en.Wedoany.com Reported - On April 11, 2026, the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA) released port operation data for Fiscal Year 2025 and the first month of 2026. The report shows that in 2025, the total port revenue of Subic Bay reached PHP 1.77 billion (approximately USD 31 million), a 4.2% increase from PHP 1.7 billion in 2024. Among the revenue sources, the Seaport Department, as the core contributor, generated PHP 1.47 billion; the Airport Department and the Trade Facilitation and Compliance Department (TFCD) contributed PHP 182 million and PHP 125 million respectively.

In terms of business drivers, a surge in the handling of non-containerized cargo was the primary growth factor. Driven by the handling demands for bulk agricultural products such as rice, corn, wheat, and soybeans, as well as imported petroleum products (a 46% increase), SBMA's share-based revenue grew by 52%. Furthermore, thanks to a 17% increase in vessel calls (an additional 149 calls), vessel charges and cargo charges recorded significant growth of 59% and 38%, respectively.

Entering Fiscal Year 2026, Subic Bay continued its growth momentum. In January, the total port revenue was PHP 113.7 million, a 13% year-on-year increase. The specific distribution was: Seaport operations PHP 97.7 million, Airport operations PHP 5 million, and TFCD operations PHP 11 million. SBMA Chairman and Administrator Eduardo Jose Aliño confirmed that the port's current resilience is attributed to previous sustained investments in infrastructure modernization and Public-Private Partnerships (PPP).

Currently, SBMA has clarified that it will increase capital expenditures in port digitalization and sustainable development initiatives in the future.
