A media leviathan The Walt Disney Company controls several entertainment and media enterprises with a solid global presence. Arguably, its most famous facet remains Walt Disney Studios, which, as of late 2024, included benchmark companies such as 20th Century Studios, Marvel, Pixar, and Searchlight. Despite a 17 percent increase in box office revenue across the United States and Canada in 2024, that year's figure remained below the amount that Disney's studio division amassed in 2019, before the pandemic. Still, Disney alone accounted for a significant share of the box office revenue in the U.S. and Canada in 2024, driven by the success of "Frozen 2" and "Moana 2. Parks and recreation The holding is also known for its theme parks, which continued to bounce back from the coronavirus outbreak and its subsequent mobility restrictions. In 2023, the Magic Kingdom theme park, located at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, was the most visited Disney theme park location in the United States, with over 17.7 million visitors. Similarly, The Walt Disney Company's net income remained far from pre-pandemic standards. The figure amounted to about 4.97 billion dollars in the fiscal year 2024 – only a little more than one-third of the record-high 12.6-billion-dollar result seen in the fiscal year 2018.

In the fiscal year 2024, The Walt Disney Company's total segment operating income amounted to over 15.6 billion U.S. dollars, of which more than 9.2 billion (or 59 percent) came from its experiences division. The entertainment and sports segments accounted for the remaining 6.3 billion dollars. Disney's record-high revenue and solid assets Disney's global revenue reached an all-time high in the fiscal year 2023. The result surpassed 88 billion dollars, up seven percent from the 82-million-dollar revenue reported a year earlier. Another indicator grew more modestly in the same period. Disney's total assets increased by 0.9 percent between fiscal years 2022 and 2023 to over 205 billion dollars. The slow recovery of Disney's income and EPS Disney's net income decreased by 25 percent to nearly 2.3 billion dollars in the fiscal year 2023 compared to year prior. Additionally, the figure amounted to 21 percent of the 11-billion-dollar income reported in 2019, before the pandemic outbreak. Similarly, Disney's earnings per share (EPS) fell 26 percent to 1.29 dollars in 2023 – little more than 20 percent of the 6.27 dollars gained per share of common stock four years before.

How much does Disney make a year? The Walt Disney Company generated a net income of 4.97 billion U.S. dollars in the fiscal year of 2024. This marks a growth of over seven billion compared to 2020 when the company suffered a loss due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the parks, experiences, and products segment brought in around 10 billion U.S. dollars less in 2020 than in 2019. The Walt Disney Company reports its numbers based on fiscal years that end late September/early October of the corresponding calendar year. Disney’s growing dominance After a wave of acquisitions in recent years and its plans to launch its own streaming service Disney+ to rival Netflix, Disney’s growth seems almost unstoppable. The company holds stakes in ESPN, acquired 21st Century Fox in 2019 (ten years after its acquisition of Marvel Entertainment) and also took on LucasFilm Ltd. Opinions on Disney’s expansion are mixed, with diehard Hollywood fans expressing concern that the company’s constant growth and the conglomeration of individual studios will deeply affect content and change the structure of Hollywood. Indeed, this has already happened to an extent, but with so many companies under one umbrella (that is, Disney), it will be curious to see whether the movie industry in particular will change as Disney’s stronghold over the industry increases.

The Walt Disney Company's annual revenue was $91.36B in fiscal year 2024. The annual revenue increased $2.46B from $88.90B (in 2023) to $91.36B (in 2024), representing a 2.77% year-over-year growth.

In 2024, the Walt Disney Company generated a total revenue of 10.28 billion U.S. dollars in Europe, but the company's largest region was the Americas, which generated a revenue of about 72.16 billion U.S. dollars that year.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in Disney. It showcases annual income, providing insights into gender-specific income distributions and the disparities between full-time and part-time work. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into gender-based pay disparity trends and explore the variations in income for male and female individuals.

Key observations: Insights from 2023

Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In Disney, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $34,688 for males and $21,875 for females.

These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in Disney. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 63 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 37%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the town of Disney.

- Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In Disney, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $63,750, while females earned $35,000, leading to a 45% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 55 cents for each dollar earned by men in full-time roles. This level of income gap emphasizes the urgency to address and rectify this ongoing disparity, where women, despite working full-time, face a more significant wage discrepancy compared to men in the same employment roles.

Remarkably, across all roles, including non-full-time employment, women displayed a similar gender pay gap percentage. This indicates a consistent gender pay gap scenario across various employment types in Disney, showcasing a consistent income pattern irrespective of employment status.

The Walt Disney Company's worldwide operating income amounted to 15.60 billion U.S. dollars in 2024, of which 1.37 billion U.S. dollars were derived from operations in Europe. Operating income from the Americas came to 12.92 billion U.S. dollars that year.

The joint venture entered into by Reliance Industries-owned Viacom 18 and Disney's Star India in 2024 will see the merging of two major video platforms - JioCinema and Disney+Hotstar. The combined revenue of these platforms figured just under three billion U.S. dollars in 2023. The overall revenue earned by India's leading video platforms amounted to 8.8 billion U.S. dollars that year.

In the fourth fiscal quarter of 2024, the Walt Disney Company's experiences segment reported a net operating income of about 1.66 billion U.S. dollars. At the same time, the entertainment segment's net operating income amounted to around 1.07 billion dollars.

In the fourth fiscal quarter of 2024, the Walt Disney Company reported a net income of 460 million U.S. dollars, up from a net income of 264 million U.S. dollars in the same quarter of the previous year. Film studio's success The Walt Disney Company is well-known all over the world and has been famous for decades. Founded by Walt and Roy O. Disney in 1923, the company is popular among children and adults alike for its detailed cartoons as well as countless feature-length animations and shorts. For its contributions to the silver screen, Walt Disney Studios received 10 Academy Award nominations in 2023, as well as two wins. However, in 2025, the studio received just one nomination, marking a significant decline compared to previous years. Brand strength Not only is the company a household name loved for its merchandise, theme parks, and near timeless appeal, it is also one of the most valuable U.S. brands in the world. Despite the death of Walt Disney in 1966, the company has gone from strength to strength and kept up with the pace of every fast-moving market of which it is a part, with the most recent addition being streaming service Disney+. The Walt Disney Company has multiple assets, and its entertainment holdings include Marvel Studios, Lucasfilm, 20th Century Fox, Pixar, and ESPN Inc.

In the fourth quarter of 2024, Amazon Prime Video was the most popular subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) service in the United States with a market share of 22 percent, based on the users' interest in adding content to their watch lists of certain streaming platforms. Netflix followed closely with a market share of 21 percent. Subscription streaming market – a money-losing business? While subscription streaming platforms increased their subscriber bases in the years 2020 and 2021 due to the measures taken during the COVID-19 pandemic, 2022 and 2023 saw services such as Netflix and Disney+ lose a substantial number of customers. Furthermore, the direct-to-consumer (DTC) businesses of large media companies are struggling to turn a profit. Disney, for example, reported a loss of 2.5 billion U.S. dollars for its streaming services in 2023. Streaming companies take action In order to compensate for subscriber and income losses, streaming companies implemented several strategies, such as launching more profitable ad-supported tiers, cracking down on credential sharing, laying off thousands of employees, and spending less on content. The Walt Disney Company was already able to increase DTC profits recently and predicted to achieve profitability by the end of 2024. Its cost-cutting measures include layoffs and savings in content spending by reducing content produced and removing TV shows and movies from its streaming services.

In the fiscal year 2024, The Walt Disney Company gained 2.72 U.S. dollars per share of common stock, twice the 1.29 dollars recorded a year earlier. Meanwhile, Disney's global revenue increased by about three percent between fiscal years 2023 and 2024.
