East West Banking (PSE:EW) posted net income of 9.2 billion Philippine pesos for 2025, jumping 21% from the previous year, according to a Thursday Philippines Exchange filing.
The growth is driven by stronger core revenue, double-digit growth in fee-based income, and disciplined operational efficiency.
Total revenues rose 20% year on year to 51 billion pesos, supported by net interest income of 40.6 billion pesos and a 13% expansion in interest-earning assets.
Operating expenses, however, increased 8% on year to 25.4 billion pesos, largely due to volume-related costs and continued investments in technology and staff, boosting productivity, it said.
