San Miguel's Nine-Month Net Income Soars 112% to P78.6 Billion A Testament to Resilience and Growth

San Miguel Corporation (SMC), led by Ramon Ang, has reported a remarkable nine-month consolidated net income for the period ending September 30, 2025, reaching P78.64 billion, a staggering 112% increase from the P37.09 billion recorded in the same period last year.
