REVENUES BY OPERATING SEGMENT FOR THE THIRD QUARTER
Resort operating segment revenues increased 7% to € 344.0 million from € 322.4 million in the prior-year quarter.
REVENUES BY OPERATING SEGMENT FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011
Resort operating segment revenues increased 6% to € 891.8 million from € 839.9 million in the prior-year period.
Hotels and Disney Village revenues increased 9% to € 366.0 million from € 334.3 million in the prior-year period, due to a 5% increase in average spending per room, combined with a 2.9 percentage point increase in hotel occupancy. The increase in average spending per room was due to higher daily room rates and spending on food and beverage. The increase in hotel occupancy resulted from 46,000 more room nights sold compared to the prior-year period, due to more guests from the United Kingdom and France staying overnight, and higher group activity.
Other revenues decreased by € 8.9 million to € 28.2 million compared to € 37.1 million in the prior-year period. This decrease was mainly due to lower sponsorship revenues and a legal settlement gain in the prior-year period.
