Smart poles add a 5G angle
According to Newswav on October 2, 2026, the forum examined 5G smart pole deployment, AIoT applications, and cloud technologies for urban governance. The event places Far EasTone's communications network in a broader infrastructure discussion rather than limiting the company story to mobile subscriptions.
What does the forum mean for 5G?
The practical question is whether connectivity, sensing, and data services can produce new enterprise demand. The forum described smart poles as communications and data nodes, while Far EasTone's participation supplied the 5G operator perspective; the source identified Chee Ching as the company's president.
Earnings growth supports the valuation
Far EasTone reported second-quarter 2026 earnings per share of TWD 1.11, up 19.00 percent from the prior-year quarter, while cumulative first-half earnings per share reached TWD 2.14, up 17.00 percent year over year, according to Winvest. August 2026 revenue was TWD 9.55 billion, up 15.65 percent year over year, and revenue through August reached TWD 75.27 billion, up 11.38 percent year over year.
The analyst comparison is tighter than the earnings growth: the TWD 107.00 average target is TWD 1.00 above the TWD 106.00 Taiwan close. The same consensus page lists three Buy ratings and one Hold rating, with individual targets from TWD 91.00 to TWD 120.00.
