Biggest thing to watch: margins are the best this company has ever reported. Every ratio looks better at a record, so the story depends on margins staying high. ## What is the PLDT share price today? PLDT Inc.'s share price was $17.45 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been falling for 35 weeks. That is 12.4% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $17 and $24, and at that close it sat 4% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 8 weeks running. Over the last 10 years the share price moved −61% while the S&P 500 moved +255%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 11 September 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does PLDT pay? PLDT Inc. declared PHP 46.00 per local share for Jun 2026, and PHP 187.00 over the last four reported quarters. It reports in Philippine pesos, and one US-listed share can stand for several local shares, so we do not set this against the dollar price or show a yield. ## Which stock lists is PLDT on? PLDT is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is PLDT profitable? PLDT Inc. earned PHP 7.6 B of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −13.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was PHP 30.2 B. Over 4 years profit has grown 3.2% a year on average. That is 13.7% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned PHP 8.8 B. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was PHP 30.2 B (−7.2% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +2.1% on a year earlier and the margin moved −1.3 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −5.5% and revenue +1.0%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. This company reports in Philippine pesos, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (PHP); nothing is converted. ## How much revenue does PLDT make, and is it growing? PLDT Inc. reported PHP 55.5 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +2.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 2nd quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 3.2% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at PHP 218 B. The last four reported quarters add to PHP 221 B. FY25 revenue was PHP 218 B, +0.7% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +1.0% on average, against 3.2% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +0.9%, against +1.5% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −9.4%, against +3.2% a year (rolling over). This company reports in Philippine pesos, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (PHP); nothing is converted. ## How much of its sales does PLDT keep? PLDT Inc.'s operating margin was 26.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 1.3 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 5 years it has been between 23.5% and 26.8%. The latest quarter is within that range. Across 5 years it has been between 23.5% and 26.8%, and FY25's 26.8% is the highest of them. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −1.3 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −1.5 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. When margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so watch whether they hold. ## Is PLDT's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 297% of PLDT Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in PHP 98.7 B of operating cash against PHP 30.2 B of profit. After PHP 62.9 B of spending on assets, PHP 35.9 B was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. This company reports in Philippine pesos, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (PHP); nothing is converted. ## Where does PLDT's cash go? PLDT Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent PHP 210 B on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 32.0% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: PHP 210 B over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. This company reports in Philippine pesos, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (PHP); nothing is converted. ## What is PLDT's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? PLDT Inc.'s P/E is 8.3×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the PLDT business getting better or worse? PLDT Inc.'s business is giving mixed signals. There is no clear direction across the growth lines, with ROCE steady at 12.6%; each line tells part of the story. This is based on 12 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution. ## How much does PLDT earn on its capital? PLDT Inc. earned a ROE of 24% in FY25. That is up from a low of 9% in FY22. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 4.5 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 13.8% net margin and 0.34× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 13.8% net margin × 0.34× asset turnover × 4.96× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 23.3% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 9.2% − 4.7% = +4.5 percentage points. The 4.7% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Positive but thin: it creates value with little room for error. ## Does PLDT have too much debt? PLDT Inc. has total debt of PHP 361 B against shareholder equity of PHP 135 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 2.67× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 2.03 in FY21 to 2.80 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. This company reports in Philippine pesos, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (PHP); nothing is converted. ## What is the PLDT shareholding pattern? We have no ownership or short-position figures for PLDT Inc., so this section says so rather than fill the gap. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 3.1 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. ## How far is PLDT from balance-sheet trouble? For PLDT Inc., the Z-score is 0.88. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the danger zone. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 0.88 is inside the danger zone, so the balance sheet is a real risk. ## How does PLDT rank in its industry? There is no score against its industry: PLDT Inc. is not among the largest members shown in this industry comparison for Telecom Services. The score ranks a company within its industry: each measure is scored against the other members. Without that group there is no score, so none is shown. ## Which companies is PLDT compared with?
