III.          MAIN REASONS FOR THE ESTIMATED INCREASE IN EARNINGS FOR THE CURRENT PERIOD

The main reason for the estimated increase in the Company's results for the first three quarters of 2024 is that the Company has maintained a certain percentage range of equity assets in its investment portfolio in accordance with its strategic asset allocation plan. Accompanied by the recent upturn in the capital market, the Company realized a significant year-on-year increase in its investment income for the first three quarters of 2024, resulting in a substantial increase in its net profit for the same period.

IV.          RISK WARNING
