The latest announcement is out from Odakyu Electric Railway Co ( (JP:9007) ).

Odakyu Electric Railway reported that in February of FY3/2026 its railway business continued to see modest year-on-year growth in passenger volumes and transport revenue, driven by both work commuters and non-commuter traffic, while school commuter numbers were softer. Non-commuter transport revenue and total fare income rose, indicating resilient leisure and general travel demand even as growth rates moderated.

In contrast, department store transaction values declined overall versus a year earlier despite some store-specific strength, underlining structural pressures on bricks-and-mortar retail, while existing-store sales at Odakyu Shoji’s store division showed steady year-on-year gains. Hotel occupancy remained generally high at many Hakone and related properties but was down overall, partly due to inspections, repairs and the renovation-related closure of Hakone Highland Hotel, illustrating a mixed hospitality picture that could affect tourism-linked earnings.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:9007) stock is a Buy with a Yen1953.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Odakyu Electric Railway Co stock, see the JP:9007 Stock Forecast page.
