Key takeaways from 2Q26 earnings call

1. CPO opportunities: Management highlights its focus on FA and glass-molding

PMLA for FAU in CPO switches. On FA, Largan aims to start sampling in coming 2-3

weeks, with customers usually taking 2-4 weeks for qualification. Largan will enter

mass production once qualification is passed. The company aims to complete the

pilot line for FA in late 3Q26. Overall, management commented the mass production

timeline could be at mid 2027 the earliest.
