Date of events: 2014/11/12 |
Contents: |
1. | Date of occurrence of the event: 2014/11/12 |
2. | Cause of occurrence: To announce the differences of the Q3 2014 financial statements |
between under International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by ROC (Taiwan-IFRSs) and International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB (IFRSs).
3. Content of overseas financial report required to be adjusted due to inconsistency in the accounting principles applied in the two places for (please enter in Chinese): (1)Under Taiwan-IFRSs, Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. and its Subsidiaries (or the Company) reported consolidated net income of NT$9,796,123 thousand and NT$30,878,161 thousand, consolidated net income attributable to shareholders of the parent of NT$9,730,907 thousand and NT$30,549,315 thousand, and basic earnings per share of NT$1.25 and NT$3.94 for the third quarter of 2014 and the first three quarters of 2014, respectively. The Company also reported total assets of NT$434,390,406 thousand, total liabilities of NT$74,055,242 thousand, and total equity of NT$360,335,164 thousand as of September 30, 2014. (2)Under IFRSs, the Company reported consolidated net income of NT$8,896 million and NT$30,103 million, consolidated net income attributable to shareholders of the parent of NT$8,834 million and NT$29,703 million, and basic earnings per share of NT$1.14 and NT$3.83 for the third quarter of 2014 and the first three quarters of 2014, respectively. The Company also reported total assets of NT$434,191 million, total liabilities of NT$76,834 million, and total equity of NT$357,357 million as of September 30, 2014. (3)The differences in consolidated net income between under Taiwan-IFRSs and IFRSs followed by the Company mainly come from the timing of the recognition of 10% income tax on unappropriated earnings.
In addition, prior to incorporation, the Company was subject to the laws and regulations applicable to state-owned enterprises in Taiwan which differed from ROC GAAP as applicable to commercial companies. As such, revenue from providing fixed line connection service and selling prepaid phone cards was recognized at the time the service was performed or the card was sold by the Company. Upon incorporation, net assets greater than the capital stock was credited as additional paid-in-capital and part of
the additional paid-in-capital was from the unearned revenues generated from connection fees and prepaid cards as of that day. Under IFRSs, revenue from connection fees and prepaid cards was deferred at the time of the service performed or sale and recognized as revenue over time as the service is continuously performed or as consumed. This reclassification from additional paid-in capital to unappropriated earnings did not affect total equity.
4. Any other matters that need to be specified: Chunghwa Telecom's earnings distribution and stockholders equity are in accordance with Taiwan-IFRSs.

for November 2014. Consolidated revenue was NT$19.55 billion, an increase of 1.9% compared to the corresponding period in 2013. Operating costs and expenses were NT$16.28 billion, an increase of 9.2% year-over-year. Operating income was NT$3.27 billion, a decrease of 23.5% year-over-year. Pretax income was NT$3.40 billion, a decrease of 22.0% year-over-year. Net income attributable to shareholders of the parent company was NT$2.83 billion, a decrease of 20.9% year-over-year. EPS was NT$0.36. Mobile communications business revenue increased 4.2% year-over-year. The increase was primarily driven by a strong increase in the mobile internet subscriber base, resulting in 23.8% growth in mobile value-added service revenue, and a 9.8% increase in handset sales. However, some of the increase was offset due to a 12.5% decrease in mobile voice revenue resulting from VoIP substitution and market competition. Broadband access revenue remained flat while HiNet ISP revenue increased 1.4% year-over-year. For traditional fixed line services, local service revenue decreased by 5.5% due to mobile and VOIP substitution. The increase of operating costs and expenses was mainly attributable to the sale of the iPhone 6 / 6 Plus, which helped accelerate 4G smartphone sales and contributed to strong subscriber growth.
Additionally, amortization expenses also increased due to the 4G service launch.
8. | Countermeasures: None. |
