Philippine exports posted a modest acceleration in February 2026, with year-over-year growth rising to 8.0%, up slightly from 7.9% in January 2026. The latest data, updated on 27 March 2026, indicate a continued positive momentum in the country’s external sector.
Both figures are measured on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s performance with the same month a year earlier. The February uptick, though marginal, suggests that export activity is holding steady and improving slightly after the solid gain recorded at the start of the year in January. Investors and policymakers will be watching upcoming releases to see whether this gradual strengthening in export growth can be sustained in the coming months.
