Notice Concerning Difference in Individual Financial Results (Non-consolidated Financial Results) Compared to Actual Figures for the Previous Year Results

NTT DOCOMO, INC. hereby announces that there is a difference between the individual financial results (non-consolidated financial results) for the year ended March 2013 (April 1, 2012 – March 31, 2013) and the actual results for the previous year (year ended March 2012; April 1, 2011 – March 31, 2012), and that this difference has reached the level requiring disclosure.

Due to the Company not disclosing forecasts for individual financial results (non-consolidated financial results) for the said period, a comparison of actual values is used to describe the change.

1. Difference between the non-consolidated financial results for the year ended March 2013 and the actual figures for the previous year

2. Reason for the difference occurring

The recording of a loss on valuation of stocks of affiliated companies held by the Company was the primary factor that led to net income falling by ¥181,421 million from previous year to ¥376,640 million.

The total loss on valuation of stocks of affiliated companies was ¥189,124 million, and this was recorded as an extraordinary loss in the individual (non-consolidated) financial statements. The amounts and main components of the loss on valuation were ¥139,242 million on Tata Teleservices Limited stocks, ¥37,161 million on Robi Axiata Limited stocks and ¥11,674 million on DOCOMO interTouch Pte. Ltd. stocks.

 

(Note) Unlike accounting treatment under non-consolidated accounting, as the Company’s equity in losses of subsidiaries and associated companies is deducted from the acquisition cost of those companies every quarter under consolidated accounting, the Company recorded a total loss of ¥33,645 million in its consolidated result of the fiscal year 2012 based on the valuation of the fair value of those companies.
