Effects by External Competition, Legal Circumstances and Overall Business Environment:
-
Looking back at 2023, the automotive industry saw a relief in pandemic conditions and an improvement in the semiconductor shortage situation. The supply of imported brand vehicles stabilized gradually, and the sales volume in Taiwan's automotive market (about 476,000 units) showed a significant increase compared to the previous year. However, international factors such as U.S.-China tensions, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and the Red Sea crisis contributed to rising raw material costs, increased export freight rates, global inflation, and exchange rate fluctuations. Consequently, the supply chain system continues to face considerable challenges, adversely affecting performance.
-
Prospecting the year 2024, on the grounds of expected ease in the parts and component deficiency, along with the launch of new vehicle models and the extension of the vehicle replacement subsidy policy, are expected to stimulate consumer car purchases. Consequently, Taiwan's annual automobile sales volume is forecasted to remain between 440,000 to 450,000 units. In terms of export sales, the Company will continue to develop new customers in the North American market in addition to contending for overseas orders from the Koito Group, meanwhile actively launching new technologies to domestic and foreign customers so as to gain more orders of lamps for new car models and their molds. Furthermore, the Company has taken various cost rationalization improvement to improve production efficiency and reduce production costs.
In the near future, the Company will implement an austere corporate governance, promote sustainable development, fulfill corporate social responsibility and invest in research and development consistently. In addition, with the corporate philosophy of sincerity and sustainable development, the Company, supported by all shareholders and all-out effort by our employees in solidarity, guarantees its stable growth and will create reasonable gains and values for shareholders, employees and the society. We sincerely expect the support, encouragement and feedbacks from all the shareholders, with adherence to the original intention.

Attachment 3. Auditors' Report and Financial Statements of 2023
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Ta Yih Industrial Co., Ltd.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ta Yih Industrial Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of December 31, 2023, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2023, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations that came into effect as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.
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 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. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
10
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Group’s 2023 consolidated financial statements. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters for the Group’s 2023 consolidated financial statements are stated as follows:
Key audit matter: Cut-off of sales revenue from hub warehouse
Description
Please refer to Notes 4(24) and 6(14) to the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policy and the details of sales revenue relating to this key audit matter, respectively. The sales revenue generated from the hub warehouse was $1,670,712 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2023, which accounted for 35% of the total operating revenue.
The Group mainly manufactures and sells automobile and locomotive lamps. The Group also sells its products to overseas markets and recognizes revenue upon acceptance of the goods by the customers (transfer of risks and rewards) if picked up from hub. The sales model of overseas markets depends on the delivery of goods from hub warehouse. The Group recognizes sales revenue based on movements of inventories contained in the statements or other information provided by the hub custodians. As there are numerous sales revenue transactions from hubs and the transaction amounts prior to and after the balance sheet date are significant to the financial statements. Thus, we considered the cutoff of hub sales revenue as the key audit matter of our 2023 annual audit.
11
How our audit addressed the matter
Our key audit procedures performed in respect of the above key audit matter included the following:
-
We validated the effectiveness of the management’s controls in respect of the cut-off of sales revenue from hub warehouse.
-
We performed cut-off tests of hub sales revenue for a specific period prior to and after the balance sheet date, including verifying records of picking goods from hubs and confirming records of inventory movements are recorded in appropriate period.
-
We conducted physical count of inventory quantities held at hubs and agreed to accounting records.
Other matter – Scope of the audit
The financial statements of the Group as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 were audited by other auditors whose report dated March 8, 2023 expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements.
Other matter – Parent company only financial reports
We have audited and expressed an unqualified opinion on the parent company only financial statements of Ta Yih Industrial Co., Ltd. as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the consolidated financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations that came into effect as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to
12
enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance, including audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free for 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 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:
- 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
13
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.
-
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.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
14
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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Ta Yih Industrial Co., Ltd.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of Ta Yih Industrial Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year 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 parent company only financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company 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. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
23
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Company’s 2023 parent company only financial statements. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters for the Company’s 2023 parent company only financial statements are stated as follows:
Key audit matter: Cut-off of hub sales revenue
Description
Please refer to Notes 4(23) and 6(14) to the parent company only financial statements for the accounting policy and the details of sales revenue relating to this key audit matter, respectively. The hub sales revenue was $1,670,712 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2023, which accounted for 35% of the total operating revenue.
The Company mainly manufactures and sells automobile and locomotive lamps. The Company also sells its products to overseas markets and recognizes revenue upon acceptance of the goods by the customers (transfer of risks and rewards) if picked up from hub. The sales model of overseas markets depends on the delivery of goods from hub warehouse. The Company recognizes sales revenue based on movements of inventories contained in the statements or other information provided by the hub custodians. As there are numerous sales revenue transactions from hubs and the transaction amounts prior to and after the balance sheet date are significant to the financial statements. Thus, we considered the cut-off of hub sales revenue as the key audit matter of our 2023 annual audit.
24
How our audit addressed the matter
Our key audit procedures performed in respect of the above key audit matter included the following:
-
We validated the effectiveness of the management’s controls in respect of the cut-off of sales revenue from hub warehouse.
-
We performed cut-off tests of hub sales revenue for a specific period prior to and after the balance sheet date, including verifying records of picking goods from hubs and confirming records of inventory movements are recorded in appropriate period.
-
We conducted physical count of inventory quantities held at hubs and agreed to accounting records.
Other matter – Scope of the audit
The financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 were audited by other auditors whose report dated March 8, 2023 expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the parent company only financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
25
Those charged with governance, including audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the parent company only financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an 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 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 parent company only 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:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
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.
26
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
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 auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the parent company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
27
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our 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.
