The Philippines.- The gaming technology supplier PhilWeb Corporation<\/strong> returned to profitability in the first quarter of 2026 despite a decline in sales. In its filing with the Philippine Stock Exchange<\/strong> on Tuesday, the company reported revenue of PHP233.06m (US$3.9m), up from PHP178.79m (US$3m) a year earlier. Sales were PHP76.93m (US$1.3m), down from PHP89.31m (US$1.5m).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Costs and expenses increased by PHP15.1m (US$0.3m), or 7.6 per cent, to PHP214.6m (US$3.6m), which the firm said was \u201cprimarily as a result of the company\u2019s strategic business expansion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
