DigiPlus Interactive Corp. said it remains confident in its long-term growth potential despite the recent unusual stock price movement which it traced to market speculation.
Digiplus operates leading online gaming platforms BingoPlus, ArenaPlus and PeryaGame.
Data from the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) showed DigiPlus’ stock price fell to P38.74 as of Thursday from a recent high of P65.30.
DigiPlus, in a disclosure to the stock exchange, attributed the sharp decline to market speculation following the filing of two proposed bills on June 30, 2025: the Online Gambling Regulatory Bill and the Online Gambling Prohibition Bill, introduced in both the Senate and House of Representatives.
“The company notes the recent share price movement and attributes this to market speculation following the filing of the Online Gambling Regulatory bill and Online Gambling Prohibition bills filed at the Senate and House of Representatives since June 30, 2025,” DigiPlus said.
The proposed Online Gambling Regulatory bill aims to enhance responsible gaming standards and strengthen regulatory oversight in the sector.
DigiPLus said the “the bills are still in the early stages of the legislative process and have not been enacted into law.”
Adding to the regulatory scrutiny, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) announced Thursday it would release a new circular designed to protect users of digital platforms from risks associated with online gambling.
The BSP said the circular would require BSP-supervised institutions (BSIs), primarily banks and electronic money issuers, to implement better protections for users on their digital platforms.
It said this protection could include various limits to gaming access.
DigiPlus said despite these developments, it is fully operational, continues to conduct business as usual and maintains confidence in its long-term growth potential.
Meanwhile, shares of Bloomberry Resorts Corp., which recently launched its own online gaming application, also saw declines. From a recent high of P6.18 per share, Bloomberry’s shares closed at P4.70 on Thursday.
