On December 19, 2022, Bloomberg published an article reporting, in relevant part, that "[t]he Philippines' Securities and Exchange Commission has launched an inquiry into the 48-billion peso ($866 million) capital spending budget overrun at PLDT Inc. that triggered a record plunge in the stock amid questions over its corporate governance and fiscal control." Per the article, "[t]he spending probe casts a stain on the finances and governance of PLDT, the country's biggest phone company by revenue and among the nation's most widely held stocks by foreign investors. It also raised questions about the management of PLDT Chairman Manuel Pangilinan, 76, who was also president and CEO until June 2021."

On this news, PLDT's stock price fell $6.35 per share, or 23.69%, to close at $20.46 per share on December 19, 2022.
