By solidifying its position as the technology infrastructure for the country's tier-one integrated resorts and global content providers, the Company continues to aggressively scale its profitable digital ecosystem.

Total revenue grew 96% year-on-year and 51% quarter-on-quarter to ₱352.4 million, driving a Q2 net income of ₱47 million, up 237% quarter-on-quarter. This financial trajectory was heavily propelled by the Company's core digital gaming solutions segment. Comprising the proprietary interactive platform solution and an elite game content distribution network, the segment generated ₱200.3 million in Q2 2026, a 152% sequential increase, and now accounts for 57% of total group revenue.

PhilWeb's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) reached ₱51.5 million in the second quarter, representing an 886% increase year-on-year and a 119% increase quarter-on-quarter. Margin expanded from 10% in the first quarter to 15% in Q2, highlighting the powerful operating leverage of the Company's technology solutions.

"The rapid sequential growth and margin expansion in the second quarter validate the massive operating leverage of our digital gaming solutions segment. By empowering tier-one licensed operators and global content providers, we are establishing a comprehensive, regulatory-compliant digital ecosystem that drives long-term commercial value," President Brian Ng said.

New Phase of Governance and AI-Powered Technology Scale

The financial turnaround comes alongside the recent election of prominent business leader and strategic investor Lance Y. Gokongwei to PhilWeb's Board of Directors, supporting the Company's move to accelerated technology execution and AI infrastructure deployment.

With a cleaner operating baseline and strengthened capitalization, PhilWeb is now focused on scaling its B2B AI-enabled infrastructure across the Company's regulated digital ecosystem.

Together, these capabilities position PhilWeb as a technology leader in the region's regulated digital platform industry.
