Judgment day: Quarterly earnings for Disney largely disappoint as predicted and result in a drop in Disney stock prices in after hours trading
![]() |
We predicted it; now it's happened |
It's almost exactly a year to this day that the website Disneyleaks made its bold prediction a week ahead of Disney's August quarterly earnings call in 2015.
They said Disney's stocks would tank due to the revelations of major problems of cable subscriber losses at Disney's biggest profit-generating subsidiary ESPN, the 24-hour, all-sports cable network.
Since then Disney stock had tanked and has remained stagnant for over a year.
Now a year later, we made similarly bold predictions that Disney stocks will once again fall—when no one else would—on news that Disney's fundamentals were beginning to erode in all their divisions, except for their movie studios division.
Today, Disney announced their quarterly earnings ending on July 2, 2016 have largely fallen short of Wall Street projections across most of its divisions, except for its movie studios, during their busiest time of the year. It does appear that there are problems and issues in all of Disney's lines of businesses.
Disney reported quarterly earnings of $1.62 per share on $14.28 billion in revenues, which barely eked out Wall Street projections of $1.61 per share by a penny and $14.17 billion in revenues; however, the overall marginal gains were again exclusively attributable to a lopsided 39.6% increase in profits from the movie studios division, which is only Disney's third biggest revenue-generating and most volatile line of business.
Since Memorial Day, Disney has missed on two of three summer tent-pole releases, including bombing on Alice Through the Looking Glass and The BFG.
So far, only Finding Dory has been a bright spot this summer for Disney, which puts Disney's last summer tent-pole entry, Pete's Dragon, under immense pressure to deliver box office gold next week against continuing Olympics TV coverage.
As a result, Disney stock prices dropped by 1.80% in after hours trading as markets reacted badly to the mixed results from Disney. The rest of the U.S. stock markets closed up today.
The quarterly earnings call announcement was made after the closing bell of the trading day, so the bigger drop might come during the remainder of the week when trading resumes.
This is the second straight fiscal quarter that most of Disney's divisions reported less than stellar growth numbers in revenues, but no one else reported that Disney would falter this badly except for us.
Just looking at the numbers, we knew this bad news was coming since last month.
At earnings projections of $1.61 per share and $14.17 billion in revenue for this quarter—that would be an 11% and 8% increase from the same period last year—these benchmarks were just too lofty to meet for any company, and also puts immense pressure on Disney to perform for the next fiscal quarter.
Disney's primary cash cow ESPN again reported a significant decline in subscriber numbers, which now only reaches 88.8 million households, due to cord-cutting and cord-shaving continuing to erode ESPN's cable bundle subscriber base.
ESPN has lost 4 million subscribers so far just this year, according to A.C. Nielson, and that number is continuing to increase year after year. Cord-cutting is accelerating with no signs of slowing down.
Wunderlich Securities estimates more than 60% of ESPN's revenues come from affiliate fees, which in turn, come from cable bundle subscribers who pay $7.21 per month in ESPN affiliate fees, whether or not the subscriber watches the channel and before adding all the other fees from all the other ESPN channels, according to SNL Kagan.
Media Networks is Disney's largest revenue-generating division, accounting for 53% of Disney's operating income in 2015.
Whether or not online consumers, who are used to seeing broadcast sporting events for free, will pay a premium for this expensive mobile streaming online video sports service remains to be seen, and it also remains to be seen whether revenues generated by this untested online service can make up the difference in huge losses from cord-cutters for ESPN.
Is Disney down and out? We'll find out when the full market reacts this week after the news of the Q3 earnings call settle in |
Unfortunately, Disney doesn't disclose any of its hard volume numbers for investors—whether that is cable subscriber numbers or theme park attendance numbers—which they seem not to do for a reason.
It's pretty obvious why Disney isn't completely transparent in its disclosures with its shareholders about key sales numbers since those kinds of metrics generally are the best indicators of how good or bad business is doing, and nobody hides how bad business is doing from investors and security analysts better than Disney.
For instance, everyone knows that Hong Kong Disneyland is still precipitously dropping in park attendance; however, to make it seem like Hong Kong Disney has turned its fortunes around, when it really hasn't, Disney had massive layoffs at the resort, despite continuing declines in their attendance numbers.
Thus, the deceptive revenue turnaround appears to be a red herring for Hong Kong's slumping attendance numbers.
Disney unfortunately let it leak that Shanghai Disney's July attendance numbers were under a million visitors in the month of July, and Disney CEO Bob Iger even let it slip that attendance numbers at both Disney's U.S. parks were down more than 4%.
slower traffic to Disney World despite the fact that he denied that worries over the Zika virus, drop in tourism number from a number of Latin American countries due to political instability, poor currency exchange rates with the U.K. as a result of the Brexit vote, and competition from the Rio Olympics had any effect on lower visitor numbers to U.S. Disney theme parks.
Iger's implausible denials also come on the heels of Disney World announcing hotel room discounts during what is supposed to be Disney's busy Christmas holiday from Nov. 6 to Dec. 23, after resort management noticed a dramatic slow down in hotel bookings for the last four months in the entire Central Florida region.
His less than honest response was no different than when Iger said park attendance at Disneyland was not affected by the measles outbreak from early last year, despite the fact that numerous media outlets reported that attendance at Disneyland was down in the first and second quarters of last year in the fallout of the measles outbreak that began at Disneyland and spread to several and states and three countries.
This this appears to be a contradiction with what he reported with falling attendance numbers in the theme parks this quarter from the so-called "Florida problem" and suggests a full disclosure of the park attendance numbers would have settled the issue, once and for all.
But given the fact that Disney World laid off many workers and significantly decreased new hires and working hours for existing cast members, it suggests Disney World has already been significantly affected by the larger "Florida problem" of losing tourism dollars.
To distract away from some of these concerning attendance losses at the theme parks, Disney laid off all the imagineers who designed the Shanghai theme park, cancelled all the expensive Diamond Anniversary nighttime shows at Disneyland, and laid off many workers at their U.S. theme parks, just so that investors would overlook any news of slumping attendance numbers with news of artificially increased revenues at those parks; however, the problems with decreasing attendance numbers still remain an issue.
In other units, however, Disney simply wasn't fast enough to cover-up the damage done from their slumping businesses. Income for Consumer Products & Digitial Interactive unit was down 7% year over year while income for Disney's Media Networks unit was again flat on slumping ABC ratings numbers and flat cable TV revenues.
Cable Networks income only grew 1%, despite massive layoffs and budget cuts, and ad revenues for ABC TV fell more than 4% due to continuing double-digit ratings drop at the network.
The explanation for drooping sales at Consumer Products was attributable to sagging merchandise sales of other Disney intellectual properties (e.g., Star Wars, Marvel, Disney, and Pixar) after the losing momentum from Frozen movie merchandise last year.
Shanghai Disneyland has not take-off out of the gates in China yet, suggesting very difficult problems with promotion and marketing in mainland China |
Also particularly concerning for Disney was its less than stellar attendance numbers coming out of Shanghai Disneyland after their first month of operations in July, which is traditionally one of the busiest months of the year for any of the Disney theme parks worldwide, after Disney's CEO Bob Iger had hyped its newest $5.5 billion resort in mainland China as its biggest catalyst and future driver for growth at the House of Mouse.
Given the huge potential of the mainland Chinese market of being the second richest economy and the most populous nation on Earth, in arguably the most populous city on Earth, Disney had expectations that Shanghai Disney would very quickly become the most visited theme park in the world; however, things have not materialized to justify those lofty expectations.
Disney initially estimated that Shanghai Disneyland would see at least 15 to 30 million visitors a year. In comparison, Disney World's Magic Kingdom, the most visited theme park in the world, saw a record 20.4 million visitors last year, according to third-party estimates released by Themed Entertainment Association (TEA.)
Disney reported less than a million visitors in the month of July without actually going into the specifics on their actual attendance numbers from the park; however, there is enough information there, knowing that the actual numbers are less than a million, to make some educated estimations on Shanghai's projections for the upper limits on its yearly attendance numbers.
Clearly, these are concerning numbers for Disney since there were concerns already that opening a Disneyland in mainland China would severely impact the operations of Disney's already struggling Hong Kong Disneyland, which will have to compete with Shanghai Disneyland for the same mainland Chinese tourists' Yuan.
In fact, the opening of Shanghai Disney may put in the final nail to the long-struggling Hong Kong Disney theme park.
Thus, it was paramount for Shanghai Disney to be a runaway success for Disney from the get-go to offset problems created in cannibalizing Hong Kong Disney's attendance numbers.
There are even reports from the media that Chinese visitors are fed up with Shanghai Disney's numerous glitches, inflated prices, and have already become less than enthused by what the park actually has to offer.
Thus, Disney's marketing disadvantage in mainland China seems to have leveled the playing field somewhat for other local theme park developers, such as the Dalian Wanda Group, to compete head-on with Disney with an advantage in the sheer numbers of theme parks they have or will build in China and by offering significantly cheaper ticket prices.
In addition, the lack of copyright and trademark protections in mainland China seem to have also leveled the playing field for competitors to feature the same Disney-owned characters in their theme parks and sell cheaper, pirated, knock-off Disney products to Chinese consumers.
Instead, it may take years, if not decades, before Disney will make back its money on its investment, much like its other struggling foreign theme park failures, such as Hong Kong Disney and EuroDisney. Thus far, Disney's all of foreign theme park operations—with the exception of Tokyo Disney which is not even owned by Disney—have been a total train wreck.
So, the big question is: How will Disney stocks do in the future, especially given the fact that the rest of the stock market is doing so well?
![]() |
It looks like Disney stocks will remain stagnant, or even drop, for some time. |
The movie sector, which is a distant third in the amount of revenues generated by various divisions at Disney, is too highly volatile to expect reliable double-digit growth numbers for the Empire of Mouse, quarter after quarter, especially in the face of the rapidly changing digital landscape of booming illegal video streaming services and rampant video piracy taking place online.
There are still numerous unsolved problems in the media networks sector, especially with dwindling subscribers for Disney's biggest cash cow ESPN and dipping ratings at the ABC TV network.
Disney is merely dipping their toes in the untested online streaming video service business with their latest experiment BAMTech, as they have before with Maker Studios, Hulu, and Vice Media. Thus, this is not a significant strategic pivot in finding a major catalyst for growth for Disney as no one will interpret this move as one in which Disney embraces cord-cutters.
Disney is in danger of falling well behind their competitors (e.g., Time-Warner, Netflix, etc.) in offering digital, on-demand, stand-alone, over-the-top services for any of its content. Disney's first baby steps in its proposed digital stand-alone online service for a very limited version ESPN has, so far, been met with extreme skepticism by Wall Street.

Disney's first baby steps in its proposed digital stand-alone online service for a very limited version ESPN has, so far, been met with extreme skepticism by Wall Street.
Consumer products and digital interactive units were down significantly by 7%, suggesting the real story here that consumers have become blasé about Disney various movie franchises (e.g., Frozen, Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, and other Disney intellectual properties) as merchandise is not flying off the shelves anymore.
And decreasing enthusiasm from the Chinese and a lack of media penetration in mainland China may stifle growth numbers in Shanghai Disney for a number of quarters before Disney makes its money back on its $5.5 billion Chinese investment.
Based on what we see so far, we expect Disney stock to remain stagnant or even drop as there are few catalysts to be excited about that will demonstrate any significant growth for Disney's stock prices.
