The Commercial Real Estate Alpha Site

I was reading some financial reporting on Disney and their current YoutubeTV feud and I found this below tidbit interesting.

“Disney’s domestic parks profit grew 9% to $920 million in the quarter. That loyalty has allowed it to squeeze a lot more money out of its customers: Disney+ now costs 172% more than it did six years ago. 

Heck, retail sales related to the character Stitch alone were worth $4 billion this year, up from $2.6 billion in fiscal 2024. To put that $4 billion sales figure in context, Harley Davidson sold about the same amount in motorcycles, parts and accessories, and apparel combined last year.”

That is a good amount of juice disney squeezes out of the consumer.
