JR Kyushu has announced an increase in both revenue and profit for the fiscal year 2023, with revenue up 9.7% to 420.4 billion yen and profits rising 23.4% to 38.4 billion yen. This financial recovery follows a rebound in user numbers post-pandemic and despite ongoing disruptions on the Higo Line due to previous flooding. Looking forward, JR Kyushu predicts further increases in revenue and profits. CEO Yoji Furumiya emphasized plans to diversify income sources, especially as ticket sales for regular commuters continue to underperform. Source: JR Kyushu / NHK
