RiverPark Large Growth Fund stated the following regarding The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) in its third quarter 2025 investor letter:
“The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS): DIS was a top five detractor during the quarter despite solid 3Q25 results. Revenue of $23.65 billion modestly missed consensus, but segment operating income of $4.6 billion and EPS of $1.61 were ahead of forecasts as strength in Sports, Experiences, and Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) more than offset softness in Linear Networks and Content Sales & Licensing. Management raised full-year EPS guidance to $5.85 (from $5.75 previously), driven by an improved DTC EBIT outlook of $1.3 billion (vs. $1.0 billion prior) and stronger expected Experiences growth at 8% year-over-year (vs. the prior high-end of 6–8%). Still, the stock declined modestly as investors digested mixed key performance indicators in the Parks segment, with flat domestic attendance versus expectations for +3–4% growth.
