Review Report of Independent Accountants

To: PANJIT INTERNATIONAL INC.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of PANJIT INTERNATIONAL INC. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries as of 30 June 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended 30 June 2024 and 2023 and consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended 30 June 2024 and 2023, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including the 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 International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as endorsed and became effective by Financial Supervisory Commission 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 explained in the following paragraph, we conducted our reviews in accordance with Statement of Auditing Standards No. 2410, "Review of Financial Statements". 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 explained in Note 4, the financial statements of certain insignificant subsidiaries were not reviewed by independent accountants. Those statements reflected total assets of NT$5,224,507 thousand and NT$4,516,682 thousand, constituting 18% and 16% of the consolidated total assets, and total liabilities of NT$984,916 thousand and NT$871,629 thousand, constituting 7% and 6% of the consolidated total liabilities as of 30 June 2024 and 2023, respectively; and total comprehensive income of (NT$103,005) thousand, (NT$118,007) thousand, NT$209,260 thousand and NT$151,031 thousand, constituting (22)%, (12)%, 64% and 29% of the consolidated total comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended 30 June 2024 and 2023, respectively. As explained in Note 6.(8), the financial statements of certain associates and joint ventures accounted for under the equity method were not reviewed by independent accountants. Those associates and joint ventures under equity method amounted to NT$136,644 thousand and NT$137,566 thousand as of 30 June 2024 and 2023, respectively. The related shares of profits from the associates and joint ventures under the equity method amounted to NT$934 thousand, NT$9 thousand, (NT$970) thousand and (NT$4,069) thousand for the three-month and six-month periods

~2~

ended 30 June 2024 and 2023, respectively. The information related to above subsidiaries, and associates and joint ventures accounted for under the equity method disclosed in Note 13 was also not reviewed by independent accountants.

Qualified Conclusion

Based on our reviews and the review reports of other independent accountants (please refer to the Other Matter paragraph of our report), except for the effect of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had the financial statements of certain insignificant subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using equity method and the information been reviewed by independent accountants described in the preceding 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 Company and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2024 and 2023, and their consolidated financial performance for the three-month and six- month periods ended 30 June 2024 and 2023, and their consolidated cash flows for the six-month periods ended 30 June 2024 and 2023, 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 Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Other Matter - Making Reference to the Reviews of Other Independent Accountants

We did not review the financial statements of certain investment accounted for under the equity method, which reflected the associates and joint ventures under equity method in the amount of NT1,575,905 thousand and NT$1,499,505 thousand, constituting 5% and 5% of consolidated total assets as of 30 June 2024 and 2023, and the related shares of profits from the associates and joint ventures under the equity method of NT$43,019 thousand, NT$71,183 thousand, NT$32,062 thousand, and NT$41,432 thousand, constituting 11%, 11%, 8% and 7% of consolidated pretax income for the three-month and six-month periods ended 30 June 2024 and 2023, respectively. Those financial statements were reviewed by other independent accountants, whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our review results are based solely on the reports of the other independent accountants.
