INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Yem Chio Co., Ltd.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements").
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors (please refer to the Other Matter), the accompanying consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We 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 consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Valuation of inventory
The Group is mainly engaged in the manufacture, processing, and sales of packaging materials, including BOPP film, adhesives and polystyrene sheets, as well as land development and construction. The Group’s inventories were measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Considering the Group’s inventories were significant to the consolidated financial statements and the determination of net realizable value for the inventories involves judgements and estimates, we identified the evaluation of inventories as a key audit matter.
Our audit procedures including (but are not limited to) assessing the appropriateness of the management’s accounting policy for inventory evaluation; evaluating and testing the effectiveness of relevant internal control; sampling the inventory aging report by checking the inventory entry dates are consistent with relevant supportive documents; recalculating the inventory obsolescence loss based on the aging report; reviewing and calculating the reasonableness of the inventory net realizable value report; and participating in the annual inventory count to identify if there is obsolete or impaired inventory. For the inventory of land development and construction business, obtaining the valuation data in relation to the net realisable value of inventories to ascertain whether the data source, assumptions and methods adopted by the Group are reasonable. Testing data in order to check the reasonableness of the net realisable value of construction-in-progress and land held for building.
Please refer to Notes 4, 5 and 6(6) of the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policies, significant accounting estimates and the information about inventories, respectively.
Valuation of investment property
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of investment property was NT$2,411,173 thousand and NT$2,399,775 thousand, respectively, constituting 7% of total assets. The Group’s investment property is valued by external experts using the fair value model. Given that the valuation process is subject to significant assumptions on discount rate and future lease income and has material effect on the fair value measurement. We identified the evaluation of investment property as a key audit matter.
Our audit procedures including (but are not limited to) assessing the qualifications and independence of appointed external appraisers; obtaining and reviewing reasonableness of appraisal report, including valuation method and key appraisal assumptions and estimates, etc.; assessing reasonableness of the lease income and rental growth rate are reasonable by referencing to the market rental rate for the investment properties using the income approach.
Please refer to Notes 4, 5 and 6(10) of the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policies, significant accounting estimates and the information about investment property, respectively.

Other matter
We did not audit the financial statements of certain subsidiaries which were audited by other auditors. Therefore, our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in respect of these subsidiaries, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. Total assets of these subsidiaries amounted to NT$1,569,037 thousand and NT$1,728,606 thousand, constituting 4% and 5% of consolidated total assets as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and net operating revenue amounted to NT$1,232,803 thousand and NT$2,738,331 thousand, constituting 9% and 17% of consolidated operating revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group'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 Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance, including audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when 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 consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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.
-
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 internal control of the Group.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability to continue as a going concern of the Group. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the consolidated 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 auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the accompanying notes, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
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.
5
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of 2025 consolidated financial statements and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' 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.
Others
We and other auditors have audited and expressed an unqualified opinion with other matter section on the parent company only financial statements of Yem Chio Co., Ltd. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
- History and organization
Yem Chio 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 and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group") are primarily engaged in researching, designing, manufacturing, processing, and sales of petrochemical and packaging materials, including BOPP film and adhesive tape, as well as land development and construction.
The Company had been listed as Second (TIGER) category securities on Gre Tai Securities Market since April, 2000, and had been listed as general securities since April, 2001. Since January 21, 2008, the Company had been listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange.

The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issuance by the Board of Directors on March 13, 2026.

(1) Changes in accounting policies resulting from applying for the first time certain standards and amendments
The Group applied for the first time International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, and Interpretations issued, revised or amended which are recognised by Financial Supervisory Commission ("FSC") and become effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025.

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
(3) Standards or interpretations issued, revised or amended, by IASB which have not been endorsed by FSC, and not yet adopted by the Group as at the end of the reporting period are listed below.
| Items | New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations | Effective Date issued by IASB |
|---|---|---|
| a | IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures” — Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Ventures | To be determined by IASB |

The abovementioned standards and interpretations issued by IASB have not yet endorsed by FSC at the date when the Group's financial statements were authorized for issue, the local effective dates are to be determined by FSC. The Group assessed above standards and interpretations have no material impact on the Group.
A. Enhancing the comparability of the income statement
The income statement will classify income and expenses into five categories—operating, investing, financing, income taxes, and discontinued operations. The first three categories are newly introduced to improve the structure of the income statement. Entities will also be required to present new subtotals (including operating profit or loss) based on these definitions. By improving the structure of the income statement and requiring standardized subtotals, investors will have a consistent starting point when analyzing financial performance across entities, thereby making cross-company comparisons easier.
B. Increasing transparency of management performance measures
Entities will be required to disclose explanations of entity-specific performance metrics related to the income statement, referred to as Management Performance Measures (MPMs).

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
C. Useful aggregation of financial information
Application guidance will be provided to help entities determine whether particular financial information should be presented in the primary financial statements or in the notes. This change is expected to result in more detailed and decision-useful information. Entities will also be required to provide more transparent information on operating expenses to assist investors in identifying and understanding the information they use.
- Summary of material accounting policies
The material accounting policies are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.
(1) Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers ("the Regulations"), IFRS, IASs, IFRIC and SIC, which are endorsed by FSC (collectively referred herein as the "IFRSs").
(2) Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments, defined benefit liabilities and investment property that have been measured at fair value. The consolidated financial statements are expressed in thousands of New Taiwan Dollars ("NT$") unless otherwise stated.
(3) Basis of consolidation
Preparation principle of consolidated financial statements
Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
16
Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
A. power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee),
B. exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
C. the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
A. the contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee;
B. rights arising from other contractual arrangements;
C. the Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the acquisition date, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using uniform accounting policies. All intra-Group balances, income and expenses, unrealized gains and losses and dividends resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full.
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a change of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.
Total comprehensive income of the subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
If the Group loses control of a subsidiary, it:
A. derecognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary;
B. derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest;
C. recognises the fair value of the consideration received;
D. recognises the fair value of any investment retained;
E. reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in other comprehensive income to profit or loss, or transfer directly to retained earnings if required by other IFRSs; and
F. recognises any resulting difference in profit or loss.

C. Exchange differences arising on a monetary item that forms part of a reporting entity’s net investment in a foreign operation is recognised initially in other comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on disposal of the net investment.
When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised in other comprehensive income, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income. When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised in profit or loss, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.
(5) Translation of financial statements in foreign currency
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into NT$ at the closing rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and their income and expenses are translated at an average rate for the period. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognised in other comprehensive income. On the disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences relating to that foreign operation, recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the separate component of equity, is reclassified from equity to profit or loss when the gain or loss on disposal is recognised. On the partial disposal of foreign operations that result in a loss of control, loss of significant influence but retain partial equity is considered disposal.
On the partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation that does not result in a loss of control, the proportionate share of the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognised in other comprehensive income is re-attributed to the non-controlling interests in that foreign operation. In partial disposal of an associate or joint arrangement that includes a foreign operation that does not result in a loss of significant influence or joint control, only the proportionate share of the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss.
Any goodwill and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and expressed in its functional currency.
(6) Current and non-current distinction
An asset is classified as current when:
A. The Group expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal operating cycle
B. The Group holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading
C. The Group expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting period
D. The asset is cash or cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when:
A. The Group expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle
B. The Group holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading
C. The liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period
D. The Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. 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.
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
(7) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term, highly liquid time deposits or investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(8) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments are recognised initially at fair value plus or minus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.
A. Financial instruments: Recognition and Measurement
The Group accounts for regular way purchase or sales of financial assets on the trade date.
The Group classified financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss considering both factors below:
(a) the Group’s business model for managing the financial assets and
(b) the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
Financial asset measured at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets were classified as measured at amortised cost or measured at fair value through other comprehensive income based on aforementioned criteria. All other financial assets were measured at fair value through profit or loss and presented on the balance sheet as financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss.
Such financial assets are measured at fair value, the gains or losses resulting from remeasurement is recognised in profit or loss which includes any dividend or interest received on such financial assets.
Financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the following conditions are met:
(a) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and
(b) the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Recognition of gain or loss on a financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are described as below:
(a) A gain or loss on a financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income recognised in other comprehensive income, except for impairment gains or losses and foreign exchange gains and losses, until the financial asset is derecognised or reclassified.
(b) When the financial asset is derecognised the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment.
(c) Interest revenue is calculated by using the effective interest method. This is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for:
(i) Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Group applies the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the financial asset from initial recognition.
(ii) Financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets but subsequently have become credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Group applies the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the financial asset in subsequent reporting periods.

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
Besides, for certain equity investments within the scope of IFRS 9 that is neither held for trading nor contingent consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which IFRS 3 applies, the Group made an irrevocable election to present the changes of the fair value in other comprehensive income at initial recognition. Amounts presented in other comprehensive income shall not be subsequently transferred to profit or loss (when disposal of such equity instrument, its cumulated amount included in other components of equity is transferred directly to the retained earnings) and these investments should be presented as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income on the balance sheet. Dividends on such investment are recognised in profit or loss unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of investment.
Financial assets measured at amortised cost
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met and presented as note receivables, trade receivables, financial assets measured at amortised cost and other receivables etc., on balance sheet as at the reporting date:
(a) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and
(b) the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging relationship. A gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss when the financial asset is derecognised, through the amortisation process or in order to recognise the impairment gains or losses.
Interest revenue is calculated by using the effective interest method. This is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for:
(a) purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Group applies the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the financial asset from initial recognition.
(b) financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets but subsequently have become credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the Group applies the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the financial asset in subsequent reporting periods.

B. Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on debt instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial asset measured at amortised cost. The loss allowance on debt instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income and not reduce the carrying amount in the balance sheet.
The Group measures expected credit losses of a financial instrument in a way that reflects:
(a) an unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes;
(b) the time value of money; and
(c) reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
The loss allowance is measures as follow:
(a) At an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses: the credit risk on a financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition or the financial asset is determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date. In addition, the Group measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses in the previous reporting period, but determines at the current reporting date that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition is no longer met.
(b) At an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses: the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition or financial asset that is purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset.
(c) For trade receivables or contract assets arising from transactions within the scope of IFRS 15, the Group measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.
(d) For lease receivables arising from transactions within the scope of IFRS 16, the Group measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.
At each reporting date, the Group needs to assess whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition by comparing the risk of a default occurring at the reporting date and the risk of default occurring at initial recognition. Please refer to Note 12 for further details on credit risk.

C. Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognised when:
(a) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired
(b) The Group has transferred the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset have been transferred
(c) The Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration received or receivable including any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income, is recognised in profit or loss.
D. Financial liabilities and equity
Classification between liabilities or equity
The Group classifies the instrument issued as a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial liability, and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. The transaction costs of an equity transaction are accounted for as a deduction from equity (net of any related income tax benefit) to the extent they are incremental costs directly attributable to the equity transaction that otherwise would have been avoided.
Compound instruments
The Group evaluates the terms of the convertible bonds issued to determine whether it contains both a liability and an equity component. Furthermore, the Group assesses if the economic characteristics and risks of the put and call options contained in the convertible bonds are closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host contract before separating the equity element.
For the liability component excluding the derivatives, its fair value is determined based on the rate of interest applied at that time by the market to instruments of comparable credit status. The liability component is classified as a financial liability measured at amortised cost before the instrument is converted or settled.
28
Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
For the embedded derivative that is not closely related to the host contract (for example, if the exercise price of the embedded call or put option is not approximately equal on each exercise date to the amortised cost of the host debt instrument), it is classified as a liability component and subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it qualifies for an equity component. The equity component is assigned the residual amount after deducting from the fair value of the instrument as a whole the amount separately determined for the liability component. Its carrying amount is not remeasured in the subsequent accounting periods. If the convertible bond issued does not have an equity component, it is accounted for as a hybrid instrument in accordance with the requirements under IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.
Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the convertible bond based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are initially recognised.
On conversion of a convertible bond before maturity, the carrying amount of the liability component being the amortised cost at the date of conversion is transferred to equity.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities measured at amortised cost upon initial recognition.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost include interest bearing loans and borrowings that are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate method after initial recognition. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the effective interest rate method amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or transaction costs.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
(9) Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
A. In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
B. In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to by the Group.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
(10) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads allocated based on normal operating capacity. It excludes borrowing costs. 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 estimated cost of completion and applicable variable selling expenses.
Except for recognising profit or loss using the completed contract method, costs are stated at acquisition cost basis during construction. In accordance with IFRSs, the related interest expense is capitalised.

(11) Investments accounted for using the equity method
The Group’s investment in its associate is accounted for using the equity method other than those that meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale. An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence.
Under the equity method, the investment in the associate is carried in the balance sheet at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate. After the interest in the associate is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognised, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s related interest in the associate.
When changes in the net assets of an associate occur and not those that are recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income and do not affect the Group’s percentage of ownership interests in the associate, the Group recognises such changes in equity based on its percentage of ownership interests. The resulting capital surplus recognised will be reclassified to profit or loss at the time of disposing the associate on a prorata basis.
When the associate issues new stock, and the Group’s interest in an associate is reduced or increased as the Group fails to acquire shares newly issued in the associate proportionately to its original ownership interest, the increase or decrease in the interest in the associate is recognised in Additional Paid in Capital and Investment accounted for using the equity method. When the interest in the associate is reduced, the cumulative amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss or other appropriate items. The aforementioned capital surplus recognised is reclassified to profit or loss on a pro rata basis when the Group disposes the associate.
The financial statements of the associate are prepared for the same reporting period as the Group. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.
The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount in the ‘share of profit or loss of an associate’ in the statement of comprehensive income. In determining the value in use of the investment, the Group estimates:
31
Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
A. Its share of the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the associate, including the cash flows from the operations of the associate and the proceeds on the ultimate disposal of the investment; or
B. The present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from dividends to be received from the investment and from its ultimate disposal.
Because goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate is not separately recognised, it is not tested for impairment separately by applying the requirements for impairment testing goodwill.
Upon loss of significant influence over the associate, the Group measures and recognises any retaining investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retaining investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.
(12) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes the cost of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located and borrowing costs for construction in progress if the recognition criteria are met. 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 is depreciated separately. When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced in intervals, the Group recognised such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives and depreciation, respectively. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced. When a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic lives of the following assets:
| Buildings | 1-60 years |
|---|---|
| Machinery and equipment | 1-25 years |
| Transportation equipment | 1-12 years |
| Office equipment | 1-15 years |
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is recognised in profit or loss.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

(13) Investment property
An investment property is stated initially at its cost and measured subsequently using the fair value model. A gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value of investment property is recognised in profit or loss.
(14) Leases
The Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time, the Group assesses whether, throughout the period of use, has both of the following:
A. the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset; and
B. the right to direct the use of the identified asset.
For a contract that is, or contains, a lease, the Group accounts for each lease component within the contract as a lease separately from non-lease components of the contract. For a contract that contains a lease component and one or more additional lease or non-lease components, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components. The relative stand-alone price of lease and non-lease components shall be determined on the basis of the price the lessor, or a similar supplier, would charge the Group for that component, or a similar component, separately. If an observable stand-alone price is not readily available, the Group estimates the stand-alone price, maximising the use of observable information.
Group as a lessee
Except for leases that meet and elect short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Group recognises right-of-use asset and lease liability for all leases which the Group is the lessee of those lease contracts.
At the commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate. At the commencement date, the lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following payments for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term that are not paid at the commencement date:
33
Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
A. fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable;
B. variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;
C. amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;
D. the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and
E. payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.
After the commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability on an amortised cost basis, which increases the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability by using an effective interest method; and reduces the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.
At the commencement date, the Group measures the right-of-use asset at cost. The cost of the right-of-use asset comprises:
A. the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability;
B. any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received;
C. any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and
D. an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.
For subsequent measurement of the right-of-use asset, the Group measures the right-of-use asset at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. That is, the Group measures the right-of-use applying a cost model.
If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease term or if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase option, the Group depreciates the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the Group depreciates the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term.
The Group applies IAS 36 Impairment of Assets to determine whether the right-of-use asset is impaired and to account for any impairment loss identified.
Except for those leases that the Group accounted for as short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Group presents right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the balance sheet and separately presents lease-related interest expense and depreciation charge in the statement of comprehensive income.
For short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Group elects to recognise the lease payments associated with those leases as an expense on either a straight-line basis over the lease term or another systematic basis.
34
Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
Group as a lessor
At inception of a contract, the Group classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. At the commencement date, the Group recognises assets held under a finance lease in its balance sheet and present them as a receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease.
For a contract that contains lease components and non-lease components, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract applying IFRS 15.
The Group recognises lease payments from operating leases as rental income on either a straight-line basis or another systematic basis. Variable lease payments for operating leases that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as rental income when incurred.
(15) Intangible assets
Goodwill arises in a business combination accounted for by applying the acquisition method. Goodwill shall be tested annually for impairment, and recognised based on the cost less accumulated depreciation. Impairment loss of goodwill previously recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed.
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.
Other intangible assets, mainly acquired special technology, are amortised using the straight line method over 3 years.
(16) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that an asset in the scope of IAS 36 Impairment of Assets may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's or cash-generating unit's ("CGU") fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
35
Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been an increase in the estimated service potential of an asset which in turn increases the recoverable amount. However, the reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.
A cash generating unit, or groups of cash-generating units, to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually at the same time, irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment. If an impairment loss is to be recognised, it is first allocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash generating unit (group of units), then to the other assets of the unit (group of units) pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit (group of units). Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods for any reason.
An impairment loss of continuing operations or a reversal of such impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
(17) Treasury shares
Own equity instruments which are reacquired (treasury shares) are recognised at cost and deducted from equity. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration is recognised in equity.
(18) Revenue recognition
A. Sales of goods
(a) Sales are recognised when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has full discretion over the channel and price to sell the products, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer’s 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 Group has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
(b) 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.
36
Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
B. Land development and resale
(a) The Group develops and sells residential properties. Revenue is recognised when control over the property has been transferred to the customer. The properties have generally no alternative use for the Group due to contractual restrictions. However, an enforceable right to payment does not arise until legal title has passed to the customer. Therefore, revenue is recognised at a point in time when the legal title has passed to the customer.
(b) The revenue is measured at an agreed upon amount under the contract. The consideration is due when legal title has been transferred. While deferred payment terms may be agreed in rare circumstances, the deferral never exceeds twelve months. The transaction price is therefore not adjusted because the contract does not include a significant financing component.
(19) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.
(20) Post-employment benefits
All regular employees of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries are entitled to a pension plan that is managed by an independently administered pension fund committee. Fund assets are deposited under the committee's name in the specific bank account and hence, not associated with the Company and its domestic subsidiaries. Therefore, fund assets are not included in the Group's consolidated financial statements. Pension benefits for employees of the overseas subsidiaries and the branches are provided in accordance with the respective local regulations.
For the defined contribution plan, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries will make a monthly contribution of no less than 6% of the monthly wages of the employees subject to the plan. The Company recognises expenses for the defined contribution plan in the period in which the contribution becomes due. Overseas subsidiaries and branches make contribution to the plan based on the requirements of local regulations.
Post-employment benefit plan that is classified as a defined benefit plan uses the Projected Unit Credit Method to measure its obligations and costs based on actuarial assumptions. Re-measurements, comprising of the effect of the actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling (excluding net interest) and the return on plan assets, excluding net interest, are recognised as other comprehensive income with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings in the period in which they occur. Past service costs are recognised in profit or loss on the earlier of:
A. the date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and
B. the date that the Group recognises restructuring-related costs.
37
Yem Chio Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset, both as determined at the start of the annual reporting period, taking account of any changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset) during the period as a result of contribution and benefit payment.
(21) Income taxes
Income tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.
Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Current income tax relating to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity and not in profit or loss.
The income tax for undistributed earnings is recognised as income tax expense in the subsequent year when the distribution proposal is approved by the Shareholders' meeting.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:
A. Where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss;
B. In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint arrangements, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized, except:
A. Where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss;
B. In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint arrangements, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised accordingly.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current income tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
According to the temporary exception in the International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules (Amendments to IAS 12), information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income tax will neither be recognized nor be disclosed.
- Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements require management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. However, uncertainty about these assumption and estimate could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods.
(1) Judgement
None.
(2) Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
A. Inventories
As inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, the Group must determine the net realisable value of inventories on balance sheet date using judgements and estimates. The Group evaluates the amounts of normal inventory consumption and obsolete inventories 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.

B. Investment property
The fair value valuation of investment property relies on the real estate appraisers to determine future cash flows, discount rate and profit or loss which is likely to accrue or incur afterwards based on the experts' judgement, utilisation of the assets and industrial characteristics. Any changes of economic circumstances or estimates due to the change of the Group's strategy might affect the value of investment property.

Components of building that have different useful lives are main building structure, air conditioning units and elevators, which are depreciated over 60 years, 8 years and 10 years, respectively.
Due to intense industry competition and changes in product demand, the Group plans to sell the thin film production line. After evaluation in the 2024, an impairment loss of $164,459 is expected to be recognized for the related real estate, plant, and equipment. In addition, considering the operational adjustment of a subsidiary, the Group intends to change the classification of a building. Therefore, the entire amount of leasehold improvements related to the building will be fully impaired, amounting to $61,804. The total impairment loss of $226,263 has been recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
Amount of borrowing costs capitalised as part of property, plant and equipment were $1,704 and $1,843, and the range of interest rates for such capitalisation were both 2.00% for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The fair value of the Group's office buildings and plants is measured using the discounted cash flow analysis of income approach. Valuation is based on local rents and rents of similar objects, which are used to determine the annual increase range in the rents. Net rental income for the next 10 years is estimated based on idling loss. The estimated net rental income plus the ending disposal value is the future cash inflow, which is calculated to the appraisal date by using appropriate discount rate. Future cash outflow is estimated based on the Company's current operations and possible future changes and future cash outflow refers to expenses directly related to operations, such as land value tax, house tax, insurance fees, management fees and repair expense that were actually incurred for the year.
Discount rate range is set in the table below. Discount rates are based on the interest rate for a two-year deposit of a small amount, as posted by the Chunghwa Post Co. Ltd., plus 0.75 percentage points; while the discount rates used by the Group's China subsidiaries are based on the rate of 10 years national debt issued by the Bank of China. Risk premium is determined based on liquidity, risk, value increment and the difficulty of management.

| Total | $301,399 | $278,274 |
Goodwill is allocated to the cash-generating units identified by the Group. The recoverable amount of all cash-generating units has been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by the management covering a five-year period.
In 2025, one of the storage facility of ACHEM Industry America Inc. ceased operations, resulting in a decrease in the expected future cash flows of the related cash-generating unit. Following an impairment assessment, the Group recognized an impairment loss of $35,574 on the goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit.
The recoverable amount of all cash-generating units calculated using the value-in-use exceeded their carrying amount, so goodwill was not impaired. The key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations are gross profit margin, growth rate and discount rate. Management determined budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectations of market development. The weighted average growth rates used are consistent with the forecasts included in industry reports. The discount rates used are pre-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the relevant operating segments.

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 Bank of Taiwan was commissioned to manage the Fund of the Company's and domestic subsidiaries' 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-the-counter, or private placement equity securities, investment in domestic or foreign real estate securitization 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 and its domestic subsidiaries have no right to participate in managing and operating that fund and hence the Company and its domestic subsidiaries are unable to disclose the classification of plan asset fair value in accordance with IAS 19 paragraph 142. The composition of fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 is given in the Annual Labor Retirement Fund Utilisation Report announced by the government.
The principal actuarial assumptions used were as follows:
| Year Ended December 31 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Discount rate | 1.3% | 1.50%~1.60% |
| Future salary increases | 2.00%~3.00% | 2.00%~3.00% |
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, assumptions regarding future mortality rate were both estimated in accordance with the 6th Taiwan Standard Ordinary Experience Mortality Table, respectively. Future mortality rate of the Company and domestic subsidiaries was set based on the improved Taiwan's published annuity table.
Because the main actuarial assumption changed, the present value of defined benefit obligation is affected. The analysis was as follows:
| Discount rate | Future salary increases | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Increase 0.25% | Decrease 0.25% | Increase 0.25% | Decrease 0.25% | |
| December 31, 2025 | ||||

The sensitivity analysis above was arrived at 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.
Expected contributions to the defined benefit pension plans of the Group for the year ending December 31, 2026 amounted to $2,496.
As of December 31, 2025, the weighted average duration of that retirement plan is 5 years.
Effective July 1, 2005, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries have 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 and its domestic subsidiaries contribute 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.
The Company's China subsidiaries have a defined contribution plan. Monthly contributions to an independent fund administered by the government in accordance with the pension regulations in the People's Republic of China (PRC) are based on certain percentage of employees' monthly salaries and wages. Other than the monthly contributions, the Group has no further obligations.
The pension costs under the defined contribution pension plan of the Company and local subsidiaries for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024 were $32,896 and $33,923, respectively.
The contributions to pension costs under the local employment act of the overseas subsidiaries for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024 were $40,394 and $36,270, respectively.

(2) Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s principal financial risk management objective is to manage the market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk related to its operating activates. The Group identifies measures and manages the aforementioned risks based on the Group’s policy and risk etite.
Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Group treasury) under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Group treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the Group’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.
(3) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of the changes in market prices. Market prices comprise currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk.
In practice, it is rarely the case that a single risk variable will change independently from other risk variable, there is usually interdependencies between risk variables. However, the sensitivity analysis disclosed below does not take into account the interdependencies between risk variables.

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
Foreign currency risk
The Group operates internationally and is exposed to exchange rate risk arising from the transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries used in various functional currency, primarily with respect to the USD and RMB. Exchange rate risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities.
Management has set up a policy to require group companies to manage their foreign exchange risk against their functional currency. The companies are required to hedge their entire foreign exchange risk exposure with the Group treasury.
The Group has certain investments in foreign operations, whose net assets are exposed to foreign currency translation risk.
The foreign currency sensitivity analysis of the possible change in foreign exchange rates on the Group's profit is performed on significant monetary items denominated in foreign currencies as at the end of the reporting period. The Group's foreign currency risk is mainly related to the volatility in the exchange rates for USD and RMB. The information of the sensitivity analysis is as follows:
A. When NTD strengthens/weakens against USD by 5%, the profit for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 is decreased/increased by $73,222 and $79,666, respectively.
B. When USD strengthens/weakens against RMB dollar by 5%, the profit for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 is increased/decreased by $38,571 and $20,702, respectively.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group's long-term borrowings. During 2025 and 2024, the Group's borrowings at variable rate were mainly denominated in NTD, USD and RMB.
The Group'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.
The interest rate sensitivity analysis is performed on items exposed to interest rate risk as at the end of the reporting period, including investments and borrowings with variable interest rates and interest rate swaps. At the reporting date, a change of 5% of interest rate in a reporting period could cause the profit for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 to decrease/increase by $21,352 and $16,062, respectively.

Equity price risk
The Group’s equity securities, which are exposed to price risk, are the held financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Group diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the Group.
The Group’s investments in equity securities comprise shares and open-end funds issued by the domestic 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 5% with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 would have increased/decreased by $10,421 and $8,232, respectively, as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Other components of equity would have increased/decreased by $105,938 and $74,160, respectively, as a result of other comprehensive income classified as equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.
(4) Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from operating activities (primarily for notes receivable and accounts receivable) and financing activities (primarily for various financial instrument).
The Group manages their credit risk taking into consideration the entire group’s concern. For banks and financial institutions, only banks and financial institutions with optimal credit ratings are accepted. According to the Group’s credit policy, each local entity in the Group 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.
According to the internal management policy of the Group, that is, the default occurs when the contract payments are past due over 240 days.
The Group adopts the following assumption under IFRS 9 to assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition:
If the contract payments were past due over 30 days based on the terms, there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, except as otherwise indicated)
The Group applies the simplified approach using the provision matrix to estimate expected credit loss to assess the Group’s accounts receivable.
The following indicators are used to determine whether the credit impairment of debt instruments has occurred:
A. It becomes probable that the issuer will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization due to their financial difficulties;
B. The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;
C. Default or delinquency in interest or principal repayments;
D. Adverse changes in national or regional economic conditions that are expected to cause a default.
The Group wrote-off the financial assets, which cannot be reasonably expected to be recovered, after initiating recourse procedures. However, the Group will continue executing the recourse procedures to secure their rights.
The Group applied historical and timely information to assess the default possibility. The simplified approach using the provision matrix provides matrix to estimate loss allowance of accounts receivable and the movements in loss allowance for notes and accounts receivable please refer to Note 6(19).
(5) Liquidity risk management
The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of cash and cash equivalents, highly liquid equity investments, bank borrowings, convertible bonds and finance leases, etc. The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Group’s financial liabilities based on the contractual undiscounted payments and contractual maturity. The payment amount includes the contractual interest. The undiscounted payment relating to borrowings with variable interest rates is extrapolated based on the estimated interest rate yield curve as of the end of the reporting period.
The table below analyses the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date for non-derivative financial liabilities. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

(7) Fair value information
A. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole. Level 1, 2 and 3 inputs are described as follows:
Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. The fair value of the Group's investment in listed stocks is included in Level 1.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities. The fair value of redemption rights of convertible corporate bonds issued by the Group and wealth management products are included in Level 3.

B. Financial instruments not measured at fair value
Except for bonds payable, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, financial assets at amortised cost, notes receivable, accounts receivable (including related parties), other receivables (including related parties), short-term borrowings, short-term notes and bills payable, notes payable, accounts payable (including related parties) and other payables (including related parties) are approximate to their fair values. Interest rates of long-term borrowings (including maturity within 1 year or 1 operating cycle) are approximately the same as market interest rates, thus, the carrying amount should be a reasonable basis for fair value estimation.
The bonds payable are convertible corporate bonds issued by the Company, with a coupon rate approximately equivalent to the current market rate. Therefore, the fair value is estimated using the present value of the expected cash flows approximate to the carrying amount.
The financial instruments not measured at fair value were both $0 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
C. The related information on financial instruments measured at fair value by level on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the assets are as follows:

(b) The methods and assumptions the Group measure the fair value are as follows:
i. The instruments the Group 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 instruments is measured by using valuation techniques. The fair value of financial instruments measured by using valuation techniques can be referred to valuation methods.
iii. Under the "Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers", the Group makes self-assessment using the income approach to calculate the fair value of investment property. Related assumptions and information on inputs are as follows:
(i) Cash flow: Cash flow shall be evaluated on the basis of existing lease contracts, rent at local market rates, or current market rents for similar comparable properties in the same location and condition, and overvalued and undervalued comparable properties shall be excluded. If there is a period-end value, the discounted present period-end value may be added.
(ii) Analysis period: When there is no specified period for the income, the analysis period in principle shall not be longer than 10 years; when there is a specified period for the income, the income shall be estimated for the remainder of the specified period.
(iii) Discount rate: The discount rate shall be determined using the risk premium approach only, with the calculation based on a certain interest rate, plus the estimate for the individual characteristics of the investment property. The phrase "based on a certain interest rate" means the interest rate may not be lower than the floating interest rate on a 2-year time deposit of a small amount, as posted by the Chunghwa Post Co. Ltd., plus 0.75 percentage points; while the discount rates used by the Group's China subsidiaries are based on the rate of 10 years national debt issued by the Bank of China.
D. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2.

H. Treasury segment is in charge of valuation procedures for fair value measurements being categorized within Level 3, which is to verify independent fair value of financial instruments. Such assessment is to ensure the valuation results are reasonable by applying independent information to make results close to current market conditions, confirming the resource of information is independent, reliable and in line with other resources and represented as the exercisable price, and making any other necessary adjustments to the fair value. Investment property and call options and put options of convertible corporate bonds are evaluated through outsourced appraisal performed by the external valuer.
I. The following is the qualitative information of significant unobservable inputs and sensitivity analysis of changes in significant unobservable inputs to valuation model used in Level 3 fair value measurement:
