Taipei, Taiwan - February 10, 2026 - Far EasTone Telecommunications (TAIEX: 4904, FET) today announced its unaudited consolidated financial results for January 2026. Supported by continued 5G upgrades from mobile subscribers, steady growth in ICT services and consumer digital offering, and strong handset sales, FET delivered an impressive start to 2026. In January, consolidated revenue reached NT$9,663 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 11.6%.

FET set new January highs for consolidated revenue and EPS, while EBITDA set an all-time monthly record, marking a strong opening for the year 2026.

FET's mobile business delivered solid performance in January. Driven by continued 5G adoption, postpaid 5G penetration reached 47.8%, maintaining its industry-leading position. Sustained growth in postpaid ARPU continued to support mobile service revenue momentum, which rose to NT$5,252 million, marking a historical high for the same period. This achievement also represents 59 consecutive months of year-over-year growth since March 2021, underscoring the long-term strength of FET's core mobile business.

FET's enterprise ICT business sustained its growth momentum in January. In addition to the continued stable delivery of system integration, IoT, and cloud service projects, Far Eastern Electronic Toll Collection Co., Ltd.

In the area of green ICT, FET has independently developed a range of sustainable digital solutions to support the Hsinchu City Government in deploying public electric vehicle charging infrastructure. By integrating technology and data analytics, FET is enabling smarter urban governance and positioning public charging stations as a key component of smart city infrastructure.

FET's consumer digital services also delivered solid results in January. Driven by the continued growth of friDay Video and FET Guardian Network, overall digital lifestyle service revenue maintained steady upward momentum. According to the latest "2025 Communications Market Report" released by Taiwan's National Communications Commission (NCC), friDay Video once again ranked No. 1 among domestic OTT platforms in terms of paid subscriptions, maintaining its leading position for four consecutive years and demonstrating a strong and stable market foundation.
