Chunghwa Leading Photonics Tech, a subsidiary of Chunghwa Telecom, is set to list on the Taipei Emerging Stock Board. The company has recorded record-high revenue and gross margin in the first four months of 2026, boosted by rising demand in Industry 5.0 applications, advanced semiconductor process inspection, and AI data center optical communication. With short-wave infrared (SWIR) transmissive automated optical inspection (AOI) testing demand set to grow as CoWoS advanced packaging capacity expands, the company is highly optimistic about its prospects for the second half of the year, noting that AI-related demand will likely continue through 2028–2029.
