In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange on Friday, Nov. 14, the company reported that sales disruptions from natural calamities contributed to the fall in its nine-month net income to P1.866 billion from P2.12 billion in the same period last year.

Despite the drop in net income, Lorraine Belo-Cincochan, Wilcon’s President and Chief Executive Officer, assured that underlying demand will allow the business to improve on its latest figures.
