Here is a look at Disney’s key metrics and business segments in 9 charts.

The 30,000-Foot View

Outside of pandemic volatility, Disney’s revenue has grown steadily over the past decade, but that doesn’t tell the full story.

Operating income dropped when parks were shut down and haven’t recovered because of streaming losses and less income from the cable business.

Net income has followed a similar trend and shows how Disney has gone from printing money to near breakeven.

Free cash flow is trending higher, but that may change with big parks investments (that I’ll get to below).

Not surprisingly, the return on assets has dropped over the last three years.

The Business Breakdown

Media has long been Disney’s core, but it’s struggling to generate income as streaming losses mount and linear TV operating income declines. Revenue, however, continues to grow.

Disney has had success in parks, which are generating record operating income and will get $60 billion in additional investment over the next decade.

I mentioned streaming losses, but the subscriber numbers are beaten only by Netflix. The challenge is turning this into a money-making business.

Did You Know?

Disney’s challenges are made worse by $47.2 billion in total debt, most of which was taken on after the 21st Century Fox acquisition.
