The Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA) reported P1.77 billion in port revenue for 2025, up 4.2% from P1.7 billion 2024.
“Our 2025 port revenue performance demonstrates how Subic Bay continues to thrive despite global economic uncertainties. This achievement highlights our modern infrastructure, efficient processes, and strong public-private partnerships,” SBMA chairman and administrator Eduardo Jose Aliño said in a statement.
Majority of the income was generated by the Seaport Department, which contributed P1.47 billion.
The balance came from Airport Department at P182 million, and Trade Facilitation and Compliance Department (TFCD), 125 million.
“This achievement highlights our modern infrastructure, efficient processes, and strong public-private partnerships,” Aliño said, noting that the port’s resilience is a direct result of strategic investments in capacity.
For this year, SBMA port revenues have already surged by 13% year-on-year at P113.7 million in January from P100.4 million.
The 2026 first month earnings came from the Seaport Department at P97.7 million, Airport Department at P5 million, and TFCD at P11 million.
Aliño said that some of the key factors that fueled growth include a 52% increase in SBMA share collections primarily due to a surge in non-containerized cargo handling, which include rice, corn, wheat, and soya.
Another factor, he added, is the 59% increase in vessel charges and 38% growth in cargo charges.
Non-containerized cargo volumes grew by 47%, with imported petroleum products up by 46%.
Further, ship calls increased by 17%, totaling 149 additional vessel arrivals.
