NTT DOCOMO, INC. (the "Company") hereby announces that, further to its announcement on March 19, 2018 regarding the schedule of the Company's voluntary delisting of its ADSs from the NYSE, the Company has filed Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for delisting from the NYSE and deregistration from the SEC on April 2, 2018 (Eastern Time in the U.S.). Effective April 13, 2018 (Eastern Time in the U.S.), the Company has delisted its ADSs from the NYSE. On April 13, 2018 (Eastern Time in the U.S.), the Company will file Form 15F with the SEC to terminate its disclosure obligations under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
