On August 5, Walt Disney rose 4.49% in regular trading, trading at $101.665/share, with turnover of $192 million. The rally was driven by the company's fiscal Q3 earnings release before the bell, in which adjusted EPS of $2.06 significantly exceeded the consensus estimate of $1.86, representing a 28% year-over-year increase.
Revenue for the quarter came in at $25.25 billion, up 7% year-over-year, primarily fueled by an 11% revenue increase in the domestic parks and experiences segment, including the expanding Disney Cruise Line portfolio. The company reaffirmed full-year guidance with operating cash flow of at least $19 billion and capital expenditure of approximately $9 billion, while maintaining its expectation of double-digit adjusted EPS growth in fiscal 2027. Additionally, Disney announced a strategic content partnership with TikTok and agreed to sell its 50% stake in A+E Global Media to Hearst for approximately $1.2 billion. Management also highlighted enterprise-wide cost reduction initiatives covering headcount optimization and SG&A compression.
