Consolidated revenues for the January to June period rose 6% to PHP319.2 billion<\/span>, up from PHP301.4 billion<\/span> in the first half of 2024.<\/p>\n

“We continue to see steady growth across our core businesses, supported by favorable macroeconomic conditions in the Philippines<\/span>,” said Frederic C. DyBuncio, President and Chief Executive Officer of SM Investments Corporation. “Bank lending remains strong, and consumer spending in our malls and retail stores continues to rise.  “The Philippine economy was steady at 5.4% growth in the first quarter, while inflation has eased to its lowest level since 2019, creating a more supportive environment for both corporates and consumers. Despite global trade uncertainties, overall sentiment remains positive, and we share that optimism for the remainder of the year.”<\/p>\n

In non-food retail, revenues of the department store grew by 11%, marked by a shift in the school opening to the second quarter.<\/p>\n

Revenues for specialty retail grew 5%, fueled by spending on stationery or back-to-school items, fashion as well as health and beauty categories.<\/p>\n

Food retail revenues increased 8% to PHP127.1 billion<\/span> due to store expansion and volume growth.<\/p>\n

Banking<\/b><\/p>\n

BDO Unibank, Inc. reported net income increased to PHP40.6 billion<\/span>, up 3% from PHP39.4 billion<\/span> in the same period last year supported by strong performance from its core businesses. <\/p>\n

China Banking Corporation posted PHP13.0 billion<\/span> in net income, up 14% on the back of strong core business growth. Net interest income increased by 15% to PHP34.9 billion<\/span> on higher asset yields and loan volume.<\/p>\n

Property<\/b><\/p>\n

SM Prime Holdings, Inc. (SM Prime) reported first-half net income rose 11% growth to an all-time high of PHP24.5 billion<\/span>, driven by higher rental income, real estate sales and ancillary revenues.<\/p>\n
