Supplementary notes
*In 2023, Disney changed their segments - the figures for the media segment include linear networks, direct-to-consumer, as well as content sales/licensing and other, however, the company made eliminations that year hence the discrepancy compared to previous years; the figures for 2022 were reinstated. The 2021 media and entertainment business is comprised of linear networks, direct-to-consumer, as well as content sales/licensing and other. The pre-2021 media network segment was comprised of a domestic broadcast television network, television production and distribution operations, domestic television stations, international and domestic cable networks, domestic broadcast radio networks and stations, and publishing and digital operations. It includes high profile names as ABC Television Network, ESPN and the Disney Channel. This resulted in a larger revenue from 2020 onwards. Figures have been rounded.
