NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of presentation:

The accompanying quarterly consolidated financial statements of NTT DOCOMO, INC. and its subsidiaries (“DOCOMO”) were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain disclosures required by U.S. GAAP have been omitted. Since DOCOMO’s American Depositary Shares were listed on the New York Stock Exchange in March 2002, DOCOMO has prepared its consolidated financial statements pursuant to the terminology, forms and preparation methods required in order to issue American Depositary Shares, which are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States of America.

2. Summary of significant accounting and reporting policies:

(a) Adoption of new accounting standards

Balance sheet classification of deferred taxes —

Effective April 1, 2017, DOCOMO adopted prospectively Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-17 “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.” This ASU requires that all deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheet.

(b) Recently issued accounting standards

Revenue from Contracts with Customers —

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which requires an entity to recognize the amount to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective.

The FASB also issued ASU 2016-08 “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net),” ASU 2016-10 “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,” ASU 2016-12 “Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients,” ASU 2016-20 “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606,” and ASU 2017-05 “Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets” in March, April, May and December 2016, and February 2017, respectively, to partially amend ASU 2014-09.

On August 12, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date,” and deferred the effective date of the ASU by one year. Consequently, the standard is expected to take effect for DOCOMO on April 1, 2018 and early adoption with original effective date for periods beginning April 1, 2017 is permitted.

The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are the full retrospective method, or the modified retrospective method. Under the full retrospective method, all periods presented will be updated upon adoption to conform to the new standard and a cumulative adjustment for effects on periods prior to the reporting period will be recorded to retained earnings at the beginning of the initial reporting period. Under the modified retrospective approach, the current reporting period will be updated to conform to the new standard and a cumulative adjustment for effects of applying the new standard to periods prior to the reporting period that includes the date of initial application is recorded to retained earnings as of the date of initial application, and also incremental disclosures related to the amount affected by the application of this new standard are required. DOCOMO has not decided on a transition method and are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on DOCOMO’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The impact on revenue resulting from the application of the new standard will be subject to assessments that are dependent on many variables, including, but not limited to, the terms, the transaction prices including discounts and the mixture of the goods and services of DOCOMO’s contractual arrangements. While DOCOMO is continuing to assess all potential impacts resulting from the application of the new standard, DOCOMO believes that the most significant impacts may include the following items:

DOCOMO has established a team to implement the introduction of the new standard. DOCOMO is in the process of implementing changes to DOCOMO’s systems and setting up reporting processes and internal controls for the adoption of the new revenue recognition standard.

Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities —

On January 5, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which makes targeted improvements to the accounting for, and presentation and disclosure of, financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 requires that most equity investments be measured at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 does not affect the accounting for investments that would otherwise be consolidated or accounted for under the equity method. The new standard also affects the recognition of changes in fair value of financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. The new standard is effective for DOCOMO on April 1, 2018. DOCOMO is currently evaluating the effect of adopting the ASU.

Lease —

On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Lease,” which requires all lessees to recognize the right-of-use asset and lease liability, principally. The new standard is effective for DOCOMO on April 1, 2019. DOCOMO is currently evaluating the effect of adopting the ASU.

Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment —

On January 26, 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, the amendments in this update require that an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and an entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The amendments in this update are effective for DOCOMO on April 1, 2020. Early adoption of the standard for goodwill impairment tests with measurement dates after January 1, 2017 would also be permitted. DOCOMO is currently evaluating the effect of adopting the ASU.
