- NTT, which currently owns DoCoMo at 66.2%, intends to purchase the remaining 33.8% after which it will wholly own the mobile company.
- An analysis of the Japanese 5G market and the competition shows that this acquisition makes sense.
- There are significant cost and revenue synergies to be gained through the creation of a giant 5G play in the Asia Pacific region.
- Still, benefiting from synergies is conditional as to how DoCoMo is integrated into the NTT ecosystem.
- Given the potential increase in revenue and profitability, NTT is a buy.
