Exhibit 1

TPK Holding Co., Ltd.

Business Report

The global political and economic environment remained turbulent throughout 2025, with geopolitical tensions and shifting trade policies disrupting international trade and supply chain strategies. Regional security concerns in Europe, persistent energy challenges, and elevated price levels across major economies collectively tempered the pace of demand recovery. Against this backdrop, the Company maintained operational resilience through disciplined cost management and lean operations. Nevertheless, while full-year revenues declined modestly year-on-year, improved operational efficiency and a stronger cost structure enabled growth in both net earnings and operating margin, reflecting continued strengthening of the Company's financial health.

Looking forward to 2026, the global geopolitical and policy environment remains highly uncertain, with fluctuations in price levels and capital costs continuing to influence end-market demand and supply chain strategies. At the same time, sustained investment in artificial intelligence ("AI") infrastructure, alongside the expanding adoption of AI applications across end devices and specialized sectors, is creating new growth opportunities across industries. Against this backdrop, the Company's core touch business will continue to enhance product performance and process efficiency, while new overseas manufacturing facilities will strengthen supply chain resilience and solidify the Company's position as a key supplier. Emerging businesses including 3D printing (additive manufacturing) and LiDAR are expected to scale meaningfully, and together with the display driver IC and related semiconductor business from strategic investments, will contribute diversified growth momentum going forward.

Review of 2025 Company Strategy

In 2025, amid global economic uncertainty, the Company continued to refine its supply chain footprint and deepen customer partnerships, maintaining steady operational progress. Meanwhile, the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence ("AI") technology and ongoing supply chain realignment trends have opened new industry opportunities. In pursuit of enhanced competitiveness and the achievement of annual operational targets, the Company actively executed a series of initiatives in line with its established strategy, the key highlights of which are outlined below.


8

  1. Strengthening Core Business and Driving Operational Excellence

In its core touch business, the Company enhanced product performance and manufacturing efficiency through material innovation, process optimization, and the integration of automation and intelligent manufacturing, while deepening collaboration with key global customers across new product development and mass production ramp-ups to expand product content and grow market share. The Company also achieved significant shipment growth in mid-size OLED display and e-reader, optimizing its product mix and improving overall value-add. On the ESG front, the Company completed the review of its digital energy and carbon management center and strengthened corporate governance and sustainable operations in accordance with ISO 27001 certification.

  1. Venturing into New Business and Expanding with Precision

While reinforcing its core touch business, the Company formally entered the high-growth semiconductor industry through strategic investment in ITH Corporation, with plans to build upon ITH's established operations to further expand its semiconductor footprint. Leveraging its strengths in product engineering, mass production manufacturing, and supply chain management, the Company also advanced its emerging business portfolio. In terms of 3D printing (additive manufacturing), it deepened collaboration with international sports brand customers, extending from single-component printing to full-product innovation and design services; In terms of LiDAR, the Company expanded from manufacturing services into engineering services and product design, broadening its application scope from automotive driver assistance to delivery robotics and establishing a growing base of technology partnerships across new industries. Additionally, in response to customer supply chain resilience requirements, the Company is establishing production facilities in Vietnam and Thailand, which have gradually commenced operations. These facilities provide regional manufacturing capabilities to support customers' overseas production deployment.

  1. Enhancing Asset Efficiency and Maintaining Financial Prudence

In terms of operations, the Company drove lean operations and cost management initiatives to improve organizational efficiency and resource allocation. Capital investments and production line optimizations were subject to rigorous return-on-investment evaluation, while efforts to improve equipment utilization, repurpose aging assets, and optimize space usage contributed to meaningful gains in overall asset efficiency. With respect to financial management, given persistent geopolitical risks and broader global market uncertainties, the Company maintained a


disciplined financial structure with prudent management of both short- and long-term funding positions.

Financial Results

The Company's consolidated revenues for 2025 were approximately NT$62.8 billion, a decrease of 8.8% compared to 2024. Net profit attributable to the parent company reached approximately NT$1.1 billion, representing a year-on-year increase of 133%, with diluted earnings per share of NT$2.71.

Research & Development

The Company continuously invests R&D resources to enhance product competitiveness and expand application fields through new designs, new materials, and new product development. As of the end of 2025, the Group held a cumulative total of 3,361 approved patents, comprising 2,109 invention patents and 1,252 utility model patents. Furthermore, through patent monitoring and strategic management, the Company continued to deepen its patent layout, establish technological barriers, and maintain its competitive edge in the touch sector while laying a stronger foundation for new business development.

Summary of Business Plans for 2026

Amid persistent uncertainty in the global geopolitical and economic landscape, the Company is guided by a core strategy of "Strengthening the Core, Pioneering New Frontiers, and Maximizing Asset Efficiency" — building multiple growth curves upon a solid touch business. The key strategic priorities for 2026 are summarized as follows.

  1. Building on Strengths, Striving for Excellence

Leveraging its long-accumulated technology and manufacturing foundation, TPK will continue to solidify its leadership in the touch technology sector through material innovation, process optimization, and lean manufacturing, while advancing automation and intelligent manufacturing capabilities and deepening collaboration with key global customers. Building on its existing product and business, the Company remains committed to new product development and mass production ramp-ups to enhance product value and strengthen market competitiveness. In parallel, the Company continues to advance ESG and sustainable governance initiatives by strengthening energy and carbon management, enhancing cybersecurity management systems,

9


and promoting green manufacturing and sustainable corporate development.

2. Pioneering New Frontiers, Igniting Growth

As AI applications continue to expand, the semiconductor industry is poised for sustained growth, and through the investment in ITH, TPK is well-positioned to participate in the industry growth opportunity driven by the AI revolution. Meanwhile, by integrating its years of expertise in product engineering, precision manufacturing, and supply chain management, the Company aims to establish differentiated technology, patents, and service capabilities across its new businesses by leveraging its existing manufacturing and engineering platforms to help customers commercialize and scale new products. In addition, as overseas manufacturing sites commence operations, the Company will further implement lean manufacturing management to enhance the competitiveness advantages of regionalized manufacturing.

3. Maintaining Financial Prudence and Enhancing Asset Returns

Amid ongoing uncertainty in the global economic environment, the Company will maintain a disciplined financial structure and exercise prudent capital allocation. All capital expenditures and investment plans are evaluated primarily on the basis of return on investment and long-term competitiveness, with resources prioritized toward business areas with strong growth potential and strategic value to ensure that capital deployment effectively supports operational growth and enhances overall corporate value. On the asset management front, the Company will optimize capacity allocation and upgrade equipment to improve production efficiency and asset returns.

Embrace the future

In 2026, building on its established strategic customer partnerships and precision manufacturing foundation, the Company will continue to expand its human-machine interface and engineering manufacturing capabilities, progressively establishing a multi-technology platform and diversified revenue structure. This transformation will drive the Company's evolution from a touch-related ODM manufacturer into a technology platform company with integrated engineering and manufacturing capabilities. Meanwhile, as global supply chains continue to regionalize, the Company will strengthen its overseas manufacturing and supply chain management capabilities to enhance operational resilience and the competitiveness of its manufacturing services, solidifying long-term partnerships with key customers.

Against the backdrop of a rapidly evolving industry landscape, the management team will continue to drive the Company's long-term development on the foundation of technological

innovation, manufacturing excellence, and global footprint, while upholding its longstanding operating philosophy to create sustained and stable value growth for shareholders and customers alike.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

TPK Holding Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of TPK Holding Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements").

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, 2025 and 2024, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and the 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.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

13


The key audit matter of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 is described as follows:

Valuation of Inventory

The description of the key audit matter:

As of December 31, 2025, the carrying amount of inventory accounted for 8% of the Group’s total assets. The Group is mainly engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and selling touch modules and related products, etc. As the touch module industry is characterized by rapid change in technology, as well as short life cycles for the related products, in this regard, the risk surrounding the write-down of slow-moving and obsolete inventory is higher. Based on the aging of inventories, the net realizable value of the Group’s products, the related sales status and the changes in the market, the Group evaluated and recognized losses related to the write-down of slow-moving and obsolete inventory monthly. Since such valuation of inventory requires significant judgment from management, the valuation of inventory has been identified as a key audit matter.

Refer to Notes 4 (g), 5 (c) and 11 to the Group’s consolidated financial statements for details of the related accounting policy and the relevant information about inventory.

Corresponding audit procedures:

As for the evaluation of losses related to the write-down of slow-moving and obsolete inventory, after first gaining familiarity with the industry characteristics to which the Group belongs, we obtained an understanding of the reasonability of the Group’s policy on provisions for obsolete inventory and inventory whose carrying amount was lower than the net realizable value, and we randomly inspected inventory aging and performed our own calculation to verify whether the loss recognized adhered to the Group’s provision policy.

In addition, at the end of the year, we performed an inventory observation and random counting to understand the inventory status and evaluate the appropriateness of the loss of obsolete and damaged inventory.

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 International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (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.

Auditors' 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 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 maintain 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 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.

  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.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of 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 for the year ended December 31, 2025 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 audits resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Pi-Yu Chuang and Chun-Hung Chen.

Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, forfeiture of the subscription may be declared without the demand process if the payment period for subscription price set by the Company is one month or longer.

41


Upon forfeiture of the subscription, the shares that remain unsubscribed shall be offered for subscription in such manner as is consistent with the Applicable Public Company Rules.

The Company may also reserve 10% to 15% of such new shares for subscription by the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries (the "Employee Subscription Portion"). The Company may prohibit such employees from transferring the shares so subscribed within a certain period; provided, however, that such a period cannot be more than two years.

8.4 Members' rights to subscribe for newly-issued Shares may be transferred independently from the Shares from which such rights are derived.

in previous years that have not been previously offset, then set aside a legal capital reserve at 10% of the balance, until the accumulated legal capital reserve has equalled the Paid-in Capital of the Company; then set aside a special capital reserve, if one is required, in accordance with the Applicable Public Company Rules or as requested by the authorities in charge; the rest amount (hereinafter the "Distributable Profits in a Given Year") plus any accumulated undistributed profits of previous years may be distributed as Dividends (including cash dividends or stock dividends) in accordance with the Statute and the Applicable Public Company Rules and after taking into consideration financial, business and operational factors.

71


rights of all Members and may vest any such specific assets in trustees as may seem expedient to the Directors.

In such event the Directors shall do all acts and things required to give effect to such capitalisation, with full power to the Directors to make such provisions as they think fit such that Shares shall not become distributable in fractions (including provisions whereby the benefit of fractional entitlements accrue to the Company rather than to the Members concerned).
