GMA Network income rises 6.28% to P2.2B on higher ad revenues

GMA Network, Inc. reported a 6.28% increase in attributable net income for 2025 to P2.2 billion from a year earlier.

In a regulatory filing on Wednesday, the company said total revenues rose 3.19% to P18.12 billion from P17.56 billion in 2024.

Advertising revenues increased to P16.57 billion from P16.24 billion, while consumer sales rose to P1.55 billion from P1.32 billion.

The company said revenues from free-to-air television and radio, online, and international operations accounted for the majority of total revenues for the year.

“Election-related placements in both periods provided the much-needed boost. Minus the extraordinary inflows in between years, consolidated revenues from all platforms fell short by 5% from regular and recurring sources,” its annual report said.

Operating expenses increased by 4.71% to P15.54 billion from P14.84 billion, driven mainly by higher production and direct costs.

Shares in GMA Network, Inc. rose by two centavos, or 0.34%, to close at P5.97 each on Wednesday. — Ashley Erika O. Jose
