Jollibee Group Reports Record Q4 Operating Income; Posts Strong Full-Year 2025 Results

Q4 operating income rises 41.9% year-on-year to Php4.1 billion; full-year system-wide sales up 16.6%

METRO MANILA, PHILIPPINES - Media OutReach Newswire - 21 April 2026 – Jollibee Foods Corporation (PSE: JFC), also known as the Jollibee Group ("JFC" or the "Group"), reported strong full-year 2025 performance, led by record fourth-quarter operating income of Php4.1 billion (up 41.9% year-on-year) and 16.6% full-year system-wide sales (SWS) growth, driven by continued strength across key Asian markets and its broader international platform.

In 2025, the Jollibee Group strengthened its position across Asia while expanding its international footprint, with the international business delivering 27.0% SWS growth for the year. Key Asian markets, including Vietnam—Jollibee's largest international market by store count for the Jollibee brand—delivered strong performance alongside continued network expansion.

The Group also recorded strong momentum in its coffee and tea segment, with SWS increasing by 44.9% for the full year, supporting diversification of growth drivers and continued store network development.

In Hong Kong, Jollibee continued to strengthen its relevance among consumers, earning recognition as My Favourite Fast-Food Shop at the U Food Favourite Food Awards 2025—reflecting its growing appeal among mainstream local customers.

In Singapore, the Group further expanded its footprint through Jollibee, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, and Tim Ho Wan, with 29, 79, and 9 stores, respectively, as of end-2025. Jollibee Singapore was named the No. 1 Fast Food Chain for Customer Service by The Straits Times, while Tim Ho Wan refreshed its flagship Marina Bay Sands store with a more dim sum-centric menu and new offerings at accessible price points—both reinforcing stronger patronage from mainstream local customers alongside its core base.

This sustained performance across markets contributed to the Group's overall results, with SWS increasing by 16.6% for the full year across its Philippine and international businesses.

The Jollibee Group closed 2025 with its highest fourth-quarter operating income on record, increasing by 41.9% year-on-year.

Ernesto Tanmantiong, Global Chief Executive Officer of JFC, shared the following statement on JFC's performance: "I'm proud of how our teams performed in 2025. We finished the year with record fourth-quarter operating income—up 41.9% year-on-year—reflecting both strong sales momentum and better operating leverage.

For the full year, we delivered 16.6% system-wide sales growth across our Philippine and international businesses. Coffee and tea continued to build scale with 44.9% system-wide sales growth, and our international business grew system-wide sales by 27.0% as we continued to expand with discipline across our key markets.

In particular, the Jollibee brand sustained strong momentum in Vietnam, its largest international market by store count, supported by continued customer demand and ongoing network expansion.

We opened 1,126 stores during the year, the most in our company's history, which strengthens our runway for sustained growth. Looking ahead to 2026, our priorities remain clear: profitable growth, operational excellence, and consistent value creation for our shareholders and other stakeholders."
