Disney reported a profitable Q3 on Tuesday even as it continues to feel the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on sectors like its parks business.
Revenue for the Parks, Experiences and Products segment, which includes cruises, resorts and merchandise, fell 85% to below $1 billion during the quarter.
Disney has been unable to release a new film in theaters since mid-March, which has taken a toll on its studio business. During the quarter, studio entertainment revenues slumped 55% to $1.7 billion. The lack of theatrical releases was partially offset by video on-demand, lower marketing costs and lower film costs.
Disney faced particularly tough comparisons this quarter, as the company released box office blockbusters "Avengers: Endgame" and "Aladdin" during the same period last year. "Avengers: Endgame" was the highest grossing film of all time.
