While a concealment issue with the Queen Beetle high-speed ferry led to its suspension until year-end, JR Kyushu CEO Y\u014dji Furumiya stated that the impact on overall financial results would be minor. Although net profit declined due to reduced stock sales, the company remains optimistic about future growth, projecting a 9.8% increase in net profit for the full fiscal year. <\/span><b>Source: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jrkyushu.co.jp\/news\/__icsFiles\/afieldfile\/2024\/11\/06\/241106_financial_results_2Q.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">JR Kyushu<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-157908\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fnn_jr-kyushu-local-train_2023_WEB.jpeg?resize=1400%2C1050&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"JR Kyushu Reports 10% Profit Gain, Despite Ferry Suspension\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1050\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fnn_jr-kyushu-local-train_2023_WEB.jpeg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fnn_jr-kyushu-local-train_2023_WEB.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fnn_jr-kyushu-local-train_2023_WEB.jpeg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fnn_jr-kyushu-local-train_2023_WEB.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
