\n The Walt Disney Company missed Wall Street\u2019s expectations Wednesday when the company reported weaker-than-expected revenue for the past quarter.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cOur results this quarter reflect the significant progress we\u2019ve made over the past year,\u201d CEO Bob Iger said in a statement. \u201cWhile we still have work to do, these efforts have allowed us to move beyond this period of fixing and begin building our business again.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Disney\u2019s stock is up 2%, bouncing off a nearly 10-year low.\n <\/p>\n

\n The company reported revenue of $21.2 billion, coming in slightly below expectations of $21.3 billion, according to estimates from analysts surveyed by Refinitiv.\n <\/p>\n

\n Disney\u2019s report comes during a rocky period for the company as it grapples with a streaming business burning through cash, cord cutting, a recent string of box office flops, an ongoing actors strike and legal battles with Republican presidential candidate Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.\n <\/p>\n

\n The company said it was \u201caggressively managing its cost base,\u201d planning to slash $2 billion more in costs than previously reported. Disney previously announced 7,000 job cuts in February as part of a $5.5 billion cost saving plan. On Wednesday, the company said its efficiency target had grown to $7.5 billion. While no job cuts were announced, the increased cost cuts may indicate future layoffs.\n <\/p>\n

\n Disney\u2019s theme park division was a bright spot for the company, increasing by over 30% compared to last year. The company pointed to strength in its international theme parks and Disney cruises. However, the company said revenues for Walt Disney World in Central Florida were weaker.\n <\/p>\n

\n The company\u2019s fiscal fourth quarter began in July and ended in October of this year, and included the summer slump seen at Walt Disney World Resort in Central Florida. In July, Disney World parkgoers experienced shorter-than-expected ride wait times and fewer crowds than expected.\n <\/p>\n

\n This is a developing story and will be updated.<\/em>\n <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
