“Sa pagdating ng Coco Martin’s Sigabo sa TV5, at sa paglawak ng reach ng Face to Face with Ate Koring, mas maraming Pilipino ang makakapag-enjoy sa mga programang nagbibigay-aliw at inspirasyon,” he added.

The Kapatid network also underscored the two media organizations’ commitment to “[create] meaningful connections with audiences through stories that inform, entertain, and bring Filipinos together.”

ABS-CBN and TV5 had inked a five-year content agreement in 2023, although the latter terminated the contract in 2025 and cited the former’s failure to pay its financial obligations.

“We acknowledge our obligations to TV5 and are doing everything we can to address these payments. We have sought additional time to resolve this matter and are working urgently within the thirty-day period we have been given,” the Kapamilya network said at the time.

“While this timeline is challenging given our current circumstances, we are committed to finding a way to fulfill our obligations—not only to TV5 but to all our partners and stakeholders. We remain open to fair and reasonable solutions that recognize the extraordinary circumstances our company has faced,” it added.
