Better Buy: Walt Disney vs. Comcast Stock

KEY POINTS
Despite Disney's smaller size, its theme park-related segment drove most of the company's growth.
Comcast remains primarily a service provider.

Which media and theme park stock will serve investors better?
Walt Disney (DIS 0.80%) and Comcast (CMCSA 0.92%) began as vastly different companies. But when Comcast bought NBCUniversal in 2011 from General Electric, it became heavily involved in both content development and theme parks.
While many differences remain, Comcast's acquisition made them direct competitors in many respects. That factor alone might lead investors to wonder which communication stock is better, warranting a closer look at each company.
The case for Disney
Content and theme parks have become Disney's bread and butter, so much so that it recently consolidated its company into two segments.
Content falls under its Disney media and entertainment distribution segment. This includes streaming services and Disney's content-related groups such as studios, entertainment, and ESPN. In its fiscal second quarter (ended April 1), it accounted for over 64% of the company's revenue.
As the name implies, Disney's parks, experiences, and products segment includes theme parks, as well as resorts, cruise ships, and consumer products. Although this segment made up less than 36% of revenue in fiscal Q2, it accounted for most of Disney's revenue growth, increasing at a 17% rate year over year versus 6% for media and entertainment.
Overall, revenue of $22 billion in fiscal Q2 rose 13% year over year. Also, with costs and expenses growing at 11%, that helped net income grow by 170% to nearly $1.3 billion. However, Disney was still recovering from the pandemic last year, leaving it with a lower net income base, which increased Disney's profit growth percentage.

Despite the higher profits, the stock has struggled amid a bear market last year. Also, the recovery in profitability helped to leave it with an elevated P/E ratio, selling at about 40 times earnings.
Still, that valuation should fall as Disney's recovery continues. As the company moves on from the legacy of the pandemic, Disney's financials should show further improvement.
How Comcast fares in the current market
As a provider of cable TV and later internet and telecom services, Comcast seemed more complementary than competitive to Disney. With its takeover of NBCUniversal in 2011, it acquired an extensive content library and theme parks, making it more of a direct alternative to Disney.
But despite that move, Comcast remains largely a service provider. Its residential connectivity segment and its platforms and business services connectivity segment comprised about 68% of its revenue in the first quarter of 2023. Also, given the 2% decline in revenue over the previous year, these segments have done little to boost Comcast's stock.
Content and experiences made up the remaining 32% of the company's revenue. Unfortunately, that experienced a more severe revenue drop as revenue fell 9.5%. The bright spot was its $1.9 billion in theme park revenue, which increased 25% yearly.
Unfortunately for Comcast, that makes up a small part of Comcast's $30 billion in revenue, which fell 4% year over year. Still, the company controlled its cost and expense growth and earned an additional $607 million from investments and other income. That led to $3.8 billion in quarterly profits, 8% more than last year.

Amid those earnings, the stock has gained back most of last year's losses, though it is still down modestly over the last 12 months. Also, its P/E ratio has risen in recent months. Now, at a 30 earnings multiple, its valuation is near multiyear highs, though it remains significantly cheaper than Disney.
Disney or Comcast?
Given current conditions, Disney appears more likely to drive higher returns. Both companies have earned their highest growth from their theme park segments and continue to experience struggles on the content side.
However, theme parks account for a much higher portion of Disney's revenue. Moreover, Comcast's primary focus is on telecom services, and that business is mainly responsible for Comcast's revenue decline. Disney is not in that business, which confirms that Disney operates a company better positioned to drive higher returns.
Wow! That is quite a lofty status you have conferred on Disney. And, to what lawsuits are you referring? I do not find any recent lawsuits filed against Disney. Just the living wage lawsuit filed by some employees several years ago and the suit filed 3 years ago by annual passholders who did not have access to Disney parks during COVID.
Is Disney Stock a Buy After Earnings? Yes
With losses in its direct-to-consumer segment but Hulu integration on the way, here’s what we think of Disney stock.

Disney DIS released its fiscal second-quarter earnings report on May 10, 2023. Here’s Morningstar’s take on what to think of Disney’s earnings and stock.
Disney Stock at A Glance
Fair Value Estimate: $145
Morningstar Rating: 4 stars
Morningstar Uncertainty Rating: High
Morningstar Economic Moat Rating: Wide
What We Thought of Disney Earnings
Although Disney parks posted good growth on the top and bottom lines, overall it was a disappointing quarter for the company because of its direct-to-consumer subscriber losses.
While the DTC segment appears to be on its way to profitability by the end of fiscal 2024, in line with expectations, we think Disney needs to expand that customer base and drive stronger top-line growth to replace declining revenue from linear networks.
Disney’s plans for Hulu could help. While CEO Robert Iger has doubted the value of general entertainment content in the past, he recently announced that Hulu will be integrated into Disney+ in the U.S. market, which mirrors international versions. Disney believes that having one app will promote higher usage and increase advertising opportunities.

Fair Value Estimate for Disney Stock
At a 4-star rating, Disney stock is undervalued compared with our fair value estimate.
Our updated $145 fair value estimate reflects slower subscriber growth and lower losses from streaming. We expect average annual top-line growth of 6% through fiscal 2027. We now project losses for the streaming segment to continue through fiscal 2024, declines for linear advertising over the next five years, and a continued decline in margins for linear networks.
We expect that fiscal 2023 admissions revenue will remain ahead of fiscal 2019, despite consumer worries about the economy and inflation. As a result of delayed movie premieres and theater closures, fiscal 2022 theatrical revenue rebounded to only about 40% of the fiscal 2019 level.
We estimate 12% average annual growth for the DTC segment, as we are modeling strong subscriber growth for Disney+ and Hulu along with further price increases. We now project that Disney-branded services will hit 235 million paid subscribers by the end of fiscal 2027, assuming a continued international rollout and improved penetration in the larger Western markets.
We believe the segment will post its first positive annual operating income in fiscal 2025. We project Disney’s overall operating margin will improve to 21% in fiscal 2027 from 8% in fiscal 2022, as the losses at the DTC segment turn to gains and ongoing margin improvements at the theme parks more than offset the margin decline at linear networks.

Disney price/fair value ratios from 2018 to 2023, with ratios over 1 indicating when the stock is overvalued while ratios below 1 indicate when the stock is undervalued.
Economic Moat Rating
We assign Disney a wide economic moat rating. Its media networks segment and collection of branded businesses have demonstrated strong pricing power in the past decade. We believe the addition of the Fox FOX entertainment assets, acquired in 2019, will continue to help generate excess returns on capital despite operating in the increasingly competitive media and streaming marketplace.
Disney’s television networks remain important pieces in traditional pay-TV bundles. The firm’s network lineup provides distributors not only with general entertainment but also live sports at ESPN and news coverage at ABC—two categories that are keeping many subscribers in the pay-TV orbit. While we expect television subscribers to continue to decline annually, the underlying networks remain profitable, and the cash generated will continue to be reallocated to support Disney’s DTC efforts.

ESPN is the dominant player in U.S. sports entertainment. Its position and brand strength empower it to charge the highest subscriber fees of any cable network, generating durable profits. Disney also owns ABC, one of the four major U.S. national broadcast networks, along with affiliated TV stations in eight markets (including six of the top 10 markets).
The firm’s success at the theatrical box office used to depend heavily on Pixar Animation Studios. However, Disney now has six studios (Walt Disney Pictures, Marvel, Pixar, Lucasfilm, Walt Disney Animation, and 20th Century Studios) that can generate blockbuster films annually. With the incorporation of Fox, Disney now owns 14 of the 20 all-time highest-grossing films at the worldwide box office—10 of which have been released since 2015. The continued strength of the studios and media networks should help drive continued success for the firm’s DTC ambitions for Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+.
Read more about Disney’s moat rating.
Risk and Uncertainty
Based on the competitive linear and streaming media markets Disney operates in, along with the level of advertising and parks revenue that is exposed to the economy and economic cycles, we believe a Morningstar Uncertainty Rating of High is more appropriate than Medium, as it better reflects the volatility we expect Disney investors will face relative to our global coverage. Disney’s results could suffer if the company cannot adapt to the changing media landscape. ESPN garners the highest affiliate fees of any basic cable channel, and decreased pay-TV penetration would slow revenue growth. Disney’s labor relations remain one of its largest environmental, social, and governance risks; the company and its subsidiaries have been subject to a number of lawsuits alleging racial and gender discrimination, sexual assault/harassment, and wage gaps/discrimination.
Read more about Disney’s risk and uncertainty.
DIS Stock Bulls Say
The parks and resorts segment should rebound strongly from the pandemic since families still view the parks as prime vacation destinations.
Disney+ has a long runway for growth both in the United States and internationally. The platform’s original series and its deep, constantly expanding library support that growth.
Although filmmaking is a hit-or-miss business, Disney’s popular franchises and characters reduce this volatility over time. Additionally, the firm’s annual slate generally does not rely on one big picture, reducing the downsides of any flops.
DIS Stock Bears Say
The business model for Disney’s media networks division depends on the continued growth of affiliate fees. Any slowdown in this growth as pay-TV subscribers continue to decline could tremendously harm profitability.
The streaming space is increasingly crowded. Disney may have to keep funding losses in this segment beyond fiscal 2024.
Developing mass-market hit programs can be unpredictable, especially as media fragmentation continues. The race to attract and retain talented creatives has been and will remain very competitive and expensive.

DIS > Why Disney's 'inevitable' move to standalone ESPN streaming service would bring 'little risk, ample reward'
7:02 pm ET May 25, 2023 (MarketWatch)
Print
By Emily Bary
Citi says a standalone ESPN streaming service could help boost the value of Disney's stock
Walt Disney Co. reportedly is "actively preparing" to make ESPN a standalone streaming service, a future that's sparked mixed reactions on Wall Street.
A Wall Street Journal report detailing Disney's (DIS) consideration of ESPN's impending streaming future was one reason behind a downgrade of the company's stock last week, with Macquarie analyst Tim Nollen warning that "it's hard to see how [the move] will be smooth," at least initially.
But Citi Research analyst Jason Bazinet is far more upbeat about the possibility. In his view, investors largely responded with a yawn to the latest report, which Disney hasn't commented on. Bazinet, however, thinks there should have been more cheers.
"Investors view the move to streaming as inevitable," he wrote. "However, at another level, the market's muted reaction is surprising. We believe ESPN's transition to streaming could add $20 per share to Disney's equity value."
See also: Streaming nirvana is about to become more expensive -- and offer less content
From Bazinet's perspective, the transition promises "little risk, ample reward." He reasons that "the profit-maximizing price" for a buffed-up version of ESPN+ that would include standalone ESPN content as well would be $22 a month in an ad-free format.
That average revenue per user "is just above Disney's U.S. linear revenue per sub across all channels," he said. Disney has the potential to generate greater revenue from current ESPN+ subscribers who'd presumably trade up to the enhanced version and also attract other sports lovers who've already parted ways with traditional cable.
ESPN+, which does not include ESPN's live programming, currently costs $9.99 a month and has about 25 million subscribers.
Bazinet suggests that his calculation of a $22-a-month "profit-maximizing price" would yield a price-competitive offering, as it's $3 less than the cost of the YES Network app, which offers access to New York Yankees and Brooklyn Nets programming, and $8 less than the cost of the MSG Network app, which shows New York Knicks, New York Rangers, Buffalo Sabres, New York Islanders and New Jersey Devils content.
He rates Disney's stock a buy with a $125 target price.

I was only addressing it from the legal perspective in terms of Disney's pending legal action against the State of Florida. Not speaking to the morals or substance of the positions. Not to mention the fact that Florida needs Disney far more than Disney needs Florida.
Well I guess some people support and fully back Disney’s sick agenda however, I am fully 100% sure the vast majority of the rest do not and will not!! There’s a special place for those retail investors who fully back, believe in and support Disney’s sick agenda. Glad I’m on the right and moral side. It’s far from retaliation, it’s all about good and sound morals. It’s only a matter of time before Starbucks and Target get a dose of what strong morals are about, just ask Anheuser-Busch.
Disney is being singled out in Florida and is clearly a victim of retaliation. But DIS will weather the storm and it has very strong evidence to support its current lawsuit against the State of Florida. Over 320 companies with numerous locations in Florida signed the petition condemning Governor Desantis' legislation. And a number of companies that have traditionally exhibited far more wokeness than Disney have a huge presence in Florida, e.g. Starbucks has over 840 locations and Target has more than 120 locations in Florida. Yet the State of Florida has unlawfully singled out Disney for targeted retaliation.

20-Yr Disney Employee, Father-of-Two, Arrested On Child Porn Charges After Photos of Children Under 10 Having Sex With Adult Men Were Found On His Computer: “hot teens in mouse ears are a weakness of mine”.
It’s bad enough the Disney Corporation is relentlessly pushing its woke agenda on young children, including its indoctrination of the LGBTQXYZ+ lifestyle on our kids, but curiously, their employees are frequently making news after being arrested and or charged with sex crimes against children.
The twelve suspects all engaged in coercive and lewd behavior towards undercover cops whom they believed to be young children on the internet, and one suspect even rode his bike 10 miles to try and meet the “child.”
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd addressed the media about the horrific individuals they caught from “as far away as Michigan.” Sheriff Grady Judd told horrific stories about the child predators, including giving explicit details about the Disney bus driver.
Watch Sheriff Grady Judd ask the media, “What would an operation be without a Disney employee? We always have a Disney employee!”:
Facing a total of 49 felonies between them all, including traveling to meet a minor for sex, attempted lewd battery, and use of a computer to seduce a child, the suspects are currently being held in jail across several counties.
While Disney makes headlines for its support of LGBTQ+ kids and condemns Florida lawmakers for their recently-passed anti-grooming bill, it’s important to remind the public of Disney’s history of covering up pedophilia within their company. It seems to be on-trend that they want to perpetuate the sexual grooming of children.
Back in 2014, a Disney Cruise Line steward, 36-year-old Ahmed Sofyan, was charged with two counts of molestation and one count of false imprisonment after holding a 13-year-old girl in an unoccupied cabin and molesting her.
When this story was released, an ex-Disney Cruise officer spoke out, reporting a similar instance of child molestation that Disney authorities ordered her not to report just two years prior.
Dawn Taplin, the first female security officer at Disney and second in the entire cruise line industry, was on the cruise ship where this occurred. In 2014, she revealed Disney’s previous molestation cover-up.
In 2012, a Disney cruise ship employee was caught on camera molesting an 11-year-old girl in an elevator. Disney authorities allegedly did not allow security to report the incident.
Taplin interviewed the young victim after she and her grandmother reported the crime to Guest Services. The security officer, who had 17 years of experience as a police officer, found the surveillance footage extremely troubling.
The molestation occurred while the cruise ship was still docked at Port Canaveral in Florida while passengers were still boarding. Taplin recalls that they “weren’t going anywhere for another two hours or so.” Since they were still on U.S. land, Taplin notified the ship’s second-in-command and offered to call her FBI contact. However, she did not get the response she anticipated.
“I was ordered not to make any phone calls, do anything at all. Nothing. Period” recalled Taplin. She said that she was told, “Just keep your mouth shut.”
“If a crime is committed while you’re hooked up anywhere here, it is an American, it is a United States, it is a Florida crime,” said Taplin.
The ship then departed that afternoon with the suspected perpetrator, Milton Braganza, still on board, leaving other children at risk of falling victim to the same employee. Disney had put its reputation ahead of the children’s safety.
The following day, after the cruise ship had left U.S. waters, the Disney Cruise Line finally notified the Port Canaveral police and the U.S. Coast Guard. However, the case was passed on to the Royal Bahamas Police Force.
“In my professional and personal opinion, I think they wanted to get outside the United States limits and get him off the ship in the Bahamas and just leave it alone,” Taplin said.
Once the ship arrived in Nassau, Braganza admitted to the act he was accused of, but the victim’s grandmother chose not to prosecute. It is unclear why the family chose to step away from this case.
Later, Braganza was flown back to his home country of India at the expense of Disney. The company both arranged and paid for his flight.
The former Security Officer believes that “Disney wouldn’t have gotten away with it if they were Americans.”
Now, another Disney employee, Daniel Rivera, who has worked for Walt Disney World Parks and Resorts for 20 years, is under investigation for a Dropbox account he allegedly owns that contains several images of child pornography which, including grown men having sex with children under the age of 10 yrs old. Rivera has been booked at the Orange County Jail.
