PLDT submits registration statement
for proposed VITRO REIT IPO
MANILA, Philippines, 20 June 2026 - PLDT Inc. (“PLDT”) (PSE: TEL) (NYSE: PHI) announced today that VITRO Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of ePLDT, Inc. (“ePLDT”), has submitted a registration statement and Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) Plan with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the Philippines (“SEC”) for a proposed initial public offering (the “IPO”). VITRO Inc. is in the process of changing its corporate name to VITRO REIT, Inc., subject to SEC approval, and is referred to in this disclosure as “VITRO REIT.” ePLDT is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PLDT.
VITRO REIT’s application for listing on the Main Board of the Philippine Stock Exchange (“PSE”) will be submitted separately once the SEC has acknowledged the SEC submission. PLDT will make the appropriate disclosure in connection with the PSE listing application at the relevant time.
Subject to receipt of regulatory approvals, market conditions, and other applicable approvals, ePLDT plans to offer up to 1,913,043,500 secondary common shares of VITRO REIT (the “Firm Shares”), with an over-allotment option of up to 286,956,500 secondary common shares (the “Option Shares”, and together with the Firm Shares, the “Offer Shares”) pursuant to a secondary offer, at an offer price of up to ₱11.0 per share. The proposed offer of the Offer Shares (the “Offer”) is expected to raise gross proceeds of up to ₱24.2 billion, assuming the full exercise of the over-allotment option.
The Offer Shares are expected to represent approximately 48.95% of VITRO REIT’s issued and outstanding capital stock after completion of the Offer, assuming the full exercise of the over-allotment option. The Offer Shares will be offered by the Sponsor, ePLDT, pursuant to a secondary offer. As an asset class, REITs are required to declare dividends of at least 90% of their distributable income.
VITRO REIT’s initial portfolio is expected to comprise eight stabilized, income-generating data center assets, with an aggregate Total IT Ready Capacity1 of approximately 24 MW. Its nationwide portfolio of strategically located Tier 2 and Tier 3 data centers serves
1 Refers to the energized capacity within each VITRO site based on power that has already been made available to supply IT workloads
enterprise, hyperscale, cloud and other customers, supported by secure, resilient, and scalable digital infrastructure designed for mission-critical workloads. The IPO will mark the first digital infrastructure REIT in the Philippines.
The proposed VITRO REIT IPO follows the issuance of SEC Memorandum Circular No. 1, Series of 2026, which revised the Implementing Rules and Regulations of Republic Act No. 9856, or the Real Estate Investment Trust Act of 2009. The amended rules broaden the framework for income-generating real estate to include real properties held for the purpose of generating recurring and predictable cash inflows, including digital infrastructure assets such as information and communications technology infrastructure and data centers.
“Today’s filing marks an important step in our efforts to unlock value from PLDT Group’s digital infrastructure portfolio while supporting the continued expansion of VITRO REIT’s data center platform,” said Victor S. Genuino, President and CEO of ePLDT and VITRO REIT. “As demand for secure, resilient, and scalable digital infrastructure continues to grow, the proposed VITRO REIT IPO creates an opportunity for investors to participate in the growth of one of the country’s most critical digital infrastructure sectors.”
The PLDT Group currently operates a broad portfolio of data centers nationwide, supporting the country’s growing digital infrastructure needs. The business continues to expand its capacity to support rising demand for secure, resilient, and scalable digital infrastructure, through new facilities under development. Support from the PLDT Group, which has been a pioneer and market leader in the digital infrastructure space puts VITRO REIT in a good position for future growth and portfolio expansion.
Net proceeds received by ePLDT from the sale of the Offer Shares are expected to be used by ePLDT in part, among other allowable uses under the law and in accordance with the reinvestment plan appended to the REIT Plan, for debt repayment.
UBS AG, Singapore Branch and BPI Capital Corporation are acting as the Lead International Underwriter and the Domestic Lead Underwriter, respectively; and collectively, as the Joint Global
Coordinators and Joint Bookrunners for the proposed Offer.
The proposed Offer remains subject to regulatory approvals, market conditions, and other applicable approvals. PLDT will make the appropriate disclosures as and when required under applicable regulations.
