NLEX Corp. reported an 18 percent increase in net income in 2025, reaching ₱14.28 billion from ₱12.07 billion in 2024, driven by higher toll collections and better cost management.
Toll revenues rose 18 percent to ₱29.75 billion, supported by increased traffic and the implementation of previously delayed toll rate adjustments. Most of the revenue came from NLEX (77 percent), followed by SCTEX (18 percent) and the NLEX Connector (5 percent).
Traffic volumes also grew. NLEX recorded an average of 355,561 vehicles per day, while SCTEX saw 81,528 daily entries—both slightly higher than 2024 levels. The NLEX Connector posted 21,382 daily vehicles, up 69 percent since partial operations began in August 2023.
Other income from toll service facilities reached ₱141 million, slightly lower than the ₱150 million recorded the previous year.
Meanwhile, the company’s cost of services increased by 20 percent to ₱10.08 billion. This was mainly due to higher concession fees, maintenance work, and operating expenses, as well as increased amortization tied to heavier road usage.
NLEX spans about 105 kilometers and remains a key transport link connecting Metro Manila to Central and Northern Luzon.
