Disney (Minutes): Committed to double-digit percentage growth in earnings next year

Financial Analysis

Hello everyone, I am Dolphin Research! $Disney(DIS.US) released its fiscal year 2025 fourth quarter (CY25Q3) earnings before the U.S. stock market opened on November 12th, Eastern Time.

Although the company's profitability was slightly better and it maintained its relatively positive guidance for 2026 without adjustments, the market seems to lack confidence. Specifically: 1.

1113 ｜Dolphin Research Key Focus: 🐬 Macro/Industry 1. Trump signed a temporary federal government funding bill passed by both houses of Congress at the White House, ending the longest federal government shutdown in history that lasted 43 days. In the short term, it can restart federal services, issue back pay to employees, alleviate the impact on people's livelihood such as aviation delays and welfare interruptions, and resume the release of economic data to stabilize market expectations. However, the bill is only a temporary solution and does not address core differences such as healthcare subsidies and the remaining 9 annual appropriations, so there is still a risk of a shutdown after January 30...

Originally, in the mid-September Madrid negotiations, the U.S.-China talks resolved the long-standing major conflict over TikTok. However, Trump's emotional essay on a 100% tariff seemed to have set back the bilateral relations overnight. But following Trump's press inquiries, Vance's statements, and press conferences from China's Ministry of Commerce, the TACO transaction became almost a consensus expectation. In this article, Dolphin Research will elaborate more on how this TACO transaction differs from previous ones and what other insights can be drawn besides TACO. 1. This TACO...
