Concepcion Industrial profit dips in 2025

MANILA, Philippines — Concepcion Industrial Corp. (CIC), a provider of consumer lifestyle and enterprise solutions, finished 2025 with a slight dip in earnings despite higher sales amid industry-wide challenges.

CIC, in a stock exchange filing, said its consolidated earnings amounted to P1.1 billion last year, down by 8.3 percent from P1.2 billion in 2024.
