43 percent ownership in Hong Kong Disneyland, 100 percent ownership in Tokyo Disney
Resort as well as Disneyland in both California and Florida. Exhibit 9 summarizes
Disney’s key parks and resort holdings.
Disney revenues at its Parks and Resorts division increased 7 percent in 2008, or
$701 million, to $10.6 billion due to increases of $483 million and $218 million at its
domestic and international resorts, respectively. Domestic Parks and Resorts revenues
increased due to increased guest spending, theme park attendance, and hotel occupancy, as
well as higher sales at Disney Vacation Club. Higher guest spending was due to a higher
average daily hotel room rate, higher average ticket prices, and greater merchandise spend-
ing at both resorts.
Disneyland Resort Paris experienced increased revenues, offset by a decrease at
Hong Kong Disneyland Resort due to lower theme park attendance. Some of the increase
in revenue was due to favorable impact of foreign currency translation (weakening of
the U.S. dollar against the euro). Operating income from the Parks and Resorts
segment increased 11 percent, or by $524 million, to $1.897 billion. Exhibit 10 presents
Disney’s attendance, per capita theme park guest spending, and hotel statistics for its
domestic properties:
