2019 Business Report
2019 was a challenging year for most businesses. Global economic growth slowed due to the disruptions from trade disputes and geopolitical conflicts, as well as the uncertainties in outlook and negative impact to business/consumer confidence. TSRC’s business was not immune to these negative factors and experienced a decline in overall financial performance compared to prior year. Amidst the economic and market headwinds, TSRC’s synthetic rubber business managed to leverage on the opportunities with increased price gap between natural rubber (NR) and BD to grow volume and also increase sales to higher margin non-tire applications. TPE business had a difficult time against pricing pressure and economic headwinds, resulting in declined performance versus 2018.
In total, the shipment of synthetic rubber and TPE products was 488 thousand metric tons in 2019, an increase of 8% versus prior year. Consolidated revenue was NTD 28,911 million, a decrease of 3% compared to NTD 29,751 million in the prior year. Consolidated gross profit was down 3% to NTD 3,377 million and margin was 12%. Consolidated operating profit was NTD 1,085 million, a reduction of 17% compared to the prior year. As a result, net income was NTD 740 million while EPS was NTD 0.90, representing a 38% decline from 2018.
In building our capabilities to become a global specialty chemical company, we successfully completed the construction of the new twenty-thousand-metric-tons-per-year advanced SEBS line in Nantong, China and the new seven-thousand-metric-tons-per-year advanced shoe materials (ASM) plant in Vietnam in 2019 with planned commercial production in 2020. In addition, TSRC Global Application Research Center was inaugurated in Shanghai with the objective of utilizing TSRC’s highquality polymers and technology to accelerate collaboration with customers in elastomer/ polymer compounds and their downstream applications, such as medical and specialty films. These new assets, along with innovative technologies and new market development, strength TSRC’s position in specialty chemicals and applications.
1. 2019 Business Report, Financial Statement and Audit Committee's Audit Report
In terms of technology innovation, key research milestones include successful adoption of functional modification in next generation synthetic rubber products, development of new generation HSBC technologies in novel applications such as medical, specialty film, foaming and automotive component, and the implementation of new process technologies in upgrading existing and new manufacturing assets. In 2019, TSRC was granted 11 patents.
10
For the year of 2020, global economic growth continues to be weakened, especially with the COVID-19 outbreak. The outbreak directly impacted China’s economy and also caused a broad-based impact globally due to China’s position in the global supply chain and international trade. TSRC’s operation will inevitably be affected in the first-half of 2020, but we expect to recover in the second-half of 2020 assuming that the epidemic stabilizes. TSRC’s priority, during this difficult period, is to ensure the safety of our employees and to support our key customers to stabilize and sustain their businesses. We will also continue our long-term development projects for new products and technology solutions. TSRC will endeavor to achieve the previously set target of 4% increase in sales volume in 2020 and remain vigilant to respond to volatile market changes and long-term growth opportunities.
Despite the increasingly challenging external environment, TSRC is dedicated to strengthening our business portfolio and growth in high value market segments and applications. TSRC will focus to achieve short term and lasting benefits through enhanced technology and capabilities, and continue the momentum towards our vision of being a global specialty chemical company.

Independent Auditors' Report
To the Board of Directors of TSRC Corporation:
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of TSRC Corporation ("the Group"), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, 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, 2019 and 2018, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs"), International Accounting Standards ("IASs"), interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
1. 2019 Business Report, Financial Statement and Audit Committee's Audit Report
We conducted our audit of the Consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, Rule No. 1090360805 issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Furthermore, we conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, and the auditing standards generally accepted in 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 Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (“the Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
As stated in Note 3(a), the Group initially adopt the IFRS 16, “Leases” at January 1, 2019 and apply the modified retrospective approach, with no restatement of comparative period amounts. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.
12
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 end December 31, 2019. 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.
1. Revenue recognition
Please refer to note 4(q) and note 6(v) for disclosures related to revenue recognition. Description of key audit matter:
Revenue is the key indicator used by investors and management while evaluating the Group’s finance or operating performance. The accuracy of the timing and amount of revenue recognized have significant impact on the financial statements, for which the assumptions and judgments of revenue measurement and recognition rely on subjective judgments of the management. Therefore, we consider it as the key audit matter.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
Testing the effectiveness of design and implementing the internal control (both manual and system control) of sales and collecting cycle; reviewing the revenue recognition of significant sales contracts to determine whether the accounting treatment, key judgment, estimation, and accounting treatment are reasonable; analyzing the changes in top 10 customers from the most recent period and last year, and the changes in the price and quantity of each category of product line to determine whether if there are any significant misstatements; selecting sales transactions from a period of time before and after the balance sheet date, and verifying with the vouchers to determine the accuracy of the timing and amounts of revenue recognized; understanding whether if there is a significant subsequent sales return or discount; and reviewing whether the disclosure of revenue made by the management is appropriate.
2. Inventory measurement
1. 2019 Business Report, Financial Statement and Audit Committee's Audit Report
Please refer to note 4(h), note 5, and note 6(f) for disclosures related to inventory measurement. Description of key audit matter:
The inventory of the Group includes various types of synthetic rubber and its raw material. Since there is an oversupply and a low market demand in the rubber manufacturing industry, which may result in a decline on the price of raw material, the carrying value of inventories may exceed its net realizable value. The measurement of inventory depends on the evaluation of the management based on evidence from internal and external, both subjective and objective. Therefore, we consider it as the key audit matter.
13
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
The key audit procedures performed is to understand management’s accounting policy of inventory measurement and determine whether if it is reasonable and is being implement. The procedures includes reviewing the inventory aging documents and analyzing its changes; obtaining the documents of inventory measurement and evaluating whether if the bases used for net realizable value is reasonable; selecting samples and verifying them with the vouchers to test the accuracy of the amount; and reviewing whether the disclosure of inventory measurement made by the management is appropriate.
Other Matter
TSRC Corporation has additionally prepared its parent company only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, on which we have issued an unqualified opinion.
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 Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs, IASs, interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed 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 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 are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
1. 2019 Business Report, Financial Statement and Audit Committee's Audit Report
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 auditor’s 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 auditing standards generally accepted in 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.
14
As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
IIdentify 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.
-
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 auditor’s 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 auditor’s 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 and 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.
1. 2019 Business Report, Financial Statement and Audit Committee's Audit Report
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.
15
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 auditor’s 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 audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report are Po-Shu Huang and Ming-Hung Huang.

Parent Company Only financial statements and independent auditors' report for the most recent fiscal year
Independent Auditors' Report
To the Board of Directors of TSRC Corporation:
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of TSRC Corporation, which comprise the statements of financial position as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the TSRC Corporation as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs"), International Accounting Standards ("IASs"), interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
1. 2019 Business Report, Financial Statement and Audit Committee's Audit Report
We conducted our audit of the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, Rule No. 1090360805 issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Furthermore, we conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, and the auditing standards generally accepted in 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 Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in Republic of China (“the Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of 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 financial statements for the year end December 31, 2019. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
- Revenue recognition
Please refer to note 4(q) and 6(u) for disclosures related to revenue recognition.
24
Description of key audit matter:
Revenue is the key indicator used by investors and management while evaluating the TSRC Corporation’s finance or operating performance. The accuracy of the timing and amount of revenue recognized have significant impact on the financial statements, for which the assumptions and judgments of revenue measurement and recognition rely on subjective judgments of the management. Therefore, we consider it as the key audit matter.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
Testing the effectiveness of design and implementing the internal control (both manual and system control) of sales and collecting cycle; reviewing the revenue recognition of significant sales contracts to determine whether the accounting treatment key judgment, estimation, and accounting treatment are reasonable; analyzing the changes in top 10 customers from the most recent period and last year, and the changes in the price and quantity of each category of product line to determine whether if there are any significant misstatements; selecting sales transactions from a period of time before and after the balance sheet date, and verifying with the vouchers to determine the accuracy of the timing and amounts of revenue recognized; understanding whether if there is a significant subsequent sales return or discount; and reviewing whether the disclosure of revenue made by the management is appropriate.
2. Inventory measurement
Please refer to note 4(g), note 5, and note 6(f) for disclosures related to inventory measurement. Description of key audit matter:
The inventory of TSRC Corporation includes various types of synthetic rubber and its raw material. Since there is an oversupply and a low market demand in the rubber manufacturing industry, which may result in a decline on the price of raw material, the carrying value of inventories may exceed its net realizable value. The measurement of inventory depends on the evaluation of the management based on evidence from internal and external, both subjective and objective. Therefore, we consider it as the key audit matter.
How the matter was addressed in our audit:
1. 2019 Business Report, Financial Statement and Audit Committee's Audit Report
The key audit procedures performed is to understand management’s accounting policy of inventory measurement and determine whether if it is reasonable and is being implement. The procedures includes reviewing the inventory aging documents and analyzing its changes; obtaining the documents of inventory measurement and evaluating whether if the bases used for net realizable value is reasonable; selecting samples and verifying them with the vouchers to test the accuracy of the amount; and reviewing whether the disclosure of inventory measurement made by the management is appropriate.
25
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with 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 financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the TSRC Corporation’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 TSRC Corporation or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the TSRC Corporation’s financial reporting process.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s 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 auditing standards generally accepted in 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 financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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.
1. 2019 Business Report, Financial Statement and Audit Committee's Audit Report
-
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 TSRC Corporation’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
26
-
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 TSRC Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the 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 auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the TSRC Corporation to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on this 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.
1. 2019 Business Report, Financial Statement and Audit Committee's Audit Report
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 auditor’s 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 audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report are Po-Shu Huang and Ming-Hung Huang.
