Nishi-Nippon Railroad (Nishitetsu) reported higher revenue and profit for the fiscal year ending March 2026, supported by strong performance from the One Fukuoka Building complex in Tenjin and growth in international logistics. Operating revenue rose 6.9% from the previous year to Y474.2 billion, marking a second consecutive annual increase. Operating profit climbed 13.3% to a record Y30.2 billion. The company said leasing and hotel operations at the One Fukuoka Building, which opened in April 2025, contributed significantly to earnings. International logistics demand also expanded during the period. Railway operations posted revenue growth as passenger demand recovered, while bus services were affected by reduced schedules. However, highway bus demand improved due to inbound tourism, resulting in overall growth for the bus division. Source: KBC News / Nishitetsu Group
