Independent Auditor's Report
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
UPC Technology Corporation,
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Company (the “Company”), which comprise the Parent Company only balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the Parent Company only 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 “Parent Company only financial statements”). In our opinion, the accompanying the Parent Company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the Parent Company only financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and its Parent Company only financial performance and its Parent Company only cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Audit and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Parent Company only financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China. We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Parent Company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Parent Company only
- 3 -
financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
The key audit matter of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 is described as follows:
Recognition of Revenue of Subsidiaries Accounted for Using the Equity Method
The share of profit or loss of the Company’s subsidiaries accounted for using the equity method mainly comes from the sales of plasticizers. Considering that the recognition of revenue has a significant impact on the financial statements, the authenticity of major subsidiary sales revenue from customers with significant growth and amounts was identified as a key audit matter for this year. In addition to evaluating and testing the relevant internal control systems for such operating revenue, checked the transaction records and supporting documents to ensure the occurrence of the transactions, and confirmed that the recognition of revenue was in compliance with IFRS. Please refer to Note 4 (12) of the Parent Company only financial statements for the accounting policies for revenue recognition.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the Parent Company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the Parent Company only financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Parent Company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern, and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance, including the audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Parent Company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when
- 4 -
it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Parent Company only financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Parent Company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error. Fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the Parent Company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Parent Company only financial statements, including the disclosures and whether or not the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the Parent Company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
-
5 -
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and, where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the Parent Company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partners on the audits resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Chien-Liang Liu and Wen-Chin Lin.

Note: Unless otherwise noted, the above new/revised/amended standards and interpretations take effective in their respective annual reporting periods beginning on or after their respective dates.
IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements”
IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”. The main changes in this standard include:
-
The statement of profit or loss should classify income and expenses in the operating, investing, financing, income taxes, and discontinued operations categories.
-
An entity must present totals and subtotals in the statement of profit or loss for operating profit or loss, profit or loss before financing and income taxes, and overall profit or loss.
-
Requirements for provision of guidance to enhance aggregation and disaggregation: The Company should identify assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses, losses, and cash flows in each transaction or other events, and classify and aggregate them based on shared characteristics so that the main line items presented in the financial statements share at least one similar characteristic. Items should be disaggregated based on characteristics that are not shared. The Company should label such items as “other” only if it cannot find a more informative title.
-
Increasing the disclosure of management-defined performance measures (MPMs): When the Company engages in public communications outside financial statements and communicates management’s view of a specific aspect of the financial performance of the entity as a whole, the Company should disclose information about its MPMs in a single note to the financial statements, including a description of how the MPM is measured, how the MPM is calculated, and a reconciliation between the MPM and the total or subtotal required by IFRS Accounting Standards, including the income tax effect and the effect on non-controlling interests for each item disclosed in the reconciliation.
In addition to the above impacts, by the time the release date of the Parent Company only financial statements was approved, the Company has continued to evaluate other impacts of the amendments to various standards and interpretations on its financial position and financial performance, and the relevant impacts will be disclosed when the evaluation is completed.

IV. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
- (I) Statement of compliance
The Parent Company only financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers. (II) Basis for preparation
Except for financial instruments measured at fair value and net defined benefit liabilities recognized as the present value of defined benefit obligations less the fair value of plan assets, the Parent Company only financial statements were prepared on a historical cost basis.
The fair value measurement is classified into three levels based on the observability and significance of relevant inputs:
-
Level 1 inputs: Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities on the measurement date.
-
Level 2 inputs: Inputs, other than quoted market prices within level 1 that are observable, either directly (i.e. prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) for assets or liabilities.
-
Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities.
When preparing its Parent Company only financial statements, the Company accounts for its investments in subsidiaries using the equity method. To ensure that the current year's profit or loss, other comprehensive income, and equity in these Parent Company only financial statements are the same as the current year's profit or loss, other comprehensive income, and equity attributable to the Company's owners in its consolidated financial statements, certain accounting treatment differences between the parent company only and consolidated bases are adjusted through “investments accounted for using the equity method”, “share of profit or loss of subsidiaries accounted for using the equity method”, “share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries accounted for using the equity method”, and related equity items.
-
(III) Criteria for classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities Current assets include:
-
Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
Assets expected to be realized 12 months after the balance sheet date; and
-
Cash (excluding assets restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date).
-
16 -
Current liabilities include:
-
Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the balance sheet date; and
-
Liabilities for which there is no substantive right on the balance sheet date to defer the repayment deadline to 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
When the Parent Company only financial statements of the Company were prepared, transactions in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency (i.e., foreign currencies) are recognized at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates.
Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate at each balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from the settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they occur.
Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates when the fair values were determined. Exchange differences arising from such translation are recognized in profit or loss, except for exchange differences arising from fair value changes that are recognized in other comprehensive income, which are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates and are not subsequently retranslated.
When preparing Parent Company only financial statements, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into NTD at the exchange rates prevailing at each balance sheet date. Except for significant fluctuations in exchange rates during the period, which are translated at the exchange rate on the transaction date, revenue and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period, and the resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.
-
(V)
-
Inventory
Inventories primarily include merchandise, raw materials, supplies, finished goods, semi-finished goods, and work-in-progress. Inventories are measured at the
- 17 -
(VI)
lower of cost or net realizable value. When comparing cost and net realizable value, individual items are used as the basis, except for inventories of the same category. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted-average method. Investment in subsidiaries
The Company accounts for its investment in subsidiaries using the equity method.
A subsidiary is an entity that the Company controls.
Under the equity method, investments are initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount after the acquisition date is increased or decreased according to the Company's share of the subsidiary's profit or loss, other comprehensive income, and profit distribution. In addition, changes in other equity of the subsidiary to which the Company is entitled are recognized in proportion to its ownership percentage.
When changes in the Company’s ownership interest in a subsidiary do not result in a loss of control, they are treated as equity transactions. The difference between the carrying amount of the investment and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.
When the Company's share of losses on a subsidiary equals or exceeds its interest in the subsidiary (including the carrying amount of the subsidiary under the equity method and other long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company's net investment in the subsidiary), losses continue to be recognized in proportion to its shareholding.
The excess of the acquisition cost over the Company's share of the net fair value of the subsidiary's identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date is recognized as goodwill, which is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized; the excess of the Company's share of the net fair value of the subsidiary's identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date over the acquisition cost is recognized as current income.
When control of a subsidiary is lost, the Company measures its remaining investment in the subsidiary at fair value on the date control is lost, and the difference between the fair value of the remaining investment and any disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investment on the date control is recognized in current profit or loss. In addition, all amounts recognized in other comprehensive
- 18 -
income related to the subsidiary are accounted for on the same basis as that required for the Company's direct disposal of related assets or liabilities.
Unrealized profits or losses from downstream transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated in the Parent Company only financial statements. Profits or losses arising from upstream and lateral transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries are recognized in the Parent Company only financial statements only to the extent that they are unrelated to the Company's equity in the subsidiaries.
(VII) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recognized at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Property, plant and equipment under construction are recognized at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes professional service fees and borrowing costs that meet the capitalization criteria. These assets are classified into the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment and begin to be depreciated when they are completed and ready for intended use.
Land held for own use is not depreciated.
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis. Each significant component is depreciated separately. The Company reviews the estimated useful lives, residual values, and depreciation methods at least at the end of each annual reporting period, and the effects of changes in accounting estimates are applied prospectively.
Upon derecognition of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.
(VIII) Computer software
Computer software is measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. The Company amortizes computer software using the straight-line method and reviews the estimated useful lives, residual values, and amortization methods at least at the end of each annual reporting period. The residual value of computer software with finite useful lives is estimated to be zero, unless the Company expects to dispose of the software before the end of its economic life. The effects of changes in accounting estimates are treated prospectively.
- 19 -
Computer software is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of computer software is the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and is recognized in profit or loss.
(IX) Impairment of property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, and intangible assets
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, and intangible assets may be impaired. If any indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Corporate assets are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units on a reasonable and consistent basis.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an individual asset or cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, and the impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to its revised recoverable amount, but the increased carrying amount shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized in prior years (less amortization or depreciation). The reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
(X) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the balance sheet when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Upon initial recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities, if the financial asset or financial liability is not measured at FVTPL, it is measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of the financial asset or financial liability. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets or financial liabilities measured at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
-
Financial assets
-
20 -
The Company recognizes and derecognizes regular purchases and sales of financial assets on the trade date.
- (1) Measurement categories
The Company’s financial assets are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost and equity instrument investments at FVTOCI.
- A. Financial assets measured at amortized cost
The Company classifies financial assets as measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:
-
a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
b. The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments for principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets measured at amortized cost (including cash, notes receivable, trade receivable, other receivables, and guarantee deposits paid) are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Any foreign exchange gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss.
Interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate by the gross carrying amount of the financial asset, except in the following two cases:
-
a. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, interest income is calculated by multiplying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate by the amortized cost of the financial asset.
-
b. For financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired but subsequently become credit-impaired, interest income is calculated by multiplying the effective interest rate by the amortized cost of the financial asset from the next reporting period after the credit impairment.
Credit-impaired financial assets refer to financial assets, of which issuers or debtors have experienced significant financial difficulties, defaulted, or are likely to file for bankruptcy or other
- 21 -
financial reorganization, or where the active market for the financial assets has disappeared due to financial difficulties.
B. Equity instrument investments measured at FVTOCI
At initial recognition, the Company may make an irrevocable election to designate equity instrument investments that are neither held for trading nor contingent consideration recognized in a business combination as measured at FVTOCI.
Equity instrument investments measured at FVTOCI are measured at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value reported in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. Upon disposal of the investment, accumulated gains or losses are transferred directly to retained earnings and are not reclassified to profit or loss.
Dividends from equity instrument investments measured at FVTOCI are recognized in profit or loss when the Company’s right to receive payment is established, unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
(2)
Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses the impairment losses of financial assets measured at amortized cost (including trade receivable) at each balance sheet date based on expected credit losses.
Trade receivables are recognized with a loss allowance based on lifetime expected credit losses. Other financial assets are first assessed for significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition. If there has been no significant increase, a loss allowance is recognized based on 12-month expected credit losses. If there has been a significant increase, a loss allowance is recognized based on lifetime expected credit losses.
Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses, with the risk of default occurring as the weights 12-month expected credit losses represent the expected credit losses that result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date, and lifetime expected credit losses represent the expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.
- 22 -
For internal credit risk management purposes, the Company determines that the following conditions represent a default of a financial asset, without considering collateral held:
-
A. There is internal or external information indicating that the debtor is unlikely to pay its obligations.
-
B. There are past due events, unless there is reasonable and supportable information indicating that a delayed default criterion is more
appropriate.
Impairment losses for all financial assets are recognized by reducing their carrying amounts through allowance accounts, except for impairment losses on debt instrument investments measured at FVTOCI, which are recognized in other comprehensive income without reducing their carrying amounts.
(3) Derecognition of financial assets
The Company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flow from the financial asset expire or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred to another entity.
Upon derecognition of a financial asset measured at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration received is recognized in profit or loss. Upon derecognition of a debt instrument investment measured at FVTOCI in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received plus any cumulative gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss. Upon derecognition of an equity instrument investment measured at FVTOCI in its entirety, accumulated gains or losses are transferred directly to retained earnings and are not reclassified to profit or loss.
2. Equity Instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as financial liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of financial liabilities and equity instruments.
- 23 -
Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the amount of proceeds received, net of direct issuance costs.
Repurchased equity instruments of the Company itself are recognized and deducted within equity. Purchases, sales, issuances, or cancellations of the Company's own equity instruments are not recognized in profit or loss. 3. Financial liabilities
- (1) Subsequent measurement
All financial liabilities of the Company are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
- (2) Derecognition of financial liabilities
Upon derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between its carrying amount and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss.
(XI) Provisions
The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties of the obligation. Provisions are measured at the present value of the estimated cash flows required to settle the obligation.
- (XII) Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in a contract with a customer, after allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation.
Revenue from sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is derived from the sale of petrochemical products. Since the customer has the right to determine the price and use of the goods and bears the primary responsibility for resale and the risk of obsolescence when the petrochemical products arrive at the customer's designated location, the Company recognizes revenue and trade receivable at that point in time.
- 24 -
(XIII) Leases
The Company assesses at the inception of a contract whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
- The Company as lessor
A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. Lease negotiations with lessees are accounted for as a new lease from the effective date of the lease modification.
Under operating leases, lease payments, and net of lease incentives, are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the relevant lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the underlying asset and recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Contingent rents that are not based on an index or rate are recognized as revenue in the period in which they are incurred.
The Company as lessee
Except for lease payments for low-value asset leases and short-term leases, which are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized on the lease commencement date for all other leases.
Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which includes the initial measurement amount of the lease liability, lease payments paid before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, initial direct costs, and estimated costs of restoring the underlying asset. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, adjusted for remeasurements of the lease liability. Right-of-use assets are presented separately in the parent company only balance sheet.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis from the
commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life or the end of the lease term.
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of lease payments, which include fixed payments, substantively fixed payments, and variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate. Lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily
- 25 -
determinable. If that rate is not readily determinable, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used.
Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, and interest expense is recognized over the lease term. If there is a change in future lease payments due to a change in the lease term or an index or rate used to determine lease payments, the Company remeasures the lease liability and adjusts the right-of-use asset accordingly. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero, any remaining remeasurement amount is recognized in profit or loss. For lease modifications that are not treated as separate leases, remeasurements of lease liabilities due to a reduction in the lease scope reduce the right-of-use asset, and gains or losses on partial or full lease termination are recognized. Remeasurements of lease liabilities due to other modifications adjust the right-of-use asset. Lease liabilities are presented separately in the parent company only balance sheet.
(XIV) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction, or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset until substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are complete.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings prior to their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
All other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
(XV) Employee benefits
1. Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for short-term employee benefits are measured at the
-
undiscounted amounts expected to be paid in exchange for employee services.
-
- Post-employment benefits
Pension costs for defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an expense as employees provide services.
Defined benefit costs for defined benefit pension plans, including service costs, net interest, and remeasurements, are actuarially determined using the
- 26 -
projected unit credit method. Service costs, including current service costs, and net interest on the net defined benefit liability are recognized as employee benefit expenses when they occur. Remeasurements, including actuarial gains and losses and returns on plan assets excluding interest, are recognized in other comprehensive income and included in retained earnings when they occur, and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
The net defined benefit liability represents the shortfall in contributions to defined benefit pension plans.
- Other long-term employee benefits
The accounting treatment for other long-term employee benefits is the same as that for defined benefit pension plans, except that the related remeasurements are recognized in profit or loss.
- (XVI) Share-based payment agreements
Equity-settled share-based payment arrangements are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date and the best estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest, with a corresponding adjustment to capital surplus - employee stock options. If the equity instruments vest immediately on the grant date, the expense is recognized in full on the grant date. For transfers of treasury shares to employees, the grant date is the date the employees are notified.
- (XVII) Income taxes
Income tax expense is the sum of current income tax and deferred income tax.
- Current income tax
The Company determines current income (loss) in accordance with the regulations promulgated by the Republic of China and calculates the income tax payable (recoverable) accordingly.
The additional income tax on undistributed earnings calculated in accordance with the Income Tax Act of the Republic of China is recognized in the year of the shareholders' meeting resolution.
Adjustments to prior year income tax payable are included in current income tax.
- 27 -
2. Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is calculated based on temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases used for calculating taxable income.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards can be utilized.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences associated with such investments only to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized and are expected to reverse 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 profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are also reviewed at each balance sheet date and increased to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by 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.
- Current and deferred income tax
Current and deferred income tax are recognized in profit or loss, except for those related to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly
- 28 -
in equity, in which case the current and deferred income tax are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
V. Major Sources of Critical Accounting Judgments, Estimates, and Assumptions Uncertainty
In adopting accounting policies, the Company’s management is required to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions based on historical experience and other relevant factors when relevant information is not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The Company’s management continues to review its estimates and underlying assumptions, including the potential impact of significant accounting estimates on cash flow projections, growth rates, discount rates, and profitability.
As for the accounting policies, estimates, and underlying assumptions adopted, based on management's assessment, there are no significant accounting judgments, estimates, or assumptions with significant uncertainty.

Trade receivables
The average credit period for the Company’s sales of goods is 30 days. Before accepting new customers, the Company evaluates the credit quality of potential customers and sets credit limits through internal credit and sales management departments. Customers' credit limits and ratings are reviewed semi-annually.
To mitigate credit risk, management has assigned a dedicated team to determine credit limits, approve credit, and implement other monitoring procedures to ensure that appropriate actions are taken to recover overdue receivables. Additionally, the Company individually reviews the recoverable amounts of receivables at the balance sheet date to ensure that appropriate impairment losses are recognized for unrecoverable receivables. Accordingly, management believes that the Company’s credit risk has been significantly reduced.
The Company recognizes the loss allowance for receivables based on lifetime expected credit losses. Lifetime expected credit losses are determined based on the customer's past default records, current financial position, and industry economic conditions, with expected credit loss ratios set for different customer credit ratings of receivables.
If there is evidence that a counterparty is facing significant financial difficulties and the Company cannot reasonably expect to recover the amount, e.g., when the counterparty is undergoing liquidation or the debt is overdue for more than one year, the Company recognizes a 100% allowance for doubtful accounts for receivables overdue
- 30 -
for more than one year. However, collection activities continue, and any amounts recovered from collection are recognized in profit or loss.
The Company measures the loss allowance for receivables using a provision matrix

The employee benefits provision is the estimated provision for employee pension calculated according to the Company’s employee pension regulations. The present value of this long-term employee benefit obligation is calculated by a qualified actuary at each balance sheet date.
XIX. Post-employment benefit plans
(I) Defined contribution plans
The Company adopts the pension system of the Labor Pension Act, which is a government-managed defined contribution pension plan. The Company contributes 6% of employees' monthly salaries to their individual accounts at the Bureau of Labor Insurance.
(II) Defined benefit plans
The Company's pension system under the “Labor Standards Act” is a government-managed defined benefit pension plan. Employee pension benefits are calculated based on years of service and the average salary of the six months prior to approved retirement. The Company monthly contributes 2% of employees' total monthly salaries to an employee retirement fund, which is deposited in a special account at the Bank of Taiwan in the name of the Supervisory Committee of Labor Retirement Reserve. Before the end of the year, if the estimated balance of the special account is insufficient to pay the estimated pension benefits for employees who are expected to meet the retirement conditions in the following year, the difference will be contributed in one lump sum before the end of March of the following year. The special account is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor, and the Company has no right to influence the investment management strategy.
The amounts of the defined benefit plans included in the parent company’s only balance sheet are as follows:

deposits through self-management and entrusted management. However, the amount of income allocated to the Company’s plan assets is calculated based on a yield not lower than the local bank's two-year deposit interest rate.
-
Interest rate risk: A decrease in the interest rate of government bonds or corporate bonds will increase the present value of defined benefit obligations, but the return on debt investments in plan assets will also increase. Such bonds have a partial offsetting effect on net defined benefit liabilities.
-
Salary risk: The present value of defined benefit obligations is calculated with reference to the future salaries of plan members. Therefore, an increase in plan members' salaries will increase the present value of defined benefit obligations.
The present value of the Company’s defined benefit obligations is calculated by
a qualified actuary. The significant assumptions at the measurement date are as follows:
| follows: | ||
|---|---|---|
| Discount rate Expected rate of salary increase |
December 31,2024 1.375% 3.000% |
December 31,2023 |
| 1.250% 3.000% |
If significant actuarial assumptions change reasonably and plausibly, the amounts by which the present value of defined benefit obligations would increase (decrease) under the condition that all other assumptions remain unchanged are as follows:
| Discount rate Increase by 0.25% Decrease by 0.25% Expected rate of salary increase Increase by 0.25% Decrease by 0.25% |
December 31,2024 ($ 6,150) $ 6,300 $ 6,099 ($ 5,984) |

|---|---|---|---|
| ( ( |
( ( |
$ 7,193) $ 7,369 $ 7,128 $ 6,995) |
Because actuarial assumptions may be correlated, it is unlikely that only a single
assumption will change. Therefore, the above sensitivity analysis may not reflect the actual changes in the present value of defined benefit obligations.

Note: This type of capital surplus can be used to offset a deficit and, when there are no deficit, to issue cash dividends or capitalize, provided that the amount capitalized each year is limited to a certain percentage of the paid-in capital.
- 41 -
(III) Retained earnings and dividend policy
According to the Company's Articles of Incorporation regarding the earnings distribution policy, after paying taxes and offsetting prior years' accumulated losses from the current year's earnings, 10% should first be set aside as legal reserve and appropriated or reversed as special reserve according to relevant regulations. The Company may then appropriate or reverse a certain amount as special reserve according to the relevant regulations. The residual earnings, plus the accumulated undistributed earnings, may be distributed to shareholders according to the distribution plan proposed by the Board of Directors. When the distribution is made in the form of new shares, the distribution proposal shall be submitted to the shareholders' meeting for resolution before distribution. When the distribution is made in cash, the Board of Directors shall be authorized to resolve the distribution by a super majority vote and report it to the shareholders' meeting.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation regarding the distribution of employee and director compensation are described in Note 21(7), Employee and director compensation.
The legal reserve shall be appropriated until its balance reaches the total paid-in capital. The legal reserve may be used to offset a deficit. When there are no deficits, the portion of the legal reserve exceeding 25% of the total paid-in capital may be capitalized or distributed as cash dividends. The Board of Directors is also authorized to make a supermajority resolution to distribute all or part of the aforementioned legal reserve and capital surplus in cash and report to the shareholders' meeting.
The Company's earnings distribution plans for 2023 and 2022 are as follows:
| Legal reserve Cash dividends Cash dividend per share (NT$) |
2023 $ - $ 265,511 $ 0.2 |
2022 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $ - $ 263,583 $ 0.2 |
The above cash dividends were resolved by the Board of Directors on March 6, 2024 and March 6, 2023, respectively.
The Company's Board of Directors resolved on March 7, 2025, to distribute cash dividends of NT$199,412 thousand from capital surplus, at NT$0.15 per share, after the shareholders' meeting approves the proposal to offset losses with the legal reserve for 2024 on May 28, 2025.
(IV) Special reserve

The Company issued 40,000 units of employee stock options on August 15, 2019, with each unit entitling the holder to purchase one thousand ordinary shares. The grant recipients include employees of the Company and its subsidiaries who meet certain conditions. The term of the stock options is six years, and the holders can exercise 50%, 75%, and 100% of the options after two, three, and four years from the issuance date, respectively.

The Company calculated the fair value of the employee stock options granted on August 15, 2019, which will vest in installments (two, three, and four years from the issuance date), based on the grant date. The compensation cost recognized in 2023 was NT$3,782 thousand.
Note: The exercise price is adjusted according to the formula specified in the issuance regulations.
XXV. Capital risk management
The Company manages capital to ensure that it can continue as a going concern by optimizing the balance between debt and total assets to maximize shareholder returns. There is no expected significant change in the short term based on the Company’s overall strategy.
The Company’s senior management reviews the Company’s capital structure quarterly, taking into account the cost of each type of capital and related risks. Based on senior management’s suggestions, the Company will balance its overall capital structure through dividend policies and the issuance of new debt or repayment of old debt.
The Company reviews its capital structure and verifies its components based on the financial information of the consolidated financial statements. Please refer to the consolidated financial statements for relevant information.

- (IV) Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company’s primary financial instruments are equity investments, receivables, payables, and borrowings. The Company’s financial management department provides services to various business units, coordinating domestic and international financial market operations. It monitors and manages financial risks related to the Company’s operations through internal risk reports that analyze exposures based on risk levels and scope. These risks include market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, and other price risk), credit risk, and liquidity risk.
1. Market risk
The Company’s operating activities expose it to foreign exchange rate change risk and interest rate change risk.
There have been no changes in the Company’s market risk exposures related to financial instruments or in the methods used to manage and measure these exposures.
(1) Foreign exchange risk
The Company engages in foreign currency-denominated sales and purchase transactions, resulting in exposure to foreign exchange risk.
- 55 -
Approximately 45% of the Company’s sales and 90% of its costs are denominated in non-functional currencies.
Please refer to Note 30 for the carrying amounts of monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies as of the balance sheet date.
Sensitivity analysis
The Company is primarily affected by fluctuations in the US dollar (USD) exchange rate.
The following table shows the Company's sensitivity analysis when the NTD (functional currency) increases and decreases by 3% against relevant foreign currencies. The 3% sensitivity rate is used for reporting foreign exchange risk to senior management and represents
management's assessment of the reasonably possible range of foreign exchange rate changes. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency monetary items with their year-end translation by a 3% change in exchange rates adjusted.
Positive numbers in the table below indicate the decrease in pre-tax net loss when the NTD (functional currency) appreciates by 3% against relevant currencies; the impact on pre-tax net loss when the NTD depreciates by 3% against relevant foreign currencies would be the same amount but negative.
| amount but negative. | ||
|---|---|---|
| Profit or loss | Impact of USD | |
| 2024 $ 6,524 |
2023 | |
| $ 15,058 |
The above impacts mainly arise from the USD-denominated receivables and payables outstanding as of the balance sheet date.
The Company's sensitivity to exchange rates has decreased compared to the previous year, mainly due to a decrease in period-end USD payables, resulting in a decrease in net foreign-currency liabilities. (2) Interest rate risk
The Company’s interest rate exposure arises from borrowing funds at both fixed and floating rates. The Company periodically evaluates whether to use hedging instruments to align its interest rate views with
- 56 -
established risk appetite, ensuring the most cost-effective hedging strategy.
The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities exposed to interest rate risk at the balance sheet date are as follows:
Fair value interest rate risk - Financial liabilities Cash flow interest rate risk - Financial liabilities |
December 31,2024 $ 13,248,220 1,900,000 |
December 31,2023 |
|---|---|---|
| $ 13,318,563 1,900,000 |
The Company is exposed to fair value interest rate risk due to its fixed-rate bank borrowings and bonds payable. The Company holds floating-rate borrowings as the target to mitigate fair value interest rate risk.
The Company is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk due to its floating-rate bank borrowings. These situations align with the Company's policy of maintaining a certain level of floating-rate borrowings to mitigate fair value interest rate risk.
Sensitivity analysis
The following sensitivity analysis is determined based on the interest rate exposures of non-derivative instruments at the balance sheet date. For floating-rate liabilities, the analysis assumes that the outstanding liabilities at the balance sheet date were outstanding throughout the reporting period. The change rate used for reporting interest rates to senior management is an increase or decrease of 50 basis points, representing management's assessment of the reasonably possible range of interest rate changes.
If interest rates increase/decrease by 50 basis points, the Company’s pre-tax net loss for both 2024 and 2023 would increase/decrease by NT$9,500 thousand, assuming all other variables remain constant.
The Company's sensitivity to interest rates has not changed compared to the previous year, mainly because the amount of floating-rate borrowings is the same this year.
- 57 -
(3) Other price risks
The Company is exposed to equity price risk due to equity security investments. These equity investments are not held for trading but are strategic investments, and the Company does not actively trade them. The Company’s equity price risk is concentrated in domestic strategic equity instrument investments.
Sensitivity analysis
The following sensitivity analysis is based on the equity price exposures at the balance sheet date.
If equity prices increase/decrease by 5%, the after-tax other comprehensive income for 2024 and 2023 would increase/decrease by NT$779,013 thousand and NT$738,727 thousand, respectively, due to changes in the fair value of financial assets measured at FVTOCI.
The Company’s sensitivity to price risk has increased compared to the same period last year, primarily due to an increase in the market value of equity securities investments in the current period.
2.
Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss caused by a counterparty's failure to fulfill its contractual obligations. As of the balance sheet date, the maximum credit risk exposure from the counterparty’s default, which could result in financial loss, is primarily from the carrying amounts of financial assets recognized in the parent company only balance sheet.
The Company’s policy is to transact only with reputable counterparties. Before accepting new customers, the Company assesses the credit quality of potential customers and sets credit limits through internal credit checks and relevant sales management departments. Customer credit limits and ratings are reviewed twice a year.
Additionally, the Company individually reviews the recoverable amounts of receivables at the balance sheet date to ensure that appropriate impairment losses are recognized for unrecoverable receivables.
The Company’s trade receivables are from a large number of customers, and the Company has no significant credit exposure to any single counterparty or group of counterparties with similar characteristics. In 2024 and 2023, the
- 58 -
Company's credit risk concentration for any individual customer did not exceed 10% of total monetary assets.
The Company's credit risk by geographic region is primarily concentrated in Taiwan, accounting for approximately 63% and 36% of total trade receivable as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
- Liquidity risk
The Company manages and maintains sufficient cash to support operations and mitigates the impact of cash flow fluctuations. The Company’s management monitors the use of bank financing limits and ensures compliance with loan agreement terms.
Bank borrowings are a significant source of liquidity for the Company. The Company’s unused financing limits as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, are disclosed in the (2) Financing limits section below.
(1) Liquidity and interest rate risk table for non-derivative financial liabilities The remaining contractual maturity analysis for non-derivative financial liabilities is prepared based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities, based on the earliest date the Company could be required to repay. Therefore, bank borrowings that the Company could be required to repay immediately are included in the earliest period in the table, regardless of the probability of the bank immediately exercising this right. The maturity analysis of other non-derivative financial liabilities is prepared based on the agreed repayment dates.
