Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders Yieh Hsing Enterprise Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Yieh Hsing Enterprise Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Group"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years 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 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 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, 2020. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

-4-

Key audit matters for the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 are stated as follows:

Revenue recognition

Please refer to Note 4.19 to the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policy on revenue recognition; Note 5.1.(1) for major accounting estimates and assumptions of revenue recognition; and Note 6.22 for the details of revenue recognition.

Description of key audit matter

Cause the Group engages mainly in the manufacturing and selling of wire rods and steel processed, operating revenue is one of the major item in the financial report and becomes to the concerns for users of financial statements. Therefore, we determined the revenue recognition as a key audit matter.

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Our key audit procedures included analyzing the industry trends, income types, product lines, and customers’ two-year operating income status to confirm whether there are abnormal circumstances or centralized transactions and identify possible risks; understanding and testing the internal control procedure to assess the effectiveness of the relevant internal control for revenue recognition; conducting a sample test on the sales transactions of the top ten new customers to confirm the authenticity of the sales transaction and executing sales cutoff test.

Valuation of inventory

Please refer to Note 4.8 to the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policy on inventories; Note 5.2.(4) for major accounting estimates and assumptions of inventories; and Note 6.5 for inventory valuation.

Description of key audit matter

The Group inventory amounted to $1,351,327 thousand (net of $1,356,465 thousand of total inventory less $5,138 thousand of allowance for inventory valuation loss) as of December 31, 2020, which accounted for 10.44% of total assets. The inventory valuation is measured at the lower of inventory cost and net realizable value. Given that the valuation of net realizable value of inventory has a significant impact on critical judgements and estimates and since inventory valuation is dependent on the influence of frequently volatile fluctuations of international metal price, we have thus included this item in the key audit matters.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our key audit procedures included obtaining management’s assessment data which determines the lower of inventory cost and net realizable value; sampling estimated selling prices to the most recent sales records; and assessing the appropriateness of management's basis for estimating the net realizable value.

Other Matters

We have also audited the standalone financial statements of Yieh Hsing Enterprise Co., Ltd. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 on which we have issued an unmodified opinion.

-4-1-

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 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 the 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’s 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 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 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 consolidated financial statements.

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

  1. 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.

  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 Group’s internal control.

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

-4-2-

  1. 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 Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. 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.

  2. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financia1 statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  3. 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 ethica1 requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all re1ationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 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.

  • Note 1: Unless stated otherwise, the above New IFRSs are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after their respective effective dates.

  • Note 2: Companies should apply these amendments retrospectively. However, the amendments are applicable to property, plant and equipment that are brought to the location and condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management on or after January 1, 2021.

  • Note 3: This amendment applies to contracts for which the entity has not yet fulfilled all its obligations on January 1, 2022.

  • Note 5: The amendments to IFRS 9 are applicable to swap or modification of terms of financial liabilities incurred during the annual reporting period beginning on January 1, 2022. The amendment to IAS 41 is applicable to fair value measurement during the annual reporting period beginning after January 1, 2022. The amendments to IFRS 1 are retrospectively applied to the annual reporting period beginning after January 1, 2022.

  • A. Amendments to IAS 1 “Classification of Liabilities as Current or Noncurrent” The amendments clarify that when the Group judges whether liability is classified as noncurrent, the Group should assess whether the Group has the right to defer liquidation period after the reporting period at least twelve months. If the Group has the entity’s right on the end of the reporting period, liability must be classified as non-current whatever the Group expects whether executing the right or not. If the Group must follow certain condition to obtain the right to defer settlement of liability, the Group must have completed certain condition on the end of reporting period even if lender tests the Group whether following certain condition later. The aforementioned liquidation means that transferring cash, other economic resources or the Group’s equity instruments to counterparty to let liability wipe out. If liability clause will follow counterparty’s choice to liquidate liability by the Group’s equity instruments, this option must follow the regulations of IAS 32 “Financial Instruments: Presentation” to be recognized in equity individually and doesn’t have effect on the classification of liability.

  • B. Amendment to IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use” The amendment stipulates that the sales price of the project produced in order to make property, plant and equipment reach the necessary location and state that can meet the expected operation mode of the management is not suitable as a cost reduction of the asset. The aforementioned items should be measured in accordance with IAS 2 “Inventory”, and the sales price and cost should be recognized in profit and loss in accordance with the applicable standards.

  • This amendment is applicable to factories, property and equipment that reach the necessary locations and conditions for the management's expected operation mode after January 1, 2021 (the beginning of the earliest expression period). When the Group initially applies the amendments, it will recognize the cumulative effect of the amendments applied initially as an adjustment to the opening balance of the retained earnings (or other components of equity, as appropriate) at the beginning of the earliest expression period, and re-edit the information during the comparison period.

  • C. Amendment to IAS 37 “Onerous Contract - Cost of Fulfilling a Contract” The amendment stipulates that when assessing whether the contract is onerous, “Cost of Fulfilling a Contract” should include the incremental cost of fulfilling a contract (for example, direct labor and raw materials) and the allocation of other costs directly related to fulfilling a contract (for example, the depreciation expenses of property, plant and equipment items used in fulfilling a contract are allocated).

  • The Group will recognize the cumulative effect on the retained earnings on the first application date when the amendment is first applied.

-11-

  • D. Amendment to IFRS 3“Reference to the Conceptual Framework”

The amendment is to update the index of the conceptual framework and add the requirement that the acquirer shall apply IFRIC 21“Levies”to determine whether there is an obligation to pay levies on the acquisition date.

  • E. Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018-2020

  • The annual improvement in the IFRS 2018-2020 includes amendments to certain standards. Among them, the amendment of IFRS 9 “Expenses included in the “10%” test for the purpose of derecognize financial liabilities” is to assess whether there is a significant difference between the swap of financial liabilities or the modification of terms, When comparing cash flow projections of the new and old contract terms (including the net amount of fees charged for signing a new contract or modifying the contract), whether there is a 10% difference, the aforesaid fees collected should only include the payment between the borrower and the lender paid for.

  • F. Amendments to IAS 1 ‘’Disclosure of Accounting Policies’’

This amendment is to improve the disclosure of accounting policies and provide more useful information for major users of financial statements.

  • G. Amendments to IAS 8 ‘’Definition of Accounting Estimates’’

  • This amendment defines accounting estimates as the monetary amount of financial statements subject to measurement uncertainty, and provides further explanations and examples to help companies distinguish between changes in accounting policies and changes in accounting estimates.

As of the date the Group consolidated financial statements were issued, the Group continues in evaluating the impact on its financial position and financial performance as a result of the initial adoption of the aforementioned standards or interpretations and related applicable period. The related impact will be disclosed when the Group completes the evaluation.

4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

4.1 Statement of Compliance

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, the IFRSs, IASs interpretations as well as related guidance endorsed by the FSC with the effective dates.

4.2 Basis of Preparation

  • (1) Except for the following items, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:

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

  • B. Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through other

-12-

comprehensive income.

  • C. Defined benefit liabilities recognized based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.

  • (2) The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with the IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.

4.3 Basis of Consolidation

  • (1) The basis for the consolidated financial statements:

  • A. All subsidiaries are included in the Group's consolidated financial statements. Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Consolidation of subsidiaries begins from the date the Group obtains control of the subsidiaries and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiaries.

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

  • C. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income 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.

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

  • E. When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value. That fair value is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset or the cost on initial recognition of the associate or joint venture. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. All amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary are reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained earnings as appropriate, on the same basis as would be required if the related assets or liabilities were disposed of. That is, when the Group loses control of a subsidiary, all gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary should be reclassified from equity to profit or loss, if such gains or losses would be reclassified to

-13-

profit or loss when the related assets or liabilities are disposed of.

4.4 Foreign Currencies

  • (1) Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in New Taiwan Dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency.

  • (2) In preparing the financial statements of each individual consolidated entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Such exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which they arise. Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of nonmonetary items are included in profit or loss for the year except for exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currencies are not retranslated.

-17-

  • (3) For the purposes of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated into New Taiwan Dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (attributed to noncontrolling interests as appropriate).

4.5 Classification of Current and Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities

  • (1) Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets:

  • A. Assets that are expected to be realized, or are intended to be sold or consumed within the normal operating cycle;

  • B. Assets held primarily for trading purposes;

  • C. Assets that are expected to be realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date;

  • D. Cash and cash equivalents, excluding those that are restricted, or to be exchanged or used to settle liabilities at least twelve months after the balance sheet date.

Otherwise they are classified as non-current assets.

  • (2) Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities:

  • A. Liabilities that are expected to be settled within the normal operating cycle;

  • B. Assets held primarily for trading purposes;

  • C. Liabilities that are expected to be settled within 12 months after the balance sheet date (Even if a long-term refinancing or re-arrangement of payment agreements is completed after the balance sheet date and before the issuance of the financial report is approved, it is classified as current liabilities);

  • D. Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than 12 months after balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

Otherwise they are classified as non-current liabilities.

4.6 Cash and cash equivalents

  • Cash and cash equivalents comprises cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value (including the original maturity of the time deposits within three months).

4.7 Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

  • Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value plus or minus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

-18-

  • (1) Financial assets

  • A. Category of financial assets and measurement

    • The Group adopts trade-date accounting to recognize and derecognize financial assets.

Financial assets are classified into the following categories: financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at amortized cost, and investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI.

  • a. Financial asset at FVTPL

  • Financial asset is classified as at FVTPL when the financial asset is mandatorily classified or it is designated as at FVTPL. Financial assets mandatorily classified as at FVTPL include investments in equity instruments which are not designated as at FVTOCI and debt instruments that do not meet the amortized cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria. Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss (excluding relevant dividend or interest income). Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 12(3).

  • b. Financial assets at amortized cost

  • Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost:

  • (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 assets give rise on specified date to cash flow that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial assets at amortized cost, which equals to gross carrying amount determined by the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss. Except for the following two cases, interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.

  • (a) Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets: for those financial assets, the Group applies the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized 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 shall apply the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset in subsequent reporting periods.

  • c. Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI

  • On initial recognition, the Group may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.

- - 19

Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity. The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the equity investments, instead, they will be transferred to retained earnings. Dividends on these investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are recognized in profit or loss when the Group’s right to receive the dividends is established, unless the Group’s right clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.

  • B. Impairment of financial assets

  • a. At the end of each reporting period, a loss allowance for expected credit loss is recognized for financial assets at amortized cost (including accounts receivable), investments in debt instruments that are measured at FVTOCI, lease receivable and contract assets.

  • b. The Group always recognizes lifetime Expected Credit Loss (i.e. ECL) for accounts receivables. For other financial assets, the Group recognizes lifetime ECL when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If, on the other hand, the credit risk on the financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equaling to 12-month ECL.

  • c. Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of a default occurring as the weights. 12-month ECL represents the portion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. In contrast, lifetime ECL represents the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

  • d. The Group recognizes an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account. However, the allowance for investment in debt instruments measured at FVOCI is recognized in other comprehensive gains and losses, and the carrying amount is not reduced.

  • C. Derecognition of financial assets

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

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

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

  • c. The Group neither retains nor transfers substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; however, it has not retained control of the financial asset.

-20-

On derecognition of financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the financial asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of investments in debt instruments measured at FVTOCI, the difference between the financial asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income in its entirety, the cumulative profit and loss will be transferred directly to retained earning without reclassified into profit and loss.

  • (2) Equity instruments

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.

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

  • (3) Financial liabilities

  • A. Subsequent measurement

    • Financial liabilities other than those held for trading purposes and undesignated as at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured at amortized cost at the end of each reporting periods.
  • B. Derecognition of financial liabilities

    • When the Group derecognizes financial liabilities, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss.

4.8 Inventories

Inventories, under a perpetual system, are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises raw materials, direct labor, 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 realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and applicable variable selling expenses.

4.9 Investments accounted for using equity method / associates

  • (1) Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. In general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are initially recognized at cost and are accounted for using the equity method.

-21-

  • (2) The Group’s share of its associate’s profit or loss after the date of acquisition is recognized in the Group’s profit or loss, and its share of changes in the associate’s other comprehensive income is recognized in the Group’s other comprehensive income. When the Group’s share of losses of its associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

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

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

  • (5) When the Group disposes of its investment in an associate, if it loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss, on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of. If it retains significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately in accordance with the aforementioned approach.

4.10 Property, Plant and Equipment

  • (1) Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Borrowing costs incurred during the construction period are capitalized.

  • (2) Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repair and maintenance is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

-22-

  • (3) Land is not depreciated. Other property, plant and equipment apply cost model and are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each end of reporting year. If expectations for the assets’ residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets’ future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, from the date of the change.
The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Buildings
Main plants 41 to 56 years
Other accessory equipment 5 to 10 years
Machinery and Transportation equipment 2 to 36 years
Other equipment 3 to 41 years
Equipment spare parts depreciated by actual wear
  • (4) An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.

4.11 Leases

The Group assesses whether the contract is (or includes) a lease at the date of the contract. For a contract that includes a lease component and one or more additional lease or non-lease components, the Group will allocate the consideration to the lease component base on the individual price of each lease component and the aggregated individual price of the non-lease component.

  • (1) The Group as lessee

Except for payments for low-value asset and short-term leases which will be recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis, the Group will recognize right-ofuse assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the inception of lease.

Right-of-use asset

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost (including the initial measurement amount of the lease liability, the payments less incentives, initial direct costs and the estimated recover cost), the subsequent measurement is based on the cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, and adjusting the amount of re-measures of lease liabilities.

The right-of-use asset recognized depreciation is using the straight-line basis from the date of the lease until the expiration of the useful life or the expiration of the lease term, the depreciation is provided that the title of the underlying asset will be acquired at the end of the lease period or, if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects the execution of the purchase option.

-23-

Lease liability

The lease liability is initially measured by the present value of the lease payment (including fixed payment, substantive fixed payment, change in lease payment depending on the index or rate, etc.). If the implied interest rate on the lease is easy to determine, the lease payment is discounted using that interest rate. If the interest rate is not easy to determine, the lessee's increase borrowing rate is used.

If the lease period, the evaluation of the purchase choice, the amount of expected to be paid under the residual value guarantee or the change in the index or rate used to determine the lease payment result in a change in the future lease payment, the Group will measure the lease liability and adjust the right to use assets relatively. If the carrying amount has been reduced to zero, the remaining amount will recognize in the profit and loss. Lease liabilities are presented in a single-line project on the Consolidated balance sheet.

Lease payments in lease agreements that do not depend on the index or rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which they occur.

  • (2) The Group as lessor

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of a lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Under finance leases, the lease payments comprise fixed payments, in-substance fixed payments, variable lease payments which depend on an index or a rate, residual value guarantees, the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and payments of penalties for terminating a lease if the lease term reflects such termination, less any lease incentives payable. The net investment in a lease is measured at (a) the present value of the sum of the lease payments receivable by a lessor and any unguaranteed residual value accrued to the lessor plus (b) initial direct costs and is presented as a finance lease receivable. Finance lease income is allocated to the relevant accounting periods so as to reflect a constant, periodic rate of return on the Group’s net investment outstanding in respect of leases.

Lease payments (less any lease incentives payable) from operating leases are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the relevant leases. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining operating leases are added to the carrying amounts of the underlying assets and recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.

4.12 Investment properties

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation (including property under construction for such purposes) and include land held for a currently undetermined future use is regarded as holding for capital appreciation.

Investment properties are initially measured at cost, including transaction costs, and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method.

-24-

Investment properties under construction are stated at cost less accumulated impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. Depreciation of these assets commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

On derecognition of an investment property, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

4.13 Intangible assets

Separately acquired intangible assets with finite useful lives are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Trademark rights are amortized based on economic benefits or contract years. The estimated durability and amortization method are reviewed at the end of the reporting period, and the effect from any change in estimates is postponed.

4.14 Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses at the end of reporting period the recoverable amounts of those assets where there is an indication that they are impaired. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. When the indication of impairment loss recognized in prior years for an asset other than goodwill no longer exists, the impairment loss is reversed to the extent of the loss previously recognized in profit or loss.

4.15 Provisions

Provisions (including short-term employee benefits, and onerous contracts) are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date. The discount rate (or rates) shall be a pre-tax rate (or rates) that reflect(s) current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the carrying amount of a provision increases in each period to reflect the passage of time. This increase is recognized as interest expense. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.

4.16 Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits

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

-25-

Pensions

(1) Defined contribution plans

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

  • (2) Defined benefit plans

  • a. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Group in current period or prior period. The liability recognized in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets, the net defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The discount rate is determined by using the interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) of a currency and term consistent with the currency and term of the defined benefit plans.

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

  • c. Past-service costs are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration

Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognized as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligations and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the amount accrued and the amount actually distributed is accounted for a change in accounting estimate.

Termination benefits

Termination benefits are employee benefits provided in exchange for the termination of an employee’s employment as a result of either the Group’s decision to terminate an employee’s employment before the normal retirement date, or an employee’s decision to accept an offer of benefits in exchange for the termination of employment. The Group recognizes expense when it can no longer withdraw an offer of termination benefits or when it recognizes related restructuring costs, whichever is earlier. Benefits that are expected to be due more than 12 months after balance sheet date are discounted to their present value.

4.17 Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or stock options are recognized in equity as a deduction from the proceeds.

4.18 Income tax

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

-26-

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

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

  • (4) Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. At each balance sheet date, unrecognized and recognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed.

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

  • (6) A deferred tax asset shall be recognized for the carryforward of unused tax credits resulting from acquisitions of equipment or technology, research and development expenditures and equity investments to the extent that it is possible that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilized.

-27-

4.19 Revenue Recognition

The Group recognizes revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with the principles and steps as stated below:

  • (1) Identify the contract with the customer;

  • (2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract;

  • (3) Determine the transaction price;

  • (4) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in contracts; and

  • (5) Recognize revenue upon satisfaction of performance obligations.

The Group does not adjust the transaction price in a contract for the effects of a significant financing component, if the period between when the customer pays for the goods or services and when the entity transfers the goods or services is one year or less.

(1) Sale of goods

Sales revenue from goods mainly comes from the sales of galvanized steel coils and painted steel coils. Sales revenue is recognized when the control of goods is passed to customers. Since customers have obtained the right to set the price and make use of the goods and assumed the responsibility for resale and risks of obsolescence, the Group recognizes revenue and accounts receivable at such time point, presented as the net amount after deducting sales returns, discounts and allowance.

When supplying materials for processing, control of the processed goods is not transferred, in which case it is not recognized as revenue.

  • (2) Revenue from leases, dividends and interests

  • A. The rental revenue shall be recognized as revenue in the duration of the lease based on straight-line method.

  • B. Dividend revenue from investments is recognized when the rights of shareholders to receive payment are established, provided that the economic profits arising from such transaction are highly probable to flow to the Group and the amount of such benefits can be reliably measured.

  • C. Interest revenue is recognized based on outstanding principal and applicable effective interest according to passage of time on an accrual basis.

4.20 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the cost of those assets until substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete.

To the extent that an entity borrows funds specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the entity shall determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization as the actual borrowing costs incurred on that borrowing during the period less any investment income on the temporary investment of those borrowings.

Except for those qualifying capitalization, all other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in profit or loss as incurred.

-28-

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND MAJOR SOURCES OF ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY

In the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, the critical accounting judgments the Group has made and the major sources of estimation and assumption uncertainty are described as follows:

5.1 Critical judgements in applying accounting policies

(1) Revenue recognition

The Group follows IFRS 15 to determine if it controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to the customer, and the Group is acting as a principal or an agent in that transaction. When the Group acts as an agent, revenue is recognized on a net basis.

The Group acts as a principal as that it meets one of the following situations:

  • A. The Group gains control over the goods from the other party before transferring goods to customers.

  • B. The Group controls the right of providing service by the other party in order to control the ability of the party to provide service to customers.

  • C. The Group gain control over goods or service from the other party in order to combine with other goods or services to provide specific goods or services to customers.

The indicators (not limited to) which assist making judgment on whether the Group controls the goods or services before transferring goods or services to customers:

  • A. The Group has primary responsibilities for the goods or services it provides;

  • B. The Group bears inventory risk before transferring the specific goods or services to customer, or after transferring the control to customer (for example, if the customer has the right to return).

  • C. The Group has the discretion to set prices.

5.2 Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

(1) Impairment assessment of tangible and intangible assets

In the course of impairment assessments, the Group determines, based on how assets are utilized and relevant industrial characteristics, the useful lives of assets and the future cash flows of a specific Group of the assets. Changes in economic circumstances or the Group’s strategy might result in material impairment of assets in the future.

(2) Impairment assessment of investments accounted for using the equity method

The Group assesses the impairment of an investment accounted for using the equity method once there is any indication that it might have been impaired and its carrying amount cannot be recoverable. The Group assesses the recoverable amounts of an investment accounted for using the equity method based on the present value of the Group’s share of expected future cash flows of the investee or the present value of expected cash dividends receivable from the investee and expected future cash flows from disposal of the investment, analyzing the reasonableness of related assumptions.

- - 29

(3) Realizability of deferred tax assets

Deferred assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deferred tax asset can be utilized. The Group’s management assesses the realizability of deferred tax assets by making critical accounting judgements and significant estimates of expected future revenue growth rate and gross profit rate, the tax exemption period, available tax credits, and tax planning, etc. Changes in global economic environment, industrial environment, and laws and regulations might result in material adjustments to deferred tax assets.

(4) Evaluation of inventories

As inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value; thus, the Group estimates the net realizable value of inventory for obsolescence and unmarketable items on balance sheet date due to the rapid technology changes and writes down inventories to the net realisable value.

(5) Calculation of accrued pension obligations

When calculating the present value of defined pension obligations, the Group uses judgments and actuarial assumptions to determine related estimates, including discount rates and future salary increase rate. Changes in these assumptions may have a significantly impact on the carrying amount of defined pension obligations.

(6) Estimated impairment of financial assets

The provision for impairment of trade receivables is based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Group uses judgement in making these assumptions and in selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Group’s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period. Where the actual future cash inflows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

(7) Process of fair value measurement and evaluation

When the assets and liabilities at fair value with no active market, the Group determines whether to use outside appraisal and using proper evaluation techniques based on related regulation or its own judgment.

If the Level 1 input value is not available while evaluating, the Group refers to the analysis of the investee’s financial position and operating outcome, recent trading price, quotes on non-active market of same equity instrument, quotes on active market of similar equity instrument and evaluation multiples of comparable companies. If the future input value is different from expectation, the fair value might change. The Group updates input values quarterly according to the market status in order to monitor if the measurement of fair value is appropriate.

  • A. Accounts receivables are created by the Group by selling goods, and the average collection period is 7~26 days. The Group’s accounts receivables all meet the credit standards stipulated based on the counterparties' industrial characteristics, operation scale and profitability.

  • B. The Group provided accounts receivable as collateral for the borrowings. Please refer to Note 8 for the information.

  • C. The Group had sold part of accounts receivables to the banks without recourse. Due to transferring the risks and rewards when the Group sold the accounts receivable, it was delisted from the balance sheet. Please refer to Note 12.4 for the information.

  • D. Please refer to Note 7.3.3 for related party transactions.

  • E. The Group applies the simplified approach to provisions for expected credit losses prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of a lifetime expected credit losses provision for trade receivables. The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated by reference to past account aging records of the debtor, an analysis of the debtor’s current financial position, industrial trend. which receivables are past due. As the Group’s historical credit losses experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision for losses based on past due status of receivables is not further distinguished between the Group’s different customer base.

The Group writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery of the receivable. For trade receivables that have been written off, the Group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables which are due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in profit or loss.

The Group measures the allowance for notes receivable, and accounts receivable to the preparation matrix (including related parties):

  • (5) Through the pension plan under the Labor Standards Law, the Group is exposed to the following risks:

  • A.Investment risk

The pension funds are invested in equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the government's designated authorities or under the mandated management by Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor. However, the rate of return on the Group’ s planned assets shall not be less than the average interest rate on a two-year time deposit published by the local banks.

  • B.Interest rate risk

A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation, however, the return on the debt investments of the plan assets will also increase. Those two will partially offset each other.

  • C.Salary risk

The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

  • (6)The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The principal assumptions adopted on the valuation date were as follows:

(2) Financial Instruments

  1. Financial risk of financial instruments

Financial risk management

The Group’s daily operations are affected by various financial risks, e.g. market risk (including exchange rate, interest rate and price risks), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group is devoted to identify, assess and avoid market uncertainties in order to eliminate the potential adverse effects of market changes on the financial performance.

Before engaging in significant transactions, due approval process by the Board of Directors must be carried out based on related protocols and internal control procedures. While the financial plan is underway, the Group shall comply with relevant financial operation procedures on the overall financial risk management and segregation of duties at all times.

The nature and degree of significant financial risks

  • (1) Market risks

  • A. Foreign exchange rate risk:

    • (A) The Group is exposed to exchange rate risk arising from the sales, purchases and borrowings in currencies other than the Group’s functional currency, as well as from net investment of foreign operations. Functional currency the Group is New Taiwan Dollars, such transactions are denominated mainly in USD and EUR. To avoid a decrease in the value of assets dominated in foreign currency and volatility in future cash flows due to changes in exchange rates, the Group hedges the exchange rate risk with foreign-currency borrowings. Those financial instruments can diminish but not completely eliminate the impacts of changes in exchange rate. As net investments in foreign operations are for strategic purposes, they are not hedged by the Group.

Fair value of such preferred stock investment changes in line with the interest rate changes in the market. If the market interest rate goes up 1% and other variables are held constant, the profit or loss for the year 2020 and 2019 will decrease by $415 thousand and $1,513 thousand, respectively.

  - (B) Sensitivity analysis of those with cash flow interest rate risk: The interest-fluctuate instruments possessed by the Group were floatinginterest assets (liabilities). Therefore, the effective interest rate, as well as the future cash flows, changes along with the market movement. Every one percent reduce (increase) in the market interest will increase (decrease) the net profit by $47,915 thousand and $155,418 thousand for the years 2020 and 2019, respectively.
  • (2) Credit risk

  • Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by counter-parties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. Credit risk of the Group mainly comes from receivables under operating activities and bank deposits and other financial instruments under investing activities. Credit risks related to operation and finance risks are managed separately.

Credit risk related to operations

To maintain the quality of accounts receivable, the Group has established the procedures for credit risk management with regards to its operations.

Risk assessment on individual customer includes factors that could affect the customer's ability to pay, such as the customer's financial status, the Group’s internal credit ratings, historical transactions and current economic conditions.

-71-

Financial credit risk

The credit risks of bank deposits and other Financial instruments are measured and monitored by the Group’s financial departments. The Group does not expect significant credit risk because the counterparties are creditworthy and investment-graded financial institutions, companies and government agencies without any significant default concerns. In addition, the Group does not have any debt instrument investments that are either measured at amortized cost, or at FVTOCI.

  • A. Credit concentration risk

  • As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the top ten clients accounted for 79% and 87% of the Group’s accounts receivable, indicating a credit concentration risk. However, no significant credit concentration risk was shown from the remaining accounts receivables.

  • B. Measurement of expected credit impairment loss

  • (a)Accounts receivables applies the simplified approach. Please refer to Note 6.3 for details.

  • (b)Collaterals and other credit enhancement held to avoid credit risks from financial assets

(3) Fair Value Information:

  1. For information on fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value, please refer to Note 12(3)3. For fair value of investment property measured at cost, please refer to Note 6.10. For fair value of investments in associates with quoted prices in an open market, please refer to Note 6.8.

  2. Definition of the three levels in fair value:

Level 1:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. A market is regarded as active where a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of the Group’s beneficiary certificate with quoted market prices is included in Level 1.

-74-

Level 2

Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3

Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value of the Group’s investment in equity investment without active market and preferred stock investment is included in Level 3.

  1. Financial instruments not measured at fair value Management of the Group thinks that the carrying amount of financial instruments not measured at fair value except those listed in the table below, including cash and cash equivalents, notes receivables, accounts receivables, other financial assets, refundable deposits, short term loans, short-term bills payable, accounts payable, and long-term loans (including current portion), is the reasonable approximation of their fair value.

  2. Fair value hierarchy:

The fair value hierarchy of financial instrument is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Information about the Group’s fair value hierarchy is disclosed in the following table:

  1. Fair value valuation technique for instruments measured at fair value:

  2. (1) The fair value of financial instruments with quoted prices in active markets is the quoted market prices. Market prices published by major trading centers and exchanges for on-the-run government bonds are the basis for the fair value of listed equity instruments and debt instruments with quoted prices in active markets. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis. If one of the conditions fails, the market is not deemed active. In general, indications of an inactive market include a wide bid-ask spread, a significant increase in the bid-ask spread and low level of trading volume. The fair value of financial instruments with active markets held by the Group are stated by their natures and types as follows:

    • a. Open-end funds: Net asset value.
  3. (2) Except for financial assets with an active market, the fair value of other financial assets is obtained either based on the valuation technique or by reference to the quotes from counter-parties. Fair value can be obtained by using a valuation technique that refers to the fair value of financial instruments having substantially the same terms and characteristics, the discounted cash flow method, or other valuation technique e.g. the one that applies market information available on the balance sheet date to a pricing model for calculation.

The fair value of the Group’s holding of unlisted stocks for which no active market exists is estimated by using the market approach, which refers to the valuation of similar entities, quoted prices from a third party, the net worth of an entity and the operating performance. In addition, the significant unobservable inputs mainly comprise liquidity discount, in which the possible changes would not result in a potentially material financial effect. Therefore, the Group does not disclose the quantitative information.

  1. Valuation process for Level 3 fair value measurement: Valuation process regarding fair value Level 3 is conducted by the Group’s finance department, by which the independence of fair value of financial instruments is verified though use of independent data source in order to make the valuation results close to market conditions. Such valuation results are regularly reviewed so as to ensure their reasonableness.

(4) Transfer of financial assets:

  1. Transferred financial assets fully derecognized: The Group was in contract with Chang Hwa Commercial Bank, Ltd. for accounts receivable factoring. According to the contract, the Group does not have to bear the risk of default over the transferred accounts receivables but only the loss from trade disputes. As the Group did not have any continued participation over those transferred accounts receivables, they were derecognized from the accounts.
