  2. 2.Eco-friendly: Combining environmental protection, safety and speed to create brand value.

  3. X: Innovative technology to facilitate life.

  4. YEAR: Long-standing and sustainable management.

  5. (2) Expected Sales Volume and its Basis

The expected sales volume of consolidated hot melt adhesive-related self-produced products for 2022 is approximately 31,969 metric tons, which is an aggregate figure estimated with reference to past sales, future market supply and demand conditions and industry environment.

  • (3) Important Production and Marketing Policies

  • II. Integrate the Group's resources, expand the sales synergy, adopt division of labor and global management, and pursue the Group's maximum interests.

VII. To increase the global market share of Tex Year's private label products. VIII. Expand the range and scope of our green and sustainable products through selfdevelopment and technical cooperation.

(III) Future Company Development Strategy

Pursuit of balanced development, never-ending” is our management philosophy. We are committed to pursuing balanced development for our shareholders and employees, as well as long-term and shortterm interests.

(IV) Impact of the external competitive environment, regulatory environment and overall business environment

(1) The war between Russia and Ukraine has caused tension around the world, and has led to a sharp rise in the price of crude oil and related natural resources, further pushing up global inflation; therefore, companies must have the ability to pass through costs.

(2) In addition, as regulations on environmental protection become more strict worldwide, products and technologies for circular economy become the key for industry transformation in the future.

(3) The rising trade conflict between the U.S. and China has weakened China's export advantage, and the global industry will rethink its positioning.

  • 26 -

(4)

As China continues to promote environmental protection policies, the petrochemical industry has been forced to shut down, relocate or cut down the production capacity. This has been accelerating the elimination of the weak in the industry and leaving the strong behind, resulting in reduced supply and higher prices.

(5) The Covid-19 epidemic that swept through the world caused great damage because of the isolation policies of countries and regions, resulting in a weakening of globalization and making those with regional supply capabilities more competitive.

(6)

In response to the international anti-money laundering and anti-tax avoidance trend, multinational corporations need to rethink their investment structure to reduce global tax risks.

Consolidated Financial Statements and Independent Auditor’s Report

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To Tex Year Industries Inc.:

Audit Opinion

We have duly audited the consolidated balance sheet of Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the consolidated comprehensive income statement, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flow statement from January 1 to December 31, 2021 and 2020 as well as notes to the consolidated financial statements (including the summary of significant accounting policies).

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors (see Other Matters), the consolidated financial statements referred to above have been prepared, in all material respects, in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, and Interpretations and Interpretation Announcements issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and are fairly stated in terms of the consolidated financial position of Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flows for the years 2021 and 2020 from January 1 to December 31.

We conducted the audit in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountant and the Generally Accepted Auditing Standards. Our responsibility under these standards will be further explained in the paragraph of our responsibility to review the consolidated financial statements. The staff of the firm to which we are affiliated, who are subject to the independence regulation, have maintained superior independence from Tex Year and its subsidiaries in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Accountants, and have fulfilled other responsibilities under the Code. We believe that we have obtained sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to form the basis of our audit opinion.

  • 29 -

Key Audit Matters

A key audit matter is one that, in our professional judgment, is material to the examination of the consolidated financial statements of Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries for 2021. These matters have been considered in the process of examining the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole and forming an opinion thereon, and we do not express an opinion on these matters individually.

The key audit matters of the financial statements of Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries for 2021 are summarized as follows:

Authenticity of sales revenue

The sales revenue of Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries from selling products to some of the top ten customers in 2021 increased compared with that in the same period of last year. Whether the sales revenue is correctly recognized when meeting the performance obligations will have a significant impact on the consolidated financial report, and therefore it is listed as a key audit matter of this year.

For the accounting policies and relevant disclosure information related to sales revenue, please refer to notes 4 (13), 25, 32 and 37 to the consolidated financial report.

Our audit procedures for assessing the authenticity of sales revenue in the course of the audit are as follows:

  1. Understand and test the effectiveness of the design and implementation of the internal control system related to the authenticity of sales revenue.

  2. Obtain on a sample basis the transaction documents of the aforementioned sales revenue, including sales orders, shipping documents and collection documents, to verify the authenticity of the sales revenue posted.

Other Matters

The consolidated financial statements of Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries, certain subsidiaries and investment companies using the equity method have not been audited by us, but by other auditors. Accordingly, our opinion on the consolidated financial statements referred to above, which relates to the amounts included in the financial statements of certain subsidiaries and equitymethod investees and the related information disclosed in the notes, is based on the reports of other auditors. The total assets of these subsidiaries as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 were NT$1,000,046 thousand and NT$995,959 thousand, respectively, accounting for 30% and 33% of the total combined assets; net operating income from January 1 to December 31, 2021 and 2020 was NT$759,275 thousand and NT$693,662 thousand respectively, representing 21% and 22% of the consolidated net operating income respectively. For these investments by the equity method, the balances of December 31, 2021 and 2020 were NTS61,364 thousand and NT$102,214 thousand respectively, representing 2% and 3% of the total assets respectively. From January 1 to December 31, 2021 and 2020, the share

  • 30 -

of joint venture profit and loss recognized by the equity method was NT$(2,905) thousand and NT$2,809 thousand respectively, accounting for (5%) and 2% of the consolidated net profit before tax respectively. Tex Year Industries Inc. has prepared its individual financial reports for 2021 and 2020, and we have issued the audit report with unqualified opinions and notes on other matters for reference.

Responsibility of Management and Governance Unit to Consolidated Financial Statements

The responsibility of management is to prepare consolidated financial statements that present fairly the financial position of the Company in accordance with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, Interpretations and Interpretations issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and to maintain such internal control relevant to the preparation of consolidated financial statements as 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’s responsibility also includes assessing Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries’ ability to continue as a going concern, the disclosure of related matters, and the adoption of the going concern basis of accounting, unless management intends to liquidate Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries or to cease operations, or there is no practical alternative to liquidation or cessation of operations.

The governance units (including supervisors) of Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process.

Responsibility of Accountants Auditing Consolidated Financial Statements

The purpose of our audit is to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a report thereon. However, an audit performed in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards does not provide assurance that material misstatements in the consolidated financial statements will be detected. Misrepresentation may be the result of fraud or error. Individual amounts or aggregates that are not true are considered material if they could reasonably be expected to affect the economic decisions made by users of the consolidated financial statements.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, exercising our professional judgment and maintaining our professional skepticism. We also perform the following tasks.

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements arising from fraud or error; design and implement appropriate responses to the risks assessed; and obtain sufficient and appropriate evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion. Because fraud may involve conspiracy, forgery, intentional omission,

  2. 31 -

misrepresentation or a breach of internal control, the risk of not detecting material misstatement due to fraud is higher than that due to error.

  1. We obtained an understanding of the internal control relevant to our 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 Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries’ internal control.

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

  3. Based on the evidence obtained, we have made a conclusion on the appropriateness of management’s adoption of the going concern basis of accounting and whether there is any material uncertainty about the events or circumstances that may cast significant doubt on the ability of Tex Year Enterprises, Inc. and its subsidiaries to continue as a going concern. If we believe that there is a material uncertainty about such events or conditions, we should draw the attention of users of the consolidated financial statements to the relevant disclosures in the audit report or revise our audit opinion if such disclosures are inappropriate. Our conclusion is based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of the audit report. However, future events or circumstances may cause Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries to cease to have the ability to continue as a going concern.

  4. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the related notes, and whether the consolidated financial statements present fairly the related transactions and events.

  5. We obtained sufficient and appropriate audit evidence on the financial information of the constituent entities of the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and execution of the Group’s audits, and for forming an opinion on the Group’s audits.

We will communicate with the governance unit regarding the scope and timing of the planned audit and significant audit findings, including significant deficiencies in internal control identified during the audit.

We also provide the governing body with a statement that the independence-regulated personnel of the firm to which we are affiliated have complied with the Code of Ethics for Accountants with respect to independence, and communicate with the governing body about all relationships and other matters (including related safeguards) that may be considered to affect the accountant’s independence.

From the matters communicated with the governance unit, we decided on the key audit items for the audit of the annual consolidated financial statements of Tex Year Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries for 2021. We identified those matters in our auditor’s report, except for those matters that are not permitted by law to be disclosed publicly or, in the rarest of circumstances, where we decided not to communicate those matters in our auditor’s report because the negative effect of

  • 32 -

such communication could reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest that would be served.

The engagement partners on the reviews resulting in this independent auditor’s review report are Pi-Yu Chuang and Ming-Yen Chien.

Individual Financial Statements and Independent Auditor’s Report

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

Tex Year Industries Inc.:

Audit Opinion

We have duly audited the individual balance sheet of Tex Year Industries Inc. as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the individual comprehensive income statement, individual statement of changes in equity and individual cash flow statement from January 1 to December 31, 2021 and 2020 as well as notes to the individual financial statements (including the summary of significant accounting policies).

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors (see Other Matters), the individual financial statements referred to above have been prepared, in all material respects, in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and are fairly stated in terms of the individual financial position of Tex Year Industries Inc. as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the individual financial performance and individual cash flows for the years 2021 and 2020 from January 1 to December 31.

Basis of Audit Opinion

We conducted the audit in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountant and the Generally Accepted Auditing Standards. Our responsibility under these standards will be further explained in the paragraph of our responsibility to review the individual financial statements. The staff of the firm to which we are affiliated, who are subject to the independence regulation, have maintained superior independence from Tex Year in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Accountants, and have fulfilled other responsibilities under the Code. We believe that we have obtained sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to form the basis of our audit opinion.

Key Audit Matters

A key audit matter is one that, in our professional judgment, is material to the examination of the individual financial statements of Tex Year Industries Inc. for 2021. These matters have been considered in the process of examining the individual financial statements taken as a whole and forming an opinion thereon, and we do not express an opinion on these matters individually.

The key audit matters of the financial statements of Tex Year Industries Inc. for 2021 are summarized as follows:

Authenticity of sales revenue

  • 43 -

The sales revenue of Tex Year Industries Inc. from selling products to some of the top ten customers in 2021 increased compared with that in the same period of last year. Whether the sales revenue is correctly recognized when meeting the performance obligations will have a significant impact on the individual financial report, and therefore it is listed as a key audit matter of this year.

For the accounting policies and relevant disclosure information related to sales revenue, please refer to notes 4 (13), 24 and 31 to the individual financial report.

Our audit procedures for assessing the authenticity of sales revenue in the course of the audit are as follows:

  1. Understand and test the effectiveness of the design and implementation of the internal control system related to the authenticity of sales revenue.

  2. Obtain on a sample basis the transaction documents of the aforementioned sales revenue, including sales orders, shipping documents and collection documents, to verify the authenticity of the sales revenue posted.

Other Matters

The individual financial statements of Tex Year Industries, Inc. certain subsidiaries and investment companies using the equity method have not been audited by us, but by other auditors. Accordingly, our opinion on the financial statements referred to above is based on our review of the amounts and disclosures in the notes to the financial statements of certain investees in respect of investments accounted for using the equity method. For these investments by the equity method, the balances of December 31, 2021 and 2020 were NTS873,386 thousand and NT$870,221 thousand respectively, representing 33% and 36% of the total assets respectively. From January 1 to December 31, 2021 and 2020, the share of joint venture profit and loss recognized by the equity method was NT$32,862 thousand and NT$70,116 thousand respectively, accounting for 94% and 91% of the net profit before tax respectively.

Responsibility of Management and Governance Unit to Individual Financial Statements

Management’s responsibility is to prepare fairly presented financial statements in accordance with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and to maintain such internal control relevant to the preparation of financial statements as is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the individual financial statements, management’s responsibility also includes assessing Tex Year Industries Inc.’s ability to continue as a going concern, the disclosure of related matters, and the adoption of the going concern basis of accounting, unless management intends to liquidate Tex Year Industries Inc. or cease operations, or there is no practical alternative to liquidation or cessation of operations.

The governance units (including supervisors) of Tex Year are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process.

Responsibility of Accountants Auditing Individual Financial Statements

The purpose of our audit is to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the individual financial statements taken as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a report thereon. However, an audit performed in accordance with generally

  • 44 -

accepted auditing standards does not provide assurance that material misstatements in the individual financial statements will be detected. Misrepresentation may be the result of fraud or error. Individual amounts or aggregates that are not true are considered material if they could reasonably be expected to affect the economic decisions made by users of the individual financial statements.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, exercising our professional judgment and maintaining our professional skepticism. We also perform the following tasks.

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the individual financial statements arising from fraud or error; design and implement appropriate responses to the risks assessed; and obtain sufficient and appropriate evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion. Because fraud may involve conspiracy, forgery, intentional omission, misrepresentation or a breach of internal control, the risk of not detecting material misstatement due to fraud is higher than that due to error.

  2. We obtained an understanding of the internal control relevant to our 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 Tex Year Enterprises, Inc.' internal control.

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

  4. Based on the evidence obtained, we have made a conclusion on the appropriateness of management's adoption of the going concern basis of accounting and whether there is any material uncertainty about the events or circumstances that may cast significant doubt on the ability of Tex Year Industries Inc. to continue as a going concern. If we believe that there is a material uncertainty about such events or conditions, we should draw the attention of users of the individual financial statements to the relevant disclosures in the audit report or revise our audit opinion if such disclosures are inappropriate. Our conclusion is based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of the audit report. However, future events or circumstances may cause Tex Year Industries, to cease to have the ability to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the related notes, and whether the individual financial statements present fairly the related transactions and events.

  6. We obtained sufficient and appropriate audit evidence on the financial information of the constituent entities of the Group to express an opinion on the individual financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and execution of the Company’s audits, and for forming an opinion on the Company's audits.

We will communicate with the governance unit regarding the scope and timing of the planned audit and significant audit findings, including significant deficiencies in internal control identified during the audit.

We also provide the governing body with a statement that the independence-regulated personnel of the firm to which we are affiliated have complied with the Code of Ethics for Accountants with respect to independence, and communicate with the governing body about all relationships and other matters (including related safeguards) that may be considered to affect the accountant's independence.

From the matters communicated with the governance unit, we decided on the key audit items for the audit of the annual consolidated financial statements of Tex Year Industries Inc. for 2021.

  • 45 -

We identified those matters in our auditor's report, except for those matters that are not permitted by law to be disclosed publicly or, in the rarest of circumstances, where we decided not to communicate those matters in our auditor's report because the negative effect of such communication could reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest that would be served.

The engagement partners on the reviews resulting in this independent auditor’s review report are Pi-Yu Chuang and Ming-Yen Chien.

Article12:
(Calculation of voting shares and recusal
system)
Voting at a shareholders meeting shall be
calculated based the number of shares.
With respect to resolutions of shareholders
meetings, the number of shares held by a
shareholder with no voting rights shall not
be calculated as part of the total number of
issued shares.
When a shareholder is an interested party in
relation to an agenda item, and there is the
likelihood that such a relationship would
prejudice the interests of the Company, that
shareholder may not vote on that item, and
may not exercise voting rights as proxy for
any other shareholder.
The number of shares for which voting rights
may not be exercised under the preceding
paragraph shall not be calculated as part of
the voting rights represented by attending
shareholders.
With the exception of a trust enterprise or a
shareholder services agent approved by the
competent securities authority, when one
person is concurrently appointed as proxy by
two or more shareholders, the voting rights
represented by that proxy may not exceed
three percent of the voting rights
represented by the total number of issued
shares. If that percentage is exceeded, the
voting rights in excess of that percentage
shall not be included in the calculation.
Article10:
Except for special resolutions as otherwise
provided in the Company Act, the passage of
a proposal shall require an affirmative vote
of a majority of the voting rights represented
by the attending shareholders. A resolution
shall be deemed adopted if no opposition is
raised when the person presiding over the
meeting makes an oral inquiry to the
shareholders concerning the acceptance of
the same, and such resolution shall have the
same effect as a voting by ballot.
