​ The Company does not expect the cash flows included in the maturity analysis to occur significantly earlier or at significantly different amounts.
| (c) | Currency risk
i. Exposure to foreign currency risk The Company’s significant exposure to foreign currency risk was as follows:
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
(in thousands) | ​ | December 31, 2022 | ​ | December 31, 2023
​ |  | Foreign |  | Exchange |  | Functional |  | Foreign |  | Exchange |  | Functional
​ | ​ | currency | ​ | rate | ​ | currency | ​ | currency | ​ | rate | ​ | currency
Financial assets | ​ |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Monetary items | ​ |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
NTD | ​ | 333,733 |  | 30.71 |  | 10,867 |  | 281,550 |  | 30.705 |  | 9,170
CNY | ​ | 37,346 |  | 6.9669 |  | 5,360 |  | 38,528 |  | 7.0972 |  | 5,429
JPY | ​ | 1,110,308 | ​ | 132.1429 | ​ | 8,402 | ​ | 993,351 | ​ | 141.3674 | ​ | 7,027
Financial liabilities | ​ |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Monetary items | ​ |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
NTD | ​ | 2,900,734 | ​ | 30.71 | ​ | 94,456 | ​ | 1,422,137 | ​ | 30.705 | ​ | 46,315
JPY | ​ | 1,080,956 |  | 132.1429 |  | 8,180 |  | 824,224 |  | 141.3674 |  | 5,830
​ ii. Sensitivity analysis The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, accounts payable, other payable and lease liabilities that are denominated in foreign currency. Depreciation or appreciation of the USD by 10% against the New Taiwan Dollars (NTD), CNY and JPY at December 31, 2022 and 2023, while all other variables were remained constant, would have increased or (decreased) the net profit before tax of $7,801 thousand and $3,052 thousand, respectively. iii. Interest rate risk The Company’s short-term secured borrowings and long-term unsecured borrowings carried floating interest rates and fixed interest rates. The Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates is mainly from floating-rate borrowings. Any change in interest rates will cause the effective interest rates of borrowings to change and thus cause the future cash flows to fluctuate over time. The following sensitivity analysis is determined based on the exposure to interest rate risk. For floating-rate debts, the analysis assumes that the balances of outstanding debts at the end of the reporting period had been outstanding for the entire year. For the Company’s floating-rate debts, assuming all other variables were remained constant, an increase or a decrease in the interest rate by 0.25% would have resulted in a decrease or an increase in the net profit before tax for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 by $116 thousand and $101 thousand, respectively.
| (d) | Fair value information
i. Financial instruments not measured at fair value The Company considers that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost approximate their fair values. ii. Financial instruments measured at fair value (1) Fair value hierarchy ​

​ (2) Valuation techniques and assumptions used in fair value measurement The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is determined with reference to quoted market prices. The fair value of financial instruments is based on the valuation techniques. The fair value using valuation techniques refers to the current fair value of other financial instruments with similar conditions and characteristics, or using a discounted cash flow method, or other valuation techniques which include model calculating with observable market data at the reporting date. The fair value of equity securities-unlisted company is determined by reference to market valuations for similar operating entities quoted in an active market based on the net assets value of investees. The significant unobservable input is primarily the liquidity discounts, 28% for 2023. The estimated fair value would increase (decrease) if the liquidity discount rate were lower (higher). (3) Transfer between levels of the fair value hierarchy There were no transfers between levels for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023. ​ (4) Movement in financial assets included in Level 3 of fair value hierarchy ​
