Briefing

Walt Disney reported Q3 2026 earnings with total revenue of $25.2 billion and net income of $2.8 billion.

The Walt Disney Company delivered revenue growth of 7% year-over-year in Q3 2026, driven by increases in subscription and affiliate fees, theme park admissions, and resorts and vacations revenue. Net income attributable to Disney was $2.6 billion, down from the prior year due to a non-cash tax benefit in the prior period and an impairment charge in the current quarter. Segment operating income rose across Entertainment and Experiences, partially offset by lower Sports results.

  • Total revenue reached $25.2 billion, up 7% from Q3 2025, with Entertainment at $11.3 billion, Sports at $4.5 billion, and Experiences at $10.0 billion.
  • Diluted EPS was $1.51 compared to $2.92 in the prior-year quarter, impacted by the comparison to a $3.3 billion non-cash tax benefit.
  • Experiences segment operating income grew 20% to $3.0 billion, supported by higher theme park attendance, guest spending, and cruise operations.
  • The company completed the Fubo and NFL Transactions, contributing to revenue growth but also resulting in non-cash tax charges.
