To further enhance customer service, expand global brand influence, and increase responsiveness to international markets, TFC ensured the provision of stable, high-quality products and services to customers. During the reporting period, TFC steadily advanced the construction of its Singapore overseas headquarters platform and the commissioning of its production base in Thailand. As of the end of the reporting period, the overseas headquarters and Thailand production base have entered normal operations, significantly improving TFC's global resource allocation capabilities and the internationalization of its talent team. TFC's international brand influence has continued to grow. Additionally, TFC actively pursued the development of a trade compliance system, proactively identified and managed risks related to international trade, and ensured business continuity and compliance.
Research and development (R&D) innovation serves as the driving engine for corporate growth. With the rapid global development of next-generation information technologies such as cloud computing, big data, and artificial intelligence, optical devices, as the core components of information transmission, play a critical role in overcoming technical bottlenecks and achieving performance breakthroughs. TFC remains committed to key areas such as high-speed rates, high integration, high precision, and high reliability. Through continued investment in R&D, it drives the innovation and upgrading of optical device solutions. Furthermore, TFC actively invests in cutting-edge technologies in areas such as silicon photonics and co-packaged optics (CPO), while expanding its global high-quality customer base to address the future needs of large-scale data centers and AI computing power networks.
In 2024, TFC's R&D investment reached USD 32.31million, representing a 59.73% increase compared to the same period last year. TFC continued to increase its R&D expenditure, actively exploring new technological applications, striving to maintain its leadership position in niche markets, and simultaneously providing customers with more innovative solutions to support their product launches. As of the end of the reporting period, TFC held more than 200 patents.
Quality is the lifeline and the baseline for TFC's long-term sustainable operations; it is a key foundation for enhancing market competitiveness and customer satisfaction. During the reporting period, TFC was guided by its quality policy of "Precision in Every Product, Quality 120, and Craftsmanship at Tianfu," with "Craftsmanship to Original Intent" as the quality theme. This approach permeated the entire production process and involved all employees, aiming to comprehensively enhance everyone's quality awareness and capabilities. On this basis, TFC continued to optimize process flows, strictly adhered to quality standards, strengthened supply chain collaborative management, and maintained a quality-centric approach. By implementing comprehensive quality management and continuous improvement mechanisms, TFC ensured that product performance and reliability met customer requirements.
During the reporting period, TFC successfully passed the IATF16949 quality management system certification, gaining entry into the automotive industry supply chain. At the same time, Tianfu Thailand achieved ISO9001 quality management system certification. TFC focused on strengthening the high-quality development of its domestic and international business layouts, offering global multi-base production capacity options for clients.
In 2024, TFC seized the opportunity presented by the upgrade of its intelligent manufacturing information systems to fully reconstruct its information system architecture. This promoted the development of digitalization, networking, and intelligent construction, achieving a leap towards smart manufacturing. During the reporting period, TFC upgraded four major information systems: MES (Manufacturing Execution System), WMS (Warehouse Management System), ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning System), and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management System). These upgrades integrated data across R&D, production, supply chain, and quality, strengthening internal controls, reducing risks, improving efficiency, and enhancing the ability to respond quickly to customer demands, thereby providing systematic support for flexible manufacturing for clients.
TFC's goal, oriented by customer needs, was to create an efficient intelligent manufacturing system through system upgrades. By promoting systematic control and lean, automated production, TFC aimed to build a quality-first, efficiently operated digital factory.
