Aboitiz Equity Ventures stock (ISIN US0037253061) traded at PHP 39.00 on the Philippine Stock Exchange on October 5, 2026, while the group entered the final quarter with first-half net income up 63 percent to PHP 13.6 billion. The latest operating signal came from AboitizPower, which transferred two mothballed power barges to MORE Power effective October 2, 2026, according to Daily Tribune.
Profit growth sets the tone
The first-half result is the clearest earnings anchor for Aboitiz Equity Ventures. Daily Tribune reported on July 30, 2026, that consolidated net income reached PHP 13.6 billion, a 63 percent increase from the prior-year period.
The figure points to a sharper recovery than the full-year 2025 result. MarketScreener lists fiscal-year 2025 net income at PHP 18.305 billion and forecasts PHP 31.025 billion for fiscal year 2026, with the forecast representing a 69.49 percent increase, although that estimate is not a company outlook.
Power assets are being reshaped
The October 2 transaction involved Mobile 4 and Mobile 6 at the Navotas Fishport Complex. Both barges had been mothballed since February 14, 2025, while Mobile 3 and Mobile 5 remain in operation, according to BusinessWorld.
The sale removes two inactive units from the thermal portfolio rather than reducing the operating fleet described in the disclosure. BusinessWorld reported that the four Navotas barge-mounted plants had combined installed capacity of 242 megawatts before the sale, giving the transaction a defined operational context even though its value was not disclosed.
November results are next
MarketScreener's company calendar lists November 4, 2026, for Aboitiz Equity Ventures' third-quarter results, creating the next dated checkpoint for the earnings recovery. Its consensus page shows one analyst with a Buy rating, a PHP 40.50 average target and a PHP 37.50 last close in the Philippine listing, a PHP 3.00 gap between the reference values.
For investors, the key contrast is clear: first-half earnings supplied the growth signal, while the barge transfer shows portfolio discipline in a power subsidiary. Aboitiz Equity Ventures shares traded at PHP 39.00 on the Philippine Stock Exchange on October 5, 2026.
