Answer
Based on the information contained in the Business Wire release titled “The Walt Disney Company Reports Third Quarter and Nine‑Months Earnings for Fiscal 2025,” Disney only disclosed the results for the quarter that ended June 28, 2025 (Q3) and the nine‑month period ending that date. The release includes:
Metric (Q3 2025) | Q3 2024 | % Change |
---|---|---|
Revenue | $23.7 billion | ↑ 2 % |
Income before income taxes | $3.2 billion | ↑ 4 % |
Total segment operating income¹ | $4.6 billion | ↑ 8 % |
Diluted earnings per share (EPS) | (not numerically specified) | — |
What the release does **not contain**
- No forward‑looking guidance on either revenue or earnings (including EPS, operating income, or net income) for the remaining quarters of fiscal 2025 (Q4 2025, Q1 2026, etc.) or for the full‑year fiscal 2025.
- No revenue growth targets, margin expectations, or profit‑per‑share outlook for the next quarter or the rest of the fiscal year.
- No management commentary or press‑release footnotes that would typically present a “guidance” section (e.g., “We expect FY 2025 revenue to be in the range of $X‑$Y billion” or “We project FY 2025 EPS of $Z”).
Implications
- The release is strictly a historical earnings announcement. It tells investors what Disney actually achieved in Q3 2025, but it does not provide any forecast or guidance that investors could use to set expectations for future performance.
- If you are looking for Disney’s forward‑looking guidance, you would need to consult a subsequent earnings release, a quarterly earnings call transcript, a SEC filing (e.g., Form 10‑K or 10‑Q), or a press release that explicitly includes a “Guidance” section. None of those elements are present in the excerpt you provided.
Conclusion
No, the news release does not contain any guidance on revenue or earnings for the upcoming quarters or for the remainder of fiscal 2025. The only data supplied are the actual results for Q3 2025 and the nine‑month period ending June 28 2025. For guidance, you would need to look for a separate communication from Disney that includes forward‑looking statements.
