  • I will begin by explaining our financial results for the first nine months of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026.

  • Operating revenue increased ¥38.1 billion year on year to

    ¥360.0 billion. This was mainly due to higher railway transportation revenues following fare and charge revisions, as well as increased real estate sales revenue from condominium sales and the sale of owned properties.

  • Operating income rose ¥13.0 billion year on year to ¥62.7

    billion, reflecting the increase in operating revenue.

    EBITDA also increased ¥14.1 billion year on year, reaching

    ¥91.2 billion.

  • Net income attributable to owners of the parent grew ¥3.4 billion year on year to ¥40.8 billion, mainly due to the increase in operating income.

  • Next, I will explain our full-year performance forecasts and dividend forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. Please turn to slide 9.

  • Next, I will explain the inbound situation in the railway business.

  • Inbound revenue as a whole progressed largely in line with expectations and remained above the level of the previous year.

  • Looking at the breakdown, sales of the JR-KYUSHU RAIL PASS—which was repriced in April last year—were at the same level as the previous year, while sales of English-language tickets exceeded the year-ago level.

  • Although usage of the JR-KYUSHU RAIL PASS by customers from China has declined since December due to travel advisories issued by the Chinese government, usage of regular tickets has increased. As a result, we believe the overall impact on inbound revenue has been limited.

  • Next, I will discuss the Real Estate and Hotels segment.

  • First, in the real estate leasing business, tenant sales at station buildings progressed slightly above the year-ago level. Operating revenue exceeded the previous year and progressed steadily against expectations, supported by increased rental income at station buildings and contributions from newly operational assets, primarily rental apartments.

  • Nintendo FUKUOKA, which opened in November last year, has been very well received by customers and has made a strong start, significantly exceeding initial expectations.

  • Please turn to the next slide.

    Real Estate and Hotels Segment: Real Estate Leasing Business

    • Station building tenant sales in Q3 FY26.3 exceeded the plan overall, continuing from Q2, driven by a recovery trend in duty-free sales at JR Hakata City.

(1) Realize Sustainable Mobility Services

JR Kyushu places importance on the stable provision of return to shareholders over the long term. Over the period up to FY2028.3, we will aim for a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 35% or higher and flexibly implement share repurchases.

Management base

Key strategies

  • In April, we launched the Medium-Term Business Plan 2025-2027, designating this as a period for achieving sustainable growth over the long term, and we are advancing three key strategies.

  • While we plan to continue pursuing these key strategies in principle, we are currently reviewing and refining the numerical targets, cash allocation, and financial soundness of the plan. This review takes into account the current economic environment, performance in the current fiscal year, and business trends in each segment from the next fiscal year onward.

  • Although we have cancelled the project utilizing the space above the tracks at Hakata Station, we will continue to deepen our consideration of development projects beyond the current medium-term plan period, including redevelopment of the site of the former Kyushu University Hakozaki Campus.

  • Next, I will explain progress on the key strategies. Please turn to the next slide.

    Key Strategy (1) Realize Sustainable Mobility Services: Future Railway Project/ Increase in Value Provided to Customers
    • We have fully introduced GOA* 2.0 self-driving trains. Leveraging the technology and expertise we have gained, we aim to expand areas for GOA 2.5 self-driving trains going forward. *GOA = Grades of Automation

    • We launched a new service that allows customers to check real-time information on train operations on smartphones and other devices. We will promote initiatives to enhance customer satisfaction, funded by increased revenue from the fare revision.

      Promotion of autonomous driving

      • By feeding back GOA 2.0 driverless operation

        technologies into GOA 2.5 driverless operation, we will realize measures such as minimizing investment in ground facilities.

        An operating format in which drivers are on board at the front of the train to perform manual interventions and other operations depending on the situation.

        GOA 2.5

        An operating format in which crew members of self-driving trains (staff with in-house qualifications other than the driver) are on board at the front of the train to perform emergency stop operations, etc.

        By end of 2027 (target)

        Kagoshima Main Line: Mojiko–Arao Nippo Main Line: Kokura–Usa

        Gradually expanding the scope of autonomous driving operations

        Kagoshima Main Line: Mojiko–Kokura Nippo Main Line: Kokura–Usa

        Provision of train operation information via a next-generation passenger information system
        • Starting January 26, we began providing train operation

      information via “JR Kyushu Train Navi” on a web browser

      app in selected sections.

      Functions of this service

      ① Train timetables and platforms ③ Real-time train location

      ② Confirmation of stopping stations ④ Train delay and service

      change information

28

  • First, I will explain initiatives aimed at realizing sustainable mobility services.

  • First, as part of the Future Railway Project, we are promoting the expansion of operations involving self-driving trains.

  • We have fully introduced GOA 2.0 self-driving trains, which had previously been in the demonstration phase, and will sequentially expand the applicable sections. In addition, we aim to expand the scale of GOA 2.5 self-driving trains—an even more advanced level—by the end of 2027.

  • Second, as an initiative to enhance the value provided to customers using funds generated by fare and charge revisions, we have launched a next-generation guidance system that provides train operation information.

  • Through “JR Kyushu Train Navi,” customers can access multiple types of information—such as about train delays and platform changes at each station—in real time via a web browser.

  • Please turn to the next slide.

    Key Strategy (2) City Building through Enhanced Collaboration among

    Businesses: Launch of a New Membership Tier Service

    • To cultivate loyal customers who use multiple services across the Group, we will launch a new membershiptier service “JR KYUPO Waku Waku Program” on April 1, 2026.
    • We aim to create a conglomerate premium by strengthening inter-business collaboration centered on JR KYUPO.

    Building loyal customers
    • We will expand the scope of the service to all "JR Kyushu Web Members" and launch the new membership tier service.

    • Offer attractive benefits based on membership rank and personalized service proposals. Drive customer loyalty through mutual customer referrals between business segments.

    • Create a Conglomerate Premium by increasing the spending per customer and the number of services used.

    • Complimentary unlimited railway pass

    • Complimentary pair hotel stay invitation voucher

    • Points can be redeemed for station building premium coupons

    • Higher point accrual rate, etc.

    ③Reach Diamond Rank

    ②Use multiple services while enjoying benefits corresponding to each membership rank

    Key Strategy (2) City Building through Enhanced Collaboration among

    Businesses: Expansion of the Condominium Sales Business

    • The MJR brand has established a top-class position in Kyushu. We expect to continue supplying

      housing units steadily going forward.

    • Sales progress for properties currently on the market has also been strong. We have a development pipeline including projects near stations and along railway lines, as well as in major cities across Kyushu.

    Main development pipeline going forward (based on completion timing)

  • Next, I will explain our condominium sales business.

  • Since launching the business in 1989, our condominium brand, MJR, has established a top-class brand position in the Kyushu area, with more than 10,000 units supplied to date.

  • Even under an inflationary environment, sales of properties currently on the market have remained strong. In addition, we maintain a development pipeline extending several years into the future, and we expect to continue supplying housing units steadily.

  • By contributing to population growth around stations and along railway lines throughout Kyushu, we are also working to enhance regional attractiveness and contribute to building cities where people want to live, work, and visit.
