- Experiences delivered a record $10.0 billion in revenue and $3.3 billion in operating income, aided by higher guest spending and cruise capacity, with management guiding to modest growth next quarter due to weaker international visitation to U.S. parks.
- Disney+ and Hulu revenue grew 11% to $5.35 billion as streaming operating income surged 72% to $450 million for an 8.4% margin, and the company reiterated a 10% streaming margin target for fiscal 2026.

- Sports operating income dropped 23% to $191 million after a roughly 15‑day YouTube TV blackout shaved about $110 million from the quarter, and multiple reports say the board is close to selecting Bob Iger’s successor with Josh D’Amaro seen as the front‑runner.
