Independent Auditors' Report

To the Board of Directors of Tatung Co.:

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Tatung Co.("the Company"), which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 (restated), the statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (restated), and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors (please refer to Other Matter paragraph), the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and 2022 (restated), and its financial performance and its 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 Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter- Contingent Liabilities

As stated in Note 9(e)(iii) 7), in December 2018, Chunghwa Picture Tubes Technology (Group) Co., Ltd. (" CPTTG" ) filed a civil lawsuit against Chunghwa Picture Tubes (Bermuda) Ltd. (" CPTB" ) for non- performance of a payment. Later on March 28, 2019, Tatung Co. and Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Ltd. ("CPT") were added as defendants in the lawsuit. CPTTG claimed that Tatung Co. and CPTTG were jointly and severally liable for the claimed payment. On June 30, 2023, the High People's Court of Fujian Province has made a judgement. The court ruled that CPTB shall be liable for the claimed payment, and CPT and Tatung Co. shall be jointly and severally liable for the claimed payment. Tatung Co. has appointed attorneys to review the judgement and has come to a conclusion that the possibility of the Supreme People's Court of the People's Republic of China upholding the judgment is low. Hence, Tatung Co. has filed an appeal. Tatung Co. stated that it is difficult to determine whether the above requests should be compensated. The content and amount of the above requests may be resolved through lawsuits in the future, and it is not clear whether enterprise have existing obligations, and/or it is not probable that there will be an outflow of resources for the settlement of claims, thus, there are not recognized as a provision for liabilities in accordance with IAS 37. Therefore, our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

3-1

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 of Tatung Co. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

  1. Revenue recognition
    Please refer to Note 4(q) for the accounting principles on revenue recognition and Note 6(ac) for the description on revenue recognition.
    1. Description of key audit matter:
      The timing for the transfer of commodity control is more complicated not only because of the diversity of income sources and huge transaction volume of the Company, but also the transaction terms vary with each client. These factors expose the Company to a significant risk of untimely recognition of revenue.
      Therefore, the test of revenue recognition is one of our key audit matters.
    2. Auditing procedures performed:
      The main audit procedures of the key audit matter mentioned above include:

‧ Understanding and testing the internal control design and implementation of the sales cycle.

‧Sampling the original order or contract and reviewing the transaction terms in order to evaluate the accuracy of the timing for revenue recognition.

    • Performing cut off test for revenues during the periods before and after the balance sheet date and reviewing whether there are significant sales returns and discounts after the period to confirm the reasonableness of revenue recognition.
  1. Contingent Liabilities
    Please refer to Note 9(e) of non-consolidated financial report for the disclosure of contingent liabilities.
    1. Description of key audit matter:
      In December 2018, Chunghwa Picture Tubes Technology (Group) Co., Ltd. ("CPTTG") filed a civil lawsuit against Chunghwa Picture Tubes (Bermuda) Ltd. (" CPTB" ) for non-performance of a payment. Later on March 28, 2019, Tatung Co. and Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Ltd. ("CPT") were added as defendants in the lawsuit. CPTTG claimed that Tatung Co. and CPTTG were jointly and severally liable for the claimed payment. On June 30, 2023, the High People's Court of Fujian Province has made a judgement. The court ruled that CPTB shall be liable for the claimed payment, and CPT and Tatung Co. shall be jointly and severally liable for the claimed payment. Tatung Co. has appointed attorneys to review the judgement and has come to a conclusion that the possibility of the Supreme People's Court of the People's Republic of China upholding the judgment is low. Hence, Tatung Co. has filed an appeal. Tatung Co. stated that it is difficult to determine whether the above requests should be compensated. The content and amount of the above requests may be resolved through lawsuits in the future, and it is not clear whether enterprise have existing obligations, and/or it is not probable that there will be an outflow of resources for the settlement of claims, thus, there are not recognized as a provision for liabilities in accordance with IAS 37. Since Tatung Co. and CPT claimed the amount mentioned above would possibly be solved through litigation procedures and the assertion involved significant judgement, assessment and estimation of the management.
      Therefore, the assessment of contingent liabilities is one of our key audit matters.

3-2

    1. Auditing procedures performed:
      The main audit procedures of the key audit matter mentioned above include:
      • Obtaining the assertion and statement of the Company for the contingent liability.
      • Interviewing with the Company' s management and internal legal personnel, and reviewing documents related to legal cases.
      • Obtaining the legal opinion from lawyers appointed by the Company concerning the case and appointed the auditor's expert to assist in reviewing the legal opinion, understanding the process of forming the opinion and confirming the reasonableness of the conclusion.
      • Assessing whether the accounting judgments and estimations are consistent and reasonable in accordance with the accounting standards.
  1. Investment using the equity method

Please refer to Notes 4(i) and (j) for accounting policies for investing in affiliated enterprises and subsidiaries; Note 5 for the judgment of control; and Note 6(h) and (i) for details on the investment using the equity method.

  1. Description of key audit matter:
    As of December 31, 2023, the investment of the Company using the equity method was $64,217,168
    thousand, representing 73% of the total assets, which is significant for the financial statements. We evaluate whether each invested enterprise has substantial control ability, and every time the aforementioned statement applies, we evaluate further on whether it has been regarded as a subsidiary in accordance with the regulations and included in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. We also examine whether the long-term equity investments that have a significant influence over the invested enterprise are evaluated using the equity method. Furthermore, we assess the accuracy of the aforementioned accounting treatment, which has a significant impact on the financial statements.
    Therefore, the use of the equity method to assess the control or significant influence of the investment individual is one of our key audit matters.
  2. Auditing procedures performed:
    The main audit procedures of the key audit matter mentioned above include:
    • Obtaining the latest investment structure chart of the Company, inquiring the reasons for relevant changes, and understanding the accounting basis and the appropriateness of the classification of the Company's investment using the equity method.
    • Evaluating the shareholding status of the Company in each reinvested enterprise, understanding the composition of the board of directors, management, shareholder structure, and related investment contracts, to evaluate whether the Company's identification of each reinvested enterprise is handled in accordance with the relevant standards.
    • Examining whether the financial statements audited by an accountant have been obtained in accordance with the regulations when recognizing investment gains and losses and other comprehensive gains and losses for investments using the equity method and understanding the impact of major events in the investee company's financial statements on the non-consolidated financial statements.
    • Requesting confirmation or taking physical count to verify the existence and ownership of equity method investments on the books.

3-3

  1. Fair value evaluation of investment property
    Please refer to Note 4(k) for the accounting policies of investment property; Note 5 for the accounting estimates and assumptions on the fair value of investment property; and Note 6(m) for relevant details of investment property.
    1. Description of key audit matter:
      Since the subsequent measurement of investment property adopts the fair value model, the method and process of fair value assessment involves subjective accounting estimates and judgments of the management. Also, the inclusion of changes in fair value in profit or loss will significantly affect the fair value adjustment benefits of investment property in the current year.
      Therefore, the fair value evaluation of investment property is one of our key audit matters.
    2. Auditing procedures performed:
      The main audit procedures of the key audit matter mentioned above include:
      • Assessing the professions, competence, and independence of external independent evaluators used by management, and verifying the evaluators' qualifications to confirm that there are no issues that affect their objectivity or limit their scope of work.
      • Appointing auditor's experts to assist in reviewing the fair value valuation report, understanding whether the valuation methods and assumptions comply with the financial reporting standards for securities issuers and the technical rules for real estate valuation, as well as assessing the relevance and reliability of the data sources and important parameters used in the valuation report to confirm the reasonableness of its valuation results.
      • Querying and re-accounting to confirm the correctness of the accounting process.
  2. Deferred income tax assets
    Please refer to Notes 4 (u) for the accounting policies of deferred income tax assets Note 5 for the accounting estimate and assumption on the deferred income tax assets and Notes 6 (y) for relevant details of evaluation of deferred income tax assets.
    1. Description of key audit matter:
      The recognition and evaluation which made by the Company of future growth and the realization year for deferred income assets of the temporary difference between deferred tax assets and those aren't recognized as deferred tax assets, considered as significant unsure and management judgment.
      Therefore, the deferred income tax assets is one of our key audit matters in the audit.
    2. Auditing procedures performed:
      The main audit procedures of the key audit matter mentioned above include:
      ‧Evaluating the reasonableness of the expect growth and assumption used by the management that deferred income tax assets will be realized.
      • Evaluating the Company disclosure related to deferred income tax assets is appropriate.

3-4

Other Matter

We did not audit the financial statements of certain equity-accounted investees. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it related to the amounts included for certain equity-accounted investees, are based solely on the reports of the other auditors. The amount of long-term investments in these investee companies represented 2%and 8% of the related total assets at December 31, 2023 and 2022 (restated), and the related investment gain represented 4% and 3% of total profit before tax for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (restated).

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Non-Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the 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 or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance (including the Audit Committee or supervisors) are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Non-Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor' s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of 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 financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 Company's internal control.
  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

3-5

  1. Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the 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 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.
  2. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  3. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on these financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the 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 financial statements of the current period 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 Chen, Chung-Che and Lai, Li-Chen.
