More about the company
Founded on October 16, 1923, as an animation studio by brothers Walt and Roy Oliver Disney as Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, Disney operated under the names Walt Disney Studio and Walt Disney Productions before adopting its current name in 1986. In 1928, Disney established itself as a leader in the animation industry with the short film Steamboat Willie. The film used synchronized sound to become the first post-produced sound cartoon, and popularized Mickey Mouse, who became Disney's mascot and corporate icon.

Diluted EPS $1.51 vs $2.92
Verdict: a strong operating quarter — revenue up 7% and total segment operating income up 21% led by Experiences (cruise expansion, parks pricing) and an Entertainment rebound — was masked at the GAAP net-income line by an $812M A+E investment impairment and the absence of last year's one-time $3.3B non-cash Hulu tax benefit, driving diluted EPS down 48% even as adjusted EPS rose 28%.

Heads-up
- net income fell 50% y/y in Q3 FY2026
Most likely because Q3 FY26 includes an $812M non-cash impairment of Disney's 50% A+E Global Media investment (agreed for sale to Hearst for ~$1.2B); segment mix: Experiences operating income +20% (incl. ~4pts from a ~$100M tariff refund) on cruise fleet expansion and pricing. Based on the Q3 FY2026 report.
