Far EasTone Telecommunications (TW0004904008) presented a smart city platform covering 330,000 streetlights at the Smart Taichung forum on October 2, 2026, while four analysts set an average 12-month target of TWD 107.00 for Far EasTone stock. Newswav reported on October 9, 2026 that Far EasTone's presentation showed connectivity availability of 97.70 percent.
Three dated operating signals
On August 6, 2026, Far EasTone reported second-quarter earnings per share of TWD 1.11, up 19.00 percent year over year, according to Investing.com. The figure followed TWD 0.98 in the cited estimate.
August monthly revenue then reached TWD 9.55 billion, up 15.65 percent year over year, while revenue through August totaled TWD 75.27 billion, according to Winvest on October 8, 2026.
The current event came on October 2, 2026, when Far EasTone President Chee Ching joined the Smart Taichung forum and discussed 5G artificial intelligence of things applications for urban governance. Newswav said the event examined smart poles, 5G connectivity and data applications.
What does the platform mean?
The 330,000-light footprint gives Far EasTone an operating base beyond conventional mobile connectivity. The 97.70 percent availability rate is the more important commercial detail because recurring maintenance and service quality determine whether smart infrastructure becomes a durable business line.
The earnings figures point to the same operating theme. Second-quarter revenue was TWD 28.66 billion and net income was TWD 4.01 billion, according to the standardized financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2026. That compares with first-quarter revenue of TWD 27.80 billion and net income of TWD 3.71 billion, making the second quarter the stronger sequential period on both measures.
Targets and upcoming dates
Investing.com listed four analysts with an average 12-month target of TWD 107.00, alongside a high target of TWD 120.00 and a low target of TWD 91.00. JPMorgan was listed with a Buy rating and a TWD 120.00 target dated July 16, 2026.
TradingView lists November 5, 2026 as the next earnings date. Far EasTone's latest reported quarterly EPS of TWD 1.11 therefore remains the key benchmark for the next update.
