Nagoya Railroad Co., Ltd. ( (JP:9048) ) just unveiled an update.

Nagoya Railroad reported consolidated operating revenues of ¥691.6 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, essentially flat year on year, while operating income fell 14.0% to ¥36.2 billion and profit attributable to owners of the parent dropped 39.2% to ¥23.0 billion. Despite higher total assets and net assets, profitability metrics such as return on equity and operating margin declined, reflecting weaker earnings and lower equity-method contributions.

In line with its shareholder return policy, Nagoya Railroad raised its year-end dividend to ¥40 per share for FY2026 and plans a further increase to ¥60 in FY2027, signaling confidence in future earnings capacity despite current profit pressure.
