    Based on the original mission for railway companies, to provide r eliable and

    comfortable transportation services, we will focus on the development of theareas along the railway lines mainly through the provision of our rail service andthe completion of three major terminal projects by fiscal 2014. We will leverageour 100-year history and the rich cultural and tourism resources along the linesto develop businesses that enhance the convenience and attractiveness of theareas along the lines through the concerted effor ts of the whole group.To respond to changes in market conditions, such as the declining birthrate,aging populace and shrinking population, we will review the mechanismestablished during Japans period of economic growth and steadily promotestructural reform that will ensure adequate profits in all businesses, whileendeavoring to create businesses with new revenue bases by designing newgrowth strategies.In the group management, we will enhance strategic and management functionsand implement measures and reorganization efforts to improve the total strength

    of the group.

    Basic policy

    We have formulated a Kintetsu Group management plan with the planning periodstarting from fiscal 2010 when we commemorated the 100th anniversary of ourfoundation, through to fiscal 2014 when the Abenobashi Terminal Building isscheduled to begin operation. We consider this period as the foundationstrengthening period, during which we will be steadily implementing variousprojects, achieving the desired results and promoting structural reform.Additionally, we will strive to create new businesses for the establishment of newrevenue bases.

    Period of the management plan and its position

    We will utilize the total strength of the Kintetsu Group to promote businesses thatsupport the people who live along our railway lines and to develop new servicesthat match their lifecycle and lifestyle.Additionally, we will explore the possibilities of strengthening our business basethrough regional vitalization along the railway lines and through projects that useour idle assets effectively. Specifically, we decided to enter into the field ofagriculture; by the end of July 2012, we started to produce quality, safe andreliable farm produce in our plant factory with 100% ar tificial lighting and ingreenhouses. Moreover, we make efforts toward energy generation and, as partof the effort, we are taking part in the large-scale photovoltaic power generation(mega solar) project, taking advantage of the feed-in tari ff (FIT) system forrenewable energy. With this, we st arted our power generation business inSeptember 2013. We are now striving to address local revitalization throughimplementation of a business model for supplying power to nearby evacuationcenters in times of disaster by utilizing our mega solar system.

    Promotion of business creation

    We must respond quickly and flexibly to the dramatically changing economic and

    social environment that includes declining birthrate and aging as well asshrinking population. To this end, we have established a new business strategycommittee under the direct control of the president to further enhance themanagement system and promote fundamental structural r eform in allbusinesses, and have developed a system to create new businesses.

    Main measures

    Management Plan

    With safety as prerequisite, we are making progress in the construction of an efficient operating structure through software-oriented improvements, with the aim ofsecuring appropriate profit even under the influence of flagging demand as well as flexibly responding to the current tr ansportation situation and ever-diversifyingcustomer needs.Specifically, in March 2012, we changed our train operation schedule with the primary objective of optimizing transportation operations based on the current utilizationstatus and demand trends while reorganizing and rationalizing in areas including stations, train operations and facilities. In the future, we will strive to continuouslyimplement the above mentioned streamlining measures. We are also making progress in the restructuring of our business policies from various aspect s, includingcomplete makeover of Sakura Liner, Vista Car and Ise-Shima Liner as part of a brush-up on our limited express services, and the promotion of tourism servicesthat are closely linked to local players. In particular, for the vitaliza tion of the Ise-Shima area, where the Ise Jingu Shrine conducted Jingu Shikinen Sengu (theceremony of transferring a deity to a new shrine building once within a prescribed number of years) in 2013, we offer the unprecedented experience of travelling on therailroads with The Shimakaze Sightseeing Limited Express, which star ted operation in March of the same year.
