Idinetalye ni GMA Network Chairman and CEO Atty. Felipe Gozon at ng iba pang Kapuso executives ang expansion na kasalukuyang ginagawa ng GMA-7.
Noong Hunyo, binuksan nila ang isang originating station sa Ilocos, samantalang ngayong Agosto ay naganap ang launching ng isa pa nilang originating station sa Bicol.
“These two stations alone cost us more than P200 million. The cost in Ilocos is not the same as Bicol… There is no question that we have the money to do that,” ani Atty. Gozon sa media briefing na naganap sa 16th floor boardroom ng GMA Network noong Agosto 22.
Ayon sa chief financial officer ng GMA-7, na si Mr. Felipe Yalong, nag-allocate sila ng budget na P160 million para sa Bicol project at P115 million para sa Ilocos project.

Dumalo rin sa media briefing sina Mr. Gilberto Duavit Jr., president and COO; Rikki Escudero, vice president for regional TV; at Engineer Elvis Ancheta, vice president of the transmission regional engineering department.
THE NEGOTIATION. Sa kabilang banda, kinumpirma ni Atty. Gozon na ongoing pa rin ang negosasyon sa pagitan nila ng kampo ni Manny V. Pangilinan, chairman ng rival network na TV5.
Matutuloy ba ang pagbili ni Manny V. Pangilinan—o mas kilala bilang MVP—sa GMA-7?
“We honestly do not know,” sagot ni Atty. Gozon.
Paliwanag niya, “It can go either way because there are still many outstanding issues to be resolved.
"We are continuing to talk, but beyond that, I cannot say anything anymore.
"Whether we will reach an agreement or not, it is not for me alone to say.”
Kung matutuloy man ang naturang deal, paano ito makakaapekto sa market value ng Kapuso Network?
“You better ask the buyer since we would no longer be in control,” sagot ni Atty. Gozon.
Sa kasalukuyan, ang pamilya ng mga Gozon, Duavit, at Jimenez ang majority owners ng GMA-7.
