The specific identification standards of internal control defects are as follows:
1. Identification standard of internal control defects in financial reporting
The quantitative criteria for the evaluation of internal control defects in financial reporting determined by the company are as follows:
The quantitative standard takes the operating income and total assets as the measurement indicators. If the loss that may be caused or caused by the defect of internal control is related to the income statement, it shall be measured by the operating revenue index. If the amount of misstatement in the financial report caused by the defect alone or in combination with other defects is less than 1.00% of the operating revenue, it is recognized as a general defect; If it exceeds 1.00% but less than 2.00% of the operating revenue, it is recognized as an important defect; If it exceeds 2.00% of the operating revenue, it is recognized as a major defect.
Losses that may be caused or caused by internal control defects related to asset management shall be measured by the total asset index. If the amount of financial report misstatement that may be caused by the defect alone or in combination with other defects is less than 0.50% of the total assets, it is recognized as a general defect; If it exceeds 0.50% but less than 1.50% of the total assets, it is recognized as an important defect; If it exceeds 1.50% of the total assets, it is recognized as a major defect.
The qualitative criteria for the evaluation of internal control defects in financial reporting determined by the company are as follows (mainly determined according to the nature, scope and other factors of the potential negative impact of defects):
Signs of significant deficiencies in financial reporting include: (1) identifying any degree of fraud in senior management. (2) Make corrections to the published financial reports.

The quantitative criteria for the evaluation of internal control defects in non-financial reporting determined by the company are as follows:
The quantitative standard for the evaluation of internal control defects in non-financial reports shall be implemented with reference to the quantitative standard for the evaluation of internal control defects in financial reports.
The qualitative criteria for the evaluation of internal control defects in non-financial reporting determined by the company are as follows (mainly based on the impact of defects on the effectiveness of business processes and the possibility of occurrence):
If the possibility of defects is small, it will reduce the work efficiency or effect, or increase the uncertainty of the effect, or make it deviate from the expected goal, which is a general defect;
If the possibility of defects is high, it will significantly reduce the work efficiency or effect, or significantly increase the uncertainty of the effect, or make it significantly deviate from the expected goal as an important defect;
If the possibility of defects is high, it will seriously reduce the work efficiency or effect, or seriously increase the uncertainty of the effect, or make it seriously deviate from the expected goal, which is a major defect.
