Independent Auditors Report
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Wisdom Marine Lines Co., Limited (Cayman)
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Wisdom Marine Lines Co., Limited
(Cayman) and its subsidiaries ( the Group) , which comprise the consolidated statement of financial
position as at 31 December 2024, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income,
changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended 31 December 2024, and notes to the consolidated
financial statements, including the summary of material accounting policies.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2024, and their
consolidated financial performance and cash flows for the years ended 31 December 2024, in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs).
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the
Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the
Group in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the
Republic of China (the “Norm”), which includes International Ethics Standards Board for
Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International In-
dependence Standards) (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in
accordance with the IESBA Code. 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 consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed
in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our
opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
5
Revenue recognition
Hire revenues amounted to $627,027,305 for the year ended 31 December 2024, accounting for 99%
of operating revenues, which is significant to the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, we
have determined the validity of hire revenue as a key audit matter. The audit procedures we conducted
regarding the hire revenue recognition included but not limited to the following: understanding the
design and implementation of internal controls with regard to hire revenue recognition in order to
design relevant internal control audit procedures in response to the validity of hire revenue so as to
verify the effectiveness of the design and implementation of the Group's internal controls; selecting
samples from the population of hire revenues to perform tests of control and tests of details;
examining lease contracts, debit notes, bank statements and remittances to ensure whether recognition
of hire revenues are in accordance with contract terms and remitters are consistent with the
counterparty of the lease contracts, performing confirmations of lease contracts to verify existence of
lessees and validity of contract terms; analyzing variances in hire revenues and fluctuations in gross
margin and assessing the reasonable. We also evaluated the disclosure regarding revenue recognition
in Notes 4 and 6 of the consolidated financial statements.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
As at 31 December 2024, the amount of the Group’s property, plant and equipment was
$2,295,049,049, which accounted for 82% of total assets. The management assessed if there is any
indication that an asset may be impaired on balance sheet date. If there is any indication that an asset
may be impaired, the Group should evaluate the recoverable amount of the cash-generating-unit
(CGU), to which the asset belongs. The property, plant and equipment of the Group mainly consists
of vessel equipment. The subsidiaries of the Company took the one-vessel-one-company strategy to
manage vessels, and the main CGU for each subsidiary is their vessels. With the view that the amount
of property, plant and equipment being material and the calculation of recoverable amount involving
numerous assumptions and estimates, we have determined the impairment of property, plant and
equipment as a key audit matter. The audit procedures we conducted regarding the impairment of
property, plant and equipment included but not limited to the following: evaluating the
appropriateness of the accounting policy for impairment of property, plant and equipment; inspecting
the impairment evaluation report provided by the Group and assessing the reasonableness of
managements identification of indicators of impairment and the assumptions used, including
identification of CGU, estimation of cash flows and discount rate. We also evaluated the disclosure
regarding property, plant and equipment in Notes 4, 5 and 6 of the consolidated financial statements.
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 IFRSs, and for such internal control as management determines is
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
Group’s 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.
6
Those charged with governance, including audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the
Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditors’ 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 an auditors’
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 ISAs 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 ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and 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 control.
2. Obtain an understanding of internal control 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 Group’s internal control.
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 management’s 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 Group’s ability to continue as a going concern .
If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’
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 auditors’ 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 accompanying notes, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the
underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
7
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 group audit. We remain
solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, 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 auditors’ 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.

WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN)
AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
31 DECEMBER 2024 AND 2023
(In US Dollars Unless Stated Otherwise)
1. History and organization
Wisdom Marine Lines Co., Limited (Cayman) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman
Islands on 21 October 2008 as a tax-exempt company with limited liability under the Companies
Act, Cap 22 (Law 3 of 1961, as consolidated and revised) of the Cayman Islands. The Company
and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) primarily provide marine cargo transportation services, service
related to the maintenance, vessel leasing, and shipping agency and management services. On 1
December 2010, the Company was approved and listed on Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE).
The Company’s ultimate parent company: None.
2. Date and procedures of authorization of financial statements for issue
The consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the board of directors on 24
February 2025.
3. Newly issued or revised standards and interpretations
(1) The Group applied for the first time International Financial Reporting Standards, International
Accounting Standards, and Interpretations issued, revised or amended which are recognized
by Financial Supervisory Commission (“FSC”) and become effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2024. The adoption of these new standards and amendments
had no material impact on the Group.
(2) The following standards or interpretations issued by IASB are not yet effective:
A. IFRS 10“Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28“Investments in Associates and
Joint Ventures”-Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or
Joint Ventures
The amendments address the inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10
Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint
Ventures, in dealing with the loss of control of a subsidiary that is contributed to an
associate or a joint venture. IAS 28 restricts gains and losses arising from contributions of
non-monetary assets to an associate or a joint venture to the extent of the interest
attributable to the other equity holders in the associate or joint ventures. IFRS 10 requires
full profit or loss recognition on the loss of control of the subsidiary. IAS 28 was amended
so that the gain or loss resulting from the sale or contribution of assets that constitute a
business as defined in IFRS 3 between an investor and its associate or joint venture is
recognized in full.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
14
IFRS 10 was also amended so that the gains or loss resulting from the sale or contribution
of a subsidiary that does not constitute a business as defined in IFRS 3 between an investor
and its associate or joint venture is recognized only to the extent of the unrelated investors’
interests in the associate or joint venture.
B. Lack of Exchangeability – Amendments to IAS 21
These amendments specify whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency and,
when it is not, to determining the exchange rate to use and the disclosures to provide.
C. IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements”
IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. The main changes are as
below:
(a) Improved comparability in the statement of profit or loss (income statement)
IFRS 18 requires entities to classify all income and expenses within their statement of
profit or loss into one of five categories: operating; investing; financing; income taxes;
and discontinued operations. The first three categories are new, to improve the
structure of the income statement, and requires all entities to provide new defined
subtotals, including operating profit or loss. The improved structure and new subtotals
will give investors a consistent starting point for analyzing entities’ performance and
make it easier to compare entities.
(b) Enhanced transparency of management-defined performance measures
IFRS 18 requires entities to disclose explanations of those entity-specific measures
that are related to the income statement, referred to as management-defined
performance measures.
(c) Useful grouping of information in the financial statements
IFRS 18 sets out enhanced guidance on how to organize information and whether to
provide it in the primary financial statements or in the notes. The changes are expected
to provide more detailed and useful information. IFRS 18 also requires entities to
provide more transparency about operating expenses, helping investors to find and
understand the information they need.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
15
D. Disclosure Initiative – Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures (IFRS 19)
This standard permits subsidiaries without public accountability to provide reduced
disclosures when applying IFRS Accounting Standards in their financial statements. IFRS
19 is optional for subsidiaries that are eligible and sets out the disclosure requirements for
subsidiaries that elect to apply it.
E. Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7
The amendments include:
(a) Clarify that a financial liability is derecognised on the settlement date and describe
the accounting treatment for settlement of financial liabilities using an electronic
payment system before the settlement date.
(b) Clarify how to assess the contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets that
include environmental, social and governance (ESG)-linked features and other
similar contingent features.
(c) Clarify the treatment of non-recourse assets and contractually linked instruments.
(d) Require additional disclosures in IFRS 7 for financial assets and liabilities with
contractual terms that reference a contingent event (including those that are ESG-
linked), and equity instruments classified at fair value through other comprehensive
income.
F. Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards – Volume 11
(a) Amendments to IFRS 1
The amendments mainly improve the consistency in wording between first-time
adoption of IFRS and requirements for hedge accounting in IFRS 9.
(b) Amendments to IFRS 7
The amendments update an obsolete cross-reference relating to gain or loss on
derecognition.
(c) Amendments to Guidance on implementing IFRS 7
The amendments improve some of the wordings in the implementation guidance,
including the introduction, disclosure of deferred difference between fair value and
transaction price and credit risk disclosures.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
16
(d) Amendments to IFRS 9
The amendments add a cross-reference to resolve potential confusion for a lessee
applying the derecognition requirements and clarify the term “transaction price”.
(e) Amendments to IFRS 10
The amendments remove the inconsistency between paragraphs B73 and B74 of
IFRS 10.
(f) Amendments to IAS 7
The amendments remove a reference to “cost method” in paragraph 37 of IAS 7.
G. Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity – Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS
7
The amendments include:
(a) Clarify the application of the ‘own-use’ requirements.
(b) Permit hedge accounting if these contracts are used as hedging instruments.
(c) Add new disclosure requirements to enable investors to understand the effect of these
contracts on a company’s financial performance and cash flows.
The abovementioned standards and interpretations issued by IASB are not yet effective at the
date when the Group’s financial statements were authorized for issue. As the Group is still
currently determining the potential impact of the new or amended standards and
interpretations listed under A, B, C, D, F and G. it is not practicable to estimate their impact
on the Group at this point in time.
4. Summary of material accounting policies
(1) Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements of the Group for the years ended 31 December 2024
and 2023 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRSs) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
(2) Basis of preparation
A. Basis of measurement
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention, except for those financial instruments that are measured at fair value with
changes therein shown in the consolidated financial statements.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
17
B. Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each Group entities is determined based on the primary
economic environment in which the entities operate. The Group’s consolidated financial
statements are presented in US Dollar, which is the Company’s functional currency and
presentation currency.
(3) Basis of consolidation
A. Preparation principle of consolidated financial statements
Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its
involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power
over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
(a) power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct
the relevant activities of the investee)
(b) exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
(c) the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the
Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over
an investee, including:
(a) the contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
(b) rights arising from other contractual arrangements
(c) the Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances
indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the acquisition date, being the date on which the
Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control
ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting
period as the parent company, using uniform accounting policies. All intra-group balances,
income and expenses, unrealized gains and losses and dividends resulting from intra-group
transactions are eliminated in full.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
18
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a change of control, is accounted
for as an equity transaction.
Total comprehensive income of the subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the parent
and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests
having a deficit balance.
If the Group loses control of a subsidiary, it:
(a) derecognizes the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary;
(b) derecognizes the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest;
(c) recognizes the fair value of the consideration received;
(d) recognizes the fair value of any investment retained;
(e) reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognized in other
comprehensive income to profit or loss, or transfer directly to retained earnings if
required by other IFRSs; and
(f) recognizes any resulting difference in profit or loss.

(4) Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group entities at their
respective functional currency rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency
closing rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Non-monetary items measured at fair
value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair
value is determined. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign
currency are translated using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions.
All exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating
monetary items are taken to profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for the
following:
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
24
A. Exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings for an acquisition of a
qualifying asset to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs are
included in the borrowing costs that are eligible for capitalization.
B. Foreign currency items within the scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments are accounted
for based on the accounting policy for financial instruments.
C. Exchange differences arising on a monetary item that forms part of a reporting entity’s net
investment in a foreign operation is recognized initially in other comprehensive income
and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on disposal of the net investment.
When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized in other comprehensive income,
any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income.
When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized in profit or loss, any exchange
component of that gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss.
(5) Translation of financial statements in foreign currency
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at the closing rate of exchange
prevailing at the reporting date and their income and expenses are translated at an average rate
for the period. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognized in other
comprehensive income. On the disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the
exchange differences relating to that foreign operation, recognized in other comprehensive
income and accumulated in the separate component of equity, is reclassified from equity to
profit or loss when the gain or loss on disposal is recognized.
The following partial disposals are accounted for as disposals:
A. when the partial disposal involves the loss of control of a subsidiary that includes a foreign
operation; and
B. when the retained interest after the partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or
a partial disposal of an interest in an associate that includes a foreign operation is a financial
asset that includes a foreign operation.
On the partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation that does not result in
a loss of control, the proportionate share of the cumulative amount of the exchange differences
recognized in other comprehensive income is re-attributed to the non-controlling interests in
that foreign operation. In partial disposal of an associate or jointly controlled entity that
includes a foreign operation that does not result in a loss of significant influence or joint
control, only the proportionate share of the cumulative amount of the exchange differences
recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
25
Any goodwill and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the
foreign operation and expressed in its functional currency.
(6) Current and non-current distinction
An asset is classified as current when:
A. The Group expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal
operating cycle
B. The Group holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading
C. The Group expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting period
D. The asset is cash or cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or
used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when:
A. The Group expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle
B. The Group holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading
C. The liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period
D. The Group does not have the right at the end of the reporting period to defer settlement of
the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
(7) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term, highly
liquid time deposits or investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and
which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Time deposits which mature over three months are held for the purpose of meeting short-term
cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes. They are readily convertible
to known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, therefore
they are reported as cash and cash equivalents.
(8) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Group becomes a party to
the contractual provisions of the instrument.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
26
Financial assets and financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments”
are recognized initially at fair value plus or minus, in the case of investments not at fair value
through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.
A. Financial instruments: recognition and measurement
The Group accounts for regular way purchase or sales of financial assets on the trade date.
The Group classified financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair
value through other comprehensive income on the basis of both:
(a) the Group’s business model for managing the financial assets and
(b) the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
Financial assets measured at amortized cost
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met
and presented as note receivables, trade receivables financial assets measured at amortized
cost and other receivables etc., on balance sheet as at the reporting date:
(a) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial
assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and
(b) the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows
that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost (the amount at which
the financial asset is measured at initial recognition minus the principal repayments, plus
or minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of any difference
between the initial amount and the maturity amount and adjusted for any loss allowance)
and is not part of a hedging relationship. A gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss when
the financial asset is derecognized, through the amortization process or in order to
recognize the impairment gains or losses.
Interest revenue is calculated by using the effective interest method. This is calculated by
applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except
for:
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
27
(a) purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets, the
Group applies the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the
financial asset from initial recognition.
(b) financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets but
subsequently have become credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial assets,
the Group applies the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset
in subsequent reporting periods.
Financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of
the following conditions are met:
(a) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both
collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and
(b) the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows
that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Recognition of gain or loss on a financial asset measured at fair value through other
comprehensive income is described as below:
(a) A gain or loss on a financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive
income recognized in other comprehensive income, except for impairment gains or
losses and foreign exchange gains and losses, until the financial asset is derecognized or
reclassified.
(b) When the financial asset is derecognized the cumulative gain or loss previously
recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss
as a reclassification adjustment.
(c) Interest revenue is calculated by using the effective interest method. This is calculated
by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset
except for:
i. Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. For those financial
assets, the Group applies the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized
cost of the financial asset from initial recognition.
ii. Financial assets that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired financial
assets but subsequently have become credit-impaired financial assets. For those
financial assets, the Group applies the effective interest rate to the amortized cost
of the financial asset in subsequent reporting periods.

Besides, for certain equity investments within the scope of IFRS 9 that is neither held for
trading nor contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination
to which IFRS 3 applies, the Group made an irrevocable election to present the changes of
the fair value in other comprehensive income at initial recognition. Amounts presented in
other comprehensive income shall not be subsequently transferred to profit or loss (when
disposal of such equity instrument, its cumulated amount included in other components of
equity is transferred directly to the retained earnings) and these investments should be
presented as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
on the balance sheet. Dividends on such investment are recognized in profit or loss unless
the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of investment.
Financial asset measured at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets were classified as measured at amortized cost or measured at fair value
through other comprehensive income based on aforementioned criteria. All other financial
assets were measured at fair value through profit or loss and presented on the balance sheet
as financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss.
Such financial assets are measured at fair value, the gains or losses resulting from
remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss which includes any dividend or interest
received on such financial assets.
B. Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on debt instrument
investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial asset
measured at amortized cost. The loss allowance on debt instrument investments measured
at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognized in other comprehensive
income and not reduce the carrying amount in the statement of financial position.
The Group measures expected credit losses of a financial instrument in a way that reflects:
(a) an unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range
of possible outcomes;
(b) the time value of money; and
(c) reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort
at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future
economic conditions.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
29
The loss allowance is measures as follow:
(a) At an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses: the credit risk on a financial
asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition or the financial asset is
determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date. In addition, the Group
measures the loss allowance for a financial asset at an amount equal to lifetime
expected credit losses in the previous reporting period, but determines at the current
reporting date that condition is no longer met.
(b) At an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses: the credit risk on a financial
asset has increased significantly since initial recognition or financial asset that is
purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset.
(c) For trade receivables or contract assets arising from transactions within the scope of
IFRS 15, the Group measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime
expected credit losses.
At each reporting date, the Group needs to assess whether the credit risk on a financial
asset has been increased significantly since initial recognition by comparing the risk of a
default occurring at the reporting date and the risk of default occurring at initial recognition.
Please refer to Note 12 for further details on credit risk.
C. Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognized when:
(a) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired
(b) The Group has transferred the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of the
asset have been transferred
(c) The Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards
of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying
amount and the consideration received or receivable including any cumulative gain or loss
that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss.
D. Financial liabilities and equity
Classification between liabilities or equity
The Group classifies the instrument issued as a financial liability or an equity instrument
in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a
financial liability, and an equity instrument.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
30
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an
entity after deducting all of its liabilities. The transaction costs of an equity transaction are
accounted for as a deduction from equity (net of any related income tax benefit) to the
extent they are incremental costs directly attributable to the equity transaction that
otherwise would have been avoided.
Compound instruments
The Group evaluates the terms of the convertible bonds issued to determine whether it
contains both a liability and an equity component. Furthermore, the Group assesses if the
economic characteristics and risks of the put and call options contained in the convertible
bonds are closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host contract before
separating the equity element.
For the liability component excluding the derivatives, its fair value is determined based on
the rate of interest applied at that time by the market to instruments of comparable credit
status. The liability component is classified as a financial liability measured at amortized
cost before the instrument is converted or settled.
For the embedded derivative that is not closely related to the host contract (for example, if
the exercise price of the embedded call or put option is not approximately equal on each
exercise date to the amortized cost of the host debt instrument), it is classified as a liability
component and subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it qualifies
for an equity component. The equity component is assigned the residual amount after
deducting from the fair value of the instrument as a whole the amount separately
determined for the liability component. Its carrying amount is not re-measured in the
subsequent accounting periods. If the convertible bond issued does not have an equity
component, it is accounted for as a hybrid instrument in accordance with the requirements
under IFRS 9 Financial Instruments”.
Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the
convertible bond based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components
when the instruments are initially recognized.
On conversion of a convertible bond before maturity, the carrying amount of the liability
component being the amortized cost at the date of conversion is transferred to equity.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
31
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments” are classified as
financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities measured at
amortized cost upon initial recognition.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for
trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through
profit or loss. A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:
(a) it is acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing it in the
near term;
(b) on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are
managed together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-
term profit-taking; or
(c) it is a derivative (except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a
designated and effective hedging instrument).
If a contract contains one or more embedded derivatives, the entire hybrid (combined)
contract may be designated as a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss; or a
financial liability may be designated as at fair value through profit or loss when doing so
results in more relevant information, because either:
(a) it eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency; or
(b) a group of financial assets, financial liabilities or both is managed and its performance
is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management
or investment strategy, and information about the group is provided internally on that
basis to the key management personnel.
Gains or losses on the subsequent measurement of liabilities at fair value through profit or
losses including interest paid are recognized in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities at amortized cost
Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost include interest bearing loans and
borrowings that are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate method after
initial recognition. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are
derecognized as well as through the effective interest rate method amortization process.
Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition
and fees or transaction costs.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
32
Derecognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or
cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on
substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified
(whether or not attributable to the financial difficulty of the debtor), such an exchange or
modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a
new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts and the consideration
paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit
or loss.
E. Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the
balance sheet if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the
recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets
and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
(9) Derivative instrument
The Group uses derivative instruments to hedge its foreign currency risks. A derivative is
classified in the balance sheet as financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or
loss (held for trading) except for derivatives that are designated effective hedging instruments
which are classified as derivative financial assets or liabilities for hedging.
Derivative instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative
contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried
as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value
is negative. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken
directly to profit or loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is
recognized in equity.
When the host contracts are either non-financial assets or liabilities, derivatives embedded in
host contracts are accounted for as separate derivatives and recorded at fair value if their
economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the
host contracts are not designated at fair value though profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)

(10) Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in
an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value
measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the
liability takes place either:
A. In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
B. In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or
liability
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to by the Group.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market
participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants
in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s
ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling
it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which
sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable
inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
(11) Inventories
Inventories are bunker oil and are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost
of fuel is determined using the weighted-average cost method. Net realizable value is the
determined based on the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the
estimated selling expenses at the end of the period.
(12) Investments accounted for using the equity method
The Group’s investment in its associate is accounted for using the equity method other than
those that meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale. An associate is an entity over which
the Group has significant influence. A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby
the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint
venture.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
34
Under the equity method, the investment in the associate or an investment in a joint venture is
carried in the balance sheet at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition change in the
Group’s share of net assets of the associate or joint venture. After the interest in the associate or
joint venture is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized,
only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments
on behalf of the associate or joint venture. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from
transactions between the Group and the associate or joint venture are eliminated to the extent of
the Group’s related interest in the associate or joint venture.
When changes in the net assets of an associate or a joint venture occur and not those that are
recognized in profit or loss or other comprehensive income and do not affects the Group’s
percentage of ownership interests in the associate or joint venture, the Group recognizes such
changes in equity based on its percentage of ownership interests. The resulting capital surplus
recognized will be reclassified to profit or loss at the time of disposing the associate or joint
venture on a prorata basis.
When the associate or joint venture issues new stock, and the Group’s interest in an associate
or a joint venture is reduced or increased as the Group fails to acquire shares newly issued in
the associate or joint venture proportionately to its original ownership interest, the increase or
decrease in the interest in the associate or joint venture is recognized in Additional Paid in
Capital and Investment accounted for using the equity method. When the interest in the
associate or joint venture is reduced, the cumulative amounts previously recognized in other
comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss or other appropriate items. The
aforementioned capital surplus recognized is reclassified to profit or loss on a pro rata basis
when the Group disposes the associate or joint venture.
The financial statements of the associate or joint venture are prepared for the same reporting
period as the Group. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies
in line with those of the Group.
The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the
investment in the associate or an investment in a joint venture is impaired in accordance with
IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. If this is the case the Group calculates
the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate
or joint venture and its carrying value and recognizes the amount in the ‘share of profit or loss
of an associate’ in the statement of comprehensive income in accordance with IAS 36
Impairment of Assets. In determining the value in use of the investment, the Group estimates:
A. Its share of the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to be generated
by the associate or joint venture, including the cash flows from the operations of the
associate and the proceeds on the ultimate disposal of the investment; or
B. The present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from dividends to be
received from the investment and from its ultimate disposal.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
35
Because goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate or
an investment in a joint venture is not separately recognized, it is not tested for impairment
separately by applying the requirements for impairment testing goodwill in IAS 36
Impairment of Assets.
Upon loss of significant influence over the associate or joint venture, the Group measures and
recognizes any retaining investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying
amount of the associate or joint venture upon loss of significant influence and the fair value
of the retaining investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in profit or loss.
Furthermore, if an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an
investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the entity continues to
apply the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest.
(13) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes the cost of dismantling and
removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located and borrowing costs for
construction in progress if the recognition criteria are met. Each part of an item of property,
plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is
depreciated separately. When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required
to be replaced in intervals, the Group recognized such parts as individual assets with specific
useful lives and depreciation, respectively. The carrying amount of those parts that are
replaced is derecognized in accordance with the derecognition provisions of IAS 16
“Property, Plant and Equipment”. When a major inspection is performed, its cost is
recognized in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if the
recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in
profit or loss as incurred.
All major components of the vessels are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the useful
life of the assets. Depreciation is based on cost less the estimated residual value. The residual
value is estimated as the lightweight tonnage of each vessel multiplied by scrap value per ton.
The dry-docking cost, including acquisition of a new vessel, is separated from the remaining
cost of the vessel. These two cost elements are recognized and depreciated separately. For the
building of new vessels, the initial dry-docking cost is also segregated and capitalized
separately.
The Group has a long-term plan for dry-docking of the vessels. Dry-docking cost is capitalized
and depreciated until the next planned dry-docking. Other capitalized improvements are
depreciated over the estimated economic life.

The carrying values of vessels and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Valuations
are performed frequently to ensure that the fair value of a revalued asset does not differ
materially from its carrying amount. The residual values, useful lives, and depreciation
methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period, except
for those cases which are of little consequence.
A vessel or item of equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic
benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition of
an asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset) is included in the consolidated income statement in the year the asset is
derecognized.
Expenditures on the building of new vessels are capitalized as vessels under construction as
they are paid. Capitalized value is reclassified from vessel under construction to vessels upon
delivery from the dock. The total acquisition cost of a vessel is determined based on the sum
of installments paid plus the costs incurred during the construction period. Borrowing costs
that are attributable to the construction of the vessels are capitalized as part of the vessel. The
interest rate is based on the weighted-average borrowing costs for the Group, limited to the
total borrowing costs incurred in the period.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic lives of the
following assets:

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment
are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

(14) Investment property
The Group’s owned investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction
costs. The carrying amount includes the cost of replacing part of an existing investment
property at the time that cost is incurred if the recognition criteria are met and excludes the
costs of day-to-day servicing of an investment property. Subsequent to initial recognition,
other than those that meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale (or are included in a
disposal group that is classified as held for sale) in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets
Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, investment properties are measured using the cost
model in accordance with the requirements of IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment for that
model. If investment properties are held by a lessee as right-of-use assets and are not held for
sale in accordance with IFRS 5, investment properties are measured in accordance with the
requirements of IFRS 16.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic lives of the
following assets:
Buildings 28 years
Investment properties are derecognized when either they have been disposed of or when the
investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is
expected from its disposal.
The Group transfers properties to or from investment properties according to the actual use of
the properties.
The Group transfers properties to or from investment properties when there is a change in use
for these assets. Properties are transferred to or from investment properties when the properties
meet, or cease to meet, the definition of investment property and there is evidence of the change
in use.
(15) Leases
The Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a
lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time
in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use
of an identified asset for a period of time, the Group assesses whether, throughout the period of
use, has both of the following:
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
38
A. the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified
asset; and
B. the right to direct the use of the identified asset.
For a contract that is, or contains, a lease, the Group accounts for each lease component within
the contract as a lease separately from non-lease components of the contract. For a contract
that contains a lease component and one or more additional lease or non-lease components,
the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of
the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of
the non-lease components. The relative stand-alone price of lease and non-lease components
shall be determined on the basis of the price the lessor, or a similar supplier, would charge the
Group for that component, or a similar component, separately. If an observable stand-alone
price is not readily available, the Group estimates the stand-alone price, maximising the use
of observable information.
Group as a lessee
Except for leases that meet and elect short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Group
recognizes right-of-use asset and lease liability for all leases which the Group is the lessee of
those lease contracts.
At the commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the
lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments discount using the interest
rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily
determined, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate. At the commencement date, the
lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following
payments for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term that are not paid at the
commencement date:
A. fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives
receivable;
B. variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the
index or rate as at the commencement date;
C. amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;
D. the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that
option; and
E. payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee
exercising an option to terminate the lease.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
39
After the commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability on an amortised cost
basis, which is increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability by using
an effective interest method; and reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments
made.
At the commencement date, the Group measures the right-of-use asset at cost. The cost of the
right-of-use asset comprises:
A. the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability;
B. any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives
received;
C. any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and
D. an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the
underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset
to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.
For subsequent measurement of the right-of-use asset, the Group measures the right-of-use
asset at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. That
is, the Group measures the right-of-use applying a cost model.
If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease
term or if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase
option, the Group depreciates the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the end
of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the Group depreciates the right-of-use
asset from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-
use asset or the end of the lease term.
The Group applies IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets” to determine whether the right-of-use asset
is impaired and to account for any impairment loss identified.
Except for leases that meet and elect short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Group
presents right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the balance sheet and presents interest
expense separately from the depreciation charge associate with those leases in the
consolidated income statement.
For short-term leases or leases of low-value assets, the Group elects to recognize the lease
payments associated with those leases as an expense on either a straight-line basis over the
lease term or another systematic basis.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)

Group as a lessor
At inception of a contract, the Group classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease
or a finance lease. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the
risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. A lease is classified as an
operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to
ownership of an underlying asset. At the commencement date, the Group recognizes assets
held under a finance lease in its balance sheet and present them as a receivable at an amount
equal to the net investment in the lease.
For a contract that contains lease components and non-lease components, the Group allocates
the consideration in the contract applying IFRS 15.
The Group recognizes lease payments from operating leases as rental income on either a
straight-line basis or another systematic basis. Variable lease payments for operating leases
that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as rental income when incurred.
(16) Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of
intangible assets acquired in a business combination is its fair value as at the date of
acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any
accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated
intangible assets, excluding capitalized development costs, are not capitalized and expenditure
is reflected in profit or loss for the year in which the expenditure is incurred.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for
impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The
amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful
life is reviewed at least at the end of each financial year. Changes in the expected useful life
or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is
accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated
as changes in accounting estimates.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
41
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but are tested for impairment
annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. The assessment of indefinite
life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life continues to be supportable.
If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the
difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are
recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.
(17) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that an
asset in the scope of IAS 36“Impairment of Assets” may be impaired. If any such indication
exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the
asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-
generating unit’s (“CGU”) fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined
for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely
independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an
asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written
down to its recoverable amount.
For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether
there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or
may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or cash-
generating unit’s recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed
only if there has been an increase in the estimated service potential of an asset which in turn
increases the recoverable amount. However, the reversal is limited so that the carrying amount
of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that
would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for
the asset in prior years.
An impairment loss of continuing operations or a reversal of such impairment loss is
recognized in profit or loss.
(18) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as
a result of a past event, it is probably that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the
amount of the obligation. Where the Group expects some or all of a provision to be
reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the
reimbursement is virtually certain. If the effect of the time value of money is material,
provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the
liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is
recognized as a finance cost.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
42
The liability to pay a levy is recognised progressively if the obligating event occurs over a
period of time.
(19) Revenue recognition
Hire revenue
Hire revenue is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the
Group and when the revenue can be measured reliably. The revenue is measured at the fair
value of consideration that the Group has received or had the right to receive. The revenue is
recognized on a time proportion basis over the lease term.
Freight revenue and vessel management revenue
The Group’s revenue arising from contracts with customers are rendering of services,
including shipping services and vessel management services. Such services are separately
priced or negotiated, and provided based on contract periods. As the Group provides the
services over the contract period, so that the customers simultaneously receive and consume
the benefits provided by the Group. Accordingly, the performance obligations are satisfied
over time, and the related revenue are recognized by reference to the stage of completion over
the period.
Most of the contractual considerations of the Group are received on average during the
contract period after the provision of services. When the Group has performed the services to
customers but does not has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, these
contacts should be presented as contract assets. However, for some rendering of services
contracts, part of the consideration was received from customers upon signing the contract,
and the Group has the obligation to provide the services subsequently; accordingly, these
amounts are recognized as contract liabilities.
The period between the transfers of contract liabilities to revenue is usually within one year,
thus, no significant financing component arises.
(20) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset
that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are
capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are expensed
in the period they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity
incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES

(21) Post-employment benefits
A. Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays
fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation
to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans
are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss during which services are
rendered by employees.
B. Defined benefit plans
Post-employment benefit plan that is classified as a defined benefit plan uses the Projected
Unit Credit Method to measure its obligations and costs based on actuarial assumptions.
Re-measurements, comprising of the effect of the actuarial gains and losses, the effect of
the asset ceiling (excluding net interest) and the return on plan assets, excluding net interest,
are recognized as other comprehensive income with a corresponding debit or credit to
retained earnings in the period in which they occur.
Past service costs are recognized in profit or loss on the earlier of:
(a) the date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and
(b) the date that the Group recognizes restructuring-related costs
Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or
asset, both as determined at the start of the annual reporting period, taking account of any
changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset) during the period as a result of
contribution and benefit payment.
The Group will remeasure the net defined benefit liability (asset) and determine current
service costs and net interest for the remaining reporting period by renewed actuarial
assumptions since the post-employment benefit plan ofthe defined benefit plan be
amended, curtailed or settled.
C. Short-term benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are
expensed as related service is provided
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
44
A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or
profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this
amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be
estimated reliably.
(22) Income taxes
Income tax expense (income) is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit
or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.
Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the
amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities, using the tax rates
and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Current income tax relating to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity is recognized in other comprehensive income or equity and not in profit or loss.
The income tax for undistributed earnings is recognized as income tax expense in the
subsequent year when the distribution proposal is approved by the Shareholders’ meeting.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases
of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except:
A. Where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset
or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination; at the time of the transaction,
affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and at the time of the
transaction, does not give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences.
B. In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries,
associates and interests in joint arrangements, where the timing of the reversal of the
temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences
will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
45
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of
unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit
will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of
unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized, except:
A. Where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from
the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business
combination; at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable
profit or loss; and at the time of the transaction, does not give rise to equal taxable and
deductible temporary differences.
B. In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries,
associates and interests in joint arrangements, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the
extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future
and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in
the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws
that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The measurement of
deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow
from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or
settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or
loss. Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in
other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax assets are reassessed at each
reporting date and are recognized accordingly.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists
to set off current income tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes
relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
According to the temporary exception in the International Tax Reform Pillar Two Model
Rules (Amendments to IAS 12), deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income
tax will not be recognized nor disclosed.

5. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements require management to make
judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses,
assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period.
However, uncertainty about these assumption and estimate could result in outcomes that require a
material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods. Please
find the details as below:
(1) Judgement
In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the
following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in
the consolidated financial statements:
A. Investment properties
Certain properties of the Group comprise a portion that is held to earn rentals or for capital
appreciation and another portion that is owner-occupied. If these portions could be sold
separately, the Group accounts for the portions separately as investment properties and
property, plant and equipment. If the portions could not be sold separately, the property is
classified as investment property in its entirety only if the portion that is owner-occupied
is under 1% of the total property.
(2) Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at
the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
A. Fair value of financial instruments
Where the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance
sheet cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using valuation
techniques including the income approach (for example the discounted cash flows model)
or market approach. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported
fair value of the financial instruments. Please refer to Note 12 for more details.
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
47
B. Impairment of non-financial assets
An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds
its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value
in use. The fair value less costs to sell calculation is based on the price that would be
received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date less incremental costs that would be directly
attributable to the disposal of the asset or cash generating unit. The value in use calculation
is based on a discounted cash flow model. The cash flows projections are derived from the
budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities that the Group is
not yet committed to or significant future investments that will enhance the asset’s
performance of the cash generating unit being tested. The recoverable amount is most
sensitive to the discount rate used for the discounted cash flow model as well as the
expected future cash-inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes.
C. Useful lives and depreciation of vessels
Management determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation charges for its
vessels. This estimate is based on the historical experience of the actual useful lives of
vessels of similar nature and functions. It could change significantly as a result of technical
innovations and competitor actions in response to severe industry activities. Management
will increase the depreciation charge where useful lives are less than previously estimated
lives, or it will write down technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been
abandoned or sold. Management assesses the scrap value according to the characteristics
of the Group’s vessels and the market research from Clarkson and Demolition Market.
The Group determines the depreciation amount of vessels based on the estimated useful
lives and residual values, which are reviewed at each reporting date. The principal
assumptions for the Group’s estimation of the useful lives and residual values include those
related to the mode of operations, government regulations, and scrap value of vessels in
future.
D. Provision for losses from accidents
Provision for losses from accidents is made based on an assessment of the outcome of
negotiations, arbitration or litigation, and the recoverability of losses from insurance
companies, which requires management’s judgment and estimates. Where the actual
outcome or expectation in the future differs from the original estimate, such differences
will have an impact on the carrying amount of the provisions and losses incurred in
accidents/write-back in the period in which such estimate is changed.

E. Fair value of investment property
Where the fair value of investment property disclosed in Note 6 and Note 12 cannot be
obtained from the active market, it is determined using valuation techniques including the
sales comparison approach and the income approach. Changes in assumptions adopted in
the valuation methods could affect the disclosed fair value of investment property and the
result of impairment testing. Please refer to Note 6 and Note 12 for more details.

(2) Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s principal financial risk management objective is to manage the market risk, credit
risk and liquidity risk related to its operating activities. The Group identifies measures and
manages the aforementioned risks based on the Group’s policy and risk appetite.
The Group has established appropriate policies, procedures and internal controls for financial
risk management. Before entering into significant transactions, due approval process by the
Group’s board of directors and audit committee must be carried out based on related protocols
and internal control procedures. The Group complies with its financial risk management
policies at all times.
(3) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of the changes in market prices. Market prices comprise currency risk,
interest rate risk and other price risk (such as equity risk).
In practice, it is rarely the case that a single risk variable will change independently from other
risk variables; there are usually interdependencies between risk variables. However the
sensitivity analysis disclosed below does not take into account the interdependencies between
risk variables.
Foreign currency risk
The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are
denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Group entities,
primarily USD and Japanese Yen.
The foreign currency sensitivity analysis of the possible change in foreign exchange rates on
the Group’s profit is performed on significant monetary items denominated in foreign
currencies as at the end of the reporting period. The Group’s foreign currency risk is mainly
related to the volatility in the exchange rates for foreign currency Yen. The information of the
sensitivity analysis is as follows:
When USD strengthens/weakens against foreign currency Yen by 10%, the profit for the years
ended 31 December 2024 and 2023 increases/decreases by $2,521,634 and $4,915,930,
respectively; the equity increases/decreases by $0 and $0, respectively.

Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is managed by the Group on an ongoing basis with the primary objective of
limiting the extent to which net interest expense could be affected by an adverse movement in
interest rates. The Group’s has no financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
bearing fixed interest payable. The Group does not use financial derivatives to hedge against
interest rate risk.
The interest rate sensitivity analysis is performed on items exposed to interest rate risk as at
the end of the reporting period, including investments and borrowings with variable interest
rates. At the reporting date, a change of 0.25% of interest rate in a reporting period could cause
the profit for the years ended 31 December 2024 and 2023 to decrease/increase by $2,768,166
and $3,245,783, respectively; the equity decrease /increase by $0 and $0, respectively.
(4) Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk that a counter party will not meet its obligations under a contract, leading
to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from operating activities (primarily for
accounts receivables) and from its financing activities, including bank deposits and other
financial instruments.
Credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Group’s established policy,
procedures and control relating to credit risk management. Credit limits are established for all
counter parties based on their financial position, rating from credit rating agencies, historical
experience, prevailing economic condition and the Group’s internal rating criteria etc. Certain
counter parties’ credit risk will also be managed by taking credit enhancing procedures, such
as requesting for prepayment or insurance.
As at 31 December 2024 and 2023, the accounts receivable amounted to $5,225,392 and
$5,086,191, constituting 0.19% and 0.18% of the consolidated total assets, respectively. The
credit concentration risk of accounts receivable is insignificant.
Credit risk from balances with banks, fixed income securities and other financial instruments
is managed by the Group’s treasury in accordance with the Group’s policy. The Group only
transacts with counterparties approved by the internal control procedures, which are banks
and financial institutions, companies and government entities with good credit rating.
Consequently, there is no significant credit risk for these counter parties.

(5) Liquidity risk management
The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility
through the use of cash and cash equivalents, highly liquid equity investments, bank
borrowings, bonds and finance leases. The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the
Group’s financial liabilities based on the contractual undiscounted payments and contractual
maturity. The payment amount includes the contractual interest. The undiscounted payment
relating to borrowings with variable interest rates is extrapolated based on the estimated
interest rate yield curve as of the end of the reporting period.

(7) Fair values of financial instruments
A. The methods and assumptions applied in determining the fair value of financial
instruments:
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability
in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The
following methods and assumptions were used by the Group to measure or disclose the fair
values of financial assets and financial liabilities:
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
89
(a) The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts
payable and other current liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short
maturities.
(b) Fair value of debt instruments without market quotations, bank loans, bonds payable
and other non-current liabilities are determined based on the counterparty prices or
valuation method. The valuation method uses DCF method as a basis, and the
assumptions such as the interest rate and discount rate are primarily based on relevant
information of similar instrument (such as yield curves published by the GreTai
Securities Market, average prices for fixed rate commercial paper published by Reuters
and credit risk, etc.)
(c) The fair value of derivatives which are not options and without market quotations, is
determined based on the counterparty prices or discounted cash flow analysis using
interest rate yield curve for the contract period. Fair value of option-based derivative
financial instruments is obtained using the counterparty prices or appropriate option
pricing model (for example, Binomial Tree model) or other valuation method (for
example, Monte Carlo Simulation).
B. Fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost
The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized
cost approximate their fair value, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
account payable and other current liabilities.
C. Fair value measurement hierarchy for financial instruments
Please refer to Note 12.(8) for fair value measurement hierarchy for financial instruments
of the Group.
(8) Fair value measurement hierarchy
A. Fair value measurement hierarchy
All asset and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial
statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, based on the lowest level input
that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole. Level 1, 2 and 3 inputs are
described as follows:
WISDOM MARINE LINES CO., LIMITED (CAYMAN) AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)
90
Level 1– Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for
the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis,
the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the hierarchy by
re-assessing categorization at the end of each reporting period.
B. Fair value measurement hierarchy of the Group’s assets and liabilities
The Group does not have assets that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.
Fair value measurement hierarchy of the Group’s assets and liabilities measured at fair
value on a recurring basis is as follows:
