For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, Sotetsu Holdings reported essentially flat operating revenue of ¥221.8 billion, but saw profitability decline, with operating profit down 8.0% to ¥30.4 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent falling 11.6% to ¥20.4 billion, reflecting a moderation from the strong rebound seen in the previous year.
