Disney reports streaming profit but theme parks under strain

Disney reported Wednesday better revenues than anticipated in the most recent quarter, atop a first profit in its streaming business, but its theme parks are coming under pressure.

The company saw revenues of $23.2 billion, beating projections of $23.1 billion according to analysts polled by FactSet, while overall profits reached $2.6 billion.

"This was a strong quarter for Disney, driven by excellent results in our Entertainment segment both at the box office and in DTC (direct-to-consumer)," said Disney chief executive officer Bob Iger in a statement.

He added that this came "as we achieved profitability across our combined streaming businesses for the first time and a quarter ahead of our previous guidance."
