TRANSCEND INFORMATION, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 AND 2018
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan Dollars,
except as otherwise indicated)
(UNAUDITED)
1. HISTORY AND ORGANIZATION
Transcend Information, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the provisions of the Company Law of the Republic of China (R.O.C.) in August 1989. The main activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred herein as the "Group") are manufacturing, processing and sales of computer software and hardware, peripheral equipment and other computer components. The Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of China had approved the Company's shares to be listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange and the shares started trading on May 3, 2001.
- THE DATE OF AUTHORIZATION FOR ISSUANCE OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND PROCEDURES FOR AUTHORIZATION
These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on November 7, 2019.
-
- APPLICATION OF NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS
- (1) Effect of the adoption of new issuances of or amendments to International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission ("FSC")
New standards, interpretations and amendments endorsed by the FSC effective from 2019 are as follows:
| Effective date by | |
|---|---|
| International Accounting | |
| New Standards, Interpretations and Amendments | Standards Board |
| Amendments to IFRS 9, 'Prepayment features with negative | January 1, 2019 |
| compensation' | |
| IFRS 16, 'Leases' | January 1, 2019 |
| Amendments to IAS 19, 'Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement' | January 1, 2019 |
| Amendments to IAS 28, 'Long-term interests in associates and joint ventures' |
January 1, 2019 |
| IFRIC 23, 'Uncertainty over income tax treatments' | January 1, 2019 |
| Annual improvements to IFRSs 2015-2017 cycle | January 1, 2019 |
Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group's financial condition and financial performance based on the Group's assessment.
IFRS 16, 'Leases'
- A. IFRS 16, 'Leases', replaces IAS 17, 'Leases' and related interpretations and SICs. The standard requires lessees to recognize a 'right-of-use asset' and a lease liability (except for those leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets). The accounting stays the same for lessors, which is to classify their leases as either finance leases or operating leases and account for those two types of leases differently. IFRS 16 only requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors.
- B. The Group has elected to apply IFRS 16 by not restating the comparative information (referred herein as the 'modified retrospective approach') when applying "IFRSs" effective in 2019 as endorsed by the FSC. Accordingly, the Group increased 'right-of-use asset' and 'lease liability' by \$173,938 and \$71,728, respectively, and decreased prepaid rents shown as other current assets and long-term prepaid rents shown as other non-current assets by \$8,908 and 93,302, respectively, with respect to the lease contracts of lessees on January 1, 2019.
- C. The Group has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard at the date of initial application of IFRS 16:
- (a) Reassessment as to whether a contract is, or contains, a lease is not required, instead, the application of IFRS 16 depends on whether or not the contracts were previously identified as leases applying IAS 17 and IFRIC 4.
- (b) The use of a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics.
- (c) The accounting for operating leases whose period will end before December 31, 2019 as shortterm leases and accordingly, information relating to rent expense recognized in the third quarter of 2019 is provided in Note 6(9).
- (d) The exclusion of initial direct costs for the measurement of 'right-of-use asset'.
- (e) The use of hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.
- D. The Group calculated the present value of lease liabilities by using weighted average incremental borrowing interest rate ranging from 0.75% to 2.5%.
- E. The Group recognized lease liabilities which had previously been classified as 'operating leases' under the principles of IAS 17, 'Leases'. These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application. The amount of aforementioned present values is the same as the amount of lease liabilities recognized on January 1, 2019.
- (2) Effect of new issuances of or amendments to IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC but not yet adopted by the Group
New standards, interpretations and amendments endorsed by the FSC effective from 2020 are as follows:
| Effective date by | |
|---|---|
| International Accounting | |
| New Standards, Interpretations and Amendments | Standards Board |
| Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8, 'Disclosure Initiative-Definition of Material' | January 1, 2020 |
| Amendments to IFRS 3, 'Definition of a business' | January 1, 2020 |
| The above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group's financial condition | |
| and financial performance based on the Group's assessment. |
(3) IFRSs issued by IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC
New standards, interpretations and amendments issued by IASB but not yet included in the IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC are as follows:
| Effective date by | |
|---|---|
| International Accounting | |
| New Standards, Interpretations and Amendments | Standards Board |
| Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7, 'Interest rate benchmark reform' | January 1, 2020 |
| Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28, 'Sale or contribution of | To be determined by |
| assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture' | International Accounting |
| Standards Board | |
| IFRS 17, 'Insurance contracts' | January 1, 2021 |
The above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group's financial condition and financial performance based on the Group's assessment.

(4) Leasing arrangements (lessee) - right-of-use assets/ lease liabilities
Effective 2019
- A. Leases are recognized as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Group. For short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
- B. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the remaining lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the incremental borrowing interest rate. Lease payments are comprised of the following:
- (a) Fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable;
- (b) Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate;
The Group subsequently measures the lease liability at amortized cost using the interest method and recognizes interest expense over the lease term. The lease liability is remeasured and the amount of remeasurement is recognized as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset when there are changes in the lease term or lease payments and such changes do not arise from contract modifications.
C. At the commencement date, the right-of-use asset is stated at cost comprising the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability.
The right-of-use asset is measured subsequently using the cost model and is depreciated from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the asset's useful life or the end of the lease term. When the lease liability is remeasured, the amount of remeasurement is recognized as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset.
(5) Operating leases
Prior to 2019
Rent income (expense) made under an operating lease are recognized in profit or loss on a straightline basis over the lease term.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY

(a) Market risk
Foreign exchange risk
i. The Group operates internationally and is exposed to exchange rate risk arising from the transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries used in various functional currency, primarily with respect to the USD. Exchange rate risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities.
ii. The Group's businesses involve some non-functional currency operations (the Company's functional currency: NTD; the subsidiaries' functional currencies: JPY, KRW, USD, EUR, GBP and RMB, etc.). The information on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies whose values would be materially affected by the exchange rate fluctuations is as follows:

The information on total exchange (loss) gain, including realized and unrealized arising from significant foreign exchange variation on the monetary items held by the Group for the three months and nine moths ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 is provided in Note 6(20).
Sensitivity analysis relating to foreign exchange rate risks is primarily for financial reporting period-end date of foreign currency monetary item. If the New Taiwan Dollar exchange rate to the U.S. Dollar increases or decreases by 1%, the Group's net income will decrease or increase by \$48,163 and \$79,699 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
- i. The Group's principal interest-bearing assets are cash and cash equivalents and financial assets at amortised cost. Cash and cash equivalents are due within twelve months. Financial assets at amortised cost are maintained at fixed rates. Therefore, it is assessed that there is no significant cash flow interest rate risk.
- ii. The Group has not used any financial instruments to hedge its interest rate risk.
- (b) Credit risk
- i. Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. The main factor is that counterparties could not repay in full the accounts receivable based on the agreed terms, and the contract cash flows of debt instruments stated at amortised cost.
- ii. The Group manages their credit risk taking into consideration the entire group's concern. According to the Group's credit policy, each local entity in the Group is responsible for managing and analyzing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored.
- iii. The Group adopts the assumption under IFRS 9, that is, the default occurs when the contract payments are past due over 90 days.
- iv. The Group adopts the following assumptions under IFRS 9 to assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition:
- (i) If the contract payments were past due over 30 days based on the terms, there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition.
- (ii) For investments in bonds that are traded over the counter, if any external credit rating agency rates these bonds as investment grade, the credit risk of these financial assets is low.
-
v. If the credit rating grade of an investment target degrades two scales, there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition.
-
vi. The following indicators are used to determine whether the credit impairment of debt instruments has occurred:
- (i) It becomes probable that the issuer will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization due to their financial difficulties;
- (ii) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;
- (iii)Default or delinquency in interest or principal repayments;
- (iv)Adverse changes in national or regional economic conditions that are expected to cause a default.
- vii. For details of credit risk in relation to accounts receivable and notes receivable, please refer to Note 6(4).
- viii.For details of credit risk in relation to debt instrument investments measured at amortised cost, please refer to Note 6(3).
(3) Fair value information
- A. The different levels that the inputs to valuation techniques are used to measure fair value of financial and non-financial instruments have been defined as follows:
- Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. A market is regarded as active where a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of the Group's investment in listed stocks and beneficiary certificates is included in Level 1.
- Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The fair value of the Group's investment in non-hedging derivatives is included in Level 2.
- Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value of the Group's investment in equity investment without active market, financial products and investment property is included in Level 3.
- B. Fair value information of investment property at cost is provided in Note 6(11).
- C. Financial instruments not measured at fair value
Except for those listed in the table below, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, financial assets at amortised cost, notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and other payables are approximate to their fair values.

- E. The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the closing price. These instruments are included in Level 1. Instruments included in Level 1 comprise primarily listed stocks classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income and beneficiary certificates classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
- F. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, there was no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2.
- G.The valuation of derivative financial instruments is based on valuation model widely accepted by market participants. Forward exchange contracts are usually valued based on the current forward exchange rate.
- H. If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
- I. The financial products purchased for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were categorised to Level 3. There were no changes in the financial instruments under Level 3 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
- J. Finance segment is in charge of valuation procedures for fair value measurements being categorised within Level 3, which is to verify independent fair value of financial instruments. Such assessment is to ensure the valuation results are reasonable by applying independent information to make results close to current market conditions and frequently review the fair value.
- K. The qualitative information of significant unobservable inputs to valuation model used in Level 3 fair value measurement is as follows: financial products are income investments, and the judgements of their valuation technique and significant unobservable inputs are based on the cash flow of individual contract.
