The Philippine Ports Authority on Thursday reported total revenue of P30.09 billion for 2025, up 8.86 percent from the previous year.
The state-run agency attributed the revenue surge to sustained growth in vessel traffic and cargo throughput. Higher storage revenues, strengthened regulatory income following tariff adjustments and favorable gains from dollar-denominated tariffs also contributed to the record figures, it said.
These factors reflect a continued expansion of maritime trade activities. The results also highlight the implementation of revenue optimization and fiscal management strategies under PPA General Manager Jay Santiago.
“With its consistent upward revenue trajectory, PPA is well-positioned to fund ongoing and upcoming port infrastructure projects aimed at enhancing trade facilitation, improving logistics efficiency, and supporting tourism growth,” Santiago said.
Total revenues for the authority rose from P14.32 billion in 2016 to P27.64 billion in 2024. Regulatory income increased from P6.82 billion to P15.68 billion.
