First-Half Consolidated Performance
In the first half of the year, supported by strong demand for networking, industrial control applications and advanced packaging equipment, together with the benefits of product price increases, revenue from key product lines, including IC lead frames, substrates and EME, increased significantly. Consequently, Chang Wah's consolidated revenue exceeded NT$10 billion, reaching NT$11,552 million, a record high for the same period in the Company's history. Gross profit reached NT$2,176 million, up 29% year-over-year, while profit from operations increased 36% year-over-year to NT$1,387 million. Net profit attributable to owners of the Corporation totaled NT$912 million, with EPS of NT$1.30, compared with NT$0.63 in the same period last year.

In addition, Chang Wah recorded total gains from equity investments of approximately NT$9,039 million in the first half of the year, including realized capital gains of approximately NT$917 million. As of the end of June, the market value of the Corporation's equity portfolio had increased by approximately NT$8,123 million compared with the end of last year, representing unrealized valuation gains. This reflects the continued strength of the Company's overall investment portfolio and provides greater flexibility to support dividend distributions and future investments in response to market conditions and capital requirements, thereby enhancing its financial flexibility.
