JR Kyushu Group has announced a new three-year mid-term management plan aimed at strengthening its core transport services and expanding business across multiple sectors. Key goals include a 37% increase in operating profit from transport services and consolidated targets of ¥530 billion in revenue and ¥71 billion in operating profit by FY2027. The strategy emphasizes expanded autonomous rail operations, digital innovation, fare restructuring, and a review of underutilized local lines such as the Ibusuki-Makurazaki and Nichinan routes. In parallel, the company will pursue regional revitalization initiatives in collaboration with municipalities and step up merger and acquisition activities to enhance inter-business synergies. Efforts to counter regional population decline and improve service sustainability form a central part of the plan. Source: JR Kyushu
