U-MING MARINE TRANSPORT CORPORATION
NOTES TO PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019 AND 2018 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
U-Ming Marine Transport Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Republic of China (ROC) in August 1968. The Company not only own and manage ships that transport dry bulk cargoes, specializing in cement, coal, iron ore and grain. The Company’s shares are listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange since December 8, 1990.
The parent company only financial statements of the Company are presented in the Company’s financial currency, the New Taiwan dollar (NTD).
2. APPROVAL OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The parent company only financial statements were approved by the Company’s board of directors on March 10, 2020.
3. APPLICATION OF NEW, AMENDED AND REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS
- a. 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 initial application of the amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRSs endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC did not have material impact on the Group’s accounting policies:
IFRS 16 “Leases”
IFRS 16 provides a comprehensive model for the identification of lease arrangements and their treatment in the financial statements of both lessee and lessor. It supersedes IAS 17 “Leases”, IFRIC 4 “Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease”, and a number of related interpretations. Refer to Note 4 for information relating to the relevant accounting policies.
Definition of a lease
The Group elects to apply the guidance of IFRS 16 in determining whether contracts are, or contain, a lease only to contracts entered into (or changed) on or after January 1, 2019. Contracts identified as containing a lease under IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 are not reassessed and are accounted for in accordance with the transitional provisions under IFRS 16.
- 8 -
The Company as lessee
The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the parent company only balance sheets except for those whose payments under low-value and short-term leases are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis. On the parent company only statements of comprehensive income, the Company are presents the depreciation expense charged on right-of-use assets separately from the interest expense accrued on lease liabilities; interest is computed using the effective interest method. On the parent company only statements of cash flows, cash payments for the principal portion of lease liabilities are classified within financing activities; cash payments for the interest portion are classified within operating activities. Prior to the application of IFRS 16, payments under operating lease contracts recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis. Cash flows for operating leases were classified within operating activities on the parent company only statements of cash flows.
The Company elects to apply IFRS 16 retrospectively with the cumulative effect of the initial application of this standard recognized in retained earnings on January 1, 2019. Comparative information is not restated.
The Company also applies the following practical expedients:
-
a) The Company applies a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics to measure lease liabilities.
-
b) The Company accounts for those leases for which the lease term ends on or before December 31, 2019 as short-term leases.
-
c) The Company excludes initial direct costs from the measurement of right-of-use assets on January 1, 2019.
-
d) The Company uses hindsight, such as in determining lease terms, to measure lease liabilities.
The Company as lessor
The Company does not make any adjustments for leases in which it is a lessor, and it accounts for those leases with the application of IFRS 16 starting from January 1, 2019.
Since all operational vessels are the Company’s self-owned vessels, and there are no vessels leased for long-term use, after assessment, initial application of IFRS 16 was found not to have a material impact on the Company.
The difference between the further minimum lease payments of non-cancellable operating lease commitments and lease liabilities recognized under IFRS 16 on December 31, 2018 is explained as follows:
| The future minimum lease payments of non-cancellable operating lease commitments on December 31, 2018 Less: Recognition exemption for short-term leases Less: Recognition exemption for leases of low-value assets Undiscounted amounts on January 1, 2019 Lease liabilities recognized on January 1, 2019 |

b. The IFRSs endorsed by the FSC for application starting from 2020
Effective Date New IFRSs Announced by IASB Amendments to IFRS 3 “Definition of a Business” January 1, 2020 (Note 1) Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 “Interest Rate Benchmark January 1, 2020 (Note 2) Reform” Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8 “Definition of Material” January 1, 2020 (Note 3)
-
Note 1: The Company shall apply these amendments to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2020 and to asset acquisitions that occur on or after the beginning of that period.
-
Note 2: The Company shall apply these amendments retrospectively for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020.
-
Note 3: The Company shall apply these amendments prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020.
As of the date the parent company only financial statements were authorized for issue, the Company is continuously assessing the possible impact that the application of the above standards and interpretations will have on the Company’s financial position and financial performance, and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed.
- c. New IFRSs in issue but not yet endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC
Effective Date New IFRSs Announced by IASB (Note) Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution of Assets To be determined by IASB between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture” IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” January 1, 2021 Amendments to IAS 1 “Classification of Liabilities as Current or January 1, 2022 Non-current”
Note: Unless stated otherwise, the above New IFRSs are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after their respective effective dates.
- 1) Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture”
The amendments stipulate that, when the Company sells or contributes assets that constitute a business (as defined in IFRS 3) to an associate or joint venture, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized in full. Also, when the Company loses control of a subsidiary that contains a business but retains significant influence or joint control, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized in full.
Conversely, when the Company sells or contributes assets that do not constitute a business to an associate or joint venture, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized only to the extent of the Company’s interest as an unrelated investor in the associate or joint venture, i.e., the Company’s share of the gain or loss is eliminated. Also, when the Company loses control of a subsidiary that does not contain a business but retains significant influence or joint control over an associate or a joint venture, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized only to the extent of the Company’s interest as an unrelated investor in the associate or joint venture, i.e., the
- 10 -
Company’s share of the gain or loss is eliminated.
- 2) Amendments to IAS 1 “Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current”
The amendments clarify that for a liability to be classified as non-current, the Company shall assess whether it has the right at the end of the reporting period to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. If such rights are in existence at the end of the reporting period, the liability is classified as non-current regardless of whether the Company will exercise that right. The amendments also clarify that, if the right to defer settlement is subject to compliance with specified conditions, the Company must comply with those conditions at the end of the reporting period even if the lender does not test compliance until a later date.
The amendments stipulate that, for the purpose of liability classification, the aforementioned settlement refers to a transfer of cash, other economic resources or the Company’s own equity instruments to the counterparty that results in the extinguishment of the liability. However, if the terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by a transfer of the Company’s own equity instruments, and if such option is recognized separately as equity in accordance with IAS 32: Financial Instruments: Presentation, the aforementioned terms would not affect the classification of the liability.
Except for the above impact, as of the date the parent company only financial statements were authorized for issue, the Company is continuously assessing the possible impact that the application of other standards and interpretations will have on the Company’s financial position and financial performance, and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed.
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- a. Statement of compliance
The parent company only financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
- b. Basis of preparation
The parent company only financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value and net defined benefit liabilities which are measured 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); and
-
3) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
When preparing the parent company only financial statements, the Company account for subsidiaries and associates by using the equity method. In order to agree with the amount of net income, other comprehensive income and equity attributable to shareholders of the parent in the consolidated financial statements, the differences of the accounting treatment between the parent company only basis and the consolidated basis are adjusted under the heading of investments accounted for using equity method, share of profits of subsidiaries and associates and share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries and associates in the parent company only financial statements.
-

-
c. Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
Current assets include:
-
1) Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
2) Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting period; and
-
3) Cash and cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Current liabilities include:
-
1) Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
2) Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; and
-
3) Liabilities for which the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.
d. Foreign currencies
In preparing the parent company only financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at 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 retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and are not retranslated subsequently.
For the purpose of presenting parent company only financial statements, the functional currencies of the Company are translated into the presentation currency, the New Taiwan dollars, as follows: Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period; and income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting currency translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

e. Fuel inventory
Fuel inventory is the stock of fuel, which is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. The replacement cost is used to determine the net realizable value, as fuel inventory is for operations instead of sales. Inventories are recorded at the weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date.
- f. Investments in subsidiaries
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the Company.
The Company uses the equity method to account for its investments in subsidiaries. Under the equity method, investments in subsidiaries are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of those subsidiaries. The Company also recognizes the changes in the Company’s share of the equity of subsidiaries.
The Company assesses its investment for any impairment by comparing the carrying amount with the estimated recoverable amount as assessed based on the entire financial statements of the invested company. Impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases, the Company recognizes reversal of the impairment loss; the adjusted post-reversal carrying amount should not exceed the carrying amount that would have been recognized (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized in prior years. An impairment loss recognized on goodwill cannot be reversed in a subsequent period.
Profits or losses resulting from downstream transactions are eliminated in full in the parent company only financial statements. Profits and losses resulting from upstream transactions and transactions between subsidiaries are recognized in the parent company only financial statements only to the extent of interests in the subsidiaries that are not related to the Company.
g. Investments in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence and which is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture.
The Company uses the equity method to account for its investments in associates. Under the equity method, investments in associates are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of those associates. The Company also recognizes the changes in the Company’s share of the equity of associates.
When the Company subscribes for additional new shares of the associate at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment differs from the amount of the Company’s proportionate interest in the associate. The Company records such a difference as an adjustment to investments with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus - changes in capital surplus from investments in associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method. If the Company’s ownership interest is reduced due to the additional subscription of the new shares of the associate, the proportionate amount of the gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate is reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required had the investee directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus recognized from investments accounted for using the equity method is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings.
The entire carrying amount of the investment 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 that forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is
- 13 -
recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.
When a Company entity transacts with its associate, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate are recognized in the Company’ financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate that are not related to the Company.
- h. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.
Depreciation of transportation equipment is recognized on a straight-line basis. Depreciation of miscellaneous equipment is recognized on a fixed-percentage-of-declining-balance basis and each significant part is depreciated separately. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effects of any changes in estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.
On derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.
- i. Intangible assets
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. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful lives, residual values, and amortization methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in the estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.
On derecognition of an intangible asset, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.
- j. Impairment of tangible and intangible assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the coverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss.
When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the corresponding asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
- k. Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
- 14 -
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
1) Financial assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.
a) Measurement category
Financial assets are classified into the following categories: Financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at amortized cost and equity instruments at FVTOCI.
- i. Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when such a financial assets are mandatorily classified as at FVTPL, including investments in equity instruments which are not designated as at FVTOCI.
Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss does not incorporate any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 22.
- ii. Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost:
-
i) The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
ii) The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost, including cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables at amortized cost, other receivables and refundable deposits, are measured at amortized cost, which equals the gross carrying amount determined using the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.
Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset, except for:
-
i) Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, for which interest income is calculated by applying the credit adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset; and
-
ii) Financial assets that are not credit impaired on purchase or origination but have subsequently become credit impaired, for which interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets in subsequent reporting periods.
-
15 -
A financial asset is credit impaired when one or more of the following events have occurred:
-
i) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower;
-
ii) Breach of contract, such as a default;
-
iii) It is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or undergo a financial reorganization; or
-
iv) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.
Cash equivalents include time deposits, which are short-term and highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.
iii. Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI
On initial recognition, the Company may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation as at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.
Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the equity investments, instead, they will be transferred to retained earnings.
Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Company’s right to receive the dividends is established, unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
- b) Impairment of financial assets and contract assets
The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost and contract assets.
The Company always recognizes lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) for trade receivables and contract assets. For all other financial instruments, the Company recognizes lifetime ECLs when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If, on the other hand, the credit risk on the financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs.
Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Lifetime ECLs represent the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECLs represent the portion of lifetime ECLs that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
For internal credit risk management purposes, the Company determines that the following situations indicate that a financial asset is in default (without taking into account any collateral
- 16 -
held by the Company):
-
i) Internal or external information show that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors.
-
ii) When a financial asset is more than 365 days past due unless the Company has reasonable and corroborative information to support a more lagged default criterion.
The Company recognizes an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account.
- c) Derecognition of financial assets
The Company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when it transfers the financial asset 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 sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of an investment in an equity instrument at FVTOCI, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss, and the cumulative gain or loss which had been recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred directly to retained earnings, without recycling through profit or loss.
-
2) Financial liabilities
-
a) Subsequent measurement
Except financial liabilities at FVTPL, all financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liabilities are held for trading, and are stated at fair value, with any gain or loss arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss does not incorporate any interest or dividend paid on the financial liability. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 22.
- b) 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.
-
l. Revenue recognition
-
1) Revenue from the rendering of services
The Company identifies contracts with customers, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizes revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.
Revenue from rendering of services comes from the freight received from goods shipping and vessel chartering, and revenue from vessel management.
As the Company provides goods shipping, vessel chartering and vessel management services, the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company’s
- 17 -
performance. Consequently, the related revenue is recognized when services are rendered. The Company measures the progress of each voyage by the proportion of days sailed to the expected total voyage period. Payment for transportation services is not due from the customer until a certain period after the goods have completed loading and, therefore, a contract asset is recognized over the period in which the transportation services are performed. The contract asset is reclassified to trade receivables when billed. Vessel chartering and management revenue are recognized by reference to the stage of completion of the contract, which is the proportion of the time of services rendered to the total contract period.
- 2) Dividend and Interest income
Dividend income from investments is recognized when the shareholder’s right to receive payment has been established and provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.
m. Leasing
2019
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
As lessee, the Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of a lease, except for short-term leases and low-value asset leases accounted for applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms
2018
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of a lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
As lessee, operating lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basic over the lease term.
-
n. Employee benefits
-
1) Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related service.
- 2) Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as expenses when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.
Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) under the defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service cost (including current service cost), and net interest on the net defined benefit liabilities (assets) are recognized as employee benefits expense in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.
Net defined benefit liabilities (assets) represents the actual deficit (surplus) in the Company’s
- 18 -
defined benefit plan. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.
- 3) Other long-term employee benefits
Other long-term employee benefits are accounted for in the same way as the accounting required for defined benefit plans except that remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss.
- o. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
1) Current tax
According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax on unappropriated earnings is provided for in the year the shareholders approve to retain earnings.
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.
- 2) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences and unused loss carryforwards to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
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 the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liabilities are settled or the assets are realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. 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 end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
- 3) Current and deferred taxes for the year
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 also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
- 19 -
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimations and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised if the revisions affects only that period or in the period of the revisions and future periods if the revisions affects both current and future periods.
Critical Accounting Judgements
Revenue recognition
The Company assesses that its performance obligations are satisfied over time based on the conditions in the contract and related regulations. Freight revenue is recognized by reference to the stage of completion of the contract, which is the proportion of the actual days sailed to the expected total voyage duration agreed in the contract. If the actual voyage duration differs from that stated in the contract, the amount of revenue recognized might be affected. Management believes that the best estimate has been used to assess the stage of completion of contracts.
Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
The impairment of transportation was based on the recoverable amount of those assets, which is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal or value-in-use of those assets. Any changes in the market price or future cash flows will affect the recoverable amount of those assets and may lead to recognition of additional or reversal of impairment losses.

These investments in equity instruments are not held for trading. Instead, they are held for medium to long-term strategic purposes. Accordingly, the management elected to designate these investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI as they believe that recognizing short-term fluctuations in these investments’ fair value in profit or loss would not be consistent with the Company’s strategy of holding these investments for long-term purposes.
Refer to Note 24 for information relating to investments in financial assets at FVTOCI pledged as security.

9. TRADE RECEIVABLES
| At amortized cost Gross carrying amount Less: Allowance for impairment loss Gross carrying amount - related parties |
December 31 | December 31 | December 31 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 $ 7,890 - $ 7,890 $ 63,349 |
2018 | |||
| $ 7,495 - $ 7,495 $ 77,284 |
The Company receives freight charges that amount to 90% to 95% of the total contract price within 3 to 8 days from completion of loading, and settles demurrage with customer upon completion of each voyage period. The outstanding period of demurrage depends on progress of settlement, normally longer than the outstanding period of freight charge.
The Company uses publicly available financial information or its own trading records to continuously assess the credit ratings of its counterparties, and credit exposure is controlled through credit limits of counterparties. In addition, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade receivable at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate allowance is made for possible irrecoverable amounts.
The Company measures the loss allowance for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime ELCs. The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor’s current financial position, adjusted for general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate and an assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of economic conditions at the reporting date. As the Company’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision for loss allowance based on past due status is not further distinguished according to the Company’s different customer base.
The Company writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery, e.g. when the debtor has been placed under liquidation, or when the trade receivables are over 365 days past due, whichever occurs earlier. For trade receivables that have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in profit or loss.
The following table details the loss allowance of trade receivables based on the Company’s provision matrix.

15. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
a. 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, an entity makes monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.
b. Defined benefit plans
The defined benefit plan adopted by the Company in accordance with the Labor Standards Law is operated by the government of the ROC. 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 amounts equal to 5% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee’s name. Before the end of each year, the Company assesses the balance in the pension fund. If the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Company is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor (the “Bureau”); the Company has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.
The amounts included in the parent company only balance sheets in respect of the Company’s defined benefit plans were as follows:
| Present value of defined benefit obligation Fair value of plan assets Net defined benefit liabilities |
December 31 2019 2018 $ 204,319 $ 217,891 (80,774) (71,267) $ 123,545 $ 146,624 |

Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Law, the Company is exposed to the following risks:
-
1) Investment risk: The plan assets are invested in domestic and foreign equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets should not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
-
2) Interest risk: A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments.
-
3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants 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 significant assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations were as follows:
| Discount rate(s) Expected rate(s) of salary increase - ship crew Expected rate(s) of salary increase - staff |
December 31 |
|---|---|
| 2019 2018 0.625% 0.875% 1.500% 1.500% 3.000% 3.000% |
- 28 -
If possible reasonable change in each of the significant actuarial assumptions will occur and all other assumptions will remain constant, the present value of the defined benefit obligation would increase (decrease) as follows:
| Discount rate(s) 0.25% increase 0.25% decrease Expected rate(s) of salary increase 0.25% increase 0.25% decrease |

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

Note: 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).
The excess of merger recognized from the Company’s acquisition of China Fortune Marine Transport Corporation in 1993 was due to the excess of proceeds over the par value of the new shares issued to acquire China Fortune Marine Transport Corporation.
c. Retained earnings and dividend policy
Under the dividend policy as set forth in the amended Articles, where the Company made a profit in a fiscal year, after paying for taxes, the profit shall be first utilized for offsetting losses of previous years, if there is any remaining profit, 10% of the remaining profit shall be set aside as legal reserve, and after setting aside or reversing a special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings shall be used by the Company’s board of directors as the basis for proposing a distribution plan, which should be resolved in the shareholders’ meeting for the distribution of dividends and bonuses to shareholders.
Dividends distributed to shareholders are decided after consideration has been given to the business perspective of the Company, the life cycle of various products or service provided, capital requirement in the future and the effect of possible changes of tax laws. Dividends shall be distributed under the objective of maintaining a stable dividend policy. For issue of dividends, except to save for the purposes of improving the financial structure, reinvestments, production expansion or other capital expenditures in which capital is required, dividends distributed shall not be lower than 50% of net profit after tax deduction for offset of loses, legal reserve, and special reserve, and the cash dividend shall not be lower than 10% of shareholders’ bonus of that year.

Appropriation of earnings to the legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Company’s paid-in capital. The legal reserve may be used to offset deficits. 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 measures the loss allowance for contract assets at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. The contract assets will be transferred to trade receivables when the corresponding invoice is billed to the client, and the contract assets have substantially the same risk characteristics as the trade receivables for the same types of contracts. Therefore, the Company concluded that the expected loss rates for trade receivables can be applied to the contract assets. No impairment losses was recognized for contract assets in 2019 and 2018, respectively.
The changes in the balance of contract assets and contract liabilities primarily resulted from the timing difference between the Company’s performance and the respective customer’s payment. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the balance of contract liabilities was not material.

In July 2019, the President of the ROC announced the amendments to the Statute for Industrial Innovation, which stipulate that the amounts of unappropriated earnings in 2018 and thereafter that are reinvested in the construction or purchase of certain assets or technologies are allowed as deduction when computing the income tax on unappropriated earnings. The Company expects to apply to the regulation. As of the date on which the parent company only financial statements were authorized for issue, the possible impact is continuously assessed.
As the status of the 2020 appropriation of earnings is uncertain, the potential income tax consequences of the 2019 unappropriated earnings are not reliably determinable.

- b. The weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding (in thousands of shares) is as follows:
Weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the computation of basic earnings per share Effect of potentially dilutive ordinary shares Employee’s compensation Weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the computation of diluted earnings per share |
For the Year Ended December 31 | For the Year Ended December 31 | For the Year Ended December 31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 845,056 637 845,693 |
2018 845,056 543 845,599 |
If the Company offered to settle the compensation paid to employees in cash or shares, the Company assumed that the entire amount of the compensation would be settled in shares and the resulting potential shares were included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as the effect is dilutive. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the number of shares to be distributed to employees is resolved in the following year.
21. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Company will be able to continue as going concerns while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance.
The capital structure of the Company consists of net debt (borrowings offset by cash) and equity of the Company (comprising issued capital, reserves, retained earnings, and other equity).Key management personnel of the Company review the capital structure on a regular basis. As part of this review, the key management personnel consider the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. Based on recommendations of the key management personnel, in order to balance the overall capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, and/or the amount of new debt issued or existing debt redeemed.
The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

d. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company’s major financial instruments include equity investments, derivative financial instruments, trade receivables, trade payables and borrowings. The Company’s corporate treasury function provides services to the business, coordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Company through internal risk reports which analyze exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
The Company sought to minimize the effects of these risks by using derivative financial instruments to hedge risk exposures. The use of financial derivatives was governed by the Company’s policies approved by the board of directors, which provided written principles on foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of financial derivatives and non-derivative financial instruments, and the investment of excess liquidity. Compliance with policies and exposure limits was reviewed by the internal auditors on a continuous basis.
1) Market risk
The Company’s activities exposed it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (a) below) and interest rates (see (b) below). The Company entered into cross-currency swap contracts to mitigate the exchange rate risk and interest rates risk arising from the Company’s foreign currency denominated loans due to foreign operations.
There had been no change to the Company’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which these risks were managed and measured.
a) Foreign currency risk
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk arising from engagement in foreign-currency transactions, investments and borrowings. The Company used cross-currency swap contracts to hedge against adverse risks pertaining to exchange rates, maturing the terms of foreign currency denominated borrowings to maximize hedge effectiveness.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities exposed to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period are set out in Note 26.
- 38 -
Sensitivity analysis
The Company was mainly exposed to the USD.
The sensitivity analysis included outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and foreign currency denominated loans due to foreign operations, and adjusts their translation at the end of the reporting period for a 10% change in foreign currency rates. For a 10% strengthening of the New Taiwan dollar against the USD, the Company’s pre-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 would decrease by NT$715 thousand and increase by NT$181,901 thousand, respectively. For a 10% weakening of the New Taiwan dollar against the USD, there would be an equal and opposite impact on pre-tax profit and the balances above would be negative. This was mainly attributable to the exposure to the Company’s USD denominated bank loans.
Because the Company entered into cross-currency swap contracts and its’ profit and loss would offset with the Company’s translation of foreign currency denominated loans due to foreign operations, changes in exchange rates between the New Taiwan dollar and USD would not have a material impact on the profit and loss of the Company.
b) Interest rate risk
The Company was exposed to interest rate risk because entities in the Company borrowed funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is managed by the Company by maintaining an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate borrowings, and using cross-currency swap contracts. Hedging activities are evaluated regularly to align with interest rate views and defined risk appetite, ensuring the most cost-effective hedging strategies are applied.
The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rate risk at the end of the reporting period were as follows:
| Fair value interest rate risk Financial assets Financial liabilities Cash flow interest rate risk Financial assets Financial liabilities |
December 31 | December 31 |
|---|---|---|
| 2019 $ 59,389 13,598,970 7,730 10,532,000 |
2018 | |
| $ 30,000 14,762,456 6,244 10,859,900 |
The Company was exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to floating-rate bank borrowings. The Company aims to keep borrowings at fixed rates. In order to achieve this result, the Company entered into cross-currency swap contracts to hedge its exposures to changes in cash flow of the borrowings. The critical terms of these cross-currency swap contracts are similar to those of hedged borrowings. The Company’s cash flow interest rate risk was mainly concentrated in the fluctuation of LIBOR arising from the Company’s New Taiwan dollars and USD denominated borrowings.
The Company was also exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to fixed-rate bank borrowings. It is the Company’s policy to keep its borrowings at fixed rate of interests so as to minimize the cash flow interest rate risk.
- 39 -
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below were determined based on the Company’s exposure to interest rates for both derivatives and non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis was prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year.
If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Company’s pre-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 would decrease/increase by NT$52,621 thousand and NT$54,268 thousand, respectively, which was mainly attributable to the Company’s exposure to interest rates on its variable-rate bank borrowings.
c) Other price risk
The Company was exposed to equity price risk through its investments in equity securities. The Company manages this risk by maintaining a portfolio of investments with different risk levels. The Company’s equity price risk was mainly concentrated on equity instruments in Taiwan. Investments in equity securities are strategic investments made by the financial department of the Company.
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below were determined based on the exposure to equity price risks at the end of the reporting period.
If equity prices had been 10% higher/lower, pre-tax other comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 would increase/decrease by NT$325,234 thousand and NT$263,688 thousand, as a result of the changes in fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI.
2) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. As at the end of the reporting period, the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Company due to the failure of counterparties to discharge an obligation and financial guarantees provided by the Company could arise from the carrying amount of the respective recognized financial assets as stated in the parent company only balance sheets and the contingent liabilities would be generated if the financial guarantee is called upon.
The Company adopted a policy of credit risk management regarding operations. Risk assessment of counterparties takes into consideration the financial situation, credit rating by both external and internal parties, historical transaction records, current economic condition, and other factors that might affect the payment ability of the counterparty. This information is supplied by independent rating agencies where available and, if not available, the Company uses other publicly available financial information and its own trading records to rate its major customers.
The Company’s concentration of credit risk was related to the top five customers of the Company whose balances of trade receivables are among the top five. The Company’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored. When the counterparties are associates, the Company will consider them as of similar nature with the counterparties. In the years 2019 and 2018, the credit risk concentration was immaterial for any counterparty at any point in time.
- 40 -
3) Liquidity risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Company’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition, management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.
The Company relies on bank borrowings as a significant source of liquidity. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had available unutilized short-term bank loan facilities of NT$11,566,000 thousand and NT$7,519,038 thousand, respectively.
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, which has built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the Company’s short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, and continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows as well as matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
a) Liquidity and interest rate risk tables for non-derivative financial liabilities
The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities from the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay. The tables included both interest and principal cash flows. Specifically, bank loans with a repayment on demand clause were included in the earliest time band regardless of the probability of the banks choosing to exercise their rights. The maturity dates for other non-derivative financial liabilities were based on the agreed repayment dates.

Taking into account the Company’s financial position, management does not believe that it is probable that the banks will exercise their discretionary rights to demand immediate repayment.
The amount of floating interest rate instruments of the non-derivative financial assets and liabilities will vary due to the difference between the floating interest rate and the expected interest rate on the balance sheet dates.
