GMA Network Declares ₱2.4B Dividends Amid Strong Outlook

GMA Network, Inc. has declared ₱2.4 billion in total cash dividends, underscoring the company’s confidence in its financial health and growth prospects for 2025.

The dividend declaration, approved by the Board of Directors, translates to ₱0.50 per share and will be paid on May 20, 2025, to shareholders of record as of April 29, 2025.

Despite exceeding GMA Network’s net income after tax for 2024, the dividend remains well within its retained earnings, signaling disciplined fiscal management.

“This move underscores the confidence of GMA Network’s Board and management in the company’s strong financial fundamentals and its positive outlook for 2025,” the company said in a statement.

The dividend aligns with GMA’s longstanding policy of returning value to shareholders, having averaged a 90% payout of net income after tax annually since listing on the Philippine Stock Exchange in 2007.

Now in its 75th year, GMA Network continues to lead the Philippine broadcast industry, operating 115 television stations and 21 radio stations across the country.

According to Nielsen TV Audience Measurement data for 2024, GMA, including GTV and other digital platforms, reached 93% of the total Philippine population, or 67 million TV viewers.

The company also expanded its digital footprint, generating 45.5 billion video views on Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube in 2024, based on Tubular Labs data.
