Revenue in the fiscal fourth quarter totaled $22.57 billion, topping the $22.45 billion expected by analysts, according to estimates compiled by LSEG. And the good run should continue, with management forecasting earnings growth acceleration over the next couple of years. Roughly $15 billion in cash flow from operations vs. $14.8 billion expected, and about $8 billion in capital expenditures vs. $6.54 billion expected. That implies free cash flow of about $7 billion vs. $8.1 billion expected.

☆ Disney earnings offer hope that streaming can successfully supplant linear TV
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-14 | by ( Alex Sherman | In Alex-Sherman | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

For Disney's fiscal 2025, streaming will generate enough operating income to offset the parallel decline in operating income from linear TV, Johnston said in an interview. Disney projects entertainment direct-to-consumer operating income will increase by about $875 million next year over fiscal year 2024. That would put the division at over $1 billion in operating income for the coming fiscal year. Disney's combined streaming businesses improved their profitability in the company's fiscal fourth quarter, posting operating income of $321 million. For the year, Disney's entertainment streaming platforms (Disney+ and Hulu) made $143 million in operating income.

Magnetospheres are the protective bubbles around planets like Earth that have magnetic cores and magnetic fields, and they are driven by the planet’s magnetic field. Voyager 2’s data showed that Uranus’ magnetosphere was home to unexpectedly powerful electron radiation belts. Voyager 2’s observations of Uranus’ magnetosphere defied the way astronomers understand how magnetic fields trap energetic particles and their radiation. The first panel (left) of this artist's concept depicts how Uranus' protective magnetosphere behaved prior to Voyager 2's flyby. Fortunately, sending a dedicated mission to study Uranus in the future has become a priority for NASA, according to a report released in 2022.
