Gaming firm DigiPlus Interactive Corp. has announced a ₱6-billion share buyback program, a move it says reflects strong financial health and reinforces its long-term commitment to shareholder value.
Approved by the board and effective over a 12-month period (renewable upon board approval), the repurchase will be funded by internally generated cash flows.
“This program demonstrates our firm confidence in DigiPlus’ long-term growth and solid fundamentals,” said chairman Eusebio Tanco, adding that the move aims to “deliver sustainable returns for shareholders while remaining well-positioned to pursue expansion and innovation.”
The company emphasized its commitment to disciplined capital management amid continued investments in technology and growth, including its upcoming entry into the Brazilian gaming market.
DigiPlus is set to launch operations in Brazil this September, tapping into a US$4.6-billion iGaming market—more than twice the size of the Philippines. Its offerings will include live streamed games, slots, and exclusive digital content tailored to Brazilian players. A local team is already in place, and the firm recently migrated its tech infrastructure to Amazon Web Services (AWS) to support international operations.
“Our entry into Brazil is part of our strategic expansion program to usher DigiPlus’ next phase of growth,” Tanco said.
