- 1 - INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REVIEW REPORT The Board of Directors and Shareholders Simplo Technology Co., Ltd. Introduction We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Simplo Technology Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months and nine months then ended, the consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine months then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as 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 International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the consolidated financial statements based on our reviews. Scope of Review Except as explained in the following paragraph, we conducted our reviews in accordance with the Standards on Review Engagements of the Republic of China 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity”. 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 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 disclosed in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of some non-significant subsidiaries referred to in the first paragraph were not reviewed. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, combined total assets of these non-significant subsidiaries were NT$3,894,716 thousand and NT$4,334,603 thousand, respectively, representing 5% and 6%, respectively, of the consolidated total assets, and combined total liabilities of these subsidiaries were NT$182,330 thousand and NT$215,783 thousand, respectively, representing 1% both, of the consolidated total liabilities; for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the amounts of combined comprehensive income of these subsidiaries were NT$153,122 thousand, NT$(35,157) thousand, NT$(97,418) thousand and NT$299,277 thousand, respectively, representing 6%, (2)%, (3)% and 6%, respectively, of the consolidated total comprehensive income. As disclosed in Note 13 to

- 2 - the consolidated financial statements, the Investments accounted for using the equity method on September 30, 2025 and 2024 were NT$0 thousand and NT$94,512 thousand respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, share of gains or losses of associate were NT$(409) thousand and NT$(385) thousand, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, share of gains or losses of associate were NT$(3,230) thousand and NT$(2,264) thousand, respectively. The relevant information disclosed based on the investee company's financial statements for the same period that have not been reviewed. Qualified Conclusion Based on our reviews, except for adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had the financial statements of the non-significant subsidiaries and Investments accounted for using the equity method as described in the preceding paragraph been reviewed, nothing has come to our attention that caused us to believe that the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, and of its consolidated financial performance for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, and its consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China. The engagement partners on the reviews resulting in this independent auditors’ review report are Su-Li Fang and Cheng-Chih Lin.

- 8 - SIMPLO TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2025 AND 2024 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise) (Reviewed, Not Audited) 1. GENERAL INFORMATION Simplo Technology Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated in April 1992. The Company is mainly engaged in the manufacture of information software services, lighting equipment, data storage and processing equipment, electro nic components, batteries, power generation, transmission, distribution of machinery and wireless communication machinery and equipment. The Company’s shares have been listed on the Taipei Exchange (TPEx) since November 2001. The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively known as the “Group”) are presented in the Company’s functional currency, the New Taiwan dollar. 2. APPROVAL OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The consolidated financial statements were approved by the C ompany’s board of directors on November 10, 2025. 3. APPLICATION OF NEW, AMENDED AND REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS a. Initial application of the amendments to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) (collectively, the “IFRSs”) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) 1) Amendments to IAS 21 “Lack of Exchangeability” The initial application of the Amendments to IAS 21 “Lack of Exchangeability” did not have a material impact on the Group’s accounting policies 2) Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 “Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments” - the amendments to the application guidance of derecognition of financial assets. b. The IFRS Accounting Standards endorsed by the FSC for application starting from 2026 New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations Effective Date Announced by IASB Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 “Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments” - the amendments to the application guidance of derecognition of financial liabilities January 1, 2026
Page 10
- 9 - New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations Effective Date Announced by IASB Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 “Contracts Referencing Dependent Electricity” January 1, 2026 Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards – V olume 11 January 1, 2026 1) Amendments to IFRS 9 and I FRS 7 “Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments” a) Amendments to the Application Guidelines on the Classification of Financial Assets The amendments mainly amend the requirements for the classification of financial assets, including: (1) If a financial asset contains a contingent feature that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows and the contingent even t itself does not relate directly to changes in basic lending risks and costs (e.g., whether the debtor achieves a contractually specified reduction in carbon emissions), the financial asset has contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding if, and only if: In all possible scenarios (before and after the occurrence of a contingent event), the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding; and In all possible scenarios, the contractual cash flows would not be significantly different from the contractual cash flows on a financial instrument with identical contractual terms, but without such a contingent feature. (2) Clarifying that financial assets with no recourse rights refer to the ultimate right of the enterprise to receive cash flows, which are contractually limited to cash flows generated by specific assets. (3) Clarifying that contractual linked instruments establish multiple tiered s ecurities through a waterfall payment structure to create a payment priority order for holders of financial assets, thereby generating concentrated credit risk and causing disproportionate allocation of cash shortfalls from the underlying pool among different tiered securities. b) Amendments to the Application Guidelines on the Derecognition of Financial Liabilities The amendments primarily state that financial liabilities should be derecognized on the settlement date; however , when settling a financial l iability in cash using an electronic payment system, an entity can choose to derecognize the financial liability before the settlement date if, and only if, the entity has initiated a payment instruction that resulted in: The entity having no practical ability to withdraw, stop or cancel the payment instruction;
Page 11
- 10 - The entity having no practical ability to access the cash to be used for settlement as a result of the payment instruction; and The settlement risk associated with the electronic payment sy stem being insignificant. The Group should retrospectively apply the amendments but is not required to restate the comparative periods, and will recognize the impact of initial application on the initial application date. However, if the entity can restate the comparative periods without using hindsight, it may choose to do so. As of the date this consolidated financial report was approved for issuance, the Group continues to assess the impact of each amendment on its financial position and financial performance, and will disclose the related impacts when the assessment is completed. c. The IFRSs issued by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), but not yet endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC New, Revised or Amended Standards and Interpretations Effective Date Announced by IASB (Note 1) Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture” To be determined by IASB IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements” January 1, 2027 (Note 2) IFRS 19 “Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures” (Including the 2025 amendment) January 1, 2027 Note 1: Unless stated otherwise, the above IFRS Accounting Standards are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after their respective effective dates. Note 2: On September 25, 2025, the FSC announced that Taiwanese companies should adopt IFRS 18 from January 1, 2028. Companies may also choose to adopt IFRS 18 earlier if the FSC approves it. 1) IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements” IFRS 18 will supersede IAS 1” Presentation of Financial Statements”. The main changes comprise: Items of income and expenses included in the statement of profit or loss shall be classified in to the operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discounted operations categories. The statement of profit or loss shall present totals and subtotals for operating profit or loss, profit or loss before financing and income taxes and profit or loss. Provides guidance to enhance the requirements of aggregation and disaggregation: The Group shall identify the assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows that arise from individual transactions or other events and shall classify and aggregate them into groups based on shared characteristics, so as to result in the presentation in the primary financial statements of line items that have at least one similar characteristic. The Group shall disaggregate items with different characteristics in the primary financial statements and in the notes. The Group labels items as “other” only if it cannot find a more informative label.
Page 12
- 11 - Disclosures on Management -defined Performance Measures (MPMs): When in public communications outside financial statements and communicating to users of financial statements management’s view of an aspect of the financial performance of the Group as a whole, the Group shall disclose related information about its MPMs in a single note to the f inancial statements, including the description of such measures, calculations, reconciliations to the subtotal or total specified by IFRS Accounting Standards and the income tax and non -controlling interests effects of related reconciliation items. Except for the above impact, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Group is continuously assessing the possible impact of the application of other standards and interpretations on the Group’s financial position and financial performance and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed. 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a. Statement of compliance The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting,” endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC. The consolidated financial statements do not present all the disclosures required for a complet e set of annual consolidated financial statements prepared under the IFRS Accounting Standards endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC. b. Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis exce pt for financial instruments which are measured at fair value and net defined benefit liabilities which are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets. 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 entirety, are described as follows: 1) Level 1 inputs are quoted price s (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available on the measurement date.; 2) Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as pr ices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and 3) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for an asset or liability. c. Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company (i.e., its subsidiaries, including structured entities).
Page 13
- 12 - Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective dates o f acquisitions up to the effective dates of disposals, as appropriate. Adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Company. All intra -group transactions, balances, i ncome 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. Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the interests of the Group and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their 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 direc tly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Company. See Note 12 and Tables 6 and 7 for detailed information on subsidiaries , the percentages of ownership and main businesses. d. Other significant accounting policy Please refer to the summary of significant accounting policies of consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,2024, except the following explanation. 1) Retirement Benefits Pension cost for an interim period is calculated on a year -to-date basis by using the actuarially determined pension cost rate at the end of the prior financial year and adjusted for major market fluctuations of the current period, as well as major plan revisions, liquidations or other one-time major matters. 2) Taxation Income tax expense rep resents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The interim period income tax expense is accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings, that is, the estimated average annual effective income tax rate applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period. 5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION AND UNCERTAINTY When the Group adopts accounting policies, the management must make relevant judgments, estimates, and assumptions based on historical experience and other relevant factors for information that is not easily obtainable from other sources. Actual results may differ from estimates.
Page 14
- 13 - In developing significant accounting estimates, the Group will consider the potential impact of the U.S. counterpart tariff measures on cash flow projections, growth rates, discount rates, and other related significant estimates, and the management will continually review the estimates and underlying assumptions. 6.

Refer to Note 31 for information relating to investments in financial assets at amortized cost – current pledged as security. 10. NOTES, ACCOUNTS AND OTHER RECEIVABLES September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 September 30, 2024 Notes and accounts receivable At amortized cost Gross carrying amount $ 15,316,905 $ 15,170,246 $ 13,717,351 Less: Allowance for impairment loss ( 49,206 ) ( 49,502 ) ( 49,520 ) $ 15,267,699 $ 15,120,744 $ 13,667,831 Other receivables $ 75,366 $ 281,341 $ 225,303 Accounts receivable The primary credit period of sales of goods is between 45 and 90 days. The Group adopted a policy of only dealing with entities that are rated the equivalent of investment grade or higher and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. Credit rating information is obtained from other publicly available financial information or its own trading records to rate its major customers. The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties. Credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the management annually. The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of lifetime expected loss provision for all accounts receivable. The expected credit losses on accounts receivable are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default records of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor’s current financial position, adjusted for general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate and an assessment of both the current as well as the forecasted direction of economic conditions at the reporting date. As the Group’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments, the provision for loss allowance based on past due status is not further distinguished according to the Group’s different customer base. The Group writes off an account receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery, e.g. when the
Page 18
- 17 - debtor has been placed under liquidation. For accounts receivable that have been written off, the Group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in profit or loss. The following table details the loss allowance of notes and accounts receivable based on the Group’s provision matrix: September 30, 2025 Not Past Due 1 to 30 Days Past Due 31 to 60 Days Past Due 61 to 90 Days Past Due 91 to 180 Days Past Due Over 180 Days Past Due Total Gross carrying amount $ 14,557,340 $ 701,349 $ 36,068 ( $ 58 ) $ 5,740 $ 16,466 $ 15,316,905 Loss allowance (Lifetime ECL) ( 28,951 ) ( 7,161 ) ( 6,693 ) - ( 55 ) ( 6,346 ) ( 49,206 ) Amortized cost $ 14,528,389 $ 694,188 $ 29,375 ( $ 58 ) $ 5,685 $ 10,120 $ 15,267,699 December 31, 2024 Not Past Due 1 to 30 Days Past Due 31 to 60 Days Past Due 61 to 90 Days Past Due 91 to 180 Days Past Due Over 180 Days Past Due Total Gross carrying amount $ 14,201,624 $ 844,544 $ 110,227 $ 327 $ - $ 13,524 $ 15,170,246 Loss allowance (Lifetime ECL) ( 16,186 ) ( 7,029 ) ( 24,483 ) - - ( 1,804 ) ( 49,502 ) Amortized cost $ 14,185,438 $ 837,515 $ 85,744 $ 327 $ - $ 11,720 $ 15,120,744 September 30, 2024 Not Past Due 1 to 30 Days Past Due 31 to 60 Days Past Due 61 to 90 Days Past Due 91 to 180 Days Past Due Over 180 Days Past Due Total Gross carrying amount $ 13,480,586 $ 180,183 $ 1,220 $ 30,826 $ 2,386 $ 22,150 $ 13,717,351 Loss allowance (Lifetime ECL) ( 31,005 ) ( 8,987 ) ( 587 ) ( 105 ) ( 37 ) ( 8,799 ) ( 49,520 ) Amortized cost $ 13,449,581 $ 171,196 $ 633 $ 30,721 $ 2,349 $ 13,351 $ 13,667,831 The movements of the loss allowance of notes and accounts receivable were as follows: For the Nine Months Ended September 30 2025 2024 Balance, beginning of period $ 49,502 $ 49,438 Add: Net (reverse) recognize of loss allowance ( 216 ) 4 Foreign exchange gains and losses ( 80 ) 78 Balance, end of period $ 49,206 $ 49,520 11.

These risks include market risk (including foreign currency risk and interest rate risks), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group seeks to minimize the effects of these risks by using derivative financial instruments to hedge ri sk exposures.

There has been no change to the Group’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which these risks are managed and measured. a) Foreign currency risk Several subsidiaries of the Group have foreign currency denominated sales and purchases, which expose the Group to foreign currency risk. Exchange rate exposures are managed within approved policy parameters utilizing foreign exchange forward contracts. The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities (including those eliminated on consolidation) and of the derivatives exposed to foreign currency risk at t he end of the reporting period are set out in Note 33. Sensitivity analysis The Group was mainly exposed to the USD. The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in the New Taiwan dollar (i.e. the functional currency ) against the relevant foreign currencies. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the end of the reporting
Page 44
- 43 - period for a 5% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number below indicates an increase in pre-tax profit associated with the New Taiwan dollar strengthening 5% against the relevant currency. For a 5% weakening of the New Taiwan dollar against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impa ct on pre-tax profit, and the balances below would be negative. USD Impact For the Nine Months Ended September 30 2025 2024 Profit or loss $ 1,264,785 $ 1,361,241 b) Interest rate risk The Group is exposed to interest rate risk because entities in the Group borrow funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is managed by the Group by maintaining an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rates. Hedging activities are evaluated regularly to align with interest rate views and defined risk appetite ensuring the most cost-effective hedging strategies are applied. The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows: September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 September 30, 2024 Fair value interest rate risk Financial assets $14,835,633 $17,059,996 $15,666,993 Financial liabilities 385,000 449,228 808,011 Cash flow interest rate risk Financial assets 17,097,653 16,839,105 15,047,975 Sensitivity analysis The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the Group’s exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis was prepared assuming the amount of each liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. If interest rates had been 10 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s pre-tax profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 would both increase/decrease by NT$12,823 thousand and NT$11,286 thousand. 2) Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that the counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. At the end of the reporting period, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk, which would cause a financial loss to the
Page 45
- 44 - Group due to the f ailure of the counterparty to discharge its obligation and due to the financial guarantees provided by the Group , could be equal to the carrying amount of the respective recognized financial assets as stated in the balance sheets. The counterparties of li quidity and derivative financial instruments are banks with high credit quality by international credit rating agencies, so the credit risk is not high. The counterparties of accounts receivable cover a wide range of customers and are spread across differ ent industries and geographic regions. The Group continuously evaluates the financial position of customers with accounts receivable. Apart from the main customers of the Group, companies A, B and C, the Group did not have significant credit risk to any s ingle counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. As the above customers were all reputable manufacturers, the credit risk was limited. Concentration of credit risk to any other counterparty did not exceed 5% of the total accounts receivable. 3) Liquidity risk The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. In addition , management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants. The Group relies on bank borrowings as a significant source of liquidity. As of September 30, 202 5, December 31, 20 24 and September 30, 202 4, the Group had available unutilized bank loan facilities set out in (c) below. a) Liquidity and interest rate risk tables for non-derivative financial liabilities The following table details the Group’s remaining contractual maturities for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed upon repayment periods. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities from the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The table includes both principal and interest cash flows. Specifically, bank loans with a repayment on demand clause were included in the earliest time band regardless of the probability of the banks choosing to exercise their rights. The maturity dates for other non-derivative financial liabilities were based on the agreed upon repayment dates.

The amounts included ab ove for variable interest rate instruments for non -derivative financial liabilities are subject to change if changes in variable interest rates differ from those estimates of interest rates determined at the end of the reporting period. b) Liquidity and interest rate risk table for derivative financial liabilities The following table details the Group’s liquidity analysis of its derivative financial instruments. The table is based on the undiscounted contractual net cash inflows and outflows on derivative instruments that settle on a net basis, and the undiscounted gross inflows and outflows on those derivatives that require gross settlement. When the amount payable or receivable is not fixed, the amount disclosed is determined by reference to the projected interest rates as illustrated by the yield curves at the end of the reporting period.
