Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. share price today

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd.'s share price was $48.97 at the close on 4 November 2026. It has been rising for 2 weeks. That is 11.5% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $41 and $49, and at that close it was at the high of that range.

A share price tends to move through four phases: moving sideways (stage 1), rising (stage 2), stalling near a high (stage 3) and falling (stage 4). Today Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. is in stage 2. The phase helps read everything below.

Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 6 weeks in a row.

Over the last 10 years the share price moved +34% while the S&P 500 moved +261%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week.

This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row.

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. declared TWD 5.20 per local share for Dec 2025. It reports in Taiwan dollars, and one US-listed share can stand for several local shares, so we do not set this against the dollar price or show a yield.

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list.

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. earned TWD 10.6 B of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +4.7% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 7th quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was TWD 38.7 B. Over 4 years profit has grown 2.1% a year on average. That is 17.3% of the quarter's revenue.

Net profit is what is left after every cost, interest and tax. Earnings per share, dividends and book value all grow from it.

The same quarter a year earlier earned TWD 10.2 B.

For the full year, FY25 profit was TWD 38.7 B (+4.0% on the year before).

Why profit moved: revenue changed +8.2% on a year earlier and the margin moved −0.5 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat.

On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +4.0% and revenue +5.1%. Profit and revenue are moving at about the same pace.

This company reports in Taiwan dollars, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (TWD); nothing is converted.

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. reported TWD 61.4 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +8.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 12th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 2.9% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at TWD 236 B.

Revenue is everything the company billed its customers in the period.

The last four reported quarters add to TWD 245 B.

FY25 revenue was TWD 236 B, +2.7% on the year before.

Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +5.1% on average, against 2.9% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate.

Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +4.9%, against +4.4% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +4.0%, against +3.9% a year (stabilising).

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd.'s operating margin was 21.6% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.5 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 20.3% and 21.6%. The latest quarter is within that range.

Operating margin is what is left from every TWD 100 of sales after the costs of running the business, before interest and tax. It shows pricing power and cost control.

Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −0.5 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −0.9 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged.

Over the last 3 years, 205% of Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in TWD 77.4 B of operating cash against TWD 38.7 B of profit.

The profit and loss account shows what was earned. The cash-flow statement shows the cash that actually came in. Comparing operating cash flow with profit is one of the best checks that a profit is real.

After TWD 27.7 B of spending on assets, TWD 49.7 B was left over as free cash.

Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year.

Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason.

What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building.

This company reports in Taiwan dollars, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (TWD); nothing is converted.

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent TWD 87.2 B on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 12.3% of FY25 revenue a year.

Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid. Debtor days: how long customers take to pay. Inventory days: how long stock sits. The cash cycle: the whole loop, in days of sales.

Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn.

Spending on assets: TWD 87.2 B over the last 3 years.

In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns.

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd.'s P/E is 31.7×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth.

P/E is the share price divided by a year's profit per share: how many dollars the market pays for each dollar of yearly profit.

In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple.

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd.'s business is giving mixed signals. Growth has been steadily positive, but ROCE at 11.5% is below the 15% level needed to call it steady growth. This is based on 12 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps.

Every business is somewhere on a path of getting better or worse, and this section names where. The last 12 quarters of growth in revenue, profit and earnings per share, plus the return the business earns on its capital, are read as lines. Getting worse: the lines are falling. Turning around: a low point has just formed and the last few quarters are rising from it. Getting better: the rise from the low has lasted. Growing steadily: steady growth with healthy returns. Slowing from a peak: still high, but slowing. When the lines disagree the result is mixed; too little history means no reading. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the steady yearly rate that would turn the starting value into the latest one. It is the fairest way to compare growth over different periods. If the 1-year figure is much bigger than the 10-year one, recent growth is running faster than the long-run trend. A dash means there is no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss, where a growth rate means nothing.

Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label.

This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution.

Compound annual growth rate (%)

Compound annual growth rate over each period, %. Revenue, profit and EPS come from yearly figures; the stock price row is price growth over the same periods. A dash means no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss.

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. earned a ROE of 10% in FY25. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 6.4 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 16.4% net margin and 0.44× asset turnover (sales divided by assets).

Return on equity (ROE) is the profit the business earns on its shareholders’ money. We do not have the full capital split, so ROE is the longest history we can draw here.

Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 16.4% net margin × 0.44× asset turnover × 1.34× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 9.7% on equity. The margin does most of the work; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed.

The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 11.1% − 4.7% = +6.4 percentage points. The 4.7% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. A gap this wide means each dollar put back into the business creates more than a dollar of value.

Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. has total debt of TWD 38.2 B against shareholder equity of TWD 382 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.10× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.10 in FY21 to 0.09 in FY25.

Debt-to-equity shows how much of the business is paid for with borrowed money. Lower is safer, and the direction matters as much as the level.

So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money.

We have no ownership or short-position figures for Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd., so this section says so rather than fill the gap. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 4.5 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead.

There is no quarter-by-quarter list of owners here, so we look at short interest: the share of tradable shares held in short positions, which gain if the price falls.

For Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd., the Z-score is 4.73. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is well clear of danger. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure.
