PLDT releases combined 2025 Annual and Sustainability Report
MANILA, Philippines, May 21, 2026 – The Philippines largest fully integrated telecommunications company PLDT Inc. (PLDT) has released its Annual and Sustainability Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. This report presents a holistic view of PLDT, includes highlights of the company’s consolidated financial, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance, including those of its subsidiaries and associates, as prepared by Management and approved by its Board of Directors, through its Governance, Nomination and Sustainability Committee and Audit Committee.
Carrying the theme “Going Beyond the Signal”, the combined report encapsulates PLDT’s progress in harnessing technology, including AI, and integrating sustainability across its business operations to create long-term value and drive meaningful transformation.
In his statement, PLDT Chairman and CEO Manuel V Pangilinan defined growth drivers for the company, emphasizing the necessary transition from being a telecommunications company to a technology company, and citing tangible metrics to measure success of investments across customer segments.
“This is what going beyond the signal means to us—not simply adapting to modernity, but having the ambition to redefine it,” said Pangilinan. “When we committed to fiber, many questioned the economics. When we invested in the networks that would carry 5G, the timeline seemed uncertain. In both cases, the investment proved right. It always does, when you are investing in the Filipino people,” he added.
PLDT reported various enablers of performance for its key business segments in 2025, including continued investments in network quality, hyper-personalized offers, fiber expansion, and the deployment of ICT and digital trust solutions. In addition, the company demonstrated increasing adoption of AI, particularly to enhance customer experience, network efficiency and resilience, and workforce enablement.
On ESG, PLDT continued to build on its industry leadership and strengthened its alignment with global best practices, achieving a score of 77 out of 100 in the 2025 S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment and securing back-to-back inclusion in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook 2025 and 2026.

During the year, PLDT distributed PhP 141.1 billion in economic value across its stakeholders, which included PhP 22.8 billion investments in employees. The company further reinforced due diligence and assessment of its human rights impacts, reporting zero cases of child labor and forced labor in its own operations and supply chain, among others.
PLDT also strengthened efforts to manage climate-related impacts in 2025, focusing on adaptation through fortification of network infrastructure and mitigation through the transition to renewable energy sources and adoption of greening technologies. The company also enacted landmark policies on biodiversity conservation, energy management, and water stewardship.
“To ensure our long-term corporate existence, we are broadening the conversation beyond speed, network reach and profitability, to include whether we can create lasting value without depleting resources, particularly people and the environment”, said PLDT Chief Sustainability Officer Melissa Vergel de Dios.
Ahead of the mandatory requirement, PLDT’s 2025 combined report includes sustainability-related and climate-related disclosures aligned with the International Financial Reporting Standards.
The report also serves as PLDT’s communication on progress in its continuing commitment to the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals and to the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact on human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption.
