Yes2Health Broadcasting Network (Y2HBN) is a Philippine media company with headquarters at Tagum City , Davao del Norte. Y2H operates FM radio stations in the country under the XFM and Solid FM brands.[1]

History

[edit]

The company began operations in 2021 when naturopathy doctor and Palawan-born entrepreneur Remelito Uy acquired the Xanthone Plus line of herbal products from the eponymous broadcast firm managed by his elder brother Ramel. Prior to the launch of Y2H's own radio operations, it produced blocktime programs discussing alternative medicine on various third-party AM and FM stations.

XFM began broadcasts on February 28, 2022 as a local entity when a group of mediamen led by Uy took over the operations of RMCBC-owned DXDE-FM in Tagum City. This formed the nucleus of the network until it transferred its broadcasting operations to Southern Broadcasting Network-owned DXSS-FM in Davao City later that year. After garnering initial success, XFM expanded into various provincial markets across the country by the use of airtime lease agreements. [2][3][4]

Development

[edit]

XFM News Nationwide was first launched on April 8, 2024 across the network, replacing each station's local midday edition of XPress Balita. The newscast was originally aired at 12:30 pm with 104.7 XFM Palawan's Pedy Bautista Sabando and Aizy Pacaldo as its first anchors. Former 103.1 Brigada News FM anchor-reporter Gilbert Basio served as regular relief presenter for Sabando.

In January 2025, XFM News Nationwide was moved to 12:00 pm due to the decision of upper management to place The Secret of Health at the 12:30 pm slot as the newscast's lead-out program. Pedy Bautista Sabando would depart the program by March 2025 as he ran and ultimately won as Mayor of Roxas, Palawan in the May 12, 2025 midterm elections. Aizy Pacaldo also went on maternity leave the same month, leaving Basio as sole reliever and eventual permanent main anchor until June 18th when she returned as co-anchor.

XFM Palawan continued production of the newscast until July 2, 2025 as its duties were transferred to the newly-launched 99.5 XFM Mega Manila the next day. Buddy Oberas and Kim Mangunay (both formerly of Abante Radyo 1494 served as co-anchors until Mangunay departed XFM on January 30, 2026 to concentrate on her family. Bryan de Paz became her full-time replacememt effective February 2, 2026
