Chunghwa Telecom Reports Un-Audited Consolidated Operating Results for the Third Quarter of 2026

What happened

Chunghwa Telecom reported unaudited consolidated third-quarter 2026 results, with revenue up 16.7% year over year to NT$67.59 billion. Operating income rose 27.1% to NT$15.38 billion, and net income attributable to parent-company stockholders increased 29.5% to NT$12.22 billion; those results and earnings per share exceeded the high end of quarterly guidance.

Confirmed

Global impact / market context

Revenue growth was accompanied by faster growth in operating income, the profit earned from core operations before financing and taxes. If that pattern continues, stronger operating earnings could support cash available for investment or shareholder returns; however, costs and expenses also rose 14.0%, so they remain an important offset.

Analyst inference

The reported figures are unaudited and compare with the same quarter a year earlier. Revenue, operating income, net income and earnings per share exceeded the company’s guidance range, which may raise expectations for future results, but the article gives no share-price reaction or breakdown explaining what drove the growth.

Analyst inference

What to watch

1. Watch for audited results and any changes to reported revenue, costs, operating income or net income, since revisions could alter how investors assess the quarter’s strength. Analyst inference
2. Look for management’s explanation of growth across consumer, enterprise and international services, including whether new demand or pricing helped lift revenue and operating income. Analyst inference
3. Check future guidance against actual revenue and profit: costs rose 14.0%, so continued cost growth could narrow the benefit of higher sales. Analyst inference
