INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Zero One Technology Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Zero One Technology Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and 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, and 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, 2020 are stated as follows:

Valuation of allowance for uncollectible accounts

Key Audit Matters

As indicated in Note 5 and Note 10, the management of the Group assesses the collectability of accounts receivable and valuation of allowance for uncollectible accounts, based on the regulations of IFRS 9, and recognizes allowance for uncollectible accounts by lifetime expected credit losses. As the estimation of allowance for uncollectible accounts is subject to judgment of the management, we consider the valuation of allowance for uncollectible accounts a key audit matter.

The following audit procedures

Our audit procedure includes evaluating the policy of recognizing loss allowance for expected credit losses, understanding and testing internal controls of allowance for uncollectible accounts by the management that are in line with periodic reviews, design and implement of relevant controls. We also obtain an aging

  • 4 -

analysis report of accounts receivable for calculation the allowance for uncollectible accounts on the balance sheet date, and perform the procedure of sampling and auditing to evaluate the correctness of the aging analysis report, and examine the valuation of allowance for uncollectible accounts and related reasons so as to evaluate the appropriate nature of the expected credit losses.

Allowance for inventory valuation loss

Key Audit Matters

The valuation of the inventory of the Group includes the estimate of net realizable value and the allowance for inventory valuation loss regarding outdated and obsolete inventory. Net realizable valuation, based on the historical data of market situation and similar products, of the inventory is the carrying amounts calculated by the estimate sales price deducts the estimate of input costs, and cost of goods sold, during the ordinary course of business. The material influence of market condition will affect the amount of net realizable valuation. Besides, the ratio of the allowance for inventory valuation loss is valued by inventory aging and the allowance for the actual loss. We consider the estimate of net realizable valuation, and the ratio of the allowance for inventory impairment loss of the outdated and obsolete inventories based on management's judgment, a key audit matter.

The following audit procedures

Our procedure includes understanding the accounting policies, valuation methods, and citation information originality for the inventory of the Group, obtaining information of the year-end allowance for inventory valuation loss and inventory aging analysis reports, sampling to ensure the reasonableness of the inventory as valued by net realizable value method and the inventory aging, and the carrying amount of the year-end allowance for inventory valuation loss fitting the Group’s accounting policy for allowance.

Other Matter

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Zero One Technology Co., Ltd. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 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 members of 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.

  • 5 -

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

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of 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.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  • (1)Statement of compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs.

  • (2)Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value s, and present value of defined benefits plans deducts net defined benefit liabilitie s measured at fair value.

The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its enti rety, are described as follows:

  • A.;Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, which can be acquired during measurement date;

  • B. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included wi thin Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices);

  • C. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

  • (3)Classification of current and non -current assets and liabilities

Current assets include:

  • A.;Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • B. ;Assets expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; and

  • C. ;Cash and cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from bein g exchanged or used to set tle a liab i lity f o r at lea st t welve m onths after th e reporting perio d .

  • 15 -

Current liabilities include:

  • A.;Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;

  • B. Liabilities due to be settled within twelve months after the report ing period, even if an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long -term basis is completed after the reporting period and before the parent company only financial statements are authorized for issue; and

  • C. Liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, unless issuing equities to defer settlement wouldn’t affect classification, depending on liabilities conditions.

Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non -current.

  • (4)Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company (i.e., its subsi diaries, including structured entities). When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

When the changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries do not result in the Group’s losing control over the subsidiaries, those changes are accounted for equity transactions. The carrying amount of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in the relative interests in the subsidiaries. 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 and attributed to shareholders of the Group.

Please see Note 12, Tables 3&5 for detailed information on subsidiaries (including percentages of ownership and main businesses).

  • (5)Foreign currencies

In preparing the financial statements of each in dividual group 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 den ominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period.

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 non -monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from 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 at historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

When preparing the consolidated financial report, the assets and liabilities of foreign operating organizations (including subsidiaries in countr ies where they operate or whose currencies are different from those of the Group) are converted to NT dollars a t the exchange rate on each balance sheet date. The income and expense items are converted at the average exchange rate of the current period, a nd the resulting conversion difference is listed in other comprehensive profit and losses (and respectively att ributable to the Group and non-controlling interests of the company).

  • 16 -

(6)Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials, materials, work in p rocess, finished goods, and commodities are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. Net realizable value is the estimated selling pri ce of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at standard cost and adjusted to approximate weighted -average cost on the reporting period.

(7)Investment in associates

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture.

The Group uses the equity method to account for its investments in associates.

Under the equity method, investments in an associate are initially recognized in the parent company only balance sheet at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate and the distribution received. The Group also recognizes the changes in the equity of associates attributable to the Group.

Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of an associate reco gnized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of acquisition, after reassessment, is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

When the associate issues new shares, and the Group subscribes at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting car rying amount of the investment differs from the amount of the Group’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the associate. The Group records such a difference as an adjustment to investments with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capita l surplus. If the Group’s ownership interest is reduced due to the additional subscription to the shares of associate by other investors, the proportionate amount of the gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate shall be reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required if the associate had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus recognized from investments accounted for by the equity method is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings .

When the Group’s share of losses of an associate equals or exceeds its interest in that associate (which includes any carrying amount of the investment accounted for by the equity method and long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate), the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses and liabilities ar e recognized only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal obligations, or constructive obligations, or made payments on behalf of that associate.

The entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date on which its investment ceases to be an associate. Any retained investment is measured at fair value at that date and the fair value is regarded as its fair value on initial recognition as a financial asset. The difference between the previous carrying amount of the associate attributable to the retained interest and its fair value is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal of the as sociate. The Group accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate on the

same basis as would be required if that associate had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. If the investment of associates becomes the investment of joint ventures, or vice versa, the Group will continue to evaluate investment accounted for by the equity method, other than remeasur ing retained equities.

Profits and losses, resulting from upstream, downstream, and sidestream transactions between the Group and associates, are recognized on parent company only financial statements in the scope of the Group’s equities that are not relevant to its associates.

  • (8)Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less recognized accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.

Depreciation is recognized using the straight -line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The estimated useful lives, residual val ues and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

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.

  • (9)Intangible assets

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Amortization is recognized on a straight -line basis. The estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

On de-recognition of an intangible asset, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

  • (10)Impairment of property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, and intangible assets (excluding goodwill)

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment, right of use assets and intangible assets (excluding goodwill), to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of t he impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash -generating units or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet availab le for use are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash -generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss.

The inventory, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets recognized in the customer contract are first recognized as impairment in accordance with the inventory policies and the above regulations, and the book value of the relevant assets according to the contract cost exceeds the expected consideration for the provision of related goods or services. The amount after deducting the directly related costs is recognized as an impairment loss, and the book value of the contract cost -related assets is continuously included in the cash-generating unit in order to perform the impairment assessment of the cash-generating unit.

  • 18 -

When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverab le amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss, without amortization or depreciation, been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

  • (11)Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized on parent company only balance sheets when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in pr ofit or loss.

  • A. Financial assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.

  • a. Measurement category

The Group’s financial assets are classified into the following categor ies: financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at amortized cost, and investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI.

  • (a)Financial assets at FVTPL

For certain financial assets which include debt instrument that do not meet the criteria of amortized cost or FVTOCI, it is mandatorily required to measure them 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 cri teria 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. The dividends, interest earned and net gain or loss recognized in profit or lo ss on the financial asset. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 26.

  • (b)Financial assets at amortized cost

Financial assets that meet the following two 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 asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and in terest on the principal amount outstanding.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost, including cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable and other financial assets are measured 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.

Interest income is calculated by applying the eff ective interest rate to multiply the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.

Cash equivalents, held to meet short-term cash commitments, include time deposits with original maturities within 3 months from the date of acquisition, which are highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash, as wel l

  • 19 -

as deposits in the bank and repurchase bonds, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

  • (c)Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI

On initial recognition, the Group may make an irrevocable designate investments in equity instruments that is not held for trading 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.

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 o n 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 dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.

  • b. Impairment of financial assets

The Group recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost (including notes and trade receivable).

The Group always recognizes the loss allowance by lifetime Expected Credit Loss (i.e. ECL) for notes and accounts receivable. For all other financial instruments, 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 at an amount equal to 12 -month ECL.

Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of a default occurring as the weights. Lifetime ECL represents the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 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 order for the Group to fulfill the purpose of internal credit and risk management control, under the premise that does not take into account of the collaterals owned by the Group, the following will be deemed as a default of the financial assets:

  • A. Either internal or external information indicates that it is impossible for the debtors to clear the debts;

B. Any delay in payment – unless there is reasonable and supporting information that indicates the basis for delaying the payment is more appropriate.

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.

  • c. De-recognition of financial assets

The Group derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.

On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of an investment in an equity instrument at FVTOCI, the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred directly to retained earnings, without recycling through profit or loss.

  • 20 -

  • B. Financial liabilities

  • a. Subsequent measurement

    • All financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
  • b. De-recognition of financial liabilities

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non -cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.

  • C. Convertible bonds

The component parts of compound instruments (convertible bonds) issued by the Group are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a fin ancial liability and an equity instrument.

On initial recognition, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for similar non -convertible instruments. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortized cost basis using the effective interest metho d until extinguished upon conversion or the instrument’s maturity date. Any non -equity embedded derivative liability is measured at fair value.

The conversion option classified as equity is determined by de ducting the amount of the liability component from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. This is recognized and included in equity, net of income tax effects, and is not subsequently remeasured. In addition, the conversion option classified as equity will remain in the liability and equity until the conversion option is exercised, in which case, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to capital surplus - share premium. When the conversion option remains unexercised at maturity, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to capital surplus - share premium.

Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the convertible bonds are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds.

  • (12)Revenue recognition

The Group identifies the contract with the customers, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizes revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.

Revenue from sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods comes from sales of computer software, hardware, accessories, equipment, and components, etc. Customers have the right of quotation and user, and the responsibility of resale as goods after shipment and taking risks of losses of obsolete goods. The Group recognizes revenues and trade receivable as goods after shipment.

  • (13)Leases

At the inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.

  • A. 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.

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.

  • 21 -

  • B. The Group as lessee

Except for payments for low-value asset leases and short-term leases which are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis, the Group recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of the lease.

Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities adjusted for lease payments made at or before the commencement date, and less any lease incentives received, any initial d irect costs incurred and an estimate of costs needed to restore the underlying assets. Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are presented on a separate line in the parent company only balance sheets.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right -of-use assets or the end of the lease terms.

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, which comprise fixed payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in a lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate s.

Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized o ver the lease terms. When there is a change in a lease term or a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to t he right-of-use-assets. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero, any remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the parent company only balance sheets.

  • (14)Costs of loans

All Costs of loans incurred shall be recognized as profits and losses at the current period.

  • (15)Employee benefit

  • A. Short-term employee benefits.

Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for service renderded by employees.

  • B. Retirement benefits

For defined contribution retirement benefit plans , payments to the benefit plan are recognized as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contribution. For defined benefit retirement benefit plans, the cost of providing benefit is recognized based on actuarial calculations. Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) under the defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method. Service cost (including current service cost as well as previous service cost, and net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset) are recognized as employee benefits expense in the period they occur, or when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs/when the settlement occurs. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.

Net defined benefit liability (asset) represents the actual deficit (su rplus) in the Group’s defined benefit plan. Net defined benefit asset shall not exceed the return

  • 22 -

contribution or the present value possibly calculated after reducing future contribution.

  • (16)Share-based payment arrangements

The fair value and expected estimate amounts of the stock options and restricted stock sward determined at the grant date of the stock options is expensed on a straight -line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of stock options that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in capital surplus - stock options. The fair value determined at the grant date of the stock options is recognized as an expense in full at the grant date when the stock options gr anted vest immediately.

When restricted shares for employees of the Group are issued, other equity - unearned employee benefits is recognized on the grant date, with a corresponding increase in capital surplus - restricted shares for employees. If restric ted shares for employees are granted for consideration and should be returned, they are recognized as payables.

At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of stock options expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates is recognized in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the capital surplus - stock options and capital surplus – restricted stock award.

(17)Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

  • A. Current tax

The Group recognizes current earnings (losses) in accordance with the Income Tax Act of the Republic of China, and calculate the amount for tax payable (recoverable).

Income tax on unappropriated earnings is expensed in the year the shareholders approved the appropriation of earnings which is the year subsequent to the year the earnings are generated according to Taiwan’s Income Tax Act.

Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.

  • B. Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the parent company only financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences, net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits for research and development expenses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the b enefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that suffic ient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be recovered. The deferred tax assets which originally not recognized is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the extent that it is prob able that

  • 23 -

sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year in which the liability is settl ed or the asset is realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from t he manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

  • C. Current and deferred tax for the year

  • Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

5. ;CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION AND UNCERTAINTY

In the application of the aforementioned Company’s accounting policies, the Group is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not re adily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that year, or in the year of the revision and future years if the revision affects both current and future years.

  • (1)Estimated impairment of financial a ssets

The provision for impairment of notes and trade receivables and investments in debt instruments is based on the Group’s assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Group uses judgment in making these assumptions and in selecting th e 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. For details of the key assumptions and inputs used, see Notes 10. Where the actual future cash inflows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

  • (2)Write-down of inventory

The net realizable value of inventories is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to close the sale. The estimation of net realizable value is based on current market conditions and historical experience with product sales of a similar nature. Changes in market conditions may have a material impact on the estimation of the net realizable value.

These long-term investments in equity instruments are held for receiving profits, under medium to long-term business development strategic purp oses. Accordingly, the Group’s management elected to designate these investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI as they believe that recognizing short-term fluctuations in these investments’ fair value in profit or loss would not be consistent with the Group’s strategy of holding these investments for long-term purposes.

The average credit period of sales of goods of t he Group was 60-90 days, and no interest was charged on trade receivable.

In order to minimize credit risk, the Group’s management has delegated a t eam responsible for determining credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue receivables. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade receivab le at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate allowance is made for possible irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the Group’s management believes the Group’s credit risk was significantly reduced.

  • 26 -

The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses, which permits the use of lifetime expected loss provision for al l trade receivable. The expected credit losses of trade receivable on durable are e stimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default exp erience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor’s past experience of receivable and current financial p osition, expectation of GDP and prospect of the industry, deciding the rate of the expected credit losses by the different levels of credit limits of customers and actual conditions, based on the degree of doubtful accounts triggered by customers of differ ent industries.

The Group writes off an account receivable when there is informati on indicating that the respective debtor is experiencing severe fi nancial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery of the receivable. For accounts receivabl e 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.

19. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

(1)Defined contribution plans

The plan under the R.O.C. Labor Pension Act (the “Act”) is deemed a defined contribution plan. Pursuant to the Act, the Group has made monthly contributions equal to 6% of each employee’s monthly salary to employees’ pension accounts.

(2)Defined benefit plans

ZOTC has defined benefit plans under the R.O.C. Labor Standards Law that provide benefits based on an employee’s length of service and average monthly salary for the six-month period prior to retirement. The Company contributes an amount equal to 2% of salaries paid each month to their respective pension funds (the Funds), which are administered by the Labor Pension Fund Supervisory Committee (the Committee) and deposited in the Committee’s name in the Bank of Taiwan. Before the end of each year, the Company assesses the balance in the Funds. If the amount of the balance in the Funds is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Company is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The Funds are operated and managed by Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor; as such, the Company does not have any right to intervene in the investments of the Funds.

Amounts recognized in respect of these defined benefit plans in consolidated balance sheets were as follows:

Through the defined benefit plans under the R.O.C. Labor Standards Law, the Company is exposed to the following risks:

  • a. Investment risk: The pension funds are invested in domestic and foreign 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. However, under the R.O.C. Labor Standards Law, the rate of return on assets shall not be less than the average interest rate on a two-year time deposit published by the local banks and the government is responsible for any shortfall in the event that the rate of return is less than the required rate of return.

  • b. Interest risk: A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; ho wever, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the debt investments of the plan assets.

  • 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.

The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The principal assumptions at the measurement date were as follows:

date were as follows:
Discount rate
Future salary increase rate

2.750%

;If main actuarial assumptions vary within a reasonable extent, as for other assumption remaining unchanged, the present value of defined benefit obligation increases/decreases shall be as follows:

(3)Retained earnings and dividend policy

ZOTC’s Articles of Incorporation provide that, when allocating the net profits for each fiscal year, ZOTC shall first pay taxes and offset it s losses in previous years and then set aside the legal capital reserve at 10% of the profits left over, and then set aside or reverse the legal capital reserve.

The appropriation for legal capital reserve shall be made until the reserve equals ZOTC’s paid-in capital. The reserve may be used to offset a deficit, or be distributed as dividends in cash for the portion in excess of 25% of the paid-in capital if ZOTC incurs no loss.

Under Rule No. 1010012865 and Rule No. 1010047490 issued by the FSC and the directive titled “Questions and Answers for Special Reserves Appropriated Following Adoption of IFRSs”, ZOTC shall appropriate or reverse to a special reserve.

  • (4)Financial risk management objective s and policies

The Group’s principal financial risk management objective is to manage the market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk based on related protocols and internal control procedures. The Group’s financial department measures the aforementioned risks based on the Group’s risk appetite, and reports to the board of directors for carrying out relevant policies at any time.

  • A. ;Market risk

The Group’s activities exposed it primarily to the financial r isks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

  • 42 -

(A) Foreign currency risk

The Group’s purchases and investments are denominated in foreign currencies. Consequently, the Group is exposed to foreign currency risks. To protect against reductions in value of foreign currency denominated assets and the volatility of future cash flows caused by changes in foreign exchange rates, the Group utilizes derivative financial instruments, such as forward exchange contracts and options, for avoiding foreign currency ris ks.

The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign curr ency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities of non -functional currency calculated (including those eliminated on consolidation) at the end of the reporting period are set out in Note 30.

Sensitivity analysis

The Group’s exchange rate exposure was in the exchange rate of U.S. dollars.

The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the end of the reporting period for a 5% change in foreign currency rates. If inter est rates had been 5 % higher/lower, the Group’s net profit in 20 20 and 2019 would increase/decrease by $40,991 thousand and $20,754 thousand, respectively.

(B) Interest rate risk

The Group exposed to the risk of interest rate at fair value, since holding the fixed-rate loan, accessing the interest rate of the bank loan regularly, observing influences on profits or losses from fluctuation range of the interest rate, keeping contact with the bank based on th e actual requirement, and acquiring the best interest rate of the loan.

The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to risks of interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows:

follows:
Interest rate risks at fair value

Financial liabilities
Interest rate risks at cash flows

December 31,
2019
$ 874,635
158,356
231,807

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analyses below were determined ba sed on the Group’s exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period.

If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s pre-tax profit in 2020 and 2019 would increase/ decrease by $3,696 thousand and $1,159 thousand, respectively. Exposure is triggered by risks of cash flows of the Group’s variable interest rates of deposits.

(C) Other price risk

The Group is exposed to equity price risks arising from equ ity investments of public offering securities and fund beneficiary certificates. Equity investments should be approved by the management, for controlling risks by holding different investment portfolios.

Sensitivity analysis

The following sensitivity analysis is based on risk exposure of equity prices at the end of the reporting period.

  • 43 -

Assuming a hypothetical increase/decrease of 5% in prices of the equity investments, increased/decreased by $19,813 thousand and $4,785 thousand, because of the change in fair value of financial assets at FVTPL, respectively, at the end of the reporting period in 20 20 and 2019. The other comprehensive income would have increased/decreased by $16,976 thousand and $12,588 thousand respectively, because of the change in fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI at the end of the reporting period in 20 20 and 2019.

B. ;Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. As at the end of the reporting period, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the r espective recognized financial assets as stated in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Group adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties. Credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the financial department regularly.

To decrease a credit risk, the key management personnel of the Group is responsible for decision of rating criteria, credit limits approval, and other censor procedure, etc., in order to collect delinquent trade receivable. Ot herwise, the group reviews each trade receivable to assure allowance of impairment losses of uncollectable bad debts, hence the key management personnel considers credit concentration risk of trade receivable is insignificant.

The credit concentration risk of the current fund is insignifi cant, since the Group only transacts with financial institutions with good rating.

Trade receivable consisted of a large number of customers. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of certain cu stomer’s trade receivable. If necessary, purchasing insurance for credit enhancing procedures is a must.

The credit risk of the Group concentrates on top 5 customers of the Group. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group’s five largest customers accounted for 33% of trade receivable, respectively.

C. ;Liquidity risk

The Group manages and maintains sufficient cash and cash equivalents so as to cope with its operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The Group’s management supervises financing line of the banking facilitie s and ensures compliance with the terms of loan agreements.

Liquidity & interest rate risk table

The table below summarizes the due analysis of the maturity profile of the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities, enacted by contractual undisco unted payments of cash flow of financial liabilities, according to remaining contracts on the earliest date on which the Group may be required to pay, including interest and principal of cash flows.
