Message from the Chairman
2025 marks a year of ongoing restructuring in the global industrial order and the accelerated advancement of energy transition. In an environment characterized by such volatility and competition, we have not chosen a conservative path; instead, we continue to push for transformation and upgrading with a proactive stance, moving resolutely toward a corporate future that integrates low-carbon, intelligent, and sustainable development. Over the past year, we have not only consolidated our established market position but also achieved concrete breakthroughs in sustainable governance and operational efficiency, further strengthening the Company's long-term competitiveness.
Market and Professional Recognition
In terms of market and professional evaluations, we have been honored as one of the Taiwan FINI 100 Companies and achieved an “A” rating in the Taiwan Sustainability Ratings. At the same time, in the CommonWealth Magazine's Top 50 Benchmark Entrepreneurs, we were honored with second place in the electromechanical equipment and precision instrument industry. This not only represents external recognition of our operational results, but also reflects the continuous improvement of the Company's technical strength, governance quality, and industry influence.
Sustainable Transformation
To advance our sustainable transformation, we have further accelerated our carbon reduction efforts and the optimization of our energy structure. Complete the deployment of 1.216 MW in renewable energy capacity in 2025, with annual power generation reaching 1,381,178 kWh, to gradually increase the proportion of self-generated green power and strengthen energy autonomy. Meanwhile, through comprehensive process improvements and deepened energy management, energy intensity decreased by 30.40% compared to 2024, while greenhouse gas emission intensity was also reduced by 31.28%. These achievements are not a single improvement, but a concrete manifestation of systemic transformation, representing that we are reshaping our business model in a more efficient and low-carbon manner.
Governance and Risk Management
Regarding governance and risk management, we have continued to strengthen our corporate resilience and institutional foundations. It is worth highlighting that our subsidiary, Kaori Heat Energy Technology Co., Ltd., officially obtained ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System third-party certification within just its first year of operation. This achievement demonstrates that we have aligned our systems with international standards in a remarkably short timeframe, fully integrating occupational health and safety management into a systematic framework. We continue to advance this initiative with zero occupational accidents as our clear, long-term management objective. Simultaneously, the subsidiary earned ISO 27001 Information Security Management System certification, further strengthening its information security defenses and digital operational resilience. These milestones have established a verifiable, scalable governance foundation that meets international standards, ensuring steady and continuous operations within a highly digitized and competitive global environment. Looking ahead, we face not only market competition but an era defined by the comprehensive reshaping of energy structures, technological innovation, and sustainability standards. We will continue to accelerate the development and application of low-carbon technologies and high-efficiency solutions, expand our renewable energy footprint, and deepen our digital and smart manufacturing capabilities, ensuring that sustainability is not merely a responsibility, but the core engine driving corporate growth. Our goal is not merely to keep pace with change, but to set the standard amidst it; we do not simply respond to trends, we define the future. Facing the challenges of the next stage, we will drive the company forward with firmer determination, more systematic strategies, and a longer-term vision, working with all stakeholders to create a future that is more resilient, competitive, and defined by sustainable value.
