Payment Received in Respect of Arbitration Award Regarding Stake in Tata Teleservices
NTT DOCOMO, INC. announced today that on October 31, 2017, it received from Tata Sons Limited (“Tata Sons”) payment of the award amount in
accordance with the High Court of Delhi’s decision regarding DOCOMO’s stake in Tata Teleservices Limited (“TTSL”). DOCOMO previously announced the court’s decision in a Form
6-K
filing
entitled “Court Decision Regarding Stake in Tata Teleservices” filed on May 1, 2017.
1. Amount Received by DOCOMO
¥144.9 billion
*1
2. Transfer of TTSL Shares
Concurrent with the receipt of the
above amount, all shares in TTSL held by DOCOMO have been transferred to Tata Sons and companies designated by Tata Sons.
3. Financial Impact and Partial
Adjustment to Forecasts of Consolidated Financial Results
DOCOMO expects to include the award amount of ¥144.9 billion in other income on its
consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ending December 31, 2017.
Concurrent with the receipt of the above award amount, all
shares in TTSL held by DOCOMO have been transferred to Tata Sons and companies designated by Tata Sons. Upon the transfer of DOCOMO’s shares in TTSL, DOCOMO no longer accounts for investments in TTSL under the equity method. Accordingly, DOCOMO
expects to include a loss on transfer of investments in affiliates of ¥29.8 billion, equal to the reclassification adjustments of foreign currency translation adjustments, in other expense on its consolidated financial statements for the
three-month period ending December 31, 2017.
As a result, net income attributable to NTT DOCOMO, INC. will be adjusted to ¥740 billion and
free cash flow will be adjusted to ¥855 billion in DOCOMO’s forecasts of consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018.
