Business Review and Outlook 12 1H26 Revenue Reached a Record High for the Same Period, with an Upgraded AI Product Mix Driving Margin Expansion: Driven by sustained growth in demand for high-end AI applications, 1H26 revenue reached NT$89,159 million, up 13.9% YoY and setting a record high for the period. Combined revenue from Servers/Optical Modules/IC Substrates increased 113% YoY and accounted for 21.6% of total revenue. As high- value-added products contributed a larger share of sales, 1H26 gross margin and operating margin rose to 22.4% and 7.0%, respectively, demonstrating that the company’s growth momentum is increasingly translating from top-line expansion into stronger profitability. 1 2 AI Infrastructure Buildout Ushers in a Long-Term Growth Cycle for High-End PCBs; Zhen Ding Enters Its Next Phase of Growth through Comprehensive Technology Deployment: As next-generation AI platforms progressively enter mass production, the company’s Servers/Optical Modules business is expected to strengthen sequentially from 2Q26 through the remainder of the year. The company maintains its target of more than doubling full-year revenue from the related business. Over the medium to long term, AI demand is expected to expand beyond servers and optical modules into end applications such as Edge AI and humanoid robots, further increasing high-end PCB content, technical complexity, and product value. The Company remains highly confident in its growth prospects for 2026-2030. 3 Building the Next Phase of Growth through the Industry’s Largest Capacity Expansion: High-end PCB capacity buildout and customer qualification require long lead times. Investing ahead of demand is therefore essential to capture the long-term growth opportunities created by AI. The company plans capital expenditures of NT$80 billion in 2026 and expects to continue its strategic investments in 2027–2028, focusing on high-growth, high-value-added areas including HDI/mSAP, HLC, IC substrates, and advanced FPCs. The company currently has 13 new plants under construction and another 16 plants in the planning stage. New capacity will come online in phases from 2026 to 2030, in line with customer qualification and mass-production schedules, progressively converting capital investment into revenue and profit contributions. 4 Leading Interconnect Semiconductor Technology Formally Submitted an Application for a Main Board Listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on July 2, 2026: The listing application is currently under review.

Global Production Footprint Continues to Expand, with Benefits Expected to Materialize from 2026 ◼ Thailand Fab 1: ◼ Fab 1 primarily manufactures high-end HDI, HLC and optical module products and entered mass production in 3Q25. ◼ The production ramp-up has progressed smoothly. Fab 1 has completed customer qualification and commenced mass production for multiple customers, while qualification is underway with several other leading global server and optical module customers. ◼ Fab 1 achieved break-even in July 2026. ◼ Three additional fabs and one mechanical drilling center are currently under construction, with trial production expected to commence progressively from 4Q26. ◼ Huai’an Campus: ◼ By the end of 2026, six new high-end PCB plants are scheduled to be completed across the HA, HB and HC campuses in Huai’an. ◼ The HD campus broke ground in 2026/8/10, with the planned HDI/mSAP and HLC plants expected to be topped out by the end of July and commence production in March 2027. ◼ Shenzhen Campus: ◼ The Smart Manufacturing Base at Shenzhen Campus III officially broke ground in July 2026. The project will comprise three smart manufacturing plants, with production capabilities focused on high-end substrate-like PCBs for AI servers and optical modules, as well as advanced FPCs for AI devices and other high-end products.

Business Overview by Product Application 20 AI ServerOptical Module ◼ For AI servers, Intelligent HDI (iHDI) and HLC products for GPU and ASIC customers are progressively entering mass production, with the company targeting continued market- share gains going forward. ◼ The company continues to work closely with customers on product development for platforms spanning the next 2-3 generations. ◼ For optical modules, 1.6T and subsequent generations require mSAP technology. Demand for high-end optical module PCBs continues to outstrip supply globally, and Zhen Ding is actively expanding its related production capacity. ◼ The company’s orders are primarily driven by 1.6T high-speed boards. Revenue is expected to grow more than double YoY in 2026, and customers have already begun reserving 2027 capacity. The company targets becoming the world’s largest supplier of high-end optical module PCBs by 2027. AI Smartphone AI Glasses/VR/AR ◼ Specification upgrades for new smartphone models in 2026 are expected to increase the PCB content value per device across both flexible and rigid PCBs. The resulting improvement in product mix is expected to support gross margin performance. ◼ As AI glasses evolve toward lighter, thinner and more highly integrated designs, the number of FPCs per device is increasing, while rigid PCBs are adopting finer-line circuitry and mSAP processes. These developments are significantly raising the technical barriers for PCB suppliers. Revenue from AI glasses applications is expected to maintain rapid growth in both 2026 and 2027.
