Chunghwa Telecom July Revenue NT$19.88 Billion, Revenue and EBITDA Both Hit Record Highs for July

　　Chunghwa Telecom announced its unaudited consolidated operating results for July 2026. In July, the unaudited consolidated revenue was NT$19.88 billion. Operating income was NT$4.44 billion, and income before tax was NT$4.48 billion. Net income attributable to stockholders of the parent company was NT$3.34 billion and EBITDA reached NT$7.87 billion, while EPS was NT$0.43.

　　Chunghwa Telecom highlighted that its consolidated revenue increased by 3.7% year-over-year, primarily driven by strong sales revenue, contributions from subsidiaries, and gains from asset revitalization initiatives. As a result, its consolidated revenue and EBITDA both achieved record highs for the same period in July.

　　Sales revenue benefited from strong iPhone17 sales and solid demand from consumer electronics products, alongside increased subsidiary revenue fueled by AI demand, resulting in double-digit year-over-year growth. Moreover, our ongoing asset revitalization initiatives also continued to deliver positive results, contributing to both revenue and profit growth during the month.

　　Telecom core services continued to demonstrate steady growth. Mobile service revenue increased by nearly 3% year over year, supported by continued 5G speed upgrades, a growing number of upgrade subscribers, as well as stronger roaming demand. Fixed broadband revenue increased 2.6% year over year as subscribers using 300Mbps-or-higher packages grew 14.4% year over year, driven by ongoing digital transformation and AI adoption and serving as a strong pillar in the core telecom service growth.

　　Network resilience business continued to expand, whose related revenues delivered robust double-digit growth year-over-year, driven by continued contributions from SJC2 and Apricot submarine cables, as well as satellite service growth. This performance highlights the effectiveness of Chunghwa Telecom’s "Sea-Land-Sky" strategy and strengthens its leading position in resilient connectivity services.

　　ICT revenue declined year-over-year in July due to a high comparison base resulting from the recognition of large one-time projects in the same period last year. Nevertheless, revenue from mobile application projects grew by nearly 30% year-over-year, and IDC recurring revenue from co-location services continued to make steady contribution. These results reflect sustained demand for enterprise digital transformation, AI applications, and cloud adoption.

　　As of July 2026, the accumulated unaudited consolidated revenue was NT$141.24 billion. Operating income was NT$30.81 billion and income before tax was NT$31.61 billion. Net income attributable to stockholders of the parent was NT$24.09 billion and EPS was NT$3.11. Revenue, operating income, income before tax, net income attributable to stockholders of the parent and EPS all exceeded guidance.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

　　To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards pursuant to the requirements of the Financial Supervisory Commission, or T-IFRSs, Chunghwa Telecom also provides EBITDA, which is a "non-GAAP financial measure”.  EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income (loss) excluding (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) total net comprehensive financing cost (which is comprised of net interest expense, exchange gain or loss, monetary position gain or loss and other financing costs and derivative transactions), (iii) other income, net, (iv) income tax, (v) (income) loss from discontinued operations.

　　In managing the Company’s business, Chunghwa Telecom relies on EBITDA as a means of assessing its operating performance because it excludes the effect of (i) depreciation and amortization, which represents a non-cash charge to earnings, (ii) certain financing costs, which are significantly affected by external factors, including interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and inflation rates, which have little or no bearing on our operating performance, (iii) income tax (iv) other expenses or income not related to the operation of the business. 

CAUTIONS ON USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

　　In addition to the consolidated financial results prepared under T-IFRSs, Chunghwa Telecom also provide non-GAAP financial measures, including “EBITDA”. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with another method for assessing its operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of its ongoing operations.

　　Chunghwa Telecom’s management believes investors will benefit from greater transparency in referring to these non-GAAP financial measures when assessing the Company’s operating results, as well as when forecasting and analyzing future periods. However, the Company recognizes that:

• lthese non-GAAP financial measures are limited in their usefulness and should be considered only as a supplement to the Company’s T-IFRSs financial measures;
• lthese non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the Company’s T-IFRSs financial measures;
• lthese non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered to be superior to the Company’s T-IFRSs financial measures; and
• lthese non-GAAP financial measures were not prepared in accordance with T-IFRSs and investors should not assume that the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release were prepared under a comprehensive set of rules or principle.

　　Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may be unique to Chunghwa Telecom, as they may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. As such, this presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not enhance the comparability of the Company’s results to the results of other companies. Readers are cautioned not to view non-GAAP results as a substitute for results under T-IFRSs, or as being comparable to results reported or forecasted by other companies.
