NTT Docomo's financial results for the first time in 5 years Decrease in revenue and profit Apr 28 19:24
Regarding NTT Docomo's financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, sales and profits decreased for the first time in five years due to the effect of lowering communication charges.
According to the announcement, NTT Docomo's financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, were 4 years, with sales decreasing by 3.9% from the previous year to 4,651.2 billion yen, and operating income, which represents the profit of the main business, decreasing by 15.7% to 854.6 billion yen. It was the first time for sales and profits to decline.
This is because in June of last year, we separated the communication charges for mobile phones from the terminal charges and introduced a new charge plan that lowered communication charges.
On the other hand, it was revealed that the number of contracts for the new communication standard, 5G, which started service in March, was about 40,000 by 28th.
He explained that he was not significantly affected by the spread of the new coronavirus, and that he is aiming for 2.5 million cases this year. However, regarding the development of 5G base stations, if the spread of infection is prolonged, the construction will not proceed and the plan to install 10,000 stations by June next year may be affected.
Kazuhiro Yoshizawa, president of NTT DoCoMo, who had an online press conference, said, "There are many uncertainties about our business results this fiscal year, such as the number of customers visiting our stores being reduced due to the new coronavirus. ".
