The announcement comes as the group expands its platforms in the Philippine market.
The Philippines.- DigiPlus Interactive Corp chairman Eusebio Tanco has acquired 1.4 per cent of the company’s issued and outstanding shares, according to a statement released by the group on Monday, March 2. Tanco reportedly purchased nearly 63.12m additional shares in the latest transaction, a move the group says reflects strong confidence in DigiPlus’ growth strategy.
Tanco said: “I firmly believe in our ability to capture the significant opportunities ahead and deliver enduring value to our shareholders.”
The announcement comes as the group expands its platforms in the Philippine market amid growing regulatory scrutiny and potential limits on legal online gaming. In its last financial update, published in November 2025, the company reported a 59 per cent decline in net income for 3Q25 to PHP1.71bn (US$29.1m). Revenue fell 23 per cent to PHP19.05bn (US$325m), while EBITDA dropped 55 per cent to PHP2bn (US$34.1m).
DigiPlus said at the time that the declines were due to “temporary disruptions in player activity and transaction volumes” following an August mandate from the Philippines central bank, BSP requiring e-wallet providers to remove in-app access to licensed gaming platforms.
Last week, DigiPlus received approval from International Entertainment’s shareholders to acquire HK$1.6bn (US$204.6m) of the company’s convertible notes. The deal would make DigiPlus the largest and controlling shareholder of the Hong Kong-listed operator.
