transition to 5G, a rise in postpaid subscribers and roaming revenue growth. We are glad to see multiple-play package subscriptions grew 23.3% quarter-over-quarter and consumer cybersecurity subscriptions grew 17% year-over-year, instrumental to our revenue growth," said Mr. Chau-Young, Lin, President of Chunghwa Telecom. "Excluding the one-time government compensation recognized last year, our Enterprise Business Group's revenue also grew on year. Notably, revenue from our big data analysis expanded 71.6% year-over-year, driven by the smart energy project. We are equally elated with our International Business Group's performance this quarter, which achieved double-digityear-over-year growth in both revenue and income before tax, at 13.3% and 23.5% respectively, spurred by the escalating demand for international ICT projects."

"Chunghwa has been investing in AI infrastructure to enhance our operations while also providing superior service to our clients to seize opportunities in AI-driven transformation. Simultaneously, we have been bolstering our content and digital ecosystems, enriching our video business to cater to diverse customer needs while elevating user experience," said Mr. Kuo, "Moreover, Chunghwa remains steadfast in our commitment to integrate low-carbon sustainable practices throughout our business. In addition to awards and social recognitions, we are proud to report our achievements of reducing our carbon emission while our total revenue delivered consecutive growth."

"Looking ahead, we are buoyed by the various positive developments in our business. With our dedication to innovation and delivery of high-quality services and products, we are confident and enthusiastic about capitalizing our current momentum throughout the remainder of the year and the years to come." Mr. Kuo concluded.
