New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 27% This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things. However, if a company consistently has a high level of non-cash earnings, it may be a sign that they are recognizing revenue from customers before the full value of the sales are received as cash or they are not depreciating the value of their assets appropriately. These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk High level of non-cash earnings (27% accrual ratio). Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (7.7% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$100m (NT$1.17b market cap, or US$36.9m). Valuation Update With 7 Day Price Move • Jan 20

This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks.

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (8.2% average weekly change).

Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (7.1% average weekly change). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Market cap is less than US$100m (NT$1.39b market cap, or US$44.3m). New Risk • Nov 14
