Information Revolution - Happiness for everyone

We at the SoftBank Group continue to hold this vision close to our hearts as we conduct our business.

In our Mobile Communications segment, the long-awaited Platinum Band and next-generation high-speed data communication services such as SoftBank 4G LTE have started in earnest. As a result, our customers can now connect more easily and enjoy a smooth, fast communication experience. Our entire Group will keep working tirelessly to ensure that all our customers can continue to enjoy the new mobile Internet world to the full.

Furthermore, in October 2012, we announced business integration with eAccess Ltd. and the strategic acquisition of Sprint Nextel Corporation. The addition of these two companies to the SoftBank Group will make our mobile business the third largest in the world by sales.

The SoftBank Group not only provides telecommunications services, but also a variety of Internet services worldwide, and has led the information-communication business. This year marks the start of our full-scale global deployment as we venture further into the US market and enter a new phase.
This is another major challenge for the Group, but by working hard and learning from each other we will seek to go all the way and pursue our Corporate Philosophy on an even larger stage.
