Note:
1. The greenhouse gas emission factors adopted by the Company are primarily based on the original emission factors published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and are calculated using the latest fuel calorific values and the Standards for Greenhouse Gas Emission Factors announced by the Ministry of Environment on February 5, 2024.
2. The general industrial waste generated by the Company has been officially deregulated by the Changhua County Environmental Protection Bureau in 2021 (Year 110 of the ROC calendar) due to its low pollution potential. As such, subsequent waste has been categorized as domestic waste and is exempt from additional regulatory reporting.
3. Prior to 2023 (inclusive), due to difficulties in data collection, the Company’s GHG calculations were based solely on data from production facilities. Beginning in 2024, emissions data from all facilities in Taiwan under the control of the parent company have been included in the inventory boundary.

2. The general business waste generated by the company has low pollution, and it was delisted from management by the Changhua County Environmental Protection Bureau in the year 2021. Therefore, subsequent waste generated is classified as household waste without additional reporting.
3. Before and including 2023, because to difficulties in information collection, our company's greenhouse gas calculations were based on data from factories. The statistics will include the headquarters company's controlled areas in Taiwan.
