*1 Operating revenue does not include consumption tax, etc.

*2 The Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition, etc., has been applied since the beginning of FY2021.

*3 On October 1, 2017 we conducted a reverse stock, split replacing every five ordinary shares with one share. We calculated net assets and basic earnings per share by assuming that this reverse stock split occurred at the beginning of FY2016.

*4 EBITDA = Operating income + Depreciation and amortizationHowever, the operating income from FY2017 onward includes dividend income.

*5 This includes a commemorative dividend of 1 yen.

*6 Since we conducted a reverse stock split, replacing every five ordinary shares with one share, on October 1, 2017, this shows the total for the interim dividend per share of 3 yen before the reverse stock split and the year-end dividend per share of 15 yen after the reverse stock split.

*7 The figures for FY2023 are calculated based on the revised Energy Conservation Law that came into effect in April 2023. The figure for FY2023, calculated on the basis of the pre-revision standard, is 5.35 kl/10,000 km.

*8 Incidents in the railway business, transportation failures (limited to delays or suspensions in service for at least three hours), and other incidents for which we are responsible.

*9 Based on the DBJ Green Building certification and CASBEE Real Estate Evaluation certification.

*10 Calculations exclude Osaka City.
