THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited; tabular dollars in millions, except for per share data)
1.Principles of Consolidation
These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. We believe that we have included all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. Operating results for the quarter ended January 2, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending October 2, 2021.
The terms “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” are used in this report to refer collectively to the parent company and the subsidiaries through which our various businesses are actually conducted. The term “TWDC” is used to refer to the parent company.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Fox sports media business in Mexico, along with another Fox business divested in fiscal 2020, are presented as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. At January 2, 2021 and October 3, 2020, the assets and liabilities of the sports media operation in Mexico are not material and are included in other assets and other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company enters into relationships with or makes investments in other entities that may be variable interest entities (VIE). A VIE is consolidated in the financial statements if the Company has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant (as defined by ASC 810-10-25-38) to the VIE. Hong Kong Disneyland Resort and Shanghai Disney Resort (together the Asia Theme Parks) are VIEs in which the Company has less than 50% equity ownership. Company subsidiaries (the Management Companies) have management agreements with the Asia Theme Parks, which provide the Management Companies, subject to certain protective rights of joint venture partners, with the ability to direct the day-to-day operating activities and the development of business strategies that we believe most significantly impact the economic performance of the Asia Theme Parks. In addition, the Management Companies receive management fees under these arrangements that we believe could be significant to the Asia Theme Parks. Therefore, the Company has consolidated the Asia Theme Parks in its financial statements.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
The Company consolidates the results of certain subsidiaries that are less than 100% owned and for which the noncontrolling interest shareholders have the rights to require the Company to purchase their interests in these subsidiaries. The most significant of these are Hulu LLC (Hulu) and BAMTech LLC (BAMTech).
Hulu provides direct-to-consumer (DTC) streaming services and is owned 67% by the Company and 33% by NBC Universal (NBCU). In May 2019, the Company entered into a put/call agreement with NBCU that provided the Company with full operational control of Hulu. Under the agreement, beginning in January 2024, NBCU has the option to require the Company to purchase NBCU’s interest in Hulu and the Company has the option to require NBCU to sell its interest in Hulu to the Company, based on NBCU’s equity ownership percentage of the greater of Hulu’s then fair value or $27.5 billion.
NBCU’s interest will generally not be allocated its portion of Hulu’s losses as the redeemable noncontrolling interest is required to be carried at a minimum value. The minimum value is equal to the fair value as of the May 2019 agreement date accreted to the January 2024 estimated redemption value. At January 2, 2021, NBCU’s interest in Hulu is recorded in the Company’s financial statements at $8.2 billion.
BAMTech provides streaming technology services to third parties and is owned 75% by the Company, 15% by Major League Baseball (MLB) and 10% by the National Hockey League (NHL), both of which have the right to sell their interests to the Company in the future.
MLB has the right to sell its interest to the Company and the Company has the right to buy MLB’s interest starting five years from and ending ten years after the Company’s September 25, 2017 acquisition date of BAMTech at the greater of fair value or a guaranteed floor value ($563 million accreting at 8% annually for eight years from the date of acquisition). The NHL
THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited; tabular dollars in millions, except for per share data)
can sell its interest to the Company in 2021 for $350 million. The Company has the right to acquire the NHL interest in 2021 for $500 million.
The MLB and NHL interests are required to be recorded at a minimum value equal to the greater of (i) their acquisition date fair value adjusted for their share (if any) of earnings, losses, or dividends (“adjusted value”) or (ii) an accreted value from the date of the acquisition to the applicable redemption date (“accreted value”). As the accreted value is generally always higher than the adjusted value, the MLB and NHL interests are not allocated their portion of BAMTech losses. Therefore, the MLB and NHL interests are accreted to the estimated redemption value as of the earliest redemption date. As of January 2, 2021, the guaranteed floor value for the MLB interest, accreted from the date of acquisition, was $724 million. As of January 2, 2021, the accreted value of the NHL interest was $325 million.
Adjustments to the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests increase or decrease income available to Company shareholders and are recorded in “Net income from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in the fiscal 2020 financial statements and notes to conform to the fiscal 2021 presentation.
2.Description of Business and Segment Information
Our operating segments report separate financial information, which is evaluated regularly by the Chief Executive Officer in order to decide how to allocate resources and to assess performance.
Effective at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we changed the presentation of segment operating results as discussed below and have recast our fiscal 2020 segment operating results to align with the fiscal 2021 presentation.
Media and Entertainment Reorganization
In October 2020, the Company reorganized its media and entertainment operations, which have been previously reported in three segments: Media Networks, Studio Entertainment and Direct-to-Consumer & International. Under this reorganization, a single group is responsible for distributing all of the Company’s media and entertainment content across all platforms globally. This distribution organization will have full accountability for the financial results of the media and entertainment businesses, and content will be created by three production groups: Studios, General Entertainment and Sports.
As a result of the reorganization, effective at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the financial results of the media and entertainment businesses will be reported as one segment, Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution (DMED). We will report operating results for the DMED segment across three significant lines of business/distribution platforms: Direct-to-Consumer (DTC), Linear Networks and Content Sales/Licensing (primarily comprising theatrical, home entertainment and third-party television and subscription video-on-demand “TV/SVOD” distribution globally).
Intersegment Transfer Pricing
Under our previous segment structure, in certain instances production and distribution activities were in different segments. In these situations, for segment financial accounting purposes, the producer segment would recognize revenue based on an intersegment transfer price that included a “mark-up”. These transactions were reported “gross” (i.e. the segment producing the content reported revenue and the mark-up from intersegment transactions, and the required eliminations were reported on a separate “Eliminations” line when presenting a summary of our segment results). Under our new segment structure, the operating results of the production and distribution activities are reported in the same segment, and the fully loaded production cost will be allocated across the distribution platforms which are utilizing the content.
Elimination of Consumer Products Revenue Share
Under our legacy segment financial reporting, the Studio Entertainment segment received a revenue share related to the consumer products business, which is included in the Disney Parks, Experiences and Products (DPEP) segment. Under the new reporting structure, DMED will not receive a revenue share from DPEP related to the consumer products business.

television costs) recognized in connection with the TFCF acquisition in fiscal 2019 (TFCF and Hulu acquisition amortization). Corporate and unallocated shared expenses principally consist of corporate functions, executive management and certain unallocated administrative support functions.
Segment operating results include allocations of certain costs, including information technology, pension, legal and other shared services costs, which are allocated based on metrics designed to correlate with consumption.
Impact of COVID-19
Since early 2020, the world has been, and continues to be, impacted by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. COVID-19 and measures to prevent its spread are impacting our segments in a number of ways, most significantly at DPEP where our theme parks have been closed or operating at significantly reduced capacity and cruise ship sailings and guided tours have been suspended. We have delayed, or in some cases, shortened or canceled, theatrical releases, and stage play performances have been suspended. Since March 2020, we have experienced significant disruptions in the production and availability of content, including the shift of key live sports programming from the third quarter of fiscal 2020 to the fourth quarter and into fiscal 2021 as well as the suspension of most film and television content late in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Although most film and television production activities have resumed beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we continue to see disruption in production activities depending on local circumstances.
The impact of these disruptions and the extent of their adverse impact on our financial and operating results will be dictated by the length of time that such disruptions continue, which will, in turn, depend on the currently unknowable duration and severity of the impacts of COVID-19, and among other things, the impact of governmental actions imposed in response to COVID-19 and individuals’ and companies’ risk tolerance regarding health matters going forward. As some of our businesses have reopened, we have incurred additional costs to address government regulations and the safety of our employees, talent and guests.

Revenues recognized in the current and prior-year quarter from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous reporting periods primarily relate to revenues earned on TV/SVOD and theatrical distribution licensee sales on titles made available to the licensee in previous reporting periods. For the quarter ended January 2, 2021, $0.4 billion was recognized related to performance obligations satisfied as of October 3, 2020. For the quarter ended December 28, 2019, $0.5 billion was recognized related to performance obligations satisfied as of September 28, 2019.
As of January 2, 2021, revenue for unsatisfied performance obligations expected to be recognized in the future is $16 billion, which primarily relates to content to be delivered in the future under existing agreements with television station affiliates and TV/SVOD licensees. Of this amount, we expect to recognize approximately $5 billion in the remainder of fiscal 2021, $5 billion in fiscal 2022, $3 billion in fiscal 2023 and $3 billion thereafter. These amounts include only fixed consideration or minimum guarantees and do not include amounts related to (i) contracts with an original expected term of one year or less (such as most advertising contracts) or (ii) licenses of IP that are solely based on the sales of the licensee.
When the timing of the Company’s revenue recognition is different from the timing of customer payments, the Company recognizes either a contract asset (customer payment is subsequent to revenue recognition and subject to the Company satisfying additional performance obligations) or deferred revenue (customer payment precedes the Company satisfying the performance obligations). Consideration due under contracts with payment in arrears is recognized as accounts receivable. Deferred revenues are recognized as (or when) the Company performs under the contract. Contract assets, accounts receivable and deferred revenues from contracts with customers are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| January 2, 2021 | | October 3, 2020 |
Contract assets | $ | 44 | | | $ | 70 | |
| | | |

Accounts receivable | | | |

Non-current | 1,705 | | | 1,789 | |
Allowance for credit losses | (319) | | | (460) | |
Deferred revenues | | | |
Current | 3,853 | | | 3,688 | |
Non-current | 559 | | | 513 | |
Contract assets primarily relate to certain multi-season TV/SVOD licensing contracts. Activity for the current and prior-year quarters related to contract assets was not material. The allowance for credit losses decreased from $460 million at October 3, 2020 to $319 million at January 2, 2021 due to the adoption of new accounting guidance on the measurement of credit losses (see Note 16).
For the quarter ended January 2, 2021, the Company recognized revenues of $1.5 billion, primarily related to licensing and publishing advances and content sales included in the deferred revenue balance at October 3, 2020. For the quarter ended December 28, 2019, the Company recognized revenues of $2.1 billion primarily related to theme park admissions, vacation packages and licensing advances included in the deferred revenue balance at September 28, 2019.
We evaluate our allowance for credit losses and estimate collectability of current and non-current accounts receivable based on historical bad debt experience, our assessment of the financial condition of individual companies with which we do business, current market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. In times of economic turmoil, including COVID-19, our estimates and judgments with respect to the collectability of our receivables are subject to greater uncertainty than in more stable periods.

At January 2, 2021, the Company’s bank facilities, which are with a syndicate of lenders, were as follows:

| Committed Capacity | | Capacity Used | | Unused Capacity |
Facility expiring March 2021 | $ | 5,250 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 5,250 | |

Company’s debt, or a fixed spread in the case of the facility expiring in April 2021, subject to a cap and floor that vary with the Company’s debt rating assigned by Moody’s Investors Service and Standard and Poor’s. The spread above LIBOR can range from 0.18% to 1.80%. The bank facilities specifically exclude certain entities, including the Asia Theme Parks, from any representations, covenants or events of default. The bank facilities contain only one financial covenant, which is interest coverage of three times earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, including both intangible amortization and amortization of our film and television production and programming costs. On January 2, 2021 the financial covenant was met by a significant margin. The Company also has the ability to issue up to $500 million of letters of credit under the facility expiring in March 2023, which if utilized, reduces available borrowings under this facility. As of January 2, 2021, the Company has $1.2 billion of outstanding letters of credit, of which none were issued under this facility.
Cruise Ship Credit Facilities
The Company has credit facilities to finance up to 80% of the contract price of three new cruise ships, which are scheduled to be delivered in 2022, 2024 and 2025. Under the facilities, $1.0 billion in financing is available beginning in October 2021, $1.1 billion is available beginning in August 2023 and $1.1 billion is available beginning in August 2024. Each tranche of financing may be utilized for a period of 18 months from the initial availability date. If utilized, the interest rates will be fixed at 3.48%, 3.80% and 3.74%, respectively, and the loan and interest will be payable semi-annually over a 12-year period from the borrowing date. Early repayment is permitted subject to cancellation fees.
