METRO Pacific Investments Corp. (MPIC) on Wednesday reported a 272.06% increase in its first-quarter attributable net income, owing to the sale of its stakes in a power producer and a toll road business in Thailand, as well as the recently signed tax incentives law.
MPIC’s attributable net income for the first quarter reached P7.03 billion, up from P1.89 billion in the same period last year, the company said in a statement to the stock exchange.
The company said it benefited from the gain recognized from the sale of Global Business Power Corp. and Thailand’s Don Muang Tollway Public Co. Ltd.
