TOKYO, Feb 04 (Pulse News Wire) – Tobu Railway CO.,LTD. (9001.T) reported a 17% increase in consolidated revenue to ¥4,584 billion for the nine months ended December 2025, driven by strong performances across its railway, travel, hotel, and department store segments.
However, operating profit declined by 23% to ¥582 billion due to higher maintenance costs and one-time expenses related to the issuance of New Toei Cards.

Additionally, the board approved a dividend hike, setting the interim dividend for the fiscal year at ¥20 per share compared to ¥18 last year, reflecting improved profitability. In detail, the transportation sector saw robust growth in rail and bus-taxis services, while leisure activities such as tourism, hotels, and Skytree operations also posted significant gains. Notably, the real estate division experienced a 21% rise in revenue to ¥582 billion, primarily attributed to increased sales in town developments and condominiums.
