BEM (Bangkok Mass Transit System) reported record Q2/26 net profit of 1.012 billion baht, up 19 million year-over-year, driven by diversified revenue streams (tolls ~50%, rail fares ~40%). The company is also advancing its major growth driver: the Orange Line expansion (east segment), with the first train arriving in Thailand in late November 2026 for testing and planned operational launch by end of 2027. Full expansion including the west segment is targeted for 2030, projecting capacity to rise from 100,000 to 300,000 daily passengers. BEM has also cut financial costs by 9% through active debt management. This positions BEM as a stable defensive stock with strong cash flow and significant upside from infrastructure megaprojects.
