MANILA, Philippines—Aboitiz Equity Ventures Inc. chalked up P5.6 billion in third-quarter consolidated net profit—up by 128 percent year on year—on the back of robust power, banking and food businesses.
For the nine-month period, AEV posted a consolidated net income of P16.8 billion, an increase of 187 percent year on year. This translated to earnings per share of P3.05 for the period.
“AEV results for the third quarter bear out the strength and consistency of income contributions from our business units. AEV’s businesses are well positioned to take advantage of the heady economic condition of the Philippines. We remain confident that this environment will remain in place for sometime to come, which should be very positive for AEV,” company president and CEO Erramon Aboitiz said.
The power group still accounted for the lion’s share of AEV’s business at 83 percent for the January to September period.
The banking and food groups ranked second and third with income shares of 11 percent and 7 percent, respectively, offsetting the negative contribution from the transport group for the period.
For the third quarter alone, AEV incurred a non-recurring income of P528 million, way over the P114-million non-recurring gain reported in the same period last year.
The appreciation of the peso against the US dollar resulted in P832 million worth of non-recurring gains due to the revaluation of dollar-denominated loans and placements on a consolidated basis. But this was offset by AEV’s share in a one-time refinancing cost incurred by an associate of AEV’s power subsidiary.
Adjusting one-off items, AEV’s core net income for the third quarter stood at a hefty P5 billion—up by 117 percent from a year ago.
