Basis of Consolidation
|
|
a. |
Principles for preparing consolidated financial statements |
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of Chunghwa and entities controlled by Chunghwa (its subsidiaries).
Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired during the period are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income from the acquisition date.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with those used by the Company.
All inter-company transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation.
Attribution of total comprehensive income to the noncontrolling interests
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the stockholders of the parent and to the noncontrolling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the stockholders of the parent and to the noncontrolling interests even if it results in the noncontrolling interests having a deficit balance.
Changes in the Company’s ownership interests in subsidiaries
Changes in the Company’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Company losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Company’s interests and the noncontrolling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the noncontrolling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to stockholders of the parent.

The Company owns 28.93% equity shares of SENAO. Chunghwa had originally four out of seven seats of the Board of Directors of SENAO through the support of large beneficial stockholders. In order to comply with the local regulations, SENAO increased two seats of independent directors in June 2016; therefore, total seats of its Board of Directors increased to nine and Chunghwa continues to hold four out of nine seats of the Board of Directors. As Chunghwa remains the control over SENAO’s relevant activities, the accounts of SENAO are included in the consolidated financial statements. |
|
|
2) |
Chunghwa and CHI disposed some shares of CHIEF in June 2017 before CHIEF traded its shares on the emerging stock market according to the local requirements.

CHI disposed of some shares of CHPT in March 2016. Furthermore, CHI did not participate in the capital increase of CHPT in March 2016 and September 2017.
