Auditing Report of the Certified Accountants

To the Board of Directors of Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd.:

Audit Opinion

We have completed our review of Young Fast Optoelectronics Co. Balance Sheet for December 31, 2022 and 2021; and Statements of Comprehensive Income, Statements of Changes in Equity, Statements of Cash Flows, and Notes to the Parent Company Only Financial Statements (including a summary of significant accounting policies) for January 1 – December 31, 2022 and 2021.

In our opinion, the aforementioned parent company only financial statements in all material respects are in compliance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers. They are sufficient to adequately express the financial status of Young Fast Optoelectronics Co. as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and its financial performance and cash flows from January 1 through December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants of the Republic of China (the “Norm”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Norm. 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 2022 parent company only financial statements of Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. 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, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In our judgment, revenue recognition constitutes a key audit matter to be communicated in the audit report.

For details of accounting policies regarding revenue recognition, please refer to Note 4 (16) of the parent company only financial statements on Recognition of Revenue; for details of revenue related disclosures, please refer to Note 6 (21) the parent company only financial statements.

Explanation of Key Audit Matters:

Sales revenue of Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. stands as the primary indicator for investors and management in evaluating its financial or business performance. Moreover, as a listed company, Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. is highly regarded by the investing public. Therefore, we identify revenue recognition as an important item in the audit of current year financial statements.

Corresponding Audit Procedures:

Our main audit procedures regarding the above key audit matters include:

  • Testing the effectiveness of internal control design and implementation related to revenue recognition.

  • Conducting trend analysis for the top ten customers in terms of sales, including a comparison of the customer list and sales revenue amounts between the current period and the most recent period and the same period of last year to assess whether there are any significant abnormalities. If there are major changes, the causes are identified and analyzed.

  • Sampling and checking sales transactions of the whole year to evaluate the authenticity of sales transactions, the correctness of the recognized amounts of sales revenue, and the reasonableness of the time of accounting.

  • Testing a sample of sales transactions in the period before and after the end of the year to assess whether the timing of revenue recognition is appropriate.

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 requirements of 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 ability to continue as a going concern of Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd., disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance (including the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd.

3-1

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 auditing standards generally accepted in 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 parent company only financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also perform the following tasks:

  1. 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.

  2. 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 Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd.

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

  4. 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 Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. 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 Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. to cease to continue as a going concern.

3-2

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

  2. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on these parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion regarding Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd.

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 2022 parent company only financial statements of Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. 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

  2. The main content of the amendment includes the following:

  3. Entities are required to disclose their material, as opposed to important, accounting policies;

  4. Entities are required to state that the accounting policies in relation to immaterial transactions or other matters or circumstances are immaterial and thus need not be disclosed.

9

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

Regarding IFRSs that have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) but have not yet been endorsed by the FSC, points of likely concern are as follows:

Effective date New or amended of IASB standards Main points of amendment publication Amendments to IAS 1 Under existing IAS 1 requirements, January 1, 2024 “Classification of Liabilities companies classify a liability as as Current or Non-current” current when they do not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting date. The amended clause has removed the requirement for a right to be unconditional and instead now requires that a right to defer settlement must exist at the reporting date and have substance. The amendments also clarify how a company classifies a liability that can be settled in its own shares – e.g. convertible debt.

The Company is evaluating the impact of its initial adoption of the above mentioned standards or interpretations on its consolidated financial position and consolidated financial performance. The results thereof will be disclosed when the Company completes its evaluation.

  • Amendment to IFRS 17 “Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 – Comparative Information”

  • Amendments to IFRS 16 “Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback”

IV. Summary of significant accounting policies

A summary of the significant accounting policies adopted in the parent company

10

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

only financial statements is as follows. The following accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the parent company only financial statements.

  • (I) Statement of compliance

The parent company only financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

  • (II) Compilation basis

1. Measurement basis

Except for the following significant items of the balance sheet, the parent company only financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis:

  • (1) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss measured at fair value;

  • (2) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income measured at fair value;

  • (3) Defined benefit liabilities are measured by adding unrecognized upfront service costs and unrecognized actuarial losses to pension fund assets, less unrecognized actuarial benefits and the present value of defined benefit obligations, and the impact of the upper limit stated in Note 4 (18).

  • Functional currency and currency of presentation

Each entity of the Company uses the currency of the primary economic environment in of said entity’s operations as its functional currency. The parent company only financial statements are expressed in the Company's functional currency, which is the New Taiwan Dollar. All financial information presented in New Taiwan Dollars is in thousands of New Taiwan Dollars.

  • (III) Foreign currencies

  • Foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency at the exchange rate as of the date of transaction. On the end date of each subsequent reporting period (the “reporting date”), foreign currency monetary items are converted into the functional currency according to the exchange rate of that date.

Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value are converted into functional currency at the exchange rate on the day when the fair value was measured. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency translation differences arising from translation are normally recognized in profit or loss. However, foreign currency translation differences arising from the translation of equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognized in other comprehensive income.

  1. Foreign operating entities

11

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

Assets and liabilities of foreign operating entities, including goodwill arising from acquisitions and fair value adjustments, are translated into the currency of presentation of the entity's financial statements at the exchange rate on the reporting date; items of income and expenses are translated into the currency of presentation of the parent company only financial statements at the average exchange rate of the current period, and the resulting exchange differences are recognized as other comprehensive income.

When disposal of a foreign operating entity results in a loss of control, joint control, or significant influence, the accumulated exchange differences related to the foreign operating entity are fully reclassified to profit or loss. In the case of partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operating entity, the relevant accumulated exchange differences are re-attributed to non-controlling interests on a pro rata basis. When partially disposing of an investment involving an affiliated enterprise or a joint venture of a foreign operating entity, the relevant accumulated exchange differences are reclassified to profit or loss on a pro rata basis.

For monetary receivables or payables to foreign operating entities, if there is no repayment plan and it is impossible to repay in the foreseeable future, the foreign currency exchange gains and losses arising therefrom are regarded as part of the net investment in the foreign operating entity and are recognized as other comprehensive income.

(IV) Classification criteria for distinguishing current and non-current assets and liabilities Assets that meet one of the following conditions are classified as current assets; all other assets that are not current assets are classified as non-current assets:

  1. The asset is expected to be recognized in its normal operating cycle, or there is intent to sell or consume it;

  2. The asset is held mainly for trading purposes;

  3. The asset is expected to be recognized within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  4. The asset is cash or a cash equivalent, unless there are other restrictions on exchanging the asset or using it to settle a liability at least twelve months after the reporting period.

Liabilities that meet one of the following conditions are classified as current liabilities; all other liabilities that are not current liabilities are classified as noncurrent liabilities:

  1. It is expected that the liability will be settled during the normal operating cycle;

  2. The liability is held mainly for trading purposes;

  3. The liability is expected to be settled within twelve months after the reporting

12

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

period; or

  1. The liability does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement to at least twelve months after the reporting period. The terms of the liability, which may be liquidated by the issuance of equity instruments at the choice of the counterparty, do not affect their classification.

  2. (V) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash includes cash on hand, checking deposits, and demand deposits. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into fixed amounts of cash with little risk of changes in value. Fixed deposits that meet the above definition and are held for short-term cash commitments, rather than investment or other purposes, are presented in cash equivalents.

Bank overdrafts are immediately repayable and form part of the company's overall cash management, and are included in the cash flow statement as a component of cash and cash equivalents.

  • (VI) Financial instruments

Accounts receivable are originally recognized as they are incurred. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are originally recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual terms of the financial instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss (except for accounts receivable that do not contain significant financial components) are originally measured at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to their acquisition or issuance. Accounts receivable that do not contain significant financial components are originally measured at their transaction prices.

  1. Financial assets

When the purchase or sale of financial assets conforms to conventional transactions, the Company shall adopt transaction-day accounting for all purchases and sales of financial assets classified in the same way.

Financial assets are classified as: financial assets at amortized cost, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The Company reclassifies all affected financial assets from the first day of the following reporting period only when changing the business model for managing financial assets.

  • (1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost

Financial assets are measured at amortized cost when they meet both of the following conditions and when they are not designated as fair value through profit or loss:

  • The financial asset is held under the operating model for the purpose of collecting contractual cash flow.

  • The contractual terms of the financial asset generate cash flows on a

13

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

specified date and entirely for the sake of payment of principal and interest on the principal amount in circulation.

The assets in question are subsequently calculated by adding or subtracting the original recognized amount to the accumulated amortization amount calculated using the effective interest method, and adjusts any measure of post amortized cost of loss allowance. Interest income, foreign currency exchange gains and losses, and impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Upon derecognition, profits or losses are to be included under profit or loss.

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

At the original time of recognition, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in fair value of investments in equity instruments not held for trading in other comprehensive income. The foregoing elections are made on the basis of the individual instrument.

Investments in equity instruments are to be subsequently measured at fair value. Dividend income is to be recognized under profit or loss (unless it clearly represents the recovery of a portion of the investment cost). Remaining net gains or losses are to be recognized as other comprehensive income and are not to be reclassified to profit or loss.

Dividend income from equity investments is to be recognized on the date when the Company is entitled to receive dividends (usually the ex-dividend date).

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

Financial assets other than those measured at amortized cost above or at fair value through other comprehensive income are to be measured at fair value through profit or loss. In order to eliminate or significantly reduce accounting misalignments at the original time of recognition, financial assets that meet the criteria to be measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income may be irrevocably designated by the Company as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

These assets are to be subsequently measured at fair value and their net gains or losses are to be recognized in profit or loss (including their associated dividends and interest income).

  • (4) Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost.

Loss allowance for bills and accounts receivables are measured based on expected credit loss during the period. Other financial assets measured at

14

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

amortized cost are based on reasonable and corroborative information (obtainable without undue cost or investment), including qualitative and quantitative information; and based on the Company's historical experience, credit assessment and analysis of forward-looking information, if the credit risk has not increased significantly since the original recognition, the impairment is measured by the twelve-month expected credit loss. If it is assessed that credit risk has increased significantly since original recognition, the impairment is measured according to the duration of the credit losses.

Expected credit loss during the period refers to the expected credit losses arising from all possible default events during the expected period of a financial instrument.

Twelve-month expected credit loss constitutes expected credit losses arising from possible defaults of financial instruments within twelve months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected duration of the financial instrument is less than twelve months).

The maximum period over which expected credit losses are measured is the maximum contractual period over which the Company is exposed to credit risk.

Expected credit losses are probability-weighted estimates of credit losses over the expected lifetime of a financial instrument. Credit losses are measured at the present value of all cash shortfalls; that is, the difference between the cash flows that the Company can receive under the contract and the cash flows that the Company expects to receive. Expected credit losses are discounted at the effective interest rate on the financial asset.

Loss allowance for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the asset's carrying amount. Amounts set aside or reversed from loss allowance are recognized in profit or loss.

When the company cannot reasonably expect to recover the financial assets in whole or in part, it directly reduces the total carrying amount of its financial assets. For company accounts, the Company analyzes the timing and amount of write-offs individually on the basis of whether they are reasonably expected to be recoverable. The Company does not expect a material reversal of the written-off amounts. However, financial assets that have been written off remain enforceable in order to comply with the Company's procedures for recovering overdue amounts.

(5) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes financial assets only upon termination of the contractual rights to cash flows from the asset, or upon transfer of the financial assets where substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the asset have

15

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

been transferred to other enterprises, or when substantially all risks and rewards of title have neither been transferred nor retained and we do not retain control of the financial asset.

When the Company enters into a transaction to transfer financial assets, if all or substantially all risks and rewards of title to the transferred assets are retained, they shall continue to be recognized on the balance sheet.

  1. Financial liabilities and equity instruments

  2. (1) Equity Instruments

An equity instrument constitutes any contract that recognizes the Company's remaining interest in assets less all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the price obtained after deducting direct issue costs.

  • (2) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss upon derecognition is also recognized in profit or loss.

  • (3) Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are to be derecognized when the contractual obligations have been fulfilled, canceled, or expired. When the terms of financial liabilities are modified and the cash flows of the modified liabilities are substantially different, the original financial liabilities are to be derecognized and new financial liabilities are to be recognized at fair value based on the modified terms.

When derecognizing a financial liability, the difference between its carrying amount and the total consideration paid or payable (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is to be recognized in profit or loss.

  • (4) Offset of financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and financial liabilities shall only be offset when the Company currently has legally enforceable rights to offset each other and intends to settle on a net basis or to realize assets and settle liabilities at the same time. They are to be offset against each other and presented on a net basis on the balance sheet.

  • (VII) Inventory

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs include acquisition, production or processing costs, and other costs incurred to bring them to a place and condition in which it is ready for use, and are calculated using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work-in-progress inventories includes an appropriate proportion of manufacturing overhead allocated

16

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

to normal production capacity.

Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price under normal operations less the estimated costs to be spent on completion and the estimated costs to complete the sale.

(VIII) Invested affiliates

An affiliate is a company over which significant influence is held over its financial and operating policies but is not controlled or jointly controlled.

The Company adopts the Equity Method to deal with equity in affiliated companies. Under the Equity Method, it is recognized at cost at the time of original acquisition and investment costs include transaction costs. The carrying amount of an investment in an affiliated company includes the goodwill identified at the time of the original investment less any accumulated impairment losses.

The parent company only financial statements cover from the date of material impact to the date of loss of material impact. After making adjustments consistent with the Company's accounting policies, the Company recognizes the amount of profit and loss and other comprehensive in come of each invested affiliate in proportion to its equity. When there is a change in non-income items and other comprehensive income of an affiliated company that does not affect the Company's associated shareholding ratio, the Company recognizes changes in equity attributable to the Company's share of the affiliated companies as capital reserve in proportion to its shareholding.

Unrealized profits and losses arising from transactions between the Company and its affiliates are only recognized in the corporate financial statements within the scope of the rights and interests of non-related party investors in the affiliated companies.

When the proportion of losses that the Company should recognize in an affiliated company is equal to or exceeds our equity in the affiliated company, recognition of such losses should be halted; and additional losses and related liabilities are to be recognized only to the extent that statutory obligations, constructive obligations, or payments have been made on behalf of the investee company.

(IX) Invested subsidiaries

When preparing parent company only financial statements, the Company adopts the equity method to evaluate invested companies with control. Under the Equity Method, the current profit and loss and other comprehensive income of the parent company only financial statements and the current profit and loss and other comprehensive income of the financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis are the same as that attributable to the owner of the parent company. Furthermore, the owner's equity in the parent company only financial statements is the same as

17

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

the equity attributable to owners of the parent in the financial statements prepared on a consolidated basis.

Changes in the Company's ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in a loss of control are treated as equity transactions with the owner.

  • (X) Investment real estate

Investment real estate is held for lease income or asset appreciation or both, constituting real estate that is not for sale in normal business, for production, provision of goods or services, or for administrative purposes. Investment real estate is originally measured at cost and subsequently it is measured by cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. Its depreciation method, useful life, and residual value shall be treated in accordance with the provisions of property, plant and equipment.

Investment real estate disposal gains or losses (calculated by the difference between the net disposal price and the carrying amount of the item) are recognized in profit or loss.

Lease income from investment real estate is recognized as non-operating income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives are recognized as part of the lease income during the leasing period.

  • (XI) Property, plant and equipment

  • Identification and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less

accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment.

When the useful lives of major components of property, plant and equipment are different, they are treated as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Disposal gains or losses from property, plant and equipment are recognized in profit or loss.

  1. Subsequent costs

Subsequent expenses are capitalized only when it is probable that their future economic benefits will flow to the Company.

3. Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated as the cost of the asset less the residual value. It is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each component.

Land is not depreciated.

Estimated useful life for the current and comparison periods are as follows:

18

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

Housing and construction 2 to 40 years
Machinery and equipment 1 to 9 years
Leased assets 3 to 20 years
Other equipment 1 to 5 years

The

Company reviews the depreciation method, useful life and salvage value on each reporting date and makes appropriate adjustments when necessary.

(XII) Leases

The Company assesses whether a contract constitutes or contains a lease on the date of establishment of the contract. If a contract transfers control over the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration, the contract constitutes or contains a lease.

1. As a lessee

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as of the lease commencement date. Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which includes the original measured amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease benefits paid on or before the lease commencement date, plus the original direct costs incurred and the estimated costs for dismantling, removing, and restoring the location or the underlying asset, and also net of any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated on a straight-line basis from the lease inception date to the expiry of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the expiry of the lease term, whichever is earlier. In addition, the Company regularly assesses whether the right-of-use asset is impaired and handles any impairment losses that have occurred. The right-of-use asset is adjusted in conjunction with the remeasurement of the lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the inception date of the lease. If the interest rate implied by the lease is easily determined, then the discount rate is that rate. If it is not easily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate of interest shall be used. Generally speaking, the Company adopts its incremental borrowing rate of interest as the discount rate.

Lease payments included in the measurement of lease liabilities include:

  • (1) Fixed payments, including substantial fixed benefits;

  • (2) Changes in lease benefits depending on an index or rate, using the index or rate on the lease commencement date as the original measure;

  • (3) The residual value guarantee amount expected to be paid; and

  • (4) The exercise price or penalty payable when it is reasonably certain that a

19

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

purchase option or lease termination option will be exercised.

Interest on a lease liability is subsequently accrued using the effective interest method, and its amount is re-measured when the following conditions occur:

  • (1) There are changes in the index or rate used to determine lease payments resulting in changes in future lease payments;

  • (2) There are changes in the residual value guarantee amount expected to be paid;

  • (3) There are changes in the assessment of the underlying asset purchase option;

  • (4) There are changes in estimates of whether to exercise extension or termination options and changes in the assessment of the lease term;

  • (5) There are modifications to the subject matter, scope, or other terms of the lease.

When the lease liability is re-measured due to the aforementioned changes in the index or rate used to determine lease payments, changes in the residual value guarantee amount, and changes in the assessment of options to purchase, extend, or terminate, the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is adjusted accordingly. When the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero, the remaining remeasured amount is recognized in profit or loss.

For lease modifications that reduce the scope of the lease, constituting a reduction in the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease, the difference between this and the remeasured amount of the lease liability is recognized in profit or loss.

The Company presents right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that do not meet the definition of investment real estate as separate line items in the balance sheet.

For short-term leasing of some office and transportation equipment and the lease of low-value target assets, the Company chooses not to recognize right-ofuse assets and lease liabilities. Instead, the related lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 2. As a lessor

In transactions where the Company is the lessor, classification of lease contracts is undertaken by whether they transfer substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the underlying asset on the lease inception date. If this is the case, a lease is classified as a finance lease; otherwise, it is classified as an operating lease. At the time of evaluation, the Company considers relevant specific indicators including whether the lease period covers the main part of the economic life of the underlying asset.

If the company is a lessor of a sublease, the main lease and sublease

20

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

transactions are handled separately. The classification of sublease transactions is also assessed with the right-of-use asset arising from the main lease. If a sublease transaction meets the definition of investment real estate, the sublease transaction shall be classified as investment real estate.

For business leases, the Company recognizes lease payments received as lease income over the lease term on a straight-line basis.

(XIII) Intangible assets

1. Identification and measurement

Intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment.

2. Subsequent expenses

Subsequent expenses are capitalized only to the extent that they increase the future economic benefits of the specific asset in question.

3. Amortization

Amortization is calculated based on the cost of the asset less the estimated residual value, and is recognized in profit or loss using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life from when the intangible asset is ready for use.

Estimated useful life for the current and comparison periods are as follows:

Computer software 3 to 8 years

The Company reviews the intangible asset amortization method, useful life and salvage value on each reporting date and makes appropriate adjustments when necessary.

  • (XIV) Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company assesses on each reporting date whether there is an indication that the carrying amount of non-financial assets may be impaired

(except for inventories, deferred tax assets, and assets arising from employee benefits). If any such sign is present, then the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated.

For the purposes of the impairment test, the smallest identifiable group of assets is formed by a group of assets whose cash inflows are largely independent of the cash inflows of other individual assets or groups of assets.

The recoverable amount is the higher of the individual asset or cash-generating unit's fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. If the recoverable amount of an individual asset or cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized.

(XV) Provisions

The recognition of a liability provision is a present obligation due to past events where it is probable that the Company will need to outflow economic resources to

21

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

settle the obligation in the future and where the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.

  1. Liability provision for after-sales service is based on historical experience, management's judgment and other known reasons to estimate possible product returns, discounts and replacements, and it is recognized as cost of goods sold in the year when the related products are sold.

  2. Decommissioning, restoration, and rehabilitation costs is to estimate the restoration cost of the leased plant that may occur in the future.

  3. (XVI) Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured as the consideration to which the transfer of goods or services is expected to be entitled. The Company recognizes revenue when control of goods or services is transferred to the customer and performance obligations are satisfied. The transfer of control of a product means that the product has been delivered to the customer, the customer can decide the sales channel and price of a product in their entirety, and there are no outstanding obligations that will affect the customer's acceptance of the product. Delivery occurs when the product is shipped to a specific location, its obsolescence and risk of loss has been passed to the customer, and the customer has accepted the product in accordance with the sales contract; or when the acceptance clause has expired or when the Company has objective evidence that all acceptance conditions have been met.

  • (XVII) Government subsidies

When the Company receives government subsidies related to salaries and working capital subsidies, the unconditional grant is recognized as other income. (XVIII) Employee benefits

  1. Defined contribution plan

Contribution obligations to a defined contribution plan are recognized as expenses during the period during which an employee provides service.

  1. Defined benefit plan

The Company's net obligation to the defined benefit plan is calculated by converting the future benefit amount earned by the employee's service in the current or previous period to the present value for each benefit plan and less the fair value of any plan assets.

Defined benefit obligations are actuated annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation result may be beneficial to the Company, recognized assets are limited to the present value of any economic benefits that would be available in the form of refunds of contributions from the program or reductions in future contributions to the program. Any minimum funding requirements are considered when calculating the present value of economic benefits.

22

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

Remeasurement of net defined benefit liability is immediately recognized in other comprehensive income and reflected in accumulated in retained earnings. This includes actuarial profit and loss, plan asset remuneration (excluding interest), and any change in the upper asset limit (excluding interest). The Company determines the net defined benefit liabilities (assets) and net interest expense (income), using the net defined benefit liabilities (assets) determined at the beginning of the annual reporting and the discount rate. Net interest expense and other expenses of defined benefit plans are recognized in profit or loss.

When a plan is revised or curtailed, the resulting change in benefits related to prior service costs or curtailment benefits or losses is immediately recognized in profit or loss. When settlement occurs, the Company recognizes the settlement gain or loss of the defined benefit plan.

  1. Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are recognized as expenses when services are provided. If the Company has a current statutory or constructive payment obligation due to the employee's past services and the obligation can be reliably estimated, this amount is recognized as a liability.

  • (XIX) Income taxes

Income taxes include current income tax and deferred income tax. Current income tax and deferred income tax are recognized in profit or loss, except for those related to business combinations, items directly recognized in equity, or other comprehensive income.

Current income tax includes taxable income (losses) based on the current year, calculated estimated income tax payable or tax refund receivable, and any adjustments to tax payable or refunds receivable from prior years. The amount is the best estimate of the amount expected to be paid or received at the statutory tax rate or substantive legislative tax rate at the reporting date.

Deferred income tax is recognized as a measure of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases. Temporary differences arising from the following situations are not recognized as deferred income tax:

  1. Assets or liabilities originally recognized in a transaction that is not a business combination and that do not affect accounting profits and taxable income (loss) at the time of the transaction;

  2. Temporary differences arising from invested subsidiaries, affiliates, and joint ventures where the Company can control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not be reversed in the foreseeable future; as well as

  3. Taxable temporary differences arising from the original recognition of goodwill.

23

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

Deferred income tax is measured at the tax rate at which the temporary difference is expected to reverse, based on statutory or substantive legislative tax rates at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only when the following conditions are met simultaneously:

  1. They have the legal enforcement right to offset current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities; and

  2. Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are related to one of the following taxpayers that are subject to income tax by the same tax authority;

(1) The same taxpayer; or

  • (2) Distinct taxpayers, but where each entity intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realize assets and settle liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets are expected to be recovered and deferred tax liabilities are expected to be settled.

Unused tax losses and unused income tax credits are recognized as deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available to the extent that the deductible temporary differences are carried forward. Furthermore, it is reassessed on each reporting date and reduced to the extent that the relevant income tax benefit is not probable to be realized; or reverses the previously reduced amount to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient taxable income will be available.

  • (XX) Earnings per share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to holders of ordinary shares of the Company. Basic earnings per share of the Company is the profit or loss attributable to the holders of ordinary shares of the Company calculated by dividing by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share refers to the profit and loss attributable to the holders of the Company's ordinary shares and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, calculated after separately adjusting for the effect of all potential dilutive ordinary shares. The Company's potentially dilutive ordinary shares include employee remuneration.

  • (XXI) Segment information

The Company has disclosed departmental information in the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, parent company only financial statements do not disclose departmental information.

V. Significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of estimation uncertainty:

The preparation of the parent company only financial statements in conformity with

24

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Management continues to review estimates and underlying assumptions. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which they are changed and in the future periods that are affected.

The parent company only financial statements involve significant judgment on whether the investee company Epoch Chemtronics Corp. involves substantial control, and this in turn has a significant impact on the amount recognized in the parent company only financial statements. For related information, please refer to the consolidated financial statements for 2022.

The parent company only financial statements contain no information such that the accounting policies involve significant estimates and assumptions that have a material impact on the amounts recognized in the parent company only financial statements.

The Company executed an accounts receivable factoring contract with domestic financial institutions in 2022. Under the contract, the Company need not assume the risk of the transferred accounts receivable being unrecovered but only need bear the losses arising from business disputes. In addition, the Company does not participate in the transferred accounts receivable anymore in any way, and a credit risk coverage rate up to 90% has been provided by banks. As of December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any factored accounts receivable. In addition, The Company did not execute any accounts receivable factoring contract with any domestic financial institution in 2021.

As of December 31, 2022, the cap on factored accounts receivable under the contract executed by the Company and the bank was 12,284 thousand.

The Company applies the simplified approach to provide for its expected credit losses for all notes and accounts receivable, i.e., using the measurement of expected credit loss during the period. To measure the expected credit losses, such notes receivable and accounts receivable have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due, as well as incorporating forward looking information, including macroeconomic and relevant industry information. According to the historical experience of the Company's credit losses, there is no significant difference in the loss patterns of different customer groups. Therefore the provision matrix does not further differentiate customer groups.

According to historical experience, the Company's accounts receivable due from related parties have experienced no credit losses, and we also consider that as of the balance sheet date, the accounts receivable due from related parties have not been overdue and there is no other indication that the credit quality of accounts receivable due from related parties has changed from the original credit dates.

27

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

Therefore, the company's assessment of accounts receivable due from related parties is that they will not generate credit losses, and they are not included for calculation in the analysis table of expected credit losses.

Analysis of expected credit losses of the Company's notes receivable and accounts receivable (excluding related parties) is as follows:

The opening balances of contract liabilities on January 1, 2022 and 2021 were recognized as revenue in 2022 and 2021, amounting to NTD 2,335 thousand and NTD 14,303 thousand respectively.

(XXII) Remuneration of employees and directors

According to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, if there is profit for the year then not less than 2% shall be set aside for employees’ remuneration and not more than 1.5% shall be set aside as remuneration for directors. However, when the Company still has accumulated losses, it should reserve the compensatory amount in advance. Stock or cash may be distributed to persons to whom employee remuneration is to be distributed as in the preceding paragraph, including employees of controlling or subordinate companies meeting certain conditions.

The Company’s estimated amounts of employee remuneration for 2022 and 2021were NTD 8,636 thousand and NTD 6,353 thousand respectively. The corresponding estimated amounts for directors' remuneration were NTD 6,463 thousand and NTD 4,765 thousand. The estimated amounts mentioned above are calculated based on net profit before tax of the Company, excluding remuneration to employees and directors, and multiplied by the percentage of remuneration to employees and directors as stipulated in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. These remunerations were reported under operating expenses. The differences between the actual distributed amounts, as determined by the Board of Directors, and those recognized in the financial statements, if any, shall be accounted for as

46

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

changes in accounting estimates and recognized in profit or loss in the following year. Relevant information can be inquired through the Market Observation Post System. If the Board of Directors decides to pay employee compensation in stock, the numbers of shares to be distributed were calculated based on the closing price of the Company’s shares one day before the date of the decision of the Board of Directors.

The estimated compensation to directors and employees recognized in the 2021 consolidated financial statements differed from the distribution amount approved by the Board of Directors meeting dated May 11, 2022 by (142) thousand, primarily due to variation in accounting estimates. Such differences were accounted for as changes in accounting estimates, and recognized in profit or loss of 2022. For details, see the Market Observation Post System (MOPS).

(XXIV) Financial instruments

1. Credit risk

(1) Credit risk exposure

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit risk exposure amount.

(2) Concentration of credit risk

Among the balances of accounts receivable and notes receivable of the Company as at 31 December 2022 and 2021, three major customers accounted for 51% and 63% respectively.

  • (3) Credit risk on receivables and financial assets at amortized cost

For credit risk exposure of notes receivable and accounts receivable, please refer to Note 6 (5). For credit risk exposure of other receivables and long-term receivables, please refer to Note 6 (6). Other receivables, long-term receivables and other financial assets measured at amortized cost are financial assets with low credit risk. The loss allowance for that period is therefore measured at the twelve-month expected credit loss amount.

2. Liquidity risk

The Company manages and maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents to support the Company's operations and mitigate the impact of fluctuations in cash flow. The Company's management supervises the use of bank financing lines and ensures compliance with terms of the loan contracts.

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments and excluding the impact of netting agreements.

(2) Sensitivity analysis

The Company’s exposure to exchange rate risk arises from the translation

of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable (including related parties), accounts payable (including related parties), and other payables that are denominated in foreign currency. As at December 31, 2022 and 2021, if the TWD, when compared with the USD and JPY, had appreciated or depreciated 5% with all other factors remaining constant, then net profit before tax for 2022 and 2021 would have respectively increased or decreased by approximately NTD 5,611 thousand and NTD 13,880 thousand. The analysis is performed on the same basis for both periods.

(3) Exchange gains and losses on monetary items

Due to the wide variety of foreign currency transactions of the Company, gains or losses on foreign exchange are summarized as a single amount.

49

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

Foreign currency exchange gains and (losses) (including both realized and unrealized) in 2022 and 2021 were approximately NTD 29,528 thousand and NTD (4,071) thousand, respectively.

  1. Interest rate risk

The following sensitivity analysis is based on the exposure to interest rate risk of non-derivative financial instruments on the reporting date. For floating rate financial instruments, the sensitivity analysis assumes that the amounts of assets and liabilities outstanding at the reporting date were outstanding throughout the year. The rate of change used in reporting interest rates internally to key management of the Company constituted a 1% increase or decrease in interest rates; this also represented the range of changes in interest rates considered by management to be reasonably possible.

If interest rates had increased or decreased by 1% and all assuming all other variable factors remained constant, pre-tax net profit in 2022 and 2021 would have increased or decreased by approximately NTD 0 thousand and NTD 410 thousand respectively, mainly due to the Company's variable interest rate borrowings.

  1. Other market price risk

Sensitivity analyses for changes in securities prices vs. impact on items of comprehensive income at the reporting date are shown as follows (the analysis is performed on the same basis for both periods and assuming other variables remain constant):

Down 5%

6. Fair value information

  • (1) Hierarchy and fair value of financial instruments

The Company's financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The carrying amount and fair value of each category of financial assets and liabilities, including the information on fair value hierarchy were as follows; however, for financial instruments not measured at fair value whose carrying amount is reasonably close to the fair value and of lease liabilities, disclosure of fair value information is not required by the regulations:

  • (2) Valuation techniques for financial instruments measured at fair value—nonderivative financial instruments

If there is a quoted market price in an active market for a financial instrument, the fair value is based on the quoted market price in an active market. The market price announced by the major exchanges for all listed (over-the-counter) equity instruments taken as the basis for fair value. Among financial instruments held by the Company, the stocks of listed (over-the-counter listed) companies and gold passbook accounts are financial assets with standard terms and conditions and are traded in the active market, and their fair values are determined by reference to market quotations.

Except for the above-mentioned financial instruments for which there is an active market, the fair values of other financial instruments are based on valuation techniques. Fair value obtained through valuation techniques may refer to the current fair value of other financial instruments with substantially similar conditions and characteristics, discounted cash flow methods, or other valuation techniques including those calculated using models based on market information available at the balance sheet date.

Financial instruments held by the Company constitute equity instruments without an active market that are not publicly quoted and are measured at fair value. Fair value is estimated using the market comparables approach as well as net asset value. The main assumptions of the market comparables approach are based on the after-tax net profit or equity net worth of the investee and the earnings or book value multipliers derived from market quotations of comparable listed companies. This estimate has been adjusted for the discounting effect of the lack of market liquidity of the equity securities. Because the amount of equity investment estimated by the Company using the market comparable company method and net asset value to estimate the fair value is not significant, there is no intention to disclose quantitative information.

(XXV) Financial risk management

The Company's financial management department provides services for each business units including overall coordination of access to domestic and international financial market operations, supervision and management of financial risks related to the Company's operations through internal risk reports that analyze exposure in accordance with risk procedures and breadth. Such risks include market risk (including exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and other price risk), credit risk, and liquidity risk.

The Company avoids exposure to risk through derivative financial instruments to mitigate the impact of these risks. The use of derivative financial instruments is

53

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

regulated by the policies adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company, which are written principles of exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, and the use of derivative financial instruments. Internal auditors continually review policy compliance and exposure limits. The Company does not trade in financial instruments for speculative purposes (including derivative financial instruments).

  1. Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of financial losses by the Company caused by a counterparty defaulting on its contractual obligations. As of the balance sheet date, the Company's largest credit risk exposure for financial losses arising from a counterparty's failure to perform its obligations is mainly from the book values of financial assets recognized in the balance sheet.

The policy adopted by the Company is to only deal with reputable parties, and, if necessary, obtain sufficient guarantee to reduce the risk of financial loss due to default. The Company continuously monitors the credit risk insurance and the credit ratings of counterparties and distributes the total transaction amounts to customers with qualified credit ratings. The credit risk is controlled through the counterparty's credit limit, which is reviewed and approved by the Company's most competent personnel every year.

The Company continuously evaluates the financial status of accounts receivable customers. The Company has no significant credit exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties with similar characteristics. When the counterparty to a transaction is an affiliated company, the Company defines it as a counterparty with similar characteristics. The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk.

  1. Liquidity risk

The Company manages and maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents to support the Group's operations and mitigate the impact of fluctuations in cash flows. The Company's management supervises the use of bank financing lines and ensures compliance with terms of the loan contracts.

The Company's working capital is sufficient to cover its needs; therefore, there is no liquidity risk due to an inability to raise funds to fulfill contractual obligations. Bank borrowings are an important source of liquidity for the Company. As at December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company's unutilized short-term bank facilities amounted to NTD 1,384,924 thousand and NTD 1,223,246 thousand respectively. 3. Market risk

Market risk refers to changes in market prices such as changes in exchange rates, interest rates, and equity instrument prices, and the risk that this affects the Company's income or the value of financial instruments held. The objective of

54

Young Fast Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Notes to Parent Company Only Financial Statements (Continued)

market risk management is to control the exposure of market risks within an acceptable range and optimize the return on investment.

  • (1) Currency risk

The Company is exposed to exchange rate risks arising from sales, purchases, fixed deposits and borrowing transactions that are not denominated in the functional currency of the Company. The functional currency of the Group companies is mainly New Taiwan Dollars. The main denomination currencies for these transactions are New Taiwan Dollars, US Dollars, and Renminbi.

There is no significant difference or significant change in the receivables and payables of the Company. Therefore, the Company currently adopts natural hedging as the main exchange rate avoidance policy in terms of exchange rate risk.

  • (2) Interest rate risk

The Company's financial assets with fair value risk from changes in interest rates are bank deposits; financial liabilities are short-term borrowings, but the impact on the fair value of the relevant financial assets due to changes in interest rates is not material.

  • (3) Other market price risk

The Company’s holdings of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are invested in domestic gold passbook accounts as well as domestic TWSE and TPEx listed company stocks. Because they are measured at fair value, the Company will be exposed to the risk of changes in the market prices of equity securities. We thus prudently select investment targets and control the positions held for the sake of managing market risk.

  • (XXVI) Capital management

The Company's capital risk management policy is based on the existing and possible future assets, liabilities and capital structure, taking moderate risks, and earning reasonable profits for shareholders. The goal is to achieve an ideal balance between risk control and business development and to optimize shareholder value.

In addition to appropriating legal reserve and special reserve according to law, the Company retains surplus funds and capital increase premium funds for plant expansion and operating turnover. The debt ratio is controlled below 30%, and we maintain adequate asset liquidity.

(XXVII) Investing and financing activities not affecting current cash flow

The Company's investing and financing activities not affecting current cash flow in 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

  1. For acquisition of the right-of-use asset by leasing, please refer to Note 6

(11).
