Diversity and independence of the Board of Directors:
(1). Board Diversity: The Company’s board of directors is considering advancing towards a policy of board diversity, with the future goal of increasing the proportion of female directors. This aims to strengthen corporate governance and promote the healthy development of the composition and structure of the board. It is believed that the diversity policy will help enhance the overall performance of the Company. The selection of board members is based on the principle of meritocracy, possessing diverse and complementary capabilities across various industries, as well as having industry experience and expertise, along with skills in business judgment, management, leadership decision-making, and crisis handling. In the future, the board of directors will timely revise and enhance the diversification policy based on the operation of the board, operational modes, and development needs, not limited to the standards of basic conditions and values, as well as professional knowledge and skills, to ensure that board members generally possess the knowledge, skills, and competencies necessary to perform their duties. Currently, the proportion of female directors is less than one-third. Given the difficulty in finding talent that meets the company's requirements, One female independent director was elected at the 2025 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, and the company is deliberating on increasing the proportion of female directors term by term.
(2) Independence of the Board of Directors: The company has a total of 9 directors, including 3 independent directors, accounting for 3/9, one of whom is a female director. Explanation of the circumstances specified in paragraphs 3 and 4 of Article 26(3) of the Securities and Futures Ordinance: The company has a total of 8 directors, including Chairman Lin Chuang-Ju, Director Lin Ho-Whei, and Director Lin Chuang-Yeh, who are all within the second degree of kinship, while the remaining directors are mostly external professionals. The situation where there are kinship relationships within two degrees of consanguinity among the directors: as detailed above. There are no instances of spousal relationships among the directors.

Four. Business Overview
- Scope of business: Production and sales of polyacrylonitrile fiber (acrylic cotton).
(1) Business scope:
Acrylic cotton is the company's main product, a synthetic fiber with excellent insulation properties. The demand for acrylic cotton is concentrated in mainland China, which accounts for approximately 50% of global demand. The company still faces many difficulties and challenges in its operations. One is the lack of a domestic market. The textile industry chain in Taiwan, from raw cotton (fibers) to yarn, fabric or clothing, is mainly for export. Most downstream yarn factories have moved to mainland China and ASEAN. Secondly, rising mainland Chinese competitors have taken over most of the domestic market in China and are gradually increasing their exports, competing with Taiwan in the international market.
In recent years, the market demand for the application and quality of acrylic cotton has been constantly increasing. In response to the market demand, the company has continuously invested in research and development and launched various special varieties, which have been well received by customers. Anti-pilling, super fine denier short fibers, silk bundles, and flat fibers have become the main sales varieties.
(2) Industry Overview:
Synthetic fibres mainly include polyester fibre, nylon fibre, polypropylene fibre, acrylic fibre and elastic fibre. The global output of synthetic fibres is about 72,200,000 tonnes, accounting for 64% of the global output of fibres. Among them, polyester fibre is the largest, and the global production of polyester weaving and maintenance is about 60,500,000 tonnes, accounting for 54% of the global fibre production; This was followed by nylon fibres 5,900,000 tonnes, accounting for 5% of the global fibre output, and polypropylene fibres 3,000,000 tonnes, accounting for 2.7% of the global fibre output, acrylic fibre 1,700,000 tonnes, accounting for 1.5%, and elastic fibres 1,200,000 tonnes, accounting for 1%.
—38—
The application of synthetic fibers globally, clothing and apparel account for 51% of the industry's development focus. Home decor fabrics (including blankets and carpets) account for 25%, industrial applications and non-woven fabrics account for 12% respectively. Acrylic cotton is mainly used in wool spinning, accounting for 44%, special fibers account for 28%, cotton spinning accounts for 17%, and semi-worsted spinning accounts for 11%. The production and supply of acrylic cotton and its demand are mainly in mainland China. In recent years, due to the impact of nylon, polyester-cotton and other fibers and fabrics, the demand for acrylic cotton in mainland China has slowed down, and the product output has been declining year by year.
(3) Overview of Technology and R&D
- Research and Development Expenditure: NTD 0 dollar.
- Achievements: None (R&D was suspended due to the decision to stop production made by the board of directors on April 1, 2021)
(4) Long and Short-term Business Development Plan:
- China is still the largest market for acrylic fiber, with demand dropping to 600,000 tons in 2024.
Our company has been cultivating the Chinese market for acrylic fiber for many years with good sales performance. However, the import volume in the Chinese market has shown negative growth, while the export volume has increased. Therefore, the short-term business development plan is to diversify the market and develop markets such as Japan, South Korea, ASEAN, the Middle East, and India. At the same time, in response to the characteristics and evolution of the acrylic fiber market, our company is committed to strengthening the supply chain, establishing strategic partnerships with raw material suppliers, ensuring stable supply and cost reduction. We also strengthen cooperation with downstream spinning mills to integrate the product chain. In management, we simplify the process of purchasing raw materials and selling cotton, strengthen sales and technical services, improve equipment stability and product quality, reduce

production costs, and enhance competitiveness
-
In early 2021, the global outbreak of COVID-19 caused comprehensive interruptions in global freight transportation and business dealings, leading to customers lowering their production rates due to the impact of the epidemic, resulting in stagnant demand for acrylic fiber market. On April 1, 2022, the board of directors approved the cessation of acrylic cotton production, which was submitted to the shareholders' meeting for approval. Our company adjusted its business strategy and planned to carry out a transformation project for asset activation.
-
Will continue to promote the transformation project for asset activation in 2022.
-
2023 Promote the Company's diversified business development.
-
2024 and 2025 continued to promote the company's diversified operations and develop new business opportunities.

The ERP system database is automatically backed up daily and reports any failures and records them.
