Taiwan Mobile Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries

Consolidated Financial Statements for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 and Independent Auditors’ Review Report

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REVIEW REPORT

The Board of Directors and Stockholders Taiwan Mobile Co., Ltd.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Taiwan Mobile Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group”) as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, the consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the three months then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. 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 Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the consolidated financial statements based on our reviews.

Scope of Review

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the Statement of Auditing Standards No. 65 “Review of Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity”. A review of consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our reviews, nothing has come to our attention that caused us to believe that the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the three months then ended in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Notice to Readers

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are intended only to present the consolidated financial position, financial performance and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in Taiwan, the Republic of China (ROC) and not those of any other jurisdictions. The standards, procedures and practices to review such financial statements are those generally accepted and applied in the ROC.

For the convenience of readers, the independent auditors’ review report and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the ROC. If there is any conflict between the English version and the original Chinese version or any difference in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-language auditors’ review report and consolidated financial statements shall prevail.

These investments in equity instruments are held for medium to long-term strategic purposes. Accordingly, the management elected to designate these investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI as they believed that recognizing short-term fluctuations from these investments’ fair value in profit or loss would not be consistent with the Group’s strategy of holding these investments for long-term purposes.

In January 2020, the Directors of TFN resolved that TFN would sell all its equity interest in Taiwan High Speed Rail Corporation (THSR) to monetize financial assets, and, therefore, the subject equity investment in THSR was subsequently reclassified from non-current to current. TFN sold all of THSR’s stock in 2020.

The main credit terms range from 30 to 90 days.

The Group serves a large consumer base for telecommunications business; therefore, the concentration of credit risk is limited. When entering into transactions with customers, the Group considers the record of arrears in the past. In addition, the Group may also collect some telecommunication charges in advance to reduce the risk of payment arrears in subsequent periods.

The Group adopted a policy of dealing with counterparties with considerable scale of operations, certain credit ratings and financial conditions for project business. In addition to examining publicly available financial information and its own historical transaction experience, the Group obtains collateral where necessary to mitigate the risk of loss arising from default. The Group continues to monitor the credit exposure and financial and credit conditions of its counterparties, and spreads the total amount of the transactions among qualified counterparties.

In order to mitigate credit risk, the management of the Group has delegated a team responsible for determining credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure the recoverability of receivables. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of trade receivables at balance sheet dates to ensure that adequate allowance is provided for possible irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the management believes the Group’s credit risk could be reasonably reduced.

The Group measures the loss allowance for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. The ECLs on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix approach considering the past default experiences of the customers and an analysis of the customers’ current financial positions, as well as forward-looking indicators such as the industrial economic conditions. As the Group’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision matrix does not distinguish customer segments. As a result, the expected credit loss rate is based on the number of past due days of trade receivables.

The Group writes off a trade receivable when there are evidences indicating that the counterparty is in severe financial difficulty and the trade receivable is considered uncollectible. For trade receivables that have been written off, the Group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in profit or loss.

14. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

The Group leases its properties to others and thus reclassifies them from property, plant and equipment to investment properties.

The fair values of investment properties were measured using Level 3 inputs, arising from income approach, comparative approach, and cost approach adopted by a third party real estate appraiser, HomeBan Appraisers Joint Firm. As of March 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the fair values of investment properties were $6,160,847 thousand, $6,160,847 thousand and $7,355,209 thousand, respectively, and the capitalization rates for the aforementioned financial reporting periods were ranging from 1.46%-5.23%, 1.46%-5.23% and 1.32%-4.95%, respectively.

The amounts of depreciation recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were $4,575 thousand and $5,099 thousand, respectively.

The maturity analysis of lease payments receivable under operating leases of investment properties was as follows:

  • c. Appropriation of earnings and dividend policy

In accordance with the policy, TWM’s profits earned in a fiscal year shall first be set aside to pay the applicable taxes, offset losses, and set aside for legal reserve pursuant to laws and regulations, unless the legal reserve has reached TWM’s total paid-up capital. The remaining profits shall be set aside for special reserve in accordance with laws, regulations, or business requirements. Any further remaining profits plus unappropriated earnings shall be distributed in accordance with the proposal submitted by the Board of Directors for approval at a stockholders’ meeting.

TWM adopts a dividend distribution policy whereby only surplus profits of TWM shall be distributed to stockholders. That is, after setting aside amounts for retained earnings based on TWM’s capital budget plan, the residual profits shall be distributed as cash dividends. Stock dividends in a particular year shall be capped at no more than 80% of total dividends to be distributed for that year. The amount of the distributable dividends, the forms in which dividends shall be distributed, and the ratio thereof shall depend on the actual profit and cash positions of TWM and shall be approved by resolutions of the Board of Directors, who shall, upon such approval, recommend the same to the stockholders for approval by resolution at the stockholders’ meetings.

The above appropriation of earnings should be resolved in the annual general stockholders’ meeting (AGM) held in the following year.

According to the ROC Company Act, a company shall first set aside its earning for legal reserve until it equals the paid-in capital. The legal reserve may offset losses. After offsetting any deficit, the legal reserve may be transferred to capital and distributed as stock dividends or cash dividends for the amount in excess of 25% of the paid-in capital pursuant to a resolution adopted in the stockholders’ meeting.

Pursuant to existing regulations, TWM is required to set aside and reverse additional special reserve equivalent to the net debit balance of the other equity interests, such as the exchange differences on translation and unrealized gain or loss on financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income.

For notes and accounts receivable, please refer to Note 8.

The Group measures the loss allowance for contract assets at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. The contract assets will be transferred to accounts receivable when the corresponding invoice is billed to the client, and the contract assets have substantially the same risk as the trade receivables. Therefore, the Group concluded that the expected loss rates for trade receivables can be applied to the contract assets.

The Group considered the past experience and the default clauses in the sale contracts and believed the commission and the subsidy paid for obtaining a contract are wholly recoverable, therefore, such costs are capitalized. The amounts of amortization recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were $369,214 thousand and $483,739 thousand, respectively.

Since TWM has the discretion to settle the employees’ compensation by cash or stock, TWM should presume that the entire amount of the compensation will be settled in stock, and the potential stock dilution should be included in the weighted-average number of stock outstanding used in the calculation of diluted EPS, provided there is a dilutive effect. Such dilutive effect of the potential stock needs to be included in the calculation of diluted EPS until employees’ compensation is approved in the following year.

27. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Group maintains and manages its capital to meet the minimum paid-in capital required by the competent authority, and to optimize the balance of liabilities and equity in order to maximize stockholders’ return. By periodically reviewing and measuring relative cost, risk, and rate of return to ensure profit and to maintain adequate financial ratios, the Group may adopt various financing approaches to balance its capital structure in order to meet the demands for capital expenditures, working capital, settlements of liabilities, and dividend payments in its normal course of business for the future.

The fair value of bonds payable is measured by Level 2 inputs, using a volume-weighted average price on the TPEx at the end of the reporting period.

  • 2) Fair value of financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The table below provides the related analysis of financial instruments at fair value after initial recognition. Based on the extent that fair value can be observed, the fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3:

  • Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

  • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

  • Level 3: Inputs for the assets or liabilities are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Valuation techniques and assumptions used in fair value determination

  • a) The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices (including stocks of publicly traded companies).

  • b) Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 2 fair value measurement:

For foreign unlisted stocks, the Group takes price fluctuations and risk-free rates into consideration by using the market comparison approach. Call options of convertible bonds that adopted binomial tree valuation model were evaluated by the observable closing price of the stocks, volatility, risk-free interest rate, risk discount rate, and liquidity risk at the balance sheet date.

  • c) Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 3 fair value measurement:

Equity instruments

The evaluation of fair value of unlisted stocks is mainly referenced to the same type of companies through the market approach or asset approach. The unobservable input parameter was liquidity discount rates, which were ranging from 9% to 25%, 10.7% to 25% and 20% to 30% as of March 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, respectively.

  • 38 -

The fair value of limited partnerships investments was evaluated through the market approach and income approach. The evaluation and assumptions are mainly referenced to related information of comparable market targets and estimated future cash flows. The unobservable input parameter was liquidity discount rates, which were estimated at 31.6%, 33.5% and 33.5% as of March 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, respectively.

  • c. Financial risk management

  • 1) The Group’s major financial instruments include equity investments, trade receivables, trade payables, commercial papers payable, bonds payable, borrowings, lease liabilities, etc., and the Group is exposed to the following risks due to usage of financial instruments:

    • a) Credit risk

    • b) Liquidity risk

    • c) Market risk

This note presents information concerning the Group’s risk exposure and the Group’s targets, policies and procedures to measure and manage the risks.

  • 39 -

  • 2) Risk management framework

  • a) Decision-making mechanism

The Board of Directors is the highest supervisory and decision-making body responsible for assessing material risks, designating actions to control these risks, and keeping track of their execution. In addition, the Operations and Management Committee conducts periodic reviews of each business group’s operating target and performance to meet the Group’s guidance and budget.

  • b) Risk management policies

  • i. Promote a risk-management-based business model.

  • ii. Establish a risk management mechanism that can effectively recognize, evaluate, supervise and control risk.

iii. Create a company-wide risk management structure that can limit risk to an acceptable level.

  • iv. Introduce best risk management practices and continue to seek improvements.

  • c) Monitoring mechanism

The Internal Audit Office assesses the potential risks that the Group may face and uses this information as a reference for determining its annual audit plan. The Internal Audit Office reports the results and findings of performing such procedures, and follows up the discrepancies, if any, for actions.

3) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty would default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss. The maximum credit exposure of the aforementioned financial instruments is equal to their carrying amounts recognized in consolidated balance sheet as of the balance sheet date. The Group has large trade receivables outstanding with its customers. A substantial majority of the Group’s outstanding trade receivables are not covered by collateral or credit insurance. The Group has implemented ongoing measures including enhancing credit assessments and strengthening overall risk management to reduce its credit risk. While the Group has procedures to monitor and limit exposure to credit risk on trade receivables, there can be no assurance such procedures will effectively limit its credit risk and avoid losses. This risk is heightened during periods when economic conditions worsen.

As the Group serves a large number of unrelated consumers, the concentration of credit risk was limited.

4) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group fails to meet the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach to manage liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it always has sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable loss or damage to the Group’s reputation.

  • 40 -

The Group manages and maintains sufficient level of capital to ensure the requirements of paying estimated operating expenditures, including financial obligations on each contract. The Group also monitors its bank credit facilities to ensure that the Group fully complies with the provisions and financial covenants of loan contracts. As of March 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the Group had unused bank facilities of $62,898,922 thousand, $65,511,976 thousand and $56,962,756 thousand, respectively.

The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Group’s financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments, but not including the financial liabilities whose carrying amounts approximate contractual cash flows.

5) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and equity prices, will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within an acceptable range and to optimize the return.

The Group carefully evaluates each financial instrument transaction involving any risk such as exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and market price risk in order to decrease potential influences caused by market uncertainty.

a) Exchange rate risk

The Group mainly operates in Taiwan, except for international roaming services. Most of the operating revenue and expenses are measured in NTD. A small portion of the expenses is paid in USD, EUR, etc.; thus, the Group purchases currency at the spot rate based on the conservative principle in order to hedge exchange rate risk.

The Group’s foreign currency assets and liabilities exposed to significant exchange rate risk were as follows:

Refer to Note 23(a) for the information related to the Group’s realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Due to the variety of foreign currency transactions and functional currencies, the Group could not disclose the foreign exchange gains (losses) for each foreign currency with significant influence.

  • 43 -

Sensitivity analysis

The Group’s exchange rate risk comes mainly from conversion gains and losses of accounts denominated in monetary items of foreign currencies. If there had been an unfavorable 5% movement in the levels of foreign exchanges against NTD at the end of the reporting period (with other factors remaining constant at the end of the reporting period and with analyses of the two periods on the same basis), profit would have decreased by $61,240 thousand and $47,580 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

b) Interest rate risk

The Group issued unsecured straight corporate bonds and signed facility agreements with financial institutions for locking in medium- and long-term fixed interest rates. In respect of interest payables, the fluctuation of interest rates does not affect the Group significantly.

The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities exposed to interest rate risk were as follows:

March 31, December 31, December 31, March 31,
2021 2020 2020
Fair value interest rate risk
Financial assets $
7,426,514
$ 5,218,262 $
5,918,806
Financial liabilities 75,714,811 76,502,983 69,505,499
Cash flow interest rate risk
Financial assets 5,796,946 6,486,835 4,083,053
Financial liabilities 2,535,180 2,586,036 6,138,531

Sensitivity analysis

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the exposure to interest rate risk of derivative and non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating-rate assets and liabilities, the analysis assumes that the balances of outstanding assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period have been outstanding for the whole period and that the changes in interest rates are reasonable. If the interest rate had increased by 50 basis points (with other factors remaining constant at the end of the reporting period and with analyses of the two periods on the same basis), profit would have increased by $4,077 thousand and decreased by $2,569 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

c) Other market price risk

The exposure to equity price risk is mainly due to holding of stocks. The Group manages the risk by maintaining portfolios of investments with different risks and by continuously monitoring the future developments and market trends of investment targets.

Sensitivity analysis

If the prices of equity instruments had decreased by 5% (with other factors remaining constant and with the analyses of the two periods on the same basis), other comprehensive income would have decreased by $137,634 thousand and $220,663 thousand since the fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
