PAL posts $60M profit in Q2, up 48%

Philippine Airlines (PAL) improved its second quarter net income by 48% to $60 million with more passengers sustaining its profitable operations for the 15^th consecutive quarter.

This brought net profit to $137 million for the first half of 2025, up 12% from last year, while six-month operating income amounted to $146 million.

Revenues for the second quarter alone reached $831 million, up six percent from the same period last year. Operating income rose by 10% to $71 million.

“As we pursue strong financial results, we remain committed to earning the trust of our valued customers through excellence, service quality and true Filipino hospitality on every PAL journey,” said PAL president Richard Nutall.

“To sustain our momentum in this dynamic operating environment, we will continue to focus on generating healthy revenues, maintaining financial discipline, sustaining operational integrity and providing the kind of exemplary travel experience that our customers deserve,” added Nuttall.

PAL carried 4.4 million passengers in the second quarter, nine percent more from last year, although revenue growth was tempered by softening international yields.
