The Philippine Ports Authority (PPA) set a new financial record in 2025, collecting ₱30.09 billion in revenue and declaring its largest dividend remittance of ₱5.33 billion to the National Government.
This represents an 8.86% increase from 2024, with the dividend equaling 52% of the agency’s net income, surpassing the minimum required by law.
PPA General Manager Jay Daniel Santiago credited the gains to higher vessel traffic, cargo throughput, storage revenues, tariff adjustments, and effective fiscal management.
The additional funds will support port infrastructure projects aimed at improving trade facilitation, logistics efficiency, and tourism growth nationwide.
Over the past decade, the agency’s revenues have shown consistent growth, reflecting its ongoing efforts to modernize and strengthen the Philippine port system.
