Additionally, we will explore the possibilities of strengthening our business base
through regional vitalization along the railway lines and through projects that use
our idle assets effectively. Specifically, we decided to enter into the field of
agriculture; by the end of July 2012, we started to produce quality, safe and
reliable farm produce in our plant factory with 100% artificial lighting and in
greenhouses. Moreover, we make efforts toward energy generation and, as part
of the effort, we are taking part in the large-scale photovoltaic power generation
(mega solar) project, taking advantage of the feed-in tariff (FIT) system for
renewable energy. With this, we started our power generation business in
September 2013. We are now striving to address local revitalization through
implementation of a business model for supplying power to nearby evacuation
centers in times of disaster by utilizing our mega solar system.

(2) Railway business
With safety as prerequisite, we are making progress in the construction of an efficient operating structure through software-oriented improvements, with the aim of
securing appropriate profit even under the influence of flagging demand as well as flexibly responding to the current transportation situation and ever-diversifying
customer needs.
Specifically, in March 2012, we changed our train operation schedule with the primary objective of optimizing transportation operations based on the current utilization
status and demand trends while reorganizing and rationalizing in areas including stations, train operations and facilities. In the future, we will strive to continuously
implement the above mentioned streamlining measures. We are also making progress in the restructuring of our business policies from various aspects, including
complete 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 services
that are closely linked to local players. In particular, for the vitalization of the Ise-Shima area, where the Ise Jingu Shrine conducted Jingu Shikinen Sengu (the
ceremony 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 the
railroads with The Shimakaze Sightseeing Limited Express, which started operation in March of the same year.
(3) Other businesses
[1] Real estate business
Along with the Keihanna Line opened in March 2006 (between Ikoma and Gakken-Nara-Tomigaoka), we are developing housing land and constructing convenient
facilities mainly for the communities in the areas around the stations. In particular, a large development project to construct single houses, condominiums, commercial
facilities and other establishments is underway in the area west of Gakken-Nara-Tomigaoka station. Within this site marked for development, starting with the partial
opening in March 2013, key facilities including rehabilitation clinics and daycare centers are being planned inside the Kintetsu Gakken-Nara-Tomigaoka Residential
Area. We have set out to develop the area as a town where residents can live happily for a long term with reassurance, security and comfort.
[2] Retail business
We are strengthening the management base of our groups retail business including department stores and supermarkets and also stores in station premises. In
September 2011, we established our basic strategy for unification of the strategic functions of the groups retail businesses so as to achieve total optimization and
further accelerate growth in sales and profits.
As for the project to establish in-station stores, we are working to promote transformation of major stations into shopping malls with the opening of Times Place
Ujiyamada in November 2012 and Times Place Abeno and Times Place Uehommachi in February 2014. In fiscal 2013, with our convenience store project, we
entered into a business tie-up with FamilyMart Co., Ltd., replacing around 70 in-station shops and a variety of convenience stores with FamilyMart stores. Furthermore,
we have opened FamilyMart stores and cafs inside Abeno Harukas, aiming for further business expansion.
[3] Hotel & leisure facility business
We will enhance the competitiveness of our hotel business with Osaka Marriott Miyako Hotel in Abeno Harukas which opened in March 2014, and Hotel Kintetsu Kyoto
Station which started its operation in October 2011, as well as through the renovation of existing hotels.
In addition, the group will strengthen its operation in Nara, a city which has been making continuous efforts to attract tourists after the 1300th anniversary of Heijo-kyo
Capital, and in the Ise-Shima area which received attention for the ceremony of Ise Jingu Shrine to transfer the deity to the new shrine in 2013.
With our comprehensive transportation network and capacity,
we will connect towns with towns and people with people.
Railway Business / Transportation Capacity
Transportation Capacity
We possess approximately 1,930 railcars, running on a total railroad length of 508.1 km and with a daily passenger volume of 1.55 million. The

With the launch of the Keihanna Line in March 2006, Kintetsu
achieved a direct connection between the Kansai Science City and
the northern part of Nara, and the Osaka bay area via downtown
Osaka, thus contributing to the cooperation and revitalization of
the cities along the railway line. In addition, a direct service
without the need for transit between Kobe-Sannomiya Station and
Kintetsu-Nara Station was established in March 2009 jointly with
the Hanshin Electric Railway, allowing Nara, Osaka and Kobe to be

Environmental Protection Activities
Energy saving train operations
Energy-saving railcars have been introduced to reduce power consumption,
including VVVF trains, which can cut electricity usage by about 35%. These new
railcars employ aluminum bodies and bolsterless trucks to lower their weight.
Kintetsu has acquired a high environmental
rating in the environmental rating loan system
We received an environmental rating loan in March 2014 from the
Development Bank of Japan (DBJ), which described our
commitment to environmental activities as being especially
advanced.
Our activities and past record for the prevention of global warming
Our project was selected by the Ministry of Infrastructure,
Land, Transport and Tourism as a Model Project Promoting
Low CO 2 Emissions for Houses & Buildings
The Ministry of Infrastructure, Land, Transport and Tourism selects Model Projects Promoting Low
CO 2 Emissions for Houses & Buildings to subsidize part of the development costs of the most
feasible leading projects with the aim of promoting reduced CO 2 emissions from houses and
buildings. The Abenobashi terminal building (Abeno Harukas) improvement project has been
adopted in the category of newly constructed buildings (other than houses), and the former
Ayameike Amusement Park site development project has been adopted in the category of collective
housing and individual [Link] latter was selected for the first time as a housing land
development project that constructs individual houses and collective housing in Japan.
Installation of photovoltaic power generation systems
The largest photovoltaic power generation system of any hotel in Japan has been installed at the
Sheraton Miyako Hotel, Osaka. We have also installed solar panels on the Miyako Hybrid Hotel
Torrance, California in the US and Abeno Harukas.
CSR report
We post a CSR report on our website, which
summarizes our voluntary social activities and the
overall social responsibility of the Kintetsu Group,
including the contents of our Safety Report and
Environmental Report.
Eective use of resources
Promotion of recycling
Environmental activities in ABENO HARUKAS
The Abeno Harukas strongly promotes CO 2 reduction measures, and includes a biogas power
generation system that is the first of its kind to be introduced in a high-rise building in Japan.
This is a leading environmentally-conscious [Link] was selected by the above-mentioned
Model Projects Promoting Low CO 2 Emissions for Houses & Buildings and the terminal building has
also been awarded the highest S rank under CASBEE Osaka, and has been rated platinum under
the DBJ Green Building Certification System.
Paper tickets are recycled as raw materials for building materials and toilet paper. Also, we recycle
used commuter passes and cards into fuel.
Installation of regenerative power absorption equipment
When a train equipped with a regenerative brake maintains a steady speed or slows down, the motor
is used as a power generator to convert the kinetic energy released from the resistor as heat into
electric energy, which is effectively used as power for lighting and air conditioning in stations.
26
Utilizing the collective capabilities of the Kintetsu Group,
we deliver rich, full lives to the city and the people.
Life Support Business & New Businesses
