Shinki Bus Co.,Ltd. expects consolidated net income of ¥2.4 billion for the fiscal year ending March 2027, ¥200 million above its previous forecast. The annual dividend will be increased by ¥5 to ¥50.
Shinki Bus Co.,Ltd. announced consolidated net income of ¥2.4 billion for the fiscal year ending March 2027. This is expected to be ¥200 million above its previous forecast, with the company citing the launch of a new express bus route connecting Kobe Airport and Minami, Osaka, among the factors driving higher revenue.
Revenue is expected to be ¥58 billion and operating income ¥3.5 billion, with both figures revised upward from the previous fiscal year. Revenue is expected to reach a record high for the fourth consecutive fiscal year.
For the six months ended September 2026, consolidated revenue was ¥26.3 billion and net income was ¥217 million. The company offset the loss of Expo-related demand through more frequent route bus services and an increase in extra buses in Kobe's waterfront area, although higher material costs weighed on results.
The dividend will be ¥50, an increase of ¥5 from the previous plan.
