III. Future development strategy of the Company
In recent years, the Company has continued to provide customers with high-quality products; comprehensively improved the process level and energy in design, process, quality control and testing; and continued to achieve the goal of high growth and diversified development of product lines. At the same time, we will continue to deepen our existing product lines and customers, expand service levels, and be customer-oriented and close to market leaders. We can thus provide customers with a variety of products and services while taking advantage of economies of scale in production. Today, the development of network and digitalization has far exceeded prior visions of the structure of the digital age. It is not only mobile applications that have become the main media products for public information, services, and transactions. In terms of living, popular requirements for the quality of life and digital home appliances can provide more personalized and precise services. In respect to driving, there is safer traffic quality through the Internet of Vehicles to communicate and exchange information between owners, vehicles, and traffic systems to provide a safer and more comfortable experience. Above, we can see the blueprints of the future world under development and the Company is committed to working closely with customers in the relevant industrial chains whether in automotive electronics, medical care, or smart homes, to provide more services and high-end products.
In terms of operations management, the Group will uphold the principle of prudent and pragmatic operations to train and reserve technical, business and management talent over the long term to strengthen human capital, cultivate the Company's development potential, and continue to conduct product research and development to meet future product demand. In the future, we will also strengthen the market ties between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Southeast Asia. We shall coordinate production capacity to fully grasp market changes and needs for the sake of providing all-round customer satisfaction and trust so that we can increase market share among clients. We shall continue to strengthen project management capabilities and improve project management quality and human resource utilization efficiency as we strive for robust and large-scale long-term service customers, thereby improving the quality of earnings to create more fruitful and stable operating results. In addition to actively developing new products and providing integrated services, the Group shall also improve operational efficiency and personnel productivity through the integration of information systems. Furthermore, the resources of the Group's reinvested companies can be integrated to maximize the benefits of the Group.
IV. Impact of external competitive environment, regulatory environment, and overall business environment:
In recent years, as the world experienced many negative impacts, changes in product preferences among end consumers for products have made market competition more intense. In addition to raw material prices and international exchange rate fluctuations, the acquisition of labor and cost control have to be appropriate for the opportunity to maintain an advantageous profit. Due to rising wage costs in China and the rise of red supply chains, the domestic connector industry
began to move production lines to emerging countries in Southeast Asia. Some peers with more capital and technology advantages expanded the deployment of production line automation and imported more automation equipment to reduce operating costs. The Group will continue to deploy production bases in Southeast Asia, expand our economies of scale, strengthen the operation of automated equipment and of upstream and downstream integration, and improve production efficiency. We shall do so in order to reduce overall costs, make production quality more reliable, and improve customer trust and dependence. In addition, we shall strengthen the development of niche products and continue to develop new products, expanding the market for high value-added products and improving product competitiveness.
We consider ourselves to be the best supplier of connection harnesses. The products we provide are important components of electronic products and the basic backbone structure of information systems. As consumer terminal products and digital services continue to develop, the application scope of wire harness products and information system services is also becoming increasingly extensive. Welltend's management team has been deeply involved in the electronics industry for many years. We have profound production management experience and the operating performance of a multinational enterprise, and have a timely grasp of market trends, expand new application areas. Although there are still many uncertainties in the economic environment and industries across all countries, we will continue to improve quality, reduce costs, cultivate talent, and increase per capita output value. We shall thus grow and thrive on a stable foundation, continuously expanding to new customers and new markets, strengthening new product development capabilities, and improving our market acumen to fully grasp the development trends of new products. Looking to the future, the Company integrates ESG concepts into corporate operations, upholds professional knowledge, teamwork, adheres to integrity, provides good services and technology, attaches great importance to the protection of customers, society, the environment and employees, pursues performance while implementing sustainable development. We believe that in the new year, the Group's management team must be able to operate with a good performance to repay the trust and investment of all our shareholders. Finally, I would like to wish you all good health and all the best.

| Item | Distribution |
|---|---|
| 1. Describe the monitoring and governance of climate-related risks and opportunities by the board of directors and the management. | Welltend Technology has established a sustainable development promotion team from the Chair's Office, with the head of the General Administration Office as the management representative to establish a team to operate cross-department, implement sustainable management, and be responsible for the annual ESG plan and supervision of ESG implementation effectiveness, including evaluation. It manages and executes actions on climate change opportunities and risks, and reviews each set of goals and plans from time to time, including identifying operational risks, formulating corresponding preventive management measures, and reporting the operation results in the management meeting. |
| 2. Describe how the identified climate risks and opportunities affect the Company's business operations, strategies, and finance (for short-term, medium-term, and long-term). | The identification of short, medium, and long-term risks and opportunities of climate change by Welltend Technology: |
| - Risks | |
| 1. Short-term: Including greenhouse gas emission regulations, severe typhoon attacks, floods, abnormal temperature rises and other extreme climate disasters, changes in natural resources status, and rising raw material costs. | |
| 2. Mid-term: The increase in the cost of energy acquisition directly affects the operation of Welltend Technology. The upstream of the value chain will affect the supply of raw materials and contingency strategies. Downstream, it will affect the stability of shipments, safety stock allocation, and the cost of transitioning to a low-carbon economy. | |
| 3. Long-term: Fuel tax, energy tax, Carbon fee or carbon tax, trend of net zero emissions, long-term difficulty in acquiring renewable energy. | |
| - Opportunity | |
| 1. Short-term: Develop new products and circular economy innovations for raw materials, improve natural disaster response mechanisms, and reduce water consumption. | |
| 2. Mid-term: Adopt more efficient production and distribution processes, continue |
- 92 -
| | to track the energy-saving and low-carbon development trend of the connector industry, and promote the ISO 14064-1 greenhouse gas inventory of global operating locations.

| --- | --- |
| 3.Describe the financial impacts of extreme climate events and transformational actions. | Regulations and changes in the energy structure will mainly result in higher energy costs, greenhouse gas emissions costs, related labor costs, related investment expenses, legal compliance and goodwill maintenance costs, and cause financial impacts such as existing products failing to comply with regulations or standards, being replaced or eliminated, etc. On the other hand, the impacts of climate events such as extreme climate disasters range from the direct operation aspects such as shortage of energy resources, equipment damage, and shortage of human resources to the stable supply of goods and freight along the value chain. |
| 4. Describe how climate risk identification, assessment, and management processes are integrated into the overall risk management system. | In order to properly manage the risks associated with extreme weather events and the transition to a low-carbon economy, the Company incorporates the risks of climate change into operational decisions, identifies and manages risks, and at the same time faces the crises of global warming and resource depletion, and fully responds to the trend of energy conservation and carbon reduction to carry out mitigation and adaptation actions.
The identification, evaluation, and management process are as follows:
1. Refer to the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and select the risks and opportunities arising from climate change.
2. Categorize risks and opportunities and identify the impact over time.
3. Assess the extent of the impact and the likelihood of occurrence.
4. Analyze the financial impact of the identified risks and opportunities on the Company.
5. Formulate adjustment measures in response to occurrence of risks and opportunities. |
| 5. If scenario analysis is used to assess the resilience to climate change risks, the used scenarios, | Rising costs of raw materials - Climate change, including the implementation of a carbon tax on a trial basis in the European Union in 2023 and the amendments to |
- 93 -
| parameters, assumptions, analysis factors, and main financial impacts shall be described. | the Climate Change Response Act in Taiwan, may result in higher production costs of raw materials and transportation costs, which will affect operations.
The response plan is designed to reduce the use of raw materials, improve efficiency, strengthen the ratio of local procurement in the supply chain, and reduce transportation costs.
Extreme weather - There is an increase in extreme weather events such as severe typhoons and floods that disrupt the supply chain and result in inability to deliver goods in time, resulting in loss of revenue.
Policies and regulations - Restricting any impacts that may contribute to the adverse effects of climate change, which may lead to an increase in the Company's penalty litigation cases and an increase in operating costs.
At this stage, the Company is not a high-carbon emission industry, so the impact on the overall operation does not have a short-term impact. Considering that the Group is expected to complete its consolidated greenhouse gas inventory in 2027, it is also evaluating energy management and setting carbon reduction targets.
Company reputation - Failure to respond immediately to environmental issues of concern for stakeholders affects the Company's image and may result in decreased revenue.
Technology risk - Support low-carbon and high-efficiency production and distribution processes, resulting in the need to switch to low-carbon materials and renewable energy, which may lead to an increase in operating costs. |

A. Most production processes must rely on a substantial amount of labor, and high labor costs result in increased operating costs.
Countermeasures: To the extent permitted by transportation conditions, we shall carefully assess the investment environment and labor levels in Southeast Asia and gradually shift investment to lower wage regions for production work requiring a large amount of human resources.
B. Peer competition is becoming increasingly fierce as electronic product cycles become ever shorter; and in recent years, manufacturers across industries have more often adopted the competitive strategy of price-cutting and are turning to lower prices among component suppliers to reduce manufacturing costs. This compresses the latter's profit margins and forces them to reduce their own costs even as they must still maintain their product quality.
Countermeasures: We make good use of automated production equipment and processes, increasing productivity to reduce labor costs; we strengthen employee on-the-job training to make colleagues more specialized; we strengthen production and sales coordination and management capabilities while reducing inventories; and we improve shipping efficiency and product quality to maintain customer satisfaction.
C. Market price competition is fierce and there are many manufacturers engaged in connector manufacturing at present. Price-cutting competition in the same industry has reduced component profit margins and earnings are getting slimmer.
Countermeasures: We segment the market with diversified products or high value-added products; and for raw materials, labor, manufacturing costs and other costs, we evaluate and make improvements to maintain competitiveness.
D. The Company's export ratio is high due to the interference of many uncertain factors in the international economy. Therefore, exchange rate risk has a considerable impact on the Company's operations.
Countermeasures: We receive professional consulting services provided by correspondent banks and external professionals and avoid exchange rate risk when the exchange rate is relatively volatile. Relevant personnel of the Company are also in close contact with bank professionals at all times while continually monitoring international financial conditions and exchange rate developments to determine more favorable exchange timing.

(III) Estimated cash flow analysis:

IV. Impact of major capital expenditures on financial business in recent years: None
V. Reinvestment policy in the most recent year, main reasons for its profit or loss, improvement plan and investment plan for the next year:
(I) The Group's reinvestment policy:

VI. Risk matters (risk matters should be analyzed and evaluated for the following matters in the most recent year and up to the publication date of the annual report):
(I) The impact of interest rates, exchange rate changes, and inflation on the Company's profit and loss and future countermeasures:
Unit: NT$ thousand
| Item | 2024 | 2025 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Amount | Ratio (%) | Amount | Ratio (%) | |
| Operating revenue | 3,470,396 | 100.00% | 3,335,946 | 100.00% |
| Interest expense | 14,248 | 0.41% | 16,601 | 0.50% |
| Foreign currency exchange gains (losses) | 26,219 | 0.76% | (3,547) | -0.11% |
Source: Financial reports audited and certified by CPAs
-
Interest rate changes:
(1) The Company's interest expenses accounted for a very small proportion of operating income, with minimal impact on profit or loss.
(2) Future response measures: The Company maintains a fairly good credit relationship with banks and monitors market changes at all times. Furthermore, we regularly contact banks to understand the interest rate trends to strive for more favorable loan terms. Moreover, the Company's operating conditions are good. With the continuous growth of business, short-term working capital is still used for primary financial scheduling. Therefore, changes in interest rates will not have a significant impact on the Company's profit and loss. -
Exchange rate changes:
The Group's products are mainly exported and revenue payments and accounts payable are mostly denominated in US dollars. Moreover, the Group will add to the product quotations according to fluctuations in exchange rates. Changes in exchange rates thus have little impact on the Group's profit or loss. Moreover, we appropriately retain the foreign currency portion of sales revenues to make foreign currency payments to serve as a natural hedge. Furthermore, the heads of relevant departments continually monitor market trends and make timely reference to the bank's professional advice in order to minimize the impact of exchange rate changes on the Company's profit and loss. -
Inflation:
The Group continually monitors market price fluctuations and maintains good interactive relationships with suppliers and customers. Moreover, we consider overall market conditions to determine the best purchasing policy. Therefore, inflation does not affect the Group's material profitability.
(II) Policies, main reasons for profit or loss, and future countermeasures for engaging in high-risk and high-leverage investments, loans of funds to others, endorsements/guarantees, and derivatives transactions:
1. Under the philosophy of business prudence and pragmatism, since its establishment, the Company has been committed to its own business. There are no high-risk and high-leverage investment behaviors. The Company mainly holds idle funds in the from fixed deposits.
2. The subject of the Company's funds to others and endorsement in the most recent year is limited to the Company's 100%-owned subsidiaries, and no loss has occurred. The Company undertakes loans of funds to others and endorsement/guarantee operations, all in accordance with the provisions of the "Company's Measures for Loans and Endorsements/Guarantees".
3. The Company does not engage in derivatives transactions.
(III) Future R&D plans and estimated R&D expenses: None.
(IV) The impact of important domestic and foreign policies and legal changes on the Company's financial business and corresponding measures:
The daily operations of the Company and its subsidiaries are handled in accordance with relevant laws and regulations at home and abroad. Furthermore, we keep abreast of domestic and foreign policy development trends and changes in laws and regulations. As of the date of publication, there were no events affecting the Company's financial business due to major policy and legal changes domestically and abroad.
(V) The impact of technological changes (including information security risks) and industry changes on the Company's financial business, and countermeasures:
The Company continually monitors changes in technology related to the industry in which it is located. We undertake timely launches of products that meet market trends, grasp market trends, and improve the automated mass production process as we continue to create high value-added connector products. We develop in step with customers to enhance our competitiveness. Therefore, technological changes have a positive effect on the Company.
In order to improve its information security management, the Company has an information security team that is responsible for promoting information security-related policies, implementing information security incident notification and related emergency responses, regularly assessing information security risks, implementing information security advocacy, education and training, and undertaking information security audits, while strengthening management efficiency.

Since our inception, we have actively strengthened internal management, improved management quality and efficiency, and fulfilled our corporate social responsibility, to maintain a positive corporate image. There have been no major changes in corporate image that have resulted in a corporate crisis.

(VIII) Expected benefits and possible risks of plant expansions and countermeasures: None.
(IX) Risks and countermeasures faced by purchase or sales concentration: None.

(XII) Statement shall be made of litigation or non-litigation events impacting the Company and its directors, supervisors, general managers, substantive persons in charge, and major shareholders whose shareholding ratio exceeds 10%, and major litigation or non-litigation events or administrative disputes confirmed or still being adjudicated for affiliated companies, where the outcomes may have a significant impact on shareholders' equity or the price of securities; disclosure shall be made of the facts in dispute, the subject matter amount, the commencement date of the litigation, the main parties involved in the litigation, and the disposition as of the date of publication of the annual report: No such situation.
