Walt Disney Co. (DIS) is currently facing a turning point with a new CEO at the helm. Experts highlight the company's strengths, such as its beloved theme parks, growing streaming services, and impressive brand power. However, there are concerns about the company's growth trajectory and the valuation of its assets, particularly in light of increased costs at amusement parks and competition in the media landscape. While some believe the stock is consolidating and has potential for a breakout, others caution against its high valuation and external economic pressures that could impact consumer spending. Overall, many experts see potential for growth and profitability in the long run, especially with expected improvements in streaming and continued success at theme parks, signaling that patience may be rewarded for investors.

Valuation

PEP, 123

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 16/21, Down 42%) Market concerned on streaming business capital expenditures. Profit recover post Covid-19 not happening as quickly as anticipated. Content expenses very high and not coming down. Business should turn around in 2023. Still owns stock in the company and will continue to hold. Theme park attendance strong, but inflation creating difficult margin growth

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 02/21, Down 46%) 41% of revenue comes from parks, and these are not full steam ahead yet. Good job on media content. Cashflow will go down a fair bit this year, next year expected to be 6.8B. Balance sheet looks good, can get better if cut costs. 21x earnings. Great brand. He'd buy here.

DON'T BUY

His long-term charts over 35 years show 3 distinct phases. Early phase grew quickly, second one slowed down but still OK. Third phase is flattening. Balance sheet isn't going anywhere. Valuations will follow growth rates. Price to book has fallen steadily. Streaming competition pressures margins. Too early to invest.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Better valued here around $100, streaming continues to do well. Though streaming's off the pandemic boil, DIS has a diversified foundation. Good opportunity of possible sports gambling option. On his short list. He'd buy in high $80s or low 90s.

HOLD

Believes company is great and has good prospects. Worried about macro risks affecting company. Recession would be bad for travel and theme park use. Streaming business is strong and will grow.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 11/21, Down 34%) Recently added to position and will continue to hold. Likes company and believes has excellent prospects going forward. Disney has fasted growing streaming business in the world. Theme parks will continue to see rise in attendance. Lots of room for expansion of franchises. Sees lots of upside and is expecting a double in share price.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Successful pivot into streaming good for the business. Challenges with cable subscriptions. Large amount of package. Waiting for shares to fall before buying. Unsure on prospects for business the next 2-3 years. Would prefer owning shares in Netflix.

BUY

Shares down on market recent selloff. Good time to buy. Strong content with years of entertainment value. Theme parks will grow as people travel after Covid-19. Streaming service will continue to grow. Good long term business and believes in future of business.

HOLD

Prefers NFLX for the entertainment portion. Parks are great assets, but not making money now. Tough time on Disney+. Stopped dividend. Balance sheet not as good as it was. Not a screaming buy, but if you own it, long term you'll do fine.

TOP PICK

World-recognized. Gaining market share in direct-to-consumer streaming. Disney+ is doing well. Total subscriber base rivals NFLX, which is astounding given that NFLX has been around longer. Parks and resorts expected to rebound nicely. Studio segment content will help. Shares down 50%, good value. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $145.43)

TOP PICK

It's been beaten up badly, down 50% this year, but it offers growth. The theme parks are surprisingly doing well and the margins are a lot better (maybe the parks are charging more). Their streaming is massive, being the #2 player after Netflix and boasting a fine library (Star Wars, Pixar). Families will stick with Disney+ or add it to their homnes. Content is king. Nobody cross-sells better than Disney. Historically, it's the great growth stock. (Analysts’ price target is $146.34)

Unspecified

It makes lots of money on its parks which should grow. Has a good streaming business - owns Marvel, Pixar, etc. which covers all ages, children to adults. Acquired Fox (20th century) and has lots of room to cut costs in this area. Netflix doesn't own as much content as Disney.

BUY

One of the best performers in the Dow Q3 Down only 0.1% in Q3. It's been slammed and in the dog house for ages because of its streaming, but Disney is not only about the streaming, but also the theme parks, films (both doing well) and ESPN (which could partner with a gambling house, so there are opportunities here). He's down in his holding, but this will be much higher in the future. He likes it.

BUY

Very bullish here. He bought shares last week. Shares have been this cheap--Shanghai's park will reopen, and their balance sheet is much improved.

TOP PICK

Integrated into movies, TV, streaming, toys, merchandise, theme parks. Excellent franchise value good for earning revenue. Large amounts of content already produced. Ad supported version of Disney Plus launching. Raising pricing next year will help bottom line. Current share price presenting good buying opportunity for investors.
