Manila: Diversified conglomerate DMCI Holdings Inc. remains optimistic about its prospects for 2026 despite reporting weaker earnings in 2025, with chairman Isidro Consunji saying the group's businesses "remain on solid footing."

According to Philippines News Agency, the company experienced a 20-percent decline in consolidated net income to PHP15.1 billion last year, reflecting mixed performances across its business segments. Consunji expressed confidence in the company's diversified portfolio, which he believes provides stability as different businesses experience varying economic cycles.

DM Consunji, Inc., the construction arm of the conglomerate, reported a 15-percent increase in net income to PHP284 million in 2025, driven by higher project accomplishments. The real estate division also posted strong results, with a 24-percent rise in net income to PHP3.3 billion, bolstered by improved revenues from the residential segment, robust rental and financing income, and one-off gains from the settlement of previous investments.

Semirara Mining and Power Corporation, however, saw a 33-percent decline in net income to PHP7.3 billion, attributed to the normalization of coal and power prices, lower shipment volumes, and higher production costs. Despite this, DMCI Power Corporation maintained its positive contribution, adding approximately PHP1.25 billion to the group's earnings last year.

Nickel producer DMCI Mining also showed improved performance, contributing PHP4.1 billion in revenues and PHP882 million in net income. In contrast, Concreat Holdings Philippines Inc. reported a net loss of PHP1.9 billion, as operations continued to stabilize. The year 2025 marked the first full year of Concreat Holdings Philippines under the DMCI Group umbrella.
