Under Taiwan-IFRSs, Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (or the “Company”) reported consolidated net income of NT$9,269,461 thousand and NT$18,391,091 thousand, consolidated net income attributable to stockholders of the parent of NT$8,947,528 thousand and NT$17,752,472 thousand, and basic earnings per share of NT$1.15 and NT$2.29 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The Company also reported total consolidated assets of NT$517,759,939 thousand, total consolidated liabilities of NT$145,100,892 thousand, and total consolidated equity of NT$372,659,047 thousand as of June 30, 2021.

The Company also reported total consolidated assets of NT$517,570 million, total consolidated liabilities of NT$146,065 million, and total consolidated equity of NT$371,505 million as of June 30, 2021.
|
7.
|
Inconsistent items/amounts in financial information for securities issued overseas:
|
The differences between consolidated net income under Taiwan-IFRSs and that under IFRSs followed by the Company mainly come from the timing of the recognition of 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 the generally accepted accounting principles 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 the date of incorporation. Under IFRSs, revenue from connection fees and prepaid phone 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 retained earnings did not affect total equity.

Chunghwa Telecom consolidated revenue for July 2021 increased year over year to NT$ 16.56 billion, mainly due to the increase of Application VAS revenue related to financial technology project and the increase of mobile service revenue driven by 5G subscriber growth, as well as the increase of data communications revenue and broadband access revenue owing to the higher stay-at-home demand, which was offset by the decrease of ICT project revenue. Operating costs and expenses was NT$ 12.92 billion. Operating income was NT$ 3.64 billion. Income before tax was NT$ 3.82 billion. Net income attributable to stockholders of the parent company was NT$ 2.97 billion. EPS was NT$0.38, which increased year over year. In addition, revenue reached the third quarter guidance previously announced while operating income, pretax income and EPS all exceeded the guidance.
