Climate Change Management

Against the backdrop of increasing global climate change risks, the Company is well aware of the significant challenges that climate change may pose to its operations. These challenges could affect our supply chain, equipment operation, and employee safety, and may also pose a risk to overall operational stability. Therefore, we will continue to identify, assess, and manage these risks to reduce their potential impact on the Company’s operations and ensure sustainable development. To address these risks, we have begun to strengthen our climate change adaptation measures and are actively referencing the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial DisclosuresTCFDframework, with four core elements covered: “Governance”, “Strategy”, “Risk Management”, and “Metrics and Targets”. Through these guiding principles, we comprehensively identify the risks and opportunities that may impact our operations and take concrete actions to manage them appropriately, thereby fulfilling our commitment to sustainable operations.
 

Governance Unit


ANPEC has established a “Sustainable Development Best Practice Principles”, and formed an “ESG Group” composed of representatives from the President’s Office and various departments. The ESG Group is led by the Executive Vice President, who serves as the convener. Together, they collaboratively promote matters related to sustainable development. A quarterly report on the progress of GHG inventory and verification is regularly submitted to the Board of Directors. In addition, the overall implementation status of sustainable development is reported to the Board of Directors at the end of each year. In 2024, the Board of Directors approved the internal control system for sustainability information management, thereby strengthening the Board’s supervisory mechanism over sustainability-related information. At the same time, the Company officially started the preparation of the sustainability report in 2024. The Sustainability Report Preparation Team is responsible for compiling and editing the report, which is then reviewed and revised by the department heads of the preparation team. Afterward, it will be submitted to the President and Chairman for review, and once approved by the Board of Directors, the final version will be published. ANPEC, along with its governance body, continues to monitor international trends, customer and supplier demands, and government-released climate change information. In order to more effectively manage the potential impact of climate change and sustainability supply chain issues on operations, the Company will continuously review, assess, and adjust its climate sustainability governance policies.
 
  

Strategy
 
In response to global climate change and the low-carbon market transition, the Company is actively monitoring the potential risks and opportunities arising from climate change. Referencing the TCFD recommendations, we are promoting a low-carbon transition and strengthening operational resilience through four strategic directions: “Governance Unit”, “Strategy”, “Risk Management”, and “Metrics and Targets”.

Risk Management


The Company’s risk management not only includes contingency plans for risks that may impact financial performance, but also encompasses risk assessments and emergency response plans for natural disasters, environmental factors, and information-related risks. The concept of prevention is deeply embedded in the corporate culture to eliminate identifiable and avoidable risks as much as possible, thereby reducing the potential losses from operational disruptions. Through discussions involving relevant departments, the Company identifies major risks and opportunities under short-, medium-, and long-term, immediate, and ongoing scenarios, including those related to policies and regulations, corporate reputation, supply disruptions, extreme climate change events(such as floods, droughts, and sea level rise), and rising average temperatures. Response strategies and measures are proposed for these significant risks and opportunities. The overall assessment results are reported to the President, and the achievement of targets and areas for improvement are reviewed regularly. Subsequent actions will be taken based on operational conditions and regulatory requirements, and the matter will be reported to the Board of Directors as appropriate. Closely monitor global economic conditions as well as risks related to climate change and energy supply, proactively formulate corporate development strategies and adjust operational models in advance, and actively implement corresponding response measures.
 
 
  • Compliance with Climate-Related Regulations and Risk Control

As an IC design company without in-house manufacturing facilities, ANPEC Electronics is currently not classified by the Environmental Protection Administration(EPA)of Taiwan as a fixed pollution source enterprise required to report greenhouse gas emissions under Article 21, Paragraph 1 of the Air Pollution Control Act. Therefore, the company faces no immediate risk of non-compliance with existing environmental regulations. Nevertheless, ANPEC Electronics remains vigilant in monitoring domestic and international climate-related regulations and policies. The company is committed to regulatory compliance and proactively implements measures to protect the natural environment. In alignment with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures(TCFD)framework, ANPEC discloses governance, strategy, risk management, metrics, and targets related to climate risks and opportunities. Based on climate scenarios projected by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC), the company identifies transition risks and physical risks associated with extreme weather events, conducts comprehensive impact assessments, and formulates strategic responses to ensure effective policy implementation.
 
 
  • Identification and Management of Climate Risks

ANPEC Electronics integrates climate change risks into its enterprise-wide risk management framework, encompassing financial, operational, environmental, and information-related dimensions. Emergency response plans are in place to mitigate potential losses. Through cross-functional collaboration, the company identifies risks across short-, medium-, and long-term horizons, including:
  • Transition Risks:Regulatory changes, shifts in market preferences, and reputational impacts.
  • Physical Risks:Disruptions caused by extreme weather events(e.g., floods, droughts, sea level rise)and rising average temperatures.
Assessment results are regularly reported to the General Manager, with periodic reviews of target achievement and improvement actions. Depending on operational developments and regulatory requirements, relevant updates will be presented to the Board of Directors to enhance governance transparency.
 
 
  • Opportunities Arising from Climate Change

In response to global climate challenges, ANPEC Electronics actively seeks transformation opportunities and embeds sustainability into product design and technological innovation.
