Walt Disney has revised its projected loss from its 37% stake in its India joint venture with Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL), JioStar, to $200 million for the full fiscal year , down from an earlier estimate of $300 million. Disney follows an October-to-September fiscal year.

For the quarter under review, Disney reported an equity loss of $50 million from the India JV, bringing the total for the nine-month period to $186 million. Live Events The company's international linear TV networks were also significantly impacted by the Star India transaction. Revenue fell 58% to $219 million, while operating income declined 92% to $12 million, as Star India operations are no longer consolidated following the formation of the JV. Overall income from equity investees declined by $71 million, falling to $75 million from $146 million in the same quarter last year, primarily due to losses from the India JV. Meanwhile, Disney's direct-to-consumer (DTC) business posted a strong rebound, with operating income rising to $346 million, compared to a $19 million loss in the same quarter a year ago. The company attributed the improvement to growth in subscription revenue, driven by higher pricing, an increase in subscribers, and the absence of Star India subscription revenue post-deconsolidation. For the nine-month period, the company recorded charges totaling $437 million, including $185 million for the impairment of an equity investment, $143 million for goodwill impairment related to Star India, and $109 million for content impairments. In the prior-year period, charges totaled $2.05 billion, primarily due to goodwill impairments related to Star India and its entertainment linear networks. The India joint venture, announced on November 14, 2024, combined Disney's Star-branded entertainment and sports channels and the Disney+ Hotstar service with Reliance's media and entertainment assets under Viacom18. Reliance holds a 56% controlling stake, Disney owns 37%, and Bodhi Tree Systems holds the remaining 7%. Following the formation of the JV, Disney deconsolidated Star India's assets and reclassified its stake as an equity method investment. The company recognized non-cash impairment charges of $1.3 billion in Q2 FY24 and $100 million in Q1 FY25, along with a $200 million non-cash tax charge in Q1 FY25, to reflect the fair value of Star India's assets and liabilities. As part of the agreement, Reliance Industries injected ₹11,500 crore into the joint venture. JioStar reported a net profit of ₹581 crore for the quarter ended June, according to RIL's quarterly financial disclosure. The company recorded an EBITDA of ₹1,017 crore and operating revenue of ₹9,601 crore, driven by the strong performance of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. This came despite continued challenges in the entertainment segment due to reduced FMCG ad spending. RIL said the IPL had delivered its highest-ever revenue across TV and digital during the season.

The now-postponed shows are part of her Studio Sessions residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
