Notice regarding the Revision of Non-Consolidated Financial Forecasts

Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (“NTT”) hereby announces that, at a meeting of its Board of Directors held today, NTT resolved to revise its non-consolidated financial forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018, as stated below.

1.	Reason for the Revision

NTT’s Board of Directors resolved today that NTT may participate in the tender offer to sell 74,599,000 shares (approximately 200 billion yen) of its current holdings of NTT DOCOMO, INC. (“NTT DOCOMO”) common stock. Accordingly, NTT announced the following revisions to its non-consolidated financial forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018, previously announced on November 10, 2017.

NTT will not revise its consolidated financial forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018, because such events will not have a material impact on NTT’s consolidated results of operations.

2.	Revised Non-Consolidated Financial Forecasts for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2018

(Millions of yen)


	Operating Revenues		Operating Income		Recurring Profit		Net Income		Earnings per Share
Previous Forecast (A)		662,000		532,000		529,000		530,000		264.00 yen
Revised Forecast (B)		662,000		532,000		529,000		727,000		362.00 yen
Change (B-A)		0		0		0		197,000
Percentage Change (%)		0		0		0		37.2
(Reference) Results of the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017		474,380		339,686		334,901		288,117		140.77 yen

NTT expects to record an extraordinary gain of 200.0 billion yen in connection with the sale of its shares in NTT DOCOMO. The proceeds from the sale of NTT DOCOMO shares are calculated based on the assumption that all tendered shares will be purchased, and at the tender offer price of “2,681 yen/share”. All or a portion of tendered shares may not be purchased.

*	The figures for Earnings per Share (Previous Forecast) have been calculated based on NTT’s non-consolidated financial forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018, previously announced on November 10, 2017.
