雖然第二季度的銷售額增長了21%，達到180億美元，但迪士尼的利潤卻因為旗下12個主題公園的關閉以及與啟動迪士尼+流媒體服務相關的巨額成本而遭受重創(chuàng)。

該公司的公園部門、體驗部門和產(chǎn)品部門受到此次疫情的打擊尤為嚴重。

"Disney has repeatedly shown that it is exceptionally resilient, bolstered by the quality of our storytelling and the strong affinity consumers have for our brands," Chapek said in a statement.

查佩克在一份聲明中說：“迪士尼一再表明，它的適應力非常強，這得益于我們講故事的質(zhì)量以及消費者對我們品牌的強烈親和力。”

"As someone who's been around for a while, and led this company through really tough days over the last fifteen years... I have absolute confidence in our ability to get through this challenging period, and recover successfully," Iger said.

“作為一個在公司工作了一段時間的人，在過去的15年里帶領公司度過了非常艱難的日子……我絕對相信我們有能力度過這一具有挑戰(zhàn)性的時期，并成功地恢復。” 伊格爾說道。
