Phinma books P308.83-M net loss in 2025
Phinma Corp. swung to a P308.83-million net loss attributable to equity holders of the parent in 2025 even as revenues climbed on the strength of its education business.
In a statement on Wednesday, the company led by Ramon de Rosario Jr. said consolidated revenues hit P22.84 billion for the year while consolidated net income reached P326.65 million.
The weaker bottom line for shareholders came as several business units faced industry headwinds while the group ramped up investments to expand capacity across its operations.
Phinma said capital expenditures rose to P5 billion in 2025, up from P3.14 billion in 2024. The company funded projects aimed at strengthening the operating capabilities of its construction materials, property and hospitality segments.
Despite the challenges, the conglomerate’s education unit remained the main growth driver.
Phinma Education Holdings Inc. booked P7.19 billion in revenues and P1.61 billion in net income for the year. This was supported by a record-high enrollment of 177,851 students across its schools in the Philippines and Indonesia for the school year 2025-2026.
The group said macroeconomic pressures and industry-related challenges weighed on the segment’s performance during the year.
Its property business also recorded a P646.56-million net loss amid a slowdown in the Metro Manila real estate market, although it continued expanding its Saludad township development in Bacolod City.
Phinma chair and CEO Del Rosario Jr. said the group continued to invest despite a challenging operating environment, positioning the company for long-term growth.
