We are proud to note that we remain the undisputed market leader in the Philippines with a 36% market Rising to the Challenge share as of 2014–more than the combined market share of two of our closest competitors. We ended the year with better-than-expected results as we posted a consolidated net income of 3 billion. While the drop in oil prices put pressure on our margins, efforts to increase sales volumes, the completion of strategic programs, and our disciplined approach to risk management moderated its impact.
