Nippon Express Holdings has decided to sell the land and buildings of a large logistics center in Koto Ward, Tokyo, owned by its subsidiary Nippon Express Co., Ltd., for approximately ¥100 billion, recognizing an estimated gain on sale of about ¥72 billion in its IFRS-based results for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The buyer, ML Estate Company, Limited, is a real estate-focused entity fully owned by Mizuho Leasing, and the transaction is structured with a leaseback arrangement so that logistics operations at the site can continue, keeping the impact on future business performance limited. The sale forms part of Nippon Express Holdings’ broader strategy to boost ROE and capital profitability by replacing low-return real estate with higher-yielding assets and freeing up cash for growth investments; the expected gain has already been factored into the company’s current earnings forecast.
