The latest financial reports from Taiwan's three major telecom operators have been released with impressive results! Benefiting from continuously rising 5G penetration rates, the successful delivery of large-scale AI and ICT (Information and Communications Technology) projects, and the surge in viewing demand driven by summer video content and the '2026 FIFA World Cup™', Chunghwa Telecom, Taiwan Mobile, and Far EasTone all set multiple historical records in June revenue and profitability. Cumulatively in the first half of this year (January to June), all three operators exceeded their originally set annual financial forecasts, demonstrating strong operational leverage and the effectiveness of diversified transformation.

Chunghwa Telecom: Consolidated revenue exceeds NT$121.35 billion in 1–6 months! AI supply chain deliveries and the World Cup boost monthly revenue to a record high

Chunghwa Telecom announced its consolidated revenue for June of year 115 reached NT$21.34 billion, an 11.4% year-on-year increase.

"Even with heavy data usage, I’m never secretly throttled—Chunghwa gives you what’s promised straightforwardly."
