Absence of ‘white knight’ may derail Multiply rehab plan

At the rate things are going, it seems the Multiply may be headed towards liquidation.

After it was abruptly abandoned by its supposed strategic investor, the French retail giant Casino Guichard-Perrachon early this year, Multiply now finds its rehabilitation plan in jeopardy since no other "white knight" has come forward to rescue the debt-saddled flagship chain Multiply LLC and its sister companies.

Although there were earlier reports that several interested parties led by the US Wal-Mart chain and two investor groups from Hong Kong and Taiwan have sent feelers for exploratory buy-in negotiations with Multiply, there has been no indications of any breakthrough agreements yet, which has apparently made the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) "impatient."

SEC sources said the corporate watchdog is now bent on imposing a strict deadline for Uniwide as well as its SEC-appointed interim receiver to at least gain inroads in talks with potential investors to avoid the possibility of declaring a "failure of corporate rehabilitation" which could eventually lead to liquidation.

The SEC approved Multiply’s rehabilitation plan in February last year after the company signed a memorandum of understanding with Casino for the latter to gain control of the local chain upon infusing P4 billion in additional liquidity.

But Casino backed out of the deal and opted not to extend the MOU which expired on Dec. 31, 2016 even as the Multiply receiver had clinched the much-delayed approval of the creditor banks on the rehabilitation plan. Casino and Multiply said they could not execute the fund infusion and corporate rehabilitation pending the consent of all of Multiply’s creditor banks. Multiply has a debt load of about P16 billion, over half of which are owed to the banks.

The French retailer reportedly said it was abandoning its plan to acquire Multiply, not because of the country’s political uncertainties, but because creditors failed to agree on how to rehabilitate the discount retailer.

With the absence of a white knight, the creditor banks of Multiply – led by UCPB, International Exchange Bank and Metrobank – have sought a dacion en pago or payment in kind arrangement with the SEC. – Conrado Diaz Jr.

Hitmaker takes talent management seriously

Vehnee Saturno has built a solid reputation as top songwriter 38 years into the ’biz. ABS-CBN’s “ASAP” even gave a tribute to his hit compositions with Martin Nievera as main performer two years ago.

Vehnee’s first hit in 1983 was the song “Be My Lady” which launched both his and Martin’s careers as songwriter and recording artist, respectively. That big break led to a string of gold, platinum, and multi-platinum record awards. Hit after hit, his songs did wonders to the rising careers of Donna Cruz, Jessa Zaragoza and Jaya. Even Jay R and Sarah Geronimo acknowledge the fact that Vehnee’s songs greatly contributed to their respective careers.

Lately, Vehnee has been exploring the artist management field more seriously. Some of those he has helped are James Wright for whom he produced an eponymous album which won Gold Record; Beverly Caimen who won Best Vocalist at WCOPA and currently making waves in Japan’s music scene; Esang de Torres who trained at Vehnee Saturno Music Training Center (VSMTC); and R&B singer Daryl Ong whose rise to stardom began when he made his own version of Vehnee’s “Ikaw Na Nga” first sung by Willie Revillame.

Gabby Lopez steps down; cousin Mark taking over

Eugenio “Gabby” Lopez III yesterday announced his retirement as ABS-CBN Corp. chair, an influential role that allowed him to define the entertainment and news experiences of millions of Filipinos over the last two decades.

During the media giant’s annual stockholders’ meeting, Lopez nominated his younger cousin Mark Lopez to take his place as ABS-CBN chair.

He will assume the title of chair emeritus and will stay on as a director of ABS-CBN. He told shareholders he would continue to provide “consultative” guidance to the board.

The elder Lopez, who served as ABS-CBN chair since 1997, is credited with growing the company into the media conglomerate that it is today.

It was also during his tenure when ABS-CBN embarked on an ambitious diversification program that included its entry into broadband internet via SkyCable and the launch of digital television.

His cousin, ABS-CBN CEO Carlo Katigbak, described him on Thursday as the “one constant” over the last 21 years, helping transform the company from a radio and TV network “into a truly diversified multimedia and content company.”

During his speech, the elder Lopez emphasized the need for younger figures in top management to lead ABS-CBN.

“The demographic profile of the Philippines has always been biased toward the youth. Who can asses better the needs of our audience than like-minded young managers,” Lopez, who turned 65 last August, said.

“Today’s digital world is vastly different from the world I managed,” he added.

Mark Lopez is 45 years old while Katigbak is turning 48 this month.

The elder Lopez noted that Mark Lopez’s role was envisioned to be mainly “a fiduciary responsibility.”

Mark Lopez has been with ABS-CBN for seven years. His role in the media giant was that of chief technology officer. A key initiative of his was the company’s system modernization, which included moving key functions to the cloud and automating content creation and delivery. He also had a direct hand in ABS-CBN’s shift to digital television.

Before joining ABS-CBN, he worked for 13 years in Manila Electric Co., where he rose to the rank of vice president and chief information officer.

In a statement, ABS-CBN said Gabby Lopez’s decision to step down was not related to the current political environment and was on account of previously set succession planning terms.

It said Mark Lopez was “identified as a successor as early as five years ago.”

ABS-CBN is one of the media groups that earned the ire of President Duterte for critical new reporting.

A separate issue dating back to the presidential campaign over ABS-CBN’s failure to air Mr. Duterte’s political ads further strained relations.

Last year, Mr. Duterte threatened to block the renewal of ABS-CBN’s franchise, which expires in 2020. During ABS-CBN’s previous annual stockholders’ meeting, Lopez, whose father was jailed during the martial law, downplayed those concerns, saying the threats were “part and parcel of our work being a media institution.”

“We will comply with all the requirements associated with the renewal of our franchise and we hope to participate in the renewal process,” Kane Choa, ABS-CBN head of communications, said yesterday.

Toward the end of his retirement speech, Lopez said he would continue to work and “not disappear into the woodwork.”

“I may be retired but I am not dead,” he quipped. “At the end of the day, I can also take time out to just relax and watch the grass grow. Nobody who knows me will ever believe that is what I will do.”

Gabby Lopez retires as ABS-CBN chairman

Eugenio “Gabby” Lopez 3rd has stepped down as chairman of media giant ABS-CBN Corp, turning over the position to cousin Martin “Mark” Lopez.

Gabby Lopez’s retirement after over two decades at the helm was announced during ABS-CBN’s annual stockholders’ meeting on Thursday.

“As every athlete knows, there comes a time when inevitably it’s time to let go of the reins and allow others to take over,” he said in a speech.

“My father has always said ‘broadcasting’ is for the young. After all, today’s digital world is vastly different from the world I managed,” he added.

The 65-year-old Gabby, who also served as a chief executive officer from 1997 to 2012, stressed: “[I] will not disappear into the woodwork.”

He was then elected chairman emeritus, following his father Eugenio “Geny” Lopez Jr. who was given the post in 1997.

ABS-CBN said Gabby Lopez was responsible for transforming the company “from being the country’s biggest broadcasting network into being the country’s leading media and entertainment company.”

He paved the way for the introduction of the company’s cable TV service SkyCable, global subscription channel The Filipino Channel, and streaming sites TFC.tv and iWant TV, and ABS-CBN TVplus, a digital terrestrial television product.

The media firm’s new chairman, Mark Lopez, said he accepted “this huge responsibility of carrying on the company’s vision of being in the service of the Filipino—using the blueprint of excellence and innovation set by Gabby”.

“ABS-CBN has played an instrumental role in nation-building in the past 65 years. We understand what the company means to the Filipino and this country, and we will take this to heart as we guide the company through its digital transformation,” he added.

Mark was previously ABS-CBN’s chief technology officer, focusing on the company’s strategic directions and technology operations as well as its modernization program.

He also spent 13 years at power distribution utility Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) where he was vice-president and chief information officer, and president of subsidiary e-Meralco Ventures, Inc.

Also yesterday, ABS-CBN disclosed that its board had given the go-signal for an additional investment of P592 million to fund Sky Cable’e expansion.

Gabby Lopez turns over leadership to cousin

Eugenio “Gabby” Lopez III has been elected Chairman Emeritus of ABS-CBN Corporation after stepping down as Chairman of in favor of cousin Martin “Mark” Lopez, the son of Ambassador Manuel Lopez.

In a statement, ABS-CBN said its Board of Directors elected the new Chair and Chairman Emeritus during its organizational meeting as part of the company’s succession planning process.

Gabby, who turned 65 last August and is the second chairman emeritus in the company’s history, will remain as a director of the Board. His father Eugenio Lopez Jr. was given the same title after Gabby was elected chairman in 1997.

“As every athlete knows, there comes a time when inevitably it’s time to let go of the reins and allow others to take over,” he said.

He added that, “my father has always said ‘broadcasting’ is for the young. After all, today’s digital world is vastly different from the world I managed.”

In his speech after the ABS-CBN annual stockholders’ meeting, Lopez stressed that he “will not disappear into the woodwork.”

Gabby, who also served as CEO of ABS-CBN from 1997 to 2012, is credited with steadily transforming ABS-CBN from being the country’s biggest broadcasting network into being the country’s leading media and entertainment company.

Under his helm, ABS-CBN diversified into various successful ventures that include interactive and online media, international and domestic cable and satellite channels, broadband services, sports programming, consumer products and licensing, digital TV, and immersive experiences.

Meanwhile, Mark said “I accept this huge responsibility of carrying on the company’s vision of being in the service of the Filipino – using the blueprint of excellence and innovation set by Gabby.”

Already identified as a successor as early as five years ago, Mark said “We understand what the company means to the Filipino and this country, and we will take this to heart as we guide the company through its digital transformation.”

In his previous role as chief technology officer, Mark was responsible for setting the company’s strategic directions and ensuring operational excellence in information and communications, as well as technology broadcast engineering.

He spearheaded ABS-CBN’s system modernization, highlighted by the migration to the cloud and the automation of content creation and delivery to various media platforms.

He was also responsible for ABS-CBN’s migration to HD and the completion of the digital terrestrial television (DTT) infrastructure.

Prior to joining ABS-CBN, Mark spent 13 years at MERALCO, the largest power distribution company in the country, where he eventually assumed the role of vice president and chief information officer and concurrent to his role as CIO, he also served as the president of e-Meralco Ventures, Inc. until 2010.

Gabby Lopez retires as chair of ABS-CBN Corp.

Mark Lopez to take his place

Eugenio “Gabby” Lopez III has retired from the role of being the longtime chair of media giant ABS-CBN Corp., ending an era that spanned over two decades.

Lopez, who nominated his cousin Mark Lopez to take his place as company chair, will instead assume the title of chairman emeritus, and will stay on as a director of ABS-CBN.

On Thursday, he told shareholders during the company’s annual meeting that he would continue to provide “consultative” guidance to the board.

The elder Lopez, who has helmed ABS-CBN as chair since 1997, was credited with growing the company into the news and entertainment conglomerate that it is today.

It was also during his tenure when ABS-CBN embarked on an ambitious diversification plan, which included its entry into broadband Internet via SkyCable, and the launch of digital television.

“Today’s digital world is vastly different from the world I managed,” he added.

Mark Lopez is 45 years old while company CEO Carlo Katigbak is turning 48 this month.

The elder Lopez noted that Mark Lopez’s role was envisioned to be mainly “a fiduciary responsibility.”

Mark Lopez has been with ABS-CBN for seven years. He is the media giant’s chief technology officer.

ABS-CBN said Mark Lopez was “identified as a successor as early as five years ago.”

ABS-CBN, alongside other media groups, has earned the ire of President Duterte for critical news reporting.

A separate issue dating back to the presidential campaign over ABS-CBN’s failure to air Mr. Duterte’s political ads further strained relations.

Last year, Mr. Duterte threatened to block the renewal of ABS-CBN’s franchise, which expires on March 30, 2020.

ABS-CBN was now revamping its content strategy to compete with other stations.

“I think the entertainment, lifestyle and news and current affairs will stay, substantially as it is. The sports content will still be there and we’re expanding the sports content. Then there will be some entertainment shows that we will be putting in,” Lopez said.

“It’s not a shutdown situation for ABS-CBN. I think it’s a selective kind of programming. I think it’s the only way for ABS-CBN to compete. The viewing habits for video are slowly changing, so we want to move in the direction rather than stay with the legacy where we are not competitive,” Lopez said.

During ABS-CBN’s previous annual meeting, the elder Lopez, whose father was jailed during the marital law regime of the late strongman President Ferdinand Marcos, downplayed those concerns. He said the threats were “part and parcel of our work being a media institution.”

“We will comply with all the requirements associated with the renewal of our franchise and we hope to participate in the renewal process,” Kane Choa, ABS-CBN head of communications, said on Thursday.

Gabby Lopez nominates Mark Lopez as ABS-CBN chairman

(UPDATE) Eugenio "Gabby" Lopez III on Thursday nominated Martin "Mark" Lopez to succeed him as chairman of ABS-CBN Corp, the country's largest media and entertainment company.

At the close of an annual stockholders meeting, Lopez III said he would no longer seek reelection as ABS-CBN chairman, as he quoted from his father, the late Eugenio "Geny" Lopez Jr., known fondly to ABS-CBN employees and the industry as "Kapitan" (Captain).

"My father has always said, broadcasting is for the young. That statement is as true today as the statement that change is the only constant," Gabby Lopez said.

"For the young have the courage to go where no one has ever been. Why not, or bakit hindi, has always been one of the defining attributes of our organization," he said.

"The demographic profile of the Philippines has always been biased towards the youth. Who better to assess the needs of our audience than like-minded young managers?" he said.

Mark Lopez, and ABS-CBN President and CEO Carlo Katigbak are both in their 40s, Gabby Lopez said.

Mark Lopez's role as chairman will be "distinctly different" from his own, especially as the company pivots to digital, Gabby Lopez said. Katigbak will handle day-to-day operations, he said.

Currently ABS-CBN's chief technology officer and a member of the board of directors, Mark Lopez spearheaded the company's systems modernization which saw a migration to the cloud and the automation of content creation and delivery to various platforms.

He was responsible for ABS-CBN's migration to HD and put in place its digital terrestrial TV infrastructure.

Mark Lopez served under Meralco, the country’s largest power distributor, where he worked as vice president, chief information officer and president of unit e-Meralco Ventures Inc.

Gabby Lopez said if the ABS-CBN board decides, he could still serve in a "consultative" capacity.

"I may be retired but I am not dead," he said.

He drew parallels between his career path and a line from a Khalil Gibran poem, which said: "Your children are not your children, they are the sons and daughter of life longing for itself."

"And so it is with ABS-CBN. I spent most of my life with you but you are not an extension of me," he said.

"Fly high, Kapamilya. Never be afraid to dream. Never be afraid to venture where no one has gone. I remain with you always," he said.

ABS-CBN elects Gabby Lopez as chairman emeritus, Mark Lopez as chairman



The ABS-CBN Corp board of directors on Thursday elected Eugenio "Gabby" Lopez III as chairman emeritus and Martin "Mark" Lopez as chairman.

Gabby Lopez, 65, is the second to hold the title of chairman emeritus after his late father, Eugenio "Geny" Lopez Jr, known fondly as "Kapitan." The family patriarch became chairman emeritus when his son succeeded him as chairman in 1997.

"As every athlete knows, there comes a time when inevitably it’s time to let go of the reins and allow others to take over. My father has always said ‘broadcasting’ is for the young. After all, today’s digital world is vastly difficult from the world I managed,” Gabby Lopez told an annual meeting of stockholders. He said that he “will not disappear into the woodwork.”

Gabby Lopez did not seek a fresh term as chairman as part of the company's succession planning.

He also served as CEO of ABS-CBN from 1997 to 2012 and is credited with steadily transforming the company from being the country’s biggest broadcasting network into being the leading media and entertainment company.

Under his leadership, ABS-CBN diversified into interactive and online media, international and domestic cable and satellite channels, broadband services, sports programming, consumer products and licensing, digital TV, and immersive experiences.

It was also under his leadership that ABS-CBN launched cable TV service SkyCable in 1992, global subscription channel The Filipino Channel in 1994, and video-on-demand streaming sites TFC.tv and iWant TV. He also pursued the launch of ABS-CBN TVplus, the country’s first-ever digital terrestrial television product.

"I accept this huge responsibility of carrying on the company’s vision of being in the service of the Filipino – using the blueprint of excellence and innovation set by Gabby. ABS-CBN has played an instrumental role in nation-building in the past 65 years," Mark Lopez said.

"We understand what the company means to the Filipino and this country, and we will take this to heart as we guide the company through its digital transformation," added the new chairman, who was identified as a successor as early as 5 years ago.

In his previous role as chief technology officer, Mark was responsible for setting the company’s strategic directions and ensuring operational excellence in information and communications, as well as technology broadcast engineering.

He spearheaded ABS-CBN’s system modernization, highlighted by the migration to the cloud and the automation of content creation and delivery to various media platforms. He was also responsible for ABS-CBN’s migration to HD and the completion of the digital terrestrial television infrastructure.

Prior to joining ABS-CBN, Mark spent 13 years at Meralco, the largest power distribution company in the country, where he eventually assumed the role of vice president and chief information officer. He also served as president of e-Meralco Ventures Inc until 2010.

Mark completed INSEAD’s general management program in 2017, received his Executive Masters in Business Administration degree from the Asian Institute of Management in 2003, and earned his bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Menlo College, California in 1994.

Barkada film of the season

Kim Chiu and Ryan Bang
Star Cinema’s latest offering “Da One That Ghost Away (DOTGA),” which opened yesterday in theaters nationwide, is touted as the “ultimate barkada film of the season.” It teams up for the first time Kim Chiu and “Pinoy Big Brother” alumnus Ryan Bang.

Carmel, a paranormal expert wannabe, teams up with best friend Jeje in forming a squad of ghostbusters in order to save the house of her grandmother from being sequestered. They are hired to exorcize the house (for malevolent ghosts) of a rich architect. The squad accepted the job with no hint they will be trapped inside the house.

“DOTGA” will showcase Kim’s versatility once more. She has proven herself to excel in almost every genre – from drama to hard core comedy to light romantic comedy to horror-comedy.

Also in the “DOTGA” cast is the popular tandem of Maymay Entrata and Edward Barber, and Pepe Herrera in his first major film role. Their co-actors are Enzo Pineda, Lassy Marquez, Moi Bien, Matet de Leon, Cai Cortez, Chokoleit and veteran actresses Marissa Delgado and Odette Khan.

Gabby Lopez 3rd retires as ABS-CBN chairman

EUGENIO “Gabby” Lopez 3rd has stepped down as chairman of the board of Lopez-led media giant ABS-CBN Corporation.

At the group’s annual stockholders’ meeting on Thursday, Lopez announced his move to retire, more than two decades after assuming the position in 1997.

“As every athlete knows, there comes a time when inevitably it’s time to let go of the reins and allow others to take over. My father has always said broadcasting is for the young. After all, today’s digital world is vastly different from the world I managed,” he said in his speech.

The 65-year-old Gabby Lopez, however, stressed that he “will not disappear into the woodwork.”


The broadcast network elected Gabby Lopez as chairman emeritus, the second to secure the position in the company’s history, and is set to remain as a director of the board.

He also served as chief executive officer of the group from 1997 to 2012.

Under Lopez’s leadership, ABS-CBN diversified into various successful ventures that included interactive and online media, international and domestic cable and satellite channels, broadband services, sports programming, consumer products and licensing, digital TV, and immersive experiences.

It was also under his leadership that ABS-CBN launched cable TV service SkyCable, global subscription channel The Filipino Channel, and video-on-demand streaming sites TFC.tv and iWant TV. He also pursued the launch of ABS-CBN TVplus, the country’s first-ever digital terrestrial television product.

Following Gabby’s retirement, Martin “Mark” Lopez, a cousin, was elected as the new chair of the entertainment network.

“I accept this huge responsibility of carrying on the company’s vision of being in the service of the Filipino – using the blueprint of excellence and innovation set by Gabby. ABS-CBN has played an instrumental role in nation-building in the past 65 years. We understand what the company means to the Filipino and this country, and we will take this to heart as we guide the company through its digital transformation,” he said.

In his previous role as chief technology officer, Mark was responsible for setting the company’s strategic directions and ensuring operational excellence in information and communications, as well as technology broadcast engineering.

He spearheaded ABS-CBN’s system modernization, highlighted by the migration to cloud and the automation of content creation and delivery to various media platforms. He was also responsible for ABS-CBN’s migration to HD and the completion of the digital terrestrial television (DTT) infrastructure. LISBET K. ESMAEL

TV5 shifts to sports, assures no cutback on employment

MANUEL V. Pangilinan-led TV5 Network Inc. guaranteed on Tuesday that there will be no retrenchment of its people as the company had repositioned itself as a predominantly sports and news channel.

In a sideline interview during ESPN5’s launching of “Live Boxing Month” for its sports events and shows lineup in May, TV5 President Vincent “Chot” Reyes told reporters they expect no more cuts in jobs within the organization, given the stability of their business at present.

“So, hopefully, this is it. There are no plans in the horizon; nothing in the near future because, like I said, I think, we have now a good complement of manpower to take us where we want,” he said.

Currently, TV5 employs about 700 people from almost double that number a couple of years ago.

“And it’s not like we were letting go of people. It’s just that because we’re no longer doing a lot of the entertainment stuff and all of it, so it’s a very natural process,” he added.

Since the third-leading television network in the country announced last year its transition from entertainment to sports channel, the top executive bared the encouraging feedback of the viewing public.

“As you know that response is really going to be measured by the revenue that’s generated. And, like I said, the kind of advertising money that we’re able to generate so far has been. We’ve been able to hit our targets,” he said.

Without divulging exact figures, Reyes said they have met their goals for airtime revenue and operating expenses in the first quarter of 2018.

He admitted, though, that some of their financial indicators “have been a little bit below” their targets, or just “a very small margin.”  Overall, the first three months remain to be “a very encouraging start,” according to the TV5 president, considering they are expecting to further cut their losses by half this year just to break even next year.

“The target by the end of 2019 [is that] we could hopefully achieve the breakeven already,” Reyes added. “We want to cut it by 50 percent from last year.”

The company’s net loss improved by 43 percent in 2017 compared to 2016.

While they are meeting their goals with current properties, he said that they are not complacent to rest on these achievements.

“We have to constantly come up with new properties to get a bigger slice of that pie the revenue. That’s why something like this is very important for us,” he noted, while referring to hard-hitting lineup of action-packed programming next month to the delight of Filipino fighting fans.

On May 13 ESPN5 will air live world-class pugilistic action from morning to late evening. Kicking off the festivities at 10 a.m. will be the live telecast of the world lightweight championship bout between Jorge Linares versus pound-for-pound great Vasyl Lomachenko.

Later at 3 p.m. is the “Survival Instinct,” a solid boxing card featuring the top fighters from Coach Joven Jimenez’s Survival Camp headlined by 2012 Rio Olympian Mark Anthony Barriga against Mexico’s Gabriel Mendoza in an International Boxing Federation minimumweight world title eliminator. The emerging winner of this fight will be the challenger to Japan’s Hiroto Kyoguchi, the reigning IBF minimumweight champion.

Also seeing action will be several top Pinoy fighters, namely, featherweight AJ “Bazooka” Banal, “Marvelous” Marvin Sonsona, and recent world-title challenger Genesis Servania. Boxing aficionados will be treated to some of sports history’s greatest knockouts wth ESPN5’s “Greatest Fights,” airing every Tuesday and Thursday.

Film and sports fans can see Sylvester Stallone’s Rocky 1 to 5 every Saturday. The exclusive matchup of IBF super-flyweight champion Jerwin Ancajas, who will defend his belt against countryman and mandatory challenger Jonas Sultan in Las Vegas, will also be aired on ESPN5.

Launched in October last year, ESPN5 is the cobranded channel between TV5 and ESPN. This forms part of the local broadcasting firm’s thrust leaning toward a sports network. Other business properties of the company include News5, DIgital5 and Studio5.

GMA Network’s income fell 30% in 2017 in absence of political ads

GMA Network Inc. said Tuesday net income fell 30 percent in 2017 in the absence of election-related spending.

The broadcast network said net income amounted to P2.55 billion last year, down from P3.64 billion in 2016 which received a boost from the national elections.

“Following a banner year in 2016 with the windfall of nearly P1.5 billion from the last national elections and compounded by contraction in the ad spend of major industry players this year, GMA Network and subsidiaries nevertheless managed to exceed prior year’s top line in terms of recurring sales,” GMA Network said.

The company said consolidated revenues also dropped 8 percent in 2017 to P15.34 billion from P16.67 billion in 2016, as airtime sales decreased 10 percent to  P13.60 billion from P15.13 billion.

GMA Network said the shortfall in airtime revenues from both television and radio operations was partly cushioned by the improvement in other revenue streams which grew 13 percent last year.

“Without the one-time boost from political advocacies and advertisements this year, nearly all airtime revenue-generating platforms’ top-line performance paled in comparison to 2016. Core channel, GMA-7 which comprised about 81 percent of the consolidated revenues registered the biggest drop among airtime-revenue platforms with a setback of 10 percent compared to last year,” the listed company said.

“Sans the impact of more than a billion worth of non-recurring political load, the channel stood flat against last year’s tally in terms of recurring placements,” it said.

Consolidated operating expenses rose 2 percent in 2017 to P11.81 billion from P11.59 billion in 2016. Production cost and talent fees which comprised 55 percent of total consolidated operating expenses amounted to P6.43 billion, up 1 percent from 2016.

GMA said that in terms of television ratings, it led its main competitor in nationwide urban TV ratings in 2017 with an average people audience share of 42.5 percent, ahead of ABS-CBN’s 36.8 percent.

Overall, the Network dominated NUTAM's list of top programs for 2017 with 20 out of 30 programs coming from GMA. Reigning supreme in the list is the well-loved Kapuso primetime series Encantadia, which became the number one program for two consecutive years.

Award-winning magazine program Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho grabbed the second spot as the most-watched Kapuso program for the year followed by the Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza-starrer Destined To Be Yours.

Joining them in the list of most watched Kapuso shows were "Pepito Manaloto," "Magpakailanman," "Full House Tonight," "Celebrity Bluff," "24 Oras," "Super Ma'am," "Mulawin vs Ravena," "Alyas Robin Hood," "Daig Kayo ng Lola Ko," and "All-Star Videoke."

Also included were "My Love From the Star," "Kambal Karibal," "Meant To Be," "I Heart Davao," "My Korean Jagiya," "Kapuso Movie Night," "Bubble Gang," "Saksi," "24 Oras Weekend," "Someone To Watch Over Me," "Hay Bahay!," "Wowowin," "Eat Bulaga," "Sunday PinaSaya," "Dear Uge," "Ika-6 Na Utos," "Legally Blind," "Impostora," "D'Originals," "Haplos," "Karelasyon," "Tadhana" and "Tsuperhero."

Notably, GMA's exclusive free TV telecast of Manny Pacquiao's last fight, dubbed the "Battle of Brisbane: Pacquiao vs Horn", was the most watched TV special for the year.

More Filipinos also tuned in to GMA’s live telecast of President Rodrigo Duterte’s second State of the Nation Address (SONA) last July 24. GMA Network’s “SONA 2017” became the most watched coverage nationwide with 37.4 percent people audience share; outranking ABS-CBN’s “Pangako ng Pagbabago: SONA 2017,” which only got 34.3 percent. GMA-7’s coverage registered an even bigger margin in Urban Luzon with 43.2 percent people audience share versus competition’s 26.2 percent.

The broadcast network said it once again “proved to be the Filipino viewers’ network of choice” as the GMA-7’s live telecast of the Miss Universe 2016 pageant on January 30 rated highest nationwide with a 57.1% people audience share, higher than ABS-CBN’s 28% and TV5’s 8.4%.

Lopez Holdings net income drops 36% in 2017

The net income of the Lopez family's holding firm drops to P4.225 billion from P6.557 billion, as earnings of both First Philippine Holdings and ABS-CBN slow in the absence of one-off gains

Lopez Holdings Corporation, the listed holding firm of the Lopez Group, saw its net income drop in 2017 as the absence of one-off gains and elections took a toll on earnings of its energy and media firms.

In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) on Tuesday, April 17, Lopez Holdings reported a net income attributable to the equity holders of the parent of P4.225 billion in 2017, down 36% from the P6.557 billion in 2016.

The firm attributed most of the decline to the "absence of one-off gains reported in 2016 and absent in 2017" as both its listed subsidiaries saw their profits drop.

As of end-2017, Lopez Holdings has a controlling stake of 46.5% in energy firm First Philippine Holdings Corporation (FPH) and 56.6% in media conglomerate ABS-CBN Corporation.

FPH saw its net income attributable to equity holders of the parent drop 41% to P5.845 billion from P9.933 billion in 2016.

FPH's net income in 2016 had been boosted, however, by one-off gains from the settlement of its unit First Philippine Electric Corporation (First Philec) in an arbitration case and liquidation of damages from the delay in construction of the San Gabriel gas-fired plant.

Excluding non-recurring gains, FPH's recurring net income was up 15% to P6.829 billion compared to P5.929 billion in 2016.

ABS-CBN, meanwhile, saw its net income drop by 10% to P3.164 billion from P3.525 billion in 2016, amid the absence of election-related advertising revenues.

Despite the drop, Lopez Holdings itself saw consolidated revenues increase 14% to P104.890 billion, which it attributed to the "higher sale of electricity from FPH unit First Gen Corporation."

REFLECTIONS ON PHILIPPINE BROADCAST MEDIA'S COVERAGE OF THE PAPAL VISIT SO FAR

Philippine broadcast media's coverage of the papal visit leaves much to be desired. It shows lack of depth and preparation and, even more important, a surprising lack of interest in this church leader who is probably the most engaging religious personality in recent times.

What should have media practitioners done? Here's a rundown of key tasks, if I were a broadcast journalist or TV program manager:

Have a better orientation from CBCP or the Papal Nuncio on the papal schedule, and the rationale of the papal activities. The schedule shows the priorities, and one ought to know the reason why the pope is doing each of them. What's the back story?

Read the pope's biography and his homilies, both as a pope and before he became pope. This is where Philippine media has utterly failed. The sermons clearly demonstrate the priorities and themes that has preoccupied this man, and they include love for the poor, the dangers of a self-referential church, the need to "go out" and bring Christ to the world, among others. The homilies between 2009 and 2013 have been published in a book, "Encountering Christ: Homilies, Letters, and Addresses of Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio," Scepter Pub. (US$13.95 from Amazon). There is even a Facebook page of the homilies. The titles of his recent sermons are fascinating, e.g., The Church is Not an Entrepreneur but a Mother; God Walks in History With Us and Adjusts Its Course. But clearly, no one in Philippine media bothered.

Brush up on liberation theology. This pope was heavily influenced by non-conventional Catholicism in Latin America (key thinkers: Leonardo Boff of Brazil, Gustavo Gutierrez of Peru) as well writings of the Christian Left (notably Karl Barth, Hans Kung, John Shelby Spong, Paul Tillich, and Cornel West). But obviously, Philiippine media practitioners are blissfully unaware of where Pope Francis' ideas are coming from and how they are nourished. Bumili lang kasi ng suka, naging journalist na!

Refresh on the key biblical teachings that are likely to be touched upon by the themes of Pope Francis' visit (Mercy and Compassion). This theme was announced way ahead of his arrival, which would have given journalists ample time to prepare.

Get updated on the trends in Catholicism, and where "winds are blowing" in the Vatican. This Pope represents the polar opposite of his predecessor, Pope Benedict XVI. Despite the official Catholic clergy's efforts to establish continuity between the two, they are vastly different in orientation and approach, Benedict being dogmatic and conservative and Francis being practical and inclusive. Nobody in Philippine media has discussed this thoughtfully, perhaps in deference to what CBCP wants to show.

Inform the messages of Pope Francis with demonstrations and examples from Philippine social reality. Again, this is very obvious, but no one is exploiting this rich lode of conversation.

What's wrong with Philippine journalism? OK, that's a rhetorical question, but really we deserve a much, much better and far more intelligent media. That's partly the reason why I wrote this note, because all my recommendations above are doable.  FYI, I just Googled all the above just now, so it really doesn't take much effort. The problem is the incredible level of intellectual laziness and insipidity.
