PASAY CITY, Philippines<\/span><\/span>, Nov. 19, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — SM Investments Corporation (SM Investments) reported a consolidated net income of PHP64.4 billion<\/span> in the nine months of 2025, up 6% from PHP60.9 billion<\/span> in the same period last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Consolidated revenues likewise increased by 4% to PHP482.3 billion<\/span>, compared with PHP462.5 billion<\/span> a year ago.<\/p>\n

“The third quarter performance remained within our expectations. Despite the challenges brought about by adverse weather and flooding, we continued to see resilient financial performance across our businesses,” said Frederic C. DyBuncio, President and Chief Executive Officer, SM Investments. “While external factors may temper overall economic growth, we maintain an optimistic outlook as we move into the fourth quarter.”<\/p>\n

Banking accounted for the largest share of SM Investments’ net income at 50%, followed by property (28%), retail (15%), and portfolio investments (7%).<\/p>\n

Retail<\/b><\/p>\n

SM Retail reported net income stood at PHP12.2 billion<\/span>, from PHP12.8 billion<\/span> in the previous period.<\/p>\n

Retail revenues, on the other hand, grew 5% to\u202fPHP318.1 billion from PHP301.8 billion<\/span> in the previous period.<\/p>\n

“The earlier school opening in June this year pushed some spending from the third to the second quarter. Despite this shift, specialty retail spending grew in the health and beauty, fashion and kids categories while essential spending continued to prop up growth for food retail,” Mr. DyBuncio observed.<\/p>\n

Department store revenues grew 3% in the fashion and kids segments while food retail revenues increased 7% supported by a strong market base and store expansions.<\/p>\n

Specialty retail revenues rose 4% driven by growth in the kids and home categories. \u00a0<\/p>\n

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

BDO Unibank, Inc. (BDO) recorded a net income of PHP63.1 billion<\/span>, an increase by 4% from PHP60.6 billion<\/span> last year due to sustained performance of its core business segments.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Net interest income grew by 8% as gross customer loans climbed by 14% to PHP3.5 trillion<\/span> on broad-based growth across all market segments. Deposits expanded by 10%, with a Current Account\/Savings Account (CASA) ratio of 67%.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Asset quality remained stable, with Non-Performing Loan (NPL) ratio at 1.77%, and NPL coverage at 134%.<\/p>\n

China Banking Corporation posted a net income of PHP20.2 billion<\/span> for the first nine months of 2025, up 10% year-on-year with core businesses delivering robust results. Net interest income grew by 15% to PHP53.5 billion<\/span>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Non-performing loan (NPL) cover was 123%, higher than the industry average. Gross loans rose 14% to PHP994.0 billion<\/span> on strong demand from both the corporate and consumer segments.<\/p>\n

Deposits also rose by 9% to PHP1.4 trillion<\/span>, securing a stable funding base, driven by 12% year-on-year growth in checking and savings accounts.<\/p>\n

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

SM Prime Holdings, Inc. (SM Prime) reported nine-month profit to PHP37.2 billion<\/span>, up 10% from PHP33.9 billion<\/span> a year earlier. The growth was driven by higher contributions from the mall and convention center segments.<\/p>\n

Total revenues rose 4% to PHP103.4 billion<\/span> from PHP99.8 billion<\/span>. Malls accounted for 59% of revenues, increasing 7% to PHP61.0 billion<\/span> from PHP57.3 billion<\/span> due to the addition of leasable space and tenants.<\/p>\n

The residential segment, covering both core and leisure projects, contributed over 31% of total revenues, easing 2% to PHP32.6 billion<\/span> from PHP33.1 billion<\/span> due to slower revenue recognition from mid-segment developments.<\/p>\n

Hotels and Convention Centers, which pitched in 6% to revenues, registered the strongest growth at 9%, rising to PHP6.0 billion<\/span> from PHP5.5 billion<\/span> on the back of higher MICE bookings.<\/p>\n

Revenues from Offices and Warehouses, which represented almost 4% of the total, remained steady at PHP4.0 billion<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Portfolio Investments<\/b><\/p>\n

The portfolio investments’ performance was driven by Philippine Geothermal Production Company which contributed 30% of total portfolio income, followed by NEO with 26% and 2GO with 12%. 2GO revenues increased 6% and net income by 65% supported by the strong performance of its travel and logistics businesses.<\/p>\n

Balance Sheet<\/b><\/p>\n

The total assets of SM Investments increased 4% to PHP1.8 trillion<\/span>. Gearing ratio remained conservative with 31% net debt to 69% equity.<\/p>\n
