Key Financial Metrics
The filing does not provide comprehensive financial statements, revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity metrics for the reporting period. The only financial data disclosed relates to the dividend distribution:

Material Changes
The filing details a material adjustment to the dividend per share amount. The original approval of NT$4.50 per share was adjusted to NT$4.50002042 per share. This change resulted from the reclamation of shares following the vesting of restricted stock awards from 2021, 2022, and 2023. These events occurred between the Board's approval date (February 12, 2025) and the record date, causing a slight reduction in the number of common shares outstanding.
