Disney is adjusting its business strategy under returning CEO Bob Iger, and it's working.
The move by Nelson Peltz came a day after the company’s C.E.O., Bob Iger, announced a restructuring that will cut $5.5 billion in costs and eliminate roughly 7,000 jobs.
Disney+ shed 2.4 million subscribers in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, while overall revenues at The Walt Disney Company rose by 8 percent to $23.5 billion.
In the company’s first earnings report since Bob Iger returned as C.E.O., it exceeded Wall Street’s expectations. But about 7,000 employees are expected to be laid off.
The company reports quarterly earnings on Wednesday, and Wall Street is expecting it to lay out a new streaming strategy and operating structure.
