  • (II) Effect of external competition, the legal environment, and the overall business environment:

  • External competition environment:

In 2020, the LED industry was affected by the global COVID-19 pandemic. The public’s awareness of health management has increased significantly, and the demand for various pandemic containmentrelated consumer products has also increased. The price drop and the competitive pressure in the Chinese LED industry have forced many small player into a plight of bankruptcy and exiting market, while medium and large companies have closed part of capacity or ceased positioning the mid-upstream epitaxy/crystal grain market. Therefore, the global LED industry order has significantly improved, prompting the pressure of price competition decreased significantly. In recent years, although the scale of the LED industry in various application markets such as lighting, backlighting, and display, will continue to expand, driving great LED demand potential, but the fierce price competition in the global LED industry, coupled with the rapid penetration of lighting and other application markets, most manufacturers’ production expansions have tended to be conservative, and increase the margings by positioning new markets or new technology development, to avoid falling into the contest of low margins. With the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and intelligent lighting, driven by energy saving and intellectualization, in the future, the interdisciplinary integration and intelligent manufacturing are the main development trends.

2. Legal environment:

The “Minamata Convention on Mercury” specifies that the manufacture, import and export of which will be altogether prohibited since 2020. Taiwan’s Environmental Protection Administration has announced the amendments to management items of Toxic Chemical Substance Control Act for Mercury to enhance our control measures with respect to mercury products to comply with the Convention. It means that the application traditional UV mercury lamp has become a history, and the UVC LEDs has replaced the existing UV mercury lamps. The application of sterilizing UVC LEDs have also attracted global attention. Meanwhile, in response to the changes in the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, demands for UV LED and IR LED and other products have grown.

3. Overall business environment:

Other than the basic growth backdrop of the global economy, the growth of the global optoelectronics industry still depends on breakthrough commercialization technologies, effective innovative applications and the infusion of emerging markets. Looking to the future, with the infusion of new applications, the global optoelectronics market looks for the next decade of the LED industry, and explore applications with the possibility of rapid growth in the future. Emerging applications, such as Mini/Micro LED, automotive lighting, high-end health lighting and UV/IR LED are all worthy for market attention. In addition, as Mini LED technology matures, process yields increase, and the development of widely discussed 3D sensing, it is expected to increase the demand for LED lighting, and it will be positively helpful to reduce the production capacity of LED crystal grain manufacturers.

To develop products of greater prospective and marketability, in recent years, the Company is fully dedicated in the research and development of high power IR LED and light-receiving component the fields of automobile, medical care, wearable devices, and precision control. In addition, the Company is also active in the investment of relevant product application fields. With the rapid growth of the optoelectronic market, the application scope of various products continues to expand, and the market demand is increasing. To satisfy the market demand, the Company will continue to focus on the development of the following products:

As the COVID-19 vaccine has been launched, and some countries have begun the vaccination, it is expected that pandemic containment in 2021 to be gradually stabilized. Coupled with the continuous expansion of stimulus by governments of various countries, and the warming of the LED downstream application market, these factors are positive to drive the overall operating environment. For the development of the LED industry, the keys of survival depends on how to choose scale economies and niche market development strategies.

*Where stock dividends were paid from earnings or capital reserves, market price and cash dividends per share are adjusted retrospectively for the number of new shares issued.

Note 1: The table shows the highest and lowest market price of common shares in each year; average market price is calculated by weighing transacted prices against transacted volumes in the respective years.

Note 2: Calculated based on the number of outstanding shares at year-end; amount of distribution resolved in next year's shareholders meeting is presented in the table.

Note 3: Where stock dividends were issued, EPS are disclosed in amounts before and after retrospective adjustments.

Note 4: If equity securities are issued with terms that allow dividends to be accrued and accumulated until the year the Company makes profit, the amount of cumulative undistributed dividends up until the current year is disclosed separately.

  • 67 -

Note 5: P/E ratio = average closing price per share for the year / earnings per share.

  • Note 6: Price to dividends ratio = average closing price per share for the year / cash dividends per share.

  • Note 7: Cash dividend yield = cash dividends per share / average closing price per share for the current year.

  • Note 8: Net worth per share and earnings per share are based on auditor-reviewed data as of the first quarter of 2021. For all other fields, calculations are based on data as at the end of their respective years.

  • Note 9: The 2020 earnings appropriation will be distributed in cash. The board of directors has been authorized under the Articles of Incorporation to approve the decision, provided that the decision is resolved in a board of directors meeting with at least two-thirds of directors present, voted in favor by more than half of attending directors, and reported in the upcoming shareholder meeting.

(VII) Dividend policy and execution:

1. Dividend policy:

Annual surpluses concluded by the Company are first subject taxation and reimbursement of previous losses, followed by a 10% provision for statutory reserves; however, no further provision is needed when statutory reserves have accumulated to the same amount as the Company's paid-up capital. Any surpluses remaining shall then be subject to provision or reversal of special reserves, as the laws may require. The residual balance is then added to unappropriated earnings carried from previous years (including adjustments), which the board of directors may propose to distribute or withhold to reimburse losses. Shareholders' resolution is required if the appropriation involves issuance of new shares.

The Company adopts a dividend policy that allows the board of directors to propose dividends after taking into consideration the Company's future capital requirements, long-term financial plans, and shareholders' needs for cash inflow. Profit sharing to shareholders can be paid in cash or shares, provided that the cash portion does not amount to less than 10% of total profit sharing.

Any cash distribution of dividend, profit, legal reserve or capital reserve, whether in whole or in part, must be resolved in a board meeting with more than two-thirds of the board present, voted in favor by more than half of attending directors, and reported in the upcoming shareholder meeting.

  1. Earnings distribution proposed to this AGM:

On June 24, 2019, The shareholders' meeting approved the amendment to Article 18-1 of the Company's Articles of Incorporation, authorizing the Board of Directors to resolve the distribution of cash dividends every six months. The cash dividends approved by the Company's Board of Directors for 2020 are shown in the following table.

(II) Industry Overview

1. Industry status and overview

In 2020, the global LED component industry production value reached USD 14.3 billion, a sharp decline of 9%. All regions have also experienced recession: Europe was -5%, South Korea was -14%, Taiwan was -8%, China was -13%, the United States was -8%, and Japan was -7%. From the perspective of the change in the market share of production value, China still ranks first in terms of the global LED component production value, with a market share of 27%, followed by Japan at 21%, Taiwan at 18%, and South Korea at 15%. However, if we only look at the production value of global LED packages and modules, it declined by 8% in 2020, reaching about USD12.1 billion. For the production value of each region, the Japanese market is ranked first with 25% of market share, closedly followed by China, with 20%, and Europe, South Korea, and Taiwan are all 16%. In terms of the production value of application fields, lighting applications will be the largest in 2020 with 30%, followed by LCD backlights at 25%, automotive at 20%, mobile devices at 10%, outdoor billboards/signs/indicators at 5%, and electronic equipment/others at 10%.

Looking forward to 2021, due to the diversification of LED applications, the industrial recovery of each application category is also different. From the view of traditional backlight applications, remote working and teaching derived from the 2020 pandemic have become the norms in lives, driving the demand for consumer electronic products such as tablets and laptops. Benefited from the strong demand for panels, LED backlight-related companies have performed well. However, they are worried about that most consumers had consumed in advance this year, so they have been conservative about whether the strong market demand in 2020 will continue in 2021.

From the perspective of general lighting, LED lighting applications have declined sharply due to the impact of the pandemic. The decline in the number of commercial activities has led to the most obvious decline in the demand for commercial lighting and outdoor landscape lighting. In contrast, demand in the field of plant lighting has risen sharply, as the gradual legalization of marijuana cultivation in North America, and the pandemic has resulted in the medical and entertainment marijuana market to soar; in addition, the impact of the pandemic on the food supply chain is gradually showing, and the investment and construction of indoor planting agriculture has been heating up again. It is expected that some lighting applications in 2021 will begin to bottom out and rebound.

  1. Linkages among the industry’s up-, mid-, and downstream

LED is a kind of semiconductor electronic component; the current drives the conversion of electric energy into light output. It is one of the main modern light sources and is commonly used in lightings, screen backlighting or display purposes.

The links of LED lighting industry are summarized as follows:

• Sapphire wafer and materials (such as FitTech manufacturers, and raw • Suppliers of LED
packages, modules

etc.) grain (e.g. Epistar, etc.)
TYNTEK, Optotech.. etc.)
----- End of picture text -----

The upstream of the LED lighting industry chain is the suppliers of sapphire wafers and substrates; the midstream is the suppliers of production process and testing equipment, including suppliers of epitaxy generation equipment, LED wafer testing, picking equipment, and epitaxial wafers and crystal grains; and the downstream is suppliers of LED packaging, modules and LED lamps.

The key upstream LED materials are sapphire wafers and substrates. The substrates have become the key materials for making ultrahigh-luminance blue, green, blue-green and white light LED crystal grains. At present, 4-inch and 6-inch specifications are the mainstream in the market. Suppliers mostly work towards 6 inches or differentiation-oriented. After the rise of LED applications, Japanese, Korean, Taiwanese, and Chinese manufacturers have engaged in this material field. The larger companies become larger, and the first-tier manufacturers own 80% of market share. The key products of LED midstream are single chip/crystal grain and epitaxial wafer/crystal grain. Depending on the needs of different LED components, LED epitaxial wafer electrodes are produced through processes such as diffusion, metal film deposition, etching, and heat treatment, and then the epitaxial substrate is thinned and polished and then diced into single crystal grains. In the past few years, Chinese manufacturers have actively expanded their factories, causing product prices to fall, and some application markets are saturated. Therefore, the wavelength and electrical characteristics of LED epitaxy are highly discrete. Hence, the reliance on detection and sorting is required, and the market scale growth is limted, leading to global overcapacity. Consequently, the global epitaxy companies have been moving towards consolidation or strengthening R&D of niche products, in order to reduce costs and enhance product competitiveness. The downstream of LED is the crystal grain packaging, modules, and lights and lighting application industries. According to different packaging technologies, there are various types of components such as shell type, display type, dot matrix type, surface mount type...etc.

3. Various development trends and competitive situations of products

In recent years, the European lighting giants have spun off their lighting business, for independent listing or reselling to other mainland Chinese companies, to focus on solidification of high-margin automotive LEDs, invisible lights, special lighting, and expanding emerging Micro LED applications. Korean manufacturers have led the exit from the LCD industry, focusing on the development of OLED displays or engaging in next-generation Micro LED or quantum dot displays. Although the Chinese LED lighting industry has achieved global manufacturing status and cultivated international lighting companies, it still has not been able to stop the cutthroat competition of LED lighting components. Facing the recession after the wave of display expansion in mainland China, the LED component manufacturers in both Taiwan and China were impacted and adjusted the proportion of operations, to include four-element, automotive, invisible light, Mini LED, and development of non-LED products such as VCSEL and GaN HEMT components.

After the bloody competition of mobile phones, display backlights, and lighting, automotive LEDs still hold on to good profits, and Mini/Micro LEDs will undoubtedly be the focus of the next wave of global LED components competition. In 2020, the global LED component industry still have had imbalance demand-supply and destocking due to the expansion of production by Chinese companies. Among them, LED chips and crystal grains are the most challenged. The production value of Taiwan's LED epitaxial wafers and crystal grains has fallen sharply by more than 10% for two consecutive years. In 2020, the production value has fallen to NT$20 billion.

In recent years, general backlight and lighting applications have entered the oversupplied Red Sea

market. Taiwan’s LED epitaxial wafer and crystal grain industry has experienced a huge decline in production value over the past two years, and the capacity utilization rate has been generally poor, and a lot of resources have been invested in Mini LED and expansion of the application of the III-V group semiconductors, the Company's operating still have great pressure of operating loss. Although LED packaging and module companies have more diversified application fields and profit-making companies are more, they still cannot escape the plight of a sharp decline in earnings as a whole. Taiwan's LED epitaxial wafer and crystal grain industry manufacturers have reduced the market weight of display backlights and lighting components with cutthrough price competition, and some manufacturers have expanded silicon sensing components to the earnings. And the technology continues to evolve to shrink the crystal grain size to the Mini LED/Micro LED level, in order to create a better market demand for display backlights and display billboard applications. In addition, the reach is also extended to the III-V group semiconductor VCSEL (3D sensors and VR/AR), GaN/Si (electricity and electronic components) and other non-LED component applications.

In 2020, Taiwan’s top ten LED epitaxy companies have witness a 10% decline in revenue; almost all of the major crystal grain players entered recession decline industry competition. The Company has been actively transforming and expanding non-LED silicon sensing components to secure the earnings. In 2020, the production value of Taiwan’s LED packaging and modules is about NT$58.7 billion, the decline expanded to nearly 8%. Taiwan’s LED packaging component companies have been gradually withdrawing from the fields of general LED backlights, LED lighting components, and bulbs/lamps, continuing to shift to invisible light for smart home applications and display billboards, CSP Flash of wearable devices, lighting of Internet of Things, automotive LED components of Internet of Vehicles, and Mini LED for display backlighting.

The Company is actively expanding into non-LED fields including sensors as a means to satisfy demand for applications such as wearable device, automobile, consumer electronics, and medicine.

  1. Demand and supply conditions for the market in the future and the market's growth potential (1) Market demands

In the past, visible light LEDs were only required to be used as micro light sources for indication applications, using gallium phosphide (GaP), gallium arsenide phosphide (GaAsP) and other secondary and ternary low-power LED products. As LED technology continues to move towards the development of high luminance, high power, and high luminous efficiency, and the application market to be covered is getting bigger and bigger.

For example, high-luminance four-element AlGaInP is made to red and yellow LEDs, which are commonly used in outdoor billboards, automobiles, displays and other products, and highpower four-element products are used in auxiliary lighting with changeable colors. As for highluminance blue and green LEDs, InGaN is used as the luminescent material. Blue LED crystal grains are often made into white-light LED packaging products, and the product application has expanded to huge markets such as display backlights and lighting. High-power lasers exhibit packaging technologies for different heat dissipation requirements, such as TO-CAN packaging, and direct welding of laser particles to metal blocks to meet the integration of C/CT-mount packaging and modules for high-power laser heat dissipation. Observing the overall visible light LED products, widely used in mobile devices, electronic equipment, outdoor billboards, automotive, lighting, display backlights, traffic signs, projector light sources, and wearable device applications.

are suitable for indoor vehicle applications including gesture recognition, seat occupancy and driver monitoring, and thus driving the market growth growing up.

In recent years, infrared lasers (VCSEL / EEL) have gradually attracted the attention of the market. With the advantages of resonant cavity design, small light divergence angle, high photoelectric conversion efficiency and fast data transmission speed, it has gradually been applied to the consumer market, including distance sensing, automatic focus, mobile phone's 3D face recognition and LiDAR, iris recognition and air and water quality detection, and even provide high-resolution picture quality for car night vision lighting. The recent 5G topic become populr, and the requirements for components in the optical communications field, such as the data transmission capacity, bandwidth and distance of optical fibers, will also be the focus of subsequent development; in the face recognition system of smart phones and the space recognition system of tablet, VCSEL has been being used as a laser light source, and its application penetrates rapidly. 3D sensing is an important indicator in the specifications competition for the flagship phones of mobile phone brands. It is mainly used in the rear camera, and the functions include ranging, image blurring, 3D object recognition, spatial modeling and augmented reality, and are further equipped with 5G transmission functions, it has become the standard equipment for highend models. Research institutes predict that the total production value of 3D sensing VCSELs in 2021 will increase to USD1.842 billion, with an annual growth rate of 53%.

Micro LED is currently the most valued by all aspects of LED industry. Due to its excellent performance, it can be used in a wide range of applications, including mobile phones, wearable watches, car displays, TVs, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR). And mixed reality (MR) and other fields, as well as AR micro-projection devices with high luminance requirements, automotive HUD projection applications, and even super-large display billboards. Coupled with the recovery of the global automobile market, Micro LED is more widely used in AR, MR devices and the application of automotive panels. According to data from research institutions, it is estimated that in 2024, Micro LED TV and large-scale display applications will have a chip production value of US$2.3 billion.

Ultraviolet LEDs use AlGaN and AlInGaN as materials, which are used in banknote recognition, photoresin hardening, insect trapping, and printing, and are further developed toward higher-level deep ultraviolet sterilization function, 3D printing and other applications. In 2020, the new coronavirus (COVID-19) outbroke globally. UVC, a kind of short-wave ultraviolet rays with a wavelength of 100 nm to 280 nm and the highest energy and the strongest bactericidal power; the principle of sterilization is to directly destroy the structure of DNA and RNA in the center of pathogenic life by exposing them under UVC, so that the formation of the protein that constitutes the microorganism is prevented, resulting in death and loss of reproduction ability. As UVC functions for surface sterilization, static water sterilization, and flowing water sterilization, it can be applied to medical appliances, maternal and child products, surfaces of facilities frequently contacted, such as escalator handrails, and automatic ticket machine buttons, water tanks of fountains, mobile water sterilization modules, consumer home appliances such as water dispensers, air purifiers, and air conditioners, or portable disinfection products; therefore, demands for various pandemic prevention products have risen sharply. According to reports, a manufacturer has developed a portable ultraviolet irradiator with deep ultraviolet LEDs, featuring an emission wavelength of 280 nanometers and a light output of 70 milliwatts. Experiments have confirmed that the product eliminates 99.99% of the virus particles by irradiating the new coronavirus for 30 seconds from 5 cm away.

Looking forward to 2021, as the COVID-19 vaccine has begun to be on the market, and some countries have begun vaccination, it is expected that the pandemic control in the first half of 2021 is expected to gradually stabilize. Together with the continuous expansion of the revitalization policy by the governments of various countries, it is conducive to the strengthening of the domestic and international economic recovery and the downstream application of LED The warming of the market is conducive to driving the overall business environment and the development of the LED industry. In addition, in response to the development trend of emerging technologies such as AI and big data, the demand for LED sensing components and LED interactive display signs has increased. In addition, Taiwan’s LED industry is actively deploying niche markets and making successful transitions. In addition, as the operating contribution from niche market increased in weights, it has promoted the improvement of the industry's prosperity.

The order of the global LED industry has improved significantly, and the mass production of new Mini LED products has gradually expanded. At the same time, the pandemic has led to an increase in the demand for UV LEDs. It has also benefited from the at-home economy, longdistance business opportunities, and the subsidies provided by Japanese government to promote students to purchase laptop and other positive factors, driving the global demand for notebook, LCD monitors, and tablets to stay stable, supporting the demand for the backlight market. As governments of various countries have gradually relaxed control measures due to the slowdown of the pandemic, the economies in these countries have recovered gradually, and prompted the consumer market rebound.

(2) Supplies

As domestic manufacturers have mature traditional visible light LED production technology, and Chinese manufacturers have joined the LED crystal grain production when the domestic LED crystal grain producers has expanded capacity as the same time, the price competition of traditional visible light LEDs has intensified. In other words, the market was oversupplied. Since the raw materials for upstream epitaxial wafers for the production of high-luminance visible light LEDs are still under Japan’s control, some domestic manufacturers have successively engaged in the development of upstream epitaxy growth technology in recent years, and mainland China local governments subsidized MOCVD equipment procurement led to the rapid development of China’s LED chip market in 2013-2017, growing from CNY8.25 billion to CNY18.80 billion. The market size increased by CNY10.55 billion in five years, with an average annual compound growth rate of 22.9%; with the penetration of LED lighting products, the demand for the LED chip market has climbed. In 2018, the scale of China's LED chip market exceeded CNY20 billion, resulting in an imbalance supply and demand in the industry.

After the global LED industry has gone through many cycles of economy, coupled with the continuous trade disputes between the United States and China, and the reduced Chinese government subsidy policies, China’s LED industry has undergone many reshuffles; in particular, in the second half of 2019, some major manufacturers have withdrawn partially one after another. Meanwhile, since 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has hit the world, which also affected the expansion of various industries. In addition, when all industries see the long-term development potential of Mini LED, active engagement of LED manufacturers from all over the world have been witnessed. Not only quite a lot of Taiwanese manufacturer launched mass production, the Chinese LED players have also been engaged in. According to statistics from other companies, China has invested CNY38.2 billion since 2019. However, under the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the mass production schedules of the Chinese plyaer have been delayed. It is expected that after 2021, mass production would be more obvious within China's Mini LED capacity. Therefore, it is expected that the global LED industry order will continue to maintain a good situation from the view of suppy, especially amid the US-China trade conflict, to avoid disputes over the place of origin, it is getting apparent that LED companies tend to procure from nonChinese supply chain, and which is positive for the growth of Taiwanese companies.

The demand for sensing components used in medical products has risen sharply. However, due to the impact of the pandemic, the demand for LEDs is poor. However, the market demand for invisible light products in LED products has increased significantly, including invisible light products and optical coupling are preparing for price hike. With the continuous expansion of LED downstream applications and the gradual increase in market penetration, emerging markets such as high-value-added lighting, small-pitch displays, and automotive LEDs will bring incremental space to the industry. After industry consolidation, capacity clearing, and industrial automation upgrading, the LED industry is expected to gradually improve under the push of supply and demand improvement. With the most eye-catching Mini LED technology gradually overcoming bottlenecks and reducing overall costs, research institutions estimate that the production value of Mini LED chips in backlight TV applications in 2021 will be USD270 million, demonstrating the opportunities not to be underestimated.

The consolidated company has the ability to produce infrared LEDs, and the infrared wireless data transmission module (IrDA module) manufactured in accordance with the communication standards set by the Infrared Data Transmission Association (IrDA) in the U.S. uses infrared data for data transmission. As this may replace the function of data transmission cables between computers and peripherals, or PDAs, with the low cost, and the frequency range used out of the scope of national laws and regulations, it is expected that the application of infrared LEDs in this area will continue to grow considerably in the future. Although the major applications of infrared LED are still remote control or security control applications, the infrared LED market applications are very wide, including image sensing, body sensing/motion detection, light blocking sensing, proximity switches, position sensing, biometrics, pulse oximetry detection. In the future, the application of infrared LEDs in handheld application devices, including information security and

  • 79 -

health management, and their added values, have a promising margin and it is expected to drive the growth of infrared LED revenues. With the rise of VR devices, iris/face recognition applications, IR LEDs also emerge, and infrared (IR) lighting applications in medical equipment and solid-state lasers continue to increase. On the other hand, from the demand side, IR LEDs and UV LEDs are gradually gaining business opportunities in the sensor and medical markets, respectively. However, this type of application belongs to a more customized market, depending on the different customer use occasions and environments, quite different demand characteristics are generated. It is expected to bring higher margins and competitiveness. In 2020, although the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the application market of industrial curing, plant lighting, and photocatalyst, and thus the market size of UVA and UVB declined, but the global market scale of UVC LEDs in 2020 will perform with a higher growth from 2019, driven by the substantial growth of the market with many sterilization and purification products launched. It is expected that the Company will continue to develop into a higher technological level or a niche market.

  1. Competition niches

The reason why the consolidated company is able to stabilize in the highly competitive LED market and maintain a certain market share, its competitive niche roughly are analyzed as follows: (1) Industry aspect Because LED products have the advantages of energy saving, less heat generation, compact, long life and fast response rate, they have long been widely used in consumer electronics, computer information/OA products, communication products, automobiles, signs/display billboards, industrial instrumentation/equipment and other fields. The new application fields are still being explored and developed, such as medical treatment, security monitoring, wearable devices, and smart lighting applications. Besides, the technology-intensive industrial characteristic of the LED industry drives the upgrading of traditional industries, and supports the development of other key technology industries. LED may be regarded as the star industry of the 21st century, so the overall industry prospects should be optimistic.

Because the domestic LED industry has been developing in Taiwan for more than 40 years since 1972, the technical capabilities of the middle and lower reaches are mature and stable, and the division of labor between the upper, middle and lower reaches is complete, and it can be integrated with related industries such as information, electronics, and semiconductors. Therefore, the overall industrial environment has a competitive advantage. (2) Company aspect A. The capacity has reached the economic scale

In addition, the consolidated company has expanded its capacity in recent years, becoming one of the top ten local crystal grain manufacturers in Taiwan. After the consolidated company’s factories officially launched mass-production, the costs have been reduced and product competitiveness has been increased.

  • (2) Negative factors and responses

A. The source of raw materials is mainly concentrated in Japan, to which the dependence is high. At present, in the regard of LED upstream raw materials, especially epitaxial wafers, Japan has the advanced technologies and economic scale, and thus domestic LED midstream chip manufacturers mostly imported the raw materials from Japan with the consideration of quality and costs; which leads the risk of concentration of raw material sources. Countermeasures:

  • 1.Japan's Shin-Etsu Semiconductor has cooperated with Taiwan to set up a factory in Hsinchu Science Industrial Park in 1996 to manufacture gallium phosphide (GaP) epitaxial wafers. The direct supply from here may satisfy part of the company's demand for raw materials, thereby reducing its dependence on Japan.

  • 2.Actively purchase epitaxial wafers from regions other than Japan to diversify the risk of procurement concentration.

  • 81 -

  • 3.Cooperate with domestic GaP wafer fabs to reduce dependence on Japan.

  • 4.Establish long-term cooperative relations with major raw material suppliers to stabilize the source of raw materials.

  • 5.Continue to develop and improve the production technology capabilities of epitaxial wafers on our own, such as the quality and quantity of GaAs epitaxial wafers, to reduce dependence on foreign epitaxial wafers.

  • B. Risk of exchange rate changes

Most of the main raw materials of the consolidated company are imported from abroad, leading to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. Faced with exchange rate risks, the countermeasures of the consolidated company are as follows:

  - 1.Sale or purchase of forward foreign exchange in advance.

  - 2.Strengthen procurement capabilities, reduce costs of raw material purchase, and negotiate sharing exchange rate risks with suppliers. If the magnitude exchange rate changes increases, transaction price will be renegotiated with the supplier.

  - 3.Strengthen the ability to develop sources of incoming materials and avoid excessive influence from a single currency exchange rate.

  - 4.The quotation system with customers include the consideration of selling price adjustment due to exchange rate changes to protect the Company's existing profits.

  - 5.Pay the expenditure in foreign currency generated from importation with the export revenue in same currency, to shift partial FX risks.

  - 6.Adjust foreign currency positions based on exchange rate changes.

Reasons of changes in each finance ratios during the recent two years
1. Financial structure: the decrease in liability ratio decreased due to the decrease in short-term liquidity loans.
2. Solvency: mainly due to the decrease in short-term liquidity loans.
3. Operating efficiency: mainly due to the decrease in short-term liquidity loans.
4. Profitability: due to the increase in non-industry income resulting in an increase in profit after-tax in the year.
5. Cash flow: The cash reinvestment ratio increased due to the decrease in cash dividends.
6. Leverage: The financial leverage is negative because operating profit is lower than financial cost.

Note: All yearly financial information presented above has been audited.

Formula for financial analyses (IFRS):

  1. Financial position

  2. (1) Debt to asset ratio = total liabilities/ total assets.

  3. (2) Long-term capital to property, plant and equipment = (total equity + non-current liabilities) / net property, plant and equipment.

  4. Solvency

  5. (1) Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities.

  6. (2) Quick ratio = (current assets - inventory - prepayments) / current liabilities.

  7. (3) Interest coverage ratio = earnings before interest and tax / interest expenses for the current period.

  8. Operating efficiency

  9. (1) Receivables turnover (including accounts receivable and notes receivable from business activities) = net sales / average

receivables balance (including accounts receivable and notes receivable from business activities).

  • (2) Average cash collection days = 365 / receivables turnover.

  • (3) Inventory turnover = cost of sales/average inventory balance.

  • (4) Payables turnover (including accounts payable and notes payable for business activities) = cost of sales / average payables balance (including accounts payable and notes payable for business activities).

  • (5) Average inventory turnover days = 365 / inventory turnover.

  • (6) Property, plant and equipment turnover = net sales / average net property, plant and equipment balance.

  • (7) Total asset turnover = net sales / average total assets.

  • Profitability

  • (1) Return on assets = (net income + interest expenses x (1- tax rate)) / average asset balance.

  • (2) Return on equity = net income / average shareholders' equity.

  • (3) Net profit margin = net income / net sales.

  • (4) Earnings per share = (net income attributable to parent company shareholders - preferred share dividends) / weighted average outstanding shares.

  • Cash flow

  • (1) Cash flow ratio = net cash flow from operating activities / current liabilities.

  • (2) Cash flow adequacy ratio = net cash flow from operating activities for the previous 5 years / (capital expenditure + increase in inventory + cash dividends) for the previous 5 years.

  • (3) Cash reinvestment ratio = (net cash flow from operating activities - cash dividends) / (gross property, plant and equipment + long-term investments + other non-current assets + working capital).

  • Degree of leverage:

(1) Degree of operating leverage = (net operating revenues - variable operating costs and expenses) / operating profit.

  • (2) Degree of financial leverage = operating profit / (operating profit - interest expense).

Independent Auditors’ Review Report

To TYNTEK Corporation,

Audit opinion

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of TYNTEK Corporation (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group”) for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the relevant consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and relevant notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies “(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, 2020 and 2019 and for the years then ended, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, the 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 (FSC) of the Republic of China.

Basis for audit opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China for 2020. Our responsibility under those standards is further described in the section of "Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements". 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 are convinced that we have acquired enough and appropriate audit evidence to serve as the basis of audit opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters refer to the most vital matters in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended December 31, 20 2020 based on our professional judgment. These matters were addressed in our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our audit opinion. We do not express a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matters of the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2020 are stated as follows:

Revenue recognition

Due to some sales customers’ needs, the Group places inventory in the domestic and overseas warehouses or overseas shipping warehouses designated by the sales customers. The recognition of sales revenue is based on the receipt details provided by the customers’ designated warehouse custodians, which were checked by the dedicated personnel of the Group. As domestic and overseas warehouses and overseas shipping warehouses are not directly managed by the Group, we listed the authenticity of the sales related to the domestic and overseas warehouses and overseas shipping warehouses a key audit matter for this year. For the accounting policies and information disclosed related to revenue recognition, please refer to Notes 4 and 26 to the parent-only financial statements.

The main audit procedures that we have implemented include:

  1. Understand and test the effectiveness of the main internal control design and implementation related to the sales revenue of domestic and overseas warehouses and overseas shipping warehouses.

  2. Select samples randomly to check the receipts and payment status related to the sales revenue of domestic and overseas warehouses and overseas shipping warehouses, and inquire the existence of the transaction counterparties to verify the actual occurrence of the sales, and check whether there is any anomaly existing in the sales counterparties and the payment recipients.

  3. 101 -

Other Matters

The Company has also prepared the parent company’s only financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, for which we have issued an unqualified opinion.

Included in the aforementioned consolidated financial statements, some of the financial statements of the investees measured using the equity method have not been audited by us but by other CPAs. Therefore, in our opinions on the aforementioned consolidated financial statements, the above-mentioned investment balance of the investees using the equity method and the relevant share of profit and loss on the investees are recognized based on the audit report of other CPAs. As of December 31, 2020, the balance of investment in the aforementioned investees using the equity method was NT$122,583,000, accounting for 1.97% of the total consolidated assets, and the share of profit or loss on associates recognized using the equity method for the year ended December 31, 2020 was NT$1,165,000, accounting for 0.32% of the consolidated net income before tax.

Responsibilities of the management and the governing body for the consolidated financial statements

The responsibilities of the management are to prepare the consolidated financial statements with fair presentation in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRS and IAS, as well as IFRIC and SIC interpretations endorsed and entered into effect by the FSC, and to maintain necessary internal control associated with the preparation in order to ensure that the financial statements are free from material misstatement arising from fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing the ability of the Group in continuing as a going concern, disclosing relevant matters, and adopting the going concern basis of accounting unless the management intends to liquidate the Group or cease the operations without other viable alternatives. The governing body of the Group (including the Audit Committee) is responsible for supervising the financial reporting process.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement arising from fraud or error, and to issue an independent auditors' report. Reasonable assurance is a high-level 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. Misstatement may arise from frauds or errors. If the amounts of misstatements, either separately or in aggregate, could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of the users of the consolidated financial statements, they are considered material.

We have utilized our professional judgment and maintained professional doubt when performing the audit work in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. We also perform the following tasks:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement arising from fraud or error within the consolidated financial statements; design and execute countermeasures in response to said risks, and obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis of our opinion. Fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Therefore, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than the one resulting from error.

  2. Understand the internal control related to the audit in order to design appropriate audit procedures under the circumstances, while not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies adopted and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and relevant disclosures made by the management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of the management's adoption of the going concern basis of accounting based on the audit evidence obtained and whether a material uncertainty exists for events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we are of the opinion that a material uncertainty exists, we shall remind users of the consolidated financial statements to pay attention to relevant disclosures in said statements within our audit report. If such disclosures are inadequate, we need 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.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the consolidated financial statements (including relevant notes), and whether the consolidated financial statements adequately present the relevant transactions and events.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence concerning the financial information of entities within the Group, to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for guiding, supervising, and performing the audit and forming an audit opinion on the Group.

The matters communicated between us and the governing body include the planned scope and times of the audit and significant audit findings (including any significant deficiencies in internal control identified during the audit). We also provided the governing body with a declaration that we have complied with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China regarding independence, and communicated with them all relationships and other matters that may possibly be regarded as detrimental to our independence (including relevant protective measures).

  • 102 -

From the matters communicated with the governing body, we determined the key audit matters for the audit of the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. We have clearly indicated such matters in the auditors' report unless legal regulations prohibit the public disclosure of specific matters, or in extremely rare cases, we decided not to communicate over specific items in the auditors' report, for it could be reasonably anticipated that the negative effects of such disclosure would be greater than the public interest it brings forth.

TYNTEK Corporation and Its Subsidiaries Notes to consolidated financial statements For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)

I. Organization and operations

TYNTEK Corporation (hereinafter referred to as the "Company") was incorporated on April 4, 1987 in accordance with the Company Act of R.O.C. The main businesses are research and development, manufacturing, and sales of relevant products, including gallium arsenide, infrared, light-emitting diodes, laser diodes, phototransistors, photodiodes, single crystal and epitaxy, crystal grains, optoelectronic systems, radio transmitters, and other electrical devices that can generate radio radiant energy.

The Company’s shares had been listed for trading in Taipei Exchange (TEPx) since November 1998, and were approved by the Securities and Futures Commission, Ministry of Finance (currently known as the Securities and Futures Bureau, Financial Supervisory Commission) to be listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange for trading instead since September 2000.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are presented in the Company’s functional currency, the New Taiwan dollar.

II. The Authorization of Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements were approved by the board of directors and authorized for issue on March 25, 2021.

  • III. Application of New and Revised International Financial Reporting Standards (I) Initial application of the amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) (collectively, the “IFRSs”) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC)

Except for the following, the application of the amendments to the IFRSs endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC does not have material impact on the Group’s accounting policies:

  1. Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8 "Definition of Materiality"

The Group adopted the amendments on January 1, 2020. The threshold for materiality was amended to be "can be reasonably expected to influence users", and the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements were adjusted by removing immaterial information which may obscure material information.

  1. Amendment to IFRS 16 "COVID-19-Related Rent Concessions"

The Group has chosen to apply the practical expedient of the amendment to deal with rent negotiations directly related to the COVID-19 between it and the lessor. Please refer to Note 4 for the relevant accounting policies. Before applying the amendment, the Group shall judge whether the provisions of the lease modification should apply to the aforementioned rent negotiation. The Group began to apply the amendment on January 1, 2020. Since the aforementioned rent negotiation only affected the year of 2020, the retrospective application of the amendment did not affect the retained earnings as of January 1, 2020.

  • (II) IFRSs endorsed by FSC that are applicable from 2021 onwards

Effective Date Announced by New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations IASB Amended “Extension of the Temporary Exemption from Effective on the published date Applying IFRS 9” in IFRS 4 Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4, and IFRS 16 - Effective for the annual “Interest Rate Benchmark Reform - Phase 2” reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021

As of the publication date of the consolidated financial statements, the Group has assessed that the above-mentioned standards and amendments to the interpretations will not have a significant influence on the Group’s financial position and financial performance.

  • 110 -

  • (III) The IFRSs issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) but not yet endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC

Effective Date Issued by IASB New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations (Note 1) “Annual Improvement for the Cycle of 2018-2020” January 1, 2022 (Note 2) Amended “Updating the Index to the Conceptual Framework” January 1, 2022 (Note 3) in IFRS 3 Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution of To be determined Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture” IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” January 1, 2023 Amendments of IFRS 17 January 1, 2023 Amendments to IAS 1 “Classification of Liabilities as Current January 1, 2023 or Non-current” Amendments to IAS 1 "Disclosure of Accounting Policies” January 1, 2023 (Note 6) Amendments to IAS 8 "Definition of Accounting Estimates" January 1, 2023 (Note 7) Amendments to IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment - January 1, 2022 (Note 4) Proceeds before Intended Use” Amendments to IAS 37 “ Onerous Contracts - Cost of Fulfilling January 1, 2022 (Note 5) a Contract

  • Note 1: Unless stated otherwise, the above New IFRSs are effective for annual periods beginning on or after their respective effective dates.

  • Note 2: The amendment of IFRS 9 applies to the exchange of financial liabilities or modified terms incurring in the annual reported periods since January 1, 2022; the amendment of “Agriculture” in IAS 41 applies to the measurement at fair value in the annual reported periods since January 1, 2022; The amendment of “Initial application of IFRSs” in IFRS 1 applies the annual reported periods since January 1, 2022 retrospectively.

  • Note 3: The amendment applies to the merges whose acquisition dates after the annual reported periods since January 1, 2022.

  • Note 4: The amendment applies to the property, plant and equipment achieving the expected operations by the management after January 1, 2021.

  • Note 5: The amendment applies to the contracts yet performing all obligations as of January 1, 2022. Note 6: The amendments apply to the annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 prospectively.

  • Note 7: The amendments apply to changes in accounting estimates and changes in accounting policies that occur during the annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023.

As of the publication date of the consolidated financial statements, the Group is continuing to assess the impact of amendments to the aforementioned standards and interpretations on the Group’s financial position and financial performance, and will disclose relevant impacts when the assessment is completed.

IV. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

  • (I) Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and IFRSs as endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC.

  • (II) Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the financial instruments measured at fair value and the net defined liabilities recognized at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets.

The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, are described as follows:

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

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

  3. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

  4. (III) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities

  5. Current assets include:

  6. Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  7. Assets realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and

  8. 111 -

  9. Cash or cash equivalents (excluding assets restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date).

  10. Current liabilities include:

  11. Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  12. Liabilities realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and

  13. Liabilities with a repayment deadline that cannot be unconditionally deferred for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.

  14. Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.

  15. (IV) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company (subsidiaries). Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income from the effective dates of acquisition up to the effective dates of disposal. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Company. All intra-group transactions, balances, income, and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the interests of the Group and the non-controlling interests have been adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Company.

When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, the gains or losses on the disposal are the differences between the following two: (1) The sum of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of the remaining investment in the former subsidiary on the date of loss of control, and ( 2) the sum of the carrying amounts of the assets (including goodwill), liabilities, and non-controlling interests of the former subsidiary on the day of loss of control. All amounts recognized in other comprehensive income related to said subsidiary are accounted for on the same basis as the one adopted for the Group's direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities.

The remaining investment in the former subsidiary is adopted as the amount of financial assets initially recognized at FVTPL based on the fair value at the date of loss of control.

  • For details of subsidiaries, ownership percentage, and businesses, please refer to Note 13 and Table

  • (V) Foreign currencies

In preparing the financial statements of each entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (i.e. foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates.

At each balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing on that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. The resulting exchange difference is recognized in profit or loss. For items whose changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income, the resulting exchange difference is recognized in other comprehensive income. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates and are not retranslated. When preparing the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations (including subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures, or branches that operate in countries or adopt the functional currencies different from the Company) are translated into New Taiwan dollar. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting currency exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income (and attributable to the owners of the Company and non-controlling interests, respectively).

If the Group disposes of the ownership interest of a foreign operation, or disposes of part of the equity of a foreign operation’s subsidiary and loses control, or disposes of a foreign operation’s joint agreement or associate, and the retained equity is a financial asset and is treated based on the accounting policies adopted for financial instruments, then all accumulated exchange differences attributable to the owners of the Company and related to the foreign operation will be reclassified to profit or loss. If the partial disposal of a subsidiary of a foreign operation does not result in the loss of control, the accumulated exchange differences are attributable to the non-controlling interest of the subsidiary proportionally again but are not recognized in profit or loss. In the case of any other partial disposal of

  • 112 -

foreign operations, the accumulated exchange differences will be reclassified to profit or loss according to the proportion of the disposal.

  • (VI) Inventories

Inventories include merchandise, raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods. The value of inventories shall be determined based on the cost and net realizable value (NRV), whichever is lower. The comparison of the cost and NRV is based on individual items except for inventories of the same category. The NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average method.

  • (VII) Investments in Associates An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and is not a subsidiary nor a

  • joint venture.

The Group adopts the equity method to account for its investments in associates.

Under the equity method, investments in an associate are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate. The Company also recognizes the changes in its share of the equity of associates based on the percentage of ownership.

The amount of the acquisition cost in excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate that constitutes the business on the acquisition date is classified as goodwill, which is included in the book value of the investment and cannot be amortized. The amount of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate that constitutes the business on the acquisition date in excess of the amount of the acquisition cost is classified as profit or loss.

When an associate issues new shares, if the Group does not subscribe according to the ownership percentage, which causes the ownership percentage to change, and, thus, the net equity value of the investment increases or decreases, capital surplus - the changes in the net equity value of associates accounted for using the equity method and the investment accounted for using the equity method are adjusted for the increase or decrease. However, if the new shares is not subscribed to or acquired according to the ownership percentage, which results in a decrease in the ownership interests of the associate, the amount recognized in the other comprehensive income related to the associate is reclassified according to the percentage of the decrease, and the basis of the accounting treatment adopted is the same as the basis that the associate must follow in the case of direct disposal of relevant assets or liabilities. Where the adjustment in the preceding paragraph shall be debited to the capital surplus, and the balance of the capital surplus generated by the investment under the equity method is insufficient, the difference is debited to the retained earnings.

When the Group’s share of losses on an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate (including any carrying amount of the investment accounted for using the equity method and other longterm interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate), the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses and liabilities are recognized only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal obligations, or constructive obligations, or made payments on behalf of said associate.

The entire carrying amount of an investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized is not allocated to any asset, including goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized only to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

The Group ceases to adopt the equity method on the day when its investment ceases to be an associate, and its retained equity in the original associate is measured at fair value. The differences between the fair value, the proceeds from the disposal, and the carrying amount of the investment on the day when the equity method ceases to be adopted are recognized in profit or loss. In addition, all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income related to said associate are accounted for on the same basis as the one adopted for the associate's direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities. If an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture, or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the Group will continue to adopt the equity method without remeasuring the retained equity.

Profit or loss on upstream, downstream, and lateral transactions between the Group and its associates is recognized in the consolidated financial statements only to the extent that it does not affect the Group's interests in the associates.

(VIII) Property, plant, and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recognized at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.

  • 113 -

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over their useful lives. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The Group conducts at least one annual review at the end of each year to assess the estimated useful life, residual value, and depreciation methods, while applying the effect of changes in accounting estimates prospectively.

When derecognizing property, plant and equipment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in loss or profit.

  • (IX) Investment Property

Investment property refers to property held for the purpose of earning rent or capital appreciation or both (including the assets that meet the definition of investment property and the right-of-use assets). Investment property also includes land held, in which the future use has not yet been determined. Self-owned investment property is initially measured at cost (including transaction costs), and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. The investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis.

When investment property is derecognized, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

  • (X) Intangible asset

  • Acquired separately

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Intangible assets are amortized using straight-line method over the useful lives. The Group conducts at least one annual review at the end of each year to assess the estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization methods, while applying the effects of changes in accounting estimates prospectively. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are recognized at cost less accumulated impairment loss.

  1. Internally generated— research and development (R&D) expenditure Research expenditure is recognized in expenses when incurred.

  2. Derecognition When an intangible asset is derecognized, the difference between the net disposal proceeds

and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

  • (XI) Impairment of assets related to property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, intangible assets (excluding goodwill), and assets related to contract costs

The Group assesses if there are any signs of possible impairment in property, plant, and equipment as well as right-of-use and intangible assets (excluding goodwill) at each balance sheet date. If there is any sign of impairment, an estimate is made of its recoverable amount. If it is not possible to determine the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cashgenerating unit to which the asset belongs. Corporate assets are allocated to the smallest group of cashgenerating units on a reasonable and consistent basis.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually and whenever there is a sign that the assets may be impaired.

The recoverable amount is the fair value less cost of sales or its value in use, whichever is higher. If the recoverable amount of individual asset or the cash-generating unit is lower than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount, and the impairment loss is recognized in profit and loss.

The inventory, property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets related to customer contracts are first recognized as impairment in accordance with the inventory impairment regulations and the regulations above. Then, the carrying amount of the assets related to contract cost in excess of the expected amount of consideration received for the provision of the relevant goods or services less the direct relevant costs is recognized as an impairment loss. Subsequently, the carrying amount of the assets related to contract cost is included in the cash-generating unit to which they belong to perform impairment assessment of the cash-generating unit.

When the impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset, the cashgenerating unit, or the asset related to contract cost is increased to the revised recoverable amount, provided that the increased carrying amount shall not exceed the carrying amount (less amortization or depreciation) of the asset, cash-generating unit, or the asset related to contract cost which was not recognized as impairment loss in prior years. The reversal of the impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

  • (XII) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities shall be recognized in the consolidated balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Financial assets and financial liabilities not at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or

  • 114 -

financial liabilities. The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss is immediately recognized in profit or loss. 1. Financial asset Regular trading of financial assets shall be recognized and derecognized in accordance with trade date accounting.

  • (1) Measurement types

Financial assets held by the Group are those measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) and at amortized cost, as well as investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).

  • A. Disposal of financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets measured at FVTPL include those mandatorily measured at FVTPL and those designated as at FVTPL. Financial assets mandatorily measured at FVTPL include investments in equity instrument that the Group has not designated to measure at FVTOCI, and debt instruments that are not classified as measured at amortized cost or at FVTOCI.

Financial assets measured at FVTPL are measured at fair value, and the gains or losses arising from remeasurement (not including any dividends or interest generated by the financial asset) are recognized in other gains or losses. Please refer to Note 33 for the method of determining the fair value.

  • B. Financial assets at amortized cost

When the Group's investments in financial assets meet the following two conditions simultaneously, they are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost:

  • a. Held under a certain business model, of which the objective is to collect contractual cash flows by holding the financial assets; and

b. The cash flows on specific dates specified in the contractual terms are solely payments of the principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. After initial recognition, such assets (including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable measured at amortized cost, and time deposits with the original maturity date of more than 3 months) are measured at the amortized cost of the total carrying amount determined by the effective interest method less any impairment loss, and any foreign currency exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss. Except for the following two cases, interest revenue is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate by the total carrying amount of financial assets:

  • a. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset, interest revenue is calculated by multiplying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate by the amortized cost of the financial asset.

  • b. For financial asset that is not purchased or originated credit-impaired but subsequently becomes credit impaired, interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate from the next reporting period after the credit impairment by the amortized cost of the financial asset.

Credit-impaired financial assets refer to the fact that

when an issuer or debtor has experienced major financial difficulties or default, the debtor is likely to apply for bankruptcy or other financial restructuring,

or the active market for the financial assets disappears due to financial difficulties. Equivalent cash includes time deposits that are highly liquid, convertible into imprest cash at any time with little risk of value changes within 3 months from the date of acquisition, and is used to meet short-term cash commitments.

  • C. Investments in equity instruments measured at FVTOCI

The Group may, upon initial recognition, make an irrevocable election to designate as at FVTOCI the investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading and the ones that are not recognized by an acquirer in a business combination or with the contingent consideration.

Investments in an equity instrument measured at FVTOCI are measured at fair value, and any subsequent fair value changes are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. Upon disposal of investments, cumulative gain or loss is directly transferred to retained earnings and are not reclassified to profit or loss.

Dividends of investments in equity instruments measured at FVTOCI are recognized in profit or loss when the Group's right to receive dividends is established unless such dividends clearly represent the recovery of a part of the investment cost. (2) Impairment of financial assets

  • 115 -

The Group assesses the impairment loss of financial assets measured at amortized cost (including accounts receivable) based on the expected credit loss on each balance sheet date.

Accounts receivable are recognized in allowance loss based on the lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs). Other financial assets are first assessed based on whether the credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition. If there is no significant increase in the risk, a loss allowance is recognized at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs. If the risks have increased significantly, a loss allowance is recognized at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

The ECLs refer to the weighted average credit loss with the risk of default as the weight. The 12-month ECLs represent the ECLs from possible defaults of a financial instrument within 12 months after the reporting date. The lifetime ECLs represent the ECLs from all possible defaults in a financial instrument over the expected life of a financial instrument.

For the purpose of internal credit risk management, the Group, without considering the collateral held,

determines that the following situations represent defaults in the financial assets:

  • A. Internal or external information indicates that it is impossible for the debtor to settle the debt.

  • B. B. It is overdue for more than 90 days, unless there is reasonable and corroborative information showing that a default date postponed is more appropriate.

The Company recognizes an impairment loss for all financial assets with a corresponding downward adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account. However, the loss allowance for investment in debt instruments measured at FVTOCI is recognized in other comprehensive income without a downward adjustment to the carrying amount.

  • (3) Derecognition of financial assets

The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash inflow from the financial asset expire or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.

On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the consideration received is recognized in profit or loss. When the investment in debt instruments measured at FVTOCI is derecognized in its entirety, the difference between its carrying amount and the consideration received plus the sum of any accumulated gains or losses that have been recognized in other

comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss When derecognizing an investment in equity instrument at FVTOC in its entirety, the cumulative profit or loss is transferred directly to retained earnings and is not reclassified to profit or loss.

  1. Equity instrument

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified as either financial liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of financial liabilities and equity instruments.

Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognized at the proceeds received, net of the cost of direct issue.

The repurchase of the Group’s own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. The purchase, sale, issuance, or cancellation of the Group’s own equity instruments is not recognized in profit or loss.

  1. Financial liability (1) Subsequent measurement

All financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost in the effective interest method.

  • (2) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.

  • 116 -

(XIII) Provisions

The amount recognized in provision is based on the risk and uncertainty of the obligation, and is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date. The provisions are measured at the discounted value of the cash flow estimated to settle the obligation.

  • (XIV) Revenue recognition

  • After the Group identifies its performance obligations in contracts with customers, it allocates the

  • transaction costs to each obligation in the contracts and recognizes revenue upon completion of performance obligations.

If several contracts are signed with the same customer (or the customer's related party) almost at the same time, as the goods or services promised in these contracts are single performance obligations, the Group deals with the contracts separately.

  1. Sales revenue

  2. Sales revenue comes from the sales of products. As when a product reaches the transaction

  3. conditions signed with a customer, the customer already has the right to set the price and the way the product is used while bearing the main responsibility for resale and the risk of obsolescence, at which the Group recognizes such revenue and reclassifies it to accounts receivable after fulfilling the remaining obligations. Advance receipts from sales are recognized as contract liabilities before a product reaches the transaction conditions signed with a customer.

In the case of export of raw materials overseas for processing, the control of the ownership of the processed product has not been transferred, so the income is not recognized when said materials are exported.

  1. Electricity sales income

The electricity sold is recognized and based on the actual kWh and rate.

  1. Sales revenue of the power plant The sales revenue of the power plant is the revenue from the sales of solar power. The sales of the power plant are recognized as revenue when each customer obtains control over the asset promised, that is, when the power plant completes the contractual agreement and meets the performance obligation.

  2. (XV) Leasing

  3. At the inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.

    1. The Group as lessor Where almost all the risks and rewards attached to the ownership of an asset are transferred to
  4. the lessee in lease terms, such leases are classified as finance leases. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

  5. The Group as lessee

The Group recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of each lease, except for low value asset leases and short-term leases accounted for by applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.

A right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost (including the initial measured amount of lease liabilities, the amount of lease payments made to the lessor less lease incentives received prior to the inception of a lease, initial direct costs, and the estimated costs of restoring underlying assets), and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets.

A right-of-use asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the period from the lease commencement date to the end of its useful life, or to the end of the lease term, whichever is earlier. Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of lease payments. If the interest rate implicit in a lease can be easily determined, the lease payment is discounted at such an interest rate. If the interest rate cannot be easily determined, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate applies.

Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at the amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, and interest expense is amortized over the lease term. If changes in the lease term, the expected payment under the residual value guarantee, the evaluation of the underlying asset purchase options, or the index or rate used to determine the lease payment over the lease term lead to changes in future lease payments, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use assets. However, if the carrying amount of the rightof-use assets has been reduced to zero, the remaining remeasurement amount is recognized in profit or loss. For lease modifications that are not treated as a separate lease, remeasurement of the lease liabilities due to the reduced scope of the lease is to reduce the right-of-use assets, and to recognize the profit or loss of the partial or full termination of the lease; the remeasurement of the

  • 117 -

lease liabilities due to other modifications is to adjust the right-of-use assets. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Group and the lessor engaged in rent negotiations directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and adjusted the rents due before June 30, 2021, resulting in a decrease in the rents before the negotiation. These negotiations did not materially change other lease terms. The Group has elected to adopt practical expedients to treat rent negotiations that meet the aforementioned conditions without evaluating whether the negotiation is about a lease modification, and

recognizes the reduction in lease payments in profit or loss, and makes a corresponding downward adjustment to the lease liabilities.

  • (XVI) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to an acquisition, construction, or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of said assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

For specific borrowings, if the investment income earned by making a temporary investment before the capital expenditure that meets the requirements is incurred, it is deducted from the borrowing costs that meet the capitalization conditions.

Other than that which is stated above, all other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

(XVII) Government grants

Government grants are not recognized until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attached to them and that the grants will be received.

Government grants related to income are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods, in which the Group recognizes as expenses the relevant costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Government grants whose primary condition is that the Group should purchase, construct, or otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognized as deferred income and reclassified to profit or loss during the useful life of said assets on a reasonable and systematic basis. Government grants whose primary condition is that the Group should purchase, construct, or otherwise acquire non-current assets are debited to the carrying amount of said assets and recognized in profit or loss over the useful lives of said assets by reducing the depreciation or amortization expenses of said assets.

If government grants are used to compensate expenses or losses incurred, or are given to the Group for the purpose of immediate financial support without relevant future costs, they can be recognized in profit or loss in the period, during which the Group can receive said grants.

(XVIII) Employee benefits

  1. Short-term employee benefits

Relevant liabilities for short-term employee benefits are measured by the non-discounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for employee services.

  1. Post-employment benefits

For pension under the defined contribution plan, the amount of pension contributed is recognized as expenses during employees' service period.

The defined benefit cost under the defined benefit pension plan (including service cost, net interest, and remeasurement ) is calculated based on the projected unit credit method. The service cost (including the service cost for the current period) and the net interest of net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are recognized as employee benefit expenses as they occur. The remeasurement (including actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, net of interest) is recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in retained earnings when it occurs, and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.

The net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are the deficit (surplus) of the defined benefit pension plan. The net defined benefit assets may not exceed the present value of any refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan.

  1. Other long-term employee benefits

The accounting treatment of other long-term employee benefits is the same as that of the defined benefit pension plan, but the relevant remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. (XIX) Share-based payment arrangement Share-based payment arrangement for granting shares to employees and employee stock options The share-based payment arrangement for equity delivery and employee stock options are based on the fair value of the equity instrument on the grant date and the best estimated number expected to be vested, and is recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis during the vesting period, while the capital surplus - employee share options is adjusted at the same time. If it is immediately vested on the grant date, the full amount of the shares shall be recognized in expenses on the grant date. The Company transfers treasury shares to employees, so the record date for the transfer is the grant date.

The Group revises the estimated number of expected vested employee share options at each balance sheet date. If there is a revision to the original estimated number, the effect is recognized as profit or loss,

  • 118 -

so that the accumulated expenses will reflect the revised estimate, and the capital surplus - employee share options is adjusted accordingly.

  • (XX)

Income tax

  • The income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

    1. Tax currently payable

The Group determines the income (loss) of the current year in accordance with the laws and regulations in each jurisdiction area for income tax filings, and calculates the income tax payable (recoverable) accordingly.

A surtax imposed on the undistributed earnings pursuant to the Income Tax Act of R.O.C. is recognized via a resolution at the annual shareholders' meeting.

  • Adjustments to income tax payable from prior years are recognized in the current income tax.

    1. Deferred tax

Deferred income tax is calculated based on the temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable income.

Deferred income tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized when there are likely to be taxable income to deduct temporary differences, loss carryforwards, equipment purchase, research and development, as well as talent training expenditure.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that said temporary difference will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. The deductible temporary differences related to said investments are recognized as deferred income tax only if it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income to realize the temporary differences, and they are expected to be reversed in the foreseeable future. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at each balance sheet date, and its carrying amount will be increased as it has become probable that future taxable income will allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates in the period in which the liabilities are expected to be settled or assets realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the balance sheet date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

  1. Current and deferred income tax

Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity; in which case, the current and deferred taxes are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

  • V. Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation and Uncertainty

In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, the management is required to make judgments, estimations, and assumptions about the relevant information that is not readily accessible from other sources based on historical experience and other relevant factors. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The Group takes into account the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in its critical accounting estimates, and the management will constantly review the estimates and basic assumptions. If an amendment to estimates only affects the current period, it shall be recognized in the period of said amendment; if an amendment to accounting estimates affects the current year and future periods, it shall be recognized in the period of said amendment and future periods. Key Sources of Estimation and Assumption Uncertainty

  • (I) Inventory impairment

The NRV of inventories is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. These estimates are based on current market conditions and historical and historical sales experience in similar products. Changes in market conditions may materially affect the results of these estimates.

Note: Because the public company Unity Opto Technology co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Unity Opto) failed to publish its financial statements for 2019 within the specified time limit, it was sanctioned by the Taiwan Stock Exchange on April 1, 2020, and it stock was stopped to be traded starting from April 7, 2020. After prudent evaluation, the Group recognized all shares of Unity Opto held as financial asset valuation losses on March 31, 2020.

The Group has invested in the common stocks of the above-mentioned companies in accordance with medium and long-term strategic purposes, and expects to make profits through long-term investments. The management of the Group believes that if the short-term fair value fluctuations of these investments are recognized in profit or loss, it is inconsistent with the aforementioned long-term investment plan, so it has elected to designate these investments as at FVTOCI.

(I) Notes and accounts receivable

The average credit period for customers is open account with net 30 to 180 days. In addition to the loss allowance for individual customers’ actual credit impairment loss, the Group refers to historical experience, considers individual customers’ financial status, industries, competitive advantages, and prospects, and divides them into different risk groups and recognizes loss allowances for each group based on their expected loss rates. In addition, a 100% loss allowance is recognized for accounts receivable with an account opened for over 365 days and no other credit guarantee provided.

In order to reduce credit risk, the management of the Group is responsible for the determination of credit limit, credit approval, and other monitoring procedures to ensure that appropriate actions have been taken in the recovery of overdue receivables. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of the receivables one by one at the balance sheet date to ensure that the appropriate impairment loss is recognized for uncollectible receivables. In this regard, the management of the Group believes the Group’s credit risk was significantly reduced.

The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables.

If there is evidence that the counterparty is facing serious financial difficulties and the Group cannot reasonably expect to recover the amount, e.g., the counterparty is in liquidation, the Group directly writes off the relevant accounts receivable, but will continue to try to collect the receivable. The recovered amount is recognized in profit or loss.

  • Note: The Group originally held the shares of Tynsolar Corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Tynsolar"). On February 27, 2020, Tynsolar’s board of directors passed a resolution to suspend the trading of stocks on Taipei Exchange, and established Hsinjing by means of share swap. The Group received Hsinjing’s shares swapped from Tynsolar’s on March 2, 2020, with the ownership percentage remaining unchanged.

  • (I) Material associates

The Group's percentages of ownership interests and voting rights in associates at the balance sheet date are as follows:

date are as follows:
Company name
Hsinjing (formerly known as
Tynsolar)
Percentage of ownership and voting rights
Dec. 31, 2020
22.79%
Dec. 31, 2019
26.95%

The Group had substantive control over Hsinjing before June 20, 2019, and was classified as a subsidiary; it later judged that the Group had no substantive ability to dominate relevant activities of Hsinjing’s board of directors and management regarding important decisions since June 20, 2019. As a result, the Group lost control, and from the date of loss of control (regarded as the date of disposal), it ceased to include Hsinjing in the consolidated statements, and the fair value of its remaining investment was reclassified to the cost of investment in the associates. See Note 30 for details.

The Group continued to dispose of Hsinjing’s shares in 2020, resulting in a decrease in the ownership to 22.79%, but it still had a significant influence over the company.

The Group’s investment in Hsinjing using the equity method and its share of profit and loss and other comprehensive income of Hsinjing were recognized based on financial statements audited by other CPAs in 2020; and in 2019 they were calculated based on financial statements audited by CPAs. The information on Level 1 fair value of associate with open market quotes is as follows:

Company name Dec. 31, 2020 Dec. 31, 2019 Hsinjing $ 782,050 $ 201,585 (II) Aggregate information on associates that are not individually material 2020 2019

The Group’s share of Net income (loss) of the

continuing operations ( $ 13,800 ) ( $ 968 ) Refer to Table 4 in Note 38. “Information on Investees” for the nature of business, principal places of business, and countries of incorporation of the associates above.

The Group adopts the equity method to measure the above-mentioned associates that are not individually material, and its share of profits and losses and other comprehensive income is calculated based on financial statements that have not been audited by CPAs. However, the management of the Group believes that the financial statements of the aforementioned subsidiaries will not have a material impact if audited by CPAs.

Investment property includes land and buildings, of which buildings are depreciated on a straightline basis based on 55 years of useful life.

Due to the infrequent transactions in the comparable market and the inability to obtain reliable alternative fair value estimates for the Company’s investment property, the fair value cannot be determined reliably.

All the Company’s investment property is self-owned equity.

(I) The provision for warranty liabilities is the present value of the best estimate of the future outflow of economic benefits caused by warranty obligations by the management of the Group as agreed in the sales contract. This estimate is based on historical warranty experience.

(II) Provision for employee benefits liability is the estimate of employee long-term service bonuses.

XXIV. Post-employment benefit plans

  • (I) Defined contribution plans

The Company and domestic subsidiaries in the Group adopted a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (LPA), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, the Company makes monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.

The employees of the Group's subsidiary in mainland China are members of the retirement benefit plan managed by the mainland China government. The subsidiary must contribute a specific proportion of the salary cost to the retirement benefit plan to provide funding for the plan. The Group’s obligation for this government-managed retirement benefit plan is only to contribute a specific amount. (II) Defined benefit plan

The defined benefit plan adopted by the Group in accordance with the Labor Standards Act is the defined benefit plan under the management of the government of R.O.C. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the 6 months before retirement. The Group contributes an amount, which equals to 2% of each employee’ total monthly salary and wage, which is deposited by the Pension Fund Monitoring Committee in the pension account with the Bank of Taiwan in the name of the committee. Before the end of each year, if the balance in the pension account assessed is inadequate to pay for the retirement benefits for employees who meet the retirement requirements in the following year, the Company will contributes an amount to make up for the difference in a lump sum by the end of March of the following year. The pension account is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor; the Group has no right to influence the investment management strategy.

The amounts included in the consolidated balance sheets in respect of the Company’s defined benefit plan are as follows:

Due to the pension plans under the Labor Standards Act, the Group is exposed to the following risks:

  1. Investment risk: The Bureau invests labor pension funds in domestic (foreign) equity securities, debt securities, and bank deposits on its own use and through agencies entrusted. However, the Group’s amount allocated to plan assets is calculated based on the interest rate not lower than the local bank's interest rate for 2-year time deposits.

  2. Interest risk: A decrease in the interest rate in the government bonds will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, the return on the debt investment through the plan

  3. 132 -

assets will also increase, and the increases will partially offset the effect of the net defined benefit liability.

  1. Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated with reference to the future salaries of the participants in the plan. As such, an increase in the salary of the participants in the plan will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by

qualified actuaries. The critical assumptions made on the measurement date are as follows:

Dec. 31, 2020 Dec. 31, 2019
Discount rate 0.36% 0.74%
Salary adjustment rate 2.50% 2.50%
If each of the critical actuarial assumptions is subject to reasonably possible changes, when all other
assumptions remain unchanged, the amounts by which the present value of the defined benefit obligation
would increase (decrease) are as follows:
would increase (decrease) are as follows:
Dec. 31, 2020 Dec. 31, 2019
Discount rate
0.25% increase ($ 2,022) ($ 3,725)
0.25% decrease $ 2,022 $ 3,912
Salary adjustment rate
0.5% increase $ 3,943 $ 3,725
0.5% decrease ($ 3,741) ($ 3,539)
As actuarial assumptions may be correlated, it is unlikely that only a single assumption would occur
in isolation of one another, so the sensitivity analysis above may not reflect the actual changes in the
present value of the defined benefit obligation.

This type of capital surplus is the effect of equity transactions recognized due to changes in the Company’s equity or the adjustment to the capital surplus of the subsidiary accounted for using the equity method by the Company when the Company has not actually acquired or disposed of the equity of the subsidiary.

(III) Retained earnings and dividends policy

The Company’s shareholders’ meeting passed a resolution on June 24, 2019, to amend the Articles of Incorporation. According to the Company’s amended Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s earnings distribution policy stipulates that the Company's earnings distribution or loss compensation shall be proposed by the board of directors after the end of each semi-annual fiscal period. In the case of issue of new shares, it shall be submitted to the shareholders’ meeting for a resolution. Any cash distribution of dividend, profit, legal reserve or capital reserve, whether in whole or in part, must be resolved in a board meeting with more than two-thirds of the board present, voted in favor by more than half of attending directors, and reported in the upcoming shareholder meeting.

According to the earnings distribution policy of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, if there is a net income after tax at the end of the year, the Company shall pay all taxes in accordance with the law and compensate accumulated losses first, and then allocate 10% as a statutory reserve in accordance with the law unless the statutory reserve has reached the same amount of the Company paid-in capital. Where there are any earnings left, the Company allocates or reverses the special reserve according to laws or regulations or regulations of the competent authority. If there are any earnings remaining, together with the undistributed earnings at the beginning of the same period (including adjustments to the amount of undistributed earnings), the board of directors shall draft an earnings distribution proposal and submit it to the shareholders’ meeting to resolve the distribution of shareholders’ dividends. For information on the policy of the employee compensation and remuneration of directors and supervisors as in the Company's Articles of Incorporation, refer to Note 27 (9) regarding employee compensation and remuneration of directors.

In addition according to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the Company adopts a dividend policy that allows the board of directors to propose dividends after taking into consideration its future capital requirements, long-term financial plans, and shareholders' needs for cash inflow. Profit sharing to shareholders can be paid in cash or shares, provided that the cash portion does not amount to less than 10% of total profit sharing.

Appropriation of earnings to legal reserve shall be made until the reserve equals the Company’s paid-in capital. Legal reserves may be used to offset the deficit. If the Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.

The Company set aside and reversed a special reserve in accordance with the FSC Letters Jin-GuanZheng-Fa No. 1010012865, Jin-Guan-Zheng-Fa No. 1010047490, and Jin-Guan-Zheng-Fa No.

If the Company can settle the compensation to employees in cash or shares, the Company assumes the entire amount of the compensation would be settled in shares and the resulting potential shares are included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share if the effect is dilutive. Such a dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the shareholders resolve the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year.

XXXII. Capital risk management

In accordance with the overall business environment and the Group’s future development, the Group’s capital structure is regularly reviewed by the main management personnel in consideration of external competition, changes in the environment, and other factors. The review includes consideration for various types of capital costs and relevant risks to determine an appropriate capital structure of the Group. The purpose is to satisfy the Group’s requirements for working capital, research and development expenses, and dividend expenditures in the future, while ensuring that the Group can continue to operate, give back to shareholders, and take into account the interests of other stakeholders, and maintaining the best capital structure to enhance shareholders’ value on a long term.

The capital structure of the Group consists of net debt (borrowings less cash and cash equivalents) and equity attributable to owners of the Company (comprising share capital, capital surplus, retained earnings, and other equity items), as well as non-controlling interests.

The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

Key management personnel of the Group reviews the capital structure annually. As part of this review, the key management personnel considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. Under the suggestions of the key management personnel, the Group may pay dividends, issue new shares, buy back shares, and issue new debts or repay old debts to balance the overall capital structure.

XXXI. Financial instruments

  1. Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 3 fair value measurement

The fair value of domestic stocks traded on emerging stock markets is estimated based on the closing prices of the stocks in the emerging stock markets and the liquidity. Investments in domestic and foreign unlisted equity are estimated by the market approach based on the transaction price of comparable targets, and the difference between the evaluation target and the comparable target is considered to estimate the value of the target evaluated using an appropriate multiplier.

  • (IV) Financial risk management objective and policies

The Group's main financial instruments include equity investment, accounts receivable, accounts payable, borrowings, and lease liabilities. The Group's financial management department provides services to various business units, coordinates the operations in the domestic and international financial markets, and supervises and manages the financial risks related to the Group's operations by analyzing internal risk reports based on the degree and breadth of risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk, and other price risks), credit risk, and liquidity risk.

The Group uses derivative financial instruments to avoid risk exposure to mitigate the impact of these risks. The use of derivative financial instruments is regulated by the policies adopted by the Group's board of directors, which are written principles for exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and the investment of remaining working capital. Compliance with policies and exposure limits is being reviewed by the

  • 145 -

internal auditors continuously. The Group does not trade financial instruments (including derivative financial instruments) for speculative purposes.

  1. Market risk

The main financial risks for the Group’s operating activities are the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (1) below) and the risk of changes in interest rates (see (2) below). The Group engages in various derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk.

The Group's exposure to the market risk of financial instruments and its management and measurement methods for the risk exposure have remained unchanged.

  • (1) Exchange rate risk

The Group is engaged in sale and purchase transactions denominated in foreign currencies, which has caused the Group to be exposed to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. Approximately 78.13% of the Group's sales are not denominated in the functional currency, and approximately 61.22% of the cost is not denominated in the functional currency. The Group's management of the exposure to the exchange rate risk is to use foreign currency options to manage risks within the scope permitted by the policy. The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities (including those eliminated on consolidation) at the balance sheet date are set out in Note 37.

Sensitivity analysis

The Group was mainly affected by the fluctuations in the exchange rates of USD, JPY, and CNY.

The following table details the Group’s sensitivity analysis when the New Taiwan dollar (functional currency) increases and decreases by 1% against each relevant foreign currency. The sensitivity to a 1% change in New Taiwan dollars is used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis only included monetary items in foreign currencies in circulation, and the year-end translation was adjusted with a 1% change in the exchange rates. The positive numbers in the table below indicate the amount by which the net income before tax will be reduced when the New Taiwan dollar appreciates by 1% against the relevant currencies; when the New Taiwan dollar depreciates by 1% against the relevant foreign currencies, the net income before tax will be the negative number of the same amount.

  • (i) Mainly derived from the Group's USD-denominated receivables and payables still outstanding at the balance sheet date, against which a cash flow hedge has not been conducted.

  • (ii) Mainly derived from the Group's JPY-denominated payables still outstanding at the balance sheet date, against which a cash flow hedge has not been conducted.

  • (iii) Mainly derived from the Group's CNY-denominated receivables and payables still outstanding at the balance sheet date, against which a cash flow hedge has not been conducted.

Sales denominated in USD are seasonal, so the exposure to the foreign currency risk at the balance sheet date cannot reflect the risk exposure throughout the year.

(2) Interest rate risk Because individual entities within the Group borrow funds at fixed and floating interest rates at the same time, the exposure to the interest rate risk arises. The Group manages the interest rate risk by maintaining an appropriate combination of fixed and floating interest rates.

The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to the interest rate risk at the balance sheet date are as follows:

Fair value interest rate risk
-Financial assets
-Financial liabilities
Cash flow interest rate risk
-Financial assets
-Financial liabilities

The sensitivity analysis below is determined based on the exposure to the interest rate risk of derivative and non-derivative instruments at the balance sheet date. For liabilities with floating interest rates, the analysis method is based on the assumption that the amount of liabilities outstanding at the balance sheet date is in outstanding throughout the reporting period. The sensitivity to a 1% change in interest rate is used when reporting the interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and also represents the management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

If the interest rate increased/decreased by 1% and all other variables remain unchanged, the Group’s net income before tax for 2020 and 2019 would have decreased/increased by NT$192,000 and NT$253,000, respectively.

  • (3) Other price risk

The Group's exposure to the equity price risk is due to the investment in the listed equity securities. The management of the Group manages the risk by holding investment portfolios with different risk factors. The Group's equity price risk is mainly concentrated on Taiwan Stock Exchange’s equity instruments in specific industries. Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis below is based on the equity price risk exposure at the balance sheet date.

If the equity price increased/decreased by 1%, the profit or loss before tax for 2020 and 2019 would have increased/decreased by NT$5,227,000 and NT$5,296,000 due to the increase/decrease in the fair value of financial assets at FVTPL. Other comprehensive income before tax for 2020 and 2019 would have increased/decreased by NT$206,000 and NT$218,000 due to the increase/decrease in the fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI. The Group's sensitivity to the price risk decreased in 2020 because of the decrease in investment in equity securities held.

  1. Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. At the balance sheet date, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Group due to failure of counterparties to perform an obligation and financial guarantees provided by the Company could arise from:

  • (1) The carrying amount of the financial assets recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. (2) The amount of contingent liabilities arising from the financial guarantee provided by the Group.

The policy adopted by the Group is to conduct transactions only with reputable counterparties, and obtain sufficient guarantees under necessary circumstances to reduce the risk of financial losses due to defaults. The Group only conducts transactions with companies whose ratings are equal to or higher than the investment grade Such information is provided by independent rating agencies; if such information is not available, the Group will refer to other publicly available financial information and mutual transaction records to rate its major customers. The Group continuously monitors credit risk and the credit rating of its counterparties, and distributes the total transaction amount to customers with qualified credit ratings, and controls the exposure to credit risk through the counterparty credit limits that are reviewed and approved by the financial management department every year.

In order to mitigate the credit risk, the management of the Group assigns a dedicated team responsible for the determination of credit limits, credit approval, and other monitoring procedures to ensure that appropriate actions have been taken in the recovery of overdue receivables. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of the receivables one by one at the balance sheet date to ensure that the appropriate impairment loss is recognized for uncollectible receivables. In this regard, the management of the Group believes the Group’s credit risk was significantly reduced.

The credit risk on liquid funds and derivatives is not high because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.

The Group's customer base is large and unrelated, so the concentration of credit risk is not high.

  1. Liquidity risk

The Group manages and maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents to support its operations and mitigate the impact of cash flow fluctuations. The management of the Group monitors the use of the bank financing facilities and ensures compliance with the terms of the borrowing terms.

  • 147 -

Bank borrowings were an important source of liquidity for the Group. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, for the Group’s unutilized credit facilities, please refer to (2) below for description of financing facilities.

  • (1) Liquidity and interest rate risk tables for non-derivative financial liabilities

The remaining contractual maturity analysis of non-derivative financial liabilities was based on the earliest date at which the Group might be required to repay and was compiled based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities (including principal and estimated interest). Therefore, the bank borrowings with a repayment on demand clause were included in the earliest time period, regardless of the probability of exercise of the right by banks. The maturity analysis of other non-derivative financial liabilities was compiled in accordance with the agreed repayment date.

V. Latest audited standalone financial statements

Independent Auditors’ Review Report

To TYNTEK Corporation,

Audit opinion

We have reviewed the standalone balance sheet of TYNTEK Corporation (the “Company”) for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the related standalone statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and relevant notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies “(collectively referred to as the standalone financial statements)”.

In our opinion, the accompanying standalone financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and for the years then ended, and its individual financial performance and its individual cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for audit opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China for 2020. Our responsibility under those standards is further described in the section of "Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent-only Financial Statements". We are independent of the Company 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 are convinced that we have acquired enough and appropriate audit evidence to serve as the basis of audit opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters refer to the most vital matters in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 20 2020 based on our professional judgment. These matters were addressed in our audit of the parent-only financial statements as a whole, and in forming our audit opinion. We do not express a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matters of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 are stated as follows

Revenue recognition

Due to some sales customers’ needs, the Company places inventory in the domestic and overseas warehouses or overseas shipping warehouses designated by the sales customers. The recognition of sales revenue is based on the receipt details provided by the customers’ designated warehouse custodians, which were checked by the dedicated personnel of the Company. As domestic and overseas warehouses and overseas shipping warehouses are not directly managed by the Company, we listed the authenticity of the sales related to the domestic and overseas warehouses and overseas shipping warehouses a key audit matter for this year. For the accounting policies and information disclosed related to revenue recognition, please refer to Notes 4 and 25 to the parent-only financial statements.

The main audit procedures that we have implemented include:

  • 160 -

  • Understand and test the effectiveness of the main internal control design and implementation related to the sales revenue of domestic and overseas warehouses and overseas shipping warehouses.

  • Select samples randomly to check the receipts and payment status related to the sales revenue of domestic and overseas warehouses and overseas shipping warehouses, and inquire the existence of the transaction counterparties to verify the actual occurrence of the sales, and check whether there is any anomaly existing in the sales counterparties and the payment recipients.

Responsibilities of the management and the governing body for the parent-only financial statements

The responsibilities of the management are to prepare the parent-only financial statements with fair presentation in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and to maintain necessary internal control associated with the preparation in order to ensure that the financial statements are free from material misstatement arising from fraud or error.

In preparing the standalone financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing the ability of the Company in continuing as a going concern, disclosing relevant matters, and adopting the going concern basis of accounting unless the management intends to liquidate the Company or cease the operations without other viable alternatives.

The governing body of the Company (including the Audit Committee) is responsible for supervising the financial reporting process.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the parent-only financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the parent-only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement arising from fraud or error, and to issue an independent auditors' report. Reasonable assurance is a high-level 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. Misstatement may arise from frauds or errors. If the amounts of misstatements, either separately or in aggregate, could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of the users of the parent-only financial statements, they are considered material.

We have utilized our professional judgment and maintained professional doubt when performing the audit work in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. We also perform the following tasks:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement arising from fraud or error within the parent-only financial statements; design and execute countermeasures in response to said risks, and obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis of our opinion. Fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Therefore, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than the one resulting from error.

  2. Understand the internal control related to the audit in order to design appropriate audit procedures under the circumstances, while not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies adopted and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and relevant disclosures made by the management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of the management's adoption of the going concern basis of accounting based on the audit evidence obtained and whether a material uncertainty exists for events or conditions that may cast

  5. 161 -

significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we are of the opinion that a material uncertainty exists, we shall remind users of the parent-only financial statements to pay attention to relevant disclosures in said statements within our audit report. If such disclosures are inadequate, we need 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 Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  1. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the parent-only financial statements (including relevant notes), and whether the parent-only financial statements adequately present the relevant transactions and events.

  2. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence concerning the financial information of entities within the Company, to express an opinion on the standalone financial statements. We are responsible for guiding, supervising, and performing the audit and forming an audit opinion on the Company.

The matters communicated between us and the governing body include the planned scope and times of the audit and significant audit findings (including any significant deficiencies in internal control identified during the audit).

We also provided the governing body with a declaration that we have complied with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China regarding independence, and communicated with them all relationships and other matters that may possibly be regarded as detrimental to our independence (including relevant protective measures).

From the matters communicated with the governing body, we determined the key audit matters for the audit of the Company's standalone financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. We have clearly indicated such matters in the auditors' report unless legal regulations prohibit the public disclosure of specific matters, or in extremely rare cases, we decided not to communicate over specific items in the auditors' report, for it could be reasonably anticipated that the negative effects of such disclosure would be greater than the public interest it brings forth.

(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)

I. Organization and operations

  • IV. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (I) Statement of compliance

    • The standalone financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations

    • Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

  • (II) Basis of preparation

The standalone financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the financial instruments measured at fair value and the net defined liabilities recognized at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets.

The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, are described as follows:

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

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

  3. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. When preparing the standalone financial statements, the Company adopted the equity method to

account for its investments in subsidiaries and associates. In order to enable the amounts of the profit or loss for the year and other comprehensive income and equity for the year in the standalone financial statements to be the same as the ones attributable to the owners of the Company in its consolidated financial statements, regarding the differences arising from accounting treatments between the parent

  • 170 -

company only basis and the consolidation basis, adjustments were made to the investments accounted for using the equity method, the share of profit or loss of subsidiaries, associates, and joint ventures using the equity method, the share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries and associates using the equity method, as well as relevant equity items, as appropriate, in the standalone financial statements.

  • (III) Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities

  • Current assets include:

  • Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • Assets realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and

  • Cash or cash equivalents (excluding assets restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date).

  • Current liabilities include:

  • Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • Liabilities realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and

  • Liabilities with a repayment deadline that cannot be unconditionally deferred for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.

  • Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.

  • (IV) Foreign currencies In preparing the Company’s financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the

  • Company’s functional currency (i.e. foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates.

At each balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing on that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. The resulting exchange difference is recognized in profit or loss. For items whose changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income, the resulting exchange difference is recognized in other comprehensive income. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates and are not retranslated. When preparing the standalone financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations (including subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures, or branches that operate in countries or adopt the functional currencies different from the Company) are translated into New Taiwan dollar. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting currency exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

If the Company disposes of the ownership interest of a foreign operation, or disposes of part of the equity of a foreign operation’s subsidiary and loses control, or disposes of a foreign operation’s joint agreement or associate, and the retained equity is a financial asset and is treated based on the accounting policies adopted for financial instruments, then all accumulated exchange differences related to the foreign operation will be reclassified to profit or loss.

If the partial disposal of a subsidiary of a foreign operation does not result in the loss of control, the accumulated exchange differences are included in the calculation of the equity transaction proportionally but are not recognized in profit or loss. In the case of any other partial disposal of foreign operations, the accumulated exchange differences will be reclassified to profit or loss according to the proportion of the disposal.

(V) Inventories Inventories include merchandise, raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods. The value of inventories shall be determined based on the cost and net realizable value (NRV), whichever is lower. The comparison of the cost and NRV is based on individual items except for inventories of the same category. The NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average method.

  • (VI) Investment in subsidiaries

The Company adopts the equity method to account for its investments in subsidiaries. A subsidiary is an entity (including structured entity) that is controlled by the Company. Under the equity method, investments are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of its subsidiaries. In addition, changes in the Company's other equity interest of its subsidiaries are recognized based on its ownership percentage.

Changes in the Company’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Company losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the carrying amount of an investment and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.

  • 171 -

When the Company’s share of losses of a subsidiary exceeds its equity in said subsidiary (which includes any carrying amount of the investment accounted for by the equity method and long-term equity that, in substance, forms part of the Company’s net investment in said subsidiary), the Company continues recognizing its share of further losses.

The amount of the acquisition cost in excess of the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary that constitutes the business on the acquisition date is classified as goodwill, which is included in the book value of the investment and cannot be amortized. The amount of the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary that constitutes the business on the acquisition date in excess of the amount of the acquisition cost is classified as current income.

When the Company assesses the impairment, it considers the cash-generating unit as a whole in the financial statements and compares its recoverable amount with the carrying amount. If the recoverable amount of an asset increases subsequently, the reversal of the impairment loss shall be recognized in gains, but the carrying amount of the asset after the reversal of the impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount of the asset less amortization without impairment loss recognized. The impairment loss attributable to goodwill shall not be reversed in subsequent periods.

When the Company loses control over a subsidiary, it measures its remaining investment in said subsidiary based on the fair value on the day when the control is lost. The fair value of the remaining investment and the difference between any disposal price and the carrying amount of the investment on the day when the control is lost are recognized in profit or loss for the period. In addition, all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income related to said subsidiary are accounted for on the same basis as the one adopted for the Company's direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities.

The unrealized profit or loss on downstream transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated in the standalone financial statements. Profit or loss on downstream and lateral transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries is recognized in the standalone financial statements only to the extent that it does not affect the Company's interests in the subsidiaries.

(VII)

Investments in Associates

An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence and is not a subsidiary nor a joint venture.

The Company adopts the equity method to account for its investments in associates.

Under the equity method, investments in an associate are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate. The Company also recognizes the changes in its share of the equity of associates based on the percentage of ownership.

The amount of the acquisition cost in excess of the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate that constitutes the business on the acquisition date is classified as goodwill, which is included in the book value of the investment and cannot be amortized. The amount of the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate that constitutes the business on the acquisition date in excess of the amount of the acquisition cost is classified as profit or loss.

When an associate issues new shares, if the Company does not subscribe according to the ownership percentage, which causes the ownership percentage to change, and, thus, the net equity value of the investment increases or decreases, capital surplus - the changes in the net equity value of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method and the investment accounted for using the equity method are adjusted for the increase or decrease. However, if the new shares is not subscribed to or acquired according to the ownership percentage, which results in a decrease in the ownership interests of the associate, the amount recognized in the other comprehensive income related to the associate is reclassified according to the percentage of the decrease, and the basis of the accounting treatment adopted is the same as the basis that the associate must follow in the case of direct disposal of relevant assets or liabilities. Where the adjustment in the preceding paragraph shall be debited to the capital surplus, and the balance of the capital surplus generated by the investment under the equity method is insufficient, the difference is debited to the retained earnings.

When the Company’s share of losses on an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate (including any carrying amount of the investment accounted for using the equity method and other longterm interests that, in substance, form part of the Company’s net investment in the associate), the Company discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses and liabilities are recognized only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal obligations, or constructive obligations, or made payments on behalf of said associate.

The entire carrying amount of an investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized is not allocated to any asset, including goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of the investment.

  • 172 -

Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized only to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

The Company ceases to adopt the equity method on the day when its investment ceases to be an associate, and its retained equity in the original associate is measured at fair value. The differences between the fair value, the proceeds from the disposal, and the carrying amount of the investment on the day when the equity method ceases to be adopted are recognized in profit or loss. In addition, all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income related to said associate are accounted for on the same basis as the one adopted for the associate's direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities. If an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture, or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the Company will continue to adopt the equity method without remeasuring the retained equity.

Profit or loss on upstream, downstream, and lateral transactions between the Company and its associates is recognized in the standalone financial statements only to the extent that it does not affect the Company's interests in the associates.

(VIII) Property, plant, and equipment Property, plant and equipment are recognized at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over their useful lives. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The Company conducts at least one annual review at the end of each year to assess the estimated useful life, residual value, and depreciation methods, while applying the effect of changes in accounting estimates prospectively.

When derecognizing property, plant and equipment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in loss or profit. (IX) Investment Property Investment property refers to property held for the purpose of earning rent or capital appreciation or both. (Including the assets that meet the definition of investment property and the right-of-use assets). Investment property also includes land held, in which the future use has not yet been determined. Self-owned investment property is initially measured at cost (including transaction costs), and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. The investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis. When investment property is derecognized, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss. (X) Intangible asset 1. Acquired separately Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Intangible assets are amortized using straight-line method over the useful lives. The Company conducts at least one annual review at the end of each year to assess the estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization methods, while applying the effects of changes in accounting estimates prospectively. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are recognized at cost less accumulated impairment loss. 2. Internally generated— research and development (R&D) expenditure Research expenditure is recognized in expenses when incurred. 3. Acquired in a business combination The intangible assets obtained in a business combination are recognized at the fair value on the acquisition date and recognized separately from goodwill, and subsequently measured in the same method for the intangible assets acquired separately. 4. Derecognition When an intangible asset is derecognized, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

  • (XI) Impairment of assets related to property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, intangible assets, and assets related to contract costs

The Company assesses if there are any signs of possible impairment in property, plant, and equipment as well as right-of-use and intangible assets at each balance sheet date. If there is any sign of impairment, an estimate is made of its recoverable amount. If it is not possible to determine the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cashgenerating unit to which the asset belongs. Corporate assets are allocated to the smallest group of cashgenerating units on a reasonable and consistent basis.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually and whenever there is a sign that the assets may be impaired.

The recoverable amount is the fair value less cost of sales or its value in use, whichever is higher. If the recoverable amount of individual asset or the cash-generating unit is lower than its carrying amount,

  • 173 -

the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount, and the impairment loss is recognized in profit and loss.

The inventory, property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets related to customer contracts are first recognized as impairment in accordance with the inventory impairment regulations and the regulations above. Then, the carrying amount of the assets related to contract cost in excess of the expected amount of consideration received for the provision of the relevant goods or services less the direct relevant costs is recognized as an impairment loss. Subsequently, the carrying amount of the assets related to contract cost is included in the cash-generating unit to which they belong to perform impairment assessment of the cash-generating unit.

When the impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset, the cashgenerating unit, or the asset related to contract cost is increased to the revised recoverable amount, provided that the increased carrying amount shall not exceed the carrying amount (less amortization or depreciation) of the asset, cash-generating unit, or the asset related to contract cost which was not recognized as impairment loss in prior years. The reversal of the impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

(XII) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities shall be recognized in the standalone balance sheet when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Financial assets and financial liabilities not at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities. The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss is immediately recognized in profit or loss.

  1. Financial asset Regular trading of financial assets shall be recognized and derecognized in accordance with

trade date accounting.

  • (1) Measurement types

Financial assets held by the Company are those measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) and at amortized cost, as well as investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).

  • A. Disposal of financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets measured at FVTPL include those mandatorily measured at FVTPL and those designated as at FVTPL. Financial assets mandatorily measured at FVTPL include investments in equity instrument that the Company has not designated to measure at FVTOCI, and debt instruments that are not classified as measured at amortized cost or at FVTOCI.

Financial assets measured at FVTPL are measured at fair value, and the gains or losses arising from remeasurement (not including any dividends or interest generated by the financial asset) are recognized in other gains and losses. Please refer to Note 31 for the method of determining the fair value.

  • B. Financial assets at amortized cost

When the Company's investments in financial assets meet the following two conditions simultaneously, they are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost:

  • a. Held under a certain business model, of which the objective is to collect contractual cash flows by holding the financial assets; and

  • b. The cash flows on specific dates specified in the contractual terms are solely payments of the principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. After initial recognition, such assets (including cash and cash equivalents, notes

  • and accounts receivable measured at amortized cost, other receivables, other financial assets, guarantee deposits paid, and time deposits with the original maturity date of more than 3 months) are measured at the amortized cost of the total carrying amount determined by the effective interest method less any impairment loss, and any foreign currency exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.

Except for the following two cases, interest revenue is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate by the total carrying amount of financial assets:

  • a. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset, interest revenue is calculated by multiplying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate by the amortized cost of the financial asset.

  • b. For financial asset that is not purchased or originated credit-impaired but subsequently becomes credit impaired, interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate from the next reporting period after the credit impairment by the amortized cost of the financial asset.

  • 174 -

Credit-impaired financial assets refer to the fact that when an issuer or debtor has experienced major financial difficulties or default, the debtor is likely to apply for bankruptcy or other financial restructuring, or the active market for the financial assets disappears due to financial difficulties. Equivalent cash includes time deposits that are highly liquid, convertible into imprest cash at any time with little risk of value changes within 3 months from the date of acquisition, and is used to meet short-term cash commitments.

C. Investments in equity instruments measured at FVTOCI

The Company may, upon initial recognition, make an irrevocable election to designate as at FVTOCI the investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading and the ones that are not recognized by an acquirer in a business combination or with the contingent consideration.

Investments in an equity instrument measured at FVTOCI are measured at fair value, and any subsequent fair value changes are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. Upon disposal of investments, cumulative gain or loss is directly transferred to retained earnings and are not reclassified to profit or loss.

Dividends of investments in equity instruments measured at FVTOCI are recognized in profit or loss when the Company's right to receive dividends is established unless such dividends clearly represent the recovery of a part of the investment cost.

  • (2) Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses the impairment loss of financial assets measured at amortized cost (including accounts receivable) based on the expected credit loss on each balance sheet date.

Accounts receivable are recognized in allowance loss based on the lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs). Other financial assets are first assessed based on whether the credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition. If there is no significant increase in the risk, a loss allowance is recognized at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs. If the risks have increased significantly, a loss allowance is recognized at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

The ECLs refer to the weighted average credit loss with the risk of default as the weight. The 12-month ECLs represent the ECLs from possible defaults of a financial instrument within 12 months after the reporting date. The lifetime ECLs represent the ECLs from all possible defaults in a financial instrument over the expected life of a financial instrument.

For the purpose of internal credit risk management, the Company, without considering the collateral held, determines that the following situations represent defaults in the financial assets:

  • A. Internal or external information indicates that it is impossible for the debtor to settle the debt.

  • B. B. It is overdue for more than 90 days, unless there is reasonable and corroborative information showing that a default date postponed is more appropriate.

The Company recognizes an impairment loss for all financial assets with a corresponding downward adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account. However, the loss allowance for investment in debt instruments measured at FVTOCI is recognized in other comprehensive income without a downward adjustment to the carrying amount.

  • (3) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash inflow from the financial asset expire or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.

On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the consideration received is recognized in profit or loss. When the investment in debt instruments measured at FVTOCI is derecognized in its entirety, the difference between its carrying amount and the consideration received plus the sum of any accumulated gains or losses that have been recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss When derecognizing an investment in equity instrument at FVTOC in its entirety, the cumulative profit or loss is transferred directly to retained earnings and is not reclassified to profit or loss.

  1. Equity instrument

  2. 175 -

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of financial liabilities and equity instruments.

Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of the cost of direct issue.

The repurchase of the Company’s own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. The purchase, sale, issuance, or cancellation of the Company’s own equity instruments is not recognized in profit or loss.

  1. Financial liability

  2. (1) Subsequent measurement The Company’s all financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost in the effective

  3. interest method.

  4. (2) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.

(XIII) Provisions

The amount recognized in provision is based on the risk and uncertainty of the obligation, and is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date. The provisions are measured at the discounted value of the cash flow estimated to settle the obligation.

(XIV) Revenue recognition After the Company identifies its performance obligations in contracts with customers, it allocates the transaction costs to each obligation in the contracts and recognizes revenue upon completion of performance obligations.

If several contracts are signed with the same customer (or the customer's related party) almost at the same time, as the goods or services promised in these contracts are single performance obligations, the Company deals with the contracts separately.

  1. Sales revenue

Sales revenue comes from the sales of products. As when a product reaches the transaction conditions signed with a customer, the customer already has the right to set the price and the way the product is used while bearing the main responsibility for resale and the risk of obsolescence, at which the Company recognizes such revenue and reclassifies it to accounts receivable after fulfilling the remaining obligations. Advance receipts from sales are recognized as contract liabilities before a product reaches the transaction conditions signed with a customer.

In the case of export of raw materials overseas for processing, the control of the ownership of the processed product has not been transferred, so the income is not recognized when said materials are exported.

  • (XV) Leasing

  • At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.

    1. The Company as lessor

Where almost all the risks and rewards attached to the ownership of an asset are transferred to the lessee in lease terms, such leases are classified as finance leases. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

  1. The Company as lessee

The Group recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of each lease, except for low value asset leases and short-term leases accounted for by applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.

A right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost (including the initial measured amount of lease liabilities, the amount of lease payments made to the lessor less lease incentives received prior to the inception of a lease, initial direct costs, and the estimated costs of restoring underlying assets), and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the standalone balance sheets.

A right-of-use asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the period from the lease commencement date to the end of its useful life, or to the end of the lease term, whichever is earlier.

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of lease payments. If the interest rate implicit in a lease can be easily determined, the lease payment is discounted at such an interest rate. If the interest rate cannot be easily determined, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate applies.

  • 176 -

Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at the amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, and interest expense is amortized over the lease term. If changes in the lease term, the expected payment under the residual value guarantee, the evaluation of the underlying asset purchase options, or the index or rate used to determine the lease payment over the lease term lead to changes in future lease payments, the Company remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use assets. However, if the carrying amount of the rightof-use assets has been reduced to zero, the remaining remeasurement amount is recognized in profit or loss. For lease modifications that are not treated as a separate lease, remeasurement of the lease liabilities due to the reduced scope of the lease is to reduce the right-of-use assets, and to recognize the profit or loss of the partial or full termination of the lease; the remeasurement of the lease liabilities due to other modifications is to adjust the right-of-use assets. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the standalone balance sheets.

The Company and the lessor engaged in rent negotiations directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and adjusted the rents due before June 30, 2021, resulting in a decrease in the rents before the negotiation. These negotiations did not materially change other lease terms. The Company has elected to adopt practical expedients to treat rent negotiations that meet the aforementioned conditions without evaluating whether the negotiation is about a lease

modification, and recognizes the reduction in lease payments in profit or loss under other income and expenses when a concession occurs, and makes a corresponding downward adjustment to the lease liabilities.

(XVI) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to an acquisition, construction, or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of said assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

For specific borrowings, if the investment income earned by making a temporary investment before the capital expenditure that meets the requirements is incurred, it is deducted from the borrowing costs that meet the capitalization conditions.

Other than that which is stated above, all other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

(XVII) Employee benefits

  1. Short-term employee benefits Relevant liabilities for short-term employee benefits are measured by the non-discounted

amount expected to be paid in exchange for employee services.

  1. Post-employment benefits

For pension under the defined contribution plan, the amount of pension contributed is recognized as expenses during employees' service period.

The defined benefit cost under the defined benefit pension plan (including service cost, net interest, and remeasurement ) is calculated based on the projected unit credit method. The service cost (including the service cost for the current period) and the net interest of net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are recognized as employee benefit expenses as they occur. The remeasurement (including actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, net of interest) is recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in retained earnings when it occurs, and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.

The net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are the deficit (surplus) of the defined benefit pension plan. The net defined benefit assets may not exceed the present value of any refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan.

  1. Other long-term employee benefits

The accounting treatment of other long-term employee benefits is the same as that of postemployment benefits, but the relevant remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss.

  • 177 -

(XVIII) Share-based payment arrangement

Share-based payment arrangement for granting shares to employees

The share-based payment arrangement for equity delivery is based on the fair value of the equity instrument on the grant date and the best estimated number expected to be vested, and is recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis during the vesting period, while the capital surplus - employee share options is adjusted at the same time. If it is immediately vested on the grant date, the full amount of the shares shall be recognized in expenses on the grant date. The Company transfers treasury shares to employees, so the record date for the transfer is the grant date.

The Company revises the estimated number of expected vested employee share options at each

balance sheet date. If there is a revision to the original estimated number, the effect is recognized as profit or loss, so that the accumulated expenses will reflect the revised estimate, and the capital surplus - employee share options is adjusted accordingly.

(XIX) Income tax

  • The income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

    1. Tax currently payable

The Company determines the income (loss) of the current year in accordance with the laws and regulations in each jurisdiction area for income tax filings, and calculates the income tax payable (recoverable) accordingly.

A surtax imposed on the undistributed earnings pursuant to the Income Tax Act of R.O.C. is recognized via a resolution at the annual shareholders' meeting.

  • Adjustments to income tax payable from prior years are recognized in the current income tax.

    1. Deferred tax

Deferred income tax is calculated based on the temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable income.

Deferred income tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized when there are likely to be taxable income to deduct temporary differences, loss carryforwards, equipment purchase, research and development, as well as talent training expenditure.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that said temporary difference will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. The deductible temporary differences related to said investments and equity are recognized as deferred income tax only if it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income to realize the temporary differences, and they are expected to be reversed in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at each balance sheet date, and its carrying amount will be increased as it has become probable that future taxable income will allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates in the period in which the liabilities are expected to be settled or assets realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the balance sheet date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

  1. Current and deferred income tax

Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity; in which case, the current and deferred taxes are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

  • 178 -

V. Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation and Uncertainty

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, the management is required to make judgments, estimations, and assumptions about the relevant information that is not readily accessible from other sources based on historical experience and other relevant factors. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The Company takes into account the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in its critical accounting estimates, and the management will constantly review the estimates and basic assumptions. If an amendment to estimates only affects the current period, it shall be recognized in the period of said amendment; if an amendment to accounting estimates affects the current year and future periods, it shall be recognized in the period of said amendment and future periods.

Key Sources of Estimation and Assumption Uncertainty

  • (I) Inventory impairment

The NRV of inventories is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. These estimates are based on current market conditions and historical and historical sales experience in similar products. Changes in market conditions may materially affect the results of these estimates.

Note: Because the public company Unity Opto Technology co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Unity Opto) failed to publish its financial statements for 2019 within the specified time limit, it was sanctioned by the Taiwan Stock Exchange on April 1, 2020, and it stock was stopped to be traded starting from April 7, 2020. After prudent evaluation, the Company recognized all shares of Unity Opto held as financial asset valuation losses on March 31, 2020.

The Company has invested in the common stocks of the above-mentioned companies in accordance with medium and long-term strategic purposes, and expects to make profits through long-term investments. The management of the Company believes that if the short-term fair value fluctuations of these investments are recognized in profit or loss, it is inconsistent with the aforementioned long-term investment plan, so it has elected to designate these investments as at FVTOCI.

Notes and accounts receivable

The average credit period for customers is open account with net 30 to 180 days. In addition to the loss allowance for individual customers’ actual credit impairment loss, the Company refers to historical experience, considers individual customers’ financial status, industries, competitive advantages, and prospects, and divides them into different risk groups and recognizes loss allowances for each group based on their expected loss rates. In addition, a 100% loss allowance is recognized for accounts receivable with an account opened for over 365 days and no other credit guarantee provided.

In order to reduce credit risk, the management of the Company is responsible for the determination of credit limit, credit approval, and other monitoring procedures to ensure that appropriate actions have been taken in the recovery of overdue receivables. In addition, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of the receivables one by one at the balance sheet date to ensure that the appropriate impairment loss is recognized for uncollectible receivables. With that, the management believes the Company’s credit risk has been significantly reduced.

The Company adopts the simplified approach of IFRS 9 to recognize the loss allowance for accounts receivable based on the lifetime ECLs.

If there is evidence that the counterparty is facing serious financial difficulties and the Company cannot reasonably expect to recover the amount, e.g., the counterparty is in liquidation, the Company directly writes off the relevant accounts receivable, but will continue to try to collect the receivable. The recovered amount is recognized in profit or loss.

The actual selling price exceeded the carrying amount of the relevant net assets, so when these units were classified as non-current assets held for sale, there was no impairment loss that shall be recognized. The Company signed a property sale and purchase agreement with a non-related party in December 2019 to dispose of the Company’s land and buildings at Linsen Road, Hsinchu City, at a price of NT$3,700,000 (without deduction of business tax and other disposal costs of NT$256,000), and disposal procedure was completed in February 2020. The land and buildings were originally accounted for under investment property, and were reclassified as non-current assets held for sale on December 31, 2019, and presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheet, and there was no impairment loss that shall be recognized during the reclassification. From January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020, the Company recognized the depreciation expense of the non-current assets held for sale of NT$3,000 and the gains on disposal of the non-current assets held for sale of NT$614,000.

  1. Material associates The Company's percentages of ownership interests and voting rights in associates at the balance sheet date are as follows:

Percentage of ownership and voting rights Company name Dec. 31, 2020 Dec. 31, 2019 Hsinjing (formerly known as

Tynsolar) 22.79% 22.90%

The Company had substantive control over Hsinjing before June 20, 2019, and was classified as a subsidiary; it later judged that the Company had no substantive ability to dominate relevant activities of Hsinjing’s board of directors and management regarding important decisions since June 20, 2019. As a result, the Company lost control, and from the date of loss of control (regarded as the date of disposal), it ceased to include Hsinjing in the consolidated statements, and the fair value of its remaining investment was reclassified to the cost of investment in the associates. See Note 29 for details.

The Company continued to dispose of Hsinjing’s shares in 2020, resulting in a decrease in the ownership to 22.79%, but it still had a significant influence over the company.

Refer to Table 4 in Note 36. “Information on Investees” for the nature of business, principal places of business, and countries of incorporation of the associates above.

The Company adopts the equity method to measure the above-mentioned associate. For investments using the equity method and the Company's share of profits and losses and other comprehensive income on the associate, with the exception of associates that are not individually material that are calculated based on financial statements that have not been audited by CPAs, the rest are calculated based on financial statements that have been audited by CPAs. However, the management of the Company believes that the fact that the above-mentioned investee has not been audited by CPAs does not have a significant impact.

The information on Level 1 fair value of associate with open market quotes is as follows:

Company name Dec. 31, 2020 Dec. 31, 2019 Hsinjing $ 782,050 $ 171,301

On February 27, 2020, Tynsolar’s board of directors passed a resolution to suspend the trading of stocks on Taipei Exchange, and established Hsinjing by means of share swap. The Company received Hsinjing’s shares swapped from Tynsolar’s on March 2, 2020, with the ownership percentage remaining unchanged.

The following aggregate financial information on the material associate in 2020 and 2019 is prepared on the basis of IFRSs and has already reflected the adjustments made when the equity method is adopted.

Investment property includes land and buildings, of which buildings are depreciated on a straightline basis based on 55 years of useful life. All the Company’s investment property is self-owned equity. Due to the infrequent transactions in the comparable market and the inability to obtain reliable alternative fair value estimates for the Company’s investment property, the fair value cannot be determined reliably.

For the amount of investment property pledged for loans, please refer to Note 33.

(I) The provisions for employee benefits include the estimates of the employees’ vested long service leave rights and the estimates of the employees’ long service bonuses.

XXIII. Post-employment benefit plans

(I) Defined contribution plans

The Company adopted a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (LPA), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, the Company makes monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.

  • (II) Defined benefit plan

The defined benefit plan adopted by the Company in accordance with the Labor Standards Act is the defined benefit plan under the management of the government of R.O.C. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the 6 months before retirement. The Company contributes an amount, which equals to 2% of each employee’ total monthly salary and wage, which is deposited by the Pension Fund Monitoring Committee in the pension account with the Bank of Taiwan in the name of the committee. Before the end of each year, if the balance in the pension account assessed is inadequate to pay for the retirement benefits for employees who meet the retirement requirements in the following year, the Company will contributes an amount to make up for the difference in a lump sum by the end of March of the following year. The pension account is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor; the Company has no right to influence the investment management strategy.

The amounts included in the standalone balance sheets in respect of the Company’s defined benefit plan are as follows:

  • Due to the pension plans under the Labor Standards Act, the Company is exposed to the following

  • risks:

  • Investment risk: The Bureau invests labor pension funds in domestic (foreign) equity securities, debt securities, and bank deposits on its own use and through agencies entrusted. However, the Company’s amount allocated to plan assets is calculated based on the interest rate not lower than the local bank's interest rate for 2-year time deposits.

  • Interest risk: A decrease in the interest rate in the government bonds will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, the return on the debt investment through the plan assets will also increase, and the increases will partially offset the effect of the net defined benefit liability.

  • Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated with reference to the future salaries of the participants in the plan. As such, an increase in the salary of the participants in the plan will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

  • 191 -

The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The critical assumptions made on the measurement date are as follows:

Discount rate
Salary adjustment rate
Dec. 31, 2020
0.36%
2.50%
Dec. 31, 2019
0.74%
2.50%

If each of the critical actuarial assumptions is subject to reasonably possible changes, when all other assumptions remain unchanged, the amounts by which the present value of the defined benefit obligation would increase (decrease) are as follows:

would increase (decrease) are as follows:
Discount rate
0.25% increase

  • Such capital surplus may be used to offset a deficit; in addition, when the Company has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to share capital (limited to a certain percentage of the Company’s capital surplus and once a year).

  • This type of capital surplus is the effect of equity transactions recognized due to changes in the Company’s equity or the adjustment to the capital surplus of the subsidiary accounted for using the equity method by the Company when the Company has not actually acquired or disposed of the equity of the subsidiary.

  • (III) Retained earnings and dividends policy

The Company’s shareholders’ meeting passed a resolution on June 24, 2019, to amend the Articles of Incorporation. According to the Company’s amended Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s earnings distribution policy stipulates that the Company's earnings distribution or loss compensation shall be proposed by the board of directors after the end of each semi-annual fiscal period. In the case of issue of new shares, it shall be submitted to the shareholders’ meeting for a resolution. Any cash distribution of dividend, profit, legal reserve or capital reserve, whether in whole or in part, must be resolved in a board meeting with more than two-thirds of the board present, voted in favor by more than half of attending directors, and reported in the upcoming shareholder meeting.

According to the earnings distribution policy of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, if there is a net income after tax at the end of the year, the Company shall pay all taxes in accordance with the law and compensate accumulated losses first, and then allocate 10% as a statutory reserve in accordance with the law unless the statutory reserve has reached the same amount of the Company paid-in capital. Where there are any earnings left, the Company allocates or reverses the special reserve according to laws or regulations or regulations of the competent authority. If there are any earnings remaining, together with the undistributed earnings at the beginning of the same period (including adjustments to the amount of undistributed earnings), the board of directors shall draft an earnings distribution proposal and submit it to the shareholders’ meeting to resolve the distribution of shareholders’ dividends. For information on the policy of the employee compensation and remuneration of directors and supervisors as in the Company's Articles of Incorporation, refer to Note 26 (9) regarding employee compensation and remuneration of directors.

In addition according to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the Company adopts a dividend policy that allows the board of directors to propose dividends after taking into consideration its future capital requirements, long-term financial plans, and shareholders' needs for cash inflow. Profit sharing to shareholders can be paid in cash or shares, provided that the cash portion does not amount to less than 10% of total profit sharing.

Appropriation of earnings to legal reserve shall be made until the reserve equals the Company’s paid-in capital. Legal reserves may be used to offset the deficit. If the Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.

The Company set aside and reversed a special reserve in accordance with the FSC Letters Jin-GuanZheng-Fa No. 1010012865, Jin-Guan-Zheng-Fa No. 1010047490, and Jin-Guan-Zheng-Fa No. 1030006415, as well as the directive, entitled “Questions and Answers for Special Reserves Appropriated Following Adoption of IFRSs”.

The earnings distribution for 2019 and 2018 were approved in the shareholders’ meetings on June 23, 2020, and June 20, 2019, respectively, and the distribution was as follows:

Unit: NT$ Per Share
2020 2019
Basic earnings per share $ 1.02 $ 0.60
Diluted earnings per share $ 1.01 $ 0.60
The net income and weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding in calculating earnings per
share were as follows:
Net income of the current year
2020 2019
Net income in the computation of diluted
earnings per share $ 304,498 $ 179,858
Number of shares Unit: Thousand Shares

Weighted average number of ordinary
shares used in the computation of

If the Company can settle the compensation to employees in cash or shares, the Company assumes the entire amount of the compensation would be settled in shares and the resulting potential shares are included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share if the effect is dilutive. Such a dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the shareholders resolve the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year.

XXIX. Disposal of investment in subsidiary—loss of control

The Company has lost control of Hsinjing since June 20, 2019 because it no longer had substantive ability to dominate relevant activities of its board of directors and management, and since the date of loss of control (regarded as the day of disposal), it has been reclassified as investment in associates, the remaining fair value is regarded as the cost of the investment in associates upon initial recognition, and a gain of NT$8,333,000 was generated from disposal of the former subsidiary.

XXX. Capital risk management

In accordance with the overall business environment and the Company’s future development, the Company’s capital structure is regularly reviewed by the main management personnel in consideration of external competition, changes in the environment, and other factors. The review includes consideration for various types of capital costs and relevant risks to determine an appropriate capital structure of the Company. The purpose is to satisfy the Company’s requirements for working capital, research and development expenses, and dividend expenditures in the future, while ensuring that the Company can continue to operate, give back to shareholders, and take into account the interests of other stakeholders, and maintaining the best capital structure to enhance shareholders’ value on a long term.

The capital structure of the Company consists of net debt (borrowings less cash and cash equivalents) and equity of the Company (comprising share capital, capital surplus, retained earnings, and other equity items).

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

The key management personnel of the Company reviews the capital structure annually. As part of this review, the key management personnel considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. Under the suggestions of the key management personnel, the Company may pay dividends, issue new shares, buy back shares, and issue new debts or repay old debts to balance the overall capital structure.

XXXI. Financial instruments

  • (I) Fair value—financial instruments not at fair value

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities and lease payables measured at amortized cost was close to their fair value in the financial statements at the end of the financial reporting period.

  • Note 1: The balances include financial assets measured at amortized cost, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, other financial assets, and refundable deposits.

  • Note 2: The balances included financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, which comprise shortterm borrowings, notes payable, other payables, current portion of long-term borrowings, bonds payable, long-term borrowings, and guarantee deposits received.

  • (IV) Financial risk management objective and policies

The Company's main financial instruments include equity and debt instrument investment, accounts receivable, accounts payable, bonds payable, and borrowings. The Company's financial management department provides services to various business units, coordinates the operations in the domestic and international financial markets, and supervises and manages the financial risks related to the Company's operations by analyzing internal risk reports based on the degree and breadth of risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk, and other price risks), credit risk, and liquidity risk. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to avoid risk exposure to mitigate the impact of these risks. The use of derivative financial instruments is regulated by the policies adopted by the Company's board of directors, which are written principles for exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and the investment of remaining working capital. Compliance with policies and exposure limits is being reviewed by the internal auditors continuously. The Company does not trade financial instruments (including derivative financial instruments) for speculative purposes.

  1. Market risk

The main financial risks for the Company’s operating activities are the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (1) below) and the risk of changes in interest rates (see (2) below). The Company engages in various derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and other price risks.

The Company's exposure to the market risk of financial instruments and its management and measurement methods for the risk exposure have remained unchanged.

  • (1) Exchange rate risk

The Company is engaged in sale and purchase transactions denominated in foreign currencies, which has caused the Company to be exposed to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. Approximately 85.46% of the Company's sales are not denominated in the functional currency, and approximately 67.07% of the cost is not denominated in the functional currency. The Company's management of the exposure to the exchange rate risk is to use foreign currency options contracts to manage risks within the scope permitted by the policy.

For the carrying amount of monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies at the balance sheet date, please refer to Note 35. Sensitivity analysis

The Company was mainly affected by the fluctuations in the exchange rates of USD, JPY, and CNY.

The following table details the Company’s sensitivity analysis when the New Taiwan dollar (functional currency) increases and decreases by 1% against each relevant foreign currency. The sensitivity to a 1% change in New Taiwan dollars is used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and also represents the management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis only included monetary items in foreign currencies in circulation, and the year-end translation was adjusted with a 1% change in the exchange rates. The positive numbers in the table below indicate the amount by which the net income before tax will be

  • 202 -

reduced when the New Taiwan dollar appreciates by 1% against the relevant currencies; when the New Taiwan dollar depreciates by 1% against the relevant foreign currencies, the net income before tax will be the negative number of the same amount.

Impact of USD Impact of JPY Impact of CNY 2020 2019 2020 2019 2020 2019 Gains (losses) $ 11,845(i) $ 10,620(i) ( $ 1,291)(ii) ( $ 1,207)(ii) $ 4,464(iii) $ 4,361(iii) (i) Mainly derived from the Company's USD-denominated receivables and payables still outstanding at the balance sheet date, against which a cash flow hedge has not been conducted.

  • (ii) Mainly derived from the Company's JPY-denominated payables still outstanding at the balance sheet date, against which a cash flow hedge has not been conducted.

  • (iii) Mainly derived from the Company's CNY-denominated receivables and payables still outstanding at the balance sheet date, against which a cash flow hedge has not been conducted.

Sales denominated in US dollars are seasonal. With the higher sales in the fourth quarter, the balance of accounts receivable denominated in USD increased at the end of the year. Therefore, the exposure to the foreign currency risk at the balance sheet date cannot reflect the risk exposure throughout the year.

(2) Interest rate risk Because individual entities within the Company borrow funds at fixed and floating interest rates at the same time, the interest rate risk risks arise. The Company manages the interest rate risk by maintaining an appropriate combination of fixed and floating interest rates.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to the interest rate risk at the balance sheet date are as follows:

Fair value interest rate risk
-Financial assets
-Financial liabilities
Cash flow interest rate risk
-Financial assets
-Financial liabilities

Dec. 31, 2019

1,045,200

The sensitivity analysis below is determined based on the exposure to the interest rate risk of derivative and non-derivative instruments at the balance sheet date. For liabilities with floating interest rates, the analysis method is based on the assumption that the amount of liabilities outstanding at the balance sheet date is in outstanding throughout the reporting period. The sensitivity to a 1% change in interest rate is used when reporting the interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and also represents the management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

If the interest rate increased/decreased by 1% and all other variables remain unchanged, the Company’s net income before tax for 2020 and 2019 would have decreased/increased by NT$187,000 and NT$235,000, respectively, mainly due to the Company’s borrowings with variable interest rates. (3) Other price risk

The Company's exposure to the equity price risk is due to the investment in the listed equity securities. The management of the Company manages the risk by holding investment portfolios with different risk factors. The Company's equity price risk is mainly concentrated on Taiwan Stock Exchange’s equity instruments in specific industries. Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis below is based on the equity price risk exposure at the balance sheet date.

If the equity price increased/decreased by 1%, the profit or loss before tax for 2020 and 2019 would have increased/decreased by NT$2,144,000 and NT$3,048,000 due to the increase in the fair value of financial assets at FVTPL.

Other comprehensive income before tax for 2020 and 2019 would have increased/decreased by NT$68,000 and NT$112,000 due to changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI.

The Company's sensitivity to price risks decreased for the current year, mainly due to the decrease in the positions exposed to other price risks.

2. Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Company. At the balance sheet date, the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Company due to failure of counterparties to perform an obligation and financial guarantees provided by the Company could arise from:

  • (1) The carrying amount of the financial assets recognized in the standalone balance sheet.

  • (2) The amount of contingent liabilities arising from the financial guarantee provided by the Company.

The policy adopted by the Company is to conduct transactions only with reputable counterparties, and obtain sufficient guarantees under necessary circumstances to reduce the risk of financial losses due to defaults. The Company only conducts transactions with companies whose ratings are equal to or higher than the investment grade Such information is provided by independent rating agencies; if such information is not available, the Company will refer to other publicly available financial information and mutual transaction records to rate its major customers. The Company continuously monitors credit risk and the credit rating of its counterparties, and distributes the total transaction amount to customers with qualified credit ratings, and controls the exposure to credit risk through the counterparty credit limits that are reviewed and approved by the financial management department every year.

In order to mitigate the credit risk, the management of the Company assigns a dedicated team responsible for the determination of credit limits, credit approval, and other monitoring procedures to ensure that appropriate actions have been taken in the recovery of overdue receivables. In addition, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of the receivables one by one at the balance sheet date to ensure that the appropriate impairment loss is recognized for uncollectible receivables. With that, the management believes the Company’s credit risk has been significantly reduced.

The credit risk on liquid funds and derivatives is not high because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.

  • The Company's customer base is large and unrelated, so the concentration of credit risk is not

  • high.

  • Liquidity risk

The Company manages and maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents to support its operations and mitigate the impact of cash flow fluctuations. The management of the Company monitors the use of the bank financing facilities and ensures compliance with the terms of the borrowing terms.

Bank borrowings were an important source of liquidity for the Company. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, for the Company’s unutilized credit facilities, please refer to (2) below for description of financing facilities.

  • (1) Liquidity and interest rate risk tables for non-derivative financial liabilities

The remaining contractual maturity analysis of non-derivative financial liabilities was based on the earliest date at which the Company might be required to repay and was compiled based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities (including principal and estimated interest). Therefore, the bank borrowings with a repayment on demand clause were included in the earliest time period, regardless of the probability of exercise of the right by banks. The maturity analysis of other non-derivative financial liabilities was compiled in accordance with the agreed repayment date. Dec. 31, 2020

The amount of floating interest rate instruments for the aforementioned non-derivative financial assets and liabilities will change due to the difference between the floating interest rate and the interest rate estimated at the balance sheet date.

The financial guarantee contract amount above is the maximum amount that the Company may have to pay to fulfill the guarantee obligation if the holder of the financial guarantee contract asks the guarantor to pay for the full guarantee amount. However, based on the expectations at the balance sheet date, the Company believes that it is unlikely that such contract payments will be paid.

Analysis of changes in proportion: the key reasons of changes of NT$100 million and 20% or more between two consecutive
period, and their impact, as following:
1.
Other income and expenses, net: mainly because the subsidiary accommodated the government to recover the lands and
disposed the right-of-use for income
2.
Non-operating income and expense: mainly because the subsidiary accommodated the government to recover the lands and
disposed the right-of-use for income of NT$174,980 thousand.
3.
Income tax expense: mainly due to the increase in profits and profit from the disposal of the right-of-use and building by a
subsidiary,resultingin an increase in income tax.

(II) Sales forecast and basis

The consolidated entity expects higher sales volume in 2021 compared to 2020. This forecast has been made mainly based upon changes in the macro environment, industry trends, and the Company's prospects, operational overview, and goals.

  • (III) Possible financial impacts and response plans

  • The COVID-19 pandemic has had direct impact on production and consumption activities in 2020. Despite the negative impact on global demand, the supply chain remained largely unaffected and the ongoing detachment from China actually benefited Taiwanese businesses. Furthermore, increased demand for back lighting, MinLED, and niche products are all expected to benefit and contribute to the growth of Taiwan's LED industry in 2021. Meanwhile, support for energy-efficient lighting from prominent nations around the world combined with growth of special lighting applications such as Mini LED display, Mini LED back lighting, UV-C LED, automobile lighting, and high efficiency LED lighting will all fuel growth of the LED industry. In particular, Micro LED offers excellent characteristics and the potential to be used in conjunction with different types of display panel through mass transfer technology to deliver luminance, contrast, responsiveness, and power efficiency at levels that exceed LCD and OLED. Future applications of this technology include wristwatch, cellphone, automobile display, AR, VR, Monitor, TV, and large-size display. Application of IoT relies significantly on the use of sensors. Only when adequate number of sensors has been deployed can data be gathered and updated in real time to support AI algorithms and machine learning. The consolidated entity is actively expanding into non-LED fields including sensors as a means to satisfy demand for applications such as wearable device, automobile, consumer electronics, and medicine.

The interest income, interest expense, and exchange gains and losses accounted for approximately 0.38%, 0.99%, and (1.48)% of operating income of the consolidated company in 2020. The interest income, interest expenses, and exchange gains and losses accounted for approximately 2.51%, 6.64%, and (9.89)% in the net profit before tax, which are no significant impact on the Company's profit and loss. The exchange gains and losses are affected to a certain extent by the appreciation/depreciation of the US dollar and CNY exchange rate, and thus impact on the consolidated company’s export revenue.

(2) Specific measures of the consolidated company in response to changes in interest rates and exchange rates

The consolidated company always monitor the fluctuation of interest rate and exchange rate, and formulate the "Procedure for Acquiring or Disposing Assets" as a control, to avoid interest rate and foreign exchange risks arising from operations.

  • ○1 Interest rate:

In addition to the company’s own profits and shareholder capital contributions, the working capital of the consolidated company also comes from bank financing, and the interest expense mainly comes from bank financing for material procurement, syndicated loans, and short-term borrowings. The consolidated company ontinues to maintain good relations with banks, proactively apply for the Taiwanese Companyies Returned Investment Action Program, and the approved has be granted. The company also monitors changes in market interest rates to obtain more favorable interest rates and reduce interest expenses. Therefore, the changes in market interest rates have no material impact on the consolidated company.

  • ○2 Foreign exchange rate:

77% of sales of the consolidated company are exportation, leading to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. Faced with exchange rate risks, the countermeasures of the consolidated company are as follows:

  • A. Buy or sell foreign exchange forwards.

  • B. Strengthen procurement capabilities, reduce costs of raw material purchase, and negotiate sharing exchange rate risks with suppliers. If the magnitude exchange rate changes increases, transaction price will be renegotiated with the supplier.

  • C. Strengthen the ability to develop sources of incoming materials and avoid excessive influence from a single currency exchange rate.

  • D. The quotation system with customers include the consideration of selling price adjustment due to

  • 221 -

exchange rate changes to protect the Company's existing profits.

  • E. Pay the expenditure in foreign currency generated from importation with the export revenue in same currency, to shift partial FX risks.

  • F. Adjust foreign currency positions based on exchange rate changes.

  • (3) Inflation:

At present, the monetary policies of various powerful economies are still under control, and there is no concern of inflation for the time being. As of the publication date of the annual report, the consolidated company has not had any significant impact on the company’s profit and loss due to inflation. Sales prices are adjusted any time in response to market fluctuations to reduce the impact of changes in inflation.

  • (II) Policies of engagement in high-risk and highly leveraged investments, loans to others, endorsements and guarantees and derivative trading, main reasons for profit or loss and future countermeasures:

  • Engagement in high-risk and highly leveraged investments: none.

  • Loaning of funds to others, endorsements and guarantees:

The consolidated company loans of funds and provides external endorsement/guarantee are mainly for the operating liquidity of subsidiaries, or repayment of bank loans. Such are handled pursuant to TYNTEK’s “Operating Procedures for Loaning of Funds to Others” and “Operational Procedures for Endorsement/Guarantee.” As of the end of 2020, the amount of loaning of funds and external endorsement/guarantee of the consolidated company was NT$10,000 thousands and NT$0, respectively.

  1. Policy, and gains or loss of derivative transactions, and the response in the future:

No derivative transaction was conducted in 2020. If the consolidated company engages in derivatives transactions, the counterparties are are limited to creditworthy correspondent banks with no expectation of default, so the possibility of credit risk is extremely low. Secondly, the above-mentioned transactions are of a hedging nature, and gains and losses due to exchange rate changes will be offset with the hedged items, so the market risk is usually low. Meanwhile, the consolidated company controls the transaction risk of financial products by limiting the information and trading capabilities of the trading counterparties, and also uses the financing tools in the money market and foreign exchange markets, as well as the appropriate current assets to plan future cash requirements. Therefore, the management of the consolidated company expects that the above-mentioned financial product transactions should not cause major losses.

  • (III) Future R&D projects and estimated R&D expenses

  • Future R&D projects

The Company has always focused on the product R&D capability and with the continuous efforts over the past years, we have been able to develop and launch numerous outstanding new products, and have also been able to gain support from the public sector and government agencies, All of such achievements demonstrate the Company's commitment and dedication in R&D technologies.

  • The estimated R&D expenses of LED optoelectronics: NT$130,000 thousand.

  • (IV) The impact of important domestic and overseas policy and regulation changes on the financial status of the Company and countermeasures:

With the requirements of relevant laws and regulations and the increasing awareness of energy-saving, the demand for LED lighting is increasing. The government subsidies to LED manufacturers will also stimulate the LED lighting market. The consolidated company has been aware of important domestic and foreign policy and legal changes in the most recent years through various information channels, and adopted appropriate response measures, so that it will not have a significant impact on the consolidated company's finance and business.

  • (V) The impact of technological and industrial changes on the financial status of the Company and countermeasures:

The consolidated company will improve product quality and develop new products in response to changes in technology. The consolidated company will maintain good cooperative relations with upstream and downstream suppliers and customers, grasp the pulse of the market, and engage in research and development and improvement processes related to cope with customers’ needs and market changes, with continuous expansion of production, to enhance the competitiveness of the consolidated company. With the development of communication systems, 4G and 5G mobile communications have become popular year by year. Among them, 5G is more closely connected to the Internet, from the Internet of Things, the Internet of Vehicles to the cloud; the connection of different platforms is through the connection among large, small, and micro base stations. It is expected that in 2021, 5G infrastructure construction will rebound. In addition to base stations, the demands for backhaul optical fiber networks of base stations, and small base stations are also expected to increase significantly. The Chinese market will act as the locomotive of 5G construction, and Taiwan will subsidize construction to encourage the purchase of domestic products. The recovery of the optical communication market has become the most eye-catching industry in recent years. The demands for wireless and wired transmission capacity and bandwidth are increasing. The new generation of communication systems must provide higher transmission rates and bandwidth services to meet the needs of users. In wired transmission, optical fiber has become the backbone of the communication system. Affected by the COVID-19 pandemic since 2020, we have actively developed pandemic containment technical applications. Among them, deep UV LED is the focus of current anti-pandemic technical applications. Taiwanese manufacturers have actively positioned the UVC LED products, applied lamps, flashlights, air purifiiers, and cleaning robots, or portable disinfection products sterilizing the daily necessities such as masks, glasses, or electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets, to strengthen personal protection and improve the health and safety of public areas. As of the publication date of the annual report, the consolidated company has not had a significant adverse effect on the company's finance and business due to technological changes and industrial changes.

(VI) The impact of corporate image change on the Company’s crisis management and countermeasures: Merger The company has been committed to maintaining its corporate image for many years and complying with laws and regulations. If there is a situation that affects the corporate image or violates laws and regulations, a special team will be formed to formulate countermeasures. However, once a corporate crisis occurs, it may cause considerable damage to the Company. Therefore, the consolidated company will continue to comply with and mak the best efforts to implement various corporate governance requirements, while consulting relevant experts in a timely manner, to reduce the occurrence of such risks and the impact of these risks on the finance and business of the consolidated company. As of the pubication date of the annual report, there has not been anything that could affect the corporate image.

impairment
assessment
methodologies
defined in IFRS.
The Company assesses accounts receivable for signs of impairment
on each balance sheet date. A receivable account is treated as
impaired if there is objective evidence to suggest that the estimated
future cash flow may have been impaired due to single or multiple
events since initial recognition. Objective evidence of impairment
may include the following situations:
1. A debtor encounters serious financial distress; or
2. A receivable account becomes overdue; or
3. A debtor is very likely to undergo bankruptcy or financial
restructuring.
For certain accounts receivable that show no signs of impairment
on a standalone basis, the Company would also assess impairment
on an aggregate basis. Objective evidence of impairment on a group
of accounts receivable may be identified based on the Company's
past collection experience, signs of delayed payments in a
particular group of receivables, and nationwide or regional change
of economic circumstances that are relevant to the default of
accounts receivable.
The amount of impairment is the difference between the asset's
book value and the amount of expected future cash flows
discounted using effective interest rate (that reflects collaterals or
guarantees) at the time of initiation. The book value of accounts
receivable is reduced by the presence of an allowance account.
Receivable balances that are deemed unrecoverable are charged
against the allowance account. Amounts charged off but recovered
in subsequent periods are credited to the allowance account.
Changes in the book value of the allowance account are recognized
as expected credit loss.

substitutable materials or other circumstances supported by
evidence).
(II) For supplies, devaluation losses are recognized by comparing
price of replacement to cost.
(III) For finished goods and merchandise, devaluation losses are
recognized by comparing the most recent price of sales
receivable or order price to cost in the last year.
(IV) Reworks
1. Reworks that are estimated to be of no market value upon
completion will be subject to 100% loss provision.
2. For other reworks, the Company assesses whether the
finished work has lost in value and recognizes devaluation
losses by comparing net realizable value.
(V) Work-in-progress
1. For works-in-progress, the Company estimates net
realizable value by taking into account additional costs to
completion and selling expenses, and compares net
realizable value to cost to provide for devaluation loss.
2. Works-in-progress that are estimated to be of no market
value upon completion will be subject to 100% loss
provision.
Other inventory items that are not subject to devaluation loss are
carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventory level
