Kantar Media uses a nationwide panel size of 2,609 urban and rural homes that represent 100% of the total Philippine TV viewing population, while the other ratings data supplier AGB Nielsen reportedly has only 1,980 homes based solely in urban areas that represent only 57% of the Philippine TV viewing population.
ABS-CBN also kept its stronghold of the primetime block (6PM-12NN) despite GMA’s new offerings, with a recorded audience share of 47%, higher by 14 points than GMA’s 33%. Primetime is the most important timeblock when most Filipinos watch TV and advertisers put a larger chunk of their investment in to reach more consumers efficiently.
ABS-CBN also dominated other key territories in terms of total day viewership. It earned an average audience share of 43% vs GMA’s 37% in Balance Luzon (areas in Luzon outside Mega Manila); 50% vs GMA’s 28% in the Visayas; and 54% vs GMA’s 25% in Mindanao.
