&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Direct-to-Consumer revenue increased 6%, which included an adverse impact of 3 percentage points due to Disney+ Hotstar being included in the prior-year quarter's results

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Direct-to-Consumer operating income increased $365 million to $346 million

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ 183 million Disney+ and Hulu subscriptions, an increase of 2.6 million versus Q2 fiscal 2025

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ 128 million Disney+ subscribers, an increase of 1.8 million versus Q2 fiscal 2025

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Linear Networks operating income declined $269 million versus Q3 fiscal 2024 largely driven by the Star India transaction

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Content Sales/Licensing and Other declined $275 million versus Q3 fiscal 2024, reflecting the performance of titles in the quarter compared to the strong performance of *Inside Out 2* in the prior-year quarter

• Sports: Segment operating income of $1.0 billion, an increase of $235 million versus Q3 fiscal 2024

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Year-over-year increase reflects the impact of a $314 million loss at Star India in Q3 fiscal 2024

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Domestic ESPN operating income declined 7% versus the prior-year quarter primarily due to higher programming and production costs reflecting contractual rate increases for the NBA and college sports

• Experiences: Segment operating income of $2.5 billion, an increase of $294 million versus Q3 fiscal 2024

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Domestic Parks & Experiences operating income grew 22% to $1.7 billion

<sup>(1)</sup> Total segment operating income and diluted EPS excluding certain items (also referred to as adjusted EPS) are non-GAAP financial measures. The most comparable GAAP measures are income before income taxes and diluted EPS, respectively. See the discussion on pages 17 through 21 for how we define and calculate these measures and a quantitative reconciliation thereof to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Total Disney+ and Hulu subscriptions: Increase of more than 10 million compared to Q3 fiscal 2025, with the majority of the increase coming from Hulu as a result of expanded Charter deal

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Disney+ subscribers: Modest increase in Disney+ subscribers compared to Q3 fiscal 2025

• Fiscal Year 2025:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Adjusted EPS<sup>(1)</sup> of $5.85, an increase of 18% over fiscal 2024

**<u>Message From Our CEO:</u>**

"We are pleased with our creative success and financial performance in Q3 as we continue to execute across our strategic priorities," said Robert A. Iger, Chief Executive Officer, The Walt Disney Company. "The company is taking major steps forward in streaming with the upcoming launch of ESPN's direct-to-consumer service, our just-announced plans with the NFL, and our forthcoming integration of Hulu into Disney+, creating a truly differentiated streaming proposition that harnesses the highest-caliber brands and franchises, general entertainment, family programming, news, and industry-leading sports content. And we have more expansions underway around the world in our parks and experiences than at any other time in our history. With ambitious plans ahead for all our businesses, we're not done building, and we are excited for Disney's future."

<sup>(1)</sup> Diluted EPS excluding certain items (also referred to as adjusted EPS) is a non-GAAP financial measure. The most comparable GAAP measure is diluted EPS. See the discussion on pages 17 through 21 for how we define and calculate this measure and why the Company is not providing the forward-looking quantitative reconciliation of diluted EPS excluding certain items to the most comparable GAAP measure.

**DISCUSSION OF THIRD QUARTER SEGMENT RESULTS**

**<u>Star India</u>**

On November 14, 2024, the Company and Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) completed the formation (the Star India Transaction) of a joint venture (India joint venture) that combines the Company's Star-branded and other general entertainment and sports television channels and direct-to-consumer Disney+ Hotstar service in India (Star India) with certain media and entertainment businesses controlled by RIL. RIL has an effective 56% controlling interest in the joint venture with 37% held by the Company and 7% held by a third party investment company.

Upon completion of the Star India Transaction, the Company began recognizing its 37% share of the India joint venture's results in "Equity in the income of investees." Star India results through November 14, 2024 are consolidated in the Company's financial results.

**<u>Entertainment</u>**

Revenue and operating income for the Entertainment segment were as follows:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Quarter Ended | Quarter Ended | Change | Nine Months Ended | Nine Months Ended | |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | Change | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | Change |
| Revenues: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Linear Networks | $2271 | $2663 | (15) % | $7306 | $8231 | (11) % |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Direct-to-Consumer | 6176 | 5805 | 6% | 18366 | 16993 | 8% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Content Sales/Licensing and Other | 2257 | 2112 | 7% | 6586 | 5133 | 28% |
|  | $10704 | $10580 | 1% | $32258 | $30357 | 6% |
| Operating income (loss): |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Linear Networks | $697 | $966 | (28) % | $2564 | $2954 | (13) % |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Direct-to-Consumer | 346 | (19) | nm | 975 | (110) | nm |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Content Sales/Licensing and Other | (21) | 254 | nm | 444 | 12 | >100% |
|  | $1022 | $1201 | (15) % | $3983 | $2856 | 39% |

---

The decrease in Entertainment operating income in the current quarter compared to the prior-year quarter was due to lower results at Content Sales/Licensing and Other and Linear Networks, partially offset by an improvement at Direct-to-Consumer.

------

*Linear Networks*

Linear Networks revenues and operating income were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Quarter Ended | Quarter Ended | Change |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | Change |
| Revenue |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Domestic  | $2052 | $2145 | (4) % |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;International | 219 | 518 | (58) % |
|  | $2271 | $2663 | (15) % |
| Operating income |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Domestic  | $587 | $682 | (14) % |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;International  | 12 | 157 | (92) % |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Equity in the income of investees | 98 | 127 | (23) % |
|  | $697 | $966 | (28) % |

---

<u>Domestic</u>

Domestic operating income in the current quarter decreased compared to the prior-year quarter due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A decline in advertising revenue due to a decrease in average viewership and lower rates

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Lower affiliate revenue attributable to fewer subscribers, partially offset by higher effective rates

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Programming and production costs were comparable to the prior-year quarter as higher fees paid to the Sports segment to program sports on ABC were offset by lower costs for non-sports programming

<u>International</u>

The decrease in international operating income was due to the Star India Transaction.

<u>Equity in the Income of Investees</u>

Income from equity investees decreased due to lower income from A+E Television Networks (A+E) attributable to decreases in affiliate and advertising revenue, partially offset by lower marketing costs.

*Direct-to-Consumer*

Direct-to-Consumer revenues and operating income (loss) were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Quarter Ended | Quarter Ended | Change |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | Change |
| Revenue | $6176 | $5805 | 6% |
| Operating income (loss) | $346 | $(19) | nm |

---

The improvement in operating results in the current quarter compared to the prior-year quarter was due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Subscription revenue growth attributable to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Higher effective rates, reflecting increases in pricing

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ An increase in subscribers

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ The absence of Star India subscription revenue in the current quarter due to the Star India Transaction

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ An unfavorable foreign exchange impact

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A decrease in programming and production costs reflecting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ The comparison to International Cricket Council (ICC) programming, which was carried on Disney+ Hotstar in the prior-year quarter

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ An increase in hours of content available on the services

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Higher subscriber-based license fees attributable to more subscribers to bundles with third-party offerings

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Lower marketing costs

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Higher technology and distribution costs

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A decrease in advertising revenue due to lower rates and the comparison to ICC programming in the prior-year quarter, partially offset by more impressions

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<sup>(2)</sup>Total may not equal the sum of the column due to rounding

Domestic Disney+ average monthly revenue per paid subscriber increased from $8.06 to $8.09 as higher advertising revenue was largely offset by the impact of subscriber mix shifts.

International Disney+ average monthly revenue per paid subscriber increased from $7.52 to $7.67 due to a favorable foreign exchange impact and increases in pricing, partially offset by the impact of subscriber mix shifts.

------

Hulu SVOD Only average monthly revenue per paid subscriber increased from $12.36 to $12.40 as higher advertising revenue was largely offset by the impact of subscriber mix shifts.

Hulu Live TV + SVOD average monthly revenue per paid subscriber increased from $99.94 to $100.27 due to higher advertising revenue.

*Content Sales/Licensing and Other*

Content Sales/Licensing and Other revenues and operating income (loss) were as follows:

| Revenue | $2257 | $2112 | 7% |
| Operating income (loss) | $(21) | $254 | nm |

---

The decrease in operating results was due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Lower theatrical distribution results. The current quarter reflected the release of *Elio, Thunderbolts\** and *Lilo & Stitch*, while the prior-year quarter included the release of *Inside Out 2*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Higher film cost impairments in the current quarter

<u>Domestic ESPN</u>

The decrease in domestic ESPN operating results in the current quarter compared to the prior-year quarter reflected:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An increase in programming and production costs primarily due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Higher NBA and college sports rights costs reflecting contractual rate increases

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ The absence of NHL Stanley Cup Finals rights costs in the current quarter. We have the rights to air the Stanley Cup Finals every other year.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An increase in revenue attributable to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Higher fees received from the Entertainment segment to program sports content on ABC

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Advertising revenue growth due to increases in rates, partially offset by lower average viewership

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ A decrease in affiliate revenue reflecting fewer subscribers, largely offset by higher effective rates

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Lower Ultimate Fighting Championship pay-per-view fees due to lower average buys per event

<u>Star India</u>

The operating loss in Star India in the prior-year quarter reflected Indian Premier League and ICC cricket programming.

<u>Key Metrics<sup>(1)</sup> - Third Quarter of Fiscal 2025 Comparison to Second Quarter of Fiscal 2025</u>

The following table is on a sequential quarter basis.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | June 28,<br>2025 | March 29,<br>2025 | Change |
| Paid subscribers at: (in millions) | 24.1 | 24.1 | — % |
| Average Monthly Revenue Per Paid Subscriber for the quarter ended: | $6.40 | $6.58 | (3) % |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<sup>(1)</sup>See discussion on page 16—DTC Product Descriptions and Key Definitions

ESPN+ average monthly revenue per paid subscriber decreased from $6.58 to 6.40 due to lower advertising revenue.

**<u>Experiences</u>**

Experiences revenues and operating income were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Quarter Ended | Quarter Ended | Change |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | Change |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Consumer Products | 444 | 440 | 1% |
|  | $2516 | $2222 | 13% |

---

<u>Domestic Parks and Experiences</u>

Operating results at our domestic parks and experiences increased compared to the prior-year quarter due to growth at our domestic parks and resorts and, to a lesser extent, Disney Cruise Line reflecting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An increase in guest spending due to higher spending at our theme parks

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Higher volumes attributable to increases in passenger cruise days and occupied room nights. Additional passenger cruise days reflected the launch of the *Disney Treasure* in the first quarter of the current year

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Increased costs primarily due to new guest offerings, including the fleet expansion at Disney Cruise Line

**OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION**

**<u>Corporate and Unallocated Shared Expenses</u>**

Corporate and unallocated shared expenses increased $82 million for the quarter, from $328 million to $410 million, primarily due to a legal settlement, timing of allocations to the segments and higher compensation costs, partially offset by a gain on a land sale.

**<u>Restructuring and Impairment Charges</u>**

In the current quarter, the Company recorded charges of $185 million primarily for an impairment of an equity investment.

**<u>Other Expense</u>**

In the prior-year quarter, the Company recorded a charge of $65 million related to a legal ruling.

**<u>Interest Expense, net</u>**

Interest expense, net was as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Quarter Ended | Quarter Ended | |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | Change |
| Interest expense | $(438) | $(509) | 14% |
| Interest income, investment income and other | 114 | 167 | (32) % |
| Interest expense, net | $(324) | $(342) | 5% |

---

The decrease in interest expense was due to lower average debt balances and rates, partially offset by a decrease in capitalized interest.

The decrease in interest income, investment income and other was due to an unfavorable comparison related to pension and postretirement benefit costs, other than service cost.

------

**<u>Equity in the Income of Investees</u>**

Equity in the income of investees was as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Quarter Ended | Quarter Ended | |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | Change |
| Amounts included in segment results: |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Entertainment | $102 | $123 | (17) % |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sports | 26 | 26 | — % |
| Equity in the loss of India joint venture | (50) |  | nm |
| Amortization of TFCF Corporation (TFCF) intangible assets related to an equity investee | (3) | (3) | — % |
| Equity in the income of investees | $75 | $146 | (49) % |

---

Income from equity investees decreased $71 million, to $75 million from $146 million, primarily due to a loss from the India joint venture in the current quarter.

**<u>Income Taxes</u>**

The effective income tax rate was as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | Quarter Ended | Quarter Ended |
| | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 |
| Income before income taxes | $3211 | $3093 |
| Income tax (benefit) expense | (2732) | 251 |
| Effective income tax rate | (85.1)% | 8.1% |

---

The effective income tax rate was negative 85.1% in the current quarter compared to a positive effective income tax rate of 8.1% in the prior-year quarter. The current quarter included a $3.3 billion non-cash tax benefit recognized upon the change in Hulu's U.S. income tax classification. Aside from the $3.3 billion tax benefit, both the current and prior-year quarters reflected benefits from favorable adjustments related to prior year tax matters.

**<u>Noncontrolling Interests</u>**

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Quarter Ended | Quarter Ended | |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | Change |
| Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests | $(681) | $(221) | >(100) % |

---

The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was due to an incremental payment to acquire Hulu.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is determined on income after royalties and management fees, financing costs and income taxes, as applicable.

------

**<u>Cash from Operations</u>**

Cash provided by operations and free cash flow were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Nine Months Ended | Nine Months Ended | |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | Change |
| Cash provided by operations | $13627 | $8453 | $5174 |
| Investments in parks, resorts and other property | (6108) | (3923) | (2185) |
| Free cash flow<sup>(1)</sup> | $7519 | $4530 | $2989 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<sup>(1)</sup>Free cash flow is not a financial measure defined by GAAP. The most comparable GAAP measure is cash provided by operations. See the discussion on pages 17 through 21.

Cash provided by operations increased $5.2 billion to $13.6 billion in the current period from $8.5 billion in the prior-year period driven by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Lower tax payments in the current period compared to the prior-year period reflecting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Deferral of fiscal 2025 U.S. federal and California state income tax payments until October 2025 pursuant to relief related to the 2025 wildfires in California

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Payment in fiscal 2024 of U.S. federal and California state income taxes related to fiscal 2023 that had been deferred pursuant to relief related to 2023 winter storms in California

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Higher operating income and, to a lesser extent, lower spending on content at Entertainment

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Higher operating income at Experiences

**<u>Capital Expenditures</u>**

Investments in parks, resorts and other property were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | Nine Months Ended | Nine Months Ended |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 |
| Entertainment | $(835) | $(750) |

| Corporate | (340) | (512) |
| Total investments in parks, resorts and other property | $(6108) | $(3923) |

---

Capital expenditures increased to $6.1 billion from $3.9 billion due to higher spend on cruise ship fleet expansion at the Experiences segment, partially offset by lower spend on corporate facilities.

------

**<u>Depreciation Expense</u>**

Depreciation expense was as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | Nine Months Ended | Nine Months Ended |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 |

**<u>DTC PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS AND KEY DEFINITIONS</u>**

<u>Product offerings</u>

In the U.S., Disney+, ESPN+ and Hulu SVOD Only are each offered as a standalone service or as part of various multi-product offerings. Hulu Live TV + SVOD includes Disney+ and ESPN+. Disney+ is available in more than 150 countries and territories outside the U.S. Depending on the market, our services can be purchased on our websites or through third-party platforms/apps or are available via wholesale arrangements.

<u>Paid subscribers</u>

Paid subscribers reflect subscribers for which we recognized subscription revenue. Certain product offerings provide the option for an extra member to be added to an account (extra member add-on). These extra members are not counted as paid subscribers. Subscribers cease to be a paid subscriber as of their effective cancellation date or as a result of a failed payment method. Subscribers to multi-product offerings in the U.S. are counted as a paid subscriber for each of the Company's services included in the multi-product offering, and subscribers to Hulu Live TV + SVOD are counted as one paid subscriber for each of the Hulu Live TV + SVOD, Disney+ and ESPN+ services. Subscribers include those who receive an entitlement to a service through wholesale arrangements, including those for which the service is available to each subscriber of an existing content distribution tier. When we aggregate the total number of paid subscribers across our DTC streaming services, we refer to them as paid subscriptions.

<u>International Disney+</u>

International Disney+ includes the Disney+ service outside the U.S. and Canada.

<u>Average Monthly Revenue Per Paid Subscriber</u>

Hulu and ESPN+ average monthly revenue per paid subscriber is calculated based on the average of the monthly average paid subscribers for each month in the period. The monthly average paid subscribers is calculated as the sum of the beginning of the month and end of the month paid subscriber count, divided by two. Disney+ average monthly revenue per paid subscriber is calculated using a daily average of paid subscribers for the period. Revenue includes subscription fees, advertising (excluding revenue earned from selling advertising spots to other Company businesses), premium and feature add-on revenue and extra member add-on revenue but excludes Pay-Per-View revenue. Advertising revenue generated by content on one DTC streaming service that is accessed through another DTC streaming service by subscribers to both streaming services is allocated between both streaming services. The average revenue per paid subscriber is net of discounts on offerings that carry more than one service. Revenue is allocated to each service based on the relative retail or wholesale price of each service on a standalone basis. Hulu Live TV + SVOD revenue is allocated to the SVOD services based on the wholesale price of the Hulu SVOD Only, Disney+ and ESPN+ multi-product offering. In general, wholesale arrangements have a lower average monthly revenue per paid subscriber than subscribers that we acquire directly or through third-party platforms.

**<u>NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES</u>**

This earnings release presents diluted EPS excluding certain items (also referred to as adjusted EPS), total segment operating income and free cash flow. Diluted EPS excluding certain items, total segment operating income and free cash flow are important financial measures for the Company but are not financial measures defined by GAAP.

These measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the most comparable GAAP financial measures and are not presented as alternative measures of diluted EPS, income before income taxes or cash provided by operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Diluted EPS excluding certain items, total segment operating income and free cash flow as we have calculated them may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Our definitions and calculations of diluted EPS excluding certain items, total segment operating income and free cash flow, as well as quantitative reconciliations of each of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, are provided below.

The Company is not providing the forward-looking measure for diluted EPS, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to diluted EPS excluding certain items, or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking diluted EPS excluding certain items to that most directly comparable GAAP measure. The Company is unable to predict or estimate with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items required for such GAAP measure without unreasonable effort. Information about other adjusting items that is currently not available to the Company could have a potentially unpredictable and significant impact on future GAAP financial results.

<u>Diluted EPS excluding certain items</u>

The Company uses diluted EPS excluding (1) certain items affecting comparability of results from period to period and (2) amortization of TFCF and Hulu intangible assets, including purchase accounting step-up adjustments for released content, to facilitate the evaluation of the performance of the Company's operations exclusive of these items, and these adjustments reflect how senior management is evaluating segment performance.

The Company believes that providing diluted EPS exclusive of certain items impacting comparability is useful to investors, particularly where the impact of the excluded items is significant in relation to reported earnings and because the measure allows for comparability between periods of the operating performance of the Company's business and allows investors to evaluate the impact of these items separately.

The Company further believes that providing diluted EPS exclusive of amortization of TFCF and Hulu intangible assets associated with the acquisition in 2019 is useful to investors because the TFCF and Hulu acquisition was considerably larger than the Company's historic acquisitions with a significantly greater acquisition accounting impact.

<u>Total segment operating income</u>

The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on segment operating income, and management uses total segment operating income (the sum of segment operating income from all of the Company's segments) as a measure of the performance of operating businesses separate from non-operating factors. The Company believes that information about total segment operating income assists investors by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of the Company's portfolio of businesses separate from non-operational factors that affect net income, thus providing separate insight into both operations and other factors that affect reported results.

The following table reconciles income before income taxes to total segment operating income:

<u>Free cash flow</u>

The Company uses free cash flow (cash provided by operations less investments in parks, resorts and other property), among other measures, to evaluate the ability of its operations to generate cash that is available for purposes other than capital expenditures. Management believes that information about free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available to service debt obligations, make strategic acquisitions and investments and pay dividends or repurchase shares.

The following table presents a summary of the Company's consolidated cash flows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Quarter Ended | Quarter Ended | Nine Months Ended | Nine Months Ended |
| ($ in millions) | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 | June 28,<br>2025 | June 29,<br>2024 |
