<< Comment from Masao Nakamura, President and CEO >>

 

Amid intensified competition following the launch of Mobile Number Portability (MNP) last year, we embarked on the “DoCoMo 2.0” campaign during the first quarter of this fiscal year, and implemented various measures with a goal to create new values for cellular services. As a part of these efforts, we released FOMA 904i series handsets equipped with various new advanced features including, among others, the “2in1” service, which allows users to carry two phone numbers and two mail addresses with a single handset, and “Chokkan Game” that is played using intuitive motion. Meanwhile, the subscriber base of our “pake-hodai” flat-rate packet access service grew steadily, topping the 10 million mark in May 2007. Operating revenues and operating income for the first three months of this fiscal year ending March 31, 2008 were ¥1,182.9 billion and ¥203.9 billion, respectively, posting a decrease compared to the same period of last fiscal year due mainly to the impact of the accounting change during the same period of the prior year to initially recognize as revenues the portion of “Nikagetsu Kurikoshi (two-month carry-over)” allowances that are estimated to expire, and growth in operating expenses resulting from an increase in the number of handsets sold.

 

In the second quarter, more models of the “slim and compact” FOMA 704i series handsets offering a wide range of convenient features will go on sale, and new billing plans such as “Fami-wari MAX 50” and “Hitoridemo Discount 50” are planned for introduction. With the aim to further enhance DoCoMo’s brand and reinforce our marketing capability, we decided to newly establish Corporate Branding Division. We have also reorganized our existing DCMX credit business by setting up DCMX Business Department to accelerate the uptake of DCMX subscriptions, which reached 2.85 million as of June 30, 2007.

 

Going forward, we will step up our efforts to improve our handsets, network, services, billing plans and after-sales support, to enhance the level of satisfaction of every single customer, and at the same time, take up the challenge to create new values placing cellular phones in the center of the hub, through, for example, collaboration with other companies.

The aggregate number of cellular (FOMA+mova) services subscriptions was 52.85 million as of June 30, 2007, an increase of 0.22 million compared to the number as of March 31, 2007. The increase derived from our continued efforts to strengthen total competitiveness from a customer-centric viewpoint, including the offering of subscriber-friendly billing arrangements, enrichment of our handset lineup and network services and enhancement of network quality.

 

   

Due to the steady migration of subscribers from mova services to FOMA services, the number of FOMA services subscriptions increased to 37.85 million, up 2.32 million from the number as of March 31, 2007, and the proportion of FOMA services subscriptions to the aggregate cellular (FOMA+mova) subscriptions increased to 71.6% as of June 30, 2007.

 

   

The number of handsets sold (FOMA+mova) increased to 6.24 million units (up 9.4% compared to the same period of the prior year), owing to an increase in the number of handsets sold for new FOMA subscriptions and handset upgrades by FOMA subscribers.

 

   

Churn rate for cellular (FOMA+mova) services for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was 0.85% (up 0.21 point compared to the same period of the prior year), due to the influence of the MNP. The churn rate for the three months ended June 30, 2007 decreased by 0.12 point from 0.97% for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

  * See the reconciliations to the most directly compatible financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP on page 17.

 

   

Net cash provided by operating activities was ¥300.7 billion (up 205.7% compared to the same period of the prior year). The increase in net cash provided by operating activities resulted mainly from a decrease in payment of income taxes to ¥95.1 billion from ¥218.6 billion in the same period of the prior year, after the deferred tax assets from the impairment of our investment in Hutchison 3G UK Holdings Limited was realized during the prior fiscal year. As the bank was closed both on the end of March and June 2007, which fell on weekends, cash in the amount of ¥210.0 billion including cellular revenues, which had been earned during the prior fiscal year, was received during the three months ended June 30, 2007, while the cash reception of ¥214.0 billion including cellular revenues, which were earned during the three months ended June 30, 2007, was deferred to July 2007.

 

   

Net cash used in investing activities decreased to ¥157.8 billion (down 40.3% compared to the same period of the prior year). An increase in acquisition of long-term investments was more than offset by a combination of a decrease in acquisitions of tangible and intangible assets and an increase in net cash inflows from changes of investments for cash management purposes.

 

   

Net cash used in financing activities decreased to ¥259.3 billion (down 8.2% compared to the same period of the prior year). An increase in payment for repurchase of our own stock was more than offset by a decrease of repayments for outstanding long-term debt. We spent ¥73.0 billion in the three months ended June 30, 2007 to repurchase our own stock in the market.

 

   

Free cash flows were ¥142.9 billion. Free cash flows excluding the effects of irregular factors and changes in investments for cash management purposes were ¥49.2 billion.

LOGO Explanation for forecasts of operation and other notes.

 

     The mobile communications 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 the progress vis-à-vis the projected full-year forecasts by disclosing actual results on a quarterly basis.

 

     With regard to the assumptions and other related matters concerning consolidated financial results forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2008, please refer to page 18.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of NTT DoCoMo, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively “DoCoMo”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The adoption of a new accounting standard and a subsequent event for the three months ended June 30, 2007 are as follows:

 

1. Adoption of a new accounting standard

 

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

 

Effective April 1, 2007, DoCoMo applied the Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return as well as provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The application of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on DoCoMo’s results of operations and financial position.

 

2. Subsequent event

 

Disbursement of substitutional portion to the NTT Plan

 

DoCoMo participates in a contributory defined benefit welfare pension plan sponsored by the NTT group (“NTT Plan”). On July 1, 2007, the NTT plan was granted an approval by the Japanese government, which permitted the NTT plan to be released from the past obligation to disburse the NTT Plan benefits covering the substitutional portion. No accounting should be recognized until the completion of the entire transfer. It is undetermined when the transfer of the benefit obligations and related plan assets will take place and what the net effect of settlement on DoCoMo’s result of operations and financial position will be. If the amount equivalent to the substitutional portion had been repaid on March 31, 2007, the estimated amount of such effect on DoCoMo’s results of operations would have been approximately ¥25 billion.

Definition and Calculation Methods of ARPU and MOU

 

1. Definition of ARPU and MOU

 

 

i)

ARPU (Average monthly Revenue Per Unit)1:

 

       Average monthly revenue per unit, or ARPU, is used to measure average monthly operating revenues attributable to designated services on a per user basis. ARPU is calculated by dividing various revenue items included in operating revenues from our wireless services, such as monthly charges, voice communication charges and packet communication charges, from designated services which are incurred consistently each month, by the number of active subscribers to the relevant services. Accordingly, the calculation of ARPU excludes revenues that are not representative of monthly average usage such as activation fees. We believe that our ARPU figures provide useful information to analyze the average usage of our subscribers 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. This definition applies to all ARPU figures hereinafter.

 

  ii) MOU (Minutes of Usage): Average monthly communication time per user.

 

2. ARPU Calculation Methods

 

  i) ARPU (FOMA + mova)

 

Aggregate ARPU (FOMA+mova) = Voice ARPU (FOMA+mova) + Packet ARPU (FOMA+mova)

 

Voice ARPU (FOMA+mova): Voice ARPU (FOMA+mova) Related Revenues (monthly charges, voice communication charges) / No. of active cellular phone subscribers (FOMA+mova)

 

Packet ARPU (FOMA+mova): {Packet ARPU (FOMA) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet communication charges)+ i-mode ARPU (mova) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet communication charges)}/ No. of active cellular phone subscribers (FOMA+mova)

 

i-mode ARPU (FOMA+mova) 2: i-mode ARPU (FOMA+mova) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet communication charges) / No. of active cellular phone subscribers (FOMA+mova)

 

ARPU generated purely from i-mode (FOMA+mova) 3: i-mode ARPU (FOMA+mova) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet communication charges) / No. of active i-mode subscribers (FOMA+mova)

 

  ii) ARPU (FOMA)

 

Aggregate ARPU (FOMA) = Voice ARPU (FOMA) + Packet ARPU (FOMA)

 

Voice ARPU (FOMA): Voice ARPU (FOMA) Related Revenues (monthly charges, voice communication charges) / No. of active cellular phone subscribers (FOMA)

 

Packet ARPU (FOMA): Packet ARPU (FOMA) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet communication charges) / No. of active cellular phone subscribers (FOMA)

 

i-mode ARPU (FOMA) 2: i-mode ARPU (FOMA) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet communication charges) / No. of active cellular phone subscribers (FOMA)

 

ARPU generated purely from i-mode (FOMA) 3: i-mode ARPU (FOMA) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet communication charges) / No. of active i-mode subscribers (FOMA)

 

  iii) ARPU (mova)

 

Aggregate ARPU (mova) = Voice ARPU (mova) + i-mode ARPU (mova)

 

Voice ARPU (mova): Voice ARPU (mova) Related Revenues (monthly charges, voice communication charges) / No. of active cellular phone subscribers (mova)

 

i-mode ARPU (mova) 2: i-mode ARPU (mova) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet communication charges) / No. of active cellular phone subscribers (mova)

 

ARPU generated purely from i-mode (mova) 3: i-mode ARPU (mova) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet communication charges) / No. of active i-mode subscribers (mova)

 

  iv) ARPU (PHS)

 

ARPU (PHS): ARPU (PHS) Related Revenues (monthly charges, voice communication charges) / No. of active PHS subscribers

 

3. Active Subscribers Calculation Methods

 

No. of active subscribers used in ARPU/MOU/Churn Rate calculations is the sum of No. of active subscribers4 for each month.


1 Communication Module service subscribers and the revenues thereof are not included in the ARPU and MOU calculations.
2 The denominator used in calculating i-mode ARPU (FOMA+mova, FOMA, mova) is the aggregate number of cellular subscribers to each service (FOMA+mova, FOMA, mova, respectively), regardless of whether i-mode service is activated or not.
3 ARPU generated purely from i-mode (FOMA+mova, FOMA, mova) is calculated using only the number of active i-mode subscribers as a denominator.
4 active subscribers = (No. of subscribers at the end of previous month + No. of subscribers at the end of current month) / 2

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 expected number of subscribers, and 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 report 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. As competition in the market becomes more fierce due to changes in the business environment caused by the Mobile Number Portability, new market entrants, competition from other cellular service providers or other technologies, and other factors, could limit our acquisition of new subscribers, retention of existing subscribers and ARPU, or may lead to an increase in our costs and expenses.

 

  2. The new services and usage patterns introduced by our corporate group may not develop as planned, which could limit our growth.

 

  3. The introduction or change of various laws or regulations 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.

 

  5. The W-CDMA technology that we use for our 3G system and/or mobile multimedia services may not be introduced by other overseas operators, which could limit our ability to offer international services to our subscribers.

 

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

 

  7. As electronic payment capability and many other new features are built into our cellular phones, and services of parties other than those belonging to our corporate group are provided through our cellular handsets, potential problems resulting from malfunctions, defects or loss of handsets, or imperfection of services provided by such other parties may arise, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

 

  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 other factors, 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 the right to license or otherwise use such intellectual property rights on acceptable terms or at all, which may limit our ability to offer certain technologies, products and/or services, and we may also be held liable for damage compensation if we infringe the intellectual property rights of others.

 

  11. Earthquakes, power shortages, malfunctioning of equipment, software bugs, computer viruses, cyber attacks, hacking, unauthorized access and other problems could cause systems failures in the networks required for the provision of service, disrupting our ability to offer services to our subscribers and may adversely affect our credibility or corporate image.

 

  12. Concerns about wireless telecommunications health risks may 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.

Definition and Calculation Methods of MOU and ARPU
MOU (Minutes of usage): Average communication time per one month per one user.
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 user
basis.
ARPU
is
calculated
by
dividing
various
revenue
items
included
in
our
wireless
services
revenues,
such
as
monthly
charges,
voice
transmission
charges and packet transmission charges, from designated services which are incurred consistently each month, by the number of active subscribers to
the relevant services.  Accordingly, the calculation of ARPU excludes revenues that are not representative of monthly average usage such as activation
fees.  We believe that our ARPU figures provide useful information to analyze the average usage of our subscribers. The revenue items included in the
numerators of our ARPU figures are based on our U.S. GAAP results of operations.
Aggregate ARPU (FOMA+mova):  Voice ARPU (FOMA+mova) + Packet ARPU (FOMA+mova)

i-mode ARPU (mova):
i-mode ARPU (mova) Related Revenues (monthly charges, packet transmission charges) / No. of active
cellular phone subscribers (mova)
Number of active subscribers used in ARPU and MOU calculations are as follows:
Quarterly data: sum of “No. of active subscribers in each month”* of the current quarter
Half-year data: sum of “No. of active subscribers in each month”* of the current  half
Full-year data: sum of “No. of active subscribers in each month”* of the current fiscal year
* “No. of active subscribers in each month”: (No. of subs at end of previous month + No. of subs at end of current month)/2
The revenues and no. of subscribers of Communication Module Service are not included in the above calculation of ARPU and MOU.
