From January to March, the PSE registered a 5.1-percent improvement in its net income to P254.67 million from last year's P242.38 million.

The PSE said that its financial performance during the quarter takes into account its acquisition of additional shares in Philippine Dealing System Holdings Corp. (PDS).

Its operating revenues for the three-month period surged by 82.7 percent year-on-year to P645.49 million, fueled by an increase in trading and listing-related revenues to P222.60 million and P171.19 million, respectively.
