MANILA, Philippines Megaworld, the country’s pioneer in township
developments, kicked off 2025 with a robust performance, posting a 16% year-on-year
growth in net income to P5.83 billion in the first quarter.

Consolidated revenues expanded by 11% to P20.93 billion, driven by solid contributions

from the company’s core businesses: residential, leasing, and hotel operations.

This strong start to the year reflects our clear strategy and the strength of our

diversified portfolio. All of our core businesses - residential, office, malls, and hotels -

grew during the first quarter. More than half of our township developments are in the

provinces, and the opportunity for expansion and growth is there, says Lourdes

Gutierrez-Alfonso, president, Megaworld Corporation.

Megaworld remains  the top contributor to the revenue pie of the Alliance Global

Group. This quarter’s results affirm the strength of the company’s township model,

which thrives because of the unique connections it fosters between people, businesses,

and experiences. At the same time, the LIVE-WORK-PLAY concept that Megaworld

pioneered in the Philippines has been a proven model of sustainability through the

years,” says Kevin L. Tan, president and CEO, Alliance Global Group, the parent

company of Megaworld.

Revenues from real estate sales grew 8% year-on-year to P13.09 billion, as strong

sales of projects in both Metro Manila and key growth centers in the provinces

continued to reflect healthy demand. The company, likewise, maintained solid

construction progress across multiple developments, allowing steady recognition of

revenues in the quarter.

Leasing revenues also climbed 15% to P5.34 billion, driven by sustained demand from

high-value tenants and the synergy between Megaworld’s office and retail ecosystems.

The company continues to attract and retain industry leaders across BPO,

multinationals, and lifestyle sectors, reflecting the strength of its township model in

fostering productivity, convenience, and a curated experience for both businesses and

consumers.

Megaworld Premier Offices posted a 17% increase in revenues to P3.69 billion,

supported by new lease signings and expansion from existing tenants. The company

secured over 50,000 square meters of new office leases during the quarter, the highest

quarterly total in five years. These include both expansions and new tenants from top-

tier BPOs and multinational companies.

Megaworld Lifestyle Malls, on the other hand, saw revenues rise by 11% to P1.66

billion, driven by rising foot traffic—which has already surpassed pre-pandemic 2019

levels—continued momentum in consumer spending, and over 13,000 square meters of

new tenant openings during the quarter.

Megaworld Hotels & Resorts, meanwhile, achieved the fastest growth among all

business units, with revenues soaring 27% year-on-year to P1.43 billion. The segment

benefited from higher room rates, bolstered by a range of curated hotel stay packages

and experiential promotions and event that attracted both business and leisure

travelers.

 

Megaworld remains to be one of the largest real estate companies in the country, with

total assets amounting to almost half a trillion pesos as of end-March 2025. This reflects

the strength of its balance sheet and the company's continued investment in high-value

developments.

The company now has 35 townships across the country, backed by a robust land bank

of around 7,000 hectares. Megaworld is on track to launch more township

developments this year as part of its continued expansion to the provinces.

 

The company also targets to grow its office gross leasable area (GLA) to two million

square meters by 2030, and its retail GLA to one million square meters by 2030.

These targets will bring Megaworld’s total leasing portfolio GLA to three million square

meters by 2030. PR
