Dito Telecommunity Corp. is entertaining interest from new investors as the telco hits key business milestones, including surpassing 15 million subscribers and posting projected revenue growth of up to 27 percent for 2025, company CEO Eric Alberto said on Wednesday.
In an interview on the sidelines of the launch of Dito BizBayan, the company’s dedicated platform for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), Alberto said Dito’s strong performance is drawing increased attention from potential investors.
‘With all these positive milestones, I think we’re getting a lot more visibility and interest from investment quarters,’ Alberto said, citing the company’s growing subscriber base, robust fixed wireless access (FWA) business, and recognition as the country’s best network for four consecutive quarters by Opensignal and Ookla.
He said Dito expects to close 2025 with 16 million mobile subscribers and approximately 500,000 fixed wireless access (FWA) subscribers. The company’s enterprise and carrier business, which started from zero just two years ago, is projected to contribute over P1.5 billion in revenue.
‘I think we’re finishing the year with 26 percent to 27 percent growth in revenue. The market in total is flat or slightly negative even.’
He attributed the projected strong performance to subscriber acquisition across consumer and enterprise segments, backed by an improved network.
Aside from entertaining new investors, Dito’s parent Dito CME Holdings Corp. is pushing with the capital infusion from Summit Telco Corp. Pte. Ltd. of Singapore.
Alberto confirmed the investor remains ‘committed,’ though the full investment is still ‘pending fulfillment of certain conditions’ from the original agreement.
In another development, Dito launched a new business unit called Dito BizBayan, which targets the micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs).
‘We are unveiling a new brand conceived to meet the dynamic and evolving demands of Filipino MSMEs – delivering scalable, cost-efficient, and high-performance digital services and solutions.’
The platform offers connectivity bundles with unlimited 5G with speeds of up to 100 Mbps, along with security solutions and managed IT services tailored for small businesses.
Alberto said the MSME sector represents a significant growth opportunity for Dito, particularly as more Filipinos turn to digital entrepreneurship through platforms like Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok.
‘Having a strong entrepreneurial base for our country is the founding and fortifying cornerstone of economic development,’ he said, citing examples of mature economies such as Spain and Italy.
