The net profit margin of Walt Disney Company has fluctuated over the past several quarters. In the most recent quarter ending September 30, 2024, the net profit margin was 5.44%, indicating that the company generated a net profit of 5.44% for every dollar of revenue generated. This represents a slight increase compared to the previous quarter.

However, looking further back, the net profit margin was considerably lower in the earlier quarters of 2024 and even negative in the first quarter of 2021. The negative net profit margins in the first and second quarters of 2021 could be attributed to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Disney's operations, particularly its theme parks and entertainment businesses.

It is important to note that fluctuations in the net profit margin can be influenced by various factors, including changes in revenue, operating expenses, and one-time charges. Investors and analysts closely monitor the net profit margin as it reflects the company's profitability and efficiency in managing costs relative to its revenue.

Overall, while the recent uptick in the net profit margin is a positive sign, it is important to track future trends and assess the underlying factors driving the profitability of Walt Disney Company.
