AEV's net income from January to March rose by 22 percent to P4.9 billion from P4 billion reported in the first quarter of 2023.

Excluding a non-recurring net loss of P54 million, the company's core net income for the quarter stood at P5 billion, eight percent higher than the company's core net income of P4.6 billion during the same period last year.

Power remained the major driver of the group's performance, accounting for 67 percent of net income contributions during the quarter, followed by financial services with 16 percent.

"The first quarter of the year has been an exciting one for the Aboitiz Group, as we continue to build on our strong foundation of sustainable growth," Aboitiz Group president and CEO Sabin Aboitiz said.
