Pagcor revenues plunge 23% in third quarter
Original: Pagcor revenues plunge 23% in Q3 as economic pressures weigh on gambling https:// fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.rapp ler.com
The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation reported a 23% drop in revenues for the third quarter of 2026. The state gaming regulator and operator attributed the decline to economic pressures that are curbing consumer gambling spending across the country. The figures point to Filipinos cutting back on discretionary spending amid rising living costs, raising questions about the outlook for the gaming sector and government revenues derived from it.
Why now: The sharp revenue decline signals weakening consumer spending in the Philippines and potential impacts on state income.
