Earnings Release for the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2013

1. Information on Consolidated Results

(1) Operating Results

i. Business Overview

Amid a major transition driven mainly by the rapid proliferation of smartphones, the competition in Japan’s mobile telecommunications market remains intense due to active movement of subscribers using the Mobile Number Portability (MNP) system and other factors.

Under these market conditions, we are promoting various initiatives to achieve further growth and create a society where everyone can lead a safe, secure and affluent life in line with our corporate vision, “Pursuing Smart Innovation: HEART.”

Furthermore, based on our Medium-Term Vision 2015: “Shaping a Smart Life” that defines our medium-term management policies, we have taken steps for the reinforcement of our mobile business, and worked on the expansion of new businesses to create new values, thereby supporting the everyday lives of our customers and businesses to impart a sense of safety, security, convenience and efficiency as a “Partner for a Smart Life,”.

In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, in order to reinforce our mobile business, we endeavored to meet the needs of more customers with enrichment of our product lineup including smartphones, expansion of our Xi LTE service coverage and improvement of our billing plans and after-sales support. Additionally, we aggressively promoted the convergence of mobile with various other industries and services in collaboration with external partners in eight new business fields^*which were set up with the aim of expanding new businesses.

In addition, we have also strived to provide customers with greater convenience by blending the initiatives undertaken in new business areas and those in our mobile phone business with enrichment of the capabilities and content provided through the “docomo cloud,” which comprise the “dmarket” portal and other components. Also, for the purpose of further improving the services offered on smartphones in cooperation with venture companies, and reinforcing our service development capabilities in new business fields toward the future, in February 2013, we established a venture fund operating company, DOCOMO Innovation Ventures, Inc., and launched an incubation program, “DOCOMO Innovation Village,” to support startups and ventures.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, while voice revenues in our mobile communications services^** decreased by ¥267.3 billion due mainly to the impacts of penetration of the “Monthly Support” discount program and a decrease in MOU (Minutes of Use), packet revenues increased by ¥109.3 billion due to an increase in the number of Xi subscriptions and a growth in the user base of smartphones as a result of our active sales promotion. Equipment sales revenues grew by ¥259.2 billion due to an increase in wholesale price per unit and an increase in the number of handsets sold to agent resellers. Other operating revenues grew by ¥128.9 billion owing mainly to an favorable expansion of our new business fields and other measures. Consequently, we recognized operating revenues of ¥4,470.1 billion (an increase of ¥230.1 billion from the previous fiscal year).

Despite our promotion of cost efficiency improvement toward the goal of further strengthening our management structure, operating expenses increased by ¥267.4 billion from the previous fiscal year to ¥3,632.9 billion as a result of costs for measures aimed to expand new businesses as well as increased costs of equipment sold due to an increase in the purchase price per handset and the number of handsets sold to agent resellers.

As a result of the foregoing, although we could not achieve ¥900.0 billion, the original full-year target, we recorded operating income of ¥837.2 billion (a decrease of ¥37.3 billion from the previous fiscal year), and were able to surpass ¥820.0 billion, the full-year forecast as revised in the second quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

Income before income taxes and equity in net income (losses) of affiliates was ¥841.7 billion, and net income attributable to NTT DOCOMO, INC. was ¥495.6 billion (an increase of 31.7 billion from the previous fiscal year).

Going forward, while continuing our endeavors to operate a safe, secure and high-quality network to improve customer satisfaction, we will further accelerate the initiatives in both our mobile phone business and new businesses. At the same time, for the steadfast implementation of these measures, we will also steadily promote structural reform to strengthen our managerial foundation.

*	Our eight new business fields are media/content, finance/payment, commerce, medical/healthcare, M2M, aggregation/platform, environment/ecology, and safety/security.

With the expansion of initiatives regarding the new business fields, presentation methods of operating revenues in the consolidated statements of income of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 and 2013 have been changed. Some elements which were included in conventional “Wireless services” have been reclassified into “Other operating revenues,” and the title “Wireless services” has been changed to “Mobile communications services.”

ii. Segment Results

Mobile phone business—

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, we worked to deliver state-of-the-art services that are only available from us leveraging our proprietary “docomo cloud” technology, while further enhancing the convenience of our smartphone products with the release of various products including “Xperia^TMZ SO-02E,” which is equipped with a large-capacity battery and quad-core CPU for ultra-fast processing.

We also enriched our product lineup to accommodate a diverse range of users without any concerns about safety and security, by launching distinctive models such as the “Raku-Raku Smartphone” designed for maximum ease of use with such features as the “Raku-Raku Touch Panel” that gives the tactile sensation of pressing a physical button, and the “Smartphone for Juniors SH-05E,” an entry-level model equipped with features designed for preteen, first-time smartphone users.

Meanwhile, we also expanded and improved billing options, our service areas and our after-sales support to provide an environment in which our customers will find it easy to use our products and services.

As a result of the foregoing, the total number of smartphone sold in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 reached 13.29 million units, and the total number of sp-mode subscribers grew to 18.28 million.

Our total mobile phone subscriptions as of March 31, 2013 grew to 61.54 million, up 1.41 million compared to the number as of March 31, 2012, as a result of brisk smartphone sales. However, the competition with other carriers for the acquisition of net additions remained intense, and the impact of subscriber port-outs using the MNP system expanded. As a consequence, our cellular churn rate for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 increased by 0.22 points from the previous fiscal year to 0.82%.

While voice revenues decreased by ¥267.3 billion due mainly to the impacts of penetration of the “Monthly Support” discount program and a decrease in MOU (Minutes of Use), packet revenues increased by ¥109.3 billion due to an increase in the number of Xi subscriptions and a growth in the user base of smartphones as a result of our active sales promotion. Equipment sales revenues grew by ¥259.2 billion due to an increase in wholesale price per unit and an increase in the number of handsets sold to agent resellers.

As a result of the foregoing, operating revenues and operating income from the mobile phone business for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, were ¥4,275.2 billion (an increase of ¥164.6 billion from the previous fiscal year) and ¥868.3 billion (a decrease of ¥18.0 billion from the previous fiscal year), respectively.

A summary of the principal initiatives in the mobile phone business implemented during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, is provided below:

DOCOMO Earnings Release		Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2013

<<Promotion of “docomo cloud”>>

Summarized below are the initiatives implemented for the promotion of “docomo cloud,” which allows customers to receive convenient services that are uniquely available from us by accessing our network servers through their smartphones or tablets:

Three key service components of “docomo cloud”:


		Description
dmarket		A market that offers a rich suite of digital content such as video, music and electronic books as well as various physical merchandise such as groceries and daily necessities on the cloud
Intelligent service		A cloud-based service that provides intelligent solutions through the use of various advanced technologies such as voice recognition, machine translation and voice synthesis
Storage		A service that allows users to store photographs, videos, phone book and other data on the cloud

•

We launched the “dgame” mobile gaming platform, which offers a wide variety of games including original titles, and the “dshopping” online shopping service, which handles groceries and other daily necessities. We also continued our efforts to enrich the content of existing services such as the “dvideo” video/movie distribution platform and the number of “dvideo” subscriptions exceeded 4.0 million as of March 31, 2013.

•

We established a joint venture, DOCOMO ANIME STORE, Inc., with Kadokawa Shoten Publishing Co. Ltd. mainly for the purpose of supplying content to “danime store^*.”

•

We started support for multiple-device ownership by enabling users to share content purchased via our “dmarket” portal over multiple smartphones or tablets devices with the same ID.

•

We released “dtab,” a Wi-Fi-dedicated tablet preinstalled with a proprietary home screen designed for easy access to our “dvideo” and other services. Moreover, introducing the “SmartTV dstick 01,” a small flash drive-like HDMI device for enjoying “dvideo” and other content on large-screen televisions, we are promoting the “docomo Smart Home” initiative aimed at facilitating the linkage between smartphone and tablets/TV or other home electronics.

*	“danime store” is a trademark of KDDI Corporation.

•

We launched “Mail-Hon’yaku-Concier” service, an application that automatically translates text messages between Japanese and foreign languages, the “Utsushite-Hon’yaku,” a service that translates text captured by the camera of the smartphone, and “Hanashite Hon’yaku^*” automatic translation service which converts the speech spoken to the phone into the desired language.

•

As of March 31, 2013, our voice agent application “Shabette Concier” garnered over 10 million installations and approximately 340 million accesses on a cumulative basis.

*	“Hanashite Hon’yaku” received the Grand Prix prize in the CEATEC INNOVATION AWARDS “As Selected by U.S. Journalists” at CEATEC JAPAN 2012, and the “GSMA Global Mobile Awards 2013: Best Network Product or Solution for Serving Customers” at the GSMA Mobile World Congress 2013.

•

We launched the “Photo Collection” service that allows users to save photographs and videos to cloud storage, which can be browsed and edited not only from smartphones and tablets, but also from PCs.

We commenced the “docomo denwacho” cloud-based phonebook data storage service, which enables easy production of backup data and transfer of phonebook data upon the replacement to a new handset.

<<Enrichment of Billing Plans>>

To respond to users’ diversified needs, smartphones, tablets and data-only devices, we introduced new flat-rate billing plans and price promotions as described below:

•

We launched “Xi Pake-hodai Light” (a flat-rate billing plan for packet access via Xi LTE phones) and “Xi Data Plan Light Ninen^*1” (a flat-rate billing plan with a two-year contract for Xi LTE-enabled data-only devices).

iii. Stable Operation of Communications Network

To fulfill our mission, as an operator of vital social infrastructure, of ensuring communications that connect people, we have been working on the construction of communication infrastructure that can function properly even in the event of a large-scale disaster.

In addition, we have also employed measures to ensure stable network operations, adapting to the changes in communications environment associated with the rapid proliferation of smartphones and addition of cloud service.

<<Measures for Disaster Preparedness>>

•

To prepare for possible large-scale disasters in the future, such as an earthquake directly striking the Metropolis of Tokyo, we have moved ahead with the dispersion of important communications facilities previously concentrated in the Metropolitan area. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, we established a backup center for our smartphone packet communications platform in Kyushu and a backup center for the storage of customer data in Kansai.

•

We started furnishing our base stations with fuel cells that are more compact and lightweight than heretofore as an emergency power source that can supply power for over 40 hours in the event of a disaster. As a new countermeasure against long-term power outage, we introduced remotely-controlled energy-saving mechanisms.

•

With the aim of ensuring communications in cases of natural disasters such as earthquakes or torrential rain or events with massive public turnout, we introduced mobile base station vehicles compatible with our high-speed Xi LTE service (maximum downlink speed: 75Mbps).

•

With the “NTT DOCOMO Group Comprehensive Disaster Drill,” which is conducted annually in cooperation with designated administrative institutions, we verify and confirm the procedures for securing communications and restoring damaged communications and other facilities in the event of a disaster through the setting and operation of equipment that we newly introduced in light of the lessons learned from the experience of the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011.

•

We also carried out verification experiments toward the commercialization of disaster-resilient, environment friendly “Green Base Stations.”

iv. Trend of Capital Expenditures

The principal capital investments made during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 are summarized below.

<< Expansion of Telecommunications Facilities>>

•

We improved the Xi LTE services area, while moving forward with a significant increase in the number of base stations, and continued further quality enhancements for FOMA services areas. As a result, the total number of Xi LTE base stations reached 24,400, up 17,400 compared to March 31, 2012. The total number of FOMA outdoor and indoor base stations was 68,800 and 33,900, respectively.

•

We moved ahead with the reinforcement of our network facilities to respond to the increase in data traffic resulting from the expanded adoption of smartphones and migration of subscribers to Xi LTE service.

•

We tackled the reinforcement of our “docomo cloud” servers and other platform elements to deliver various intelligent services such as “Shabette Concier” voice agent or “Hanashite Hon’yaku” speech translation services.

<<Initiatives Aimed for Efficiency and Cost Reduction>>

•

We pursued cost efficiency improvement toward the goal of further strengthening our management foundation through integration and/or capacity expansion of our existing equipment, efficiency improvement of construction works and reduction of equipment procurement costs.

•

We also structured our service areas and achieved quality improvement in an efficient manner, using the optimal equipment among various options taking into consideration the surrounding environment and geography, data transmission volume and other factors when establishing base stations.

As a result of the above measures, the total capital expenditures for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, increased by 3.7% from the previous fiscal year to ¥753.7 billion.


	Billions of yen
	Year ended March 31, 2012		Year ended March 31, 2013		Increase (Decrease)

v. Prospects for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2014

Competition in Japan’s mobile telecommunications market is expected to remain intense in such areas as acquisition of subscribers and further improvement of service offerings. Under these market conditions, we expect to post an increase in both operating revenues and operating income for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014.

Our operating revenues for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014 are expected to be ¥4,640.0 billion, an increase of ¥169.9 billion from the previous fiscal year, reflecting continuing growth in packet revenues driven by accelerating the migration to Xi smartphones, equipment sales revenues by promoting smartphones sales, and Other operating revenues such as dmarket, offsetting revenue reduction primarily caused by the growth in subscription numbers of the “Monthly Support” discount program. Our operating expenses are expected to be ¥3,800.0 billion, an increase of ¥167.1 billion from the previous fiscal year. Although we continue efforts aimed at further cost efficiency, operating expenses are expected to increase primarily caused by the growth in the number of Xi LTE base stations for quality enhancements, actions aimed for expanding future revenues, and an increase in cost of equipment sold driven by the growth in handset sales. Accordingly, operating income is estimated to be ¥840.0 billion, an increase of ¥2.8 billion from the previous fiscal year.

EBITDA and EBITDA margin, as we use them, are different from EBITDA as used in Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. For an explanation of our definition of free cash flows excluding irregular factors and changes in investments for cash management purposes, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, ROCE before tax effect and ROCE after tax effect, see “5. (3) Reconciliations of the Disclosed Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the Most Directly Comparable GAAP Financial Measures” on page 33.

Notes:

The mobile telecommunications market in Japan is characterized by rapid changes in the market environment due to technical innovations, market entry by new competitors and other factors. To respond to such changes, our corporate group may introduce new billing plans or other measures that could potentially have a significant impact on our revenues and income. The timing of introduction of such measures will be decided after comprehensively taking into consideration our operational circumstances and the actions of our competitors, and therefore, is not necessarily decided beforehand. Such measures, depending on the timing of implementation, may significantly affect our results forecasts to be made at the time of our first-half results announcement. Providing such prospects on a half-year basis, therefore, may not be adequate or useful as information to be disclosed to investors. Accordingly, we will provide prospects for the full year only, and report progress vis-à-vis the projected full-year forecasts by disclosing actual results on a quarterly basis.

(3) Profit Distribution

i. Basic Policies for Profit Distribution

Believing that providing adequate returns to shareholders is one of the most important issues in corporate management, we plan to pay dividends by taking into account our consolidated results and consolidated dividend payout ratio based on the principle of stable dividend payments, while striving to strengthen our financial position and secure internal reserves. We will also continue to take a flexible approach regarding share repurchases. We intend to keep the repurchased shares as treasury stock and in principle to limit the amount of such treasury stock to approximately 5% of our total issued shares, and will consider retiring any treasury stock held in excess of this limit in a lump around the end of the fiscal year or at other appropriate times.

In addition, we will allocate internal reserves to active research and development efforts, capital expenditures and other investments in response to the rapidly changing market environment. We will endeavor to boost our corporate value by introducing new technologies, offering new services and expanding our business fields through alliances with new partners.

ii. Dividend

We paid ¥3,000 per share as an interim dividend for the six months ended September 30, 2012 and plans to pay a year-end dividend of ¥3,000 per share, resulting in a total annual dividend of ¥6,000 per share for the year ended March 31, 2013.

iii. Prospect for the next fiscal year

We expect to pay an interim dividend of ¥3,000 and a year-end dividend of ¥30 per share for the year ending March 31, 2014. The year-end dividend forecast takes into account 1:100 stock split with the effective date of October 1, 2013. If adjusted to reflect the number of shares prior to the stock split, the total annual dividend amount will be equivalent to ¥6,000 per share, consisting of an interim dividend of ¥3,000 and a year-end dividend of ¥3,000.

(4) Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This earnings release contains forward-looking statements such as forecasts of results of operations, management strategies, objectives and plans, forecasts of operational data such as the expected number of subscription, and the expected dividend payments. All forward-looking statements that are not historical facts are based on management’s current plans, expectations, assumptions and estimates based on the information currently available. Some of the projected numbers in this earnings release were derived using certain assumptions that are indispensable for making such projections in addition to historical facts. These forward-looking statements are subject to various known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in or suggested by any forward-looking statement. Potential risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, the following:

(1)

Changes in the market environment in the telecommunications industry, such as intensifying competition from other businesses or other technologies caused by Mobile Number Portability, development of appealing new handsets, new market entrants, mergers among other service providers and other factors, or the expansion of the areas of competition could limit the acquisition of new subscriptions and retention of existing subscriptions by our corporate group or it may lead to ARPU diminishing at a greater than expected rate, an increase in our costs or an inability to reduce expenses as expected.

(2)

If current and new services, usage patterns, and sales schemes proposed and introduced by our corporate group cannot develop as planned, or if unanticipated expenses arise the financial condition of our corporate group could be affected and our growth could be limited.

(3)

The introduction or change of various laws or regulations inside and outside of Japan, or the application of such laws and regulations to our corporate group could restrict our business operations, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

(4)

Limitations in the amount of frequency spectrum or facilities made available to us could negatively affect our ability to maintain and improve our service quality and level of customer satisfaction and could increase our costs.

(5)

Other mobile service providers in the world may not adopt the technologies and the frequency bands that are compatible with those used by our corporate group’s mobile communications system on a continuing basis, which could affect our ability to sufficiently offer international services.

(6)

Our domestic and international investments, alliances and collaborations may not produce the returns or provide the opportunities we expect.

(7)

Malfunctions, defects or imperfection in our products and services or those of other parties may give rise to problems.

(8)

Social problems that could be caused by misuse or misunderstanding of our products and services may adversely affect our credibility or corporate image.

(9)

Inadequate handling of confidential business information including personal information by our corporate group, contractors and others, may adversely affect our credibility or corporate image.

(10)

Owners of intellectual property rights that are essential for our business execution may not grant us a license or other use of such intellectual property rights, which may result in our inability to offer certain technologies, products and/or services, and our corporate group may also be held liable for damage compensation if we infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others. In addition, the illicit use of the intellectual property rights owned by our corporate group could reduce the license revenues actually obtained and may inhibit our competitive superiority.

(11)

Events and incidents caused by natural disasters, social infrastructure paralysis such as power shortages, proliferation of harmful substances, terror or other destructive acts, the malfunctioning of equipment, software bugs, deliberate incidents induced by computer viruses, cyber attacks, equipment misconfiguration, hacking, unauthorized access and other problems could cause failure in our networks, distribution channels and/or other factors necessary for the provision of service, disrupting our ability to offer services to our subscribers, and such incidents may adversely affect our credibility or corporate image, or lead to a reduction of revenues and/or increase of costs.

(12)

Concerns about adverse health effects arising from wireless telecommunication may spread and consequently adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

(13)

Our parent company, NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATION (NTT), could exercise influence that may not be in the interests of our other shareholders.

3. Management Policies

(1) Basic Management Policies

Under the corporate philosophy of “creating a new world of communications culture,” we are expanding our core business centered on FOMA 3G and Xi LTE services, as well as developing more diverse mobile multimedia services both for daily life and business. We are also taking steps to maximize our corporate value to heighten the trust and value that shareholders and customers place in us.

(2) Target Management Indicators

As Japan’s mobile telecommunications market continues to mature, our group regards EBITDA margin as an important management indicator from the perspective of profitability, to further enhance its management effectiveness. We also consider ROCE an important management indicator in terms of efficiency in its invested capital (NTT DOCOMO, INC. shareholders’ equity + Interest bearing liabilities). The group will exert its utmost efforts to maintain EBITDA margin of at least 35% and achieve ROCE of at least 20% and attempt to maximize its corporate value.

Notes:

•

EBITDA margin = EBITDA / Operating revenues

•

EBITDA = Operating income + Depreciation and amortization + Losses on sale or disposal of property, plant and equipment

•

ROCE = Operating income / (NTT DOCOMO, INC. shareholders’ equity + Interest bearing liabilities)

NTT DOCOMO, INC. shareholders’ equity and interest bearing liabilities are the average of the amounts at the end of the current fiscal year and the previous fiscal year.

(3) Medium- and Long-Term Management Strategies

We developed our Medium-Term Vision 2015 “Shaping a Smart Life” to present the clear steps and initiatives to be implemented in the period between the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 and the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016. For details concerning the Medium-Term Vision 2015, please see our earnings release for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 (announced on April 27, 2012). No changes have been made to the descriptions contained in said earnings release, which can be obtained via the following URL:

(4) Issues to be Addressed by the Group

We have been engaged in “proceeding toward an Integrated Service Corporation” in order to steadfastly implement Medium-Term Vision 2015 “Shaping a Smart Life.” Going forward, we will set forth the new theme “Partner for a Smart Life” in order to make the vision more clearly understood and engage in furthering the process. We, as a “Partner for a Smart Life,” will deliver to customers “appropriate information” selected from “overflowed information” throughout the world in a timely manner and support the lives of our customers to impart a sense of safety, security, convenience and efficiency. Moreover, while we will endeavor to bring customers maximum value by not only providing the platform for services but also transforming ourselves into a service provider, we will also construct an environment where customers can freely use the services through “docomo ID” without concerns as to the type of networks or devices. In the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, we will focus on “expansion of smartphone user base” and “creation of new revenue sources leveraging ‘docomo cloud’ as a core.” We will also facilitate the “transformation and reorganization of our business structure” to ensure these actions.

DOCOMO Earnings Release		Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2013

(4)-i Maintenance/Expansion of Smartphone User Base

To enhance customer convenience, we will strive to offer devices, network and services that are easy to understand and use for our customers.


		Devices:		To boost the attractiveness or our devices, we will undertake such measures as clarifying the recommended products by using the keywords “easy to understand and easy to choose,” while extending the battery hours and making other functional improvements.
		Network:		We will seek to realize “outstanding connectivity and usability” by focusing on the enhancement of Xi LTE network quality to provide users with high-quality mobile communications experience. In addition, we will also strive for the provision of a comfortable mobile communications environment through the combined use of Wi-Fi services.
		Services:		For smart phone usage, we will proceed with the provision of an assortment of popular services and further enhancement of “dmarket” using the keywords “affordable and worry-free use.”

(4)-ii Creation of New Revenue Sources Leveraging “docomo cloud” as a Core

Leveraging “docomo cloud” services, which consist of the three key components of “dmarket” portal, “Intelligent services” and “Storage” capabilities, we plan to provide customers with a wide range of products and services thereby bringing enhanced safety, security, and convenience and the latest technology to people’s everyday lives and businesses.

Our goal is to accelerate the realization of “Smart Life” by combining these “docomo cloud” capabilities with the initiatives undertaken in the eight new business areas.

Furthermore, we decided to tackle “health” as a high-priority project for the future in light of its importance in our lives and society. To this end, we established docomo Healthcare, Inc., a joint venture with OMRON HEALTHCARE Co. Ltd., and launched a new mobile healthcare platform dubbed “watashi-move” in April 2013. The platform stores and analyzes user’s body data using mobile devices such as smartphones and health appliances to provide users with healthcare services and products most suited to their conditions in collaboration with alliance partners.

With respect to our global business, we will continue to pursue alliances with overseas carriers, while aggressively promoting platform businesses leveraging the vast contacts with customers and business partners as well as know-how that we have accumulated over the years.

(4)-iii Enhancing the Business Foundation with Structural Innovations

As part of our structural reform, we will thoroughly seek efficiency improvement in our mobile phone business through aggressive promotion of key products and other measures in an effort to reinforce our cost competitiveness. Furthermore, we will review every aspect of our business operation to improve speed and efficiency and allocate resources to new business areas to improve the productivity of the entire DOCOMO Group.

In order to bring about structural innovations, besides strengthening cost competitiveness by seeking in-depth efficiency improvement in our mobile phone business, all our businesses will come under review with the establishment of the Smart-life Business Division in July 2013 as a starting point. According to this organizational change, we will promote the establishment and expansion of services by accelerating the speed with which we provide services.

Leveraging the strong business foundation that we have constructed together with customers, we will work in unison toward the shared goal of becoming a corporate group that can earn the trust, by continually undertaking measures that allow them to continue using our services without any concerns.

Considering shareholder returns as one of the most important issues in our corporate management, we will strive to continue stable dividend payments while taking into consideration our consolidated financial results and consolidated dividend payout ratio.

(2) Definition and Calculation Methods of ARPU and MOU

i. Definition of ARPU and MOU

ARPU (Average monthly Revenue Per Unit):

Average monthly revenue per unit, or ARPU, is used to measure average monthly operating revenues attributable to designated services on a per subscription basis. ARPU is calculated by dividing various revenue items included in operating revenues from our mobile communications services and a part of other operating revenues by the number of active subscriptions to our wireless services in the relevant periods. We believe that our ARPU figures provide useful information to analyze the average usage per subscription and the impacts of changes in our billing arrangements. The revenue items included in the numerators of our ARPU figures are based on our U.S. GAAP results of operations.

MOU (Minutes of Use): Average monthly communication time per subscription.

ii. ARPU Calculation Methods


Aggregate ARPU =		Voice ARPU + Packet ARPU + Smart ARPU

- Voice ARPU:		Voice ARPU Related Revenues (basic monthly charges, voice communication charges) / No. of active subscriptions

- Packet ARPU:		Packet ARPU Related Revenues (basic monthly charges, packet communication charges) / No. of active subscriptions

- Smart ARPU:		A part of other operating revenues (revenues from content, collection of charges, mobile phone insurance service, advertising and others) / No. of active subscriptions

iii.

Active Subscriptions Calculation Methods

Sum of No. of active subscriptions for each month ((No. of subscriptions at the end of previous month + No. of subscriptions at the end of current month) / 2) during the relevant period

Note:

Subscriptions and revenues for communication module services, “Phone Number Storage” and “Mail Address Storage” services are not included in the ARPU and MOU calculations.

ii. ROCE after tax effect


	Billions of yen
	Year ending March 31, 2014 (Forecasts)			Year ended March 31, 2012			Year ended March 31, 2013

ROCE after tax effect (=b/c)		9.0	%		9.8	%		9.4	%

Notes:

Capital employed = Two period ends average of (NTT DOCOMO, INC. shareholders’ equity + Interest bearing liabilities)

Interest bearing liabilities = Current portion of long-term debt + Short-term borrowings + Long-term debt

The effective tax rate for the year ended March 31,2012 was 40.8%.

The effective tax rate for the year ended March 31,2013 was 38.1%.

The effective tax rate for the year ending March 31,2014 (Forecasts) is 38.1%.

iii. Free cash flows excluding irregular factors and effect by transfer of receivables and changes in investments for cash management purposes


	Billions of yen
	Year ending March 31, 2014 (Forecasts)			Year ended March 31, 2012			Year ended March 31, 2013
Free cash flows excluding irregular factors and effect by transfer of receivables and changes in investments for cash management purposes	¥	400.0		¥	503.5		¥	225.6

Net cash provided by operating activities		1,103.0			1,110.6			932.4

Note:

(1) Irregular factors represent the effects of uncollected revenues due to a bank closure at the end of the fiscal period.

(2) Effect of transfer of receivables represents the effect caused by the uncollected amounts of transferred receivables of telephone charges to NTT FINANCE CORPORATION. Since the payment conditions of the consideration of claims transferred to NTT FINANCE CORPORATION are set approximately equivalent to our cash collection cycle history, an impact derived from the transfer of receivables is not significant.

(3) Changes in investments for cash management purposes were derived from purchases, redemption at maturity and disposals of financial instruments held for cash management purposes with original maturities of longer than three months. Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended March, 2012 and 2013 includes changes in investments for cash management purposes. The effect of changes in investments for cash management purposes is not taken into account when we forecasted net cash used in investing activities for the year ending March 31, 2014 due to the difficulties in forecasting such effect.

iv. Market equity ratio


	Billions of yen

Shareholders’ equity ratio (=a/c)		—		72.9	%		75.1	%
Market equity ratio (=b/c)		—		82.0	%		81.5	%

Notes:

Market value of total share capital = Closing share price multiplied by the number of outstanding shares (excluding treasury stock) as of the end of the fiscal period

Market equity ratio for the year ending March 31, 2014 is not forecasted because it is difficult to estimate the market value of total share capital in the future.
