CHUNGHWA TELECOM CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2026 AND 2025 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)
  1. GENERAL

    Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. ("Chunghwa"; Chunghwa together with its subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Company".) was incorporated on July 1, 1996 in the Republic of China ("ROC"). Chunghwa is a company limited by shares and, prior to August 2000, was wholly owned by the Ministry of Transportation and Communications ("MOTC"). Prior to July 1, 1996, the current operations of Chunghwa were carried out under the Directorate General of Telecommunications ("DGT"). The DGT was established by the MOTC in June 1943 to take primary responsibility in the development of telecommunications infrastructure and to formulate policies related to telecommunications. On July 1, 1996, the telecom operations of the DGT were spun-off as Chunghwa which continues to carry out the business and the DGT continues to be the industry regulator.

    Effective August 12, 2005, the MOTC completed the process of privatizing Chunghwa by reducing the government ownership to below 50% in various stages. In July 2000, Chunghwa received approval from the Securities and Futures Commission (the "SFC") for a domestic initial public offering and its common stocks were listed and traded on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (the "TWSE") on October 27, 2000. Certain of Chunghwa's common stocks were sold, in connection with the foregoing privatization plan, in domestic public offerings at various dates from August 2000 to July 2003. Certain of Chunghwa's common stocks were also sold in an international offering of securities in the form of American Depository Shares ("ADS") on July 17, 2003 and were listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"). The MOTC sold common stocks of Chunghwa by auction in the ROC on August 9, 2005 and completed the second international offering on August 10, 2005. Upon completion of the share transfers associated with these offerings on August 12, 2005, the MOTC owned less than 50% of the outstanding shares of Chunghwa and completed the privatization plan.

    The consolidated financial statements are presented in Chunghwa's functional currency, New Taiwan dollars.

    (Concluded)

    1. Chunghwa continues to control more than half of seats of the Board of Directors of SENAO through the support of large beneficial stockholders. As a result, the Company treated SENAO as a subsidiary.

    2. CHIEF repurchased its stock between February and March 2026 and issued new shares in March 2025 as its employees exercised options. Therefore, the Company's ownership interest in CHIEF changed to 58.56% and 59.29% as of March 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively.

    3. Chunghwa no longer had more than half of seats of the Board of Directors of CHST since January 2025. As a result, the Company lost control over CHST and recognized CHST as an investment in associate. Please refer to Note 14(c) for details.

    4. CLPT issued new shares in December 2025 as its employees exercised options. Therefore, the

      Company's ownership interest in CLPT decreased to 62.03% as of December 31, 2025.

    5. CHTSC conducted its initial public offering through public underwriting in September 2025, and Chunghwa did not participate in the capital increase of CHTSC in accordance with applicable regulations. CHTSC issued new shares in February 2025, May 2025, August 2025 and February 2026 as its employees exercised options. Therefore, the Company's ownership interest in CHTSC decreased to 63.44%, 56.69% and 56.68% as of March 31, 2025, December 31, 2025 and March 31,

      2026, respectively.

    6. IISI was listed in November 2025. Chunghwa did not participate in the capital increase of its initial public offering through public underwriting and disposed of some shares of IISI in accordance with applicable regulations and the price stabilization mechanism. Therefore, the Company's ownership interest in IISI decreased to 44.53% as of December 31 2025. Chunghwa continues to control more than half of seats of the Board of Directors of IISI. As a result, the Company treated IISI as a subsidiary.

    7. Chunghwa invested in and established CHAI in October 2025. Chunghwa obtained 100% ownership interest of CHAI. CHAI's founding employees participated in the capital increase of CHAI in January 2026. Therefore, the Company's ownership interest in CHAI decreased to 80% as of March 31, 2026.

    8. SENAO established SAKUYO in March, 2026. SENAO obtained 100% ownership interest of SAKUYO. As of March 31, 2026, the investment capital had not been remitted.

    9. CHIEF has more than half of seats of the Board of Directors of SCT according to the mutual agreements among stockholders and gained control over SCT; hence, SCT is deemed as a subsidiary of the Company.

    10. CHI disposed of some shares of CHPT from November to December 2025. Therefore, the Company's ownership interest in CHPT decreased to 33.74% as of December 31, 2025. Though the Company's ownership interest in CHPT is less than 50%, the management considered the absolute and relative size of ownership interest, and the dispersion of shares owned by the other stockholders and concluded that the Company has a sufficiently dominant voting interest to direct the relevant activities; hence, CHPT is deemed as a subsidiary of the Company.

    11. CHTS established CHTM in June 2025. The investment capital was remitted in October 2025. CHTS obtained 100% ownership interest in CHTM.

    12. Chunghwa and CDCC Capital jointly established CDCCF in March 2026, with a combined ownership interest of 65%. CDCC Capital acts as the general partner and is responsible for the operation and management of the partnership.

    Other Material Accounting Policies
    1. Defined benefit retirement benefits

      Pension cost for an interim period is calculated on a year-to-date basis by using the actuarially determined pension cost rate at the end of the prior financial year, adjusted for significant market fluctuations since that time and for other significant one-off events.

    2. Taxation

      Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. Income taxes for interim period are assessed on an annual basis and calculated by applying to an interim period's pre-tax income the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings.

      The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities at balance sheet date.

    3. Convertible bonds

    The component parts of compound instruments (i.e., convertible bonds) issued by the Company are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

    On initial recognition, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for similar non-convertible instruments. This amount is recognized as a liability and is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method until it is extinguished upon conversion or at maturity.

    The conversion option classified as equity is measured as the residual amount, determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component, as separately determined, from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. The resulting amount, net of income tax effects, is recognized in equity and is not subsequently remeasured. Upon exercise of the conversion option, the related liability component and the amount recognized in equity are transferred to common stock and additional paid-in capital - share premium. If the conversion option is not exercised upon maturity, the amount recognized in equity is transferred to additional paid-in capital - share premium.

    Transaction costs relating to the issuance of convertible bonds are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the gross proceeds allocated to each component. Transaction costs allocated to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability, while transaction costs allocated to the equity component are recognized directly in equity.

  4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION, UNCERTAINTY AND ASSUMPTION

    In the application of the Company's accounting policies, the management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions which are based on historical experience and other factors that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed by the management on an ongoing basis.

    For the material accounting judgments and key sources of estimation, uncertainty and assumption applied in these consolidated financial statements, please refer to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

  5. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS
    1. Initial application of the amendments to the IFRSs endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC

      The initial application of the amendments to the IFRSs issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC does not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

      The Company has applied the amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity, please refer to Note 41 for details.

Note: The FSC announced in a press release in September 2025 that public companies will apply IFRS 18 starting from fiscal year 2028. In addition, entities may choose to adopt IFRS 18 earlier based on their requirements after the FSC endorses the standard.

IFRS 18 "Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements" will replace IAS 1. The standard introduces a defined structure of the statement of profit or loss, disclosure requirements related to management-defined performance measures, and guidance to enhance the principles of aggregation and disaggregation applying to the primary financial statements and notes.

Except for the above, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Company is continuously assessing the possible impact that the application of above standards and interpretations will have on the Company's financial position and operating result and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed.

$ 29,146,345 $ 27,396,423 $ 22,496,724

The main credit terms range from 30 to 90 days.

The Company serves a large consumer base for telecommunications business; therefore, the concentration of credit risk is limited. When having transactions with customers, the Company considers the record of arrears in the past. In addition, the Company may also collect some telecommunication charges in advance to reduce the payment arrears in subsequent periods.

The Company adopted a policy of dealing with counterparties with certain credit ratings for project business and to obtain collateral where necessary to mitigate the risk of loss arising from defaults. Credit rating information is provided by independent rating agencies where available and, if such credit rating information is not available, the Company uses other publicly available financial information and its own historical transaction experience to rate its major customers. The Company continues to monitor the credit exposure and credit ratings of its counterparties and spread the credit risk amongst qualified counterparties.

In order to mitigate credit risk, the management of the Company has delegated a team responsible for determining credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure the recoverability of receivables. In addition, the Company reviews the recoverable amount of receivables at balance sheet dates to ensure that adequate allowance is provided for possible irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the management believes the Company's credit risk could be reasonably reduced.

The Company applies the simplified approach to recognize expected credit losses prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of lifetime expected loss provision for receivables. The expected credit losses on receivables are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default experience of the customers and an analysis of the customers' current financial positions, as well as the forward-looking indicators such as macroeconomic business indicators.

When there is evidence indicating that the counterparty is in evasion, bankruptcy, deregistration or the accounts receivable are over two years past due and the recoverable amount cannot be reasonable estimated, the Company writes off the trade notes and accounts receivable. For accounts receivable that have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in profit or loss.

Except for receivables arising from telecommunications business and project business, the Company's remaining accounts receivable are insignificant. Therefore, only Chunghwa's provision matrix arising from telecommunications business and project business is disclosed below:
