Disney Earnings Call Live Blog: Bob Iger Talks ESPN/NFL Deal, Disney Parks, And More

Refresh

Good morning, the earnings name is getting formally underway with the usual introduction and the cautionary statements.

Dropping the NFL/ESPN deal information on the finish of enterprise yesterday with the earnings name this morning was an fascinating transfer. I ponder if the plan was to carry it till this morning, however one thing leaked, or Disney was afraid it will leak, and needed to pull the set off early. I am assuming Iger’s opening remarks will begin there, and the primary Q&A questions will probably be dedicated to it.

The maintain music for Disney earnings calls is all the time fascinating. We’re getting instrumental Disney music together with “Immortals” from Large Hero 6 and the Winnie the Pooh theme. How’s your morning going?
