Manila, Philippines—Construction giant EEI Corporation recently marked its 50th year as a listed company at the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE). At the bell-ringing ceremony, the PSE recognized its legacy as one of the preeminent construction companies to participate in the equity markets through its public listing.
“This half a century of our presence in the stock exchange shows our unwavering commitment and our belief in transparent and good governance, a disciplined approach in financial management and our enduring faith in our financial system in expanding and improving access to capital that supports business enterprises and investments from a broad range of public and institutional investors,” said EEI Corporation President and CEO Henry D. Antonio.
“Going by EEI Corporation's history, I believe the company's endurance and success can be attributed to its strong commitment to its people, a robust corporate governance, strategic partnership, and a resolute focus on infrastructure projects that drive the nation's growth and development,” said PSE Director Edgardo G. Lacson.
“History has shown EEI successfully entering and conquering new industries in the past, and I am firmly confident that it will not only repeat its success; it will reaffirm its enduring strength.”
Founded in 1931, EEI Corporation has been a cornerstone of the country’s construction and engineering sector for 94 years. Over the years, it has helped shape the development of Philippine infrastructure and has enabled its continuous growth and innovation. Since then, the company has diversified its portfolio and now actively explores opportunities in energy, real estate, and manpower business.
Among its landmark projects are the Metro Manila Subway, the Malolos-Clark Railway, and the Cavitex-Callax Link. It is also set to undertake the PHP15.7-billion Philippine International Exhibition Center (PIEC) project to rise Pasay City, which is expected to be the largest convention center in Southeast Asia.
Antonio said that the company looks to the future with an eye to further expand its role in nation-building and uplifting the lives of millions of Filipinos. The construction company promises to continue supporting the development of infrastructure, energy, property, and other developments that spur economic growth.
