MANILA, August 13, 2026 — Converge enterprise growth accelerated in the first half of 2026, with the company’s enterprise segment emerging as a key growth driver. Converge’s enterprise business surged 15.1% year-on-year to P3.9 billion in revenues as more Philippine businesses and the public sector accelerate digital transformation initiatives.

The enterprise acceleration reflects a fundamental shift in how Philippine companies operate. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly demanding high-speed, reliable fiber connectivity to compete in the digital economy, while large corporate accounts—including government agencies—are betting on robust broadband infrastructure to power their digital roadmaps.

THE REAL STORY BEHIND THE NUMBERS

“The acceleration we’re seeing across our Enterprise portfolio is a clear validation of our product roadmap,” said Converge CFO Robert Yu. “Enterprise customers aren’t just adopting our technology—they’re expanding their footprint with us, making this business unit an important driver for durable, recurring growth moving forward.”

This isn’t just about acquisition. It’s about expansion—existing customers are growing with Converge, adding more services, scaling their operations. That’s the mark of a business solving real problems.

CONVERGE ENTERPRISE GROWTH BROKEN DOWN: SMEs LEAD THE CHARGE

Converge enterprise growth came from two distinct engines, each telling its own story:

Small & Medium Enterprises: The Speed Economy

Revenue grew 15.7% year-on-year, driven by an expanding commercial client base seeking fast, dependable fiber broadband to run their operations. SMEs aren’t treating broadband as a commodity anymore—they’re treating it as mission-critical infrastructure.

A freelancer running a digital agency. A logistics startup coordinating deliveries. A retail operation managing inventory across branches. They all need fiber that doesn’t slow them down, doesn’t let them down, and doesn’t cap their data.

Converge is winning this market because it understands the problem.

Enterprise and Large Corporate: The Infrastructure Play

Revenue rose 14.8% year-on-year, powered by high-value contracts, data-heavy service adoption, and Converge’s national digital infrastructure capabilities. This is where universities are moving their campuses online. Where government agencies are building digital services. Where large corporations are running their entire operations over fiber.

The shift is unmistakable: Philippine businesses are no longer treating broadband as a utility. They’re treating it as strategic infrastructure—essential to competing, scaling, and surviving in a digital-first market.

WHERE THE GROWTH IS SHOWING UP: UNIVERSITIES AND LGUS GO DIGITAL

The proof is in the deployments. Converge Global Business, the company’s large enterprise division, recently announced partnerships with major universities and local government units (LGUs) to power their digitalization initiatives with robust connectivity solutions.

Think about what that means:

  • Universities modernizing campuses. Online learning platforms. Research networks. Student management systems. All running on Converge fiber.
  • LGUs building digital services. Online permit applications. E-governance platforms. Public records systems. All powered by Converge infrastructure.

These aren’t experimental pilots. These are real, large-scale deployments. Public-sector agencies and educational institutions are moving beyond legacy infrastructure and betting on fiber-based digital ecosystems.

THE RESIDENTIAL FOUNDATION: 3.09 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS AND COUNTING

While enterprise stole the spotlight, Converge’s residential business continued to deliver steady performance. The residential segment contributed P18.5 billion in revenues, with total subscribers reaching 3.09 million by the end of June 2026—a testament to the company’s dominance in the home broadband market.

Consolidated revenues reached P22.4 billion, up 3.1% year-on-year.

The residentials business is the anchor. The enterprise business is the growth engine. Together, they’re powering Converge’s expansion across the Philippines.

NETWORK QUALITY VALIDATES THE INVESTMENT: RANKED #1 PERFORMANCE

Converge’s infrastructure investments are paying off in measurable ways. The company earned recognition for delivering industry-leading network performance:

DICT Oplan Bantay Signal 2Q2026 Report: #1 in Fixed Broadband

Converge ranked #1 in fixed broadband network performance, delivering:

  • Average latency: 5 milliseconds (industry-leading speed)
  • Download speeds: 158 Mbps average (consistently fast)
  • Customer complaints: Down 84% from January to June 2026 (proof that quality matters)

That last stat is the real headline. An 84% drop in complaints means fewer dropped calls, fewer buffering videos, fewer frustrations. It means the system is working.

Converge took home three awards:

  • “Best Internet”
  • “Fastest Internet”
  • “Best Fixed Latency”

These accolades validate what customers experience daily: fewer friction points, faster issue resolution, and a level of service that translates into real productivity gains for businesses and real peace of mind for consumers.

“The true impact is showing up in the day-to-day experience of our customers,” noted Converge COO Benjamin Azada. “It’s not just about the numbers—it’s about fewer friction points, faster issue resolution, and a level of service that is validated not just by Ookla, but increasingly by the government.”

FINANCIAL HEALTH: BALANCING GROWTH WITH RETURNS

Despite rising oil prices and inflationary pressures, Converge maintained financial discipline and stable performance:

EBITDA: PHP 13.3 billion
EBITDA Margin: 59.1% (industry-leading)
Net Income After Tax: PHP 5.5 billion
Net Income Margin: 24.4%
Return on Invested Capital (ROIC): 14.9%
Total Cash CAPEX (1H2026): PHP 5.7 billion
Net Debt Position: PHP 15.6 billion
Gross Debt-to-Total Equity: 0.4x

The numbers demonstrate that Converge is balancing growth investment with financial health—reinvesting in the network while maintaining the margins and returns that investors expect.

WHAT CONVERGE ENTERPRISE GROWTH MEANS FOR THE PHILIPPINES

This isn’t just a corporate earnings story. Converge enterprise growth is a proxy for something bigger: Philippine businesses are digitizing faster. Government agencies are modernizing faster. Universities are transforming faster.

Every percentage point of enterprise growth represents another SME discovering that fiber connectivity isn’t a luxury—it’s survival. Another large corporation betting billions on digital-first operations. Another government agency delivering services online instead of in-person.

Converge’s job is to power that transformation. And according to these numbers, they’re doing it well.
