THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY REPORTS

THIRD QUARTER AND NINE MONTHS EARNINGS FOR FISCAL 2017

BURBANK, Calif. The Walt Disney Company today reported quarterly earnings for its third fiscal
quarter ended July 1, 2017. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter decreased 5% to $1.51 from
$1.59 in the prior-year quarter. Excluding certain items affecting comparability(1), EPS for the quarter
decreased 2% to $1.58 from $1.62 in the prior-year quarter. Diluted EPS for the nine months ended July 1,
2017 decreased to $4.55 from $4.63. Excluding certain items affecting comparability(1), EPS for the nine
months increased to $4.63 from $4.61.
Today we announced a strategic shift in the way we distribute our content. The media landscape is
increasingly defined by direct relationships between content creators and consumers, and our control of
BAMTechs full array of innovative technology will give us the power to forge those connections, along
with the flexibility to quickly adapt to shifts in the market, said Robert A. Iger, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, The Walt Disney Company. This acquisition and the launch of our direct-to-consumer
services mark an entirely new growth strategy for the Company, one that takes advantage of the incredible
opportunity that changing technology provides us to leverage the strength of our great brands.
Our results for the quarter reflect the underlying strength of our brands and franchises, and our
continued investment in high-quality content. Our ability to successfully execute on our core strategy,
coupled with our plans for new direct-to-consumer offerings, give us continued confidence in our ability
to drive shareholder value, said Christine M. McCarthy, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer, The Walt Disney Company.
The following table summarizes the third quarter and nine-month results for fiscal 2017 and 2016 (in

$ 1,842 $ 2,372 (22) % $ 5,427 $ 6,083 (11) %
Cable Networks
Cable Networks revenues for the quarter decreased 3% to $4.1 billion and operating income
decreased 23% to $1.5 billion. Lower operating income was due to a decline at ESPN.
The decrease at ESPN was due to higher programming costs, lower advertising revenue and
severance and contract termination costs, partially offset by affiliate revenue growth. The programming

2
cost increase was due to a contractual rate increase for NBA programming, partially offset by a decrease
in the cost of time for ESPN programming aired on the ABC Television Network. Lower advertising
revenue was due to a decrease in average viewership and lower units delivered including the impact of
two fewer NBA finals games, partially offset by higher rates. Affiliate revenue growth was due to
contractual rate increases, partially offset by a decline in subscribers.
Broadcasting
Broadcasting revenues for the quarter increased 4% to $1.8 billion and operating income decreased
22% to $253 million. The decrease in operating income was due to lower advertising revenue, a decrease
in the cost charged to ESPN for programming aired on the ABC Television Network and higher
programming costs. These decreases were partially offset by affiliate revenue growth. The decrease in
advertising revenues reflected lower network impressions, partially offset by higher network rates. Lower
network impressions reflected a decrease in average viewership, partially offset by an increase in units
delivered. Higher programming costs were due to a higher cost mix of programming aired in the current
quarter. Affiliate revenue growth was due to contractual rate increases.
Equity in the Income of Investees
Equity in the income of investees decreased 18% to $127 million due to a loss from our investment in
BAMTech, which we acquired in August 2016 and January 2017, and higher losses from Hulu, partially
offset by higher income at A+E Television Networks (A+E). The loss at BAMTech reflected investments
in their technology platform and the launch of new clients. The decrease at Hulu was due to higher
marketing and labor costs, partially offset by higher subscription revenue. The increase at A+E was due to
lower programming costs, partially offset by lower advertising revenue.

Parks and Resorts

Parks and Resorts revenues for the quarter increased 12% to $4.9 billion and segment operating
income increased 18% to $1,168 million. Operating income growth for the quarter reflected an increase at
our international operations, while results at our domestic operations were comparable to the prior-year
quarter. Segment results benefited from the timing of the Easter holiday, which fell in the third quarter of
the current year compared to the second quarter of the prior year.
Operating income growth at our international operations was due to increases at Shanghai Disney
Resort and Disneyland Paris. The increase at Shanghai Disney Resort reflected a full quarter of operations
in the current year compared to the prior-year quarter, which included pre-opening costs. Higher operating
income at Disneyland Paris was due to increases in guest spending and attendance, partially offset by
higher costs for new guest offerings, including the 25th Anniversary celebration. The increase in guest
spending was primarily due to higher average ticket prices and increases in food, beverage and
merchandise spending.
At our domestic operations, increased costs were essentially offset by increases in guest spending and
volumes. Higher costs were primarily due to labor and other cost inflation, increased operations support
costs, new guest offerings and the dry-dock of the Disney Fantasy in the current quarter. Costs for new
guest offerings were driven by the launch of the expansion of Disneys Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney
World Resort, including the related marketing costs. Guest spending growth was due to increases in
average ticket prices for sailings on our cruise ships and admission to our theme parks, as well as higher
average daily hotel room rates and food and beverage spending. Higher volumes were due to attendance
growth, partially offset by a decrease in occupied room nights and lower passenger cruise days due to the
dry-dock of the Disney Fantasy. The decrease in occupied room nights was due to refurbishments and
conversions to vacation club units.

3
Studio Entertainment
Studio Entertainment revenues for the quarter decreased 16% to $2.4 billion and segment operating
income decreased 17% to $639 million. Lower operating income was due to decreased theatrical and
home entertainment distribution results, partially offset by growth in TV/SVOD distribution and lower
film cost impairments.
The decrease in theatrical distribution results was due to the performance of our releases in the
current quarter compared to the prior-year quarter. This decrease was partially offset by the impact of
marketing costs in the prior-year quarter for DreamWorks The BFG, which released at the end of the third
quarter of fiscal 2016. There was no comparable title in the current quarter as the Company stopped
distributing new DreamWorks releases after the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. Significant releases in the
current quarter included Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No
Tales and Cars 3, while the prior-year quarter included Captain America: Civil War, The Jungle Book,
Finding Dory and Alice Through the Looking Glass.
The decrease in home entertainment results was due to lower unit sales driven by the performance of
Star Wars: The Force Awakens in the prior-year quarter compared to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story in the
current quarter. Other significant titles in the current quarter included Beauty and the Beast and Moana,
whereas the prior-year quarter included Zootopia.
Higher TV/SVOD distribution results were primarily due to an increase in domestic rates,
international growth and the timing of domestic title availabilities.

Consumer Products & Interactive Media

Consumer Products & Interactive Media revenues for the quarter decreased 5% to $1.1 billion and
segment operating income increased 12% to $362 million. Higher operating income was due to increases
at our merchandise licensing and games businesses.
The increase at merchandise licensing was primarily due to lower expenses driven by a decrease in
general and administrative costs. Higher operating income at our games business was due to decreased
product development costs and higher minimum guarantee shortfall recognition.

OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Corporate and Unallocated Shared Expenses

Corporate and unallocated shared expenses decreased $60 million to $99 million in the current
quarter due to lower incentive compensation costs.

4
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net was as follows (in millions):
Quarter Ended
July 1, July 2,
2017 2016 Change
Interest expense $ (134) $ (88) (52) %
Interest and investment income 17 18 (6) %
Interest expense, net $ (117) $ (70) (67) %

The increase in interest expense was due to higher average debt balances, lower capitalized interest
and higher average interest rates. Capitalized interest was lower due to the completion of the majority of
construction at Shanghai Disney Resort in the prior-year quarter.

Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate was as follows:
Quarter Ended
July 1, July 2,
2017 2016 Change
Effective income tax rate 31.6% 35.2% 3.6 ppt

The decrease in the effective income tax rate for the quarter was primarily due to a favorable impact
from a change in our estimated full year effective income tax rate, a decrease in foreign losses for which
we are not recognizing a tax benefit and a benefit from the adoption of a new accounting pronouncement.
The change in our estimated full year effective income tax rate was driven by an increase in our
estimated benefit related to qualified domestic production activities. The estimated full year effective rate
is used to determine the quarterly income tax provision and is adjusted each quarter based on information
available at the end of that quarter.
In the first quarter of the current year, the Company adopted new accounting guidance, which
requires that excess tax benefits or tax deficiencies on employee share-based awards be included in
Income taxes in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. These amounts were previously
recorded in Common stock in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. An excess tax benefit arises
when the value of an employee share-based award on the exercise or vesting date is higher than the fair
value on the grant date. A tax deficiency arises when the value on the exercise or vesting date is lower
than the grant date fair value.

Noncontrolling Interests
Quarter Ended
July 1, July 2,
(in millions) 2017 2016 Change
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests $ 108 $ 115 6%

The decrease in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the quarter was driven by the
impact of lower net income at ESPN, partially offset by the impact of improvements at Shanghai Disney
Resort and Disneyland Paris.
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is determined on income after royalties and
management fees, financing costs and income taxes.

Cash Flow
Cash provided by operations and free cash flow were as follows (in millions):

Free cash flow (1) $ 6,103 $ 5,924 $ 179

(1)
Free cash flow is not a financial measure defined by GAAP. See the discussion on pages 7 through 9.

Cash provided by operations for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 decreased by $0.8 billion from
$9.6 billion in the prior-year period to $8.8 billion in the current period. The decrease was due to lower
segment operating results, higher film and television production spending and higher pension plan
contributions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release presents EPS excluding the impact of certain items affecting comparability, free
cash flow and aggregate segment operating income, all of which are important financial measures for the
Company, but are not financial measures defined by GAAP.
These measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures and
are not presented as alternative measures of EPS, cash flow or net income as determined in accordance
with GAAP. EPS excluding certain items affecting comparability, free cash flow and aggregate segment
operating income as we have calculated them may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported
by other companies.
EPS excluding certain items affecting comparability The Company uses EPS excluding certain items to
evaluate the performance of the Companys operations exclusive of certain items affecting comparability
of results from period to period. The Company believes that information about EPS exclusive of these
items is useful to investors, particularly where the impact of the excluded items is significant in relation to
reported earnings, because the measure allows for comparability between periods of the operating
performance of the Companys business and allows investors to evaluate the impact of these items
separately from the impact of the operations of the business.

committed insurance recoveries, incurred in connection with the settlement of litigation ($177 million).
(5)
For the quarter ended July 2, 2016, items effecting comparability included restructuring and impairment charges ($44
million) in connection with shutting down certain international film production operations.
(6)
For the nine-month period ended July 2, 2016, items affecting comparability included the Companys share of a net gain
recognized by A+E Television Networks in connection with their acquisition of an interest in Vice Group Holding, Inc.
(Vice Gain) ($332 million), a charge in connection with the discontinuation of our Infinity console game business (Infinity
Charge) ($147 million) and restructuring and impairment charges ($125 million) due to an investment impairment, charges
in connection with shutting down certain international film production operations and contract termination and severance
costs.

8
Free cash flow The Company uses free cash flow (cash provided by operations less investments in
parks, resorts and other property), among other measures, to evaluate the ability of its operations to
generate cash that is available for purposes other than capital expenditures. Management believes that
information about free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available to
service debt obligations, make strategic acquisitions and investments and pay dividends or repurchase
shares.
Aggregate segment operating income The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments
based on segment operating income, and management uses aggregate segment operating income as a
measure of the performance of operating businesses separate from non-operating factors. The Company
believes that information about aggregate segment operating income assists investors by allowing them to
evaluate changes in the operating results of the Companys portfolio of businesses separate from non-
operational factors that affect net income, thus providing separate insight into both operations and the
other factors that affect reported results.
A reconciliation of segment operating income to net income is as follows (in millions):
