Shareholders Service

Dear Shareholders,

2023 has been a year full of challenges. After the COVID-19 pandemic, global inflation risks remain high, and trade barriers, geopolitical tensions, and economic uncertainties have influenced the prospects and development of global industries and the overall economy. On the other hand, climate change has prompted greater attention to ESG data, green energy development, and the low-carbon economy. With the rise of artificial intelligence, generative AI has already forecasted innovations in the operating models of various industries. We want to thank our partners for their strong support over the past year and the collective efforts of our management team and colleagues. The company has actively adjusted its operational strategies and seized opportunities, striving to achieve sustainable growth and governance. In fiscal year 2023, our consolidated revenue reached NT$5.67 billion, with consolidated net profit after tax amounting to NT$229 million.

In response to the rise of AI and the industrial green energy transformation, we focus on industrial control/commercial control hosts as a member of the Acer Group. Together with our channel partners, we are leveraging Edge AI edge computing and AI cloud computing to solve industrial applications such as factory automation, digital campuses, and smart learning, AI interactive digital retail, and transportation. We also provide rugged products that are efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly for long-term use. Global climate change impacts energy supply and environmental stability, prompting companies to adopt technological solutions such as data analysis and AI computing to reduce risks from the overall environment. Our company continues to develop core computing devices with edge computing capabilities and platform data analysis, combining high-quality industrial hosts with AI sensing technology to develop applications in Edge AI and AI cloud computing, catering to the growing demand for industrial computer-related products across industries. Additionally, our self-developed intelligent remote device management platform has been well received by global customers. Data shows that it effectively reduces the need for frontline personnel dispatch, shortens maintenance time, and enhances overall operational efficiency.

Looking ahead to 2024, we believe this will be the year when AI drives the sustainable development of green energy transformation. The company will continue to build a diversified value chain, expanding globally and driving regional integration in collaboration with our partners. We are confident that we can meet various challenges, strengthen the expansion of our core business, and establish the company’s growth value and sustainable development.

Sincerely,

Chairman, Jian Hui-Xiang
