Beijing-Shanghai HSR reported first-half 2026 revenue of CNY 21.84 billion, up 3.94 percent year over year, while Beijing-Shanghai HSR stock was trading at CNY 4.81 on the Shanghai Stock Exchange on October 9, 2026. The company also delivered CNY 6.77 billion in net profit, an increase of 7.21 percent from the same period a year earlier, according to 163.com.
Profit growth outpaced revenue
The first-half figures show a wider earnings increase than revenue growth. Net profit attributable to shareholders reached CNY 6.77 billion, compared with revenue growth of 3.94 percent, giving the result a stronger profit mix than the top-line change alone suggests.
Second-quarter revenue was CNY 11.28 billion and net profit was CNY 3.63 billion, with quarterly revenue up 4.56 percent and net profit up 8.25 percent year over year, according to Stockstar. The comparison matters because quarterly profit growth exceeded the half-year rate of 7.21 percent.
Three operating steps shaped 2026
On January 26, 2026, the company expanded its 350-kilometer benchmark service to 87 trains, adding 21 trains and reducing the minimum peak interval to 3 minutes, according to 163.com. In May 2026, published fares on the Beijing-Shanghai and Hefei-Bengbu high-speed lines rose by 20 percent, while actual prices remained subject to demand, time and seat-class discounts.

On October 14, 2026, Beijing-Shanghai HSR is scheduled to hold its 2026 half-year performance meeting from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., according to Stockstar. The event gives investors a dated setting for management discussion of passenger demand, fare flexibility and network-service revenue.
