Food manufacturer Monde Nissin Corp. said Thursday its 2025 core net income dipped to P9.71 billion from P9.79 billion a year earlier, even as the company saw a rise in overall revenues.
Full-year sales increased 4 percent to P86.5 billion from P83.1 billion in 2024 on stronger performance in the branded food and beverage segment and the meat alternative business.
Net income in the fourth quarter rose 8.1 percent to P2.5 billion led by a modest reversal of impairment within the meat alternative division. Sales in the final three months of the year grew 5.7 percent to P23.22 billion.
The Asia Pacific branded food and beverage business recorded a 4.7-percent revenue increase to P72.8 billion. In the fourth quarter, net sales for this segment rose 5.8 percent, which the company attributed largely to volume growth in biscuits and other product categories.
Domestic operations saw a 5.4-percent increase in 2025 and a 5.7-percent rise in the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, the meat alternative segment maintained steady full-year revenue at P13.6 billion, but it posted a 5.3 percent increase in the fourth quarter.
Monde Nissin chief executive Henry Soesanto said he expects the domestic business to record mid to high-single-digit revenue growth for the first quarter of 2026.
“Amid ongoing macroeconomic and geopolitical volatility, we remain agile, proactively managing potential impacts on the business,” Soesanto said.
Following the improved financial results, the Monde Nissin’s board approved a cash dividend of P0.24 per share. Shareholders of record as of April 24 are scheduled to receive the payment on May 21.
