QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
2021 ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS MEETING
Q: What is cumulative voting?
Cumulative voting is a method of voting for Directors of ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC. (the Company) by a Holder(s) of ADSs as of the ADS Record Date. This voting method entitles you to as many votes as equal the number of ADSs held by you as of the ADS Record Date, multiplied by the number of Directors to be elected.
Q: How do I cumulate my votes in the election of Directors?
In connection with the cumulative voting feature for the election of Directors, you are entitled to as many votes as equal to the number of ADSs held by you as of the ADS Record Date multiplied by the number of Directors, including Independent Directors and Non-Independent Directors, to be elected. You may cast all of your votes for any single Director Nominee (whether an Independent or a Non-Independent Director Nominee). The votes can also be distributed to several Director Nominees whether Independent Directors Nominees and Non-Independent Directors Nominees.
For example, when nine (9) Directors, including five (5) Independent Directors and four (4) Non-Independent Directors, are to be elected, a Holder of 100 ADSs may cast all 900 votes for any one single Director Nominee (whether an Independent or a Non-Independent Director Nominee). The 900 votes can also be distributed to several Director Nominees in any manner by so noting in the space provided on the voting instructions card. Please note that Beneficial Owners should contact their broker, bank or nominee to cumulate votes for Director Nominees.
To exercise your votes cumulatively as an ADS Holder, you may either:
| Exercise your votes For All or Withhold All with noted exceptions by completing Box A on the ADS voting card |
OR
| Allocate your votes to individual Director Nominees by completing Box B in the ADS voting card. Please note that the maximum number of votes you may allocate is calculated by multiplying (x) the number of ADSs you hold as of the ADS Record Date with (y) the number of Director Nominees (in this case nine (9) Director Nominees). |

Attachment 3-1
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC. and its subsidiaries (the Group) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other independent accountants, as described in the Other matters section of our report, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Groups 2020 consolidated financial statements. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters for the Groups 2020 consolidated financial statements are stated as follows:
Measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation
Description
Please refer to Note 4(27) to the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policies on revenue recognition; Note 5 for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions of revenue recognition; and Note 6(19) for details of the revenue.
The Groups revenue is primarily generated from the assembly and testing services of high-integration and high-precision integrated circuits based on customers specification, and is recognized based on measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation during the service period. The Group recognized revenue associated with assembly services, services for Liquid Crystal Display and other Flat-Panel Display Driver Semiconductors and Bumping totaling NT$18,008,651 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2020. Such revenue is recognized over a period of time, during which the Group satisfied its performance obligations to the customer. The Group used an input method (input costs incurred as a percentage of total expected input costs) to measure the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation and determine the amount of related revenue. Since the measurement of the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation is complex and subject to managements significant estimation, measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation was identified as a key audit matter.
How our audit addressed the matter
Our key audit procedures performed in respect of the above included the following:
1. | Testing the effectiveness of controls relating to accounting for revenue generated from aforementioned services, including the controls addressing the completeness and accuracy of the data utilized and the managements process to recognize and measure such revenue. |
2. | Validating the reasonableness of total expected input costs incurred on a testing basis relating to aforementioned services, and recalculating managements estimate of the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation. |
3. | Testing the reasonableness of managements key assumptions to estimate the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation (including utilizing data from recently completed services to estimate the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation for in-progress services). |

Other matters
Report of other independent accountants
We did not audit the financial statements of a certain investment accounted for under the equity method which were audited by other independent accountants. Therefore, our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the consolidated financial statements and the information on the investee disclosed in Note 13 is based solely on the reports of the other independent accountants. The balance of this investment accounted for under the equity method amounted to NT$250,769 thousand and NT$249,793 thousand, constituting 0.7% and 0.7% of the consolidated total assets as at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and total net comprehensive income including the share of profit and other comprehensive income of associate accounted for under the equity method amounted to NT$37,976 thousand and NT$69,570 thousand, constituting 1.5% and 2.8% of the consolidated total comprehensive income for the years then ended, respectively.
Parent company only financial reports
We have audited and expressed an unmodified opinion with other matters paragraph on the parent company only financial statements of ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for 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 Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal controls as management determines are necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Groups ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance, including the Audit Committee, are responsible for overseeing the Groups financial reporting process.
-14-
Independent accountants responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
1. | Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. |
2. | Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Groups internal controls. |
3. | Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. |
4. | Conclude on the appropriateness of managements use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Groups ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. |
5. | Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the footnote disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. |
6. | Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Groups audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. |
-15-
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC. (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other independent accountants, as described in the Other matters section of our report, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Independent accountants responsibilities for the audit of the parent company only financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. Based on our audits and the report of other independent accountants, we believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Companys 2020 parent company only financial statements. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
-23-
Key audit matters for the Companys 2020 parent company only financial statements are stated as follows:
Measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation
Description
Please refer to Note 4(26) to the parent company only financial statements for the accounting policies on revenue recognition; Note 5 for uncertainty of accounting estimate and assumptions of revenue recognition; and Note 6(19) for details of the revenue.
The Companys revenue is primarily generated from the assembly and testing services of high-integration and high-precision integrated circuits based on customers specification, and is recognized based on measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation during the service period. The Company recognized revenue associated with assembly services, services for Liquid Crystal Display and other Flat-Panel Display Driver Semiconductors and Bumping totaling NT$18,008,651 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2020. Such revenue is recognized over a period of time, during which the Company satisfied its performance obligations to the customer. The Company used an input method (input costs incurred as a percentage of total expected input costs) to measure the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation and determine the amount of related revenue. Since the measurement of the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation is complex and subject to managements significant estimation, measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation was identified as a key audit matter.
How our audit addressed the matter
Our key audit procedures performed in respect of the above included the following:
1. | Testing the effectiveness of controls relating to accounting for revenue generated from aforementioned services, including the controls addressing the completeness and accuracy of the data utilized and the managements process to recognize and measure such revenue. |
2. | Validating the reasonableness of total expected input costs incurred on a testing basis relating to aforementioned services, and recalculating managements estimate of the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation. |
3. | Testing the reasonableness of managements key assumptions to estimate the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation (including utilizing data from recently completed services to estimate the progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation for in-progress services). |

The balance of this investment accounted for under the equity method amounted to NT$250,769 thousand and NT$249,793 thousand, constituting 0.7% and 0.7% of the total assets as at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and total net comprehensive income including the share of profit and other comprehensive income of associate accounted for under the equity method amounted to NT$37,976 thousand and NT$69,570 thousand, constituting 1.5% and 2.8% of the total comprehensive income for the years then ended, respectively.

Independent accountants responsibilities for the audit of the parent company only financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.
-25-
As part of an audit in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
1. | Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. |
2. | Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal controls. |
3. | Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. |
4. | Conclude on the appropriateness of managements use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our report to the related disclosures in the parent company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. |
5. | Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the footnote disclosures, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. |
6. | Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Companys audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. |
-26-
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding the planned scope and timing of the audit, and significant audit findings including any significant deficiencies in internal controls that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The accompanying parent company only financial statements are not intended to present the financial position and results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China. The standards, procedures and practices in the Republic of China governing the audit of such financial statements may differ from those generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China. Accordingly, the accompanying parent company only financial statements and report of independent accountants are not intended for use by those who are not informed about the accounting principles or auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, and their applications in practice.

Ms. Kuei-Ann Wen has been serving as the Companys Independent Director from the 7th Board of Directors for more than three consecutive terms. The Company has decided to re-nominate him to serve as independent director due to her rich industry and academic experience. This enables him to provide important advice for the Companys operation management and opinions on supervision of the Board of Directors. The Company considers Mr. Chin-Shyh Ou and Ms. Kuei-Ann Wen to be independent because they have no personal or business relationship with the Company beyond their board seat. The Board of Directors believes Mr. Chin-Shyh Ou and Ms. Kuei-Ann Wen continue to possess the requisite independence of judgment and action, and have not formed such associations with management (or others) as may compromise their ability to exercise impartial judgment or act without bias in the best interests of the Company. Therefore, they are once again nominated as independent director candidates of the Company in this election.
