Independent Auditors’ Review Report

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

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Yieh Phui Enterprise Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (together “the consolidated financial statements”). Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Accounting Standards 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed and became effective by Financial Supervisory Commission (FCS) of the Republic of China. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these consolidated financial statements based on our reviews.

Scope of Review

Except as disclosed in basis for qualified conclusion paragraph, we conducted our reviews in accordance with Statement of Auditing Standards No. 65, “Review of Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity” of the Republic of China. A review of consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Basis for Qualified Conclusion

As disclosed in Note 4.3 to the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of non-significant subsidiaries were consolidated based on their unreviewed financial statements as of and for the same periods. These subsidiaries’ total assets amounted to $11,082,242 thousand and $10,023,204 thousand, representing 12.12% and 12.29% of the consolidated assets, and their total liabilities amounted to $5,413,574 thousand and $4,195,960 thousand, representing 8.86% and 7.54% of the consolidated liabilities as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. And their total comprehensive income (loss) amounted to $168,579 thousand, ($82,504) thousand, $156,594 thousand, and ($429,841) thousand, representing 11.67%, 11.88%, 6.37%, and 32.68% of the consolidated comprehensive income (loss) for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. In addition, as described in Note 6.11 to the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of investments accounted for using equity method were not reviewed by independent accountants. The carrying values of these investments amounted to $15,014,583 thousand and $13,712,260 thousand, representing 16.42% and 16.81% of the consolidated assets as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and share of profit (loss) of these associates accounted for using equity method amounted to $370,155 thousand, ($437,718) thousand, $412,046 thousand, and ($887,916) thousand, representing 23.94%, 64.34%, 13.96%, and 78.89% of total consolidated income before income tax for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. In addition, share of other comprehensive income of these associates accounted for using equity method amounted to $350,418 thousand, ($103,914) thousand, $333,395 thousand, and ($94,267) thousand, representing 130.51%, 92.84%, 197.76%, and 28.59% of total consolidated comprehensive income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These amounts were recognized solely based on these investees’ unreviewed financial statements for the same periods. The information related to above subsidiaries, and investees accounted for under the equity method disclosed in Note 13 was also not reviewed by independent accountants.

Qualified Conclusion

Based on our reviews, except for the effects of any adjustments as might have been determined to be necessary had the financial statements and related information of the Company’s non-significant subsidiaries and investees accounted for using equity method described in basis for qualified conclusion paragraph, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, its consolidated financial performance for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and its consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed and became effective by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) of the Republic of China.

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

  • Note 2: An entity shall apply those amendments retrospectively, but only to items of 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 the beginning of the earliest period presented, January 1, 2021, in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the amendments.

Except for the following item, the Group believes that the application of the above New IFRSs will not have a significant effect on the Group’s financial position and financial performance.

- - 9

  • A. Amendments to IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use”

  • These amendments set out that proceeds from selling items produced while bringing an item of property, plant and equipment to the location and condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management shall not be recognized as a deduction of the asset. Instead, the proceeds and the costs of those items, measured in accordance with IAS 2, shall be recognized in profit or loss in accordance with applicable IFRS Standards. In addition, the amendment also clarified that the normal operating cost of a test asset refers to the expenditure for assessing whether the technology and physical properties of the asset are sufficient to be used to produce or provide goods or services, lease to others, or for management purposes.

  • The Group shall apply these amendments retrospectively, but only to items of 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 the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in which the Group first applies the amendments. The cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments shall be recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other component of equity, as appropriate) at the beginning of that earliest period presented with comparative information restated.

  • B. Amendments to IAS 37 “Onerous Contracts - Cost of Fulfilling a Contract” The amendments set out that, when determining whether a contract is onerous, the cost of fulfilling a contract comprises (a) the incremental costs of fulfilling that contract (for example, direct labor and materials); and (b) an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts (for example, an allocation of the depreciation charge for an item of property, plant and equipment used in fulfilling that contract among others).

  • C. Amendments to IFRS 3 “Reference to the Conceptual Framework”

  • The amendments update a reference to the Framework in IFRS 3 and require the acquirer shall apply IFRIC 21 for a levy that would be within the scope of IFRIC 21 to determine whether the obligating event that gives rise to a liability to pay the levy has occurred by the acquisition date.

  • D. Annual Improvement to IFRSs 2018-2020

  • The annual improvements amend several Standards. Among which, the amendment to IFRS 9 clarifies that, in determining whether an exchange or modification of the terms of a financial liability is substantially different from the original one, only fees paid or received between the Group (the borrower) and the lender, including fees paid or received by either the Group or the lender on the other’s behalf, shall be included in the ‘10 percent’ test of discounting present value of the cash flows under the new terms.

As the date the accompanying consolidated financial statements are authorized for issue, the related impact will be disclosed when the Group completes the evaluation.

- - 10

(3) The IFRSs issued by IASB but not yet endorsed and issued into effect by FSC Effective Date New IFRSs Announced by IASB Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution To be determined by of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint IASB Venture” IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” January 1, 2023 Amendments to IFRS 17 January 1, 2023 Amendments to IAS 1 “Classification of Liabilities as January 1, 2023 Current or Noncurrent” Amendments to IAS 1 “Disclosure of Accounting Policies” January 1, 2023 Amendments to IAS 8 “Definition of Accounting January 1, 2023 Estimates” Amendment to IAS 12 “Deferred Tax Related to Assets and January 1, 2023 Liabilities Arising from a Single Transaction”

As of the date the accompany consolidated financial statements are authorized for issue, the Group is still evaluating the impact on its financial position and financial performance as a result of the initial adoption of the aforementioned standards or interpretations. The related impact will be disclosed when the Group completes the evaluation.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Except for the following, the accounting policies applied in these consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. 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 and IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting,” endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC. The consolidated financial statements should be read with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

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 measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

  • C. Liabilities on cash-settled share-based payment arrangements measured at fair value.

  • D. 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 consolidated 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.

- - 11

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

4.4 Retirement benefits

The pension cost for an interim period is calculated on a year-to-date basis by using the actuarially determined pension cost rate at the end of the prior financial year, adjusted for significant market fluctuations since that time and for significant plan amendments, settlements, or other significant one-off events.

4.5 Income taxes

Income tax expense represents the sum of current tax and deferred tax. Interim period income taxes are assessed on an annual basis and calculated by applying to an interim period’s pre-tax income the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings. The effect of a change in tax rate resulting from a change in tax law is recognized consistently with the accounting for the transaction itself which gives rise to the tax consequence, and this is recognized in profit or loss, other comprehensive income or directly in equity in full in the period in which the change in tax rate occurs.

6.3 Notes receivable, net

  1. As of June 30, 2021, December 31, 2020, and June 30, 2020, the Group pledged part of its notes receivable as collateral for its borrowings. Please refer to Note 8.

  2. Please refer to Note 7.3.5 for accounts receivable with related parties.

  3. Please refer to Note 6.4 for the relevant disclosure of loss allowance for notes receivable.

  4. The Group has transferred the endorsement of the bank acceptance bills to the suppliers to pay the accounts payable and the endorsement was transferred to the bank for discounting. As the risks and rewards of the notes have been transferred, the Group has derecognized the bank acceptance bills and the corresponding accounts payable. The suppliers and the bank still have the right to request the Group to settle the payment if the outstanding bank acceptance notes are not fulfilled at the end of the period. Therefore, the Group continues to participate in the notes. The Group’s maximum loss of the continued involvement in the derecognized bank acceptance bills is the amount of bank acceptance bills that have been transferred but not yet matured. As of June 30, 2021, December 31, 2020, and June 30, 2020, the balances were RMB 435,380 thousand, RMB 337,290 thousand, and RMB 351,357 thousand, respectively. These notes will expire within 1~12 months after the balance sheet date. In consideration of the credit risk of the bank acceptance bills, the Group’s assessment of the fair value of its continuing involvement is not significant. The Group did not recognise any gains and losses on the transfer of the bank’s acceptance for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

  • A. The Group’s accounts receivables of sales of goods. The average credit period varies: 30~60 days for Carbon Steel Department, and interest-bearing deferred payment is allowed upon mutual agreement; 7~26 days for the sale of steel products; agreed days for the Engineering Department based on the contractual terms; and 60~90 days for other departments based on encounter parties’ industry characteristics, operation scale and profit status.

  • B. For the information about the Group’s accounts receivable pledged as collateral, please refer to Note 8 for details.

  • C. The Group factored part of its accounts receivables to banks without recourse. The Group had already transferred substantially all risks and rewards upon factoring the accounts receivables, which were thereby derecognized from the balance sheet. Please refer to Note 12(5) for related information.

  • D. 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 measured the allowance for notes receivable and accounts receivable according to the preparation matrix (including related parties):

C. Significant rent operating and clause

The Group rented land and buildings for operation. The lease terms range from 1 to 30 years. Part of the lease may be extended with its duration and is calculated based on the area of the land leased and the rate based on the announced land value of the current year. In accordance with the contract, without the lessor’s consent, the Group is not allowed to sublet the leased object to the third party. There was no sign of impairment of right-of-use assets, hence the Group didn’t assess the impairment as of June 30, 2021, December 31, 2020, and June 30, 2020.

An antidumping investigation into the corrosion-resistant steel sold from Taiwan, conducted by the Department of Commerce of the U.S. in June 2015, had completed in July 2016, with an official announcement that all corrosion resistant products manufactured in or sold from Taiwan must temporarily bear a dumping margin duty. The custom was also instructed to impose a temporary dumping margin on all entries of merchandise sold by the Company to the U.S. that had been covered by the investigation. The antidumping duty is imposed by the U.S. using the retrospective system. The difference between the tax rate of the provisional tax rate paid and the final survey result is presented as “refundable deposit”.

  • (Note) Since the Group offered to settle compensation paid to employees in cash or shares, the Group assumed the entire amount of the compensation would be settled in shares and the resulting potential shares were included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as the effect is dilutive. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the number of shares to be distributed to employees is resolved in the following year.

If NTD appreciates against the above-mentioned currencies, held all other variables constant, the impact generated as of June 30, 2021, December 31, 2020, and June 30, 2020 would stay the same with the reverse result.

  • c. Due to the exchange rate volatility, total exchange gains and losses (including realized and unrealized) from the Group’s monetary items amounted to $49,775 thousand, ($47,236) thousand, $23,511 thousand and ($38,423) thousand for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

  • (B) Price risk

  • Since the Group’s investment in securities is classified as financial assets at FVTPL or financial assets at FVTOCI on the consolidated balance sheet, the Group does not expose to price risks of securities.

  • The Group mainly invests in domestic listed and unlisted stocks and beneficiary certificates. The price of such securities can be affected by changes in future value of those investment targets.

If the security price goes up or down by 1%, the post-tax profit or loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 will increase or decrease by $3,332 thousand and $7,210 thousand due to the increase or decrease of the fair value of financial assets measured at FVTPL. The post-tax other comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 will increase or decrease by $6,758 thousand and $7,340 thousand due to the increase or decrease of the fair value of financial assets measured at FVTOCI.

  • a. Sensitivity analysis of those with fair value interest rate risk: The Group classifies its investment in preferred stocks with fixed income as financial assets measured at FVTPL. 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 will decrease by $993 thousand and $5,053 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, 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 increase in the market interest will decrease (increase) the net profit by ($240,578) thousand and ($226,415) thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

B. 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. 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 June 30, 2021, December 31, 2020, and June 30, 2020 the top ten clients accounted for 50.54%, 48.61%, and 48.80% 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 and contract assets apply the simplified approach. Please refer to Note 6.4. and Note 6.31 for details.

  • b. Indications for determining whether the credit risk is increased significantly: None (the Group does not have any debt instrument investments that are either measured at amortized cost, or at FVTOCI).

  • c. Collaterals and other credit enhancement held to avoid credit risks from financial assets:

    • The following table shows the maximum exposure to credit risk regarding financial assets recognized in the consolidated balance sheets, pledged collateral, master netting arrangements and other credit enhancement held by the Group:

(4) 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(4)3. For fair value of investment property measured at cost, please refer to Note 6.14. For fair value of investments in associates with quoted prices in an open market, please refer to Note 6.11 for details.

  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 investment in listed stocks, beneficiary certificates, on-the-run Taiwan central government bonds and derivative instruments with quoted market prices is included in Level 1.

Level 2

Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The fair value of the Group’s investment in off-the-run government bonds, corporate bonds, bank debentures, convertible bonds and most derivative instruments is included in Level 2.

Level 3

Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value of the Group’s investment in certain derivative instruments, equity investment without active market and investment properties 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, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, other financial assets, refundable deposits, short term loans, short-term bills payable, accounts payable, lease liabilities (including current and noncurrent), long-term loans (including current portion), and deposits received, is the reasonable approximation of their fair value.

  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. Listed stocks: closing prices.

  • b. Open-end funds: net worth.

  • (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

- - 74

changes would not result in a potentially material financial effect. Therefore, the Group does not disclose the quantitative information.

  • (3) When evaluating financial instruments that are non-standard and with lower complexity, e.g. debt instruments with no active markets, interest rate swaps, foreign exchange swaps and options, the Group adopts valuation techniques that are commonly used by market participants. The parameters used in the valuation models for those financial instruments are normally observable data in the market.

  • (4) Valuation of derivative financial instruments adopts valuation models that are commonly used by market participants, e.g. discounted cash flows method and option pricing model.
