IX Adjournment

-5-

1. The Operation of 2018

In 2018 the up-stream steel industry of China is said to reduce 100 to 150 million tons of capacity in five years, but it has been done ahead of schedule. China's policy on reducing capacity, banning new facilities and substandard steel has made it easier for making sure the production under control.

Yieh Phui is of the mid-stream of the steel industry with the major products of metallic coated and prepainted steel sheets for sale worldwide, having been able to control the costs and gain steady profits when confronting the competition from China.

The Outline of the Operation of 2018

Comparing 2018 with 2017, the sale volume of Yieh Phui increases 2.04% and that of revenue is NT$847 million. Yieh Phui (China)’s sales decreased by NT$1.6 billion due to a lower sales than a year ago. The sales volume of Yieh Hsing rises by NT$749 million and the increase in revenue is NT$749 million. Overall, the consolidated revenue is NT$73.856 billion, an increase of 3.79% compared to the previous year of NT$71.159 billion. The consolidated net income after tax is NT$265 million, a reduction of 80.31% from NT$1.345 billion of the previous year, of which NT$308 million is for the mother company, comparing with the previous year of NT$1.367 billion, a reduction of 77.44%.

The Summary for Research and Development

Starting from 2007, Yieh Phui has developed the market for coated steel to be used for household appliances and has been recognized by famous appliance producers such as Whirlpool, Fisher &Paykel, SHARP, and Panasonic.

Confronting with fierce market competition, Yieh Phui has been vigorously developing high end

-8-

quality products for high end market and cooperating with Japanese steel firms to expand in the overseas market. We have seen good results from this collaboration since December 2013 with the volume increasing each month every year, contributing to our earnings and expecting the cumulative total sales to reach 130,000 tons landmark in 2018.

On product differentiation, Yieh Phui has successfully developed anti-microbial metallic coated steel sheets – regular spangle, used for the pipes for air-conditioning, and gained recognition by the public construction projects of Hong Kong, such as MRT and hospitals, and those of Macao. Yieh Phui continues to develop other high endprepainted steel sheets and Al-Zn coated steel sheets for inner panels of ovens. The sales have steadily increased in 2016 and expected to expand in the projects of other appliances. In addition, Yieh Phui has finalized the production of Printed Prepainted Steel Sheets (wood & hairline patterns) for special applications in the industry and will deliver those products in 2017, enhancing the market prospect and the diversity of our offers. In 2017, Yieh Phui plans to develop coated steel with anti-microbial plus and anti-fingerprint treatment to be used in ducting and green construction materials in hospitals and luxurious residences, enhancing market expansion and product diversification.

The trend of globalization has triggered the EU to issue the regulation of RoHS and WEEE, which focus on the recycling of electronic appliances, environment friendly production and their re-use. This policy has won the recognition of the whole world and Yieh Phui has developed products compliant with those regulations and earned big and long-term orders of major appliance producers. Later on in 2007 the EU issued REACH, controlling 16 ingredients in the materials, mixtures and products exporting to EU that may cause cancers, deformation and toxicity to the human reproductive system. Up to the end of 2019, there have been 191 such items and they have been put into Yieh Phui’s quality control and auditing system to protect the environment and the health of consumers. Recently, EU asks again to set a deadline on the use of steel products that contain hexavalent chromium and other new environmental instructions on construction materials like metallic and color coated steel sheets. The company has been aggressively and speedily developing multi-combination and multi-purpose products with suppliers of surface treatment and paints, becoming the first among Taiwan’s competitors to produce outdoor environmentally protective coated steel products. Yieh Phui will cooperate with the sales channels of the supply chain of dealers and roll formers, making sure that our products will reach the world market seamlessly and in a timely fashion to score another great performance in expansion and sales.

Corporate Strategies for Future Development, Impact from competition, legal environment, and overall economy

To maintain stable growth, Yieh Phui is getting the fourth expansion done in Changshu Economic Development Zone, Jiangsu, of Yieh Phui (China). The total production of hot-dip galvanizing in

-9-

Taiwan and China has reached 26 million tons per year, becoming the largest independent coated steel sheet producer in the world. The fourth expansion of Yieh Phui (China) includes a one-million ton pickling and tandem cold mill (PLTCM), 500,000 tons of continuous annealing line (CAL), a 400,000 tons of hot-dip galvanizing line that can produce galvannealed steel sheets and a 220,000 tons of coil coating line. In addition, under the third hot-dip galvanizing line, an aluminum coated equipment is added. The products of the expansion will supply the massive cars and appliances markets in China.

Yieh Phui and Yieh Phui (China) both can produce hot-dip galvanized, hot-dip 5% Al-Zn coated, and hot-dip 55% Al-Zn coated steel coils. In addition Yieh Phui (China) can produce hot-dip Al-Zi coated steel coils and prepainted hot-dip galvanized steel coils using the above materials as a base with all sorts of variety and sizes to satisfy the needs of one-stop shopping for customers worldwide. The competitiveness and profitability is second to none.

In recent years, under the dual-production base model formed by Yieh Phui and Yieh Phui (China), the Company has begun to reinforce dual-axis operations through developing export markets outside of China and the niche markets. In response to the environmental trends, we have also been actively developing green steel products, aiming to exceed the competitors in the industry through the blue ocean strategy

I.The impact of external environment to domestic market

Cheap imports of steel products poured into Taiwan, filling the market with low-price, low-quality materials that pose potential risks to people’s lives and the quality of public infrastructure. As a countermeasure, the government joined the domestic coated steel manufacturers to put forward anti-dumping complaints against China and South Korea in 2016. The 5-year-term anti-dumping duty has been inflicted since August 22, 2016. Nonetheless, attempts of low-price steel imports from other countries to enter the Taiwanese market still sustained, and the Company will continuously assess the effects on the domestic market.

Besides, the US started the implementation of section 232 on March 23, 2018 and has imposed 25% duty on imported steel products, arousing protectionism worldwide, impacting Taiwan’s steel business and rendering supply to exceed demand. The price competition is fierce and down-stream customers tend to be conservative. On the other hand, the trade war between China and the US has made the prospect of China’s economy and the steel market dubious. To avoid any adverse impact, many Taiwanese producers based in China have moved to southeastern Asia or back to Taiwan. The whole scenario needs time to observe.

For the domestic market, the investment has slowed down and the clampdown on farmhouses, building on farmland and tearing down on new violations have contributed to the lower the demand for galvanized steel products, hurting the domestic market. In contrast, the policy on electricity, green energy, solar/wind power all will increase the demand for related industries and help the sale of galvanized steel products.

-10-

II. The impact of external environment to the market of China

China has rapidly expanded its steel production and exports. Many countries around the world have retaliated, forcing China to implement supply side reform. In 2016, China strongly cuts steel capacity; in 2017 China further enforced cuts on dirty steel and allows no production during winter. In 2018, it strengthened production cut coupled with the supervision on the real estate market, global protectionism and the trade between China and the US, weakening the down-stream demand and the economy. It is said that in 2019 China would remain bearish on steel production, but will stimulate the investment on infrastructure. Thus, the impact of the exports from China will reduce.

The state-run steel mills of China proved to be lucrative in 2018 and the profit once exceeded 1,000 RMB per ton. This incurs high costs to the downstream private cold rolling and galvanizing steel mills, rendering it hard to transfer costs to customers and unable to compete with state-owned BF steel mills producing cold rolled steel (including coated steel). Their burdens have become much heavier and grumbled for quite some time.

III. The impact of external environment to the export market

In the global market, due to anti-dumping of numerous countries and defensive measures against China’s dumping, Taiwan has been adversely affected, particularly the accusation on anti-dumping and anti-subsidy by the US. The most severe impact is the section 232 imposition of 25% tariff on steel and aluminum, causing the dramatic increase of the price of steel and reducing customers’ demand for imported products willing to purchase what is necessary. However, the Commerce Department of the US announced on February 19, 2019 that the rate for Yieh Phui will be 2.24%, much lower than the others being assessed, enhancing our competitiveness.

On February 2, 2019, EU implemented a final defensive measure, which will last for three years. To get quota to avoid the 25% tariff, there have already been low price steel flooding the Europe market. The precarious situation of global trade and Brexit has made IMF to lower down the economic growth of Eurozone 1.3%.

The costs of imports have been higher due to the trade war between the US and China continues coupled with the depreciation of the currencies of Southeast Asian countries. In the meantime, major competitors have increased capacity and lowered price to stimulate sales, making it hard for Taiwan steel mills.

Australia is completely exempt from section 232 and their steel mills will export more to the US, reducing their sales to the domestic market, good news for companies exporting to Australia.

In October 2018, World Steel Association (WSA) estimated that the global demand for steel will increase in the short term as well as 2019. However, the global steel market is still full of challenges because the growth for the economies China and other areas will slow down, though the US and emerging countries may increase.

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. Based on our audits and the report of other independent accountants, 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

-12-

31, 2018. 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.

Key audit matters for the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 are stated as follows:

Revenue recognition

Please refer to Note 4.22 to the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policy on revenue recognition; Note 5.2.A for major accounting estimates and assumptions of revenue recognition; and Note 6.34 for the details of revenue recognition.

Description of key audit matter

Due to fierce competition in the industry, the Group may be affected by the growth of its performance and competition in the same industry, which increases the risk of recognition of operating income. Therefore, we determined the revenue recognition for those product lines and customers with significant sales increase in 2018 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 customer group's 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.G for major accounting estimates and assumptions of inventories; and Note 6.7 for inventory valuation.

Description of key audit matter

The Group's inventory amounted to $10,347,451 thousand (net of $10,608,387 thousand of total inventory less $260,936 thousand of allowance for inventory valuation loss) as of 31 December 2018, which accounted for 11.89% 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 judgments 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 information 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.

-13-

Other Matters

We did not audit the financial statements of certain associates accounted for using equity method. Those financial statements were audited by the other independent accountants, whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the consolidated financial statements was based solely on the reports of the other independent accountants. Investments in these associates amounted to $4,779,519 thousand and $5,394,163 thousand, representing 5.49% and 6.18% of total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the share of profit of these associates accounted for using equity mentod amounted to ($424,772) thousand and $82,282 thousand, representing (119.47%) and 4.56% of total consolidated income before income tax for the years then ended, respectively. In addition, other comprehensive income of these associates accounted for using equity method amounted to $27,756 thousand and ($85,997) thousand, representing (132.10%) and 17.04% of total consolidated comprehensive income for the years then ended, respectively.

We have also audited the standalone financial statements of Yieh Phui Enterprise Co., Ltd. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 on which we have issued an unmodified opinion.

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 consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance (including 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

-14-

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. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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

-15-

matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 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.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Ling Wen Huang and Jen Yao Hsieh.

Independent Auditor’s Report

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

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying standalone balance sheets of Yieh Phui Enterprise Co., Ltd. (the “Company") as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the standalone statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the standalone financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other independent accountants, as described in the other matters section of our report, the accompanying standalone financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the standalone financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its standalone financial performance and its standalone cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and 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 standalone Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company 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. Based on our audits and the report of other independent accountants, 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 standalone financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matters for the Company's standalone financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 are stated as follows:

-23-

Revenue recognition

Please refer to Note 4.16 to the standalone financial statements for the accounting policy on revenue recognition; Note 5.2.A for major accounting estimates and assumptions of revenue recognition; and Note 6.29 for the details of revenue recognition.

Description of key audit matter

Due to fierce competition in the industry, the Company may be affected by the growth of its performance and competition in the same industry, which increases the risk of recognition of operating income. Therefore, we determined the revenue recognition for those product lines and customers with significant sales increase in 2018 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 customer Company's two-year operating income status to confirm whether there are abnormal circumstances or centralized transactions and identify possible risks; understanding and testing the interal 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 4.7 to the standalone financial statements for the accounting policy on inventories; Note 5.2.G for major accounting estimates and assumptions of inventories; and Note 6.7 for inventory valuation.

Description of key audit matter

The Company's inventory amounted to $3,783,904 thousand (net of $3,799,790 thousand of total inventory less $15,886 thousand of allowance for inventory valuation loss) as of 31 December 2018, which accounted for 7.47% 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 judgments 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 information 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 did not audit the financial statements of certain associates accounted for using equity method. Those financial statements were audited by the other independent accountants, whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the standalone financial statements was based solely on the reports of the other independent accountants. Investments in these associates

-24-

amounted to $4,644,045 thousand and $5,248,378 thousand, representing 9.17% and 10.30% of total standalone assets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the share of profit of these associates accounted for using equity mentod amounted to ($417,282) thousand and $86,232 thousand, representing (144.43%) and 5.16% of total standalone income before income tax for the years then ended, respectively. In addition, other comprehensive income of these associates accounted for using equity method amounted to $27,596 thousand and ($83,553) thousand, representing (178.53%) and 17.11% of total standalone comprehensive income for the years then ended, respectively.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the standalone 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 standalone financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the standalone financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company’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 Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone 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 standalone 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 standalone 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

-25-

procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

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

  2. Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in Our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the standalone 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 Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

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

  4. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the standalone financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the company 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 standalone financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 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.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Ling Wen Huang and Jen Yao Hsieh.
