Ayala Land 1Q 2025 Net Income Reaches P6.9B, Up 10% YoY

​Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) delivered double-digit earnings growth in the first quarter of 2025, achieving net income of P6.9 billion, 10% higher than last year. Consolidated revenues totaled P43.6 billion, a 6% year-on-year improvement, driven by resilient property development bookings and healthy leasing operations.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

Property Development revenues expanded by 11% to P27.8 billion, lifted by contributions across Premium residential offerings and Commercial and Industrial lots for sale. Residential revenues reached P22.0 billion, 3% more than the previous year, anchored on the resilience of the Premium segment. Meanwhile, commercial and industrial lot revenues more than doubled to P5.7 billion owing to strong sales at Arca South in Taguig City.
Property Development reservation sales grew 4% year-on-year to P36.2 billion led by Premium residential sales, which rose 4% to P20.7 billion and take-up for Commercial and Industrial lots which more than tripled to P4.9 billion. The strength of these segments cushioned the contraction in the Core residential segment which contributed P10.5 billion to total sales.

The Company launched four projects during the quarter worth P12.6 billion, all located outside Metro Manila and with 90% from the Premium segment. These projects include AyalaLand Premier’s Virendo in Toril, Davao, and sequel phases of Ayala Westgrove Heights and Amaia Scapes Gen. Trias both in Cavite.

LEASING AND HOSPITALITY

With reinventions across flagship malls and hospitality assets in full swing, leasing revenues totaled P11.6 billion, a 7% increase from 2024, on stable occupancy and lease escalation. Shopping Center revenues grew 4% to P5.7 billion on the back of growing contributions of core and emerging malls. Office revenues reached P2.9 billion, also 4% higher year-on-year, with lease escalation and sustained better-than-industry occupancy levels. In addition, revenues from hotels and resorts expanded 10% to P2.6 billion anchored on improving occupancy and room rates, notwithstanding the closure of hotels undergoing renovation. Moreover, our emerging Industrial Real Estate portfolio of warehouses, cold storage and industrial land accounted for P357 million in revenues, 60% more than the first quarter of 2024, driven by AREIT’s industrial land holdings and newly opened cold storage facilities.

“As we close the first quarter of 2025, I am pleased to share that Ayala Land remains firmly on track— guided by discipline, resilience, and long-term perspective—even as we navigate today’s complex macroeconomic landscape,” said ALI President and CEO Ms. Anna Ma. Margarita Bautista-Dy. “We are energized with what lies ahead and continue to deliver sustainable long-term value for all our stakeholders.” she added.

CAPEX, BALANCE SHEET AND SHAREHOLDER VALUE

First-quarter capital expenditures reached P20.6 billion, of which 46% was spent on the build out of residential projects, 30% to prime and develop infrastructure within our estates, 16% on leasing and hospitality assets, and 9% on continuing land acquisition commitments.

The balance sheet remains solid with a healthy net gearing ratio of 0.75:1 and interest coverage ratio of 5.2x.
