Financial Results for the Third Quarter of FY22.3 (Cumulative total for the nine-month period from April to December)

- 1 -

1. Qualitative Information on Quarterly Consolidated Financial Performance

Forward-looking statements in this document are based on assessments as of the end of the third quarter of FY2022/3.

From the first quarter of FY2022/3, the Company has applied the "Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition" (ASBJ Statement No. 29, March 31, 2020), etc.

Details are provided in "2. Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements and Major Notes, (3) Notes to Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements (Changes in Accounting Policies)" and "2. Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements and Major Notes, (3) Notes to Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements (Segment Information)."

(1) Qualitative Information on Consolidated Operating Results

In the nine month period ended December 31, 2021, due to the re-spread of the COVID-19 infection, a state of emergency was declared and extended multiple times. Domestic demand remained sluggish, centered on the service sector. Due to the expansion of vaccination programs, etc., there are expectations for progress with the control of COVID-19 and with economic activity. However, a new COVID-19 variant has emerged, and the timing, extent, etc., of a recovery in economic activity remain highly uncertain. Challenging conditions are expected to continue for the time being.

Looking at the Group's results, due to spread of the COVID-19 infection and to the state of emergency declarations, the railway and other businesses were affected by declining mobility demand and sluggish consumer spending. In these conditions, we worked in accordance with our recognition that our most important mission is safety in the railway business, which is our mainstay business. We steadily invested in railway safety, and in April 2021 we opened the Kumamoto Station Building, which is part of our implementation of strategic city-building initiatives in the regions around our bases. Furthermore, we rolled out a project under the title "Supporting Each Other Until It's Over," which expresses our wishes for the resolution of COVID-19 and the invigoration of Kyushu. We also implemented initiatives to promote "Local Community Invigoration," such as establishing a specialized regional fund. In addition, the future course of trends in the management environment is unclear. In preparation for changes in the management environment, we took steps to reduce costs, centered on the railway business. These steps included temporary leave for employees.

As a result, operating revenue was up 10.0% year on year, to ¥222,712 million; operating income was ¥2,784 million (compared with operating loss of ¥18,601 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year); EBITDA was ¥22,665 million (compared with EBITDA of ¥1,728 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year); ordinary income was ¥6,967 million (compared with ordinary loss of ¥16,153 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year); and net income attributable to owners of the parent was ¥9,214 million (compared with net loss attributable to owners of the parent of ¥11,662 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year).

(Note) EBITDA for the consolidated period under review is the numerical value of operating income plus the cost of depreciation (excluding the cost of depreciation related to lease assets held for the purpose of subleasing).
