PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL

STATEMENTS AND REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------For the convenience of readers and for information purpose only, the auditors’ report and the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China. In the event of any discrepancy between the English version and the original Chinese version or any differences in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-language auditors’ report and financial statements shall prevail.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of WT Microelectronics Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of WT Microelectronics Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its financial performance and its 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 Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 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 of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

~1~

Key audit matters for the parent company only financial statements of the current period are stated as follows:

Recognition of supplier rebates

Description

Refer to Note 4(12) for accounting policies on supplier rebates.

The Company is primarily engaged in sale of electronic and communication components. In line with industry practice, the Company has entered into rebate arrangements with its suppliers for various kinds and quantities of inventories. The Company calculates the amount of supplier rebates in accordance with the arrangement, and recognises it as a deduction of accounts payable to suppliers, and also a deduction of cost of sales or inventory depending on whether the inventories have been sold. The Company pays the net purchase price, after confirmation that the rebate is granted and the credit memo from its suppliers has been received.

As the terms of different types of supplier rebates vary and changes frequently, and the calculation is complex, the Company relies on the information system to gather related transaction information, and manually matches each inventory category with its corresponding rebate term to calculate the supplier rebate that should be recognised. Since the supplier rebate is material to the parent company only financial statements, and requires more audit effort to address this audit matter, the recognition of supplier rebate has been identified as a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:

  • A. Obtained an understanding and assessed the internal controls related to supplier rebates, and tested the effectiveness of relevant internal controls to verify whether major supplier rebates had been reviewed by responsible management, and the inventory cost had been correctly deducted and paid in net amount based on the credit memo approved by suppliers;

  • B. Performed trend analysis on the ratio of supplier rebates to corresponding transaction amount;

  • C. Sampled supplier rebates and tested whether the transaction quantities which were used in the calculation were consistent with its original transaction data, and obtained arrangements and calculation worksheets to ensure that the rebate recognition was consistent with the arrangements;

  • D. Sampled the supplier rebates which were recognised before balance sheet date but have not yet been

~2~

confirmed by suppliers, verified its consistency and reasonableness with subsequent credit memos approved by suppliers after the balance sheet date, and confirmed that there was no material differences; and

  • E. Performed confirmation of selected material accounts payable, examined whether there is a significant difference between the amount of supplier rebates recognised based on the arrangements and the amount indicated in the suppliers’ confirmation, and investigated the differences, if any.

Impairment assessment of investments accounted for using equity method and goodwill

Description

Refer to Notes 4(13) and 4(18) for accounting policies on investments accounted for using equity method and goodwill impairment, Note 5(2) for the uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions in relation to goodwill impairment, and Notes 6(5) and 6(7) for details of investments accounted for using equity method and goodwill impairment.

The Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) acquired 100% shares of stock of target companies or electronic components distribution business by cash or through exchange of shares of stock. The purchase price was allocated to the net identifiable assets acquired at fair value in accordance with the accounting policies on business combinations. The goodwill which was generated from purchase price allocation was presented in “Investments accounted for using equity method” and “Intangible assets - goodwill”.

Relative to the aforementioned acquired company and distribution business, some distribution business were managed by other operating segments in the same district after the acquisition due to management purpose. After identifying the smallest cash generating unit which can generate independent cash flow, the Group used the expected future cash flows of each cash generating unit and proper discount rate to determine recoverable amount of goodwill, and assesses whether goodwill may be impaired. The above expected future cash flows of each cash generating unit are based on its own financial forecast for the next 5 years. As the assumptions used in the forecast requires management judgement and involves a high degree of uncertainty that may have a material effect in determining the recoverable amount of investments accounted for using equity method and goodwill impairment assessment, we consider the impairment assessment of goodwill a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:

~3~

  • A. Assessed the consistency of smallest cash generating unit which was identified by management and used in goodwill allocation, and the lowest level at which management monitored the goodwill;

  • B. Assessed management’s assessment process of each cash generating unit and determined whether the future cash flows used in valuation model for the next 5 years are consistent with the operating plan which was approved by the Board of Directors;

  • C. As the recoverable amount was determined by value-in–use, ascertained reasonableness of each estimated growth rate, discount rate and other significant assumptions and performed the following:

  • (a) Compared the reasonableness of estimated growth rate with historical data, economic and external industry forecast information;

  • (b) Compared discount rate assumptions with respect to cash generating units’ capital cost and similar return on assets; and

  • (c) Checked the parameters of valuation model and the setting of calculation formula.

  • D. Compared the higher of recoverable amount and book value of each cash generating unit to verify the appropriateness of impairment assessment.

Assessment of allowance for inventory valuation losses

Description

Refer to Note 4(12) for accounting policies on inventory valuation, Note 5(2) for the uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions in relation to inventory valuation, and Note 6(4) for details of inventory valuation. As at December 31, 2018, the Company’s inventories and allowances for inventory valuation losses were NT$34,445,437 thousand and NT$678,676 thousand, respectively.

The Company is primarily engaged in sales of various kinds of electronic components. Due to rapid technology innovations, short lifespan of electronic products and fluctuations in market prices, there is a higher risk of inventory losses due from market value decline or obsolescence. For non-obsolete inventories, the net realisable value is estimated based on the estimated selling price in a certain period around balance sheet date. For aged inventories and individually determined as obsolete inventories, the net realisable value is determined based on historical experience of inventory usage and sales discount. Since the amount of inventory is material, inventory types are various, sources of information in calculating the net realisable value of each type of inventories are many, and the identification of obsolete and damaged inventory and its net realisable value are subject to management’s judgement, we consider the assessment of allowance for inventory valuation losses a key audit matter.

~4~

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:

  • A. Obtained an understanding and evaluated the process of inventory and warehouse management, examined the annual plan and participated in stock take to assess the effectiveness of management’s identification and controls on obsolete inventory;

  • B. Obtained an understanding of the Company’s nature of business and industry and assessed whether the provision policies and procedures were applied reasonably and consistently in all the periods; and

  • C. Obtained the net realisable value statement of each inventory, assessed whether the estimation policy was consistently applied, and tested relevant parameters, including the original data for sales and purchases and obtained supporting documents.

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 parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, 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 supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s 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 auditor’s 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 ROC GAAS will always detect a material

~5~

misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and 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 ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • A. 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, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • B. 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.

  • C. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  • D. 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.

  • E. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • F. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the parent company only financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

~6~

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 of the current period 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.

WT MICROELECTRONICS CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE PARENT COMPANY ONLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)

1. HISTORY AND ORGANISATION

WT Microelectronics Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated as a company limited by shares under the provisions of the Company Act of the Republic of China (R.O.C.). The Company is primarily engaged in the development and sales of electronic and communication components.

2. THE DATE OF AUTHORISATION FOR ISSUANCE OF THE PARENT COMPANY ONLY

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND PROCEDURES FOR AUTHORISATION

These parent company only financial statements were authorised for issuance by the Board of Directors on March 22, 2019.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS

  • (1) Effect of the adoption of new issuances of or amendments to International Financial Reporting

Standards (“IFRS”) as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission (“FSC”)

New standards, interpretations and amendments as endorsed by FSC effective from 2018 are as follows:

follows:
Effective date by
International
Accounting
New Standards,Interpretations and Amendments Standards Board
Amendments to IFRS 2, ‘Classification and measurement of share-based payment January 1, 2018

customers’
Amendments to IAS 7, ‘Disclosure initiative’ January 1, 2017
Amendments to IAS 12, ‘Recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised losses’ January 1, 2017
Amendments to IAS 40, ‘Transfers of investment property’ January 1, 2018
IFRIC 22, ‘Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration’ January 1, 2018

‘Disclosure of interests in other entities’
Annual improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 cycle - Amendments to IAS 28, January 1, 2018
‘Investments in associates and joint ventures’

~14~

Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Company’s financial condition and financial performance based on the Company’s assessment. A. IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’

  • (a) Classification of debt instruments is driven by the entity’s business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets, which would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or financial asset at amortised cost. Equity instruments would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, unless an entity makes an irrevocable election at inception to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument that is not held for trading in other comprehensive income.

  • (b) The impairment losses of debt instruments are assessed using an ‘expected credit loss’ approach. An entity assesses at each balance sheet date whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition to recognise 12-month expected credit losses (‘ECL’) or lifetime ECL (interest revenue would be calculated on the gross carrying amount of the asset before impairment losses occurred); or if the instrument that has objective evidence of impairment, interest revenue after the impairment would be calculated on the book value of net carrying amount (i.e. net of credit allowance). The Company shall always measure the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses for trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component.

  • (c) The Company has elected not to restate prior period financial statements using the modified retrospective approach under IFRS 9. For details of the significant effect as at January 1, 2018, please refer to Note 12(4)B and C.

  • B. IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ and amendments

  • The Company has elected not to restate prior period financial statements and recognised the cumulative effect of initial application as retained earnings at January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach under IFRS 15. The significant effects of adopting the modified transition as of January 1, 2018 are summarised below:

  • (a) Under IFRS 15, liabilities in relation to expected volume discounts and refunds to customers are recognised as refund liabilities, but were previously presented as accounts receivable - allowance for sales returns and discounts in the balance sheet. As of January 1, 2018, the balance amounted to $685,883.

  • (b) Under IFRS 15, liabilities in relation to customer contracts are recognised as contract liabilities, but were previously presented as advance sales receipts in the balance sheet. As of January 1, 2018, the balance amounted to $416,627.

  • C. Amendments to IAS 7, ‘Disclosure initiative’

This amendment requires that an entity shall provide more disclosures related to changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes.

~15~

(2) Effect of new issuances of or amendments to IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC but not yet adopted by

the Company

New standards, interpretations and amendments endorsed by the FSC effective from 2019 are as follows:

follows:
New Standards,Interpretations and Amendments Effective date by
International Accounting
Standards Board
Amendments to IFRS 9, ‘Prepayment features with negative
compensation’
IFRS 16, ‘Leases’
Amendments to IAS 19, ‘Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement’
Amendments to IAS 28, ‘Long-term interests in associates and joint
ventures’
IFRIC 23, ‘Uncertainty over income tax treatments’
Annual improvements to IFRSs 2015-2017 cycle
January 1, 2019
January 1, 2019
January 1, 2019
January 1, 2019
January 1, 2019
January 1, 2019

Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Company’s financial condition and financial performance based on the Company’s assessment. The quantitative impact will be disclosed when the assessment is complete. IFRS 16, ‘Leases’

IFRS 16, ‘Leases’, replaces IAS 17, ‘Leases’ and related interpretations and SICs. The standard requires lessees to recognise a 'right-of-use asset' and a lease liability (except for those leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets). The accounting stays the same for lessors, which is to classify their leases as either finance leases or operating leases and account for those two types of leases differently. IFRS 16 only requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors.

The Company expects to recognise the lease contract of lessees in line with IFRS 16. However, the Company does not intend to restate the financial statements of prior period (referred herein as the “modified retrospective approach”). On January 1, 2019, it is expected that ‘right-of-use asset’ and lease liability will be increased by $357,581 and $357,581, respectively.

(3) IFRSs issued by IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC

New standards, interpretations and amendments issued by IASB but not yet included in the IFRSs endorsed by the FSC are as follows:

New Standards,Interpretations and Amendments Effective date by

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these parent company only financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

(1) Compliance statement

The parent company only financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers”

  • (2) Basis of preparation

  • A. Except for the following items, these parent company only financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:

    • (a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.

    • (b) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income.

    • (c) Defined benefit assets (liabilities) recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.

  • B. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations asendorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the “IFRSs”) requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the parent company only financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.

  • C. In adopting IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 effective January 1, 2018, the Company has elected to apply modified retrospective approach whereby the cumulative impact of the adoption was recognised as retained earnings or other equity as of January 1, 2018 and the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 were not restated. The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 were prepared in compliance with International Accounting Standard 39

~17~

(‘IAS 39’), International Accounting Standard 11 (‘IAS 11’), International Accounting Standard 18 (‘IAS 18’) and related financial reporting interpretations. Please refer to Notes 12(4) and (5) for details of significant accounting policies.

(3) Foreign currency translation

  • A. The parent company only financial statements are presented in NT dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

  • B. Foreign currency transactions and balances

  • (a) Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

  • (b) Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the period end are retranslated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising upon re-translation at the balance sheet date are recognised in profit or loss.

  • (c) Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through profit or loss are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through other comprehensive income are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. However, nonmonetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are not measured at fair value are translated using the historical exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.

  • (d) All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘other gains and losses’.

  • C. Translation of foreign operations

  • (a) The operating results and financial position of all the Company entities, associates and joint arrangements that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

    • i. Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing exchange rate at the date of that balance sheet;

    • ii. Income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates of that period; and

    • iii. All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

  • (b) When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is an associate or joint arrangement, exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale. In addition, if the Company retains partial interest in the former foreign associate or joint arrangement after losing significant influence over the former foreign associate, or losing joint control of the former

~18~

joint arrangement, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in these foreign operations.

  • (c) When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is a subsidiary, cumulative exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately transferred to the non-controlling interest in this foreign operation. In addition, even when the Company retains partial interest in the former foreign subsidiary after losing control of the former foreign subsidiary, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in the foreign operation.

  • (d) Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing exchange rates at the balance sheet date.

(4) Classification of current and non-current items

  • A. Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets:

  • (a) Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realised, or are intended to be sold or consumed within the normal operating cycle;

  • (b) Assets held mainly for trading purposes;

  • (c) Assets that are expected to be realised within twelve months from the balance sheet date;

  • (d) Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents and those that are to be exchanged or used to settle liabilities more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.

  • Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities; otherwise they are classified as non-current liabilities:

  • (a) Liabilities that are expected to be settled within the normal operating cycle;

  • (b) Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities;

  • (c) Liabilities that are to be settled within twelve months from the balance sheet date;

  • (d) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

(5) Cash equivalents

Cash equivalents refer to short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Time deposits that meet the definition above and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments in operations are classified as cash equivalents.

(6) Financial assets (liabilities) at fair value through profit or loss

Effective 2018

  • A. These are financial assets that are not measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income and are held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of selling

~19~

or repurchasing in the short term. Derivatives are also categorised as financial labilities held for trading unless they are designated as hedges.

  • B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.

  • C. At initial recognition, the Company measures the financial liabilities at fair value. All related transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss. The Company subsequently measures these financial liabilities at fair value with any gain or loss recognised in profit or loss.

(7) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

Effective 2018

  • A. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income comprise equity securities which are not held for trading, and for which the Company has made an irrevocable election at initial recognition to recognise changes in fair value in other comprehensive income.

  • B. On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting.

  • C. At initial recognition, the Company measures the financial assets at fair value plus transaction costs. The Company subsequently measures the financial assets at fair value. The changes in fair value of equity investments that were recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to retained earnings and are not reclassified to profit or loss following the derecognition relating to the investment. Dividends are recognised as revenue when the right to receive payment is established, future economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.

(8) Accounts and notes receivable

  • A. Accounts and notes receivable entitle the Company a legal right to receive consideration in exchange for transferred goods or rendered services.

  • B. The short-term accounts and notes receivable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.

  • C. The Company’s operating pattern of accounts receivable that are expected to be factored is for the purpose of receiving contract cash flow and selling, and the accounts receivable are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income.

  • (9) Impairment of financial assets

  • For financial assets at amortised cost including accounts receivable that have a significant financing component, at each reporting date, the Company recognises the impairment provision for 12 months expected credit losses if there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition or recognises the impairment provision for the lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) if such credit risk has increased since initial recognition after taking into consideration all reasonable and verifiable information that includes forecasts. On the other hand, for accounts receivable that do not contain a significant financing component, the Company recognises the impairment provision for lifetime ECLs.

~20~

(10) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognises a financial asset when one of the following conditions is met:

  • A. The contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset expire.

  • B. The contractual rights to receive cash flows of the financial asset have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset.

  • C. The contractual rights to receive cash flows of the financial asset have been transferred, however, the Company has not retained control of the financial asset.

(11) Operating leases (lessor)

Lease income from an operating lease (net of any incentives given to the lessee) is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(12) Inventories

  • A. The cost of inventories includes the purchase price, import duties and other costs directly attributable to the acquisition of goods. The discount, allowance and others alike should be deducted from the cost.

  • B. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method. The item by item approach is used in applying the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the applicable variable selling expenses.

(13) Investments accounted for using equity method / subsidiaries and associates

  • A. Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) controlled by the Company. The Company controls an entity when the Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

  • B. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between companies within the Company are eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company.

  • C. The Company’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Company’s share of losses in a subsidiary equals or exceeds its interest in the subsidiary, the Company continues to recognise the losses in proportion to the ownership.

  • D. Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent losing control of the subsidiary (transactions with non-controlling interests) are accounted for as equity transactions, i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity.

  • E. Associates are all entities over which the Company has significant influence but not control. In general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly

~21~

or indirectly 20 percent or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognised at cost.

  • F. The Company’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Company’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Company does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

  • G. When changes in an associate’s equity do not arise from profit or loss or other comprehensive income of the associate and such changes do not affect the Company’s ownership percentage of the associate, the Company recognises change in ownership interests in the associate in ‘capital surplus’ in proportion to its ownership.

  • H. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Company and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company.

  • I. In the case that an associate issues new shares and the Company does not subscribe or acquire new shares proportionately, which results in a change in the Company’s ownership percentage of the associate but maintains significant influence on the associate, then ‘capital surplus’ and ‘investments accounted for using equity method’ shall be adjusted for the increase or decrease of its share of equity interest. If the above condition causes a decrease in the Company’s ownership percentage of the associate, in addition to the above adjustment, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of.

  • J. When the Company disposes its investment in an associate and loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate, are reclassified to profit or loss. If it retains significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately in accordance with the aforementioned approach.

  • K. Pursuant to the “Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers,” profit (loss) of the current period and other comprehensive income in the parent company only financial statements shall equal to the amount attributable to owners of the parent in the consolidated financial statements. Owners’ equity in the parent company only financial statements shall equal to equity attributable to owners of the parent in the consolidated financial statements.

~22~

(14) Property, plant and equipment

  • A. Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost.

  • B. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

  • C. Land is not depreciated. Other property, plant and equipment apply cost model and are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives. Each part of an item of property, plant, and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item must be depreciated separately.

  • D. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. If expectations for the assets’ residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets’ future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, from the date of the change. The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Buildings and structures 26 ~ 55 years Office equipment 2 ~ 5 years Other assets 2 ~ 10 years

(15) Operating leases (lessee)

Payments made under an operating lease (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

  • (16) Investment property

An investment property is stated initially at its cost and measured subsequently using the cost model. Except for land, investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 50 ~ 55 years.

(17) Intangible assets

  • A. Goodwill arises in a business combination accounted for by applying the acquisition method.

  • B. Computer software is stated at cost and amortised on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 3~5 years.

(18) Impairment of non-financial assets

  • A. The Company assesses at each balance sheet date the recoverable amounts of those assets where there is an indication that they are impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. Except for goodwill, when the circumstances or reasons for recognising impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer

~23~

exist or diminish, the impairment loss is reversed. The increased carrying amount due to reversal should not be more than what the depreciated or amortised historical cost would have been if the impairment had not been recognised.

  • B. The recoverable amount of goodwill shall be evaluated periodically. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment loss of goodwill previously recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed in the following years.

  • C. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash-generating units, or groups of cash-generating units, that is/are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is monitored at the operating segment level.

  • (19) Borrowings

  • A. Borrowings comprise long-term and short-term bank borrowings. Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

  • B. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the drawdown occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.

  • (20) Convertible bonds payable

  • Convertible corporate bonds issued by the Company contain conversion options (that is, the bondholders have the right to convert the bonds into the Company’s common shares by exchanging a fixed amount of cash for a fixed number of common shares). The Company classifies the bonds payable and derivative features embedded in convertible corporate bonds on initial recognition as a financial liability or an equity instrument (‘capital surplus—share options’) in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial asset, a financial liability and an equity instrument. Convertible corporate bonds are accounted for as follows:

  • A. The host contracts of bonds are initially recognised at fair value. Any difference between the initial recognition and the redemption value is accounted for as the premium or discount on bonds payable and subsequently is amortised in profit or loss as an adjustment to ‘finance costs’ over the period of circulation using the effective interest method.

  • B. The embedded conversion options which meet the definition of an equity instrument are initially recognised in ‘capital surplus—share options’ at the residual amount of total issue price less the

~24~

amount of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and bonds payable as stated above. Conversion options are not subsequently remeasured.

  • C. Any transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance are allocated to each liability or equity component in proportion to the initial carrying amount of each abovementioned item.

  • D. When bondholders exercise conversion options, the liability component of the bonds (including ‘bonds payable) shall be remeasured on the conversion date. The book value of common shares issued due to the conversion shall be based on the adjusted book value of the abovementioned liability component plus the book value of capital surplus – share options.

  • (21) Employee benefits

  • A. Short-term employee benefits

    • Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in respect of service rendered by employees in a period and should be recognised as expense in that period when the employees render service.
  • B. Pensions

    • (a) Defined contribution plans

For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognised as pension expense when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.

  • (b) Defined benefit plans

    • i. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Company in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The net defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount is determined by using interest rates of highquality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension liability.

    • ii. Remeasurements arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings.

    • iii. Past service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

  • C. Employees’, directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration

  • Employees’ remuneration and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognised as expense and liability, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates.

~25~

- (22) Employee share based payment

  • A. For the equity-settled share-based payment arrangements, the employee services received are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the grant date, and are recognised as compensation cost over the vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to equity. The fair value of the equity instruments granted shall reflect the impact of market vesting conditions and non-vesting conditions. Compensation cost is subject to adjustment based on the service conditions that are expected to be satisfied and the estimates of the number of equity instruments that are expected to vest under the non-market vesting conditions at each balance sheet date. Ultimately, the amount of compensation cost recognised is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

  • B. The grant date of cash capital increase reserved for employee preemption is the date at which the entity and the employee agree to a share-based payment arrangement, being when the entity and the counterparty have a shared understanding of the terms and conditions of the arrangement.

  • (23) Income tax

  • A. The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or items recognised directly in equity, in which cases the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity.

  • B. The current income tax expense is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in accordance with applicable tax regulations. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. An additional tax is levied on the unappropriated retained earnings and is recorded as income tax expense in the year the stockholders resolve to retain the earnings.

  • C. Deferred tax is recognised, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the parent company only balance sheet. However, the deferred tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Company and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.

  • D. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. At each balance sheet

~26~

date, unrecognised and recognised deferred tax assets are reassessed.

  • E. Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset on the balance sheet when the entity has the legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and they are levied by the same taxation authority on either the same entity or different entities that intend to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

  • F. A deferred tax asset shall be recognised for the carryforward of unused tax credits resulting from research and development expenditures to the extent that it is possible that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilised.

  • (24) Dividends

Dividends are recorded in the Company’s financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the Company’s shareholders. Cash dividends are recorded as liabilities; stock dividends are recorded as stock dividends to be distributed and are reclassified to ordinary shares on the effective date of new shares issuance.

(25) Revenue recognition

  • A. The Company sells electronic and communication components. Sales are recognised when the control of the products has been transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.

  • B. The goods are often sold with volume discounts based on aggregate sales over a 12-month period. Revenue from these sales is recognised based on the price specified in the contract, net of the estimated sales discounts and allowances. Accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for the sales discounts and allowances, using the expected value method, and revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. The estimation is subject to an assessment at each reporting date. A refund liability is recognised for expected volume discounts payable to customers in relation to sales made until the end of the reporting period. The sales usually are made with a credit term of 90~120 days. As the time interval between the transfer of committed goods or service and the payment of customer does not exceed one year, the Company does not adjust the transaction price to reflect the time value of money.

  • C. A receivable is recognised when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due. The customer pays at the time specified in the payment schedule. If the payments exceed

~27~

the merchandise provided, a contract liability is recognised.

  • (26) Business combinations

  • A. The Company uses the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed and equity instruments issued at the acquisition date, plus the fair value of any assets and liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. All acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. For each business combination, the Company measures at the acquisition date components of non-controlling interests in the acquiree that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to the proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation at either fair value or the present ownership instruments’ proportionate share in the recognised amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. All other non-controlling interests should be measured at the acquisition-date fair value.

  • B. The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill at the acquisition date. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest in the acquire recognised and the fair value of previously held equity interest in the acquiree is less than the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss on the acquisition date.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY

The preparation of these parent company only financial statements requires management to make critical judgements in applying the Company’s accounting policies and make critical assumptions and estimates concerning future events. Assumptions and estimates may differ from the actual results and are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors. The related information is addressed below:

(1) Critical judgements in applying the Company’s accounting policies

  • Revenue recognition on a net/gross basis

The Company determines whether the nature of its performance obligation is to provide the specified goods or services itself (i.e. the Company is a principal) or to arrange for the other party to provide those goods or services (i.e. the Company is an agent) based on the transaction model and its economic substance. The Company is a principal if it controls a promised good or service before it transfers the good or service to a customer. The Company recognises revenue at gross amount of consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services transferred. The Company is an agent if its performance obligation is to arrange for the provision of goods or services by another party. The Company recognises revenue at the amount of any fee or commission

~28~

to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for arranging for the other party to provide its goods or services.

Indicators that the Company controls the goods or services before it is provided to a customer include the following:

  • A. The Company is primarily responsible for the provision of goods or services;

  • B. The Company assumes the inventory risk before transferring the specified goods or services to the customer or after transferring control of the goods or services to the customer.

  • C. The Company has discretion in establishing prices for the goods or services.

  • (2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

  • The Company makes estimates and assumptions based on the expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the end of the reporting period. The resulting accounting estimates might be different from the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below:

  • A. Impairment assessment of goodwill

The impairment assessment of goodwill relies on the Company’s subjective judgement, including identifying cash-generating units, allocating assets and liabilities as well as goodwill to related cash-generating units, and determining the recoverable amounts of related cash-generating units. Please refer to Note 6(7) for the information of goodwill impairment.

  • B. Evaluation of inventories

As inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, the Company must determine the net realisable value of inventories on balance sheet date using judgements and estimates. Due to the rapid technology innovation, the Company evaluates the amounts of normal inventory consumption, obsolete inventories or inventories without market selling value on balance sheet date, and writes down the cost of inventories to the net realisable value. Such an evaluation of inventories is principally based on the demand for the products within the specified period in the future. Therefore, there might be material changes to the evaluation.

A. The Company signed the business transfer agreement with STC Corporation in June 2018 and acquired part of the company’s electronic components distribution business. The business

~34~

acquisition date was set in October 2018. The information regarding the intangible assets arising from the transfer is provided in Note 6(29).

  • B. In 2017, the acquisition price was adjusted pursuant to the contingent consideration provision in the business transfer agreement signed in 2011 with Kei Kong Electronic Ltd. As a result, the goodwill from the business was also adjusted in the amount of $63,839.

  • C. The Company evaluated the impairment of recoverable amount of the goodwill at each reporting date and used the value-in-use calculation as basis for recoverable amount. These calculations use future cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by the management covering a five-year period.

  • The future cash flows were estimated based on the annual revenue, gross profit and other operating expenses in the future. The Company’s estimated average annual revenue growth rate is 5%~10%, and adopted discount rate is the pre-tax ratio of weighted average capital cost to reflect risk of related cash-generating units. Based on the aforementioned assessment, no recognition of impairment loss of goodwill was recognised for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

  • (b) The Company entered into forward foreign exchange contracts to sell USD to hedge exchange rate risk of foreign currency. However, these forward foreign exchange contracts are not accounted for under hedge accounting.

  • (c) The cross currency swap contracts signed by the Company are to fulfill capital movement. For exchange rate, principals denominated in two currencies are exchanged at the same exchange rate at the initial and final exchanges. Thus, there is no foreign exchange risk. For interest rate, to hedge the exchange risk of floating rate, the Company exchanged fixed rate of NTD for floating rate of USD. However, these cross currency swap contracts are not accounted for under hedge accounting.

  • C. For the derivative transactions, the Company deals with a variety of financial institutions all with high credit quality, so it expects that the probability of counterparty default is remote.

  • A. The Company has signed a syndicated loan agreement whereby the Company is obligated to avail of borrowings equivalent to a certain percentage of the credit line during the period from six months after the date of first drawdown. If the total borrowings do not reach the minimum availment amount as specified in the loan agreement, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.1% per annum based on the unavailed portion of the credit line. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has not used any of the aforementioned syndicated loans. However, in June 2018, the Company applied for the cancellation of the credit line in advance. As of December 31, 2018, the undrawn credit line of the syndicated loans had all been cancelled.

  • B. The loan is classified as long-term liabilities since the term of the loan is more than one year and the Company plans to re-finance. Under the syndicated loan agreement, the credit line decreases equally during the remaining contract period from 3 years after the date of first drawdown.

  • C. Under the Bank SinoPac borrowing contract, the Company should maintain the required current ratio, gearing ratio and interest coverage ratio based on the annual and semi-annual parent company only financial statements during the terms of the syndicated loans.

(14) Pensions

  • A. Defined benefit pension plan

  • (a) The Company has a defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Labor Standards Act, covering all regular employees’ service years prior to the enforcement of the Labor Pension Act on July 1, 2005 and service years thereafter of employees who chose to continue to be subject to the pension mechanism under the Act. Under the defined benefit pension plan, two units are accrued for each year of service for the first 15 years and one unit for each additional year thereafter, subject to a maximum of 45 units. Pension benefits are based on the number of units accrued and the average monthly salaries and wages of the last 6 months prior to retirement. The Company contributes monthly an amount equal to 2% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the retirement fund deposited with Bank of Taiwan, the trustee, under the name of the independent retirement fund committee. Also, the Company would assess the balance in the aforementioned labor pension reserve account by December 31, every year. If the account balance is insufficient to pay the pension calculated by the aforementioned method to the employees expected to qualify for retirement in the following year, the Company will make contributions for the deficit by next March.

  • (b) The amounts recognised in the balance sheet are as follows:

(d) The Bank of Taiwan was commissioned to manage the Fund of the Company’s defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Fund’s annual investment and utilisation plan and the “Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilisation of the Labor Retirement Fund” (Article 6: The scope of utilisation for the Fund includes deposit in domestic or foreign financial institutions, investment in domestic or foreign listed, over-thecounter, or private placement equity securities, investment in domestic or foreign real estate securitisation products, etc.). With regard to the utilisation of the Fund, its minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall be no less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from two-year time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks. If the earnings is less than aforementioned rates, government shall make payment for the deficit after being authorised by the Regulator. The Company has no right to participate in managing and operating that fund and hence the Company is unable to disclose the classification of plan assets fair value in accordance with IAS 19 paragraph 142. The composition of fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 is given in the Annual Labour Retirement Fund Utilisation Report announced by the government.

(e) The principal actuarial assumptions used were as follows:

Discount rate
Future salary increases
Years ended December 31, Years ended December 31,
2018
1.0%
3.0%
2017
1.2%
3.0%

Future mortality rate was estimated based on the 5th Taiwan Standard Ordinary Experience Mortality Table.

~40~

Because the main actuarial assumption changed, the present value of defined benefit obligation is affected. The analysis was as follows:

The sensitivity analysis above is based on one assumption which changed while the other conditions remain unchanged. In practice, more than one assumption may change all at once. The method of analysing sensitivity and the method of calculating net pension liability in the balance sheet are the same.

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the previous period.

  • (f) Expected contributions to the defined benefit pension plan of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2019 amount to $2,469.

  • (g) As of December 31, 2018, the weighted average duration of the retirement plan is 12 years.

  • B. Defined contribution pension plan

  • (a) Effective July 1, 2005, the Company has established a defined contribution pension plan (the “New Plan”) under the Labor Pension Act (the “Act”), covering all regular employees with R.O.C. nationality. Under the New Plan, the Company contributes monthly an amount based on 6% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the employees’ individual pension accounts at the Bureau of Labor Insurance. The benefits accrued are paid monthly or in lump sum upon termination of employment.

  • (b) The pension costs under the defined contribution pension plan of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $32,550 and $29,185, respectively.

(16) Share capital

  • A. As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s authorised capital was $10,000,000, consisting of 1 billion shares of ordinary stock (including 82 million shares reserved for employee stock options), and the paid-in capital was $5,551,889 with a par value of $10 (in dollars) per share. All proceeds from shares issued have been collected.

  • C. For the fourth quarter of 2018, convertible bonds amounting to $75,800 in total par value were requested for conversion into 2,422 thousand ordinary shares. The amount was recorded under ‘certificate of entitlement to new shares from convertible bonds’ because the change in registration has not yet been completed as of December 31, 2018.

(17) Capital surplus

  • A. Pursuant to the R.O.C. Company Law, capital surplus arising from paid-in capital in excess of par value on issuance of common stocks and donations can be used to cover accumulated deficit or to issue new stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership, provided that the Company has no accumulated deficit. Further, the R.O.C. Securities and Exchange Act requires that the amount of capital surplus to be capitalised mentioned above should not exceed 10% of the paid-in capital each year. Capital surplus should not be used to cover accumulated deficit unless the legal reserve is insufficient.

  • A. Under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the current year’s earnings, if any, shall first be used to pay all taxes and offset prior years’ operating losses and then 10% of the remaining amount shall be set aside as legal reserve until the legal reserve equals the paid-in capital. Special reserve shall be set aside or reversed as required by regulations or the Competent Authority when necessary. The remainder, if any, along with beginning unappropriated earnings is the accumulated distributable earnings. The amounts of abovementioned accumulated distributable earnings to be reserved or to be allocated and the way of distribution shall be determined based on the Company’s dividend policy, taking into account the indispensability of taking the earnings to back up the capital needs. The appropriation shall be proposed by the Board of Directors and resolved by the shareholders.

  • B. The Company’s dividend policy is regulated by the Board of Directors taking into consideration the Company’s operations, future investment plans, capital budget and internal/external situations. As the Company is in the growth stage, most of retained earnings will be used to support business development and investment requirements and consequently, the minimum cash dividend and extra dividend policy is adopted by the Company. The Company’s dividend

~43~

policy is summarised below:

At least 40% of the Company’s earnings shall be appropriated as stock dividends and cash dividends, taking into account profits in the future and capital needs, and cash dividends shall account for at least 10% of the total dividends distributed. In the event the total earnings appropriation exceeds 30% of the Company’s paid-in capital before appropriation, cash dividends shall account for at least 20% of the total dividends distributed.

  • C. Except for covering accumulated deficit or issuing new stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership, the legal reserve shall not be used for any other purpose. The use of legal reserve for the issuance of stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership is permitted, provided that the balance of the reserve exceeds 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital.

  • D. In accordance with the regulations, the Company shall set aside special reserve from the debit balance on other equity items at the balance sheet date before distributing earnings. When debit balance on other equity items is reversed subsequently, the reversed amount could be included in the distributable earnings.

  • E. According to the resolutions adopted by the stockholders during their meetings in June 2018 and 2017, the distribution information of the Company’s 2017 and 2016 earnings is as follows:

(1) Capital management

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. The Company monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as ‘total borrowings’ as shown in the consolidated balance sheet less cash and cash equivalents. Total equity is calculated as ‘equity’ as shown in the consolidated balance sheet.

In 2018 and 2017, the Company’s strategy was to maintain the financial debt ratio below 250%.

(2) Financial instruments

  • A. Financial instruments by category

  • The types of financial instruments held by the Company include cash and cash equivalents, financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income/available-for-sale financial assets, net accounts receivable, other receivables, other current assets, short-term borrowings, short-term notes and bills payable, financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, accounts payable, other payables, bonds payable, and long-term loans. Please refer to Note 6 and the balance sheets for more information.

  • B. Risk management policies

  • (a) The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. To minimise any adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company, derivative financial instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts and foreign currency option contracts are used to hedge certain exchange rate risk. In addition, foreign exchange risk is managed by matching the payment periods of foreign currency assets and liabilities.

  • (b) Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Company treasury) under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Company treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close cooperation with the Company’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas and matters, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

  • (c) Information about derivative financial instruments that are used to hedge certain exchange

~57~

rate risk are provided in Note 6(10).

  • C. Significant financial risks and degrees of financial risks

  • (a) Market risk

Foreign exchange risk

  • i. The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from the transactions of the Company in various functional currency, primarily with respect to the USD. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities.

  • ii. Management has set up a policy to manage their foreign exchange risk against their functional currency.

  • iii. The Company hedges foreign exchange rate by using forward exchange contracts. However, the Company does not adopt hedging accounting. Details of financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are provided in Note 6(10).

  • iv. The Company’s businesses involve some non-functional currency operations (the Company’s functional currency: NTD). The information on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies whose values would be materially affected by the exchange rate fluctuations is as follows:

Price risk

  • i. The Company’s equity securities, which are exposed to price risk, are the held financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the Company.

  • ii. The Company’s investments in equity securities comprise shares issued by the domestic and foreign companies. The prices of equity securities would change due to the change of the future value of investee companies. If the prices of these equity securities had increased/decreased by 1% with all other variables held constant, for the year ended December 31, 2018, other components of equity would have increased/decreased by $122, as a result of other comprehensive income classified equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.

Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

  • i. The Company’s main interest rate risk arises from bank borrowings with variable rates and advance receipt of factoring accounts receivable, which expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s borrowings at variable rate were mainly denominated in US Dollars.

  • ii. The Company’s borrowings are measured at amortised cost. The borrowings are periodically contractually repriced and to that extent are also exposed to the risk of future changes in market interest rates.

  • iii. If the borrowing interest rate had increased/decreased by 25 basis point with all other

~59~

variables held constant, profit, net of tax for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 would have increased/decreased by $48,312 and $36,568, respectively. The main factor is that changes in interest expense result on floating rate borrowings.

  • (b) Credit risk

  • i. Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Company arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. The main factor is that counterparties could not repay in full the accounts receivable based on the agreed terms.

  • ii. The Company manages their credit risk taking into consideration the entire Company’s concern. For banks and financial institutions, only approved by FSC are accepted. According to the credit policy, each local entity in the Company is responsible for managing and analysing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored.

  • iii. If the contract payments were past due over 90 days based on the terms, there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition. The default occurs when the contract payments are past due over 180 days.

  • iv. The ageing analysis of accounts receivable (including overdue receivables) and notes receivable is as follows:

eceivable is as follows:

  • (i) The above ageing analysis was based on days past due.

  • (ii) Abovementioned notes receivable are not past due.

  • v. The Company assesses the expected credit losses of its accounts receivable as follows:

  • (i) Accounts receivable that are significantly past due are assessed individually for their expected credit losses;

  • (ii) The remaining receivables are segmented according to the Company’s credit ratings of its customers. Different loss rates or provision matrices are applied to the different segments when estimating expected credit losses;

  • (iii) Loss rates, calculated from historical and current information, are adjusted according to forward-looking information such as the business indicators published by the

~60~

National Development Council.

  • vii. Credit risk information for the year ended December 31, 2017 is provided in Note 12(4).

  • (c) Liquidity risk

  • i. Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Company and aggregated by Company treasury. The Company treasury monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities (Note 6(13)) at all times so that the Company does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Company’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with internally assessed financial ratio targets and, if applicable external regulatory or legal requirements.

  • ii. Surplus cash held by the operating entities over and above balance required for working capital management are transferred to the Company treasury. The Company treasury invests surplus cash in interest bearing current accounts, time deposits, money market deposits and marketable securities, choosing instruments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient headroom as determined by the abovementioned

~61~

forecasts, and expects to readily generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk.

  • iii.

Except for the abovementioned, the Company’s non-derivative financial liabilities are due in one year.

Derivative financial liabilities

As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, all derivative financial liabilities of the Company are due in one year.

  • iv. The Company does not expect the timing of occurrence of the cash flows estimated through the maturity date analysis will be significantly earlier, nor expect the actual cash flow amount will be significantly different.

(3) Fair value information

  • A. The different levels that the inputs to valuation techniques are used to measure fair value of financial and non-financial instruments have been defined as follows:

  • Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. A market is regarded as active where a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. This includes the fair value of all investments in publicly listed companies.

~62~

  • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. This includes the fair value of all investments in derivative financial instruments.

  • Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value of the Company’s investment in equity investment without active market is included in Level 3.

  • B. The carrying amounts of financial instruments not measured at fair value, including cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, other receivables, other current assets, shortterm borrowings, short-term notes and bills payable, accounts payable, other payables, corporate bonds payable and long-term borrowings, are approximate to their fair values.

  • C. The related information of financial instruments measured at fair value by level on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks are as follows:

  • (b) The methods and assumptions the Company used to measure fair value are as follows:

  • i. The instruments the Company used market quoted prices as their fair values (that is, Level

    • 1) are listed below by characteristics:

Market quoted price

Listed shares

Closing price

  • ii. Except for financial instruments with active markets, the fair value of other financial

~63~

instruments is measured by using valuation techniques or by reference to counterparty quotes. The fair value of financial instruments measured by using valuation techniques can be referred to current fair value of instruments with similar terms and characteristics in substance, discounted cash flow method or other valuation methods, including calculated by applying model using market information available at the parent company only balance sheet date.

  • iii. When assessing non-standard and low-complexity financial instruments, for example, cross currency swap contracts, the Company adopts valuation technique that is widely used by market participants. The inputs used in the valuation method to measure these financial instruments are normally observable in the market.

  • iv. The valuation of derivative financial instruments is based on valuation model widely accepted by market participants, such as present value techniques and option pricing models. Forward exchange contracts are usually valued based on the current forward exchange rate.

  • v. The output of valuation model is an estimated value and the valuation technique may not be able to capture all relevant factors of the Company’s financial and non-financial instruments. Therefore, the estimated value derived using valuation model is adjusted accordingly with additional inputs, for example, model risk or liquidity risk and etc. In accordance with the Company’s management policies and relevant control procedures relating to the valuation models used for fair value measurement, management believes adjustment to valuation is necessary in order to reasonably represent the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments at the parent company only balance sheet. The inputs and pricing information used during valuation are carefully assessed and adjusted based on current market conditions.

  • vi. The Company takes into account adjustments for credit risks to measure the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments to reflect credit risk of the counterparty and the Company’s credit quality.

  • D. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, there was no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2.

  • E. The following chart is the movement of Level 3 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:

(4) Effects on initial application of IFRS 9 and information on application of IAS 39 in 2017

  • A. Summary of significant accounting policies adopted in 2017

  • (a) Financial assets (liabilities) at fair value through profit or loss

    • i. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets (liabilities) held for trading. Financial assets (liabilities) are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorized as financial assets (liabilities) held for trading unless they are designated as hedges.

    • ii. Financial assets (liabilities) at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value. Related transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. These financial assets (liabilities) are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognised in profit or loss.

  • (b)Impairment of financial assets

    • i. The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.

    • ii. The criteria that the Group uses to determine whether there is objective evidence of an impairment loss is as follows:

    • (i) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;

    • (ii) A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

    • (iii) The Group, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, granted the borrower a concession that a lender would not otherwise consider;

    • (iv) It becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;

    • (v) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;

    • (vi) Observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets,

~65~

although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial asset in the group, including adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the group or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group;

  • (vii) Information about significant changes with an adverse effect that have taken place in the technology, market, economic or legal environment in which the issuer operates, and indicates that the cost of the investment in the equity instrument may not be recovered;

  • (viii) A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.

  • iii. When the Group assesses that there has been objective evidence of impairment and an impairment loss has occurred, accounting for impairment is made as follows according to the category of financial assets:

Financial assets carried at cost

  • The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at current market return rate of similar financial asset, and is recognised in profit or loss. Impairment loss recognised for this category shall not be reversed subsequently. Impairment loss is recognized by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.

  • B. The reconciliation of carrying amount of financial assets transferred from December 31, 2017, IAS 39, to January 1, 2018, IFRS 9, were as follows:

  • (a) According to the Company’s intention, its investment in unlisted stocks should be classified as ‘available-for-sale financial assets’. However, as unlisted stocks are not traded in active market, and no sufficient industry information of companies similar to unlisted companies’ financial information cannot be obtained, the fair value of the investment in unlisted stocks cannot be measured reliably. The Company classified those stocks as ‘financial assets measured at cost’.

  • (b) As of December 31, 2017, no financial assets measured at cost held by the Company was pledged to others.

  • E. Credit risk information for the year ended December 31, 2017 is as follows:

  • (a) Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Company arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. According to the Company’s credit policy, each local entity in the Company is responsible for managing and analysing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to customers, including outstanding receivables. Because the counterparties of the Company and performing parties are banks with good credit and financial institutions and government organisations with investment grade or above have no significant compliance concern, there is no significant credit risk.

  • (b) For the year ended December 31, 2017, no credit limits were exceeded during the reporting periods, and management does not expect any significant losses from non-performance by these counterparties.

  • (c) The credit quality of notes and accounts receivable that were neither past due nor impaired was in the following categories based on the Company’s Credit Quality Control Policy:

(5) Effects of initial application of IFRS 15 and information on application of IAS 11 and IAS 18 in 2017

  • A. The significant accounting policies applied on revenue recognition for the year ended December 31, 2017 are set out below.

Revenue recognition

  • (a) The Company sells electronic and communication components. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable taking into account value-added tax, returns, rebates and discounts for the sale of goods to external customers in the ordinary

~68~

course of the Company’s activities. Revenue arising from the sales of goods is recognised when the Company has delivered the goods to the customer, the amount of sales revenue can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity. The delivery of goods is completed when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, the Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold, and the customer has accepted the goods based on the sales contract or there is objective evidence showing that all acceptance provisions have been satisfied.

  • (b)The Company offers customers volume discounts and estimates such discounts and returns based on historical experience. Provisions for such liabilities are recorded when the sales are recognised. The volume discounts are estimated based on the anticipated annual sales quantities.

  • B. In line with IFRS 15 requirements, the Company changed the presentation of certain accounts in the balance sheet as follows:

  • (a) Under IFRS 15, liabilities in relation to expected volume discounts and refunds to customers are recognised as contract liabilities, but were previously presented as accounts receivable - allowance for sales returns and discounts in the balance sheet. As of January 1, 2018, the balance amounted to $685,883.

  • (b) Under IFRS 15, liabilities in relation to customer contracts are recognised as contract liabilities, but were previously presented as other current liabilities-advance sales receipts in the balance sheet. As of January 1, 2018, the balance amounted to $416,627.
