Founded in 2000, ELTA Technology—Taiwan’s leading broadcasting brand—has long been dedicated to international sports broadcasting. Together with strategic partner Chunghwa Telecom MOD, ELTA has successfully broadcast four Summer Olympic Games, four FIFA World Cups™, and four Asian Games, earning wide recognition among audiences. Backed by over two million digital followers, ELTA has developed an innovative business model that integrates cloud-based media storage with a world-class technical team experienced in major international sports broadcasts, firmly establishing itself as an industry leader in Taiwan’s sports media landscape.

ELTA founder and Chairperson Sally Chen stated: “ELTA was born digital—technology is in our DNA. Over the past 20 years, we’ve continued to innovate, delivering diverse applications and services through the digital cloud, and providing audiences with the highest-quality video experiences.”

In recent years, ELTA has overcome the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic and achieved outstanding success with the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar™, 2023 World Baseball Classic, and Hangzhou Asian Games. In 2022, the company recorded NT$61.14 million in after-tax profit and an EPS of NT$2.81. For the first three quarters of 2023, after-tax profit has already reached NT$120 million with an EPS of NT$4.28—surpassing last year’s total. The fourth quarter is expected to continue benefiting from the Asian Games and other major events, setting the stage for another record-breaking year.

Goal: “The Delta Electronics of Digital Cloud Sports Broadcasting”

ELTA will continue its close partnership with Chunghwa Telecom MOD, integrating advanced technologies such as 4K, VR, AR, and AI to elevate the viewing experience and attract new audiences. The company also aligns with global ESG trends focused on energy efficiency and low-carbon operations, upholding its vision of “Rooted in MOD, Connecting the World Through Digital Media.” ELTA aspires to become “the Delta Electronics of the digital cloud sports broadcasting industry,” serving as a benchmark of innovation and excellence.

With the successful approval of its Taiwan Innovation Board listing application, ELTA is on track to achieve a milestone long in the making.

By delivering premium broadcasts, ELTA will continue to energize the “eye economy” and contribute to the positive growth of Taiwan’s sports and entertainment industries.

The 19th Hangzhou Asian Games recently concluded with Taiwan’s athletes giving their all—bringing home an impressive 67 medals: 19 gold, 20 silver, and 28 bronze—tying the nation’s best-ever Asian Games record. From the preliminary rounds on September 19, MOD ELTA TV was first to deliver live coverage of Team Taiwan’s performances, with nearly 500 hours of Chinese-language commentary and over 2,000 hours of total live broadcasts across 14 channels, allowing viewers to follow every moment in real time.

Sports fans show strong support—MOD ELTA Asian Games ratings surpass previous edition
1 in 5 broadcasts hit record highs; baseball remains the top draw

This year’s Hangzhou Asian Games delivered stellar ratings, driven not only by Team Taiwan’s outstanding results but also by passionate sports audiences tuning in nationwide. ELTA successfully outperformed its 2018 Jakarta–Palembang Asian Games viewership on MOD. Focusing on two-thirds of all official events, MOD ELTA achieved remarkable numbers: according to MOD ratings data, one out of every five live Asian Games broadcasts exceeded a 1.0 rating. On October 5, Taiwan’s baseball team faced China in the Super Round—scoring a record 4.96, the highest rating of the Games.

Beyond baseball, ELTA’s long-term broadcast staples—basketball (including 3x3), badminton, table tennis, track and field, and gymnastics—also achieved strong viewership aligned with Team Taiwan’s participation.

MOD ELTA covered all 19 gold medals with 60+ professional commentators
Exclusive, differentiated live coverage drives ad revenue and OTT growth

During the Games, MOD ELTA mobilized its entire team, deploying over 60 professional commentators from various sports to provide real-time, expert analysis. ELTA successfully aired every one of Taiwan’s 19 gold medal moments live, letting audiences share in the glory instantly. With over 90% of Team Taiwan’s 67 medal events broadcast live, ELTA provided MOD and OTT viewers with a uniquely comprehensive, differentiated experience unavailable on other platforms.

This all-encompassing coverage pushed MOD ELTA’s September–October ratings to surpass even the massive spike from March’s WBC baseball classic—making these the highest-rated months of 2023. The Asian Games ratings boom also boosted ELTA’s related business performance, with OTT subscriptions and ad revenues both meeting targets and driving strong profit growth in the second half of the year.

Over 100 million online views—ELTA dominates social buzz
Roller skating gold, baseball, and 3x3 basketball top trending videos

Beyond TV, ELTA excelled as a “social buzz leader.” Between 9/19 and 10/8, ELTA’s Facebook and YouTube content surpassed 100 million total views. Its on-site media team in Hangzhou uploaded highlights and interviews in real time, producing over 600 video clips that resonated with viewers. Roller skater Huang Yu-Lin’s dramatic gold-winning finish went viral, topping 1.5 million views in 24 hours and over 2.5 million within five days—claiming YouTube’s #1 spot in Taiwan. Roller skating, baseball, 3x3 basketball, and athletics highlights consistently ranked in Taiwan’s Top 5 trending videos, each surpassing 700,000 views and fueling nationwide excitement.

Taiwanese heroes shine at the Asian Games—eyes now on Paris 2024
Olympic qualifying events and major sports coverage continue on MOD ELTA

Through its complete Asian Games coverage, MOD ELTA once again delivered the thrill of world-class competition to Taiwanese audiences. The network followed boxers Lin Yu-Ting, Wu Shih-Yi, Kan Chia-Wei, and Lai Chu-En as they secured qualification for the Paris Olympics. Judo star Yang Yung-Wei, who captured Taiwan’s 100th Asian Games gold, and fellow gold medalist Lien Chen-Ling both expressed renewed determination to compete in Paris. ELTA celebrates these national heroes and will continue standing alongside Team Taiwan on the global stage—showing the world what Taiwan can achieve.

Looking ahead to summer 2024, MOD ELTA will focus on Olympic qualifying events such as the BWF World Tour (badminton), WTT Table Tennis tournaments, and World Triathlon Series, featuring Taiwanese athletes chasing Olympic points. In December, ELTA will also broadcast the Asian Baseball Championship, hosted in Taiwan. MOD ELTA remains committed to delivering top-quality sports coverage and carrying the 2023 viewing momentum into 2024.

On 9/22, the Taipei Exchange (TPEx) officially announced that ELTA Technology (8487) will have its listing industry category updated from “Cultural and Creative” to “Digital Cloud,” effective 2023/9/25.

Known for broadcasting major sporting events such as the Olympics and FIFA World Cup, ELTA is virtually synonymous with sports broadcasting in Taiwan and specializes in delivering high-quality digital content—from elite sports to drama and variety programs from Japan, Korea, and Mainland China.

With regulators refining industry classifications, moving ELTA from Cultural and Creative to “Digital Cloud” is both timely and fitting. It better reflects ELTA’s forward path: producing premium video with advanced broadcast technologies such as 4K UHD, VR, AR, and AI, and pursuing the vision of “rooted in MOD, connecting the world with digital video.”

ELTA deploys 14 channels and 2,000 hours of coverage
4K UHD Asian Games broadcasts expected to drive new highs

For the 19th Asian Games starting 9/23, ELTA—Taiwan’s exclusive broadcast agent—will go all-in. Multiple reporting crews and engineers are on site in Hangzhou, and 14 ELTA channels will deliver comprehensive coverage.

ELTA Sports 1 and 2 will broadcast in 4K UHD for the most vivid, real-time action. Across all channels, up to 2,000 live hours are planned—Taiwan’s widest and most diverse coverage—and the best way to cheer on Team Taiwan.

Through ELTA’s real-time, high-definition, and cutting-edge production, viewers can enjoy Asia’s finest athletes in Hangzhou while showcasing Taiwan’s Digital Cloud capabilities.

With fans eagerly following Taiwan’s athletes, ELTA also anticipates a ratings surge and revenue boost.

From September 23 to October 8, ELTA TV will present 16 days of elite competition on Chunghwa Telecom MOD and the online platforms Hami Video / ELTA.tv. Join us in cheering for Team Taiwan!

ELTA Asian Games 1–10

ELTA Technology (8487) held its 2023 Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting today (June 7), approving the 2022 financial statements and profit distribution plan. In 2022, ELTA reported operating revenue of NT$981,131 thousand, an increase of NT$47,138 thousand or 5.05% compared to NT$933,993 thousand in 2021. Net income after tax reached NT$61,140 thousand, up by NT$17,710 thousand from NT$43,430 thousand in 2021. Basic earnings per share were NT$2.81, a 37.75% increase compared to the adjusted NT$2.04 in 2021. The Board of Directors also approved a cash dividend of NT$2.2 per share, representing a dividend yield of 6.29%.

Reviewing the 2022 performance, ELTA achieved its highest-ever records since its founding 20 years ago—in operating revenue, net income, earnings per share, and cash dividends. Notably, the return on equity (ROE) reached an impressive 20.39%.

Strong Results in First Half of 2023
WBC Classic Boosts Revenue Up 62.11% YoY

In the first two quarters of 2023, boosted by the World Baseball Classic (WBC) in March, ELTA achieved its highest ratings since 2021. Monthly revenue hit NT$153 million, with total revenue from January to May reaching NT$415 million—a 62.11% increase compared to NT$256 million during the same period last year. This growth was driven mainly by higher revenue sharing from ratings and stable OTT subscription growth, showcasing strong profit momentum across ELTA’s two core businesses.

Exciting Sports Lineup in Second Half
Hangzhou Asian Games Expected to Drive New Highs

As Taiwan’s leading sports broadcaster, ELTA continues to deliver a packed second-half lineup. The Chengdu Universiade (starting July 28) and Hangzhou Asian Games (starting September 23) promise strong performances from Taiwanese athletes with no time zone difference. ELTA will once again provide Taiwan’s “most comprehensive and authoritative” broadcast coverage. Regular events such as four daily MLB live games, along with exclusive rights to BWF Badminton, WTT Table Tennis, Premier League, and UEFA Champions League matches, combine both depth and breadth. These programs are expected to further boost ratings and subscription growth, driving an optimistic outlook for ELTA’s 2023 performance.

NCC Approves 5 New Channel Licenses
Digital Content Expansion to Drive Future Growth

The National Communications Commission (NCC) recently approved ELTA’s applications for five new channels, including three temporary “ELTA Asian Games 1–3” channels during the September Games, the 4K-focused “INULTRA Sports & Leisure Channel,” and “ELTA Sports 4,” which highlights grassroots sports in Taiwan. With these additions, ELTA’s family of channels will expand to 15 across genres including sports, drama, variety, music, lifestyle, and pets. This diversified content strategy will allow ELTA to serve audiences even better and is expected to fuel another wave of growth when its new digital content channels launch in late September.

After the first week of the 2023 World Baseball Classic (WBC), Team Taiwan delivered four thrilling games that captured fans’ hearts. MOD ELTA TV, which holds exclusive rights to all 47 games, achieved record-breaking ratings—especially during the March 11 matchup against the Netherlands, when slugger Yu-Cheng Chang (“Minister of Defense”) hit a grand slam, driving ratings to an astonishing 11.43—the highest sports broadcast rating of the past year. Despite losing the opening game to Panama, Taiwan’s comeback victory over Italy on March 10, their epic performance against the Netherlands on March 11, and the decisive matchup against Cuba on March 12 achieved massive ratings of 9.09, 11.43, and 7.68, respectively. Overall, WBC’s first-week viewership on ELTA surpassed the average ratings of last year’s Qatar World Cup by 2.2 times!

Ninth-Inning Ad Boom WBC Ad Revenue Doubles
OTT Subscriptions Up 20% in First Week Fans Miss No Moment

Continuing its “All-in Sports Platform” strategy, ELTA’s streaming service ELTA.tv achieved a 20% subscription increase during the first week of the WBC. Notably, even fans attending games at Taichung Intercontinental Stadium were simultaneously streaming ELTA Sports on their mobile devices to stay updated in real time. On the advertising side, “9th-inning ad” slots sold out before the tournament began, doubling revenue projections—proving once again that baseball is truly Taiwan’s national pastime.

Four MLB Games Daily ELTA Secures Exclusive New Media Rights
March 31 Season Opener to Feature Yu-Cheng Chang and Shohei Ohtani

To ensure Taiwan’s own “Minister of Defense” Yu-Cheng Chang never feels alone abroad, ELTA invites fans to cheer him on together! The 2023 MLB season officially begins on March 31 (Taiwan time). MOD ELTA announced its acquisition of exclusive new media broadcast rights for the season and will feature four live games daily, showcasing elite MLB action and superstars like Chang and Shohei Ohtani.
