PHINMA reports near P17-B revenues, P609-M income from January to September
PHINMA Corporation’s (“PHN” or the “Company”) consolidated revenues surged to ₱6.61 billion for the third quarter of the calendar as the Company pursues more initiatives seeking to improve the lives of Filipinos. Net income attributable to equity holders of the parent was at ₱144.9 million during the said timeframe. Consolidated revenues rose to ₱16.98 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 while consolidated net income was at ₱609.13 million.
Net income attributable to shareholders of the parent at ₱122.73 million for the same period. While this is down from the same period last year due to lower selling prices and higher operating costs, interest expense and tax, it is a turnaround from the net loss attributable to equity holders of the parent in the first half of ₱22.1 million.
“The Group is seeing gradual improvement in our figures as our business investments take more shape. The commitment to making lives better remains steadfast even as we navigate through these headwinds. We continue to challenge our business units to directly cater to the underserved in their respective industries, as we have been doing in education,” said PHINMA Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mr. Ramon R. del Rosario, Jr.

Enrollment growth drives PHINMA Education’s performance—first-semester enrollees for School Year (SY) 2024-2025 climbed by 12% to 163,854 compared to the prior school year. Beyond enrollment numbers, PHINMA Education is committed to delivering quality education: the company registered an 84% overall board passing rate with 31 board exam topnotchers in various fields for SY 2023-2024.

PHINMA Property Holdings Corp. (PHINMA Properties) posted ₱1.11 billion in revenues from January to September. While it also recognized a net loss of ₱387.85 million, the company remains focused on expanding its footprint beyond Metro Manila in locations like Bacolod, Cebu, Davao, and Batangas. PHINMA Properties’ flagship project is Saludad, a 21-hectare master-planned township located in Bacolod which features the Group’s other business offerings.

The figures were driven by higher chainwide occupancy rates and average daily rates due to improving tourist and business demand.
“PHINMA will build on realized gains as we gear our business operations towards strong, sustainable growth and improved efficiencies. The Group’s efforts to capitalize on synergies among our units and pursue new ventures in fields like food security, socialized housing, and the green industry will allow us to directly serve more Filipino families and communities,” said PHINMA President and Chief Operating Officer Dr. Chito B.
