A shift is underway for one of the nation’s leading telecommunications companies. After navigating a challenging 2025, marked by a decline in overall performance, a cautious optimism is building for the year ahead.
Recent financial reports reveal a 4.12% decrease in net income, dropping to P23.3 billion compared to P24.3 billion the previous year. This downturn was largely attributed to rising operational costs – specifically, increased depreciation and interest expenses – coupled with a reduction in overall revenues.
However, the company anticipates a return to growth, forecasting low- to mid-single-digit revenue increases in the coming months. This projected rebound hinges on the consistently strong demand for mobile data services, a sector that continues to expand and drive innovation.
Investor confidence appears to be mirroring this outlook. On Monday, the company’s shares experienced a positive movement, climbing P15 to close at P1,733 per share, signaling a belief in its potential for recovery and future success.
