News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

I think it could be Josh - we shall see.

I doubt it just based on Chapek's performance to Wall Street.

If Wall Street can’t tell the difference between Chapek and Josh they can’t tell the difference between Wall Street and Main Street USA lol

OH Bob........

TLDR:

- “Powerful Democratic office holder said I should be president”
- “oh look, I’m hosting the living Beatles”
- “I was one of the last people knighted by Queen Elizabeth”

He also says he’s “obsessed” with finding a successor, which is at odds with the rest of the article as he’s clearly obsessed with himself.

Variety needs a fact checker or two…it should be so easy to point out what’s blatantly false

Are you suggesting an article that summarized a podcast with longtime ABC employee and recent Disney Legend recipient interviewing her boss wasn’t rigorously vetted?

They’re probably ticked at THR…they usually are in charge of cleaning the bottom of lord helmet’s shoes

I’ll do the job for 1/10th of Iger’s comp. Just waiting for the call…

I feel for the guy. It's got to be rough on the mind being obsessed with something that you consider urgent for 10 years.

I am not sure who this person is - is it Sean Nyberg’s burner? - but they don’t seem acquainted with the conventional definition of grifting.

Grift: to obtain (money or property) illicitly (as in a confidence game)

The stock is down 31% from where it was five years ago (safely pre-Covid) and only up 10% from where it was ten years ago. It’s a little odd to laud certain granular details of the financial picture of the company without noting that. Who’s the grifter here?

Actually the stock is flat over the past 10 years.

This Duck fellow sure sounds a lot like Nyberg.

And remember - one picture without any context tells the entire parks tale.

I clicked nothing; I read through the insipid screenshots posted here. Not sure how that helps them.

I just saw a video yesterday of the standing ovation for Iger at D23.....it's just sick.

He seemed to focus heavily on revenue, but what about net profit? Adjusted for inflation, net profit is down from the mid/late 2010's highs. So even with ever increasing revenue, likely inflation related, the costs are also increasing which brings up the key thing that investors look for which is growth. Quarterly YOY growth from the end of the pandemic has been minimal at best and is currently trending the wrong direction. There's no upside for investors because there is no percieved growth opportunity for DIS, and that's why the stock has been floundering for the past 6 months.

FTFY. 10 years, if you look long-term and not at the hyper-inflated Covid bubble the stock had for a bit.
