NTT DOCOMO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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:

(1) Adoption of new accounting standards—

Accounting Standards Codification

Effective July 1, 2009, DOCOMO adopted the accounting pronouncement issued by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in June 2009 relating to “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” (“ASC”). This pronouncement established ASC as the single source of authoritative U.S. GAAP, and reorganized then-existing U.S. GAAP pronouncements into ASC. Upon the adoption of this pronouncement, the descriptions and references of accounting standards in DOCOMO’s financial statements are made in accordance with ASC. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have any impact on DOCOMO’s results of operations and financial position.

Business Combinations

Effective April 1, 2009, DOCOMO adopted the accounting pronouncement issued in December 2007 relating to business combinations. This pronouncement requires an acquirer in a business combination to generally recognize and measure all the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at their fair values as of the acquisition date. This pronouncement also requires the acquirer to recognize and measure as goodwill the excess of consideration transferred plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. The excess of the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired over consideration transferred plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date is required to be recognized and measured as a gain from a bargain purchase. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on DOCOMO’s results of operations and financial position.

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements

Effective April 1, 2009, DOCOMO adopted the accounting pronouncement issued in December 2007 relating to noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. This pronouncement requires noncontrolling interests held by parties other than the parent be clearly identified, labeled and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parent’s equity. This pronouncement also requires changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for as equity transactions. Upon the adoption of this pronouncement, “Noncontrolling interests”, which was previously referred to as “Minority interests” and classified between “Total liabilities” and “Shareholders’ equity” in the consolidated balance sheets, is now included as a separate component of “Equity”. In addition, “Net income” in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income now includes net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests, which was previously referred to as “Minority interests” and deducted. As a result, the adoption of this pronouncement changed the presentation and disclosure of noncontrolling interests in the consolidated financial statements retrospectively, but did not have a material impact on DOCOMO’s results of operations and financial position.

NTT DOCOMO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — (Continued)

Subsequent events

Effective April 1, 2009, DOCOMO adopted the accounting pronouncement issued in May 2009 relating to subsequent events. This pronouncement requires an entity to evaluate the effects of events that occur subsequent to the balance sheet date through the date the financial statements are either “issued” or “available to be issued” and disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have any impact on DOCOMO’s results of operations and financial position.

(2) Recent accounting pronouncements—

In October 2009, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements” (“ASU2009-13”). ASU2009-13 will require allocation of the overall consideration to each deliverable in an arrangement with multiple deliverables using the estimated selling price in the absence of vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence of selling price for deliverables and eliminate residual method of allocation. ASU2009-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. DOCOMO is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU2009-13 on its result of operations and financial position.

(3) Reclassifications—

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods’ consolidated financial statements to conform to the presentation used for the nine months ended December 31, 2009.

3. Equity:

Effective May 1, 2006, the Corporate Law of Japan provides that (i) dividends of earnings require approval at a general meeting of shareholders, (ii) interim cash dividends can be distributed upon the approval of the board of directors, if the articles of incorporation provide for such interim cash dividends and (iii) an amount equal to at least 10% of decrease in retained earnings by dividends payment be appropriated from retained earnings to a legal reserve up to 25% of capital stock. The legal reserve is available for distribution upon approval of the shareholders.

In the general meeting of shareholders held on June 19, 2009, the shareholders approved cash dividends of ¥100,224 million or ¥2,400 per share, payable to shareholders recorded as of March 31, 2009, which were declared by the board of directors on April 28, 2009. The source of dividends was “Retained earnings”. DOCOMO started to pay the dividends on June 22, 2009.

In order to improve capital efficiency and to implement flexible capital policies in accordance with the business environment, DOCOMO acquires treasury stock.

With regard to the acquisition of treasury stock, the Corporate Law of Japan provides that (i) it can be done according to the resolution of the general meeting of shareholders, and (ii) the acquisition of treasury stock through open market transactions can be done according to the resolution of the board of directors if the articles of incorporation contain such a provision. The provision is stipulated in DOCOMO’s articles of incorporation.

4. Segment reporting:

From a resource allocation perspective, DOCOMO views itself as having two business segments. The mobile phone business segment includes FOMA services, mova services, packet communications services, satellite mobile communications services, international services and the equipment sales related to these services. The miscellaneous businesses segment includes home shopping services provided mainly through TV media, high-speed internet connection and video-clip casting services for hotel facilities, advertisement services, development, sales and maintenance of IT systems, credit services and other miscellaneous services, which in the aggregate are not significant in amount. DOCOMO plans to terminate mova services on March 31, 2012.

DOCOMO identifies its reportable segments based on the nature of services included, as well as the characteristics of the telecommunications networks used to provide those services. DOCOMO’s management monitors and evaluates the performance of its segments based on the information that follows as derived from the Company’s management reports.

5. Contingencies:

Litigation—

As of December 31, 2009, DOCOMO had no litigation or claims outstanding, pending or threatened against which in the opinion of management would have a materially adverse effect on its results of operations or financial position.

Guarantees—

DOCOMO applies ASC 460 “Guarantees”. ASC 460 requires a company that issues or modifies a guarantee to recognize an initial liability for the fair value of the obligations it has undertaken and disclose that information in its financial statements.

DOCOMO enters into agreements in the normal course of business that provide guarantees for counterparties. These counterparties include subscribers, related parties, foreign wireless telecommunications service providers and other business partners.

DOCOMO provides subscribers with guarantees for product defects of cellular phone handsets sold by DOCOMO, but DOCOMO is provided with similar guarantees by the handset vendors and no liabilities were recognized for these guarantees.

Though the guarantees or indemnifications provided in transactions other than those with the subscribers are different in each contract, the likelihood of almost all of the performance of these guarantees or indemnifications are remote and amount of payments DOCOMO could be claimed for is not specified in almost all of the contracts. Historically, DOCOMO has not made any significant guarantee or indemnification payments under such agreements. DOCOMO evaluates the estimated fair value of the obligations related to these agreements is not significant. Accordingly, no liabilities were recognized for these obligations.

6. Fair value measurements:

ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date”. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value according to observability as follows:

		Level 1 —		Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
		Level 2 —		Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and inputs that are derived principally from observable markets data.
		Level 3 —		Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

ASC 820 also distinguishes assets and liabilities measured at fair value every period on a recurring basis from those measured on a nonrecurring basis under specific situation (for example, impaired assets).

(1) Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

DOCOMO’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis include available-for-sale securities and derivatives.

DOCOMO’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009 were as follows:

		Millions of yen

Available-for-sale securities—

Available-for-sale securities include marketable equity securities and debt securities, which are valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Therefore, these securities are classified as Level 1.

Derivatives—

Derivative instruments are interest rate swap agreements, foreign exchange forward contracts and foreign currency option contracts. The fair value of these derivatives is measured at quoted prices valued by financial institutions using observable market inputs. Therefore, these derivatives are classified as Level 2.

(2) Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and are not included in the table above. Such fair value measurements typically result from impairments. DOCOMO may be required to measure fair value of long-lived assets, equity securities whose fair values are not readily determinable, and other assets or liabilities on a nonrecurring basis.

DOCOMO omitted the disclosure about assets and liabilities measured on a nonrecurring basis because of its immateriality.

7. Subsequent event:

There had been no significant subsequent event to be disclosed that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date through February 3, 2010, when the accompanying quarterly consolidated financial statements were issued.
