To ensure the implementation of ethical business practices, Cayman Eurocharm has established an Audit Office in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Establishment of Internal Control Systems by Public Companies.” The internal audit unit reports directly to the Board of Directors and is responsible for auditing relevant regulations, ISO systems, and internal control systems. Before carrying out audit tasks, auditors must first determine the purpose and scope of the audit, conduct preliminary investigations to assess risks, and collect all relevant documents to formulate an audit plan. Based on this plan, audits are conducted on applicable regulations, ISO systems, and internal control systems. Auditors explain the audit purpose, scope, and procedures to the heads of the departments being audited, confirm their operational procedures, review relevant documents, interview personnel, and observe actual operations. If necessary, relevant staff may be asked to demonstrate operations on-site. If deficiencies are found, full communication and discussion with the audited departments are conducted, and recommendations for improvement are proposed. After organizing related discussion materials, an “Audit Report” is submitted to the director designated by the Board. Completed audit items must be submitted to each independent director for review by the end of the following month and serve as the basis for follow-up improvements. Auditors shall distribute the previous quarter\u2019s audit findings to the audited departments in the first month of each new quarter. The audited departments must respond to the Audit Office by the second month with details of improvement measures taken or planned. Improvements should be completed within three months, unless special circumstances are reasonably explained. In 2024, a total of 134 audit reports were issued, with 142 improvement recommendations proposed. Audited departments were promptly notified to adopt appropriate corrective actions based on the recommendations. These measures were incorporated into the company\u2019s audit management system to ensure ongoing monitoring and progress tracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Company has established an Audit Office under the Board of Directors, staffed with one audit supervisor and an appropriate number of qualified full-time internal auditors. In addition to regularly reporting audit operations to the Audit Committee, the audit supervisor also attends Board meetings to deliver reports. The purpose of audit work is to assist the Board of Directors and management in examining and reviewing deficiencies in the internal control system, assessing the effectiveness and efficiency of operations, and providing timely recommendations for improvement. This ensures the continuous and effective implementation of internal controls and serves as a basis for reviewing and revising the internal control system. The appointment, evaluation, and compensation of internal audit personnel are handled in accordance with the “Internal Audit Implementation Rules,” “Salary Management Measures,” “Assessment Operation Measures,” and “Transfer and Resignation Operation Measures.” The appointment or dismissal of the internal audit supervisor must be approved by the Board of Directors. Performance evaluations are conducted twice a year, and evaluation results and compensation are submitted through the approval process to the Chairman for final approval. The aforementioned procedures have been disclosed in the Company\u2019s internal regulations portal. The appointment of the internal audit supervisor and their acting proxy was approved by the Audit Committee on October 31, 2023, and subsequently ratified by the Board of Directors. Independent directors and the external auditors meet at least twice a year during Audit Committee meetings. During these meetings, the external auditors report on the audits of the Company and its domestic and overseas subsidiaries and communicate thoroughly regarding any material audit adjustments. At each Audit Committee meeting, the internal audit supervisor also reports to the independent directors on the implementation status of internal audits and the Company\u2019s internal control operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
