Dear Fellow Shareholders,
Welcome to the Annual Stockholders’ Meeting of Premiere Horizon Alliance Corporation (PHA). This gathering reminds us of the resilience of nature—how storms and earthquakes test the earth’s strength, yet our earth adapts and emerges stronger. In the same way, this past year has tested our resolve, but PHA has not only endured; we have transformed.
Under the dynamic leadership of our new Chairman, Steven Peña Sy, and with the unwavering support of our Board and dedicated team, we have navigated turbulent waters with discipline and foresight. Chairman Sy brings decades of experience in leading public
companies across Asia and a proven track record in hospitality ventures, thus positioning PHA for sustainable growth and innovation.
Our Board remains a cornerstone of strength and expertise, driven by unwavering dedication and hard work. We are honored to welcome two distinguished independent director nominees: Orlando S. Mercado, PhD, former Senator, Secretary of Defense, and Ambassador, whose governance and policy expertise will sharpen our strategic outlook; and Steven Cesar G. Virata, a veteran in aviation and management consulting, who bring invaluable insights in real estate, renewable energy, and human capital development.
To reinforce governance and operational excellence, we have appointed a new Corporate Secretary, engaged new external auditors, and strengthened our legal and finance teams with Atty. Abdussabor Sawadjaan, Jr. as Group Legal Counsel and Ma. Lea Baligod as Group Finance Controller. These strategic additions ensure robust compliance and financial stewardship as we move forward.
Despite headwinds, our financial position remains stable, and we are implementing measures to further strengthen our balance sheet and liquidity. Our goal is clear: to strategically position PHA among the top publicly-listed companies in governance and investor relations. We continue to uphold transparency in our plans of action, ensuring that every decision reflects accountability and long-term value creation for our shareholders.
Our subsidiaries continue to be engines of growth and innovation, delivering exceptional value across our portfolio. Goshen Land Capital Inc. (GLCI) has successfully completed the Stanford property in Baguio and proudly launched New Clark Garden Residences—an eight-building, low-rise condominium development poised to redefine modern living. This landmark project is on track for completion by December 2026, signaling our commitment to quality and progress.
In Palawan, we are advancing a bold vision in partnership with our mining arm, Premiere Georesources and Development Inc. (PGDI), and our real estate arm, West Palawan Premiere (WPP). Together, we are strategically aligning with government initiatives, including
the transformative Palawan Mega Ecozone Project. This initiative unlocks unprecedented opportunities in renewable energy, townships, airport infrastructure, tourism services, and sustainable development, positioning us at the forefront of regional growth.
Looking ahead, Public-Private Partnership ventures in the pipeline will drive critical progress in airport and port’s operations and management privatization, as well as power generation within San Vicente’s flagship tourism enterprise zone. These projects are not just investments, they are catalysts for sustainability, economic resilience, and a future where our companies can potentially lead in building vibrant communities and world-class destinations.
Our vision transcends sectors like real estate and mining. We are building a culture and legacy that positions PHA as a diversified enterprise with a strong entertainment and media arm. Our film library of nearly 400 titles with perpetual rights represents a unique strategic asset, opening doors to partnerships across entertainment and digital platforms. We are committed to unlocking the full potential of these holdings, driving renewed interest and creating long-term value for our stakeholders.
At PHA, success is defined by more than numbers, it’s about transforming strategic investments into resilient cash flows, sharpening our unit economics, and delivering ESG outcomes that matter. It’s about alignment among management, the Board, and our shareholders—so we move forward with one purpose. To our employees: your dedication and integrity power our progress. To the communities we serve: your trust is the foundation of our growth. And to our shareholders: your confidence and patience inspire us to pursue disciplined growth and create enduring value.
As we look ahead, challenges will arise, but with a strong leadership team, a clear roadmap, and your unwavering support, I am confident that PHA will not only weather the storms but thrive. We will remain pragmatic, accountable, and bold where it matters—transforming today’s efforts into tomorrow’s returns.
EUGENE T. TAN
President & CEO
