On February 26, 2013, The Walt Disney Company issued the following statement:

The facts are irrefutable: Disney delivered record net income, revenue and earnings per share and exceptional shareholder returns in fiscal 2012. Total shareholder return for the year was 76.3%, compared to 30.2% for the S&P 500.

Disney’s performance during Mr. Iger’s tenure has been nothing short of spectacular, with TSR of 139% that dramatically exceeds the S&P 500’s return of 36%, and 15% growth in diluted EPS on a compounded basis. Disney has delivered results that speak for themselves.
