To correct the Companys June 2011 revenues: 8.4% decrease yoy in net income was misstated as increase
Date of events: 2011/07/11
Contents:
1. Date of occurrence of the event: 2011/07/11
2. Company name: Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd.
3. Relationship to the Company (please enter head office or affiliate company): Head office
4. Reciprocal shareholding ratios: N/A
5. Cause of occurrence: Chunghwa Telecom today announced a 6.5% year-over-year increase in unconsolidated total revenue to NT$16.35 billion in June 2011. Operating income decreased by 3.5% year-over-year to NT$4.37 billion, net income decreased by 8.4% year-over-year to NT$4.28 billion, and EPS rose by 14.6% to NT$0.55.
The revenue increase was primarily attributable to the rise in local fixed line revenue resulting from the shift of the pricing right of a fixed-to-mobile call from mobile operators to fixed network operators, as well as to the growth in mobile value added services and the sales of smartphones, which offset the impact of the tariff reduction mandated by regulator starting from April 2011 and the pricing right shift on mobile revenue. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to the rise in cost of sales and marketing expenses because of the popularity of smartphones and 3G handsets, interconnection and transition fees resulting from the pricing right shift, as well as the higher maintenance fee for promoting mobile internet service and migrating broadband customers to higher speed services.
The increase in non-operating income was primarily due to the completion or construction of the land development projects by subsidiary Light Era and the accompanying recognition of a proportion of sales or construction as revenue, which resulted in a rise in long-term equity investments under the equity method and a net gain on disposal of property. The reduction in the corporate income tax rate effective in June 2010 from 20% to 17% contributed to the rise in net income for June 2010. As a result, the net income for June 2011 represented a yoy decrease. The increase in EPS was mainly due to the capital reduction in January 2011, which decreased the number of outstanding shares.
