GLOBE Telecom, Inc. has secured a P10-billion term loan from the Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) to assist finance capital expenditures (capex), refinance debt, and support general corporate funding requirements because the telecommunications company continues investing in its network.<\/p>\n
In a regulatory filing on Thursday, Globe said proceeds from the power might be used to partially finance capex, debt refinancing, and general corporate funding requirements.<\/p>\n
The corporate said it maintains its full-year 2026 money capex guidance of below $1 billion (about P61 billion), reflecting what it described as a disciplined capital investment strategy while continuing to speculate in network infrastructure to support rising digital demand.<\/p>\n
For the primary quarter, Globe incurred P12.7 billion in capex, up 51% from a 12 months earlier. Capex accounted for 30% of service revenues through the period, while about 91% of capex was allocated to data-related initiatives.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy investing strategically in resilient and future-ready digital infrastructure, Globe stays committed to enhancing the standard of its network to empower more Filipino homes and businesses with consistent, reliable connectivity and robust digital solutions,\u201d the corporate said.<\/p>\n
Globe\u2019s attributable net income fell 20% to P5.55 billion in the primary quarter from P6.98 billion a 12 months earlier, as higher financing costs and the absence of one-off gains booked in 2025 offset revenue and core earnings growth driven by strong data demand.<\/p>\n
For 2026, the corporate expects low- to mid-single-digit growth, supported by anticipated growth in service revenues.<\/p>\n
The LANDBANK facility follows Globe\u2019s P5-billion term loan from BDO Unibank, Inc., announced in June, which was also earmarked for capex and debt refinancing.<\/p>\n
Shares in Globe rose P20, or 1.1%, to shut at P1,824 each on Thursday. \u2014 Ashley Erika O.
