Net income for 2023 was at Php6.81 billion, a 53.27% increase from the agency&rsquo;s Php4.44 billion profit in 2022.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial\">PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco said the higher earnings enabled the state gaming firm to increase its contribution to nation-building (CNB) to Php49.56 billion which is 43% higher than the Php34.67 billion CNB in the previous year, adding: &ldquo;Our robust revenue generation in 2023 allowed us to remit more funds to the government to finance various services, including funding for the Universal Health Care program, also known as Philhealth.&rdquo;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial\">Chairman Tengco also said that the lion&rsquo;s share of PAGCOR&rsquo;s CNB amounting to Php34.72 billion has been remitted to the National Treasury.

This was followed by the surging E-Games sector which includes e-bingos, e-games, specialty games and sports betting with Php21.66 billion or 29.62% of gaming income, while PAGCOR-run casinos chipped in Php15.12 billion or 20.68%.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial\">Offshore gaming operations brought in Php3.15 billion or 4.31% of PAGCOR&rsquo;s total gaming revenues.
