details of Equity method investees in the financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The goodwill and other intangible assets arising from acquisition transactions booked as the investment under the equity method of parent-company-only financial statements. The accounting policy applying to the goodwill and other intangible assets arising from acquisition transactions is with the uncertainty estimation. Consequently, this is one of the key assessment areas in our audit on parent-company-only financial statements of T3EX Global Holding Corp.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Understanding the internal control on the impairment assessment of the goodwill and other intangible assets; selecting significant goodwill and other intangible assets and obtaining impairment assessment reports issued by the external experts engaged by the management; assessing model, parameters and assumptions applying to the financial information forecast; and evaluating whether the assessment for goodwill and other intangible assets was based on the accounting policies.

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 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 Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance (including the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent-company-only Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement

3-2

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 Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and 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 Company’s internal control.

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

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

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

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on this 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 of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Pei-Chi Chen and Chi-Lung Yu.

43

Except as otherwise provided in the Company Act and in this Corporation's

45

articles of incorporation, the passage of a proposal shall require an affirmative vote of a majority of the voting rights represented by the attending shareholders. At the time of a vote, for each proposal, the chair or a person designated by the chair shall first announce the total number of voting rights represented by the attending shareholders, followed by a poll of the shareholders.

If the shareholders' meeting is adjourned or reconvened in accordance with the second paragraph, it is not necessary to discuss and resolve again the motions for which voting and counting have been completed and the voting results or the election lists of directors and supervisors have been announced.

When the Company holds a video-assisted shareholders' meeting and the
